| 1 | Blockade of Tim-3 Pathway Ameliorates Interferon-γ Production from Hepatic CD8^+ T Cells in a Mouse Model of Hepatitis B Virus Infection显示文摘T cell immunoglobulin-and mucin-domain-containing molecule-3(Tim-3) has been reported to participate in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. However,whether Tim-3 is involved in hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection remains unknown. Here,we studied the expression and function of Tim-3 in a hydrodynamics-based mouse model of HBV infection. A significant increase of Tim-3 expression on hepatic T lymphocytes,especially on CD8+ T cells,was demonstrated in HBV model mice from day 7 to day 18. After Tim-3 knockdown by specific shRNAs,significantly increased IFN-γ production from hepatic CD8+ T cells in HBV model mice was observed. Very interestingly,we found Tim-3 expression on CD8+ T cells was higher in HBV model mice with higher serum anti-HBs production. Moreover,Tim-3 knockdown influenced anti-HBs production in vivo. Collectively,our data suggested that Tim-3 might act as a potent regulator of antiviral T-cell responses in HBV infection. | Ying Ju Nan Hou Xiaoning Zhang Di Zhao Ying Liu Jinjin Wang Fang Luan Wei Shi Faliang Zhu Wensheng Sun Lining Zhang Chengjiang Gao Lifen Gao Xiaohong Liang Chunhong Ma | 2009 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2009,6,1: | 19 |
| 2 | Recent developments in nanofiltration membranes based on nanomaterials显示文摘Nanofiltration membranes are the core elements for nanofiltration process. The chemical structures and physical properties of nanofiltration membranes determine water permeability, solute selectivity, mechanical/thermal stability, and antifouling properties, which greatly influence the separation efficiency and operation cost in nanofiltration applications. In recent years, a great progress has been made in the development of high performance nanofiltration membranes based on nanomaterials. Considering the increasing interest in this field, this paper reviews the recent studies on the nanofiltration membranes comprising various nanomaterials, including the metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, carbon-based nanomaterials, metal–organic frameworks(MOFs), water channel proteins, and organic micro/nanoparticles. Finally, a perspective is given on the further exploitation of advanced nanomaterials and novel strategy for fabricating nano-based nanofiltration membranes. Moreover,the development of precision instruments and simulation techniques is necessary for the characterization of membrane microstructure and investigation of the separation and antifouling mechanism of nanofiltration membranes prepared with nanomaterials. | Yanli Ji Weijie Qian Yawei Yu Quanfu An Lifen Liu Yong Zhou Congjie Gao | 2017 | Chinese Journal of Chemical Engineering2017,25,11: | 12 |

| 4 | Increased Tim-3 expression alleviates liver injury by regulating macrophage activation in MCD-induced NASH mice显示文摘As an immune checkpoint,Tim-3 plays roles in the regulation of both adaptive and innate immune cells including macrophages and is greatly involved in chronic liver diseases.However,the precise roles of Tim-3 in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)remain unstated.In the current study,we analyzed Tim-3 expression on different subpopulations of liver macrophages and further investigated the potential roles of Tim-3 on hepatic macrophages in methionine and choline-deficient diet(MCD)-induced NASH mice.The results of flow cytometry demonstrated the significantly increased expression of Tim-3 on all detected liver macrophage subsets in MCD mice,including F4/80^(+)CD11b^(+),F4/80^(+)CD68^(+),and F4/80^(+)CD169^(+)macrophages.Remarkably,Tim-3 knockout(KO)significantly accelerated MCD-induced liver steatosis,displaying higher serum ALT,larger hepatic vacuolation,more liver lipid deposition,and more severe liver fibrosis.Moreover,compared with wild-type C57BL/6 mice,Tim-3 KO MCD mice demonstrated an enhanced expression of NOX2,NLRP3,and caspase-1 p20 together with increased generation of IL-1βand IL-18 in livers.In vitro studies demonstrated that Tim-3 negatively regulated the production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and related downstream pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion of IL-1βand IL-18 in macrophages.Exogenous administration of N-Acetyl-L-cysteine(NAC),a small molecular inhibitor of ROS,remarkably suppressed caspase-1 p20 expression and IL-1βand IL-18 production in livers of Tim-3 KO mice,thus significantly reducing the severity of steatohepatitis induced by MCD.In conclusion,Tim-3 is a promising protector in MCD-induced steatohepatitis by controlling ROS and the associated pro-inflammatory cytokine production in macrophages. | Xianhong Du Zhuanchang Wu Yong Xu Yuan Liu Wen Liu Tixiao Wang Chunyang Li Cuijuan Zhang Fan Yi Lifen Gao Xiaohong Liang Chunhong Ma | 2019 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2019,16,11: | 9 |
