Abstract
Weak light response of organic photodetectors has fascinating potentials in fields of modern science and technology. However, their photoresponsivity is hindered by poor photocarrier excitation and transport. Decorating active-layer surface with plasmonic nanometals is considered a viable strategy to address this issue. Here, we demonstrate a plasmonic nanogold decorated organic phototransistor achieving remarkable enhancement of photoresponsivity. Meanwhile, the photoresponsive range is broadened by 4 orders of magnitude. The proposed design is substantiated by a schematic energy level model combined with theoretical simulation analysis, enabling the development of the advanced optoelectronics.

Abstract
Metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is involved in tumor cell growth process. However, its role and molecular mechanism in liver cancer is still not fully understood. In this study, we found that MALAT1 was significantly expressed in liver cancer cell lines. And knockdown of MALAT1 suppressed proliferation, migration and invasion of HepG2 cells, accompanied with decrease of Rho-associated coiled-coil-forming protein kinase 1 (ROCK1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), N-cadherin, Vimentin and TWIST. Significantly, MALAT1 deletion sensitized HepG2 cells to 5-FU-induced cell cycle arrest in G1 phase, as evidenced by the significant reduction in Cyclin D1 and CDK4 and increase in p53, p21 and p27 protein levels. In addition, MALAT1 knockdown triggered 5-FU induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells by inducing intrinsic apoptosis-related signals, including Cyto-c, Apaf-1, cleaved Caspase-9/-7/-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Furthermore, phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB (p-NF-κB) was also down-regulated by MALAT1 silence. Importantly, suppression of IKKα/NF-κB significantly elevated apoptosis and reduced liver cancer cell viability in MALAT1-knockdown cells with 5-FU incubation. The nude mice transplantation model also confirmed the promoted sensitivity of MALAT1-silenced HepG2 cells to 5-FU by blocking tumor cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis. Therefore, our data supplied a potential mechanism by which knockdown of MALAT1 might play an important role in augmenting sensitivity of HepG2 cells to 5-FU in therapeutic approaches, demonstrating suppressing of MALAT1 may serve as a combination with chemotherapeutic agents in liver cancer treatment.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2), a Ca2+-permeable cationic channel, plays critical roles in insulin release, cytokine production, body temperature regulation and cell death as a reactive oxygen species (ROS) and temperature sensor. However, few TRPM2 inhibitors have been reported, especially TRP-subtype selective inhibitors, which hampers the investigation and validation of TRPM2 as a drug target. To discover novel TRPM2 inhibitors, 3D similarity-based virtual screening method was employed, by which 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivative H1 was identified as a TRPM2 inhibitor. A series of novel 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives were subsequently synthesized and characterized. Their inhibitory activities against the TRPM2 channel were evaluated by calcium imaging and electrophysiology approaches. Some of the compounds exhibited significant inhibitory activity, especially D9 which showed an IC50 of 3.7 μM against TRPM2 and did not affect the TRPM8 channel. The summarized structure-activity relationship (SAR) provides valuable insights for further development of specific TRPM2 targeted inhibitors.

Abstract
Exosomes are nano-sized membrane vesicles released by a variety of cell types, and are thought to play important roles in intercellular communications. In breast cancer, through horizontal transfer of various bioactive molecules, such as proteins and mRNAs, exosomes are emerging as local and systemic cell-to-cell mediators of oncogenic information and play an important role on cancer progression. This review outlines the current knowledge and concepts concerning the exosomes involvement in breast cancer pathogenesis (including tumor initiation, invasion and metastasis, angiogenesis, immune system modulation and tumor microenvironment) and cancer therapy resistance. Moreover, the potential use of exosomes as promising diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers in breast cancer are also discussed.

Abstract
A novel and efficient oxygenation approach to trisubstituted oxazoles via a copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative dehydrogenative annulation of amines, alkynes, and O2 has been developed. This transformation combines dioxygen activation and oxidative C-H bond functionalization and provides a practical protocol for the preparation of oxazole derivatives, which are privileged units found in various bioactive compounds or other natural products. 18O-labeling experiments were conducted to reveal that oxygenation was involved in this chemistry.

