Pan-cancer analysis of RNA 5-methylcytosine reader (ALYREF)

The incre asing interest in RNA modifications has signifcantly advanced epigenomic and epitranscriptomic technologies.This study focuses on the immuno oncological impact of ALYREF in human cancer through a pan-cancer analysis,enhancing understanding of this gene's role in cancer.We observed differential ALYREF expression between tumor and normal samples,correl ating strongly with prognosis in various cancers,particularly kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma(KIRP)and liver hepatocellular carcinoma(LIHC).ALYREF showed a negative correlation with most tumor-infitrating cells in lung squamous cell carcinoma(LUSC)and lymphoid neoplasm difuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBC),while positive correlations were noted in IIHC,kidney chromophobe(KICH),mesothelioma(MESO),KIRP,pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma(PARD),and glioma(GBMLGG).Aditionally,ALYREF expression was closely associated with tumor heterogeneity,stemness indices,and a high mutation rate in TP53 across these cancers.In conclusion,ALYREF may serve as an oncogenic biomarker in numerous cancers,meriting further research attention.

5-Methylcytosine RNA Methylation in Arabidopsis Thaliana

5-Methylcytosine （m^5C） is a well-characterized DNA modification, and is also predominantly reported in abundant non-coding RNAs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. However, the distribution and biological functions of m^5C in plant mRNAs remain largely unknown. Here, we report transcriptome-wide profiling of RNA m^5C in Arabidopsis thaliana by applying m^5C RNA immunoprecipitation followed by a deep- sequencing approach （m^5C-RIP-seq）. LC-MS/MS and dot blot analyses reveal a dynamic pattern of m^5C mRNA modification in various tissues and at different developmental stages, m^5C-RIP-seq analysis identified 6045 m^5C peaks in 4465 expressed genes in young seedlings. We found that m^5C is enriched in coding sequences with two peaks located immediately after start codons and before stop codons, and is associated with mRNAs with low translation activity. We further demonstrated that an RNA （cytosine-5）-methyl- transferase, tRNA-specific methyltransferase 4B （TRM4B）, exhibits m^5C RNA methyltransferase activity. Mutations in TRM4B display defects in root development and decreased m^5C peaks. TRM4B affects the transcript levels of the genes involved in root development, which is positively correlated with their mRNA stability and m^5C levels. Our results suggest that m^5C in mRNA is a new epitranscriptome marker inArabidopsis, and that regulation of this modification is an integral part of gene regulatory networks underlying plant development.

Global changes of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine and 5-methylcytosine from normal to tumor tissues are associated with carcinogenesis and prognosis in colorectal cancer

Aberrant DNA methylation has raised widespread attention in tumorigenesis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the changes of global DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation from normal to tumor tissues in colorectal cancer(CRC) and their association with the prognosis. The levels of genomic 5-hydroxymethylcytosine(5hmC) and 5-methylcytosine(5mC) in cancerous tissues were significantly lower than those in corresponding adjacent normal tissues. The genomic levels of 5mC were significantly positively correlated with 5hmC in normal and cancerous tissues(all P<0.05). The ratio of 5mC in cancerous tissues to matched normal tissues(C/N-5mC) was also significantly positively correlated with the ratio of 5hmC in cancerous tissues to matched normal tissues(C/N-5hmC)(P=0.01). The 5mC levels and C/N-5mC ratios decreased with age(all P<0.05). Higher 5mC and 5hmC levels were found in rectal than in colon tissues(all P<0.05). High levels of 5mC in cancerous tissues and high C/N-5hmC ratios were each associated with lymph node metastasis(all P<0.05). Survival analysis indicated that the C/N-5mC ratio(P=0.04) is an independent protective factor for overall survival. The data showed that patients with a combination of high C/N-5hmC and low C/N-5mC ratios tended to have a worse prognosis(P<0.01). Our findings showed that the C/N-5mC ratio may be an independent prognostic factor for CRC outcome. Patients with both a high C/N-5hmC ratio and a low C/N-5mC ratio exhibited the worst survival, suggesting that 5mC and 5hmC can be used as critical markers in tumorigenesis and prognosis estimation.

