Su, Zhen; Yuan, Yanggang; Yu, Manshu; Liu, Yan; Klein, Janet D.; Wang, Xiaonan H. published the artcile< Electrically stimulated acupuncture increases renal blood flow through exosome-carried miR-181>, Computed Properties of 6823-69-4, the main research area is renal blood flow exosome microRNA 181 acupuncture; Acu/LFES; angiotensinogen; exosome; microRNA; renal blood flow.

Acupuncture with low-frequency elec. stimulation (Acu/LFES) can prevent muscle atrophy by increasing muscle protein anabolism in mouse models of chronic kidney disease. During the treatment of muscle wasting, we found that Acu/LFES on the gastrocnemius muscle of the leg enhances renal blood flow. We also found that Acu/LFES increases exosome abundance and alters exosome-associated microRNA expression in the circulation. When exosome secretion was blocked using GW4869, the Acu/LFES-induced increase in renal blood flow was limited. This provided evidence that the increased renal blood flow is exosome mediated. To identify how exosomes regulate renal blood flow, we performed microRNA deep sequencing in exosomes isolated from treated and untreated mouse serum and found that the 34 microRNAs are altered by Acu/LFES. In particular, miR-181d-5p is increased in the serum exosome of Acu/LFES-treated mice. In silico searching suggested that miR-181d-5p could target angiotensinogen. Using a luciferase reporter assay, we demonstrated that miR-181 directly inhibits angiotensinogen. When Acu/LFES-treated muscle was excised and incubated in culture medium, we found that the amount of exosomes and miR-181d-5p was increased in the medium providing evidence that Acu/LFES can increase miR-181 secretion. We conclude that Acu/LFES on leg hindlimb increases miR-181 in serum exosome leading to increased renal blood flow.

Kang, Ting; Jones, Tia M.; Naddell, Clayton; Bacanamwo, Methode; Calvert, John W.; Thompson, Winston E.; Bond, Vincent C.; Chen, Y. Eugene; Liu, Dong published the artcile< Adipose-derived stem cells induce angiogenesis via microvesicle transport of miRNA-31>, Name: p-Benzenediacrylanilide, 4′,4′′-di-2-imidazolin-2-yl-, dihydrochloride, the main research area is adipose stem cell angiogenesis miRNA microvesicle transport; Adipose stem cell; Angiogenesis; Endothelial cell; Microvesicle; miRNA.

Cell secretion is an important mechanism for stem cell-based therapeutic angiogenesis, along with cell differentiation to vascular endothelial cells or smooth muscle cells. Cell-released microvesicles (MVs) have been recently implicated to play an essential role in intercellular communication. The purpose of this study was to explore the potential effects of stem cell-released MVs in proangiogenic therapy. We observed for the first time that MVs were released from adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and were able to increase the migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Endothelial differentiation medium (EDM) preconditioning of ASCs upregulated the release of MVs and enhanced the angiogenic effect of the released MVs in vitro. RNA ana lysis revealed that microRNA was enriched in ASC-released MVs and that the level of microRNA-31 (miR-31) in MVs was notably elevated upon EDM-preconditioning of MV-donor A5Cs. Further studies exhibited that miR-31 in MVs contributed to the migration and tube formation of HUVECs, microvessel outgrowth of mouse aortic rings, and vascular formation of mouse Matrigel plugs. Moreover, factor-inhibiting HIF-1, an antiangiogenic gene, was identified as the target of miR-31 in HUVECs. Our findings provide the first evidence that MVs from ASCs, particularly from EDM-preconditioned ASCs, promote angiogenesis and the delivery of miR-31 may contribute the proangiogenic effect.

Li, Qian; Liu, Shenbin; Zhu, Xiaocang; Mi, Wenli; Maoying, Qiliang; Wang, Jun; Yu, Jin; Wang, Yanqing published the artcile< Hippocampal PKR/NLRP1 Inflammasome Pathway Is Required for the Depression-Like Behaviors in Rats with Neuropathic Pain>, Electric Literature of 452-06-2, the main research area is depression neuropathic pain IL1beta PKR NLRP1 inflammasome animal behavior; PKR; anxiety; depression; hippocampus; inflammasome; pain.

