    Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) with promising application are likely to become ubiquitous contaminants in water environment for their high hydrophilicity, low biodegradability, and especially its potential toxicity. In this work, we have investigated photochemical transformation of six imidazolium ILs for fate prediction and ecological risk assessment. We found that the reaction rates of the ILs with •OH, CO₃•─ and ¹O₂ enhanced with their increasing alkyl chain and varied slightly with the paired anions. Meanwhile, modelled results under different scenarios indicate that the primary contributors to transformation of the ILs are triplet-stated dissolved matter (³CDOM*), •OH and CO₃•–. Besides, the overall half-lives of the ILs can reach 670 days, which indicates persistence of these ILs in the environment. Products for ILs in reaction with •OH and triplet-stated sodium anthraquinone-2-sulfonate (³AQ2S*) were probed by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and there is a difference between their products: Products by •OH are likely formed by hydrogen abstraction from the side alkyl chain, followed by dehydrogenation, hydroxylation and carbonylation, while one of the products by ³AQ2S* is formed by dihydroxyl-addition of the imidazolium ring. Furthermore, the ILs and its products were estimated to have toxicity and non-readily biodegradability, suggesting potential eco-risk for the environmental water.

    Abstract A novel treatment technology of microwave catalytic oxidation degradation (MCOD) for nitrophenols (NPs) wastewater over green catalysts of gC3N4Bi2O2CO3 and SiCBi2O2CO3 was developed. This process is eco-friendly because the only used Bi2O2CO3 is non-toxic (which can be used as stomach medicine), and no heavy metal pollution exists in g-C3N4 and SiC. The results show that these Bi2O2CO3 based composites exhibited superior catalytic activity for the degradation of para-NP, as well as ortho-NP, with optimal removal ratio of 98.96%. In addition, the proportion of Bi2O2CO3 and irradiation time were the key parameters that had greatly influenced the degradation performance. Moreover, O2− was confirmed to be primary contributor for the degradation, which was different from our previous work that OH was the main specie in carbon loaded metal oxide system. That is to say, the type of oxidative specie may be controlled by the type of catalyst system. Besides, separation and transfer efficiency of the charge carriers could be enhanced by the heterojunctions fabricated in the band structures of the composites. This work not only demonstrated that the Bi2O2CO3 based composites coupled with MW irradiation can generate reactive oxidative species(ROS) which can degrade NPs high-effectively, but also developed a new and green idea for treating refractory industrial wastewater.

    Abstract Accumulating evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are vital regulators of the expression of various genes in multiple human diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of glycolysis-associated lncRNA of colorectal cancer (GLCC1) in the progression of gastric carcinoma as well as the underlying mechanism. The expression levels of GLCC1 and c-Myc were determined in 47 pairs of gastric carcinoma tissues and cell lines using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Next, the functional roles of GLCC1 and c-Myc in the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of gastric carcinoma cells (BGC823 and SGC7901 cells) were determined by siRNA-mediated knockdown of these molecules, and the cells were evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, and Transwell assays. In addition, RIP and RNA pull-down assays were used to examine the interaction between GLCC1 and c-Myc/IGF2BP1. Further mechanistic studies were conducted using western blotting. lncRNA GLCC1 and c-Myc were observed to be significantly increased in both gastric carcinoma tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of GLCC1 or c-Myc suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion but promoted apoptosis in both the BGC823 and SGC7901 cell lines. Mechanistically, c-Myc was identified as a downstream regulator involved in the GLCC1-mediated biological effects in gastric carcinoma. The RNA pull-down and RIP assays further showed that the upregulation of lncRNA GLCC1 enhanced the interaction of the IGF2BP1 protein with c-Myc mRNA, thus promoting the stabilization of c-Myc mRNA. Altogether, we demonstrated that lncRNA GLCC1 modulates gastric cancer cell migration and invasion by enhancing the c-Myc/IGF2BP1 interaction, and lncRNA GLCC1 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for preventing the development and progression of human gastric carcinoma.

    Abstract Subtilases, a family of proteases involved in a variety of developmental processes in land plants, are also involved in both mutualistic symbiosis and host-pathogen interactions in different angiosperm lineages. We examined the evolutionary history of subtilase genes across land plants through a phylogenetic analysis integrating amino acid sequence data from full genomes, transcriptomes, and characterized subtilases of 341 species of diverse green algae and land plants along with subtilases from 12 species of other eukaryotes, archaea, and bacteria. Our analysis reconstructs the subtilase gene phylogeny and identifies 11 new gene lineages, six of which have no previously characterized members. Two large, previously unnamed, subtilase gene lineages that diverged before the origin of angiosperms accounted for the majority of subtilases shown to be associated with symbiotic interactions. These lineages expanded through both whole-genome and tandem duplication, with differential neofunctionalization and subfunctionalization creating paralogs associated with different symbioses, including nodulation with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, arbuscular mycorrhizae, and pathogenesis in different plant clades. This study demonstrates for the first time that a key gene family involved in plant-microbe interactions proliferated in size and functional diversity before the explosive radiation of angiosperms.

    Abstract The occurrence and development of the tumor are very complex biological processes. In recent years, a large number of research data shows that CD73 is closely related to tumor growth and metastasis. It has been confirmed that the cascade hydrolysis of extracellular ATP to adenosine is one of the most important immunosuppressive regulatory pathways in the tumor microenvironment. The metabolite adenosine can mediate immunosuppression by activating adenosine receptor (such as A

    Abstract Invasion and metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) results in poor prognosis. Human intervention in these pathological processes may benefit the treatment of HCC. The aim of the present study is to elucidate the mechanism of miR-140-3p affecting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), invasion, and metastasis in HCC. Microarray analysis was performed for differentially expressed genes screening. The target relationship between miR-140-3p and GRN was analyzed. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) against granulin (GRN) was synthesized. EMT markers were detected, and invasion and migration were evaluated in HCC cells introduced with a miR-140-3p inhibitor or mimic, or siRNA against GRN. A mechanistic investigation was conducted for the determination of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway-related genes and EMT markers (E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and Vimentin). GRN was highlighted as an upregulated gene in HCC. GRN was a target gene of miR-140-3p. Elevation of miR-140-3p or inhibition of GRN restrained the EMT process and suppressed the HCC cell migration and invasion. HCC cells treated with the miR-140-3p mimic or siRNA-GRN exhibited decreased GRN expression and downregulated the expressions of the MAPK signaling pathway-related genes, N-cadherin, and Vimentin but upregulated the expression of E-cadherin. GRN silencing can reverse the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway and induction of EMT mediated by miR-140-3p inhibition. Taken together, the results show that miR-140-3p confers suppression of the MAPK signaling pathway by targeting GRN, thus inhibiting EMT, invasion, and metastasis in HCC.