Epitranscriptomic 5-Methylcytosine Profile in PM_(2.5)-induced Mouse Pulmonary Fibrosis

Exposure of airborne particulate matter(PM)with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5μm(PM2.5)is epidemiologically associated with lung dysfunction and respiratory symptoms,including pulmonary fibrosis.However,whether epigenetic mechanisms are involved in PM2.5-induced pulmonary fibrosis is currently poorly understood.Herein,using a PM2.5-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model,we found that PM2.5 exposure leads to aberrant mRNA5-methylcytosine(m5C)gain and loss in fibrotic lung tissues.Moreover,we showed the m5C-mediated regulatory map of gene functions in pulmonary fibrosis after PM2.5 exposure.Several genes act as m5C gain-upregulated factors,probably critical for the development of PM2.5-induced fibrosis in mouse lungs.These genes,including Lcn2,Mmp9,Chi3l1,Adipoq,Atp5j2,Atp5l,Atpif1,Ndufb6,Fgr,Slc11 a1,and Tyrobp,are highly related to oxidative stress response,inflammatory responses,and immune system processes.Our study illustrates the first epitranscriptomic RNA m5C profile in PM2.5-induced pulmonary fibrosis and will be valuable in identifying biomarkers for PM2.5 exposure-related lung pathogenesis with translational potential.

经“O”点穿刺与传统单侧入路治疗L_(5)椎体骨质疏松性压缩性骨折

背景:单侧穿刺入路经皮穿刺球囊扩张椎体后凸成形治疗骨质疏松性椎体压缩骨折优于双侧穿刺入路,由于L_(5)特殊解剖形态和位置特殊,传统单侧穿刺入路治疗L_(5)椎体骨质疏松性椎体压缩骨折适用性差,因此提出“O”点穿刺入路来解决该问题。目的:比较经横突基底部-椎弓根后上部-关节突外侧交点(“O”点)入路与传统单侧入路经皮穿刺球囊扩张椎体后凸成形治疗L_(5)椎体骨质疏松性压缩骨折的疗效差异。方法:回顾性分析西南医科大学附属医院2020年1月至2022年12月收治的54例L_(5)椎体骨质疏松性压缩骨折行经“O”点入路或传统经皮穿刺球囊扩张椎体后凸成形治疗的患者,根据手术方式分为2组,“O”点入路组(A组)29例,传统入路组(B组)25例。术前在X射线正位片测量A组“O”点与髂棘位置及穿刺角度;比较两组术前与术后第2天、末次随访的局部Cobb角、椎体前缘、中部高度及骨水泥分布情况;术前、术后第2天及末次随访采用疼痛目测类比评分、Oswestry功能障碍指数评估患者疼痛缓解情况与日常生活能力,记录手术相关并发症。结果与结论:①A组手术时间、术中透视次数均少于B组,差异有显著性意义(P<0.05);两组术中出血量及骨水泥注射量差异无显著性意义;②两组患者术后第2天及末次随访疼痛目测类比评分、Oswestry功能障碍指数较术前明显降低,且A组降低比B组更明显(P<0.05);③“O”点位于双侧髂棘最高点连线之下平均距离1.23 cm;“O”点到髂棘平均横向距离2.89 cm;④两组患者末次随访Cobb角较术前明显改善(P<0.05),但两组间比较差异无显著性意义(P>0.05);⑤术后骨水泥分布,A组分布良好占97%(28/29),B组分布良好占88%(22/25),A组明显优于B组(P<0.05);⑥提示经“O”点穿刺入路与传统入路经皮穿刺球囊扩张椎体后凸成形治疗L_(5)椎体骨质疏松性压缩骨折疗效满意,但“O”点穿刺入路经皮穿刺球囊扩张椎体后凸成形治疗骨水泥分布更满意,还可避免高髂棘对L_(5)椎体穿刺入路的影响。

Mechanism by which Rab5 promotes regeneration and functional recovery of zebrafish Mauthner axons

