AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
To date synthetic biology approaches involving creation of functional genetic modules are used in a wide range of organisms. In plants, such approaches are used both for research in the field of functional genomics and to increase the yield of agricultural crops. Of particular interest are methods that allow controlling genetic apparatus of the plants at post-translational level, which allow reducing non-targeted effects from interference with the plant genome. This review discusses recent advances in the plant synthetic biology for regulation of the plant metabolism at posttranslational level and highlights their future directions.

Linsitinib Decreases Thyrotropin-Induced Thyroid Hormone Synthesis by Inhibiting Crosstalk Between Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Receptors in Human Thyrocytes and in Mice.

Thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) have been shown to crosstalk in primary cultures of human thyrocytes (hThyros) and Graves' orbital fibroblasts. The phenomenon of TSHR/IGF-1R crosstalk has been largely studied in the pathogenesis of thyroid eye disease (TED) in human orbital fibroblasts. Here, we investigated the effects of inhibiting the IGF-1R-mediated contribution to crosstalk by linsitinib (Lins), a small-molecule IGF-1R kinase inhibitor, on TSH-induced regulation of thyroperoxidase (TPO) and thyroglobulin (TG) mRNAs and proteins in hThyros and on TPO and TG mRNAs and free thyroxine (fT4) levels in mice.

PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have received regulatory approval for the treatment of several tumors, including prostate cancer (PCa), and demonstrate remarkable results in the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients characterized by defects in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes. Preclinical studies showed that DNA repair genes (DRG) other than HRR genes may have therapeutic value in the context of PARPi. To this end, we performed multiple CRISPR/Cas9 screens in PCa cell lines using a custom sgRNA library targeting DRG combined with PARPi treatment.

Objectives: To update the first-line conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) prescribing pattern, describe change and variation across demographical and geographical factors in the Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) population, and identify individual and hospital factors associated with it.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included newly diagnosed RA adult patients from 1 May 2018-1 April 2023 in the UK. We used adjusted multinomial logistic regression with random effect to explore associations with different first-line csDMRAD prescription and to account for hospital-level clustering.
Protein adsorption to poly(ethylenimine)-modified Sepharose FF: IX. Further studies on counterion effects and behavior in therapeutic protein separation.

Our previous studies on protein adsorption onto anion-exchangers of poly(ethylenimine) (PEI)-grafted Sepharose FF (PEI-Sepharose) proved their significantly improved performance over the commercial nongrafting anion-exchangers such as Q Sepharose FF, and it was found the protein adsorption behavior on PEI-Sepharose was more sensitive to counterions (Cl, SCN, HPO and SO). However, the complicated role of counterions has not been well interpreted due to their distinct chemical and physical characteristics. Thus, we have further studied the counterion effects by adding two halide ions (F and Br) to explore the effects of the three halide ions on bovine serum albumin adsorption and the results were compared with previous data.

An efficient synthesis of a series of uracil analogous was performed to obtain new potential anticancer agents. The cytotoxic effect of the synthesized derivatives was assessed in vitro against three cancer cell lines, namely hepatic cancer (HepG-2), colon cancer (HCT-116), and breast cancer (MCF-7). Among the tested compounds, 5, 11 and 15 stood as potent uracil derivatives with pan cytotoxicity against the 3 cell lines out-performing the reference compound 5-FU.
