Thermoelectric Properties of Composite Nanoparticle Array with Protoporphyrin Molecule Junctions

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Composite nano-structures have many interesting properties and potential applications. For a molecule-nanoparticle (NP) composite array, its properties may strongly depend on the molecules on/between NPs. For instance, the resistance of NP composite film

Impaired Magnesium Protoporphyrin IX Methyltransferase (ChlM) Impedes Chlorophyll Synthesis and Plant Growth in Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Magnesium protoporphyrin IX methyltransferase (ChlM) catalyzes the formation of magnesium protoporphyrin IX monomethylester (MgPME) from magnesium protoporphyrin IX (MgP) in the chlorophyll synthesis pathway. However, no ChlM gene has yet been identified

Inhibition of ABCG2 prevents phototoxicity in a mouse model of erythropoietic protoporphyria

Nature Communications
Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is a genetic disease characterized by protoporphyrin IX-mediated painful phototoxicity. Currently, options for the management of EPP-associated phototoxicity are limited and no oral medication is available.

THBS1+ Macrophages Exacerbate Modic Changes via SDC4‐Dependent Activation of NLRP3 Inflammasome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The illustration of THBS1+ macrophages exacerbate MCs via SDC4‐dependent activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. THBS1+ macrophage subpopulation was identified in MCs through single‐cell RNA sequencing. C. acnes and its metabolites activate THBS1 expression in macrophages via the TLR signaling pathway.

Mapping Steroidogenic Perturbations Under Endocrine Disruptor Mixtures Across Demographic Subgroups: Structural and Metabolomic Insights

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Population‐scale EDC–hormone association mapping among 4255 participants across demographic subgroups identifies phthalate metabolites as the most consistent signals associated with lower testosterone‐related markers in males. Integrative mechanistic validation prioritizes MCPP as a key phthalate metabolite linked to CYP17A1‐centered disruption of ...

G‐Quadruplexes: Structural Diversity and Emerging Roles in Biomolecular Condensation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
G‐quadruplexes (G4s) fold into diverse intra‐ and intermolecular structures, positioning them as emerging regulators of biomolecular condensation. Mechanistically, G4s autonomously form condensates, act as structural platforms to initiate and stimulate condensation, or induce phase transitions.

Elimination of Fusobacterium nucleatum With Biomimetic Nanoparticles to Reverse Tumor Immunosuppression and Enhance Colorectal Cancer Therapy

Exploration, EarlyView.
Tumor‐related pathogenic bacteria can affect the treatment efficiency of tumors. Therefore, we have designed a nanoparticle that can accurately target tumor cells and related pathogenic bacteria, reverse the immunosuppressive effect of pathogenic bacteria on tumors, and synergistically enhance tumor treatment efficiency through sonodynamic therapy ...
