| 1 | Homeobox B8 Targets Sterile Alpha Motif Domain-Containing Protein 9 and Drives Glioma Progression显示文摘Gliomas are the most commonly occurring tumors of the central nervous system. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant and aggressive brain cancer in adults. Further understanding of the mechanisms underlying the aggressive nature of GBM is urgently needed. Here we identified homeobox B8(HOXB8), a member of the homeobox family, as a crucial contributor to the aggressiveness of GBM. Data mining of publicly accessible RNA sequence datasets and our patient cohorts confirmed a higher expression of HOXB8 in the tumor tissue of GBM patients, and a strong positive correlation between the expression level and pathological grading of tumors and a negative correlation between the expression level and the overall survival rate. We next showed that HOXB8 promotes the proliferation and migration of glioblastoma cells and is crucial for the activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway and expression of epithelial–mesenchymal transition-related genes, possibly through direct binding to the promoter of SAMD9 (Sterile Alpha Motif Domain-Containing Protein 9) and activating its transcription. Collectively, we identified HOXB8 as a critical contributor to the aggressiveness of GBM, which provides insights into a potential therapeutic target for GBM and opens new avenues for improving its treatment outcome. | Wenping Ma Hongze Jin Wenjie Liu Xiaojuan Li Xingang Zhou Xinwu Guo Runfa Tian Qi Cui Junjie Luo Yueying Jiao Youtao Yu Haifeng Yang Hongshan Zhao | 2020 | Neuroscience Bulletin2020,36,4: | 2 |
| 2 | A fluorometric and mitochondrion-targetable probe for rapid,naked-eye test of hypochlorite in real samples显示文摘Hypochlorite anion is a ubiquitous reactive molecule in the terminal disinfection systems, inflammatory stress and immune systems. Thus, rapid and visual monitoring ClO^- in water and biological samples is very meaningful for water quality safety and toxicity assessment of contaminants. Herein, a colorimetric and fluorometric probe(Rh-ClO) based on rhodamine B fluorophore and thiophene-2-carbohydrazide has been unveiled and successfully utilized for ClO^- detection in water samples and HeLa cells. Upon addition of ClO^-, color changes of solution from colorless to pink were immediately visible to the nakedeyes, meanwhile, brilliant red fluorescence was observed under excited at UV light(365 nm). Rh-ClO displayed high selectivity and sensitivity for ClO^- , and the detection limit was 7 mmol/L calculated from the fluorescence titration. With the aid of its merits including rapid response to ClO^- within 10 s, Rh-ClO and its test paper could successfully detect ClO^- in water. Additionally, HeLa cells image co-stained with Rh-ClO and Rh123 demonstrated that Rh-ClO possessed excellent and fast cell-membrane permeability and mitochondrion-targetability. It was clearly confirmed that Rh-ClO would be a promising probe for rapid tracking of ClO^- in water samples and in mitochondria of living cells. | Ying Xia Xiaoyu Liu Dan Wang Zechen Wang Qiang Liu Haibo Yu Mingyan Zhang Youtao Song | 2018 | Chinese Chemical Letters2018,29,10: | 2 |

| 4 | Tuning Active Metal Atomic Spacing by Filling of Light Atoms and Resulting Reversed Hydrogen Adsorption-Distance Relationship for Efficient Catalysis显示文摘Precisely tuning the spacing of the active centers on the atomic scale is of great significance to improve the catalytic activity and deepen the understanding of the catalytic mechanism,but still remains a challenge.Here,we develop a strategy to dilute catalytically active metal interatomic spacing(d_(M-M))with light atoms and discover the unusual adsorption patterns.For example,by elevating the content of boron as interstitial atoms,the atomic spacing of osmium(d_(Os-Os))gradually increases from 2.73 to 2.96?.More importantly,we find that,with the increase in dOs-Os,the hydrogen adsorption-distance relationship is reversed via downshifting d-band states,which breaks the traditional cognition,thereby optimizing the H adsorption and H_2O dissociation on the electrode surface during the catalytic process;this finally leads to a nearly linear increase in hydrogen evolution reaction activity.Namely,the maximum dOs-Os of 2.96?presents the optimal HER activity(8 mV@10 mA cm^(-2))in alkaline media as well as suppressed O adsorption and thus promoted stability.It is believed that this novel atomic-level distance modulation strategy of catalytic sites and the reversed hydrogen adsorption-distance relationship can shew new insights for optimal design of highly efficient catalysts. | Ding Chen Ruihu Lu Ruohan Yu Hongyu Zhao Dulan Wu Youtao Yao Kesong Yu Jiawei Zhu Pengxia Ji Zonghua Pu Zongkui Kou Jun Yu Jinsong Wu Shichun Mu | 2023 | Nano-Micro Letters2023,15,10: | 0 |
| 5 | Response of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium to alginate oligosaccharides fermented with fecal inoculum:integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses显示文摘Alginate oligosaccharides(AOS),extracted from marine brown algae,are a common functional feed additive;however,it remains unclear whether they modulate the gut microbiota and microbial metabolites.The response of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium,a common poultry pathogen,to AOS fermented with chicken fecal inocula was investigated using metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses.Single-strain cultivation tests showed that AOS did not directly inhibit the growth of S.Typhimurium.However,when AOS were fermented by chicken fecal microbiota,the supernatant of fermented AOS(F-AOS)exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against S.Typhimurium,decreasing the abundance ratio of S.Typhimurium in the fecal microbiota from 18.94 to 2.94%.Transcriptomic analyses showed that the 855 diferentially expressed genes induced by F-AOS were mainly enriched in porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism,oxidative phosphorylation,and Salmonella infection-related pathways.RT-qPCR confrmed that F-AOS downregulated key genes involved in fagellar assembly and the type III secretory system of S.Typhimurium,indicating metabolites in F-AOS can infuence the growth and metabolism of S.Typhimurium.Metabolomic analyses showed that 205 microbial metabolites were signifcantly altered in F-AOS.Among them,the increase in indolelactic acid and 3-indolepropionic acid levels were further confrmed using HPLC.This study provides a new perspective for the application of AOS as a feed additive against pathogenic intestinal bacteria. | Jiaying Cheng Mengshi Xiao Xinmiao Ren Francesco Secundo Ying Yu Shihao Nan Weimiao Chen Changliang Zhu Qing Kong Youtao Huang Xiaodan Fu Haijin Mou | 2023 | Marine Life Science & Technology2023,5,2: | 0 |
