Abstract
Increased levels of cytosolic DNA in lung tissues play an important role in acute lung injury. However, the detailed mechanisms involved remain elusive. Here, we found that cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS, a cytosolic DNA sensor) expression was increased in airway epithelium in response to increased cytosolic DNA. Conditional deletion of airway epithelial cGAS exacerbated acute lung injury in mice, cGAS knockdown augmented LPS-induced production of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8. Mechanically, deletion of cGAS augmented expression of phosphorylated CREB (cAMP response element-binding protein), and cGAS directly interacted with CREB via its C-terminal domain. Furthermore, CREB knockdown rescued the LPS-induced excessive inflammatory response caused by cGAS deletion. Our study demonstrates that airway epithelial cGAS plays a protective role in acute lung injury and confirms a non-canonical cGAS-CREB pathway that regulates the inflammatory responses in airway epithelium to mediate LPS-induced acute lung injury.

Abstract
The nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathway plays essential roles in innate and adaptive immunity, but little is known how NF-κB signaling is compartmentalized and spatiotemporally activated in the cytoplasm. Here, we show that the lipogenesis signal cascade Scap-SREBP1-S1P/S2P orchestrates the homeostasis and spatiotemporal activation of NF-κB. SREBP cleavage-activating protein (Scap) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1) form a super complex with inhibitors of NF-κB α (IκBα) to associate NF-κB close to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, Scap transports the complex to the Golgi apparatus, where SREBP1 is cleaved by site-1 protease (S1P)/S2P, liberating IκBα for IκB kinase (Ikk)-mediated phosphorylation and subsequent activation of NF-κB. Loss of Scap or inhibition of S1P or S2P diminishes, while SREBP1 deficiency augments, LPS-induced NF-κB activation and subsequent inflammatory responses. Our results reveal the Scap-SREBP1 complex as an additional cytoplasmic checkpoint for NF-κB homeostasis and unveil the Golgi apparatus as the optimal cellular platform for NF-κB activation, providing insights into the crosstalk between lipogenesis signaling and immunity.

Abstract
Met proto-oncogene exon 14 skipping (METex14) mutations are targetable driver genes in approximately 3% of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). Ensartinib, a type Ia MET inhibitor, is a multi-kinase inhibitor that has been approved for ALK-positive NSCLCs. Ensartinib was administered for compassionate use (cohort 1) and in a phase II clinical trial (cohort 2) to patients with METex14 mutant NSCLCs, with ORR as a primary endpoint. Molecular simulation was conducted to evaluate ensartinib c-MET interaction, and cell lines, patient-derived organoids (PDOs), and xenograft models were used to test the effectiveness of ensartinib. Among 29 evaluable patients, the ORR and DCR of ensartinib were 67% and 94% in cohort 1, and 73% and 91% in cohort 2. The median DoR was 6.8 months and median PFS was 6.1 months in the total population. Rash was the most common drug-related adverse event, and peripheral edema of any grade was reported in only 9% patients. Molecular simulations indicated favorable binding of ensartinib to c-MET. The kinase assay demonstrated an IC50 of 7.9 nM of ensartinib against METex14 protein. In vitro, Hs746T (METex14 mutation) and EBC-1 (MET amplification) cells were sensitive to ensartinib, with IC50 of 31 and 44 nM, respectively. Ensartinib exhibited comparable inhibitory effects on cell migration as crizotinib and tepotinib in both cell types. In vivo, ensartinib suppressed the growth of Hs746T cells. Ensartinib also potently inhibited the viability of PDOs. Overall, Ensartinib exhibited substantial antitumor effects against METex14 mutant NSCLCs in preclinical and clinical trials, with relatively low peripheral edema rates.

Abstract
Currently, the global situation of COVID-19 is aggravating, pressingly calling for efficient control and prevention measures. Understanding the spreading pattern of COVID-19 has been widely recognized as a vital step for implementing non-pharmaceutical measures. Previous studies explained the differences in contagion rates due to the urban socio-political measures, while fine-grained geographic urban spreading pattern still remains an open issue. Here, we fill this gap by leveraging the trajectory data of 197,808 smartphone users (including 17,808 anonymous confirmed cases) in nine cities in China. We find a general spreading pattern in all cities: the spatial distribution of confirmed cases follows a power-law-like model and the spreading centroid human mobility is time-invariant. Moreover, we reveal that long average traveling distance results in a high growth rate of spreading radius and wide spatial diffusion of confirmed cases in the fine-grained geographic model. With such insight, we adopt the Kendall model to simulate the urban spreading of COVID-19 which can well fit the real spreading process. Our results unveil the underlying mechanism behind the spatial-temporal urban evolution of COVID-19, and can be used to evaluate the performance of mobility restriction policies implemented by many governments and to estimate the evolving spreading situation of COVID-19.