Rab5 is a GTPase protein that is involved in intracellular membrane trafficking. It functions by binding to various effector proteins and regulating cellular responses, including the formation of transport vesicles and their fusion with the cellular membrane. Rab5 has been reported to play an important role in the development of the zebrafish embryo;however, its role in axonal regeneration in the central nervous system remains unclear. In this study, we established a zebrafish Mauthner cell model of axonal injury using single-cell electroporation and two-photon axotomy techniques. We found that overexpression of Rab5 in single Mauthner cells promoted marked axonal regeneration and increased the number of intra-axonal transport vesicles. In contrast, treatment of zebrafish larvae with the Rab kinase inhibitor CID-1067700markedly inhibited axonal regeneration in Mauthner cells. We also found that Rab5 activated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K) during axonal repair of Mauthner cells and promoted the recovery of zebrafish locomotor function. Additionally, rapamycin, an inhibitor of the mechanistic target of rapamycin downstream of PI3K, markedly hindered axonal regeneration. These findings suggest that Rab5 promotes the axonal regeneration of injured zebrafish Mauthner cells by activating the PI3K signaling pathway.

酸枣仁提取物调控miR-7b-3p/5-羟色胺1A受体表达促进骨生长

背景:前期研究发现,酸枣仁提取物通过提高脑组织5-羟色胺1A受体(serotonin 1A receptor,5-HT1AR)表达,使之与5-羟色胺结合,延长小鼠慢波睡眠,促进生长激素的分泌,从而使骨生长。5-HT1AR作为一种蛋白质,其表达丰度受到miRNA的调控。作者推测酸枣仁提取物可能通过miRNA调控5-HT1AR的表达从而发挥药物作用。目的:观察酸枣仁提取物通过干预小鼠脑组织中miR-7b-3p/5-HT1AR通路对骨骼生长的影响。方法:①将昆明种小鼠分为正常对照组、用药组(灌胃酸枣仁提取物0.320 mg/g),阳性对照组(灌胃酸枣仁皂甙0.013 mg/g)和酸枣仁提取物+5-HT1AR抑制剂组(灌胃酸枣仁提取物最后3 d同时每天侧脑室注射5-HT1AR选择性抑制剂P-MPPF 8μg),25 d后观察酸枣仁提取物对小鼠骨生长、血清生长激素水平及脑组织5-HT1AR表达的影响;②基因芯片法筛选由酸枣仁提取物引起的骨生长小鼠与普通小鼠脑组织差异表达的miRNAs,并通过PCR验证和双荧光素酶报告基因实验证实筛选的miR-7b-3p与5-HT1AR的调控关系;③体外培养小鼠脑皮质细胞并鉴定,利用Western blot法观察酸枣仁提取物对脑皮质细胞中5-HT1AR表达的影响;④将昆明种小鼠分为正常对照组、用药组、miR-7b-3p inhibitor组、用药+miR-7b-3p mimics组、阳性对照组,观察各组小鼠脑组织5-HT1AR表达及5-羟色胺与5-HT1AR结合活性;⑤将SD大鼠分为正常对照组、用药组、miR-7b-3p inhibitor组、用药+miR-7b-3p mimics组、阳性对照组,观察各组大鼠慢波睡眠的变化。结果与结论:①酸枣仁提取物可以促进小鼠体长、胫骨增长,促进生长激素分泌,提高脑组织5-HT1AR含量;②基因芯片筛选出差异表达的miRNAs个数为16个,其中上调有13个,下调有3个;生物信息学预测下调miR-7b-3p可以调控5-HT1AR表达,且双荧光素酶报告基因实验证实二者有直接调控关系;③酸枣仁提取物和沉默脑皮质细胞中miR-7b-3p表达可以引起5-HT1AR高表达;沉默miR-7b-3p后小鼠脑组织5-HT1AR表达、5-羟色胺与5-HT1AR结合活性及生长激素分泌均升高;过表达miR-7b-3p后小鼠脑组织5-HT1AR表达、5-羟色胺与5-HT1AR结合活性及生长激素分泌均降低;大鼠慢波睡眠期也相应延长或缩短。结果表明,酸枣仁提取物能够降低脑组织的miR-7b-3p水平,同时增加5-HT1AR的表达量。这种机制有助于延长慢波睡眠周期,并且促进生长激素的生成,对骨骼生长有积极影响,为使用酸枣仁提取物作为促进骨骼生长的潜在手段提供了科学依据。

