RecA and RecB: probing complexes of DNA repair proteins with mitomycin C in live Escherichia coli with single-molecule sensitivity [PDF]

J R Soc Interface . 2022 Aug;19(193):20220437, 2021
The RecA protein and RecBCD complex are key bacterial components for the maintenance and repair of DNA, RecBCD a helicase-nuclease that uses homologous recombination to resolve double-stranded DNA breaks and also facilitating decoration of single-stranded DNA with RecA to form RecA filaments, a vital step in the double-stranded break DNA repair pathway.

Aberrant expression of nuclear prothymosin α contributes to epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nuclear prothymosin α inhibits epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in lung cancer by increasing Smad7 acetylation and competing with Smad2 for binding to SNAI1, TWIST1, and ZEB1 promoters. In early‐stage cancer, ProT suppresses TGF‐β‐induced EMT, while its loss in the nucleus in late‐stage cancer leads to enhanced EMT and poor prognosis.

Fluorescence Label‐Free Doxorubicin Sensor Using Polystyrene Sulfonate as a Synthetic Receptor in Whispering Gallery Mode Microresonators

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The illustration showcases resonant optical microsensors for Doxorubicin (DXR) detection, using polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) as a synthetic receptor. PSS is deposited as a nanometer‐thick layer on fluorescent microparticles via layer‐by‐layer assembly. DXR‐PSS interaction is depicted, highlighting its effect on the sensor's resonant modes.

Activation of HTR2B Suppresses Osteosarcoma Progression through the STAT1‐NLRP3 Inflammasome Pathway and Promotes OASL1+ Macrophage Production to Enhance Antitumor Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Activation of HTR2B suppresses osteosarcoma progression through the STAT1‐NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and promotes OASL1+ Macrophage production to enhance anti‐tumor immunity. Abstract Osteosarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor originating from mesenchymal tissue, and associated with poor prognosis.

Nanoneedle‐Based Electroporation for Efficient Manufacturing of Human Primary Chimeric Antigen Receptor Regulatory T‐Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Low reproducibility and inefficient gene transfer hamper clinical manufacturing of chimeric antigen receptor regulatory T cells (CAR Tregs). Nanoneedle mediated electroporation generates primary human CAR Tregs under good manufacturing practice conditions with superior efficiency compared to viral transduction.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Trehalose‐Based Mertansine Warheads for BCG Delivery of Anti‐Cancer Agents

ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) accounts for 75% of bladder cancer cases, with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy as the gold standard for high‐risk patients. BCG elicits a robust immune response but is limited by adverse effects and resistance. To enhance its efficacy, we developed a trehalose‐based conjugation strategy, tethering

Loss of the epithelial transcription factor grhl3 leads to variably penetrant developmental phenotypes in zebrafish

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Environmental influence is critical for embryogenesis but is significantly under‐appreciated under lab conditions, which are not typically designed to robustly test environmental variability. Here, we report environmental effects on the developmental phenotype of zebrafish lacking the transcription factor Grainyhead‐like 3 (grhl3 ...

Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 59-73, Spring 2025.
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option

Research progress of antibody coupling technique in targeted drug delivery

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Antibody‐drug conjugates are a cutting‐edge biotechnology recently attracting wide attention in the medical field. Binding antibodies to drug molecules could deliver drugs precisely to the site of the lesion, which shows great potential in the treatment of tumors and immune diseases.
