Objective: This study was aimed to explore the effect of a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor Chidamide on apoptosis of human multiple myeloma(MM) cells and its relevance to DNA damage response(DDR).
Methods: The cell proliferation was detected by MTT method, apoptosis and cell cycle distribution were analyzed by flow cytometry, the expression levels of targeted proteins were detected by Western blot, the DNA damage response was blocked by ATM kinase inhibitor KU-55933.
Results: Chidamide inhibited RPMI 8226 cell proliferation in dose- and time-dependent manner and its IC50 values of 24,48,72 h were 9.6, 6 and 2.8 µmol/L respectively. Chidamide induced cell cycle arrest of RPMI 8226 cells in G0/G1 phase by upregulating the expression of P21. Chidamide triggered caspase-3 dependent apoptosis and upregulated expression of DDR-related proteins including γH2AX, pATM in RPMI 8226 cells. Pretreatment with ATM kinase inhibitor KU-55933 down-regulated expression of DDR related proteins induced by chidamide, thereby inhibiting DNA damage response and finally resulting in suppression of apoptotic cell death.
Conclusion: Proliferative inhibtion, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of multiple myeloma cells induced by chidamide involve DDR.

Photoresponsive drug delivery systems have great potential for improved cancer therapy. However, most of the currently available drug-delivery nanosystems are relatively large and require light excitation with low tissue penetration. Here, we designed a near infrared responsive drug delivery system by loading [Ru(terpyridine)(dipyridophenazine)(HO)] (Ru(tpy)DPPZ) in azobenzene-modified mesoporous silica coated NaGdF:Nd/Yb/Tm upconversion nanoparticles (azo-mSiO-UCNPs).

Purpose: Acanthamoeba species are eucaryotic protozoa found predominantly in soil and water. They cause ulceration and vision loss in the cornea (Acanthamoeba keratitis) and central nervous system (CNS) infection involving the lungs (granulomatous amoebic encephalitis). Antiparasitic drugs currently used in the treatment of infections caused by Acanthamoeba species are not effective at the desired level in some anatomical regions such as the eye and CNS.

Emerging mercury-free ultraviolet (UV) sources, such as krypton chloride excimer (KrCl*) lamps and UV light emitting diodes (UV-LEDs), emit diverse wavelengths with distinct inactivation mechanisms. The combined application has the potential to improve disinfection effectiveness through synergism. In this study, a mini-fluidic photoreaction system equipped with a KrCl* lamp (222 nm) and a strip of UV-LEDs (275 nm) was developed, which could individually/simultaneously deliver accurate UV radiation(s) at 222 nm (0.

The ability to accurately quantify biological age could help monitor and control healthy aging. Epigenetic clocks have emerged as promising tools for estimating biological age, yet they have been developed from heterogeneous bulk tissues, and are thus composites of two aging processes, one reflecting the change of cell-type composition with age and another reflecting the aging of individual cell-types. There is thus a need to dissect and quantify these two components of epigenetic clocks, and to develop epigenetic clocks that can yield biological age estimates at cell-type resolution.
