    Abstract Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) affects more than 33 million people each year, but there are currently no effective drugs or vaccines approved. In this study, we first constructed a candidate host-pathogen interspecies genome-wide genetic and epigenetic network (HPI-GWGEN) via big-data mining. Then, we employed reversed dynamic methods via two-side host-pathogen RNA-seq time-profile data to prune false positives in candidate HPI-GWGEN to obtain the real HPI-GWGEN. With the aid of principal-network projection and the annotation of KEGG pathways, we can extract core signaling pathways during hRSV infection to investigate the pathogenic mechanism of hRSV infection and select the corresponding significant biomarkers as drug targets, i.e., TRAF6, STAT3, IRF3, TYK2, and MAVS. Finally, in order to discover potential molecular drugs, we trained a DNN-based DTI model by drug-target interaction databases to predict candidate molecular drugs for these drug targets. After screening these candidate molecular drugs by three drug design specifications simultaneously, i.e., regulation ability, sensitivity, and toxicity. We finally selected acitretin, RS-67333, and phenformin to combine as a potential multimolecule drug for the therapeutic treatment of hRSV infection.

    Abstract A vinylogous addition reaction of allyl aryl ketones with good yields and excellent regioselectivity catalyzed by squaramide catalysts has been developed. A series of chiral tertiary alcohols and bicyclic pyrrolidones could be synthesized in good to excellent yields, enantioselectivities, and diaseteroselectivities. Both experimental results and DFT calculations indicate that 1,2-addition reaction is favorable when the reaction is employed at a lower temperature, while the 1,4-addition/cyclization pathway is favorable when the reaction is employed at a higher temperature. Furthermore, the formation of compound

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the early response of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) based on intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging (IVIM-DWI) and three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (3D pCASL). Materials and methods: Forty patients diagnosed with NPC were recruited and divided into complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR) group after CRT. All patients underwent IVIM and ASL and the related parameters was obtained. These parameters include pure diffusion coefficient (D), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D*), perfusion fraction (f), average blood flow ( BFavg), minimum blood flow (BFmin), and maximum blood flow (BFmax). Student’s t test was used to compare the difference in ASL and IVIM derived parameters between CR and PR. The Areas under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic performance of each parameter of ASL and IVIM to the treatment outcome. Results: the D value of IVIM in CR group was lower than that of the PR group ( P = 0.014),. Among the parameters of ASL, the BFavg and BFmax of the CR group were higher than those of the PR group(p = 0.004,0.013), but the BFmin had no statistical significance in the two groups(P = 0.54). AUC of D, BFavg, and BFmax is about 0.731, 0.753, and 0.724, respectively, all of their combined AUC diagnosis was 0.812. Conclusion: The early response of NPC after CRT can predict by IVIM’s diffusion parameters and ASL-related blood flow parameters.

    Abstract Medulloblastoma is one of the most frequent malignant brain tumors in infancy and childhood. Early diagnosis and treatment are quite crucial for the prognosis. However, the pathogenesis of medulloblastoma is still not completely clarified. High-resolution mass spectrometry has enabled a comprehensive investigation on the mechanism of disease from the perspective of metabolism. Herein, we compared the difference of metabolic profiles of serum between medulloblastoma (n = 33) and healthy control (HC, n = 16) by using UPLC-Q/E-MS/MS. Principal component analysis and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) intuitively revealed the significantly distinct metabolic profiles between medulloblastoma and HC (p < 0.01 for permutation test on OPLS-DA model). Total of 25 significantly changed metabolites were identified. ROC analysis reported that six of them (Phosphatidic acid (8:0/15:0), 3'-Sialyllactose, Isocoproporphyrin, Acetylspermidine, Fructoseglycine and 3-Hydroxydodecanedioate) showed high specificity and precision to be potential diagnosis biomarkers (AUC > 0.98). Functional analysis discovered that there are four pathways notably perturbed for medulloblastoma. These pathways are related with the dysfunction of arachidonic acid metabolism, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and folate-related metabolism. The target intervention on these pathways may reduce the mortality of medulloblastoma.

