Abstract Viruses, as opportunistic intracellular parasites, hijack the cellular machinery of host cells to support their survival and propagation. Numerous viral proteins are subjected host-mediated post-translational modifications. Here, we demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (SARS2-NP) is SUMOylated on lysine 65 residue, which efficiently mediates SARS2-NP’s ability in homo-oligomerization, RNA association, liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). Thereby innate antiviral immune...

Manure amendment generally bolsters soil organisms but not all bacteria equally. To understand why different taxa respond differently, we used shotgun metagenomic approaches to profile functional potentials and correlate them with taxon abundances. A originally unproductive was reclaimed using commercial manure finally became productive. The abundance of Firmicutes in the decreased, whereas that Bacteroidetes Proteobacteria increased after addition. Thirty-nine KEGG modules were...

Renal podocyte injury, apoptosis and autophagy are involved in the occurrence development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Kaempferol (KPF) has promotion inhibition properties miscellaneous diseases, but these functions DN have not yet been elucidated.We used db/db mice to evaluate protective role KPF on DN. The anti-DN effect was evaluated by urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio pathological changes kidney tissue. Injury podocytes observed through Transmission electron microscopy....

Abstract Ferroptosis is recently discovered programmed cell death, induced by cellular ferrous ion bursts and subsequent Fenton reactions. The iron source in tumor cells limited due to tightly controlled metabolism. Since hierarchical architecture rarely considered ferroptosis cancer treatment, multilayer Fe 2 O 3 architectures (UF@PPDF NPs) are developed modulating ultra‐small γ‐Fe nanocrystal assemblies, further conjugating targeting folic acid (FA), chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin...

Abstract Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease with strong heritability, but recent evidence suggests that epigenetic dysregulation may also contribute to the pathogenesis of ASD. Especially, increased methylation at MECP2 promoter and decreased expression were observed in brains ASD patients. However, causative relationship has not been established. In this study, we achieved locus-specific transcription start site (TSS) Mecp2 Neuro-2a cells mice, using...

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a worldwide public health problem; its incidence increasing it now the sixth most common cancer type worldwide. As indicated by existing studies, ferroptosis contributes to HNSCC progression Tanshinone IIA (TanIIA) may exert therapeutic effects via affecting ferroptosis. However, underlying mechanisms have remained be clarified. Therefore, main aim of present study was screen investigate key genes in regulating human hypopharynx line FaDu...

Abstract. Vegetation plays a key role in water conservation the southern Qilian Mountains (northwestern China), located upper reaches of Heihe River. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria are crucial for protection nitrogen supply vegetation region. In present study, nifH gene clone libraries were established to determine differences between nitrogen-fixing bacterial communities Potentilla parvifolia shrubland and Carex alrofusca meadow Mountains. All identified clones belonged Proteobacteria. At genus...

Breast cancer development is associated with macrophage infiltration and differentiation in the tumor microenvironment. Our previous study highlights crucial function of reactive oxygen species (ROS) enhancing during disruption mammary tissue polarity. However, regulation ROS ROS-associated breast has not been fully determined. Previous studies identified retinoid orphan nuclear receptor alpha (RORα) as a potential suppressor human cancer. In present study, we showed that significantly...

A field experiment was conducted to explore the effects of combined application organic and chemical fertilizers (organic-chemical fertilizers) on reclaimed soil fertility rice yield. The involved five treatments: no nitrogen (N) fertilizer (CK1), 100% N (CK2), 40% chicken manure + 60% (T1), vermicompost (T2), rapeseed meal (T3). Organic-chemical maintained or increased Rice yields T2 T3 by 6.7% 8.9%, respectively, as compared with CK2. T1 showed similar value yield contents C (SOC), total...

Head and neck cancer is the main cause of death worldwide, with squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) being second most frequent subtype. HNSCC poses significant health threats due to its high incidence poor prognosis, underscoring urgent need for advanced research. Histone modifications play a crucial role in regulation gene expression influencing various biological processes. In context HNSCC, aberrant histone are increasingly recognized as critical contributors development pathologic...

Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments for colorectal cancer (CRC), but due to intrinsic resistance cells or caused by long-term radiotherapy, effectiveness this treatment limited some CRC patients. Consequently, identifying novel sensitization strategies essential. This study identifies Noxa1 as a marker linked radiotherapy in CRC, suggesting its potential prognostic biomarker patients with CRC. The found that was significantly overexpressed radiotherapy-resistant patients, correlating...
