    Abstract Background: Patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) experience various problems, including low psychological flexibility, negative emotions, and poor sleep quality. Therefore, effective nursing interventions are required to reduce adverse events. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) combined with enabling cognitive-behavioral education (ECBE) can improve patients' psychological and sleep. Therefore, we speculate that this may also be effective in patients with CHB.
    Aim: To investigate the effects of different intervention methods on psychological flexibility, negative emotions, and sleep quality in patients with CHB.
    Methods: This retrospective study examined clinical and evaluation data of 129 patients with CHB. Intervention methods were divided into a conventional group (routine nursing,
    Results: Compared with the conventional group, the AAQ-II score of the combined group was lower (F
    Conclusion: ACT combined with ECBE in patients with CHB can improve psychological flexibility and sleep quality, alleviate negative emotions, and improve self-care.

    Abstract Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV) is a prominent causative agent of cassava mosaic disease in Asia and relies on the whitefly Bemisia tabaci cryptic complex for its transmission. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in SLCMV transmission by B. tabaci have yet to be understood. In this study, we identified an aminopeptidase N-like protein (BtAPN) in B. tabaci Asia II 1, an efficient vector of SLCMV, which is involved in the SLCMV transmission process. Through the use of glutathione S-transferase pull-down assay and LC-MS/MS analysis, we demonstrated the interaction between BtAPN and the coat protein (CP) of SLCMV. This interaction was further confirmed in vitro, and we observed an induction of BtAPN gene expression following SLCMV infection. By interfering with the function of BtAPN, the quantities of SLCMV were significantly reduced in various parts of B. tabaci Asia II 1, including the whole body, midgut, hemolymph, and primary salivary gland. Furthermore, we discovered that BtAPN is conserved in B. tabaci Middle East-Asia Minor 1 (MEAM1) and interacts with the CP of tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), a begomovirus known to cause severe damage to tomato production. Blocking BtAPN with antibody led to a significant reduction in the quantities of TYLCV in whitefly whole body and organs/tissues. These results demonstrate that BtAPN plays a generic role in interacting with the CP of begomoviruses and positively regulates their acquisition by the whitefly.

    Abstract Background: Osteosarcoma cells are prone to metastasis, and the mechanism of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification in this process is still unclear. Methylation modification of m6A plays an important role in the development of osteosarcoma, which is mainly due to abnormal expression of enzymes related to methylation modification of m6A, which in turn leads to changes in the methylation level of downstream target genes messenger RNA (mRNA) leading to tumor development.
    Methods: We analyzed the expression levels of m6A methylation modification-related enzyme genes in GSE12865 whole-genome sequencing data. And we used shRNA (short hairpin RNA) lentiviral interference to interfere with METTL3 (Methyltransferase 3) expression in osteosarcoma cells. We studied the cytological function of METTL3 by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8), flow cytometry, migration and other experiments, and the molecular mechanism of METTL3 by RIP (RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation), Western blot and other experiments.
    Results: We found that METTL3 is abnormally highly expressed in osteosarcoma and interferes with METTL3 expression in osteosarcoma cells to inhibit metastasis, proliferation, and apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells. We subsequently found that METTL3 binds to the mRNA of CBX4 (chromobox homolog 4), a very important regulatory protein in osteosarcoma metastasis, and METTL3 regulates the mRNA and protein expression of CBX4. Further studies revealed that METTL3 inhibited metastasis of osteosarcoma cells by regulating CBX4. METTL3 has been found to be involved in osteosarcoma cells metastasis by CBX4 affecting the protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), MMP9, E-Cadherin and N-Cadherin associated with osteosarcoma cells metastasis.
    Conclusions: These results suggest that the combined action of METTL3 and CBX4 plays an important role in the regulation of metastasis of osteosarcoma, and therefore, the METTL3-CBX4 axis pathway may be a new potential therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.

    Abstract The aim of the study is to investigate the mechanism of action of Disulfiram against colon cancer through a network pharmacology approach. The targets were then imported into the Cytoscape 3.7.2 software to construct a network of active ingredient targets and were imported into the STRING database to construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, and the Bisogenet plug-in in Cytoscape 3.7.2 was used for network topology analysis. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed on the potential targets of Yiqi and Baiyu Tang for colon cancer using the R-language Bioconductor platform, and the results were imported into Cytoscape 3.7.2 to obtain KEGG network relationship maps. Molecular docking software Autodock Vina was used to map the core targets to the active ingredients. A total of 119 chemical components and 694 disease targets were obtained, including 113 intersecting targets. The key targets included AKT1 and TP53, and GO functional analysis mainly related to ubiquitination and apoptosis, etc. KEGG analysis showed that the treatment of colon cancer with Ganchenzan mainly acted through cancer-related signaling pathways such as AGE-RAGE and P13K-Akt, and the molecular docking results showed the best binding performance with TP53.

