Abstract
Abundant host and bacterial sequences can obscure the detection of less prevalent viruses in untargeted next-generation sequencing (NGS). Efficient removal of these non-targeted sequences is vital for accurate viral detection. This study presents a novel 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) RT-qPCR assay designed to assess the efficiency of avian rRNA depletion before conducting costly NGS for the detection of avian RNA viruses. The comprehensive evaluation of this 28S-test focuses on substituting DNase I with alternative DNases in our established depletion protocols and finetuning essential parameters for reliable host rRNA depletion. To validate the effectiveness of the 28S-test, we compared its performance with NGS results obtained from both Illumina and Nanopore sequencing platforms. This evaluation utilized swab samples from chickens infected with highly pathogenic avian influenza virus, subjected to established and modified depletion protocols. Both methods significantly reduced host rRNA levels, but using the alternative DNase had superior performance. Additionally, utilizing the 28S-test, we explored cost- and time-effective strategies, such as reduced probe concentrations and other alternative DNase usage, assessed the impact of filtration pre-treatment, and evaluated various experimental parameters to further optimize the depletion protocol. Our findings underscore the value of the 28S-test in optimizing depletion methods for advancing improvements in avian disease research through NGS.

RSC Adv 2023; 13:29109-29120. [PMID: 37800135 PMCID: PMC10548788 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra04687g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Solid-phase reversible immobilization (SPRI) bead technology is widely used in molecular biology for convenient DNA manipulation. However, commercial SPRI bead kits lack cost advantages and flexibility. It is, therefore, necessary to develop new and alternative cost-effective methods of on-par or better quality. Herein, an easy and cost-effective method is proposed for synthesizing polyacrylic acid-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (PAA-IONPs) through in situ polymerization at lab scale for high-efficiency nucleic acid extraction and size selection. A design of experiment (DoE) approach was used to investigate the influence of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), acrylic acid (AA) monomer, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactant amounts on the sizes and carboxyl group densities of PAA-IONPs. Thorough characterization by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) highlights the importance of a low starting pH achieved by a high ratio of AA/IONPs, to yield the largest sizes (554 nm) and highest carboxyl group densities (2.13 mmol g-1) obtained in this study. An efficient DNA purification strategy is then presented using homemade beads-suspension buffer and optimized bead concentrations (17% PEG 8000, 2.5 M NaCl, and 3 mg mL-1 PAA-IONPs). This method shows comparable performance to the control (AMPure XP beads) for DNA recovery. An adjustable PAA-IONPs DNA purification system was also developed to be used for DNA-size selection at low DNA amounts (50-100 ng) with a high degree of resolution and recovery. In conclusion, this work offers an optimized PAA-IONPs synthesis protocol and a flexible DNA purification approach that will enable researchers to manipulate DNA under various conditions, holding the significant potential to benefit future molecular biology research and diagnostics.

BMP4 upregulates glycogen synthesis through the SMAD/SLC2A1 (GLUT1) signaling axis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Cancer Metab 2023; 11:9. [PMID: 37443106 DOI: 10.1186/s40170-023-00310-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive hepatic glycogen accumulation benefits tumorigenesis and cancer cell survival. We previously reported that BMP4 has the strongest ability to promote glycogenesis among the 14 BMPs in hepatocytes and augmented hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell survival under hypoxia and hypoglycemia conditions by promoting the glycolysis pathway. However, the mechanism underlying BMP4's effect on glycogenesis in HCC remains elusive. METHODS The expression of BMP4 and SLC2A1 were acquired by analyzing the TCGA-LIHC dataset, as well as by immunohistochemical analysis of the 40 pairs of human HCC samples and para-tumor tissues. Gene expressions were detected by qPCR, immunoflurorescence staining, and Western blotting. Overexpression and silencing of BMP4 were accomplished through adenoviruses Ad-B4 and Ad-siB4 infection. Hepatic glycogen was detected by PAS staining. SLC2A1 (GLUT1) function was blocked by the inhibitor BAY-876. ChIP assay was used to determine the binding of SMADs to the promoter region of SLC2A1 in HCC cells. Lastly, the in vivo effect of BMP4-regulated SLC2A1 on HCC tumor growth was assessed in a xenograft model of HCC. RESULTS The elevated expression of BMP4 in HCC tumor tissues was highly correlated with hepatic glycogen accumulation in clinical samples. SLC2A1 was highly expressed in HCC tumor tissue and correlated with clinical stage and prognosis. Exogenous BMP4 augmented glycogen accumulation and upregulated the expression of glycogen synthesis-related genes in Huh7 and HepG2 cells, both of which were effectively blunted by SLC2A1inhibitor BAY-876. In mechanism, BMP4 activated SMAD5 to regulate the promoter of SLC2A1to enhance its expression. The in vivo xenograft experiments revealed that BMP4 promoted glycogen accumulation and tumor growth, which were effectively diminished by BAY-876. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that BMP4 upregulates glycogen synthesis through the SMAD/SLC2A1 (GLUT1) signaling axis in HCC cells, which may be exploited as novel therapeutic targets for HCC treatment.