C-X-C chemokine receptor type 5+CD8+T cells as immune regulators in hepatitis Be antigen-positive chronic hepatitis B under interferonalpha treatment

BACKGROUND C-X-C chemokine receptor type 5(CXCR5)+CD8+T cells represent a unique immune subset with dual roles,functioning as cytotoxic cells in persistent viral infections while promoting B cell responses.Despite their importance,the specific role of CXCR5+CD8+T cells in chronic hepatitis B(CHB),particularly during interferon-alpha(IFN-α)treatment,is not fully understood.This study aims to elucidate the relationship between CXCR5+CD8+T cells and sustained serologic response(SR)in patients undergoing 48 weeks of pegylated IFN-α(peg-IFN-α)treatment for CHB.AIM To elucidate the relationship between CXCR5+CD8+T cells and sustained SR in patients undergoing 48 weeks of peg-IFN-αtreatment for CHB.METHODS This study enrolled 60 patients with hepatitis Be antigen(HBeAg)-positive CHB undergoing 48 weeks of peg-IFN-αtreatment.Participants were assessed for eligibility based on criteria such as persistent HBsAg-positive status for at least six months,HBeAb-negative,hepatitis B virus DNA levels exceeding 2×104 copies/mL,and alanine aminotransferase(ALT)levels between 2 and 10 times the upper limit of normal.Blood samples were collected at baseline and at weeks 12,24,48,and a 24-week treatment-free follow-up(week 72)to measure serum interleukin(IL)-21 concentration via ELISA and to analyze CXCR5 and programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1)expression on CD8+T cells by flow cytometry,CXCR5 is a chemokine receptor that directs immune cells to specific tissues,while PD-L1 is a protein that regulates immune responses by inhibiting T cell activity.RESULTS Patients with CHB exhibited significantly lower levels of circulating CXCR5+CD8+T cells compared to healthy controls(P<0.01).Notably,CXCR5+CD8+T cells were prominently expressed in patients who achieved sustained SR compared to non-SR(NSR).A significant correlation was observed between CXCR5 and PD-L1 expression(r=-0.189,P=0.002).However,there was no significant correlation between serum IL-21 levels and CXCR5+CD8+lymphocytes(r=-0.03,P=0.625)or serum ALT levels(r=0.026,P=0.678).CONCLUSION The enhanced expression of CXCR5+CD8+T cells in patients achieving HBeAg seroconversion during IFN-αtreatment suggests that these cells play a crucial role in antiviral immune responses against hepatitis B.This study highlights the potential of CXCR5+CD8+T cells as immune regulators in CHB,which may inform future therapeutic strategies to optimize antiviral treatments.

