Jumonji-C domain-containing protein 6 (JMJD6) is a human 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)/Fe(ii)-dependent oxygenase catalysing post-translational C5 hydroxylation of multiple lysine residues, including in the bromodomain-containing proteins BRD2, BRD3 and BRD4. The role(s) of JMJD6-catalysed substrate hydroxylation are unclear. JMJD6 is important in development and JMJD6 catalysis may promote cancer. We report solid-phase extraction coupled to mass spectrometry assays monitoring JMJD6-catalysed hydroxylation of BRD2-4 derived oligopeptides containing multiple lysyl residues. The assays enabled determination of apparent steady-state kinetic parameters for 2OG, Fe(ii), l-ascorbate, O and BRD substrates. The JMJD6 for O was comparable to that reported for the structurally related 2OG oxygenase factor inhibiting hypoxia-inducible factor-α (FIH), suggesting potential for limitation of JMJD6 activity by O availability in cells, as proposed for FIH and some other 2OG oxygenases. The new assays will help development of small-molecule JMJD6 inhibitors for functional assignment studies and as potential cancer therapeutics.

Background: Differential diagnosis of pleural effusions poses a considerable challenge in clinical practice. In this study, we explored biomarkers in pleural fluid for distinguishing tuberculosis, malignant, and parapneumonic pleural effusion patients.
Methods: A total of 166 patients with exudative pleural effusion were collected, including 86 patients with tuberculosis pleural effusion (TPE), 52 patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE), and 28 patients with parapneumonic effusion (PE).

Cardiac dysfunction is a serious complication of sepsis-induced multiorgan failure in intensive care units and is characterized by an uncontrolled immune response to overwhelming infection. Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), as a part of the innate immune system, play a crucial role in the inflammatory process of heterogeneous cardiac disorders. However, the role of ILC2 in regulating sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction and its underlying mechanism remain unknown.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are emerging as a promising candidate for large-scale energy storage, offering enhanced safety and low costs. Nevertheless, the disordered growth of zinc dendrites has resulted in low coulombic efficiency and the dangers of short circuits, limiting the commercialization of ZIBs. In this study, a planar growth of zinc along the (002) direction is achieved by regulating the moderate initial stacking pressure during cell cycling and facilitating a larger zinc deposition particle size.

Background: Diabetic wounds pose significant clinical challenges due to impaired healing processes, often resulting in chronic, nonhealing ulcers. Asiaticoside (AC), a natural triterpene derivative from , has demonstrated notable anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. However, the synergistic effects of nitric oxide (NO)-a recognized promoter of wound healing-combined with AC in treating diabetic wounds remain inadequately explored.
