Monitoring of cellular senescence by DNA‐methylation at specific CpG sites
Aging Cell, 2012 SummaryReplicative senescence has fundamental implications on cell morphology, proliferation, and differentiation potential. Here, we describe a simple method to track long‐term culture based on continuous DNA‐methylation changes at six specific CpG sites.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Using the convolutional neural network model VDLIN, Co7 is identified as a promising therapeutic candidate. Co7 demonstrates distinct advantages over MCB by effectively balancing anti‐inflammatory and immune‐stimulatory functions, making it a potential novel approach for immune modulation.

Back-electron transfer suppresses the periodic length dependence of DNA-mediated charge transport across adenine tracts [PDF]
, 2008 DNA-mediated charge transport (CT) is exquisitely sensitive to the integrity of the bridging π-stack and is characterized by a shallow distance dependence. These properties are obscured by poor coupling between the donor/acceptor pair and the DNA bridge,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study describes a T cell surface engineering strategy that integrates polymer materials with tumor immunology, aiming to achieve broad‐spectrum anti‐tumor applications of glycopolymer‐engineered T (G‐T) cells via non‐genetic modification. Glycopolymer engineering generally modulates immune‐tumor crosstalk through specific cell‐cell interactions ...

CpG site-specific alteration of hydroxymethylcytosine to methylcytosine beyond DNA replication
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2012 Hydroxymethylcytosines (hmC), one of several reported cytosine modifications, was recently found to be enriched in embryonic stem cells and neuronal cells, and thought to play an important role in regulating gene expression and cell specification. However, unlike methylcytosines (mC), the fate of hmC beyond DNA replication is not well understood. Here,

Metformin Impairs Breast Cancer Growth through the Inhibition of PRMT6
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Metformin has a biological activity against breast cancer. However, it is largely unknown about its precise therapeutic targets. Here, histone arginine methyltransferase PRMT6 is identified as a new anti‐cancer target for metformin. Metformin directly binds PRMT6 and inhibits its ability to catalyze histone H3R2 asymmetric dimethylation (H3R2me2a ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this article, Shuai and colleagues found that depletion of Sorcs3 could activate totipotency in mESCs, promising bidirectional differentiation potential to embryonic and extraembryonic lineages. The underlying mechanism might be activation of Tfap2c and repression of TGF‐β, PI3K‐AKT, and lysosome pathways.