miR-192-5p靶向CKIP-1促进骨质疏松患者骨髓间充质干细胞成骨分化

背景:酪蛋白激酶2结合蛋白1(casein kinase 2-interaction protein-1,CKIP-1)是一种重要的骨形成负调控基因,其敲除鼠骨质显著增强、骨形成和骨密度也显著提高。而miRNA作为较早发现的小分子调控物,对大多数编码基因具有调控作用,在成骨分化中发挥重要作用。目的:探讨miRNA/CKIP-1对骨质疏松患者骨髓间充质干细胞成骨分化的影响及其分子机制。方法:采用miRNA-Seq技术检测2022年3-6月在开封市中心医院骨外科就诊32例骨质疏松患者及同期体检中心健康人群骨髓间充质干细胞中miRNA的变化情况;利用Targetscan网站预测靶向调控CKIP-1的miRNA,利用荧光素酶报告基因实验检测miRNA与CKIP-1启动子区DNA的结合;在骨髓间充质干细胞中转染miR-192-5p类似物(miR-192-5p mimics)/阴性对照(NC mimics)或miR-192-5p抑制剂(miR-192-5p inhibitor)/阴性对照(NC inhibitor),成骨诱导后第7,14天,通过实时荧光定量PCR技术及茜素红染色检测成骨标志基因Runt相关转录因子2(Runx2)、骨钙素、抗骨桥蛋白、骨唾液蛋白及CKIP-1的表达水平和骨髓间充质干细胞向成骨细胞分化的情况;采用蛋白质免疫印迹实验及茜素红染色检测miR-192-5p/CKIP-1/轴对细胞成骨分化的的调控作用。结果与结论:与健康组相比,骨质疏松组有16个miRNA表达明显升高,53个miRNA表达明显降低(P<0.05);利用Targetscan网站预测,并通过荧光素酶报告基因实验验证,发现miR-192-5p与CKIP-1有互补的核苷酸序列(P<0.05);过表达miR-192-5p,Runx2、骨钙素、骨桥素和骨唾液蛋白的表达水平显著升高(P<0.05),抑制miR-192-5p,Runx2、骨钙素、骨桥素和骨唾液蛋白的表达水平显著降低(P<0.05),而沉默CKIP-1的表达后,Runx2、骨钙素及骨桥素的蛋白水平增加(P<0.05),逆转了敲低miR-192-5p对细胞成骨分化的抑制作用。上述结果证实,miR-192-5p在骨质疏松症中表达降低;miR-192-5p通过靶向抑制CKIP-1的表达,促进骨髓间充质干细胞成骨分化。

Inhibiting ceramide synthase 5 expression in microglia decreases neuroinflammation after spinal cord injury

Microglia,the resident monocyte of the central nervous system,play a crucial role in the response to spinal cord injury.However,the precise mechanism remains unclear.To investigate the molecular mechanisms by which microglia regulate the neuroinflammatory response to spinal cord injury,we performed single-cell RNA sequencing dataset analysis,focusing on changes in microglial subpopulations.We found that the MG1 subpopulation emerged in the acute/subacute phase of spinal cord injury and expressed genes related to cell pyroptosis,sphingomyelin metabolism,and neuroinflammation at high levels.Subsequently,we established a mouse model of contusive injury and performed intrathecal injection of siRNA and molecular inhibitors to validate the role of ceramide synthase 5 in the neuroinflammatory responses and pyroptosis after spinal cord injury.Finally,we established a PC12-BV2 cell co-culture system and found that ceramide synthase 5 and pyroptosis-associated proteins were highly expressed to induce the apoptosis of neuron cells.Inhibiting ceramide synthase 5 expression in a mouse model of spinal cord injury effectively reduced pyroptosis.Furthermore,ceramide synthase 5-induced pyroptosis was dependent on activation of the NLRP3 signaling pathway.Inhibiting ceramide synthase 5 expression in microglia in vivo reduced neuronal apoptosis and promoted recovery of neurological function.Pla2g7 formed a“bridge”between sphingolipid metabolism and ceramide synthase 5-mediated cell death by inhibiting the NLRP3 signaling pathway.Collectively,these findings suggest that inhibiting ceramide synthase 5 expression in microglia after spinal cord injury effectively suppressed microglial pyroptosis mediated by NLRP3,thereby exerting neuroprotective effects.

RNA 5-methylcytosine regulates YBX2-dependent liquid-liquid phase separation

5-Methylcytosine(m^(5)C)is one of the most prevalent internal modifications of messenger RNA(mRNA)in higher eukaryotes.Here we report that Y box protein 2(YBX2)serves as a novel mammalian m^(5)C binding protein to undergo liquid-liquid phase separation(LLPS)both in vivo and in vitro,and this YBX2-dependent LLPS is enhanced by m^(5)C marked RNA.Furthermore,the crystal structure assay revealed that W100,as a distinct m^(5)C binding site of YBX2,is critical in mediating YBX2 phase separation.Our study resolved the relationship between RNA m^(5)C and phase separation,providing a clue for a new regulatory layer of epigenetics.
