A multi-perspective deep learning framework for enhancer characterization and identification

Enhancers are vital elements in the genome that boost the transcriptional activity of neighboring genes and are essential in regulating cell-specific gene expression. Therefore, accurately identifying and characterizing enhancers is essential for comprehending gene regulatory networks and the development of related diseases. This study introduces MPDL-Enhancer, a novel multi-perspective deep learning framework aimed at enhancer characterization and identification. In this study, enhancer sequences are encoded using the dna2vec model along with features derived from the structural properties of DNA sequences. Subsequently, these representations are processed through a novel dual-scale deep neural network designed to discern subtle correlations and extended interactions embedded within the semantic content of DNA. The predictive phase of our methodology employs a Support Vector Machine classifier to render the final classification. To rigorously assess the efficacy of our approach, a comprehensive evaluation was executed utilizing an independent test dataset, thereby substantiating the robustness and accuracy of our model. Our methodology demonstrated superior performance over existing computational techniques, with an accuracy (ACC) of 81.00 %, a sensitivity (SN) of 79.00 %, and specificity (SP) of 83.00 %. The innovative dual-scale deep neural network and the unique feature representation strategy contributed to this performance improvement. MPDL-Enhancer has effectively characterized enhancer sequences and achieved excellent predictive performance. Building upon this foundation, we conducted an interpretability analysis of the model, which can assist researchers in identifying key features and patterns that affect the functionality of enhancers, thereby promoting a deeper understanding of gene regulatory networks.

Dual color carbon dots for simultaneous dynamic fluorescence tracking of mitochondria and lysosomes

The development of fluorescent probes to monitor mitochondria and lysosomes will be helpful not only to realize the status monitoring of the organelles, but also to gain insights into their functions in both healthy and diseased states. Carbon Dots (CDs), as a nanomaterial with excellent properties, have provided new tools and methods for research in organelle imaging in recent years. In this study, we synthesized green fluorescence-emitting carbon dots (G-CDs) with mitochondria-targeting ability and red fluorescence-emitting carbon dots (R-CDs) with lysosome-targeting ability by using the same precursors. G-CDs are brightly with a quantum yield of up to 51.8 % and R-CDs have a long-wavelength emission of 611 nm. Based on the unique properties of G-CDs and R-CDs, we observed the changes of mitochondria during apoptosis and mitochondrial autophagy in HeLa cells by using G-CDs. And the dynamics of lysosomes in the inhibition of cellular autophagy and cellular necrosis were observed by utilizing the R-CDs. Furthermore, we observed human intestinal organoids samples stained by G-CDs and R-CDs, extending the relevant applications of carbon dots imaging to the organoids field, which brings forth new possibilities for research and drug development of related diseases.

Causal relationships between neuropsychiatric disorders and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study

BackgroundIncreasing evidences suggest that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with neuropsychiatric disorders. Nevertheless, whether there were causal associations between them remained vague. A causal association between neuropsychiatric disorders and NAFLD was investigated in this study.MethodsWe assessed the published genome-wide association study summary statistics for NAFLD, seven mental disorder-related diseases and six central nervous system dysfunction-related diseases. The causal relationships were first assessed using two-sample and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR). Then, sensitivity analyses were performed, followed by a reverse MR analysis to determine whether reverse causality is possible. Finally, we performed replication analyses and combined the findings from the above studies.ResultsOur meta-analysis results showed NAFLD significantly increased the risk of anxiety disorders (OR = 1.016, 95% CI = 1.010–1.021, P value < 0.0001). In addition, major depressive disorder was the potential risk factor for NAFLD (OR = 1.233, 95% CI = 1.063–1.430, P value = 0.006). Multivariable MR analysis showed that the causal effect of major depressive disorder on NAFLD remained significant after considering body mass index, but the association disappeared after adjusting for the effect of waist circumference. Furthermore, other neuropsychiatric disorders and NAFLD were not found to be causally related.ConclusionsThese results implied causal relationships of NAFLD with anxiety disorders and Major Depressive Disorder. This study highlighted the need to recognize and understand the connection between neuropsychiatric disorders and NAFLD to prevent the development of related diseases.

Recent Advances in Detection of Hydroxyl Radical by Responsive Fluorescence Nanoprobes.