Abstract
A hallmark of cancer cells is a reversed transmembrane pH gradient, which could be exploited for robust and convenient intraoperative histopathological analysis. However, pathologically relevant pH changes are not significant enough for sensitive detection by conventional Henderson-Hasselbalch-type pH probes, exhibiting an acid-base transition width of 2 pH units. This challenge could potentially be addressed by a pH probe with a reduced acid-base transition width (i.e., Hill-type probe), appropriate p Ka, and membrane permeability. Yet, a guideline to allow rational design of such small-molecule Hill-type pH probes is still lacking. We have devised a novel molecular mechanism, enabled sequential protonation with high positive homotropic cooperativity, and synthesized small-molecule pH probes (PHX1-3) with acid-base transition ranges of ca. 1 pH unit. Notably, PHX2 has a p Ka of 6.9, matching the extracellular pH of cancer cells. Also, PHX2 is readily permeable to cell membrane and allowed direct mapping of both intra- and extracellular pH, hence the transmembrane pH gradient. PHX2 was successfully used for rapid and high-contrast distinction of fresh unprocessed biopsies of cancer cells from normal cells and therefore has broad potentials for intraoperative analysis of cancer surgery.

Abstract
Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) is a multidomain protein that plays a critical role in maintaining DNA methylation patterns through concurrent recognition of hemimethylated DNA and histone marks by various domains, and recruitment of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1). UHRF1 is overexpressed in various cancers, including breast cancer. The tandem tudor domain (TTD) of UHRF1 specifically and tightly binds to histone H3 di- or trimethylated at lysine 9 (H3K9me2 or H3K9me3, respectively), and this binding is essential for UHRF1 function. We developed an H3K9me3 peptide displacement assay, which was used to screen a library of 44,000 compounds for small molecules that disrupt the UHRF1-H3K9me3 interaction. This screen resulted in the identification of NV01, which bound to UHRF1-TTD with a Kd value of 5 μM. The structure of UHRF1-TTD in complex with NV01 confirmed binding to the H3K9me3-binding pocket. Limited structure-based optimization of NV01 led to the discovery of NV03 (Kd of 2.4 μM). These well-characterized small-molecule antagonists of the UHRF1-H3K9me2/3 interaction could be valuable starting chemical matter for developing more potent and cell-active probes toward further characterizing UHRF1 function, with possible applications as anticancer therapeutics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic literature review (SLR) and network meta-analysis (NMA) of real-world studies comparing major bleeding risk among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) or warfarin. METHODS Systematic searches were conducted in MEDLINE and Embase for full-text articles published between January 1, 2003 and March 18, 2017. Eligible studies compared at least two of the following in a real-world setting: warfarin, apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or edoxaban. A Bayesian NMA was conducted to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for major bleeding using a random-effects model. RESULTS Eleven studies were included in the NMA. Nine studies included DOACs vs Warfarin comparisons, and four studies included DOACs vs DOACs comparisons (two studies included both comparisons). Median follow-up duration ranged from 2.6-31.2 months. No evidence was identified for edoxaban. Apixaban was associated with a significantly lower risk of major bleeding compared to other oral anticoagulants (warfarin HR = 0.58; 95% credible interval [CrI] = 0.48-0.69; dabigatran = 0.73; 0.61-0.87; rivaroxaban = 0.55; 0.46-0.66). Dabigatran was associated with a significantly lower risk than warfarin (0.79; 0.71-0.88) and rivaroxaban (0.76; 0.67-0.85), and rivaroxaban was not statistically different from warfarin (1.05; 0.91-1.19). Sensitivity analyses with standard dose and sponsorship showed consistent results. CONCLUSION DOACs were associated with lower or similar risk of major bleeding compared with warfarin in NVAF patients. Apixaban was associated with a significantly lower risk of major bleeding than other DOACs. Dabigatran was associated with a significantly lower risk of major bleeding compared to rivaroxaban and warfarin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a growing literature documenting a variety of brain abnormalities associated with obesity. However, little is known about the effects of obesity on inter-hemispheric connectivity in aging people. METHODS Participants included 61 cognitively intact elderly (including people with obesity, overweight, and lean controls) who underwent structural MRI, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) and standard neuropsychological batteries. Techniques including FreeSurfer and Voxel-mirrored Homotopic Connectivity (VMHC) were employed to evaluate inter-hemispheric structural and functional connectivity respectively. RESULTS There were no differences of cognitive abilities and vascular risks among groups. When compared to lean controls, obese group had greater VMHC in fusiform gyrus (FG); while overweight group had greater VMHC in FG, calcarine gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus (ITG), and postcentral gyrus (PCG). Moreover, the obesity group had lower VMHC in calcarine gyrus and PCG than overweight group (p<0.05, corrected). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggested, increased inter-hemispheric information transmission in networks supporting visual and sensorimotor function may lead to gain in weight, by possibly mediating diet behaviours of individuals.