The chronic neuropathic pain-associated psychiatric disorders have seriously disturbed the quality of patients’ life, such as depression and anxiety. Neuroinflammation in the hippocampus plays an important role in the neuropathic pain-associated depressive and anxiety disorders, but the underlying mechanism has not been thoroughly elucidated to date. The (NLRP)-1 inflammasome, which controls the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, was broadly involved in the neuroinflammation-related diseases. In the present study, we show that the NLRP1 inflammasome is significantly activated in the hippocampus of rats subjected to the (CCI)-induced neuropathic pain. Inhibiting the product of NLRP1 inflammasome not only attenuated the depression-like behaviors but also suppressed the production of mature IL-1β in the hippocampus of CCI rats. The double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase has been recently shown to be a pivotal regulator for the activation of inflammasome. Functional inhibition of PKR suppressed the NLRP1 inflammasome activation and effectively attenuated the CCI-induced depression-like behaviors. These results indicate that the hippocampal PKR/NLRP1 inflammasome pathway play an important role in the development of the depressive behaviors after chronic neuropathic pain. Thus, interrupting this pathway might provide a novel therapeutic strategy for neuropathic pain-associated depressive disorders.

Zhao, Han; Chen, Mingjian; Ma, Changbei published the artcile< Fluorescent method for the detection of biothiols using an Ag+-mediated conformational switch>, COA of Formula: C5H5N5, the main research area is silver glutathione cysteine biothiol fluorescence conformational switch; 2-aminopurine; cysteine; fluorescence; glutathione.

In this work, a novel, simple, and time-saving fluorescence approach for the detection of biothiols (glutathione and cysteine) was developed by employing a DNA probe labeled with 2-aminopurine. As an adenine analog, 2-aminopurine exhibits high fluorescence intensity that can be rapidly quenched in the presence of DNA. In the presence of Ag+, the fluorescence increased significantly, which was a result of the formation of cytosine-Ag+-cytosine base pairs and the release of 2-aminopurine. Upon addition of either glutathione or cysteine, the structure of cytosine-Ag+-cytosine was disrupted, a product of the stronger affinity between biothiols and Ag+. As a result, the 2-aminopurine-labeled DNA probe returned to its former structure, and the fluorescence signal was quenched accordingly. The detection limit for glutathione and cysteine was 3 nM and 5 nM, resp. Furthermore, the determination of biothiols in human blood serum provided a potential application for the probe as a diagnostic tool in clin. practice.

Viral infection causes changes in the internal environment of host cells, and a series of stress responses are generated to respond to these changes and help the cell survive. Stress granule (SG) formation is a type of cellular stress response that inhibits viral replication. However, the relationship between red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection and SGs, and the roles of the SG marker protein RAS GTPase-activating protein (SH3 domain)-binding protein 1 (G3BP1) in viral infection remain unclear. In this study, RGNNV infection induced grouper spleen (GS) cells to produce SGs. The SGs particles co-located with the classic SG marker protein eIF3η, and some SGs depolymerized under treatment with the translation inhibitor, cycloheximide (CHX). In addition, when the four kinases of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α (eIF2α)-dependent pathway were inhibited, knockdown of HRI and GCN2 with small interfering RNAs and inhibition of PKR with 2-aminopurine had little effect on the formation of SGs, but the PERK inhibitor significantly inhibited the formation of SGs and decreased the phosphorylation of eIF2α. G3BP1 of Epinephelus coioides (named as EcG3BP1) encodes 495 amino acids with a predicted mol. weight of 54.12 kDa and 65.9% homol. with humans. Overexpression of EcG3BP1 inhibited the replication of RGNNV in vitro by up-regulating the interferon and inflammatory response, whereas knockdown of EcG3BP1 promoted the replication of RGNNV. These results provide a better understanding of the relationship between SGs and viral infection in fish.

