DNA methylation abnormality is closely related to tumor occurrence and development. Chemical inhibitors targeting methyltransferase (DNMTis) have been used in treating cancer. However, the impact of DNMTis on antitumor immunity has not well elucidated. In this study, we show that zebularine (a demethylating agent) treatment cancer cells led increased levels interferon response a cyclic guanosine monophosphate-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS)- stimulator genes (STING)-dependent manner. This also...

Summary Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of plant‐specific steroid hormones, which induces the rapid nuclear localization positive transcriptional factors BRASSINAZOLE RESISTANT1/2 (BZR1/2). However, mechanisms underlying regulation nucleocytoplasmic shuttling BZR1 remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we show that scaffold protein Receptor for Activated C Kinase 1 (RACK1) from Arabidopsis is involved in BR signaling cascades through mediating BZR1, tightly retained cytosol by...

DNA transfection is often the bottleneck of research and gene therapy practices. To explore mechanism regulating transgene expression, we investigated role cGAS-STING signaling pathway, which induces type-I interferons in response to DNA. We confirmed that deletion cGAS enhances expression at protein level by ~2- 3-fold. This enhancement inversely correlated with interferon stimulated genes (ISGs), suppress transfected mRNA level. Mechanistically, activates pathway OAS family proteins,...

Abstract Background Saussurea involucrata survives in extreme arctic conditions and is very cold-resistant. This species grows rocky, mountainous areas with elevations of 2400–4100 m, which are snow-covered year-round subject to freezing temperatures. S. ’s ability survive an low-temperature environment suggests that it has particularly high photosynthetic efficiency, providing a magnificent model, rich gene pool, for the analysis plant cold stress response. Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate...

Potentiation of traditional antibiotics is significance for combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria that have become a severe threat to human and animal health. Here, we report 1 min co-treatment with n-butanol greatly specifically enhances the bactericidal action aminoglycosides by 5 orders magnitude against stationary-phase Staphylococcus aureus cells, n-propanol isobutanol showing less potency. This combined treatment also rapidly kills various S. persisters, methicillin-resistant (MRSA)...

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has caused significant losses in the pork industry, but mechanism of PEDV infection is still unclear. On basis our RNA-Seq data and due to potential role sialic acid as a coreceptor, we investigated function acid-binding Ig-like lectin 15 (Siglec-15) determine its receptor infection. We found that Siglec-15 enhances by promoting viral adsorption host cells. Coimmunoprecipitation immunofluorescence assays revealed binds S1 subunit M protein PEDV....

Abstract The pandemics induced by emerging SARS‐CoV‐2 variants and monkeypox virus infection have triggered the urgent need for broad‐spectrum vaccines. Except “super” antigen designs, pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonist‐based adjuvants might blaze a new trail, through enhancing immune response of conserved epitopes shared among cross‐protection. Ideal with proper adjustments could be conveniently applied to different antigens types in pandemics. However, general strategies modulating...