Niclosamide (NA) overcomes cisplatin resistance in human ovarian cancer. Genes Dis 2023; 10:1687-1701.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal malignancies of the female reproductive system. OC patients are usually diagnosed at advanced stages due to the lack of early diagnosis. The standard treatment for OC includes a combination of debulking surgery and platinum-taxane chemotherapy, while several targeted therapies have recently been approved for maintenance treatment. The vast majority of OC patients relapse with chemoresistant tumors after an initial response. Thus, there is an unmet clinical need to develop new therapeutic agents to overcome the chemoresistance of OC. The anti-parasite agent niclosamide (NA) has been repurposed as an anti-cancer agent and exerts potent anti-cancer activities in human cancers including OC. Here, we investigated whether NA could be repurposed as a therapeutic agent to overcome cisplatin-resistant (CR) in human OC cells. To this end, we first established two CR lines SKOV3CR and OVCAR8CR that exhibit the essential biological characteristics of cisplatin resistance in human cancer. We showed that NA inhibited cell proliferation, suppressed cell migration, and induced cell apoptosis in both CR lines at a low micromole range. Mechanistically, NA inhibited multiple cancer-related pathways including AP1, ELK/SRF, HIF1, and TCF/LEF, in SKOV3CR and OVCAR8CR cells. NA was further shown to effectively inhibit xenograft tumor growth of SKOV3CR cells. Collectively, our findings strongly suggest that NA may be repurposed as an efficacious agent to combat cisplatin resistance in chemoresistant human OC, and further clinical trials are highly warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A healthy alveolar epithelium is critical to the gas exchange function of the lungs. As the major cell type of alveolar epithelium, alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells play a critical role in maintaining pulmonary homeostasis by serving as alveolar progenitors during lung injury, inflammation, and repair. Dysregulation of AT2 cells may lead to the development of acute and chronic lung diseases and cancer. The lack of clinically relevant AT2 cell models hampers our ability to understand pulmonary diseases. Here, we sought to establish reversibly immortalized mouse pulmonary alveolar type 2 cells (imPAC2) and investigate their potential in forming alveolar organoids to model pulmonary diseases. METHODS Primary mouse pulmonary alveolar cells (mPACs) were isolated and immortalized with a retroviral expression of SV40 Large T antigen (LTA). Cell proliferation and survival was assessed by crystal violet staining and WST-1 assays. Marker gene expression was assessed by qPCR, Western blotting, and/or immunostaining. Alveolar organoids were generated by using matrigel. Ad-TGF-β1 was used to transiently express TGF-β1. Stable silencing β-catenin or overexpression of mutant KRAS and TP53 was accomplished by using retroviral vectors. Subcutaneous cell implantations were carried out in athymic nude mice. The retrieved tissue masses were subjected to H & E histologic evaluation. RESULTS We immortalized primary mPACs with SV40 LTA to yield the imPACs that were non-tumorigenic and maintained long-term proliferative activity that was reversible by FLP-mediated removal of SV40 LTA. The EpCAM+ AT2-enriched subpopulation (i.e., imPAC2) was sorted out from the imPACs, and was shown to express AT2 markers and form alveolar organoids. Functionally, silencing β-catenin decreased the expression of AT2 markers in imPAC2 cells, while TGF-β1 induced fibrosis-like response by regulating the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers in the imPAC2 cells. Lastly, concurrent expression of oncogenic KRAS and mutant TP53 rendered the imPAC2 cells a tumor-like phenotype and activated lung cancer-associated pathways. Collectively, our results suggest that the imPAC2 cells may faithfully represent AT2 populations that can be further explored to model pulmonary diseases.

Carboxymethyl chitosan prolongs adenovirus-mediated expression of IL-10 and ameliorates hepatic fibrosis in a mouse model. Bioeng Transl Med 2022; 7:e10306.

