DataSheet4_Maackiain Modulates miR-374a/GADD45A Axis to Inhibit Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Initiation and Progression.ZIP

Breast cancer ranks as the leading cause of death in lethal malignancies among women worldwide, with a sharp increase of incidence since 2008. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) gives rise to the largest proportion in breast cancer-related deaths because of its aggressive growth and rapid metastasis. Hence, searching for promising targets and innovative approaches is indispensable for the TNBC treatment. Maackiain (MA), a natural compound with multiple biological activities, could be isolated from different Chinese herbs, such as Spatholobus suberectus and Sophora flavescens. It was the first time to report the anti-cancer effect of MA in TNBC. MA could suppress TNBC cell proliferation, foci formation, migration, and invasion. MA also exerted a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth of TNBC. Furthermore, MA could induce apoptosis with an increase of GADD45α and a decrease of miR-374a. In contrast, overexpressing miR-374a would result in at least partly affecting the proapoptotic effect of MA and suppressing GADD45α stimulated by MA. These results reveal the anti-TNBC effect of MA in vitro and in vivo, providing evidence for its potential as a drug candidate utilized in TNBC therapy.</p

Data_Sheet_1_Multi-omics-based investigation of Bifidobacterium’s inhibitory effect on glioma: regulation of tumor and gut microbiota, and MEK/ERK cascade.PDF

Glioma, the most prevalent primary tumor of the central nervous system, is characterized by a poor prognosis and a high recurrence rate. The interplay between microbes, such as gut and tumor microbiota, and the host has underscored the significant impact of microorganisms on disease progression. Bifidobacterium, a beneficial bacterial strain found in the human and animal intestines, exhibits inhibitory effects against various diseases. However, the existing body of evidence pertaining to the influence of Bifidobacterium on glioma remains insufficient. Here, we found that Bifidobacterium reduces tumor volume and prolongs survival time in an orthotopic mouse model of glioma. Experiments elucidated that Bifidobacterium suppresses the MEK/ERK cascade. Additionally, we noted an increase in the α-diversity of the tumor microbiota, along with an augmented relative abundance of Bifidobacterium in the gut microbiota. This rise in Bifidobacterium levels within the intestine may be attributed to a concurrent increase in Bifidobacterium within the glioma. Additionally, Bifidobacterium induced alterations in serum metabolites, particularly those comprised of organonitrogen compounds. Thus, our findings showed that Bifidobacterium can suppress glioma growth by inhibiting the MEK/ERK cascade and regulating tumor, and gut microbiota, and serum metabolites in mice, indicating the promising therapeutic prospects of Bifidobacterium against glioma.</p

Table_1_Phylogenetic Analysis of the Plant U2 snRNP Auxiliary Factor Large Subunit A Gene Family in Response to Developmental Cues and Environmental Stimuli.docx

In all organisms, splicing occurs through the formation of spliceosome complexes, and splicing auxiliary factors are essential during splicing. U2AF65 is a crucial splicing cofactor, and the two typical RNA-recognition motifs at its center recognize and bind the polypyrimidine sequence located between the intron branch site and the 3′-splice site. U2AF65A is a member of the U2AF65 gene family, with pivotal roles in diseases in mammals, specifically humans; however, few studies have investigated plant U2AF65A, and its specific functions are poorly understood. Therefore, in the present study, we systematically identified U2AF65A in plant species from algae to angiosperms. Based on 113 putative U2AF65A sequences from 33 plant species, phylogenetic analyses were performed, followed by basic bioinformatics, including the comparisons of gene structure, protein domains, promoter motifs, and gene expression levels. In addition, using rice as the model crop, we demonstrated that the OsU2AF65A protein is localized to the nucleus and cytoplasm, and it is involved in responses to various stresses, such as drought, high salinity, low temperature, and heavy metal exposure (e.g., cadmium). Using Arabidopsis thaliana and rice mutants, we demonstrated that U2AF65A is involved in the accumulation of plant biomass, growth of hypocotyl upon thermal stimulation, and reduction of tolerance of high temperature stress. These findings offer an overview of the U2AF65 gene family and its stress response functions, serving as the reference for further comprehensive functional studies of the essential specific splicing cofactor U2AF65A in the plant kingdom.</p
