微生物来源的谷氨酰胺转氨酶(mTG)介导的单一定点修饰的PEG IFN-α2a(英文)

PEG修饰被认为是改善重组蛋白药物特性的最有效手段,包括增加蛋白质药物在体内的血浆半衰期,降低免疫原性和抗原性。目前典型的PEG修饰手段为将PEG连接至蛋白质的游离氨基,包括赖氨酸和N-末端,但这种连接缺乏选择性,产物为混合物,活性及工艺稳定性差,难以控制。酶法PEG化修饰能有效克服上述缺点,其中谷氨酰胺转氨酶(TGase)可以作为PEG化定点修饰用酶。文中选择重组人干扰素α2a(IFNα2a)进行酶法修饰反应,通过计算机模拟预测IFNα2a可以在第101位Gln特异性定点修饰。将IFNα2a与40 kDa的Y型PEG在微生物来源的谷氨酰胺转氨酶(mTG)催化下进行定点PEG化修饰。结果显示,mTG可以介导IFNα2a特异性位点Gln的单一定点PEG修饰,产生分子量为58 495.6 Da的PEG-Gln101-IFNα2a分子。圆二色谱结果显示,PEG-Gln101-IFNα2a与未修饰的IFNα2a具有相同的二级结构。SD大鼠药代结果显示,与IFNα2a相比,PEG-Gln101-IFNα2a能有效提高药代动力学参数,强于已上市PEGIFNα2a-PEGASYS?。     

Bulliform Phytolith Research in Wild and Domesticated Rice Paddy Soil in South China

Bulliform phytoliths play an important role in researching rice origins as they can be used to distinguish between wild and domesticated rice. Rice bulliform phytoliths are characterized by numerous small shallow fish-scale decorations on the lateral side. Previous studies have shown that domesticated rice has a larger number of these decorations than wild rice and that the number of decorations ≥9 is a useful feature for identifying domesticated rice. However, this standard was established based on limited samples of modern rice plants. In this study, we analyzed soil samples from both wild and domesticated rice paddies. Results showed that, in wild rice soil samples, the proportion of bulliform phytoliths with ≥9 decorations was 17.46% ± 8.29%, while in domesticated rice soil samples, the corresponding proportion was 63.70% ± 9.22%. This suggests that the proportion of phytoliths with ≥9 decorations can be adopted as a criterion for discriminating between wild and domesticated rice in prehistoric soil. This indicator will be of significance in improving the application of fish-scale decorations to research into rice origins and the rice domestication process.     

A Calcium‐Ion Hybrid Energy Storage Device with High Capacity and Long Cycling Life under Room Temperature

Ca‐ion based devices are promising candidates for next‐generation energy storage with high performance and low cost, thanks to its multielectrons, superior kinetics, as well as abundance (2500 times lithium). Because of the lack of an appropriate combination of suitable electrode materials and electrolytes, it is unsuccessful to attain a satisfactory performance on complete Ca‐ion energy storage devices. Here, the multiion reaction strategy is defined to construct a complete Ca‐ion energy storage device and a capacitor–battery hybrid mechanism is deliberately adopted. Profiting from the elaborate design, it exhibits a high reversible capacity of 92 mAh g^?1, unmatchable rate capability, and a high capacity retention of 84% over 1000 cycles under room temperature, which is the best performance of reported Ca‐based energy storage devices.     

Genetic Variants in the EPCAM Gene Is Associated with the Prognosis of Transarterial Chemoembolization Treated Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus

The epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EPCAM) is involved in the tumorigenesis and progression of many malignancies, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of EPCAM have been reported to be with the risk and prognosis of several malignancies. However, the association of SNPs in EPCAM gene with the prognosis of HCC patients has never been investigated. In this study, two functional SNPs (rs1126497 and rs1421) in the EPCAM gene were selected and genotyped in a cohort of 448 unresectable Chinese HCC patients treated by TACE. The association of the two SNPs with the overall survival (OS) of patients was assessed by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model and Kaplan-Meier curve. Our data showed that there was no significant association between either SNP and OS of patients. However, in the stratified analysis, the variant-containing genotypes (WV+VV) of SNP rs1126497 exhibited a significant association with poorer OS in HCC patients who had portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) in multivariate analysis of Cox proportional hazard model (hazard ratio, 1.71; 95% confidence interval, 1.16–2.53, P = 0.007), and in Kaplan-Meier curve analysis (P = 0.023), comparing to those carrying wild-type genotype. Our results suggest that SNP rs1126497 in the EPCAM gene may serve as an independent prognosis biomarker for unresectable HCC patient with PVTT, which warranted further validating investigation.
