Ursolic acid(UA)is a naturally occurring ursane triterpenoid,which exhibits a wide range of unique biological activities.To clarify its mechanism of action(MOA),a series of fluorescent derivatives of UA(5a-c)were designed and synthesized by conjugation with 7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole(NBD)fluorophore.Among them,5c exhibited similar anti-proliferative activity with UA against HCT116 cells(half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC_(50))=9.21±0.50μmol/L).Cell imaging experiment indicated that 5c was rapidly taken up in HCT116 cells in a dose and time-dependent manner.Then,5c was found to localize in endoplasmic reticulum(ER),lysosomes,and mitochondria,but not in nucleus of HCT116 cells by confocal microscopy studies.Preliminary MOA proved that UA induced autophagy with a unique intracellular distribution mechanism involving ER and lysosome.In all,our work provides new clues for revealing the molecular mechanism of UA as an antitumor agent.

Autophagy is an important factor in reducing the efficacy of tumor phototherapy(including PTT and PDT).Accurate regulation of autophagy in tumor cells is a new strategy to improve the anti-tumor efficiency of PTT/PDT.This project intended to construct a tumor-activated autophagy regulator to efficiently block PTT/PDT-induced autophagy and realize synergistic sensitization to tumor phototherapy.To achieve this goal,we first synthesized TRANSFERRIN(Tf)biomimetic mineralized nano-tellurium(Tf-Te)as photosensitizer and then used disulfide bond reconstruction technology to induce Tf-Te self-assembly.The autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine(HCQ)and iron ions carried by Tf were simultaneously loaded to prepare a tumor-responsive drug reservoir Tf-Te/HCQ.After entering breast cancer cells through the“self-guidance system”,Tf-Te/HCQ can generate hyperpyrexia and ROS under NIR laser irradiation,to efficiently induce PTT/PDT effect.Meanwhile,the disulfide bond broke down in response to GSH,and the nanoparticles disintegrated to release Fe2+and HCQ at fixed points.They simultaneously induce lysosomal alkalinization and increased osmotic pressure,effectively inhibit autophagy,and synergistically enhance the therapeutic effect of phototherapy.In vivo anti-tumor results have proved that the tumor inhibition rate of Tf-Te/HCQ can be as high as 88.6%on 4T1 tumor-bearing mice.This multifunctional drug delivery system might provide a new alternative for more precise and effective tumor phototherapy.

Objective: Rosa odorata var. gigantea is a popular medicinal plant. Some studies have demonstrated that ethanolic extract of the fruits of R. odorata var. gigantea(FOE) has gastroprotective properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the gastroprotective activity of FOE on water immersion restrained stress(WIRS)-induced gastric mucosal injury in a rat model and elucidate the possible molecular mechanisms involved.Methods: A rat stress ulcer model was established in this study using WIRS. After rats were treated with FOE orally for 7 d, the effect of FOE treatment was analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin(H&E) staining, and the changes of inflammatory factors, oxidative stress factors, and gastric-specific regulatory factors and pepsin in the blood and gastric tissues of rats were examined by ELISA assay. molecular mechanism of FOE was investigated by immunohistochemical assay and Western blot.Results: Compared with the WIRS group, FOE could diminish both the macroscopic and microscopic pathological morphology of gastric mucosa. FOE significantly preserved the antioxidants glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX), superoxide dismutase(SOD) and catalase(CAT) contents;anti-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-10(IL-10) and prostaglandin E2(PGE2) levels as well as regulatory factors tumor necrosis factor-a(TGF-a) and somatostatin(SS) contents, while decreasing malondialdehyde(MDA), nitric oxide synthase(i NOS), tumor necrosis factor(TNF-a), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin-6(IL-6), gastrin(GAS)and endothelin(ET) levels. Moreover, FOE distinctly upregulated the expression of Nrf2, HO-1, Bcl2 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA). In addition, FOE activated the expression of p-EGFR and downregulated the expression of NF-ΚB, Bax, Cleaved-caspase-3, Cyto-C and Cleaved-PARP1, thus promoting gastric mucosal cell survival.Conclusion: The current work demonstrated that FOE exerted a gastroprotective activity against gastric mucosal injury induced by WIRS. The underlying mechanism might be associated with the improvement of

