Objective:To investigate the effect of different isoforms of RBBP6 on the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) cells after alternative splicing mediated by splicing factor SRSF1. Methods:RT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of RBBP6 mRNA splicing isoforms regulated by SRSF1. The GEO database was used to analyze the changes of RBBP6 isoform 1 in the progression of plasma cell disease,and survival analysis was used to evaluate the value of this gene in the prognosis of MM patients. In vitro loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were conducted by transfecting control siRNA,RBBP6 isoform 1 siRNA,empty vector (EV),OE-RBBP6 isoform 3 into MM.1S cells,then the expression levels of RBBP6 isoform 1 and RBBP6 isoform 3 were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. CCK-8 assay was performed to detect the cell proliferation ability. Results:Knockdown of SRSF1 increased the expression of RBBP6 isoform 3 and decreased the expression of RBBP6 isoform 1. RBBP6 isoform 1 was closely related to the progression of plasma cell disease,and the high expression of RBBP6 isoform 1 was associated with poor prognosis in patients with MM. Downregulation of RBBP6 isoform 1 expression and overexpression of RBBP6 isoform 3 both reduced the proliferation ability of MM cells. And after downregulating the expression of RBBP6 isoform 1,the level of p53 protein in MM cells was significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusion:In MM,splicing factor SRSF1 can cause alternative splicing abnormalities in RBBP6. The RBBP6 isoform 1 promotes MM cell proliferation,while the RBBP6 isoform 3 inhibits MM cell proliferation,and the mechanism may be related to regulating the p53 pathway.

Nucleic acid-based molecular diagnostic methods are considered the gold standard for detecting infectious pathogens.However,when applied to portable or on-site rapid diagnostics,they still face various limitations and challenges,such as poor specificity,cumbersome operation,and portability difficulties.The CRISPR(Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/CRISPR-associated protein(Cas)-fluorescence detection method holds the potential to significantly enhance the specificity and signal-to-noise ratio of nucleic acid detection.In this study,we developed a portable grayscale reader detection system based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)-CRISPR/Cas.On one hand,in the presence of CRISPR RNA(crRNA),the CRISPR/Cas12a system was employed to achieve precise fluorescent detection of self-designed LAMP amplification reactions for influenza A and influenza B viruses.This further validated the high selectivity and versatility of the CRISPR/Cas system.On the other hand,the accompanying independently developed portable grayscale reader allowed for low-cost collection of fluorescence signals and high-reliability visual interpretation.At the end of the detection process,it directly provided positive or negative results.Practical sample analyses using this detection system have verified its reliability and utility,demonstrating that this system can achieve highly sensitive and highly specific portable analysis of influenza viruses.

Conventional chemotherapy based on cytotoxic drugs is facing tough challenges recently following the advances of monoclonal antibodies and molecularly targeted drugs. It is critical to inspire new potential to remodel the value of this classical therapeutic strategy. Here, we fabricate bisphosphonate coordination lipid nanogranules (BC-LNPs) and load paclitaxel (PTX) to boost the chemo- and immuno-therapeutic synergism of cytotoxic drugs. Alendronate in BC-LNPs@PTX, a bisphosphonate to block mevalonate metabolism, works as both the structure and drug constituent in nanogranules, where alendronate coordinated with calcium ions to form the particle core. The synergy of alendronate enhances the efficacy of paclitaxel, suppresses tumor metastasis, and alters the cytotoxic mechanism. Differing from the paclitaxel-induced apoptosis, the involvement of alendronate inhibits the mevalonate metabolism, changes the mitochondrial morphology, disturbs the redox homeostasis, and causes the accumulation of mitochondrial ROS and lethal lipid peroxides (LPO). These factors finally trigger the ferroptosis of tumor cells, an immunogenic cell death mode, which remodels the suppressive tumor immune microenvironment and synergizes with immunotherapy. Therefore, by switching paclitaxel-induced apoptosis to mevalonate metabolism-triggered ferroptosis, BC-LNPs@PTX provides new insight into the development of cytotoxic drugs and highlights the potential of metabolism regulation in cancer therapy.

The dosage, dose and administration method of decoctions are important factors affecting the efficacy of prescriptions. By analyzing 35 decoction formulas from the Ming and Qing dynasties within the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Famous Formulas (First Batch), it was found that the average dosage was equivalent to about 65 g, of which 71.4% (25/35) of the prescriptions had a dosage ≤60 g. And among them, the dosage of decoctions in the Ming dynasty was significantly smaller than that in the Qing dynasty. Considering the characteristics of formulas in Song dynasty, it is believed that decoctions in Ming and Qing dynasties were influenced by the popular use of decoctions during the Song, Jin, and Yuan dynasties. Some decoctions recorded a dosage of one dose instead of one day, which was more evident in the Ming dynasty. However, by the Qing dynasty, the usage of prescriptions with a dosage of one day gradually became more common. Therefore, in the practical research and application of classic famous formulas from the Ming and Qing dynasties, it is advised to pay attention to the difference between the dosage, one dose and the daily dosage. It is necessary to determine whether to double the dosage of the original formula based on the actual use, in order to ensure the clinical efficacy.