Hydroxyl radical (•OH), a highly reactive oxygen species (ROS), is assumed as one of the most aggressive free radicals. This radical has a detrimental impact on cells as it can react with different biological substrates leading to pathophysiological disorders, including inflammation, mitochondrion dysfunction, and cancer. Quantification of this free radical in-situ plays critical roles in early diagnosis and treatment monitoring of various disorders, like macrophage polarization and tumor cell development. Luminescence analysis using responsive probes has been an emerging and reliable technique for in-situ detection of various cellular ROS, and some recently developed •OH responsive nanoprobes have confirmed the association with cancer development. This paper aims to summarize the recent advances in the characterization of •OH in living organisms using responsive nanoprobes, covering the production, the sources of •OH, and biological function, especially in the development of related diseases followed by the discussion of luminescence nanoprobes for •OH detection.

Advances of proteostasis network and its stability maintenance mechanism

Protein is fundamental to life, as it generates protein variants. The maintenance of a dynamic equilibrium in these protein variants, known as protein homeostasis, is crucial for cellular function. Various factors, both endogenous and exogenous, can disrupt protein homeostasis during protein synthesis. These factors include translational error, and biological functions mediated by regulatory factors, and more. When cell accumulate proteins with folding errors, it impairs protein homeostasis, leading to the development of related diseases. In response to protein folding errors, multiple monitoring mechanisms are activated to mediate pathways that sustain the dynamic equilibrium. This review highlights the complex relationships within the proteostasis network, which are influenced by a variety of factors. These insights potentially provide new directions for studying diseases caused by protein synthesis errors.

Role of lymphatic endothelium specific hyaluronan receptor 1 in virus infection and associated diseases.

Lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor 1 (LYVE-1) serves as a prominent marker for lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) and is pivotal in the process of lymphangiogenesis, a critical factor in cancer development and metastasis. Overexpression of LYVE-1 has been observed in various cancers, where it is recognized as an adverse prognostic indicator. Targeting LYVE-1 has demonstrated inhibitory effects on tumor cell proliferation, migration, and the formation of lymph node metastases both in vitro and in vivo. While extensive research has focused on the role of LYVE-1 in cancer cells, its involvement in virus infection and associated diseases remains largely unexplored. This review consolidates recent findings regarding the expression of LYVE-1 and its functions in lymphangiogenesis during various viral infections and the development of related diseases, with a particular emphasis on Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus. Despite the limited available data, it is evident that further studies are essential to comprehensively understand the contribution of LYVE-1 to viral pathogenesis and oncogenesis.

Objectives: Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis is a dominant bacterium in infant gut, which plays a critical role in maintaining the health and development of infants. This study investigated the abilities of eight different strains of B. longum subsp. infantis to regulate the T helper (Th)1/Th2 balance. Methods: Eight B. longum subsp. infantis strains, including I2MI (FJSWXI2MIM1), I4MI [FJSWXI4MI (CCFM1270)], I4MNI (FJSWXI4MNIM1), I5TI (FJSWXI5TIM1), I6TI (FJSWXI6TIM1), I8TI [FJSWXI8TI (CCFM1271)], I10TI [FJSWXI10TI (CCFM1272)], and B6MNI [BJSWXB6MNIM1 (CCFM1269)], were gavaged to BALB/C pups in both female (n = 8) and male (n = 8) mice starting from 1 to 3 weeks old (1 × 109 CFU/day/mice). Selected immune cells were assessed by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry. Cytokines and immunoglobulins were determined by ELISA. Bacterial and bifidobacterial communities were determined by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and bifidobacterial groEL sequencing. Results: B. longum subsp. infantis I4MI and I8TI were shown to increase the ration of colonic IgG2a/IgE in male mice (P < 0.05). B6MNI was demonstrated to significantly increase the levels of colonic IFN-γ and IgG2a, as well as the ratio of IgG2a/IgE in female mice (P < 0.05). It was also shown to significantly increase the ratio of colonic IgG2a/IgE (P < 0.05) and reduce the level of colonic IL-4 in male mice (P < 0.05). Furthermore, B6MNI was demonstrated to regulate colonic JAK/STAT pathway in both male and female mice. I4MI, I5TI, and B6MNI were shown to increase the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium and B. longum subsp. infantis in both male and female mice, whereas I8TI was only shown to increase the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium and B. longum subsp. infantis in male mice (P < 0.05). Conclusion: These results indicated supplementation with B. longum subsp. infantis in early infancy may regulate the Th1/Th2 immune balance, which may prevent the development of related diseases.