Developing effective and long-term treatment strategies for rare and complex neurodegenerative diseases is challenging. One of the major roadblocks is the extensive heterogeneity among patients. This hinders understanding the underlying disease-causing mechanisms and building solutions that have implications for a broad spectrum of patients. One potential solution is to develop personalized medicine approaches based on strategies that target the most prevalent cellular events that are perturbed in patients. Especially in patients with a known genetic mutation, it may be possible to understand how these mutations contribute to problems that lead to neurodegeneration. Protein–protein interaction analyses offer great advantages for revealing how proteins interact, which cellular events are primarily involved in these interactions, and how they become affected when key genes are mutated in patients. This line of investigation also suggests novel druggable targets for patients with different mutations. Here, we focus on alsin and spastin, two proteins that are identified as “causative” for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and hereditary spastic paraplegia, respectively, when mutated. Our review analyzes the protein interactome for alsin and spastin, the canonical pathways that are primarily important for each protein domain, as well as compounds that are either Food and drug Administration–approved or are in active clinical trials concerning the affected cellular pathways. This line of research begins to pave the way for personalized medicine approaches that are desperately needed for rare neurodegenerative diseases that are complex and heterogeneous.

α-Functionalized organoborons are useful building blocks and key structural elements in functional molecules.Their previous synthesis relied on the famous Matteson reaction or the late-stage borylative modification of alkynes or alkenes.Recently,the synthetic transformation of borylated building blocks offers another useful strategy and is currently actively explored.We report herein that B(MIDA)-propargylic alcohols(BPAs) are a useful type of borylated building blocks.Bearing two complementary functional group handles(alkyne and hydroxyl) in close proximity,the redox-neutral [3,3] and [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangements of BPAs allow the efficient synthesis of several types of α-functionalized boronates,including α,β-unsaturated acylborons,α-S/P-substituted allenylborons,boryl-substituted thiazoles and a borylated α,β-unsaturated hydrazine,some of which are otherwise challenging targets using other synthetic methods.

Thrombosis remains a major global health concern mainly characterized by high rates of morbidity and mortality.Animal models serve as an indispensable tool to understand the underlying pathogenesis of thrombosis and assess the efficacy of novel antithrombotic drugs.Currently,zebrafish has emerged as a valuable model organism for thrombosis research.However,the traditional method of studying zebrafish thrombosis requires a laborious and time-consuming procedure,including anesthesia and manual immobilization of zebrafish.In this study,based on hydrodynamic force,a lateral-immobilization zebrafish microfluidic chip(LIZMC)was designed to evaluate the cardiovascular system of multiple larvae within a single microscope field of view.Specifically,coupling with microscope imaging,real-time monitoring of the peripheral blood circulation in the tail of phenylhydrazine(PHZ)-induced zebrafish thrombosis was enabled.Furthermore,the reliability of LIZMC for in vivo evaluation of antithrombotic agents in zebrafish was verified using aspirin.Collectively,this novel LIZMC-based system can be used for in vivo zebrafish thrombosis studies and rapid screening of antithrombotic agents.

Oncogenes are critical factors in tumorigenesis of diverse cancer types and play essential roles in tumor immune escape.Mutations in Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(KRAS)and epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)are among the most frequent gain-of-function alterations[1].After many years of in-depth research,inhibitors targeting EGFR or KRAS mutations have been successfully developed,however,their clinical benefit is relatively limited,and they will inevitably encounter the challenge of drug resistance.The emergence of resistance is attributed to secondary mutations in driver genes and other complicated factors.

The translocation of YAP from the cytoplasm to the nucleus is critical for its activation and plays a key role in tumor progression.However,the precise molecular mechanisms governing the nuclear import of YAP are not fully understood.In this study,we have uncovered a crucial role of SOX9 in the activation of YAP.SOX9 promotes the nuclear translocation of YAP by direct interaction.Importantly,we have identified that the binding between Asp-125 of SOX9 and Arg-124 of YAP is essential for SOX9-YAP interaction and subsequent nuclear entry of YAP.Additionally,we have discovered a novel asymmetrical dimethylation of YAP at Arg-124(YAP-R124me2a)catalyzed by PRMT1.YAP-R124me2a enhances the interaction between YAP and SOX9 and is associated with poor prognosis in multiple cancers.Furthermore,we disrupted the interaction between SOX9 and YAP using a competitive peptide,S-A1,which mimics anα-helix of SOX9 containing Asp-125.S-A1 significantly inhibits YAP nuclear translocation and effectively suppresses tumor growth.This study provides the first evidence of SOX9 as a pivotal regulator driving YAP nuclear translocation and presents a potential therapeutic strategy for YAP-driven human cancers by targeting SOX9-YAP interaction.
