Highly sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering detection of adenosine triphosphate based on core-satellite assemblies.

Anal Methods

Lab of Biosystem and Microanalysis, State Key Laboratory of Bioreactor Engineering, East China University of Science and Technology, Shanghai, 200237, China.

As an important small molecule, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) plays an important role in the regulation of cell metabolism and supplies energy for various biochemical reactions in organisms. We herein developed a sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensor for highly specific detection of ATP using core-satellite assemblies. To construct the aptamer-based biosensor, a known ATP binding aptamer was divided into two segments.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS) is increasingly recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease that significantly compromises vascular health and acts as a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases. Advancements in lipidomics and metabolomics have unveiled the complex role of fatty acid metabolism (FAM) in both healthy and pathological states. However, the specific roles of fatty acid metabolism-related genes (FAMGs) in shaping therapeutic approaches, especially in AS, remain largely unexplored and are a subject of ongoing research.

Human primed pluripotent stem cells are capable of generating all the embryonic lineages. However, their extraembryonic trophectoderm potentials are limited. It remains unclear how to expand their developmental potential to trophectoderm lineages.

The important role of the histone acetyltransferases p300/CBP in cancer and the promising anticancer effects of p300/CBP inhibitors.

Cell Biol Toxicol

January 2025

Department of Ultrasound, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, 110004, Shenyang, Liaoning, China.

Histone acetyltransferases p300 (E1A-associated protein p300) and CBP (CREB binding protein), collectively known as p300/CBP due to shared sequence and functional synergy, catalyze histone H3K27 acetylation and consequently induce gene transcription. p300/CBP over-expression or over-activity activates the transcription of oncogenes, leading to cancer cell growth, resistance to apoptosis, tumor initiation and development. The discovery of small molecule inhibitors targeting p300/CBP histone acetyltransferase activity, bromodomains, dual inhibitors of p300/CBP and BRD4 bromodomains, as well as proteolysis-targeted-chimaera p300/CBP protein degraders, marks significant progress in cancer therapeutics.

Pectin is a major component of plant cells walls. The extent to which pectin chains crosslink with one another determines crucial properties including cell wall strength, porosity, and the ability of small, biologically significant molecules to access the cell. Despite its importance, significant gaps remain in our comprehension, at the molecular level, of how pectin cross-links influence the mechanical and physical properties of cell walls.
