Proteomics analysis provides novel biomarkers and therapeutic target candidates in the treatment of the Huang-Pu-Tong-Qiao formula in an AD rat mode

Background:Huang-Pu-Tong-Qiao formula(HPTQ),a traditional Chinese herbal formula,has a variety of pharmacological effects.It has been used to treat Alzheimer’s disease(AD)for decades.This study aimed to screen differentially expressed proteins in the hippocampus of AD model rats treated with HPTQ.Proteomic studies of the effects of HPTQ on AD are key to understanding the therapeutic mechanisms of HPTQ and identifying potential therapeutic targets.Methods:We hence used the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification(ITRAQ)approach to investigate the differentially expressed proteins in the hippocampus of AD model rats before and after HPTQ administration and to identify the potential therapeutic target proteins of HPTQ.In this study,the learning and memory abilities of AD rats were examined by the Morris water maze test.After HPTQ administration,the differentially expressed proteins in the hippocampus of AD rats were quantified and analyzed in silico.Furthermore,western blotting was used to verify the expression of related proteins.Results:The Morris water maze results showed that HPTQ could improve the learning and memory ability of AD model rats.The proteomics analysis results showed that 57 proteins were differentially expressed,of which 35 were up-regulated and 22 were down-regulated.Bioinformatics analysis indicated that proteins with altered expression after HPTQ treatment were involved in several biological processes that have the potential to exert neuroprotective effects.These included promoting the translation of ribosomes,improving the deposition of amyloid-beta(Aβ),regulating autophagy,regulating neuronal synaptic function and plasticity,and alleviating oxidative stress.Conclusion:In conclusion,we identified several potential therapeutic target proteins and related mechanistic pathways of HPTQ in the treatment of AD,laying the foundation for further investigation of the therapeutic effects of HPTQ.

Oxidation-strengthened disulfide-bridged prodrug nanoplatforms with cascade facilitated drug release for synergetic photochemotherapy

One of the major barriers in utilizing prodrug nanocarriers for cancer therapy is the slow release of parent drug in tumors.Tumor cells generally display the higher oxidative level than normal cells,and also displayed the heterogeneity in terms of redox homeostasis level.We previously found that the disulfide bond-linkage demonstrates surprising oxidationsensitivity to form the hydrophilic sulfoxide and sulphone groups.Herein,we develop oxidation-strengthened prodrug nanosystem loaded with pyropheophorbide a(PPa)to achieve light-activatable cascade drug release and enhance therapeutic efficacy.The disulfide bond-driven prodrug nanosystems not only respond to the redox-heterogeneity in tumor,but also respond to the exogenous oxidant(singlet oxygen)elicited by photosensitizers.Once the prodrug nanoparticles(NPs)are activated under irradiation,they would undergo an oxidative self-strengthened process,resulting in a facilitated drug cascade release.The IC50 value of the PPa@PTX-S-S NPs without irradiation was 2-fold higher than those of NPs plus irradiation.In vivo,the PPa@PTX prodrug NPs display prolonged systemic circulation and increased accumulation in tumor site.The PPa@PTXS-S NPs showed much higher efficiency than free PTX or the PPa@PTX-C-C NPs to suppress the growth of 4 T1 tumors.Therefore,this novel oxidation-strengthened disulfide-bridged prodrug-nanosystem has a great potential in the enhanced efficacy of cancer synergetic photochemotherapy.

Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of therapeutic bandage contact lenses on post-cataract surgery patients

AIM： To evaluate the safety of therapeutic bandage contact lens for post-cataract surgery patients and to illustrate its efficacy on post-operative comfort and tear-film stability. METHODS： A total of 40 participants were recruited and randomly divided into two groups. Group one was instructed to wear bandage contact lenses for a week and use antibiotic eye drops for a month since the first day after surgery. Group two received sub-conjunctival injection of tobramycin and was asked to wear eye pads on the first day after surgery and then were instructed to use antibiotic eye drops as the first group did. Ocular surface disease index（OSDI） questionnaire, slit-lamp microscope examination of tear break-up time（TBUT）, corneal fluorescein score（CFS）, tear meniscus height（TMH） together with anterior segment optical coherence tomography（AS-OCT） and corneal topography were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively. RESULTS： The subjective feeling（P=0.004）, TBUT（P〈0.001） and TMH（P=0.02） post-surgery had improved in patients who used bandage contact lenses compared with those who did not at 1wk post-surgery. Until three month postoperatively, the comfort degree（P=0.004） and TMH（P=0.01） of group two were still worse than group one. Moreover, TBUT（P〈0.001） and CFS（P=0.004） of the group with eye pads got worse than the results before, whereas the group with bandage contact lenses recovered to normal. None of these patients had infections or other complications. CONCLUSION： Wearing therapeutic bandage contact lens after cataract surgery, compared with traditional eye-pads, is a safe method to improve tear-film stability and reduce post-operative discomfort without hindering corneal incision recovery.

Current multifunctional albumin-based nanoplatforms for cancer multi-mode therapy

Albumin has been widely applied for rational design of drug delivery complexes as natural carriers in cancer therapy due to its distinct advantages of biocompatibility,abundance,low toxicity and versatile property.Hence,various types of multifunctional albumin-based nanoplatforms(MAlb-NPs)that adopt multiple imaging and therapeutic techniques have been developed for cancer diagnosis and treatment.Stimuli-responsive release,including reduction-sensitive,p H-responsive,concentration-dependent and photodynamic-triggered,is important to achieve low-toxicity cancer therapy.Several types of imaging techniques can synergistically improve the effectiveness of cancer therapy.Therefore,combinational theranostic is considered to be a prospective strategy to improve treatment efficiency,minimize side effects and reduce drug resistance,which has received tremendous attentions in recent years.In this review,we highlight several stimuli-responsive albumin nanoplatforms for combinational theranostic.

Photodegradation of benzothiazole ionic liquids catalyzed by titanium dioxide and silver-loaded titanium dioxide

In recent years,ionic liquids(ILs)have been widely used in extraction,synthesis,electrochemistry and other fields.Meanwhile,the environmental impact of ILs has been attracting a lot of attention,and eco-friendly treatment for ILs is becoming a necessary subject.In this study,photocatalytic degradations of benzothiazole ILs catalyzed by titanium dioxide(TiO2)and silver-loaded titanium dioxide(Ag/TiO2)were studied for the first time.The degradation of benzothiazole hexafluorophosphate([C4 Bth]PF6)could reach more than 99%within 240 min with the catalysis of TiO2.To improve catalytic efficiency,Ag/TiO2 was synthesized and characterized by UV–Vis diffuse reflectance absorption spectra(DRS)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).The degradation of[C4 Bth]PF6 could reach more than 99%within 120 min in the degradation catalyzed by Ag/TiO2.The photodegradation products of benzothiazole ILs are composed of inorganic substances or organic substances with simpler structures,which are easier to decompose and less toxic.The degradation system proposed by this study could provide a simple,green,safe,and economical method for the efficient treatment of benzothiazole ILs.

Accuracy and safety of a novel aqueous humor collector versus 29 G insulin syringe for anterior chamber paracentesis and aqueous humor collection:A multicenter randomized clinical trial

To the Editor:Anterior chamber(AC)paracentesis is a commonly performed procedure to lower intraocular pressure(IOP),and to sample aqueous humor(AH)for clinical and research purposes.As suggested by an international collaboration team,an immediately performed AC paracentesis before an intravitreal injection can also prevent post-injection IOP spike.[1]While IOP could immediately be reduced by AC paracentesis,the procedure of obtaining an AH sample(liquid biopsy)is more complicated.Several methods have been developed to facilitate AH collection and transfer,[2-7]among which a vacuum-based AH collector(SnovoDAHC I-50,Sightnovo Medical Technology Co.,Beijing,China)has better performance than the commonly used insulin syringe in accurate sampling of about 50μL AH in rabbits by one hand.[7]The current clinical trial aimed to evaluate the performance and safety of this product in human subjects.