Abstract
Effective and safe liver-directed gene therapy has great promise in treating a broad range of liver diseases. While adenoviral (Ad) vectors have been widely used for efficacious in vivo gene delivery, their translational utilities are severely limited due to the short duration of transgene expression and solicitation of host immune response. Used as a promising polymeric vehicle for drug release and nucleic acid delivery, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) is biocompatible, biodegradable, anti-microbial, inexpensive, and easy accessible. Here, by exploiting its biocompatibility, controlled release capability and anti-inflammatory activity, we investigated whether CMC can overcome the shortcomings of Ad-mediated gene delivery, hence improving the prospect of Ad applications in gene therapy. We demonstrated that in the presence of optimal concentrations of CMC, Ad-mediated transgene expression lasted up to 50 days after subcutaneous injection, and at least 7 days after intrahepatic injection. Histologic evaluation and immunohistochemical analysis revealed that CMC effectively alleviated Ad-induced host immune response. In our proof-of-principle experiment using the CCl4-induced experimental mouse model of chronic liver damage, we demonstrated that repeated intrahepatic administrations of Ad-IL10 mixed with CMC effectively mitigated the development of hepatic fibrosis. Collectively, these results indicate that CMC can improve the prospect of Ad-mediated gene therapy by diminishing the host immune response while allowing readministration and sustained transgene expression.

Reversibly immortalized keratinocytes (iKera) facilitate re-epithelization and skin wound healing: Potential applications in cell-based skin tissue engineering. Bioact Mater 2022; 9:523-540.

Abstract
Skin injury is repaired through a multi-phase wound healing process of tissue granulation and re-epithelialization. Any failure in the healing process may lead to chronic non-healing wounds or abnormal scar formation. Although significant progress has been made in developing novel scaffolds and/or cell-based therapeutic strategies to promote wound healing, effective management of large chronic skin wounds remains a clinical challenge. Keratinocytes are critical to re-epithelialization and wound healing. Here, we investigated whether exogenous keratinocytes, in combination with a citrate-based scaffold, enhanced skin wound healing. We first established reversibly immortalized mouse keratinocytes (iKera), and confirmed that the iKera cells expressed keratinocyte markers, and were responsive to UVB treatment, and were non-tumorigenic. In a proof-of-principle experiment, we demonstrated that iKera cells embedded in citrate-based scaffold PPCN provided more effective re-epithelialization and cutaneous wound healing than that of either PPCN or iKera cells alone, in a mouse skin wound model. Thus, these results demonstrate that iKera cells may serve as a valuable skin epithelial source when, combining with appropriate biocompatible scaffolds, to investigate cutaneous wound healing and skin regeneration.

Abstract
Adenovirus (Ad) is a non-enveloped linear double-stranded DNA virus with >50 serotypes in humans. Ad vectors have been used as gene delivery vehicles to express transgenes, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) for gene silencing, or CRISPR/Cas and designer nucleases for genome editing. Although several methods are used to generate Ad vectors, the Ad-making process remains technically challenging and time consuming. Moreover, the Ad-making techniques have not been improved for the past two decades. Gibson DNA Assembly (GDA) technology allows one-step isothermal DNA assembly of multiple overlapping fragments. Here, we developed a one-step construction of Ad (OSCA) system using GDA technology. Specifically, we first engineered several adenoviral recipient vectors that contain the ccdB suicide gene flanked with two 20-bp unique sequences, which serve as universal sites for GDA reactions in the Ad genome ΔE1 region. In two proof-of-principle experiments, we demonstrated that the GDA reactions were highly efficient and that the resulting Ad plasmids could be effectively packaged into Ads. Ad-mediated expression of mouse BMP9 in mesenchymal stem cells was shown to effectively induce osteogenic differentiation both in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the OSCA system drastically streamlines the Ad-making process and should facilitate Ad-based applications in basic, translational, and clinical research.

OUHP: an optimized universal hairpin primer system for cost-effective and high-throughput RT-qPCR-based quantification of microRNA (miRNA) expression. Nucleic Acids Res 2021; 50:e22.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are single-stranded, ∼22-nucleotide noncoding RNAs that regulate many cellular processes. While numerous miRNA quantification technologies are available, a recent analysis of 12 commercial platforms revealed high variations in reproducibility, sensitivity, accuracy, specificity and concordance within and/or between platforms. Here, we developed a universal hairpin primer (UHP) system that negates the use of miRNA-specific hairpin primers (MsHPs) for quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR)-based miRNA quantification. Specifically, we analyzed four UHPs that share the same hairpin structure but are anchored with two, three, four and six degenerate nucleotides at 3'-ends (namely UHP2, UHP3, UHP4 and UHP6), and found that the four UHPs yielded robust RT products and quantified miRNAs with high efficiency. UHP-based RT-qPCR miRNA quantification was not affected by long transcripts. By analyzing 14 miRNAs, we demonstrated that UHP4 closely mimicked MsHPs in miRNA quantification. Fine-tuning experiments identified an optimized UHP (OUHP) mix with a molar composition of UHP2:UHP4:UHP6 = 8:1:1, which closely recapitulated MsHPs in miRNA quantification. Using synthetic LET7 isomiRs, we demonstrated that the OUHP-based qPCR system exhibited high specificity and sensitivity. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the OUHP system can serve as a reliable and cost-effective surrogate of MsHPs for RT-qPCR-based miRNA quantification for basic research and precision medicine.