| 5 | Hepatitis B virus X protein modulates the apoptosis of hepatoma cell line induced by TRAIL显示文摘The purpose of this study is to observe the effects of HBx on the apoptosis of hepatoma cells induced by TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and to study prelimi- nary molecular mechanisms for its effects. In order to set up a model in vitro, BEL7402-HBx cell line, stably expressing HBx mRNA, was established by stable transfection of pcDNA-HBx, which contains HBx gene, into hepatoma cell line BEL7402. Control cell line BEL7402-cDNA3, stably transfected with pcDNA3, was set up simultaneously as a control. Trypan blue exclusion test, caspase 3 activity detection and TUNEL assay were performed to detect the apoptosis of BEL7402, BEL7402-cDNA3, BEL7402-HBx induced by TRAIL. The expression of TRAIL recep- tors in three groups was analyzed by Flow cytometry. In addition, phosphorothioated antisense oligonucleotide against the translation initial region of HBx gene (PS-asODNs/HBx) was used to block the expression of HBx in HepG2.2.15 cells and to further confirm the effects of HBx on TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Trypan blue exclusion test indicated that TRAIL had a dose-dependent cytotoxicity on BEL7402, BEL7402-cDNA3 and BEL7402-HBx cells. Under treatment of the same concentration of TRAIL, BEL7402-HBx had a higher apoptosis rate and a higher level of Caspase 3 activation than BEL7402 and BEL7402-cDNA3. TUENL assay showed that the apoptosis rate of BEL7402-HBx induced by 10 μg/L TRAIL was 41.4%±7.2%, signifi- cantly higher than that of BEL7402 and BEL7402-cDNA3 cells. Blockade of HBx expression in Hep G2.2.15 cells partly inhibited the apoptosis induced by TRAIL. The introduction or blockade of HBx did not change the expression pattern of TRAIL receptors. The present study firstly con- firms the effects of HBx on TRAIL- induced apoptosis from two different points and it is not re- lated with the expression level of TRAIL receptors. This would be useful to further clarify the roles of imbalanced apoptosis in pathogenesis of Hepatitis B and related hepatocellular carcinoma. | LIANG Xiaohong 1 , SUN Wensheng 1 , GAO Lifen 1 , MA Chunhong 1 , HAN Lihui 1 & CHEN Youhai 2 1.

| 7 | Hepatitis B virus evades immune recognition via RNA adenosine deaminase ADAR1-mediated viral RNA editing in hepatocytes显示文摘HBV is considered as a“stealth”virus that does not invoke interferon(IFN)responses;however,the mechanisms by which HBV bypasses innate immune recognition are poorly understood.In this study,we identified adenosine deaminases acting on RNA 1(ADAR1),which is a key factor in HBV evasion from IFN responses in hepatocytes.Mechanically,ADAR1 interacted with HBV RNAs and deaminated adenosine(A)to generate inosine(I),which disrupted host immune recognition and thus promoted HBV replication.Loss of ADAR1 or its deficient deaminase activity promoted IFN responses and inhibited HBV replication in hepatocytes,and blocking the IFN signaling pathways released the inhibition of HBV replication caused by ADAR1 deficiency.Notably,the HBV X protein(HBx)transcriptionally promoted ADAR1 expression to increase the threshold required to trigger intrinsic immune activation,which in turn enhanced HBV escape from immune recognition,leading to persistent infection.Supplementation with 8-azaadenosine,an ADAR1 inhibitor,efficiently enhanced liver immune activation to promote HBV clearance in vivo and in vitro.Taken together,our results delineate a molecular mechanism by which HBx promotes ADAR1-derived HBV immune escape and suggest a targeted therapeutic intervention for HBV infection. | Liyuan Wang Yang Sun Xiaojia Song Zehua Wang Yankun Zhang Ying Zhao Xueqi Peng Xiaodong Zhang Chunyang Li Chengjiang Gao Nailin Li Lifen Gao Xiaohong Liang Zhuanchang Wu Chunhong Ma | 2021 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2021,18,8: | 2 |