Investigation of pressure wave behaviors in the rotational speed effects on a pressure-exchange wave rotor

A wave rotor is suitable for compact and efficient pressure-exchange between gas flows.This work measured the circumferential pressure distribution of the rotor/stator interfaces and utilized a CFD method to simulate the unsteady pressure waves.The experimental and CFD results showed some slopes in the circumferential pressure distributions,and the slopes indicated the traces of specific unsteady pressure waves.Such traces varied regularly if the rotational speed varied within a range from-11%to+11%off the baseline value,but they were seriously disturbed if the rotational speed varied by-45%from the baseline value.It verified that a pressure wave in a wave rotor tended to keep its pressure ratio and propagation velocity unchanged if the rotational speed varied by a small extent,and that the pressure wave could not keep its propagation patterns if the rotational speed varied by a large extent.Because of the pressure wave behaviors,the wave rotor demonstrated specific regulations of the rotational speed effects on its operational states.

Lysine succinylation,the metabolic bridge between cancer and immunity

Direct observation of localized surface plasmon field enhancement by Kelvin probe force microscopy

A surface plasmon(SP)is a fundamental excitation state that exists in metal nanostructures.Over the past several years,the performance of optoelectronic devices has been improved greatly via the SP enhancement effect.In our previous work,the responsivity of GaN ultraviolet detectors was increased by over 30 times when using Ag nanoparticles.However,the physics of the SP enhancement effect has not been established definitely because of the lack of experimental evidence.To reveal the physical origin of this enhancement,Kelvin probe force microscopy(KPFM)was used to observe the SP-induced surface potential reduction in the vicinity of Ag nanoparticles on a GaN epilayer.Under ultraviolet illumination,the localized field enhancement induced by the SP forces the photogenerated electrons to drift close to the Ag nanoparticles,leading to a reduction of the surface potential around the Ag nanoparticles on the GaN epilayer.For an isolated Ag nanoparticle with a diameter of~200 nm,the distribution of the SP localized field is located within 60 nm of the boundary of the Ag nanoparticle.For a dimer of Ag nanoparticles,the localized field enhancement between the nanoparticles was the strongest.The results presented here provide direct experimental proof of the localized field enhancement.These results not only explain the high performance of GaN detectors observed with the use of Ag nanoparticles but also reveal the physical mechanism of SP enhancement in optoelectronic devices,which will help us further understand and improve the performance of SP-based optoelectronic devices in the future.

Global profiling of O-GlcNAcylated and/or phosphorylated proteins in hepatoblastoma

O-linked-β-N-acetylglucosamine(O-GlcNAc)glycosylation(O-GlcNAcylation)and phosphorylation are critical posttranslational modifications that are involved in regulating the functions of proteins involved in tumorigenesis and the development of various solid tumors.However,a detailed characterization of the patterns of these modifications at the peptide or protein level in hepatoblastoma(HB),a highly malignant primary hepatic tumor with an extremely low incidence in children,has not been performed.Here,we examined O-GlcNAc-modified or phospho-modified peptides and proteins in HB through quantitative proteomic analysis of HB tissues and paired normal liver tissues.Our results identified 114 O-GlcNAcylated peptides belonging to 78 proteins and 3494 phosphorylated peptides in 2088 proteins.Interestingly,41 proteins were modified by both O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation.These proteins are involved in multiple molecular and cellular processes,including chromatin remodeling,transcription,translation,transportation,and organelle organization.In addition,we verified the accuracy of the proteomics results and found a competitive inhibitory effect between O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation of HSPB1.Further,O-GlcNAcylation modification of HSPB1 promoted proliferation and enhanced the chemotherapeutic resistance of HB cell lines in vitro.Collectively,our research suggests that O-GlcNAc-modified and/or phospho-modified proteins may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of HB.
