Abstract
The development of a highly specific recognition electrospray ionization source presents a major challenge for achieving rapid ambient mass spectrometry (AMS) detection of trace harmful substances in complex samples. In this study, we constructed a molecular imprinting nanofiber electrospinning membrane-coated steel substrate (MINMCS) based on the electrospinning strategy. This was designed as a highly specific recognition and enrichment electrospray ionization source module for AMS, where the molecular imprinting nanofiber membrane served as an excellent extraction and enrichment layer. The prepared ionization source demonstrated a sufficient loading capacity for three bioamines (BAs): histamine (HIS), tyramine (TYR), and tryptamine (TRY). With simplified sample pretreatment, this ionization source exhibited sensitivity comparable to that of high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Moreover, the entire analysis process could be completed within 1 min with acceptable recoveries (83.21-101.80%). In brief, this study introduces a new integrated recognition and enrichment electrospray ionization source for the detection of harmful substances such as bioamines, showcasing significant commercial potential for the rapid detection of foodborne harmful compounds.

One-Step Formation Method of Plasmid DNA-Loaded, Extracellular Vesicles-Mimicking Lipid Nanoparticles Based on Nucleic Acids Dilution-Induced Assembly. Cells 2024; 13:1183.

Abstract
We propose a nucleic acids dilution-induced assembly (NADIA) method for the preparation of lipid nanoparticles. In the conventional method, water-soluble polymers such as nucleic acids and proteins are mixed in the aqueous phase. In contrast, the NADIA method, in which self-assembly is triggered upon dilution, requires dispersion in an alcohol phase without precipitation. We then investigated several alcohols and discovered that propylene glycol combined with sodium chloride enabled the dispersion of plasmid DNA and protamine sulfate in the alcohol phase. The streamlined characteristics of the NADIA method enable the preparation of extracellular vesicles-mimicking lipid nanoparticles (ELNPs). Among the mixing methods using a micropipette, a syringe pump, and a microfluidic device, the lattermost was the best for decreasing batch-to-batch differences in size, polydispersity index, and transfection efficiency in HepG2 cells. Although ELNPs possessed negative ζ-potentials and did not have surface antigens, their transfection efficiency was comparable to that of cationic lipoplexes. We observed that lipid raft-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis contributed to the transfection of ELNPs. Our strategy may overcome the hurdles linked to supply and quality owing to the low abundance and heterogeneity in cell-based extracellular vesicles production, making it a reliable and scalable method for the pharmaceutical manufacture of such complex formulations.

Abstract
The transcriptional co-regulator SIN3 influences gene expression through multiple interactions that include histone deacetylases. Haploinsufficiency and mutations in SIN3 are the underlying cause of Witteveen-Kolk syndrome and related intellectual disability and autism syndromes, emphasizing its key role in development. However, little is known about the diversity of its interactions and functions in developmental processes. Here, we show that loss of SIN-3, the single SIN3 homolog in Caenorhabditis elegans, results in maternal-effect sterility associated with de-regulation of the germline transcriptome, including de-silencing of X-linked genes. We identify at least two distinct SIN3 complexes containing specific histone deacetylases and show that they differentially contribute to fertility. Single-cell, single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization reveals that in sin-3 mutants the X chromosome becomes re-expressed prematurely and in a stochastic manner in individual germ cells, suggesting a role for SIN-3 in its silencing. Furthermore, we identify histone residues whose acetylation increases in the absence of SIN-3. Together, this work provides a powerful framework for the in vivo study of SIN3 and associated proteins.

Abstract
Ambient mass spectrometry (AMS) allows direct analysis of various raw food samples with minimal or no sample pretreatment, but the trace analytes in complex food samples still have problems with limitations. In this work, we developed a platform based on coated stainless steel sheet spray mass spectrometry for fast, in situ, high-throughput, and high selectivity multiresidue analysis of fluoroquinolone drugs (FQs). The sensitivity of the platform was enhanced via coupling broad-spectrum antibodies against FQs to graphene oxide coated blade spray (CBS)-MS through a streptavidin-biotin (SA-biotin) interaction. The prepared platform had sufficient loading capacity for SA (1.37 mg/piece) and the antibody (84.8 μg/piece), which is greater than that of physical mixing and the EDC/NHS covalent coupling strategy. With simplified sample pretreatment, this platform demonstrated comparable sensitivity to high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) (0.08-0.16 ng/mL in phosphate-buffered saline and 0.21-0.32 ng/mL in diluted milk). Meanwhile, compared with HPLC-MS/MS, the method is rapid (enrichment: 10 min, detection: <1 min) and acceptable recoveries (81.94-102.08%) can be obtained. The presence of analytes can be monitored by MS/MS spectra, and multiple analytes can be measured simultaneously in a single assay. This study is expected to provide a powerful and portable tool for rapid laboratory analysis and reliable screening in the field.

Abstract
Histones are the major proteinaceous component of chromatin in eukaryotic cells and an important part of the epigenome, affecting most DNA‐related events, including transcription, DNA replication, and chromosome segregation. The properties of histones are greatly influenced by their post‐translational modifications (PTMs), over 200 of which are known today. Given this large number, researchers need sophisticated methods to study histone PTMs comprehensively. In particular, mass spectrometry (MS)−based approaches have gained popularity, allowing for the quantification of dozens of histone PTMs at once. Using these approaches, even the study of co‐occurring PTMs and the discovery of novel PTMs become feasible. The success of MS‐based approaches relies substantially on obtaining pure and well‐preserved histones for analysis, which can be difficult depending on the source material. Caenorhabditis elegans has been a popular model organism to study the epigenome, but isolation of pure histones from these animals has been challenging. Here, we address this issue, presenting a method for efficient isolation of pure histone proteins from C. elegans at good yield. Further, we describe an MS pipeline optimized for accurate relative quantification of histone PTMs from C. elegans. We alkylate and tryptically digest the histones, analyze them by bottom‐up MS, and then evaluate the resulting data by a C. elegans−adapted version of the software EpiProfile 2.0. Finally, we show the utility of this pipeline by determining differences in histone PTMs between C. elegans strains that age at different rates and thereby achieve very different lifespans. © 2020 The Authors.
