Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world with aberrantly expressed glycans. The different types and stages still limit a comprehensive method in the prediagnosis of BC patients. In this research, a synthetic boronic acid-disulfide (BASS) probe has been developed for the two steps of O → S → N acyl transfer in glycoprotein recognition and labeling. The specificity and sensitivity of this method have been carefully studied in the case of immunoglobulin G, and the labeling efficiency was determined up to 60%. The BASS-functionalized slide is a powerful platform for monitoring the alteration of glycan patterns in human sera. Compared to the samples from healthy individuals, sera of BC patients gave specific patterns to eight lectins binding. The BASS-directed glycoprotein strategy promises a rapid sensing platform for a high-throughput screening of clinical BC samples and could be easily applied to other cancer prediagnoses.

Low-grade glioma (LGG), a common primary tumor, mainly originates from astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Increasing evidence has shown that peroxisomes function in the regulation of tumorigenesis and development of cancer. However, the prognostic value of peroxisome-related genes (PRGs) in LGG has not been reported.

We investigated the effects of dietary delivered self-DNA in the model insect . Self-DNA administration resulted in low but significant lethality in Drosophila larvae and considerably extended the fly developmental time. This was characterized by the abnormal persistence of the larvae in the L2 and L3 stages, which largely accounted for the average 72 h delay observed in pupariation, as compared to controls.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a public health concern and the second most common disease worldwide. This is due to genetic coding and is influenced by environmental aspects, in which the gut microbiota plays a significant role. The purpose of this study was to compare the microbiota makeup of CRC patients with that of healthy control and to identify upregulated and downregulated proteins and metabolites in CRC patients.

Peroxisomes are rapidly degraded during amino acid and oxygen deprivation by a type of selective autophagy called pexophagy. However, how damaged peroxisomes are detected and removed from the cell is poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that the peroxisomal matrix protein import machinery may serve double duty as a quality control machinery, where they are directly involved in activating pexophagy.