The study of structure and function of human cell

Biological structure and function is the core field of life sciences, covering the complex organizational structure and various functions it undertakes. Cells are a very important structure and the basic unit of life activities, which means that without cells, all life activities cannot continue. So on this basis, we studied the function and structure of cells. The findings suggest that each organelle has a specific functional structure and that changes or mutations in the structure of these proteins or the arrangement of membrane proteins on the surface can lead to the development of related diseases, such as abnormalities in the Golgi apparatus leading to Alzheimer's disease Abnormalities in mitochondria can lead to lesions in muscles or the nervous system or even cancer, and mutations in the nucleus can cause babies to be born with various defects. Cells are the unit of life activities. Once the organelles are abnormal, different diseases will occur.

TGF-β/Smads signaling pathway, Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway, and VEGF: Their mechanisms and roles in vascular remodeling related diseases.

Vascular remodeling is a basic pathological process in various diseases characterized by abnormal changes in the morphology, structure, and function of vascular cells, such as migration, proliferation, hypertrophy, and apoptosis. Various growth factors and pathways are involved in the process of vascular remodeling. The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway, which is mainly mediated by TGF-β1, is an important factor in vascular wall enhancement during vascular development and regulates the vascular response to injury by promoting the accumulation of intimal tissue. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has an important effect on initiating the formation of blood vessels. The Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway also plays an important role in angiogenesis. In addition, studies have shown that there is a certain interaction between the TGF-β/Smads signaling pathway, Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway, and VEGF. Many studies have shown that in the development of atherosclerosis, hypertension, aneurysm, vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia, pulmonary hypertension, restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, and other diseases, various inflammatory reactions lead to changes in vascular structure and vascular microenvironment, which leads to vascular remodeling. The occurrence of vascular remodeling changes the morphology of blood vessels and thus changes the hemodynamics, which is the cause of further development of the disease process. Vascular remodeling can cause vascular smooth muscle cell dysfunction and vascular homeostasis regulation. This review aims to explore the mechanisms of the TGF-β/Smads signaling pathway, Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway, and vascular endothelial growth factor in vascular remodeling and related diseases. This paper is expected to provide new ideas for research on the occurrence and development of related diseases and provide a new direction for research on the treatment of related diseases.

Research trends on the relationship between Helicobacter pylori and microbiota: A bibliometric analysis.

Increasing evidence has indicated that Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with the complex microbiota in the digestive tract of the human body. We aimed to assess the research trends and hotspots in the field of H. pylori and microbiota using a quantitative method. The clinical studies on H. pylori and microbiota published from 2001 to 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science database. We visualized and analyzed countries/regions, institutions, authors, journals, and keywords through VOSviewer and CiteSpace software. The test techniques, specimen type, as well as microbiota variation after H. pylori infection and eradication were also evaluated. A total of 98 publications were finally identified, and the number of annual papers increased gradually. China showed its dominant position in the publication outputs, and Nanchang University was the most productive institution. Cong He, Xu Shu, and Yin Zhu published the highest number of papers, whereas Helicobacter was the most productive journal. "Helicobacter pylori" ranked highest in the keyword occurrences. 16S rRNA gene sequencing was the most frequently used method for microbiota analysis. Fecal samples had the highest frequency of use, followed by gastric mucosa and saliva. H. pylori infection was associated with the alterations of microbiota through the digestive tract, characterized by the enrichment of Helicobacter in the stomach. Triple and quadruple therapy were the most utilized eradication regimens, and probiotics supplementation therapy has been proven to reduce side effects and restore microbial diversity. This bibliometric analysis provides an overview of advancements in the field of H. pylori and microbiota. While numerous studies have been conducted on the correlation between H. pylori and the alterations of microbiota, future research is warranted to investigate the mechanisms underlying the interplay between H. pylori and other microbes in the development of related diseases.

Effects of multi-organ crosstalk on the physiology and pathology of adipose tissue.