Rhodiolacrenulata (Hook.f. & Thomson) H.Ohba is an alpine medicinal plant that can survive in extreme high altitude environments. However, its changes to extreme high altitude are not yet clear. In this study, the response of Rhodiola crenulata to differences in altitude gradients was investigated through chem., ICP-MS and metabolomic methods. A targeted study of Rhodiola crenulata growing at three vertical altitudes revealed that the contents of seven elements Ca, Sr, B, Mn, Ni, Cu, and Cd, the phenolic components, the ascorbic acid, the ascorbic acid/dehydroascorbate ratio, and the antioxidant capacity were pos. correlated with altitude, while the opposite was true for total ascorbic acid content. Furthermore, 1165 metabolites were identified: flavonoids (200), gallic acids (30), phenylpropanoids (237), amino acids (100), free fatty acids and glycerides (56), nucleotides (60), as well as other metabolites (482). The differential metabolite and biomarker analyses suggested that, with an increasing altitude: (1) the shikimic acid-phenylalanine-phenylpropanoids-flavonoids pathway was enhanced, with phenylpropanoids upregulating biomarkers much more than flavonoids; phenylpropanes and phenylmethanes upregulated, and phenylethanes downregulated; the upregulation of quercetin was especially significant in flavonoids; upregulation of condensed tannins and downregulation of hydrolyzed tannins; upregulation of shikimic acids and amino acids including phenylalanine. (2) significant upregulation of free fatty acids and downregulation of glycerides; and (3) upregulation of adenosine phosphates. Our findings provide new insights on the responses of Rhodiola crenulata to extreme high altitude adversity.

The reliable and quant. detection of virus DNA is highly desirable for the early diagnosis and clin. treatment of diseases. In this work, a three-dimensional (3D) DNA walker based on a non-enzyme-mediated nucleic acid cascade amplification reaction was constructed for the ratiometric detection of H5N1 DNA. When the DNA walker was developed by the surface modification of aminated silica microsphere (SiO2-NH2) with H1 hairpin structures were activated in the presence of target DNA, the fluorescence of the H1-conjugated Thioflavin T (ThT) fluorophore (495 nm) was turned on, while the fluorescence of 2-aminopurine (2-AP) (363 nm) conjugated to the H2 hairpin remained unchanged. This strategy combines DNA walker powered by catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction with proportional fluorescence signal output methods, which can effectively reduce the risk of generating false-pos. signals. The developed DNA walker demonstrated excellent anal. sensitivity and specificity, with a detection limit of 60 pM. The DNA walker was also capable of selectively detecting H5N1 DNA in clin. blood serum samples, which demonstrated its potential for use in various clin. applications.

Cui, Yigong; Fu, Shenglong; Sun, Dong; Xing, Junchao; Hou, Tianyong; Wu, Xuehui published the artcile< EPC-derived exosomes promote osteoclastogenesis through LncRNA-MALAT1>, Application of C30H30Cl2N6O2, the main research area is endothelial progenitor cell exosome; bone marrow derived macrophage osteoclastogenesis MALAT1; ITGB1; LncRNA-MALAT1; bone marrow-derived macrophages; bone repair; endothelial progenitor cells; miR-124; osteoclastogenesis.

Bone repair involves bone resorption through osteoclastogenesis and the stimulation of neovascularization and osteogenesis by endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). However, the role of EPCs in osteoclastogenesis is unclear. In this study, we assess the effects of EPC-derived exosomes on the migration and osteoclastic differentiation of primary mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) in vitro using immunofluorescence, western blotting, RT-PCR and Transwell assays. We also evaluated the effects of EPC-derived exosomes on the homing and osteoclastic differentiation of transplanted BMMs in a mouse bone fracture model in vivo. We found that EPCs cultured with BMMs secreted exosomes into the medium and, compared with EPCs, exosomes had a higher expression level of LncRNA-MALAT1. We confirmed that LncRNA-MALAT1 directly binds to miR-124 to neg. control miR124 activity. Moreover, overexpression of miR-124 could reverse the migration and osteoclastic differentiation of BMMs induced by EPC-derived exosomes. A dual-luciferase reporter assay indicated that the integrin ITGB1 is the target of miR-124. Mice treated with EPC-derived exosome-BMM co-transplantations exhibited increased neovascularization at the fracture site and enhanced fracture healing compared with those treated with BMMs alone. Overall, our results suggest that EPC-derived exosomes can promote bone repair by enhancing recruitment and differentiation of osteoclast precursors through LncRNA-MALAT1.
