The focus of green analytical chemistry (GAC) is to minimize the negative impacts of analytical procedures on human safety, human health, and the environment. Several factors, such as the reagents used, sample collection, sample processing, instruments, energy consumed, and the quantities of hazardous materials and waste generated during analytical procedures, need to be considered in the evaluation of the greenness of analytical assays. In this study, we propose a greenness evaluation metric for analytical methods (GEMAM). The new greenness metric is simple, flexible, and comprehensive. The evaluation criteria are based on both the 12 principles of GAC (SIGNIFICANCE) and the 10 factors of sample preparation, and the results are presented on a 0-10 scale. The GEMAM calculation process is easy to perform, and its results are easy to interpret. The output of GEMAM is a pictogram that can provide both qualitative and quantitative information based on color and number.

Objective:To screen m6A modification-related genes, and to establish a prognostic model in patients with FLT3 mutated acute myeloid leukemia(AML), especially in older patients and to evaluate the prognostic efficiency of the model.Methods:Gene expression omnibus(GEO)datasets were used to analyze abnormally expressed m6A enzymes and reading proteins in FLT3 mutated AML; Correlation analysis was used to screen m6A modified-related genes in expression profiles.By integrating TCGA and BEAT data, 83 FLT3 mutated AML patients were included, and 32 of them were older than 60 years.Univariate Cox analysis and Lasso regression were conducted to construct the risk model.Kaplan-Meier curve and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve(tROC)were used to evaluate the prognostic efficiency of the model; subgroup analysis was conducted in the older patients.The concordance index(C-index)and calibration curve were used to evaluate the discrimination and accuracy of the model.Results:14 m6A modification enzymes or reading proteins were abnormally expressed in patients with FLT3 mutated AML.Correlation analysis filtered out 2 476 m6A related genes in expression profile.In TCGA and BEAT integrated data, univariate Cox analysis identified 132 prognostic genes.Lasso regression selected seven candidate genes to establish the prognostic risk model, including AKAP9, AVEN, DMCA1, DPYD, FAR2, GPHN and SPECC1L.Kaplan-Meier curve showed that high-risk group of the model had significantly shorter overall survival with a hazard ratio( HR)of 5.08(95% CI: 2.54-10.14, P<0.001).The area under the curve(AUC)in tROC for 1-year survival was 0.83; the C-index of risk model was 0.737.In older patients, the hazard ratio( HR)of the risk model for 1-year overall survival was 3.40(95% CI: 1.25-9.24, P=0.017)with an AUC of 0.79. Conclusions:The risk model based on m6A modified-related genes has some predictive value in assessing the prognosis of patients with FLT3 mutated AML, especially indicative to prognosis prediction in the elderly.

The tumor microenvironment,particularly the hypoxic property and glutathione(GSH)overexpression,substantially inhibits the efficacy of cancer therapy.In this article,we present the design of a magnetic nanoplatform(MNPT)comprised of a photosensitizer(Ce6)and an iron oxide(Fe3O4)/manganese oxide(MnO2)composite nanozyme.Reactive oxygen species(ROS),such as singlet oxygen(1O2)radicals produced by light irradiation and hydroxyl radicals(·OH)produced by catalysis,are therapeutic species.These therapeutic substances stimulate cell apoptosis by increasing oxidative stress.This apoptosis then triggers the immunological response,which combines photodynamic therapy and T-cell-mediated immunotherapy to treat cancer.Furthermore,MNPT can be utilized as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance and fluorescence dual-modality imaging to give real-time tracking and feedback on treatment.

Decellularized matrix transplantation has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for repairing tissue defects, with numerous studies assessing its safety and efficacy in both animal models and clinical settings. The host immune response elicited by decellularized matrix grafts of natural biological origin plays a crucial role in determining the success of tissue repair, influenced by matrix heterogeneity and the inflammatory microenvironment of the wound. However, the specific immunologic mechanisms underlying the interaction between decellularized matrix grafts and the host immune system remain elusive. This article reviews the sources of decellularized matrices, available decellularization techniques, and residual immunogenic components. It focuses on the host immune response following decellularized matrix transplantation, with emphasis on the key mechanisms of Toll-like receptor, T-cell receptor, and TGF-β/SMAD signaling in the stages of post-transplantation immunorecognition, immunomodulation, and tissue repair, respectively. Furthermore, it highlights the innovative roles of TLR10 and miR-29a-3p in improving transplantation outcomes. An in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the host immune response after decellularized matrix transplantation provides new directions for the repair of tissue defects.
