Abstract

Precision medicine can significantly improve outcomes for patients with cancer, but implementation requires comprehensive characterization of tumor cells to identify therapeutically exploitable vulnerabilities. Here, we describe somatic biallelic TET2 mutations in an elderly patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that was chemoresistant to anthracycline and cytarabine but acutely sensitive to 5'-azacitidine (5'-Aza) hypomethylating monotherapy, resulting in long-term morphological remission. Given the role of TET2 as a regulator of genomic methylation, we hypothesized that mutant TET2 allele dosage affects response to 5'-Aza. Using an isogenic cell model system and an orthotopic mouse xenograft, we demonstrate that biallelic TET2 mutations confer sensitivity to 5'-Aza compared with cells with monoallelic mutations. Our data argue in favor of using hypomethylating agents for chemoresistant disease or as first-line therapy in patients with biallelic TET2-mutated AML and demonstrate the importance of considering mutant allele dosage in the implementation of precision medicine for patients with cancer.

Abstract

Quantum information scrambling describes the delocalization of local information to global information in the form of entanglement throughout all possible degrees of freedom. A natural measure of scrambling is the tripartite mutual information (TMI), which quantifies the amount of delocalized information for a given quantum channel with its state representation, i.e., the Choi state. In this work, we show that quantum information scrambling can also be witnessed by temporal quantum steering for qubit systems. We can do so because there is a fundamental equivalence between the Choi state and the pseudo-density matrix formalism used in temporal quantum correlations. In particular, we propose a quantity as a scrambling witness, based on a measure of temporal steering called temporal steerable weight. We justify the scrambling witness for unitary qubit channels by proving that the quantity vanishes whenever the channel is non-scrambling.

Abstract

Transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) is a key driver of fibrogenesis. Three TGFβ isoforms (TGFβ1, TGFβ2, and TGFβ3) in mammals have distinct functions in embryonic development; however, the postnatal pathological roles and activation mechanisms of TGFβ2 and TGFβ3 have not been well characterized. Here, we show that the latent forms of TGFβ2 and TGFβ3 can be activated by integrin-independent mechanisms and have lower activation thresholds compared to TGFβ1. Unlike TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3 expression is increased in human lung and liver fibrotic tissues compared to healthy control tissues. Thus, TGFβ2 and TGFβ3 may play a pathological role in fibrosis. Inducible conditional knockout mice and anti-TGFβ isoform-selective antibodies demonstrated that TGFβ2 and TGFβ3 are independently involved in mouse fibrosis models in vivo, and selective TGFβ2 and TGFβ3 inhibition does not lead to the increased inflammation observed with pan-TGFβ isoform inhibition. A cocrystal structure of a TGFβ2-anti-TGFβ2/3 antibody complex reveals an allosteric isoform-selective inhibitory mechanism. Therefore, inhibiting TGFβ2 and/or TGFβ3 while sparing TGFβ1 may alleviate fibrosis without toxicity concerns associated with pan-TGFβ blockade.

Abstract

Background/Objectives: Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a common condition affecting up to 90% of menstruating women, which often results in significant pain without an underlying pathology. Zinc, recognized for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects through inhibiting prostaglandin production and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) upregulation, alleviates menstrual pain by preventing uterine spasms and enhancing microcirculation in the endometrium, suggesting its potential as an alternative treatment for primary dysmenorrhea. The goal of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the efficacy and safety of zinc supplementation in reducing pain severity among women with PD and to explore the influence of dosage and treatment duration. Methods: Following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we conducted an extensive search across databases such as PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, up to May 2024. Randomized controlled trials assessing the effects of zinc supplementation on pain severity in women with PD were included. Pain severity was evaluated with established tools, such as the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB2) tool. Two reviewers independently performed the data extraction, and a random-effects model was used for meta-analysis. Meta-regressions were conducted to examine the influence of zinc dosage and treatment duration on pain reduction. Adverse events were also analyzed. Results: Six RCTs involving 739 participants met the inclusion criteria. Zinc supplementation significantly reduced pain severity compared to placebo (Hedges's g = −1.541; 95% CI: −2.268 to −0.814; p < 0.001), representing a clinically meaningful reduction in pain. Meta-regression indicated that longer treatment durations (≥8 weeks) were associated with greater pain reduction (p = 0.003). While higher zinc doses provided additional pain relief, the incremental benefit per additional milligram was modest (regression coefficient = −0.02 per mg; p = 0.005). Adverse event rates did not differ significantly between the zinc and placebo groups (odds ratio = 2.54; 95% CI: 0.78 to 8.26; p = 0.122), suggesting good tolerability. Conclusions: Zinc supplementation is an effective and well-tolerated option for reducing pain severity in women with primary dysmenorrhea. Doses as low as 7 mg/day of elemental zinc are sufficient to achieve significant pain relief, with longer durations (≥8 weeks) enhancing efficacy. The favorable safety profile and ease of use support the consideration of zinc supplementation as a practical approach to managing primary dysmenorrhea. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Stroke has multiple etiologies, but the underlying genes and pathways are largely unknown. We conducted a multiancestry genome-wide-association meta-analysis in 521,612 individuals (67,162 cases and 454,450 controls) and discovered 22 new stroke risk loci, bringing the total to 32. We further found shared genetic variation with related vascular traits, including blood pressure, cardiac traits, and venous thromboembolism, at individual loci (n = 18), and using genetic risk scores and linkage-disequilibrium-score regression. Several loci exhibited distinct association and pleiotropy patterns for etiological stroke subtypes. Eleven new susceptibility loci indicate mechanisms not previously implicated in stroke pathophysiology, with prioritization of risk variants and genes accomplished through bioinformatics analyses using extensive functional datasets. Stroke risk loci were significantly enriched in drug targets for antithrombotic therapy.

Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although 58 genomic regions have been associated with CAD thus far, most of the heritability is unexplained, indicating that additional susceptibility loci await identification. An efficient discovery strategy may be larger-scale evaluation of promising associations suggested by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Hence, we genotyped 56,309 participants using a targeted gene array derived from earlier GWAS results and performed meta-analysis of results with 194,427 participants previously genotyped, totaling 88,192 CAD cases and 162,544 controls. We identified 25 new SNP-CAD associations (P < 5 × 10-8, in fixed-effects meta-analysis) from 15 genomic regions, including SNPs in or near genes involved in cellular adhesion, leukocyte migration and atherosclerosis (PECAM1, rs1867624), coagulation and inflammation (PROCR, rs867186 (p.Ser219Gly)) and vascular smooth muscle cell differentiation (LMOD1, rs2820315). Correlation of these regions with cell-type-specific gene expression and plasma protein levels sheds light on potential disease mechanisms.

Abstract

Nitrogen‐containing heterocycles represent fundamental components found in a myriad of natural compounds, pharmaceuticals, tailored bioactive substances, and agrochemicals. In recent decades, the field of synthetic chemistry has prioritized these compounds, directing considerable research endeavour toward developing efficient and concise methodologies for their synthesis. Consequently, there is a growing interest in pioneering novel synthetic approaches to fabricate these immensely coveted structural motifs. Transition metal‐catalyzed reactions leveraging solvents as carbon (C1) synthons offer notable advantages, including streamlined processes, enhanced atom economy, and environmental sustainability. This review sheds light on the recent advancements in the utilization of collective solvents such as methanol (alongside other alcohols), N,N‐dimethylethanolamine (DMEA), and triethylamine (TEA) (in conjunction with other amines), tetrahydrofuran (THF), toluene, dichloromethane (DCM), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and dimethylformamide (DMF) as C1 synthons, serving as foundational units for the synthesis of N‐heterocycles, including quinazolinone, quinazoline, quinoxaline, pyridine, and pyrimidine, among others. Various reaction conditions employing diverse transition metals, coupling partners, and solvents as carbon synthons or reagents, as reported in the literature, have been explored.

Abstract

Abstract Background The floating population in China consists primarily of internal immigrants and represents a typical health vulnerable group. Poor health literacy has recently become an obstacle in the accessibility and utilization of health services for the vulnerable population, leading to adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to examine whether health literacy affected health outcomes in China’s floating population and whether health service utilization had a mediating effect between health literacy and health outcomes. Method The current study utilized a cross-sectional stratified, multistage, proportional to scale (PPS) study in Zhejiang Province, China, in November and December 2019. In total, 657 valid self-reported questionnaires were recovered and used for data collection. Questionnaires included questions regarding sociodemographic characteristics, health literacy, health outcomes, and health service utilization. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to test questionnaire validity; descriptive statistics were used to understand the demographic characteristics of the floating population; and structural equation modeling was used to determine whether health service utilization mediated health literacy and health outcomes. Results We report positive correlations between health literacy, health service utilization, and health outcomes. Mediation analysis demonstrated that health service utilization had partial mediating effects between health literacy and health outcomes. In the relationship between health literacy and health outcomes, the indirect effects of health service utilization accounted for 6.6–8.7% of the total effects. Conclusion Complete health literacy, through health care literacy and health promotion literacy, affects the mobile population’s initiative to use health services, which, in turn, affects health outcomes. Thus, improving the health literacy of the floating population will help to improve health outcomes. Furthermore, health service providers should enhance the diversity of health service supply to ensure that the floating population has the external resources to improve personal health literacy.

Abstract

A pretargeted oncologic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging that leverages the power of supramolecular nanoparticles with in vivo bioorthogonal chemistry was demonstrated for the clinically relevant problem of tumor imaging. The advantages of this approach are that (i) the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of tumor-targeting and imaging agents can be independently altered via chemical alteration to achieve the desired in vivo performance and (ii) the interplay between the two PKs and other controllable variables confers a second layer of control toward improved PET imaging. In brief, we utilized supramolecular chemistry to synthesize tumor-targeting nanoparticles containing transcyclooctene (TCO, a bioorthogonal reactive motif), called TCO⊂SNPs. After the intravenous injection and subsequent concentration of the TCO⊂SNPs in the tumors of living mice, a small molecule containing both the complementary bioorthogonal motif (tetrazine, Tz) and a positron-emitting radioisotope ((64)Cu) was injected to react selectively and irreversibly to TCO. High-contrast PET imaging of the tumor mass was accomplished after the rapid clearance of the unreacted (64)Cu-Tz probe. Our nanoparticle approach encompasses a wider gamut of tumor types due to the use of EPR effects, which is a universal phenomenon for most solid tumors.

Abstract

Simultaneous delivery of multiple genes and proteins (e.g., transcription factors; TFs) is an emerging issue surrounding therapeutic research due to their ability to regulate cellular circuitry. Current gene and protein delivery strategies, however, are based on slow batch synthesis, which is ineffective, poorly controlled, and incapable of simultaneous delivery of both genes and proteins with synergistic functions. Consequently, advances in this field have been limited to in vitro studies. Here, by integrating microfluidic technologies with a supramolecular synthetic strategy, we present a high-throughput approach for formulating and screening multifunctional supramolecular nanoparticles (MFSNPs) self-assembled from a collection of functional modules to achieve simultaneous delivery of one gene and TF with unprecedented efficiency both in vitro and in vivo. We envision that this new approach could open a new avenue for immunotherapy, stem cell reprogramming, and other therapeutic applications.