Abstract
Background Since their discovery, around 150 years, eosinophils research has been a field of changing perspective, and new directions are emerging since then. Summary Initially, eosinophils were perceived as terminally differentiated cytotoxic effector cells. Clearly, eosinophils are capable of playing functions other than immune responses, which is not surprising given their intricate interactions with pathogens as well as other circulating leukocytes. Attempts to comprehend the eosinophil biology and functions have yielded remarkable insights into their roles in human health and sickness. The use of FDA-approved eosinophils-targeting biologics has provided exciting opportunities to directly explore the contributions of eosinophils in disease etiology in humans. Key Messages In this review, we will focus on the eosinophils' lifecycle and discuss the current state of knowledge from mouse models and retrospective human studies demonstrating eosinophils' roles in the pathogenesis of human diseases such as asthma, cancer, and kidney disorders. Despite three recently approved anti-eosinophil agents, a number of key questions and challenges remain far from settled, thereby generating opportunity to further explore this enigmatic cell. A comprehensive understanding of eosinophils biology and function will surely aid in developing improved therapeutic strategies against eosinophils-associated disorders.

Abstract
Common fragile sites (CFSs) are specific genomic loci prone to forming gaps or breakages upon replication perturbation, which correlate well with chromosomal rearrangement and copy number variation. CFSs have been actively studied due to their important pathophysiological relevance in different diseases such as cancer and neurological disorders. The genetic locations and sequences of CFSs are crucial to understanding the origin of such unstable sites, which require reliable mapping and characterizing approaches. In this review, we will inspect the evolving techniques for CFSs mapping, especially genome-wide mapping and sequencing of CFSs based on current knowledge of CFSs. We will also revisit the well-established hypotheses on the origin of CFSs fragility, incorporating novel findings from the comprehensive analysis of finely mapped CFSs regarding their locations, sequences, and replication/transcription, etc. This review will present the most up-to-date picture of CFSs and, potentially, a new framework for future research of CFSs.

Abstract
Chemokine receptors are a family of G-protein-coupled receptors with key roles in leukocyte migration and inflammatory responses. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of two human CC chemokine receptor-G-protein complexes: CCR2 bound to its endogenous ligand CCL2, and CCR3 in the apo state. The structure of the CCL2-CCR2-G-protein complex reveals that CCL2 inserts deeply into the extracellular half of the transmembrane domain, and forms substantial interactions with the receptor through the most N-terminal glutamine. Extensive hydrophobic and polar interactions are present between both two chemokine receptors and the Gα-protein, contributing to the constitutive activity of these receptors. Notably, complemented with functional experiments, the interactions around intracellular loop 2 of the receptors are found to be conserved and play a more critical role in G-protein activation than those around intracellular loop 3. Together, our findings provide structural insights into chemokine recognition and receptor activation, shedding lights on drug design targeting chemokine receptors.

Abstract
The Plk1-interacting checkpoint helicase (PICH) protein localizes to ultrafine anaphase DNA bridges in mitosis along with a complex of DNA repair proteins. Previous studies show PICH deficiency-induced embryonic lethality in mice. However, the function of PICH that is required to suppress embryonic lethality in PICH-deficient mammals remains to be determined. Previous clinical studies suggest a link between PICH deficiency and the onset of acquired aplastic anemia. Here, using Pich knock-out (KO) mouse models, the authors provide evidence for a mechanistic link between PICH deficiency and defective hematopoiesis. Fetal livers from Pich-KO embryos exhibit a significantly elevated number of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs); however, these HSCs display a higher level of apoptosis and a much-reduced ability to reconstitute a functional hematopoietic system when transplanted into lethally irradiated recipients. Moreover, these HSCs show an elevated cytoplasmic dsDNA expression and an activation of the cGAS-STING pathway, resulting in excessive production of type I interferons (IFN). Importantly, deletion of Ifnar1 or cGAS reverses the defective hematopoiesis. The authors conclude that loss of PICH results in defective hematopoiesis via cGAS-STING-mediated type I IFN production.

