Background: Cell membrane chromatography (CMC) is a biochromatography with a dual function of recognition and separation, offering a distinct advantage in screening bioactive compounds from Chinese medicines (CMs). Yindan Xinnaotong soft capsule (YD), a CM formulation, has been widely utilized in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. However, a comprehensive mapping of the myocardial protective active compounds remains elusive.

Purpose: To establish a stable and efficient 2D H9c2/CMC-RPLC-MS system, and to utilize it for screening the active compounds of YD that are associated with myocardial protection.

Methods: An imidazole-modified silica gel exhibiting high modification efficiency and protein binding capacity was synthesized to enhance the longevity and efficiency of H9c2/CMC. Subsequently, the potentially bioactive compounds of YD were screened by integrating the 2D H9c2/CMC-RPLC-MS system with a high-content component knockout strategy. Additionally, an RNA-seq approach was employed to predict the targets and mechanisms of YD and the active compounds for myocardial protection.

Results: The developed imidazole-modified H9c2/CMC exhibits remarkable selectivity, specificity, stability, and reproducibility. Following three rounds of screening, a total of 24 potential myocardial protective compounds were identified, comprising 8 flavonoids, 8 phenolic acids, 4 saponins, and 4 tanshinones. Bioinformatic analysis utilizing RNA-seq indicated that the FOXO signaling pathway, with FOXO3 identified as a key target, plays a significant role in the cardioprotective effects of YD. Furthermore, all 24 screened compounds exhibit strong binding affinities with FOXO3 evaluated by molecular docking.

Conclusion: A highly stable and efficient 2D imidazole-modified H9c2/CMC-RPLC-MS system was developed, allowing for the screening of potentially active compounds from YD. Through the integration of the bioinformatic analysis, the pharmacodynamic foundation of YD for myocardial protection has been comprehensively characterized.

With current treatments addressing only a fraction of pathogens and new viral threats constantly evolving, there is a critical need to expand our existing therapeutic arsenal. To speed the rate of discovery and better prepare against future threats, we establish a high-throughput platform capable of screening compounds against 40 diverse viral proteases simultaneously. This multiplex approach is enabled by using cellular biosensors of viral protease activity combined with DNA-barcoding technology, as well as several design innovations that increase assay sensitivity and correct for plate-to-plate variation.

The I38T substitution in the influenza virus polymerase-acidic (PA) subunit is a resistance marker of concern for treatment with the antiviral baloxavir marboxil (BXM). Thus, monitoring PA/I38T mutations is of clinical importance. Here, we developed three rapid and sensitive assays for the detection and monitoring of the PA/I38T mutation.

Cellular senescence contributes to a variety of pathologies associated with aging and is implicated as a cellular state in which cancer cells can survive treatment. Reported senolytic drug treatments act through varying molecular mechanisms, but heterogeneous efficacy across the diverse contexts of cellular senescence indicates a need for predictive biomarkers of senolytic activity. Using multi-parametric analyses of commonly reported molecular features of the senescent phenotype, we assayed a variety of models, including malignant and nonmalignant cells, using several triggers of senescence induction and found little univariate predictive power of these traditional senescence markers to identify senolytic drug sensitivity.

The accumulation of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in macrophages leads to the formation of foam cells and atherosclerosis development. Reducing the uptake of oxLDL in macrophages decreases the incidence and progression of atherosclerosis. Four distinct single-strand DNA sequences, namely, AP07, AP11, AP25, and AP29, were selected that demonstrated specific binding to distinct regions of oxidized apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100; the protein component of oxLDL) with low HDOCK scores.

A low-cost and renewable magnetite-pine bark (MPB) sorbent was evaluated in continuous-flow systems for the removal of various pharmaceuticals from municipal wastewater effluent following membrane bioreactor (MBR) treatment. A 33-day small-scale column test (bed volume: 791 cm) was conducted using duplicate columns of biochar (BC, Novocarbo) and activated carbon (AC, ColorSorb) as reference for two columns of BC and MPB in order to compare the efficiency of AC and MPB. After the small-scale column test, the pharmaceutical concentrations were generally below the detection limit.