In previous studies, adipocytes were found to play an important role in regulating whole-body nutrition and energy balance, and are also important in energy metabolism, hormone secretion, and immune regulation. Different adipocytes have different contributions to the body, with white adipocytes primarily storing energy and brown adipocytes producing heat. Recently discovered beige adipocytes, which have characteristics in between white and brown adipocytes, also have the potential to produce heat. Adipocytes interact with other cells in the microenvironment to promote blood vessel growth and immune and neural network interactions. Adipose tissue plays an important role in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes. Dysfunction in adipose tissue endocrine and immune regulation can cause and promote the occurrence and development of related diseases. Adipose tissue can also secrete multiple cytokines, which can interact with organs; however, previous studies have not comprehensively summarized the interaction between adipose tissue and other organs. This article reviews the effect of multi-organ crosstalk on the physiology and pathology of adipose tissue, including interactions between the central nervous system, heart, liver, skeletal muscle, and intestines, as well as the mechanisms of adipose tissue in the development of various diseases and its role in disease treatment. It emphasizes the importance of a deeper understanding of these mechanisms for the prevention and treatment of related diseases. Determining these mechanisms has enormous potential for identifying new targets for treating diabetes, metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases.

Synergistic effect of serum uric acid and body mass index trajectories during middle to late childhood on elevation of liver enzymes in early adolescence: Findings from the Ewha Birth and Growth Study.

We aimed to determine whether serum uric acid (SUA) and body mass index (BMI) trajectories in childhood have longitudinal association with liver enzymes in adolescence. We conducted a study using data from the Ewha Birth and Growth Cohort. Individual trajectories of SUA (n = 203) and BMI (n = 206) from 5, 7, and 9 years were defined by group-based trajectory modeling. Also, liver function enzymes were collected at 11 to 12 year of age (Aspartate Aminotransferase [AST], Alanine transaminase [ALT], and Gamma-glutamyl transferase [γ-GTP]) (n = 206). Using a generalized linear model, the effects of SUA trajectory and BMI trajectory on liver function enzymes were assessed. We also assessed the interaction effect of SUA and BMI trajectories on liver enzymes. For trajectory patterns, both SUA and BMI were classified into two distinct groups (High or Low). Both trajectory of SUA and BMI in childhood were positively associated with levels of liver enzymes at 11-12 years of age. The results showed that the combined effect of SUA and BMI trajectories on liver enzymes had a higher means in high-risk group (high SUA-high BMI trajectories group) than in low-risk group (low SUA-low BMI trajectories group) for ALT and γ-GTP, respectively. It remained significant association when adjusted for covariates. In addition, the interaction of BMI and SUA trajectories showed a significant synergistic effect. Elevated childhood SUA and BMI trajectories are associated with increased liver enzymes in beginning of adolescent. This finding suggesting that early interventions in SUA and BMI may need for optimization of liver enzymes as potential marker for development of related disease in later life.

Biological functions of CRTC2 and its role in metabolism-related diseases.

CREB-regulated transcription coactivator2 (CRTC2 or TORC2) is a transcriptional coactivator of CREB(cAMP response element binding protein), which affects human energy metabolism through cyclic adenosine phosphate pathway, Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, Sterol regulatory element binding protein 1(SREBP1), Sterol regulatory element binding protein 2 (SREBP2) and other substances Current studies on CRTC2 mainly focus on glucose and lipid metabolism, relevant studies show that CRTC2 can participate in the occurrence and development of related diseases by affecting metabolic homeostasis. It has been found that Crtc2 acts as a signaling regulator for cAMP and Ca2 + signaling pathways in many cell types, and phosphorylation at ser171 and ser275 can regulate downstream biological functions by controlling CRTC2 shuttling between cytoplasm and nucleus.

Epstein-Barr Virus Synergizes with BRD7 to Conquer c-Myc-Mediated Viral Latency Maintenance via Chromatin Remodeling.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) switches between latent and lytic phases in hosts, which is important in the development of related diseases. However, the underlying mechanism of controlling the viral biphasic life cycle and how EBV mediates this regulation remain largely unknown. This study identified bromodomain-containing protein 7 (BRD7) as a crucial host protein in EBV latent infection. Based on the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing of endogenous BRD7 in Burkitt lymphoma cells, we found that EBV drove BRD7 to regulate cellular and viral genomic loci, including the transcriptional activation of c-Myc, a recently reported regulator of EBV latency. Additionally, EBV-mediated BRD7 signals were enriched around the FUSE (far-upstream sequence element) site in chromosome 8 and the enhancer LOC108348026 in the lgH locus, which might activate the c-Myc alleles. Mechanically, EBV-encoded nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) bound to BRD7 and colocalized at promoter regions of the related genes, thus serving as cofactors for the maintenance of viral latency. Moreover, the disruption of BRD7 decreased the c-Myc expression, induced the BZLF1 expression, and reactivated the lytic cycle. Our findings reveal the unique role of BRD7 to synergize with EBV in maintaining the viral latency state via chromatin remodeling. This study paves the way for understanding the new molecular mechanism of EBV-induced chromatin remodeling and latent-lytic switch, providing novel therapeutic candidate targets for EBV persistent infection. IMPORTANCE When establishing persistent infection in most human hosts, EBV is usually latent. How the viral latency is maintained in cells remains largely unknown. c-Myc was recently reported to act as a controller of the lytic switch, while whether and how EBV regulates it remain to be explored. Here, we identified that BRD7 is involved in controlling EBV latency. We found that EBV-mediated BRD7 was enriched in both the normal promoter regions and the translocation alleles of c-Myc, and disruption of BRD7 decreased c-Myc expression to reactivate the lytic cycle. We also demonstrated that EBV-encoded EBNA1 bound to and regulated BRD7. Therefore, we reveal a novel mechanism by which EBV can regulate its infection state by coordinating with host BRD7 to target c-Myc. Our findings will help future therapeutic intervention strategies for EBV infection and pathogenesis.

