Article Abstract

The constitutively expression system for P. putida nitrilase was firstly constructed to improve the nicotinic acid production and reduce the production costs. High density culture strategy was employed to enhance the biomass and nitrilase production of recombinant strain. The total nitrilase activity reached up to 654 U·mL without the induction. 541 g·L nicotinic acid was accumulated via fed batch mode of substrate feeding through 290 min of conversion.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) act as a vital player in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and have received widespread attention in the treatment of cancer in recent times. Nevertheless, simultaneously inducing TAM repolarization and strengthening their phagocytic ability on cancer cells is still a significant challenge. Ferroptosis has received widespread attention due to its lethal effects on tumor cells, but its role in TAMs and its impact on tumor progression have not yet been defined.

This study comprehensively analyses two new ruthenium(III) complexes, [RuCl(Nic)][(CH)NH]DMF, 1, and [RuCl(3-HPA)][3-HHPA](EtOH), 2, (where Nic = nicotinic acid (vitamin B3), 3-HPA = anion of a 3-hydroxypicolinic acid), as potential antimicrobial agents, highlighting their physicochemical properties, nanoparticle formation, and cytotoxic activity. The complexes were fully characterised by a single crystal X-ray diffraction technique, Fourier-transform infrared, energy-dispersive X-ray, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies. The synthesis of micro- and nanoparticles (NPs) of these complexes was performed using the liquid anti-solvent crystallisation method.

Objective: Dipeptidyl peptidase 9 (DPP9) not only regulates tumor progression and drug sensitivity, but also modifies oxidative stress mediated ferroptosis. This study aimed to investigate the effect of DPP9 inhibition on sorafenib sensitivity and its interaction with ferroptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Methods: Two HCC cell lines (Huh7 and MHCC-97H) were transfected with DPP9 siRNA, followed by detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS), ferrous iron (Fe), malondialdehyde (MDA), and ferroptosis-related proteins, and treated by 0-16 μM sorafenib to calculate half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC) for sensitivity assessment.

Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Center, The First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, 310003 Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.

The vitamin B complex, a group of water-soluble vitamins, is essential for various metabolic and cellular processes and critical for achieving optimal surgical outcomes in plastic and cosmetic procedures. This review examines the mechanistic contributions of this complex at the cellular level, including any roles in mitochondrial bioenergetics, redox balance, gene regulation, and cellular repair mechanisms. Niacinamide, as a precursor to NAD⁺, enhances mitochondrial efficiency and facilitates energy production, supporting tissue regeneration.

Background: The effects of dietary niacin on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain unclear.

Methods: CKD patients with estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) 20-59 mL/min/1.73 m or urinary albumin/creatinine ratio ≥30 mg/g were identified in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data from 2003 to 2018.