    Abstract The emergence of "molecular superglue," such as SpyTag-SpyCatcher chemistry, has tremendously expanded our capability in manipulating protein shape and architecture via conjugation. Telechelic proteins bearing the SpyTag and SpyCatcher reactive sequences can be expressed and purified for bioconjugation in vitro, giving protein conjugates, branched proteins, and circular proteins. By encoding both reactive sequences in the same construct for expression in vivo, the nascent protein undergoes programmed posttranslational modification guided by protein folding and reaction, leading to diverse nonlinear topologies in situ. In this chapter, we present the SpyTag-SpyCatcher chemistry as a versatile platform for protein bioconjugation and topology engineering.

    Abstract Background: Less than 1% of children develop femoral neck fractures (FNF), making them uncommon. However, they may have dangerous side effects, like avascular necrosis. Even though several risk factors for postoperative avascular necrosis have been identified, there is still debate regarding them. In this investigation, a meta-analysis was performed to examine the potential causes of postoperative avascular necrosis in children with FNF.
    Methods: We conducted a thorough literature search to find risk factors for avascular necrosis (AVN) after internal fixation of pediatric FNF. Until December 2022, we searched several databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Orthosearch, and Sinomed. Software Zotero 6.0 and Stata 17.0 were used to organise and synthesise the data. Finally, a sensitivity and publication bias test was carried out.
    Results: Our study includes a total of 15 case-control studies involving 814 patients. The risk of postoperative AVN increased with age at fracture encounter (95% CI: 0.64-1.88,
    Conclusions: In line with this study, About 26% of children who underwent surgery for a femoral neck fracture suffered postoperative AVN. The main risk factors for AVN were the child's age, the initial displacement of the fractures, and poorly reduced fractures. The risk of AVN did not significantly correlate with gender, the time of the procedure, reduction methods or the mechanism of injury. The overall trend in the incidence of postoperative AVN for the different Delbet types of fracture is that the incidence of postoperative AVN is highest for type II, lowest for type IV, and close for types I and III, but it is not clear which type of fracture is the independent risk factor.

    Abstract Thermophilic microorganisms mediated significant element cycles and material conversion in the early Earth as well as mediating current thermal environments. Over the past few years, versatile microbial communities that drive the nitrogen cycle have been identified in thermal environments. Understanding the microbial-mediated nitrogen cycling processes in these thermal environments has important implications for the cultivation and application of thermal environment microorganisms as well as for exploring the global nitrogen cycle. This work provides a comprehensive review of different thermophilic nitrogen-cycling microorganisms and processes, which are described in detail according to several categories, including nitrogen fixation, nitrification, denitrification, anaerobic ammonium oxidation, and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium. In particular, we assess the environmental significance and potential applications of thermophilic nitrogen-cycling microorganisms, and highlight knowledge gaps and future research opportunities.

    Abstract Introduction: Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a key modulator in several types of cancer, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we probed into the molecular mechanism of SIRT1 regulating the development and chemoresistance of CRC.
    Methods: Differentially expressed genes related to the growth, metastasis and chemoresistance of CRC were identified by bioinformatics analysis. The expression of SIRT1 in clinical tissues from CRC patients and CRC cell lines was detected by RT-qPCR. Interactions among SIRT1, p53, miR-101 and KPNA3 were analyzed. The effect of SIRT1 on the cell viability, migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation and chemoresistance to 5-FU was evaluated using loss-function investigations in CRC cells. Finally, a xenograft model of CRC and a metastasis model were constructed for further exploration of the roles of SIRT1 in vivo.
    Results: SIRT1 was elevated in CRC tissues and cell lines. SIRT1 decreased p53 via deacetylation, and consequently downregulated the expression of miR-101 while increasing that of the miR-101 target gene KPNA3. By this mechanism, SIRT1 enhanced the proliferation, migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation, and resistance to 5-FU of CRC cells. In addition, in vivo data also showed that SIRT1 promoted the growth, metastasis and chemoresistance to 5-FU of CRC cells via regulation of the p53/miR-101/KPNA3 axis.
    Conclusions: In conclusion, SIRT1 can function as an oncogene in CRC by accelerating the growth, metastasis and chemoresistance to 5-FU of CRC cells through the p53/miR-101/KPNA3 axis.

    Abstract MYB transcription factors (TFs) play a key role in plant resistance to abiotic and biotical stresses. However, little is currently known about their involvement in the plant defense to piercing-sucking insects. Here, we studied the MYB TFs that responded to and resisted Bemisia tabaci whitefly in the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana. Firstly, a total of 453 NbMYB TFs in N. benthamiana genome were identified and 182 R2R3-MYB TFs were analyzed for molecular characteristics, phylogenetic analysis, genetic structure, motif composition, and cis-elements. Then, six stress-related NbMYB genes were selected for further study. The expression pattern shows they were highly expressed in mature leaves and intensively induced upon whitefly attack. Combined with bioinformatic analysis, overexpression, β-Glucuronidase (GUS) assay, and virus-induced silencing tests, we determined the transcriptional regulation of these NbMYBs on the genes in lignin biosynthesis and SA-signaling pathways. Meanwhile, we tested the performance of whitefly on plants with increased or silenced NbMYB genes expression and found that NbMYB42, NbMYB107, NbMYB163, and NbMYB423 were resistant to whitefly. Our results contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the MYB TFs in N. benthamiana. Furthermore, our findings will facilitate further studies on the role of MYB TFs in the interaction between plants and piercing-sucking insects.