ConspectusSome important biological species and microenvironments maintain a complex and delicate dynamic balance in life systems, participating in the regulation of various physiological processes and playing indispensable roles in maintaining the healthy development of living bodies. Disruption of their homeostasis in living organisms can cause various diseases and even death. Therefore, real time monitoring of these biological species and microenvironments during different physiological and pathological processes is of great significance. Fluorescent-probe-based techniques have been recognized as one of the most powerful tools for real time imaging in biological samples. In this Account, we introduce the representative works from our group in the field of fluorescent probes for biological imaging capable of detecting metal ions, small bioactive molecules, and the microenvironment. The design strategies of small molecule fluorescent probes and their applications in biological imaging will be discussed. By regulating the design strategy and mechanism (e.g., ICT, PeT, and FRET) of the electronic and spectral characteristics of the fluorescent platforms, these chemical probes show high selectivity and diverse functions, which can be used for imaging of various physiological and pathological processes. Through the exploration of the rational response mechanism and design strategy, combined with a variety of imaging techniques, such as super-resolution imaging, photoacoustic (PA) imaging, etc., we have realized multimode imaging of the important biological analytes from the subcellular level to the in vivo level, which provides powerful means to study the physiological and pathological functions of these species and microenvironments. This Account aims to offer insights and inspiration for the development of novel fluorescent probes for biological imaging, which could provide powerful tools for the study of chemical biology. Overall, we represent a series of turn-on/turn-off/ratiometric fluorescent/PA probes to visually and dynamically trace biological species and microenvironments in cells and even in vivo that seek higher resolution and depth molecular imaging to improve diagnostic methods and clarify new discoveries related to chemical biology. Our future efforts will be devoted to developing multiorganelle targeted fluorescent probes to study the mechanism of subcellular organelle interaction and employing various dual-mode probes of NIR II and PA imaging to investigate the development of related diseases and treat the related diseases at subcellular and in vivo levels.

Therefore, further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism accounting for the association between AQPs and vascular function-related diseases, which may lead to novel approaches to the prevention and treatment of those diseases. Here we will discuss the expression and physiological roles of AQPs in vascular tissues and summarize recent progress in the research on AQPs related cardiovascular diseases.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel quinazolinone derivatives as CRBN E3 ligase modulators

CRBN E3 ligase modulators, also anteriorly called immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), exhibit excellent pharmacological activity by degrading cereblon (CRBN) associated multiple substrates and have become an important field for drug development. These modulators such as Thalidomide, Lenalidomide and CC-122 abduct CRBN to adhere to IKZF1/3 and other neosubstrates, and then induce the degradation of these substrates, thus retarding the further development of related diseases. Herein, we reported a series of CC-122 derivatives that inhibit the proliferation of hematological malignant tumor cell lines. Studies further confirmed that several derivatives which exhibit strong anti-proliferation effect induce the significant degradation of IKZF1/3. In addition, we found that the best compound 14 (SIAIS355035) exhibits better degradation activity and better anti-proliferation activities than CC-122, especially in diffuse large B lymphoma cell lines. Moreover, the PK properties of compound 14 are pretty promising with excellent oral bioavailability. These results clarified the SAR of CC-122 derivatives preliminarily and suggested that compound 14 has great value for further studies as an ideal novel CRBN E3 ligase modulation drug.
