Previous studies have indicated that O-alkyl and o-benzyl hesperetin derivative-1 L (HD-1 L) has anti-inflammatory and hepato-protective effects in CCl4-induced liver injury. However, its effect on ALI and underlying mechanism has not been elucidated. This study was designed to evaluate the protective effects of HD-1 L on alcoholic liver injury and reveal the underlying mechanisms. ALI model was established in male C57BL/6 J mice (aged 6-8 weeks) by Gao-Binge protocol. The mice were received different doses of HD-1 L (25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg) by daily intragastric administration, respectively. Liver function and inflammation were measured. Mechanism underlying the anti-inflammatory and hepato-protective effect of HD-1 L were studied in RAW264.7 cells. In alcoholic liver injury mice, HD-1 L effectively improved the liver pathology, and remarkably reduced the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (T-CHO) in serum. Moreover, HD-1 L markedly suppressed inflammation in vivo and inhibited the secretion of inflammatory factors in vitro. Our results showed that HD-1 L decreased the activity of Bromodomain-containing Protein 2 (BRD2) and inhibited expression of BRD2 in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, HD-1 L further alleviated alcohol-induced inflammation after blocking BRD2 with inhibitor (JQ1) or BRD2 small interfering (si)-RNA in RAW264.7 cells. Besides, HD-1 L failed to effectively exert its anti-inflammatory effects after over expression of BRD2. In addition, HD-1 L significantly inhibited the phosphorylation and activation of NF-κB-P65 mediated by BRD2. In conclusion, HD-1 L alleviated liver injury and inflammation mainly by inhibiting BRD2-NF-κB signaling pathway, and HD-1 L may be a potential anti-inflammatory compound in treatment of alcoholic liver disease.
The involvement of certain circular RNAs (circRNAs) in the development of glioma has been revealed. CircRNA periostin (circPOSTN) was validated to be positively associated with glioma cell growth and metastasis. However, the mechanism underlying circPOSTN in glioma tumorigenesis remain vague.
The expression of circPOSTN, KIF1B (Kinesin Family Member 1B) and miR-185-5p was detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. In vitro assays were conducted using cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, EdU assay, flow cytometry, Western blot, and transwell assay, respectively. The direct interactions between miR-185-5p and circPOSTN or KIF1B was confirmed by using dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays.
CircPOSTN was highly expressed in glioma tissues and cells. Knockdown of circPOSTN restrained glioma cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro, as well as hindered glioma xenograft growth in vivo. Mechanistically, circPOSTN acted as miR-185-5p sponge to up-regulate the expression of its target KIF1B. Moreover, miR-185-5p inhibition reversed the anticancer effects of circPOSTN knockdown on glioma tumorigenesis, and miR-185-5p re-expression suppressed the malignant phenotype of glioma cells via targeting KIF1B.
CircPOSTN acted as an oncogene to expedite glioma tumorigenesis via targeting miR-185-5p/KIF1B axis, indicating a potential therapeutic target for glioma.

However, the role of miR-511-3p within the AD-MSCs -derived EV in SCI is largely unknown. Western blotting results demonstrated the secretion of EVs derived from AD-MSCs under hypoxia (Hyp-EVs) was more than those under normoxia (Nor-EVs), and miR-511-3p expression was more enriched in Hyp-EVs. PC12 cells were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce cell damage. AD-MSCs were transfected with miR-511-3p mimic or miR-511-3p inhibitor to induce EVs-miR-511-3p overexpression or silencing. Cells treated with Hyp-EVs-miR-511-3p mimic reduced LPS-induced apoptosis, alleviated inflammation and promoted proliferation, while cells treated with Hyp-EVs-miR-511-3p inhibitor aggravated LPS-induced apoptosis and inflammation, and suppressed proliferation. Luciferase reporter gene assay revealed tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) was a target downstream gene of miR-511-3p. A series of gain- and loss-of-function experiments verified that TRAF6 could antagonize the effects of Hyp-EVs-miR-511-3p on inflammation, cell apoptosis and viability. Furthermore, cells treated with CYM5541, an agonist of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3 (S1PR3), reversed the inhibitory effect of Hyp-EVs-miR-511-3p mimic on S1PR3 expression, inflammation and cell apoptosis. Finally, intravenously injection of Hyp-EVs-miR-511-3p mimic into SCI model rats obviously reduced inflammation and promoted neurological function recovery. In conclusion, EVs-derived miR-511-3p from hypoxia preconditioned AD-MSCs ameliorates SCI via TRAF6/S1P/NF-κB pathway, which indicates that miR-511-3p may be a potential therapeutic target for SCI.The major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) transactivator, nucleotide binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family caspase recruitment domain containing 5 (NLRC5), serves as a target for immune evasion in many cancers, including endometrial cancer (EC). An inhibition of autophagy can contribute to immunotherapy by assisting the MHC-I-mediated antigen presentation in cancer. However, the underlying mechanism for autophagy-regulated MHC-I in EC remains unclear. In this