One new perhydrobenzannulated 5,5-spiroketal sesquiterpene, pleurospiroketal F (1), as well as six new modified bisabolene sesquiterpenes pleurotins A-F (2-7) were isolated from solid-state fermentation of Pleurotus citrinopileatus. The structures of compounds 1-7 were determined by NMR and MS spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, while the absolute configurations of 3-7 were assigned using the in situ dimolybdenum circular dichroism method and circular dichroism data comparison. Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B plays a crucial role as a negative regulator of the insulin-dependent signal cascades. Therefore, the protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitor can be used for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Compounds 2 and 6 showed moderate inhibitory effects on protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B with IC50 s of 32.1 µM and 30.5 µM, respectively. The kinetic study confirmed compound 2 to be a noncompetitive inhibitor. Compounds 1-7 did not show cytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines (IC50 > 50 µM).

Blood storage lesion induces cytosolic and membrane changes driven in part by hemoglobin (Hb) oxidation reactions within red blood cells (RBCs). A novel gel formulation containing the antioxidant curcuminoids in a biocompatible solvent system was used to deliver curcumin into RBCs. Incubation of peroxide treated RBCs stored in PBS with curcumin gel led to a reduction in prooxidant ferrylHb and recovery in ATP.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is prevalent in adults and is characterized by the accumulation of mature B cells in the blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleens. Recent progress in therapy and the introduction of targeted treatments [inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTKi) or inhibitor of anti-apoptotic B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2i) protein (venetoclax)] in place of chemoimmunotherapy have significantly improved the outcomes of patients with CLL. These advancements have shifted the importance of traditional predictive markers, leading to a greater focus on resistance genes and reducing the significance of mutations, such as TP53 and del(17p).

Clinical Laboratory, Hebei General Hospital, Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China.
Objective: To explore the influence of SALL4 in cardiac fibroblasts on the progression of myocardial infarction.
Methods: Analysis of genes specifically expressed in myocardial infarction by bioinformatics methods; The impact of SALL4 on myocardial infarction was assessed using mouse ultrasound experiments and Masson staining; The effect of SALL4 on the expression levels of collagen-I and collagen-III in myocardial tissue was examined by immunohistochemical staining; The migration ability of cardiac fibroblasts was evaluated using a Transwell assay; The proliferative ability of cardiac fibroblasts was tested using a CCK-8 assay; The relative fluorescence intensity of α-SMA and CTGF in cardiac fibroblasts were checked through immunofluorescence staining experiment; The expression of SALL4, DOT1L, H3K79me2, P53, SHP2, YAP, nucleus-YAP, collagen-I, α-SMA, CTGF, and PAI-1 in myocardial tissues or cardiac fibroblasts was detected using western blot analysis.
Results: SALL4-specific high expression in myocardial infarction; SALL4 intensified the alterations in the heart structure of mice with myocardial infarction and worsened the fibrosis of myocardial infarction; SALL4 also promoted the expression of SALL4, DOT1L, H3K79me2, P53, SHP2, YAP, nucleus-YAP, collagen-I, collagen-III, α-SMA, CTGF, and PAI-1 in myocardial infarction tissues and cardiac fibroblasts; Subsequently, SALL4 could enhance the immunofluorescence intensity of α-SMA and CTGF; Moreover, SALL4 could promote the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts.
SPRTN metalloprotease participates in repair of ROS-mediated DNA-protein crosslinks.
Sci Rep

Department of Medicinal Chemistry, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, 55455, USA.
Exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), unusually bulky DNA lesions that block replication and transcription and play a role in aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative disorders. Repair of DPCs depends on the coordinated efforts of proteases and DNA repair enzymes to cleave the protein component of the lesion to smaller DNA-peptide crosslinks which can be processed by tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterases 1 and 2, nucleotide excision and homologous recombination repair pathways. DNA-dependent metalloprotease SPRTN plays a role in DPC repair, and SPRTN-deficient mice exhibit an accelerated aging phenotype and develop liver cancer early in life.
