    Abstract Aromatic amino acids play an extremely important role in life activities and participate in many biological processes. Their concentration levels are associated with a variety of diseases, such as phenylketonuria and colorectal cancer. Therefore, the quantification of aromatic amino acids is an important task. In the present work, a novel and rapid three-way analytical method was proposed to detect the levels of aromatic amino acids in prostate cancer cells (PC3 cells) and Dulbecco's modified minimal essential medium (DMEM cell culture), by using the affordable ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. First, spectrum-pH second-order data were designed per sample; Second, properties of the resulted spectrum-pH-sample three-way data were investigated by utilizing the parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), alternating trilinear decomposition (ATLD), and constrained alternating trilinear decomposition (CATLD) algorithms, and a flexible scanning approach for determining the constraint parameters of CATLD was proposed; Third, a three-way calibration method based on the CATLD algorithm with the proposed scanning approach was developed for interference-free quantification of aromatic amino acids in these systems. The average relative predictive errors of validation (ARPEV) for phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan were 1.4%, 3.0%, and 0.7% in prostate cancer cells, and ARPEV for phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan were 4.1%, 1.2%, and 0.7% in DMEM cell culture. The predicted contents of tyrosine and tryptophan in DMEM cell culture were 64.2 ± 2.9 μg mL

    Abstract Probes such as carbon dots (C-dots) have extensive and important applications in the quantitative analysis of complex biological and environmental systems. However, the development of probes is often hindered by incomplete selectivity, i.e., a probe that responds to one substance is also prone to respond to coexisting structurally similar substances. Therefore, the above dilemma often leads to be developed as semi-selective probes, so that the development of probes is abandoned halfway. This work shows how a semi-selective probe can enhance selectivity by combining a proper multivariate calibration model. Primarily, we developed a semi-selective fluorescent probe that responded to tetracyclines (TCs) with discarded tobacco leaves. Then, we introduced the multivariate quantitative fluorescence model (QFM) to enhance its selectivity and solve the problem of fluorescence spectral shift. For the determination of chlortetracycline (CTC) with this semi-selective C-dots probe in mineral and lake water samples and compared to the traditional quantitative model, the introduced QFM resulted in an average relative predictive error (ARPE) in mineral water spiked samples decreased from 57.1 to 5.6%, which reduced the ARPE in the lake water spiked samples from 18.1 to 4.7%. The above results show that the QFM-assisted semi-selective probe C-dots strategy (QFM

    Abstract Problem: Endometriosis patients undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) treatment suffer from poor oocyte quality, a reduced likelihood of the fertilization rate, and low embryo quality. The dysregulation of immune cells and cytokine profiles in the follicular fluid (FF) may play an important role in the competence of the oocyte and the development of the embryo, but the mechanism remains largely unknown.
    Method of study: A total of 40 proved advanced staged endometriosis patients were enrolled in this study. The pregnancy results were followed until all the embryos collected by the first oocyte retrieval cycle were used up. The immune cells subtypes in FF and serum collected on the day of oocyte retrieval were detected by flow cytometry and 27 cytokines were determined using the Bio-Plex Pro Human Cytokine 27-Plex Immunoassay. The specific effect of cytokine on the gene expression of human granulosa cells was determined by RT-qPCR.
    Results: The fertilization rate and the cumulative live birth rate were significantly lower in the endometriosis group. The ratio of CD4
    Conclusion: These results suggest that alterations of the lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in women with advanced endometriosis may have an impact on the oocyte development and resulting in poorer IVF outcomes.

    Design setting and participants: Women eligible for IVF-ET were invited to participate in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, superiority trial at academic fertility centers of ten public hospitals in Chinese Mainland. A total of 462 patients (35-44 years) equally divided between DKP and placebo groups with antral follicle count (AFC) <5 or anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) <1.2 ng/ml were randomized.
    Interventions: All participants were given DKP or 7 g placebo twice daily on the previous menstrual cycle day 5 until oocyte retrieval, which took approximately 5 to 6 weeks.
    Main outcome measure: The primary outcome was the ongoing pregnancy defined as more than 20 gestational weeks of an intrauterine living fetus confirmed by pelvic ultrasonography.
    Results: Demographic characteristics were equally distributed between the study populations. Intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis revealed that ongoing pregnancy rate (OPR) was not significantly different between DKP and placebo groups [26.4% (61/231) versus 24.2% (56/231); relative risk (RR) 1.09, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.80 to 1.49,
    Conclusion: This well-designed randomized controlled trial (RCT) offers new high-quality evidence to supplement existing retrospective literature concerning DKP performance in expected PORs. DKP could be recommended as a safe and natural remedy for expected PORs (aged 35-37 years) who fulfill the POSEIDON group 4 criteria. However, additional interventional clinical studies are undoubtedly required to be conducted in the future to validate this hypothesis.

