Project description:Wang Bi Tablet (WBT) exhibits effective power in clinic during the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in China. We aimed to employ the “integrative pharmacology strategy”, including rapid analysis of chemical composition, pharmacological experiment, and network pharmacology analysis, to delineate the main active components and reveal the underlying mechanism of WBT acting on RA. UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS provided the chemical fingerprint of WBT and UNIFI 1.8 software assisted in chemical composition identification by matching the MSE raw data to the in-house library. The anti-inflammatory effect of WBT was evaluated in TNF-α- stimulated RAW264.7 cells by ELISA and transcriptome sequencing. Network pharmacology analysis was carried out based on Integrative Pharmacology-based Network Computational Research Platform of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCMIP V2.0, http://www.tcmip.cn/). Functional enrichment and network visualization was performed by DAVID v6.8 and NaviGator v3.0 respectively. Altogether, 293 chemical constituents were preliminarily identified or tentatively characterized in the extract of WBT, and it could effectively against inflammatory response in TNF-α-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. One hundred and thirty-five hub genes were delineated based on the network construction of “Anti-inflammatory Core Genes-Putative Targets-RA genes”, which were mainly involved in inflammation-immune regulation, closely relating to the occurrence and development of RA, such as Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, Chemokine signaling pathway, etc., Forty-eight key active constituents were selected according to the frequency binding to hub targets and contents in WBT, corresponding to 13 herbal medicines. In summary, it is the first time to explore the active constituents and underlying mechanism of WBT acting on RA using integrative pharmacology strategy, which may provide an efficient way for the analysis of chemical constituents and exploration of pharmacological mechanism of TCM.

Project description:An Ac/Ds transposon tagged mutant population was screened for changes in visible fruit phenotypes. One line showed orange, yellow sectors in the fruit and was named Orange ripening (Orr), its transposase free offspring showed Mendelian segregation yielding red, yellow and orange fruit bearing plants in a ratio of 1:2:1. Crossing the an orange fruit plant line to the wild-type yielded only plants bearing yellow fruit. A cross between the yellow fruit bearing progeny yielded 26 plants having red and 17 plants having yellow fruit, suggesting an over-dominant allele. Using inverse PCR analysis showed an insertion in the putative subunit M of the tomato Ndh complex. Subsequently, an Orr Ds transposon excision line was recovered which only showed red pigmented fruit. Here, we describe microarray profiling of tomato fruits from wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous Orr insertion plants and from fruits harvested from the Orr excision line. Keywords: mutant wild type

Project description:Melon is a globally commercialized fruit, and Fusarium rot disease poses a significant threat to post-harvest losses. The conventional use of fungicides raises concerns about chemical residues, prompting exploration into alternative technologies such as Pulsed Light (PL). While PL has been effective in controlling infections in various fruits and vegetables, the precise physiological responses and molecular mechanisms in melon fruits remain incompletely understood. In this study, melon fruits infected with the Fusarium pallidoroseum were treated with different doses of PL (0, 6, 9, and 12 J cm-2), and the impact on both fungal control and fruit shelf life extension was investigated. The 9 J cm-2 dose emerged as the most effective in controlling fungal growth without causing damage, inducing beneficial responses. This optimal PL dose upregulated genes in the lignan biosynthesis pathway and the infection upregulated genes involved with systemic acquired resistance, triggered by the pipecolic acid. In this way, the PL treatment and the infection trigger a double mechanism of resistance in melon fruits. A second and third experiment focused on evaluating the extension of melon fruit shelf life and the safe manipulation window post-PL treatment. The results revealed an average shelf life extension of six days and a safe manipulation period of 24 hours. The extension in shelf life was associated with a deviation in information flux from the ethylene biosynthesis to upregulation of the polyamine biosynthesis pathway, which produces nitric oxide, a product that can inhibit ethylene biosynthesis and its action. Furthermore, the observed 24-hour safety period against fungal infection post-PL treatment was characterized as a memory response resistance caused by the upregulation of lignan biosynthesis, which is a potential and efficient alternative to chemical products like fungicides. Overall, this study provides insights into the transcriptional molecular mechanisms through which PL promotes systemic acquired resistance and extends the shelf life of melon fruits.

