    Abstract Objective: To investigate whether a novel compound heterozygous mutations c.257C>G (p.T86R)/c.176del16 (p.G59A fs*18) in GJB2 result in hearing loss.
    Methods: Allele-specific PCR-based universal array (ASPUA) screening and sequence analysis were applied to identify these mutations. 3D model was built to perform molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to verify the susceptibility of the mutations. Furthermore, WT- and Mut-GJB2 DNA fragments, containing the mutation of c.257C>G and c.176del16 were respectively cloned and transfected into HEK293 and spiral ganglion neuron cell (SGNs) by lenti-virus delivery system to indicate the subcellular localization of the WT- and Mut-CX26 protein.
    Results: A novel compound heterozygous mutation c.257C>G (p.T86R)/c.176del16 (p.G59A fs*18) in GJB2 was identified in a Chinese family, in which 4 siblings with profound hearing loss, but the fifth child is normal. By ASPUA screening and sequencing, a compound heterozygote mutations in GJB2 c.257C>G (p.T86R)/c.176del16 (p.G59A fs*18) were identified in these four deaf children, each of the mutated GJB2 gene were inherited from their parents. There is no mutation of GJB2 gene identified in the normal child. Besides, the compound heterozygous mutation GJB2 c.257C>G (p.T86R)/c.176del16 (p.G59A fs*18) could lead to the alterations of the subcellular localization of each corresponding mutated CX26 protein and could cause the hearing loss, which has been predicted by MD simulation and verified in both 293T and SGNs cell line.
    Conclusion: The c.257C>G (p.T86R)/c.176del16 (p.G59A fs*18) compound mutations in GJB2 detected in this study are novel, and which may be associated with hearing loss in this Chinese family.

    Abstract p-chlorophenol (p-CP), one of the highly toxic chlorinated organic compounds, is recalcitrant in conventional biodegradation process. This study reported a synergistic degradation protocol of 3D semiconductor-microbe interfaces, in which graphite felts (GF) and CdS/g-C₃N₄ nanocomposites were chosen as the carrier and semiconductor for enhanced p-CP degradation. Based on microstructure, photoelectrochemical and degradation performance analysis, the optimal CdS content in CdS/g-C₃N₄ nanocomposites was 10 wt%. The efficiencies of p-CP and TOC removal in bio-photodegradation system were as high as 95% and 77% without extra electron acceptors/donors, which were far better than those in traditional photodegradation and biodegradation system. High-throughput sequencing analysis suggested that p-CP degradation related species (Chryseobacterium, Stenotrophomonas and Rhodopseudomonas), electroactive species (Chryseobacterium, Stenotrophomonas, Hydrogenophaga and Cupriavidus) and hydrogen-utilizing species (Hydrogenophaga and Cupriavidus) were enriched at 3D semiconductor-microbe interfaces. The enrichment of functional species played a crucial role for p-CP removal and mineralization at 3D semiconductor-microbe interfaces. Moreover, the mechanism of enhanced p-CP bio-photodegradation at 3D semiconductor-microbe interfaces was investigated by utilizing Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States 2 (PICRUSt2). The results showed that the genes involved in p-CP biodegradation, hydrogen metabolism and extracellular electron transfer were remarkably enriched. Possible mechanism for enhancement of p-CP degradation in bio-photodegradation system was proposed, in which photocatalytic H₂ and photoelectron transfer played an important role for enhancing p-CP mineralization by microbes. 3D semiconductor-microbe interfaces could maintain excellent performance for p-CP degradation after long-term operation, which provide a potential alternative for the enhanced treatment of wastewater containing p-CP.

    Abstract l-cysteine (L-Cys) plays an important role in human health as well as in the biological environment. Here, a simple physical mixing technique was used to create the p-n heterojunction by homogeneously immobilizing cuprous oxide/copper@microporous carbon (Cu₂O/Cu@mC) on the surface of a sheet of g-C₃N₄ (CNS). Among them, the porous structure of Cu₂O/Cu@mC after heat treatment is favorable for charge storage. Meanwhile, the carbon element in Cu₂O/Cu@mC acts as a photosensitizer and electron mediator to extend visible light absorption. Compared with bulk g-C₃N₄ (CNB), the sheet-like structure and high specific surface area of CNS can be used as a carrier for the binding of Cu₂O/Cu@mC with L-Cys. Based on the interaction between L-Cys and Cu₂O/Cu@mC through the formation of Cu–S bonds, Cu₂O/Cu@mC/CNS was proposed as a light-driven enzyme-free photoelectrochemical sensor for the detection of L-Cys. In the best case, the Cu₂O/Cu@mC/GCE sensor has a low limit of detection of 1.26 × 10⁻⁹ M for L-Cys and a wide linear range (1.0 × 10⁻⁸ M − 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ M). The repeatability, reproducibility, stability, selectivity and specificity of the sensor were satisfactory. In addition, the potential applicability of the proposed photoelectrochemical sensor was evaluated in tap water and human serum.

    Abstract Cationic amphiphilic cellulose copolymers were prepared through grafting hydrophobic poly (p-dioxanone) (PPDO) chains onto hydrophilic quaternized cellulose derivatives (QC) via ring-opening polymerization (ROP) reaction, which was performed in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BmimCl) and using 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) or 1,8-diazabicyclo (5.4.0) undec-7-ene (DBU) as catalyst. Their chemical structures and physical properties were confirmed by FT-IR, 1H-, 13C-, 2D HSQC-NMR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermal stability (TGA) techniques, while self-assembly behavior was characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fluorescence techniques. Both of the sizes and critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of micelles were decreased with increasing grafting contents of PPDO in the copolymers, which were in the ranges of 110–246 nm and 64–253 μg/mL, respectively. The ζ-potentials of micelles were cationic andranged from 39.1 mV to 45.4 mV. The highest encapsulation efficiencyof paclitaxel (PTX) into the micelles was 61.8% and 92.0% of loaded PTX was continuously released from micelles in phosphate buffered saline medium for 36 h.

    Abstract This study applied RNA-seq technology to discover reproduction-related genes and pathways in female topmouth culter brain (including pituitary) and ovarian tissues. In functional analysis, 2479 and 2605 unigenes in the brain and ovary tissue were assigned to the "reproductive process" subcategory in addition to the 2660 and 2845 unigenes assigned to the "reproduction" subcategory. Twenty-three complete cDNA sequences were identified through the different gene expression (DGE) approach from five reproduction-related pathways (MAPK signaling pathway, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway, gonadotropin-releasing hormone signaling pathway, oocyte meiosis pathway, and steroid biosynthesis pathway). The expression levels of 16 candidate genes using qPCR in this study were in accordance with the results of transcriptome analysis. In addition, the expression levels of the FSH, 3β-HSD, PGR, and NPYR genes in malformed gynogenetic ovaries were considerably low, which was consistent with the progress of oocytogenesis in the ovaries of topmouth culter. The high expression of these four genes in the ovaries of normal topmouth culter suggested they might involve in the preparation for the shift of oogenesis to ovulation. Hence, our work identified a set of annotated gene products that are candidate factors affecting reproduction in the topmouth culter H-P-G axis. These results could be essential for further research in functional genomics and genetic editing for topmouth culter reproduction.