    Abstract Background: Cisplatin resistance is one of the major obstacles in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. Intriguingly, elevated lactate levels were observed in cisplatin-resistant cells, which spurred further investigation into their underlying biological mechanisms.
    Methods: Lactate levels were measured by lactate detection kit. Cisplatin-resistance NSCLC cells were established using progressive concentration of cisplatin. Cell viability, proliferation, and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8, EdU, and flow cytometry, respectively. Cell proliferation in vivo was determined by immunohistochemistry of Ki67 and apoptotic cells were calculated by the TUNEL. MeRIP-PCR was used to measure FOXO3 m6A levels. The interactions of genes were analyzed via RIP, ChIP, Dual-luciferase reporter, and RNA pull-down, respectively.
    Results: Elevated lactate levels were observed in both NSCLC patients and cisplatin-resistance cells. Lactate treatment increased cisplatin-resistance cell viability in vitro and promoted tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, lactate downregulated FOXO3 by YTHDF2-mediated m6A modification. FOXO3 transcriptionally reduced MAGI1-IT1 expression. FOXO3 overexpression inhibited the lactate-induced promotion of cisplatin resistance in NSCLC, which were reversed by MAGI1-IT1 overexpression. MAGI1-IT1 and IL6R competitively bound miR-664b-3p. FOXO3 overexpression or MAGI1-IT1 knockdown repressed lactate-mediated cisplatin resistance in vivo.
    Conclusion: Lactate promoted NSCLC cisplatin resistance through regulating FOXO3/MAGI1-IT1/miR-664b-3p/IL6R axis in YTHDF2-mediated m6A modification.

    Abstract Environmental factors in early life have been demonstrated to increase the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring, especially the deficiency of the cognitive ability. Leptin has emerged as a key hormone that conveys information on energy stores, but there is growing appreciation that leptin signaling may also play an important role in neurodevelopment. The present study aimed to investigate whether maternal HFD exposure impairs the offspring learning and memory through the programming of central leptin system. We observed that hippocampus-dependent learning and memory were impaired in male but not female offspring from HFD-fed maternal ancestors (C57BL/6 mice), as assessed by novel object recognition and Morris water maze tests. Moreover, the chromatin immunoprecipitation results revealed the maternal HFD consumption led to the increasement in the binding of the histone marker H3K9me3 in male offspring, which mediates gene silencing in the leptin receptor promoter region. Furthermore, there was an increase in the expression of the histone methylase SUV39H1 in male but not female offspring, which regulates H3K9me3. Additionally, it has been observed that IL-6 and IL-1 also could lead to similar alternations when acting on cultured hippocampal neurons in vitro. Taken together, our data suggest that maternal HFD consumption influences male offspring hippocampal cognitive performance in a sex-specific manner, and central leptin signaling may serve as the cross-talk between maternal diet and cognitive impairment in offspring.

    Abstract The problems caused by microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) have become increasingly prominent, which has caused very serious economic losses. The research on the mechanism and protective measures of MIC is becoming more and more important. In this paper, combined with the unique environment of the circulating water cooling system, the influence of the unique environmental factors of the system on MIC is analyzed. Several kinds of bacteria known to cause microbial corrosion are summarized, including sulfate-reducing bacteria, nitrate-reducing bacteria, iron oxidizing bacteria, etc. The current MIC mechanisms and related research progress are reviewed. Several common MIC monitoring methods are summarized. The commonly used protection methods and the ideas of MIC technologies in the recent stage are listed. Finally, the future research direction of the MIC is prospected.

    Abstract Dispersants, serving as an essential raw material in the formulation of coal water slurry, offer an economical and convenient solution for enhancing slurry concentration, thus stimulating significant interest in the development of novel and efficient dispersants. This paper intends to illuminate the evolution of dispersants by examining both the traditional and the newly conceived types and elaborating on their respective mechanisms of influence on slurry performance. Dispersants can be classified into anionic, cationic, amphoteric, and non-ionic types based on their dissociation properties. They can be produced by modifying either natural or synthetic products. The molecular structure of a dispersant allows for further categorization into one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional structure dispersants. This document succinctly outlines dispersants derived from natural products, three-dimensional structure dispersants, common anionic dispersants such as lignin and naphthalene, and amphoteric and non-ionic dispersants. Subsequently, the adsorption mechanism of dispersants, governed by either electrostatic attraction or functional group effects, is elucidated. The three mechanisms through which dispersants alter the surface properties of coal, namely the wetting dispersion effect, electrostatic repulsion effect, and steric hindrance effect, are also explained. The paper concludes with an exploration of the challenges and emerging trends in the domain of dispersants.