Project description:To examine the grapevine genomic methylation landscape and assess its functional significance, we generated whole genome DNA methylome maps for grapevine fruits of developmental stages. The results showed that DNA methylation happened in the grapevine fruit ripening process, and mostly happened in the biological process from the first growth stage fruit transfer to the véraison stage fruit. It further demonstrated that DNA methylation repress the gene expression. The whole-genome methylomes of grapevine fruits obtained in this study have not only broadened our understanding of the mechanism and function of DNA methylation in plant genomes, but also provided valuable data for future studies of grapevine epigenetics and the epigenetic differentiation among different fruit developmental stages.

Project description:Herbal compatibility is the knowledge of which herbs to combine in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulations. The lack of understanding of herbal compatibility is one of the key problems for the application and popularization of TCM in western society. Because of the chemical complexity of herbal medicines, it is simpler to begin to conduct compatibility research based on herbs rather than component plant secondary metabolites. We have used transcriptome analysis to explore the effects and interactions of two plant extracts (Kushen and Baituling) combined in Compound Kushen Injection (CKI). Based on shared chemical compounds and in vitro cytotoxicity comparisons, we found that both the major compounds in CKI, and the cytotoxicity effects of CKI were mainly derived from the extract of Kushen (Sophorae flavescentis). We generated and analyzed transcriptome data from MDA-MB-231 cells treated with single-herb extracts or CKI and results showed that Kushen contributed to the perturbation of the majority of cytotoxicity/cancer related pathways in CKI such as cell cycle and DNA replication. We also found that Baituling (Heterosmilax yunnanensis Gagnep) could not only enhance the cytotoxic effects of Kushen in CKI, but also activate immune-related pathways. Our analyses predicted that IL-1[beta] gene expression was upregulated by Baituling in CKI and we confirmed that IL-1[beta] protein expression was increased using an ELISA assay. Altogether, these findings help to explain the rationale for combining Kushen and Baituling in CKI, and show that transcriptome analysis using single herb extracts is an effective method for understanding herbal compatibility in TCM.

Project description:Memory T cells demonstrate superior in vivo persistence and antitumor efficacy. However, methods for manufacturing less differentiated T cells are not yet well-established. Here, we show that producing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells using berbamine (BBM), a natural compound found in the Chinese herbal medicine Berberis amurensis, enhances the antitumor efficacy of CAR-T cells. BBM is identified through cell-based screening of chemical compounds using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived T cells, leading to improved viability with a memory T cell phenotype. Transcriptomics and metabolomics using stem cell memory T cells reveal that BBM broadly enhances lipid metabolism. Furthermore, the addition of BBM downregulates the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and enhanced mitochondrial respiration. CD19-CAR-T cells cultured with BBM also extend the survival of leukaemia mouse models due to their superior in vivo persistence. This technology offers a straightforward approach to enhancing the antitumor efficacy of CAR-T cells.

Project description:Next generation product such as heat-not-burn type product and e-cigarette emit lower yields of chemical constituents than cigarette because combustion of tobacco leaves is not associated with their vapor generation. Therefore it is expected that the usage of these product bring beneficial impact on public health. However, risk-reduced potential as well as risk concerns in long-term use of these products has not yet been fully understood. In this study, we intended to estimate the risk reduced potential of our proprietary novel tobacco vapor product (NTV) by repeated exposure of in vitro 3D bronchial epithelial cells to NTV vapor in comparison with repeated exposure to cigarette smoke. In addition, to reflect the realistic situation of smokers, exposure switching from cigarette smoke to NTV vapor and cigarette smoke exposure cessation were conducted.