Antiparasitic mebendazole (MBZ) effectively overcomes cisplatin resistance in human ovarian cancer cells by inhibiting multiple cancer-associated signaling pathways.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the third most common cancer and the second most common cause of gynecologic cancer death in women. Its routine clinical management includes surgical resection and systemic therapy with chemotherapeutics. While the first-line systemic therapy requires the combined use of platinum-based agents and paclitaxel, many ovarian cancer patients have recurrence and eventually succumb to chemoresistance. Thus, it is imperative to develop new strategies to overcome recurrence and chemoresistance of ovarian cancer. Repurposing previously-approved drugs is a cost-effective strategy for cancer drug discovery. The antiparasitic drug mebendazole (MBZ) is one of the most promising drugs with repurposing potential. Here, we investigate whether MBZ can overcome cisplatin resistance and sensitize chemoresistant ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin. We first established and characterized two stable and robust cisplatin-resistant (CR) human ovarian cancer lines and demonstrated that MBZ markedly inhibited cell proliferation, suppressed cell wounding healing/migration, and induced apoptosis in both parental and CR cells at low micromole range. Mechanistically, MBZ was revealed to inhibit multiple cancer-related signal pathways including ELK/SRF, NFKB, MYC/MAX, and E2F/DP1 in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells. We further showed that MBZ synergized with cisplatin to suppress cell proliferation, induce cell apoptosis, and blunt tumor growth in xenograft tumor model of human cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that MBZ may be repurposed as a synergistic sensitizer of cisplatin in treating chemoresistant human ovarian cancer, which warrants further clinical studies.

A functional autophagy pathway is essential for BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Am J Transl Res 2021; 13:4233-4250. [PMID: 34150011 PMCID: PMC8205769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are capable of differentiating into bone, cartilage and adipose tissues. We identified BMP9 as the most potent osteoinductive BMP although detailed mechanism underlying BMP9-regulated osteogenesis of MSCs is indeterminate. Emerging evidence indicates that autophagy plays a critical role in regulating bone homeostasis. We investigated the possible role of autophagy in osteogenic differentiation induced by BMP9. We showed that BMP9 upregulated the expression of multiple autophagy-related genes in MSCs. Autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) inhibited the osteogenic activity induced by BMP9 in MSCs. While overexpression of ATG5 or ATG7 did not enhance osteogenic activity induced by BMP9, silencing Atg5 expression in MSCs effectively diminished BMP9 osteogenic signaling activity and blocked the expression of the osteogenic regulator Runx2 and the late marker osteopontin induced by BMP9. Stem cell implantation study revealed that silencing Atg5 in MSCs profoundly inhibited ectopic bone regeneration and bone matrix mineralization induced by BMP9. Collectively, our results strongly suggest a functional autophagy pathway may play an essential role in regulating osteogenic differentiation induced by BMP9 in MSCs. Thus, restoration of dysregulated autophagic activity in MSCs may be exploited to treat fracture healing, bone defects or osteoporosis.

Cellulose supported magnetic nanohybrids: Synthesis, physicomagnetic properties and biomedical applications-A review. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 267:118136. [PMID: 34119125 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 04/24/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Cellulose and its forms are widely used in biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and lack of cytotoxicity. It provides ample opportunities for the functionalization of supported magnetic nanohybrids (CSMNs). Because of the abundance of surface hydroxyl groups, they are surface tunable in either homogeneous or heterogeneous solvents and thus act as a substrate or template for the CSMNs' development. The present review emphasizes on the synthesis of various CSMNs, their physicomagnetic properties, and potential applications such as stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems, MRI, enzyme encapsulation, nucleic acid extraction, wound healing and tissue engineering. The impact of CSMNs on cytotoxicity, magnetic hyperthermia, and folate-conjugates is highlighted in particular, based on their structures, cell viability, and stability. Finally, the review also discussed the challenges and prospects of CSMNs' development. This review is expected to provide CSMNs' development roadmap in the context of 21st-century demands for biomedical therapeutics.
