Cisplatin (CP), which is a conventional cancer chemotherapeutic drug, induces apoptosis by modulating a diverse array of gene regulatory mechanisms. However, cisplatin-mediated changes in the mA methylome are unknown. We employed an mA miCLIP-seq approach to investigate the effect of mA methylation marks under cisplatin-mediated apoptotic conditions on HeLa cells. Our high-resolution approach revealed numerous mA marks on 972 target mRNAs with an enrichment on 132 apoptotic mRNAs. We tracked the fate of differentially methylated candidate mRNAs under knockdown and cisplatin treatment conditions. Polysome profile analyses revealed perturbations in the translational efficiency of and transcripts. Congruently, amounts were dependent on . Additionally, cisplatin-mediated apoptosis was sensitized by knockdown. These results suggest that apoptotic pathways are modulated by mA methylation events and that the axis modulates cisplatin-mediated apoptosis in HeLa cells.

Several transcription inhibitors have been developed as cancer therapies. However, they show modest clinical activity, highlighting that our understanding of the cellular response to transcriptional inhibition remains incomplete. Here we report that potent inhibitors of transcription not only impact mRNA output but also markedly impair mRNA transcript localization and nuclear export.

The electrochemical biosensor has brought a paradigm shift in the field of sensing due to its fast response and easy operability. The performance of electrochemical sensors can be modified by coupling them with various metal oxides, nanomaterials, and nanocomposites. Hydrogen peroxide is a short-lived reactive oxygen species that plays a crucial role in various physiological and biological processes.

Heavy metal contamination and pesticide residues pose significant threats to human health and ecosystems. Despite its broad applications, fluorescence imaging technology often struggles in complex ecological and biological environments due to disadvantages of background autofluorescence and low quantum yield. This study introduced a near-infrared (NIR) multifunctional "off-on-off" isophorone-based fluorescent bio-probe, DHB, characterized by a high fluorescence quantum yield (10.

Mitochondrial carrier homolog 2 (MTCH2) is a regulator of apoptosis, mitochondrial dynamics, and metabolism. Loss of MTCH2 results in mitochondrial fragmentation, an increase in whole-body energy utilization, and protection against diet-induced obesity. In this study, we used temporal metabolomics on HeLa cells to show that MTCH2 deletion results in a high ATP demand, an oxidized cellular environment, and elevated utilization of lipids, amino acids, and carbohydrates, accompanied by a decrease in several metabolites.