    Abstract Cartilage regeneration is a complex physiological process. Synovial macrophages play a critical immunomodulatory role in the acute inflammatory response surrounding joint injury. Due to the contrasting differences and heterogeneity of macrophage, the phenotype of macrophages are the key determinants of the healing response after cartilage injury. Biomaterials derived from extracellular matrix have been used for the repair and reconstruction of a variety of tissues by modulating the host macrophage response. However, the immunomodulatory effect of decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) on macrophages has not been elucidated. It is necessary to clarify the immunomodulatory properties of decellularized cartilage matrix (DCM) to guide the design of cartilage regeneration materials. Here, we prepared porcine articular cartilage derived DCM and determined the response of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) to the pepsin-solubilized DCM (PDCM) in vitro. Macrophages activated by the PDCM could promote bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) invasion, migration, proliferation, and chondrogenic differentiation. Then, we verified that early optimization of the immunomodulatory effects of the cell-free DCM scaffold using IL-4 in vivo could achieve good cartilage regeneration in a rat knee osteochondral defect model. Therefore, this decellularized cartilage ECM scaffold combined with accurate and active immunomodulatory strategies provides a new approach for the development of cartilage regeneration materials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This work reports a decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix (DCM) scaffold combined with an accurate and active immunomodulatory strategy to improve cartilage regeneration. Our findings demonstrated that the pepsin-solubilized DCM (PDCM) activated bone marrow-derived macrophages to polarize to a constructive macrophage phenotype. These polarized macrophages promoted bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell invasion, migration, proliferation, and chondrogenic differentiation. DCM scaffolds combined with early-stage intra-articular injection of IL-4 created a wound-healing microenvironment and improved cartilage regeneration in a rat knee osteochondral defect model.

    Abstract The soil-borne necrotrophic pathogen fungus Rhizoctonia solani is destructive, causing disease in various important crops. To date, little is known about the host defence mechanism in response to invasion of R. solani. Here, an iTRAQ-based proteomic analysis was employed to investigate pathogen-responsive proteins in the disease tolerant/resistant cotton cultivar CRI35. A total of 174 differentially accumulated proteins (DAPs) were identified after inoculation of cotton plants with R. solani. Functional categorization analysis indicated that these DAPs can be divided into 12 subclasses. Notably, a large portion of DAPs are known to function in reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism and the expression of several histone-modifying and DNA methylating proteins were significantly induced upon challenge with the fungus, indicating that the redox homeostasis and epigenetic regulation are important for cotton defence against the pathogen. Additionally, the expression of proteins involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis was markedly changed in response to pathogen invasion, which may reflect a particular contribution of secondary metabolism in protection against the fungal attack in cotton. Together, our results indicate that the defence response of cotton plants to R. solani infection is active and multifaceted and involves the induction of proteins from various innate immunity-related pathways.
    Significance: Cotton damping-off is a destructive disease caused by the necrotrophic fungus Rhizoctonia solani. To date, the host defence mechanism involved in the disease protection remains largely unknown. Here, we reported the first proteomic analysis on cotton immune responses against R. solani infection. Employing iTRAQ technique, we obtained a total of 174 differentially accumulated proteins (DAPs) that can be classified into 12 functional groups. Further analysis indicated that ROS homeostasis, epigenetic regulation and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis were tightly associated with the innate immune responses against R. solani infection in cotton. The obtained data provide not only important information for understanding the molecular mechanism involved in plant-R. solani interaction but also application clues for genetic breeding of crops with improved R. solani resistance.

    Abstract The mechanisms underlying the functional link between autophagy and plant innate immunity remain largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the autophagy-mediated plant defense responses against Verticillium dahliae (V. dahliae) infection by comparative proteomics and cellular analyses. An assessment of the autophagy activity and disease development showed that autophagic processes were tightly related to the tolerance of Arabidopsis plant to Verticillium wilt. An isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ)-based proteomics analysis was performed, and we identified a total of 780 differentially accumulated proteins (DAPs) between wild-type and mutant atg10-1 Arabidopsis plants upon V. dahliae infection, of which, 193 ATG8-family-interacting proteins were identified in silico and their associations with autophagy were verified for several selected proteins. Three important aspects of autophagy-mediated defense against V. dahliae infection were revealed: 1) autophagy is required for the activation of upstream defense responses; 2) autophagy-mediated mitochondrial degradation (mitophagy) occurs and is an important player in the defense process; and 3) autophagy promotes the transdifferentiation of perivascular cells and the formation of xylem hyperplasia, which are crucial for protection against this vascular disease. Together, our results provide several novel insights for understanding the functional association between autophagy and plant immune responses.

    Abstract Chitinase is one of the important pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins in plants. By comparative proteomics study, a novel pathogen-responsive chitinase (known as GbCHI) has been identified from sea-island cotton (Gossypium barbadense). The GbCHI cDNA was cloned from wilt-resistant sea-island cotton and the anti-fungal activity of the gene product was investigated. qRT-PCR analysis indicated that GbCHI was expressed constitutively in root, stem, leaf, flower, and ovule of cotton plant, and the expression could be induced by Verticillium dahliae and plant hormone SA, ACC, and JA. Subcellular localization analysis using GFP-tagged proteins showed that GbCHI-GFP fusion proteins were targeted mainly to the plasma membrane. Anti-fungal assay demonstrated that GbCHI could inhibit spore germination and hyphae growth of V. dahliae significantly. These results provide important information for understanding the cellular function of GbCHI and for exploring the application potential of this gene in molecular breeding of wilt-tolerant cotton plants.
