摘要:Acylated peptides composed of glucagon-like peptide- 1 receptor agonists modified with a fatty acid side chain are an important class of therapeutics for type 2 diabetes and obesity but are susceptible to an unusual physical instability in the presence of hydrophobic surfaces, i.e., spontaneous emulsification, also known as ouzo formation in practice. In this work, light scattering, small - angle X - ray scattering, and circular dichroism measurements are used to characterize the physical prop...

摘要:Carbon - based single - atom catalysts, a promising candidate in electrocatalysis, offer insights into electron- donating effects of metal center on adjacent atoms. Herein, we present a practical strategy to rationally design a model catalyst with a single zinc (Zn) atom coordinated with nitrogen and sulfur atoms in a multilevel carbon matrix. The Zn site exhibits an atomic interface configuration of ZnN4S1, where Zn's electron injection effect enables thermal- neutral hydrogen adsorption on n...

摘要:Future climate change can cause more days with poor air quality. This could trigger more alerts telling people to stay inside to protect themselves, with potential consequences for health and health equity. Here, we study the change in US air quality alerts over this century due to fine particulate matter (PM2.5), who they may affect, and how they may respond. We find air quality alerts increase by over 1 mo per year in the eastern United States by 2100 and quadruple on average. They predomina...

摘要:Several compounds have been used for atherosclerosis treatment, including clinical trials; however, no anti- atherosclerotic drugs based on hemodynamic force- mediated atherogenesis have been discovered. Our previous studies demonstrated that small mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 1/5 (Smad1/5) is a convergent signaling molecule for chemical [e.g., bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs)] and mechanical (e.g., disturbed flow) stimulations and hence may serve as a promising hemodynamic-based ...

摘要:The canonical eukaryotic initiation factor 4F (eIF4F) complex, composed of eIF4G1, eIF4A1, and the cap- binding protein eIF4E, plays a crucial role in cap- dependent translation initiation in eukaryotic cells. An alternative cap- independent initiation can occur, involving only eIF4G1 and eIF4A1 through internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs). This mechanism is considered complementary to cap- dependent initiation, particularly in tumors under stress conditions. However, the selection and molecu...

摘要:KIF1A, a microtubule- based motor protein responsible for axonal transport, is linked to a group of neurological disorders known as KIF1A- associated neurological disorder (KAND). Current therapeutic options for KAND are limited. Here, we introduced the clinically relevant KIF1A(R11Q) variant into the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog UNC- 104, resulting in uncoordinated animal behaviors. Through genetic suppressor screens, we identified intragenic mutations in UNC- 104's motor domain that rescue...

摘要:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a major life-threatening disease accounting for 85% of all lung cancer cases, has been treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), but often resulted in drug resistance, and approximately 60% of TKI-resistant cases are due to acquired secondary (epithelial growth factor receptor) EGFR-T790M mutation. To identify alternative targets for TKI-resistant NSCLC with EGFR-T790M mutation, we found that the three globo - series glycosphingolipids are increasingly...

摘要:Flow patterns exert significant effects on vascular endothelial cells (ECs) to lead to the focal nature of atherosclerosis. Using a step flow chamber to investigate the effects of disturbed shear (DS) and pulsatile shear (PS) on ECs in the same flow channel, we conducted single - cell RNA sequencing analyses to explore the distinct transcriptomic profiles regulated by DS vs. PS. Integrated analysis identified eight cell clusters and demonstrated that DS induces EC transition from atheroprotect...