| 8 | CUL4B facilitates HBV replication by promoting HBx stabilization显示文摘Objective:Hepatitis B virus(HBV)infection is a major public health problem worldwide.However,the regulatory mechanisms underlying HBV replication remain unclear.Cullin 4 B-RING ubiquitin E3 ligase(CRL4 B)is involved in regulating diverse physiological and pathophysiological processes.In our study,we aimed to explain the role of CUL4 B in HBV infection.Methods:Cul4 b transgenic mice or conditional knockout mice,as well as liver cell lines with CUL4 B overexpression or knockdown,were used to assess the role of CUL4 B in HBV replication.Immunoprecipitation assays and immunofluorescence staining were performed to study the interaction between CUL4 B and HBx.Cycloheximide chase assays and in vivo ubiquitination assays were performed to evaluate the half-life and the ubiquitination status of HBx.Results:The hydrodynamics-based hepatitis B model in Cul4 b transgenic or conditional knockout mice indicated that CUL4 B promoted HBV replication(P<0.05).Moreover,the overexpression or knockdown system in human liver cell lines validated that CUL4 B increased HBV replication in an HBx-dependent manner.Importantly,immunoprecipitation assays and immunofluorescence staining showed an interaction between CUL4 B and HBx.Furthermore,CUL4 B upregulated HBx protein levels by inhibiting HBx ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation(P<0.05).Finally,a positive correlation between CUL4 B expression and HBV pg RNA level was observed in liver tissues from HBV-positive patients and HBV transgenic mice.Conclusions:CUL4 B enhances HBV replication by interacting with HBx and disrupting its ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation.CUL4 B may therefore be a potential target for anti-HBV therapy. | Haixia Shan Bo Wang Xiaodong Zhang Hui Song Xi Li Yongxin Zou Baichun Jiang Huili Hu Hao Dou Changshun Shao Lifen Gao Chunhong Ma Xiaoyun Yang Xiaohong Liang Yaoqin Gong | 2022 | Cancer Biology & Medicine2022,19,1: | 2 |

| 10 | Longitudinal residual circulation in the South Passage of Yangtze Estuary:Combined influences from runoff,tide and bathymetry显示文摘Classical estuary circulation theory states that in the longitudinal direction of an estuary there exists a single circulation with landward,near-bottom,and seaward,near-surface flows;however,the situation becomes complicated with the presence of a river mouth bar.Here we conducted tidal-cycle observations in the South Passage of the Yangtze Estuary during both the wet and dry seasons of 2018(July and December,respectively).The simultaneous current velocity,temperature,and salinity profile data were obtained from anchored boats and base tripods at three stations along the channel in the mouth bar area.The results reveal two distinct longitudinal residual circulation patterns:a classic circulation which is formed on the seaward slope of the mouth bar during the wet season,and a double circulation system which is composed of two circulation cells over the landward and seaward slopes of the mouth bar during the dry season.The Simpson number(Si),mixing parameter(M),and salinity data were used to quantify the mixing intensity,which shows that horizontal baroclinic pressure gradient is the dominant factor in the formation of the longitudinal residual circulation.Furthermore,the double circulation pattern during the dry season is related to the mouth bar bathymetry,which affects saltwater intrusion.The double circulations can significantly influence the spatial and temporal evolution of the stagnation point in the estuarine channel,which in turn modifies the distribution patterns of suspended sediment concentration in the maximum turbidity zone.Evidently,the changes in the mouth bar sandbar bathymetry in response to human activities and river basin hydrographic conditions indirectly affect the occurrence and scale of the double circulations. | Lifen ZHANG Zuosheng YANG Fan ZHANG Zhanhai LI Yaping WANG Shu GAO | 2021 | Science China Earth Sciences2021,64,12: | 1 |

| 13 | Monitoring casein kinase Ⅱ at subcellular level via bio-bar-code-based electrochemiluminescence biosensing method显示文摘A highly sensitive electrochemiluminescence(ECL) biosensing method was developed for monitoring casein kinase Ⅱ(CK2) at subcellular level via bio-bar-code assay.A bio-bar-code probe(h-DNA/AuNPs/pDNA) prepared by conjugating phosphorylated DNA(p-DNA) and hairpin DNA(h-DNA) onto gold nanoparticles(AuNPs) was used as a carrier for ECL signal reagent(Ru(phen)32+) while a specific peptide was used as a recognition substance.A gold ultramicroelectrode with a diameter of 400 nm was fabricated and then modified with the specific peptide via self-assembly technique to obtain peptide modified gold ultramicroelectrode.The peptide on gold ultramicroelectrode was phosphorylated in the presence of CK2 and adenosine 5’-triphosphate,and then the phosphorylated peptide