study, we found that autophagy was upregulated in EC tissues when compared to that in normal endometrial tissues. MHC I and NLRC5 expressions were lower in EC endometrium than in normal endometrium. Autophagy inhibited the MHC-I genes expression in vitro. Furthermore, a negative correlation was found between NLRC5 and LC3 levels, and LC3 interacted with NLRC5 to inhibit NLRC5-mediated MHC-I antigen presentation pathway in vitro and in vivo. Thus, our findings demonstrated that an upregulation of LC3 in EC patients may contribute to tumor immune escape by restricting the NLRC5-mediated MHC-I antigen presentation pathway, signifying inhibiting LC3 and promoting NLRC5 may be a promising immunotherapy strategy in the management of EC.Comprehensive cancer genome studies have revealed genetically-defined subtypes of prostate cancer with distinct truncal driver mutations. Because prostate cancer has been largely seen as a rather uniform disease, the clinical significance of this discovery remained largely obscure. However, recent findings imply distinct biological features and therapeutic vulnerabilities linked to specific truncal mutations. Here we review our current understanding of prostate cancers harboring recurrent point mutations in the ubiquitin ligase adaptor protein SPOP and discuss opportunities for future clinical translation. More specifically, activation of the androgen receptor (AR) signaling emerges as the key oncogenic pathway. SPOP-mutant prostate cancer patients respond to AR inhibition in various clinical settings. Molecular insights on how mutant SPOP promotes tumorigenesis may open more specific therapeutic avenues which, in combination with conventional AR-targeting agents, could improve the outcome of patients with SPOP-mutant prostate cancer.In this research retrieval effects of natural yellow (NY) on the performance of carmoisine (CAR) inhibited bovine liver catalase (BLC) was studied using multispectral and theoretical methods. Kinetic studies showed that CAR inhibited BLC through competitive inhibition (IC50 value of 2.24 × 10-6 M) while the addition of NY recover the activity of CAR-BLC up to 82% in comparison with the control enzyme. Circular dichroism data revealed that NY can repair the structural changes of BLC, affected by CAR. dcemm1 Furthermore, an equilibrium dialysis study indicated that NY could reduce the stability of the CAR-catalase complex. The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) data analysis indicated a high affinity of NY to BLC compared to CAR and the binding of NY led to a decrease in the affinity of the enzyme to the inhibitor. On the other hand, fluorescence and molecular docking studies showed that the quenching mechanism of BLC by CAR occurs through a static quenching process, and van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding play a crucial role in the binding of CAR to BLC. MLSD data demonstrated that NY could increase the binding energy of CAR-BLC complex from -7.72 kJ mol-1 to -5.9 kJ mol-1, leading to complex instability and catalase activity salvage.Altering caffeine's negative physiological effects and extending its duration of activity is an active area of research; however, deuteration as a means of achieving these goals is unexplored. Deuteration substitutes one or more of the hydrogen atoms of a substance with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen that contains an extra neutron. Deuteration can potentially alter the metabolic profile of a substance, while maintaining its pharmacodynamic properties. d9-Caffeine is a deuterated isotopologue of caffeine with the nine hydrogens contained in the 1, 3, and 7 methyl groups of caffeine substituted with deuterium. d9-Caffeine may prove to be an alternative to caffeine that may be consumed with less frequency, at lower doses, and with less exposure to downstream active metabolites of caffeine. Characterization of d9-caffeine's genotoxic potential, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacokinetic behavior is critical in establishing how it may differ from caffeine. d9-Caffeine was non-genotoxic with and without metabolic activation in both a bacterial reverse mutation assay and a human mammalian cell micronucleus assay at concentrations up to the ICH concentration limits. d9-Caffeine exhibited a prolonged systemic and brain exposure time in rats as compared to caffeine following oral administration. The adenosine receptor antagonist potency of d9-caffeine was similar to caffeine.The 'ethylene glycol ethers' (EGE) are a broad family of solvents and hydraulic fluids produced through the reaction of ethylene oxide and a monoalcohol. Certain EGE derived from methanol and ethanol are well known to cause toxicity to the testes and fetotoxicity and that this is caused by the common metabolites methoxy and ethoxyacetic acid, respectively. There have been numerous published claims that EGE fall into the category of 'endocrine disruptors' often without substantiated evidence. This review systematically evaluates all of the available and relevant in vitro and in vivo data across this family of substances using an approach based around the EFSA/ECHA 2018 guidance for the identification of endocrine disruptors. The conclusion reached is that there is no significant evidence to show that EGE target any endocrine organs or perturb endocrine pathways and that any toxicity that is seen occurs by non-endocrine modes of action.