was integrated with the h-DNA/AuNPs/p-DNA through a process mediated by zirconium cations(Zr4+),and finally Ru(phen)32+ was intercalated into h-DNA.A 'signal on' ECL method was developed for the detection of CK2 in the range of 0.005-0.2 U/mL with a detection limit of 0.001 U/mL.Additionally,combined efficient subcellular phosphorylation in vivo with bio-bar-code-based ECL biosensing method,the ECL method was further applied to monitor CK2 at subcellular level without tedious subcellular fractionation.It was found that the concentration of CK2 by inserting the peptide modified gold ultramicroelectrode into the nucleus was higher than that into cytoplasm of HeLa cells.A distinct heterogeneity among CK2 concentrations in single cells was observed for cellular heterogeneity assessment. | Lifen Wang Jiajia Song Xiaofei Wang Honglan Qi Qiang Gao Chengxiao Zhang | 2020 | Chinese Chemical Letters2020,31,9: | 1 |

| 19 | A novel reversible-deactivation radical polymerization strategy via near-infrared light-controlled photothermal conversion dividing wall-type heat exchanger显示文摘As an effective means of utilizing light energy,photothermal conversion has excellent application in the field of polymerization.Herein,a dividing wall-type heat exchanger with the aid of photothermal conversion was designed to conduct polymerization under irradiation with near-infrared(NIR)light by utilizing the ketocyanine-type dye solution as the highly efficient activator(>83.2%photothermal conversion efficiency).Various types of reversible-deactivation radical polymerization(RDRP)methods,including reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer,atom transfer radical polymerization,and bromine-iodine transformation RDRP,are suitable for this strategy.Well-defined polymers with excellent control over molar mass and molar mass dispersity(D<1.28)were thus synthesized within a few hours under NIR(λ_(max)=810 nm,850 nm)irradiation at room temperature.Importantly,in addition to conventional heating methods(such as electrical heating jackets),the designed dividing wall-type heat exchanger via NIR light activation has another unique advantage:it can enhance the polymerization by the synergistic effect of both heating and NIR light irradiation due to the deeper penetration of NIR light. | Qun Gao Kai Tu Haihui Li Lifen Zhang Zhenping Cheng | 2021 | Science China Chemistry2021,64,7: | 0 |
| 20 | Anti-angiogenic effect of tripterygium glycosides tablets in animal models of rheumatoid arthritis:A systematic review and meta-analysis显示文摘Objectives:To explore and summarize the beneficial effects of a traditional Chinese medicine preparation,Tripterygium glycosides tablets(TGT),in rheumatoid arthritis(RA)animal models of neovascularization,and to provide a reference for future clinical applications and research on its pharmacologic mechanism.Methods:We searched the databases PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure,VIP,Wan Fang and SinoMed(China Biomedical Document Service System)to identify studies of TGT with outcome indicators of angiogenesis-related factors that were published before April2020.Subgroup analysis and meta-regression were performed for dosage and duration of TGT.Statistical tests and subgroup analysis were conducted using RevMan 5.3,and meta-regression and sensitivity analysis were conducted using STATA/SE 15.0.Results:Fourteen studies of TGT in RA rats were included in this analysis.Treatment with TGT significantly reduces synovial microvessel density and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),VEGF receptor 2,hypoxia inducible factor a,c-Fos,c-Jun,angiopoietin-1 and angiopoietin-2 compared with control groups(P<.05).Subgroup analysis did not show a significant association of the mRNA levels of VEGF in synovium,assessed using quantitative real-time PCR,with duration or dosage of TGT.Meta-regression analysis also indicated that the effects of dosage and duration were not significantly associated with differences in VEGF mRNA levels.Sensitivity analysis on VEGF m RNA levels did not fundamentally change the results.Conclusions:TGT can reduce synovial neovascularization by decreasing synovial microvessel density and expression of VEGF,VEGF receptor 2,hypoxia-inducible factor a,c-Fos,c-Jun,Ang-1 and Ang-2,thereby suppressing pannus formation and bone destruction in rat models of RA.Additional well-designed studies are required to confirm these findings. | Limei Ao Han Gao Shimin Liu Lifen Jia Bingzhen Liu Jie Guo Jun Liu Qiumei Dong | 2020 | Journal of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences2020,7,3: | 0 |