Abstract
Background and objective: To evaluate the awareness/knowledge and clinical practice for the treatment of atypical asthma among respiratory specialists and primary care practitioners (PCPs) in China. Methods: A total number of 1,997 physicians participated in the survey via WeChat. The questionnaire included six main items: physician demographic characteristics, awareness, diagnosis, medical prescription, assessment/education, and proposal. Results: Cough variant asthma (CVA) was recognized by 97.51% of physicians (1,166 respiratory specialists and 799 PCPs), followed by chest tightness variant asthma (CTVA, 83.72%) and occult asthma (73.54%). Specialists were more likely to follow diagnostic recommendations than PCPs (P < 0.01); however, 34.15% of physicians reported the utility of bronchodilation tests, airway provocation tests, and peak expiratory flow monitoring. A total of 91.70% and 92.01% of physicians prescribed inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) or ICS plus long-acting beta-agonists (LABA) for CVA and CTVA, respectively. Physicians prescribed an ICS or ICS/LABA for 4 (2–8) or 8 (4–12) weeks for CVA and 4 (2–8) or 5 (4–12) weeks for CTVA, and the prescription durations were significantly shorter for PCPs than for specialists (P < 0.01). Further, 52.42% and 35.78% reported good control of CVA and CTVA, respectively, with significantly lower control rates for PCPs than for specialists (P < 0.01). Additionally, specialists exhibited better assessment and educational habits than PCPs. Conclusion: While atypical asthma was identified by most specialists and PCPs, there remains a gap between management in real clinical practice and guideline recommendations, especially for PCPs. Further training of PCPs and clinical studies of atypical asthma are required to improve practice.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a distressing lung disorder with poor prognosis and high mortality rates. Limited therapeutic options for IPF is a major clinical challenge. Well-known for its anti-apoptotic properties, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) plays a critical role in the pathology of malignancies and inflammatory diseases, including IPF. In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of a Bcl-2 homology domain 3 mimetic inhibitor, ABT-199, on bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice, and explore possible underlying mechanism. The lung inflammation and fibrosis model was established by intratracheal instillation of a single dose of BLM. We observed elevated Bcl-2 in the alveolar macrophages and fibroblasts derived from BLM-instilled mice from day 7. Further, we obtained in vivo evidence that early therapeutic treatment with Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-199 from day 3, and late treatment from day 10, both alleviated airway inflammation and lung fibrosis induced by BLM. Our data suggest that ABT-199 might be an effective antifibrotic agent that interferes with profibrogenic cells, which may be a promising therapy in the treatment of clinical IPF patients.

Abstract
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease in which environmental factors play an important role, and the effect of particulate matter (PM) on the occurrence and severity of asthma is drawing more attention. This study aims to identify the correlation between PM and pediatric asthma exacerbation and explore the potential mechanisms. The asthma visits data (N = 16,779,739) in a university-based tertiary children’s hospital from January 2013 to December 2017 were collected, and the relationship between asthma visits and local PM concentration was analyzed. For further study, we established a house dust mite (HDM)-induced allergic airway inflammation model with PM intervention. We detected a correlation between PM concentration and pediatric asthma visits, especially in children under 6 years old. The in vivo data showed that PM aggravated HDM-induced airway inflammation, and IL-33 neutralizing antibody exerted a protective role. Our study suggests that PM is a risk factor in promoting pediatric asthma exacerbation, in which IL-33 might be a promising target.

Abstract
Airway epithelium is a central modulator of innate and adaptive immunity in the lung. Interleukin (IL)17A expression was found to be increased in airway epithelium; however, the role of epithelial-derived IL17A in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains unclear. In this study, we aim to determine whether epithelial-derived IL17A regulates inflammation and mucus hyperproduction in COPD using a cultured human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cell line in vitro and airway epithelium IL17A-specific knockout mouse in vivo. Increased IL17A expression was observed in mouse airway epithelium upon cigarette smoke (CS) exposure or in a COPD mouse model that was induced by CS and elastin. CS extract (CSE) also triggered IL17A expression in HBE cells. Blocking IL17A or IL17RA effectively attenuated CSE-induced MUC5AC and the inflammatory cytokines IL6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and IL1β in HBE cells, suggesting that IL17A mediates CSE-induced inflammation and mucin production in an autocrine manner. CSE activated p-JUN and p-JNK, which were also reduced by IL17RA-siRNA, and JUN-siRNA attenuated CSE-induced IL6 and MUC5AC. In vivo, selective knockout of IL17A in airway epithelium markedly reduced the neutrophilic infiltration in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF), peribronchial inflammation, pro-inflammatory mediators (CXCL1 and CXCL2), and mucus production in a COPD mouse model. We showed a novel function of airway epithelium-derived IL17A, which can act locally in an autocrine manner to amplify inflammation and increase mucus production in COPD pathogenesis.

Abstract
Lung cancer screening by computed tomography (CT) reduces mortality but exhibited high false-positive rates. We established a diagnostic classifier combining chest CT features with bronchial transcriptomics. Patients with CT-detected suspected lung cancer were enrolled. The sample collected by bronchial brushing was used for RNA sequencing. The e1071 and pROC packages in R software was applied to build the model. Eventually, a total of 283 patients, including 183 with lung cancer and 100 with benign lesions, were included into final analysis. When incorporating transcriptomic data with radiological characteristics, the advanced model yielded 0.903 AUC with 81.1% NPV. Moreover, the classifier performed well regardless of lesion size, location, stage, histologic type or smoking status. Pathway analysis showed enhanced epithelial differentiation, tumor metastasis, and impaired immunity were predominant in smokers with cancer, whereas tumorigenesis played a central role in nonsmokers with cancer. Apoptosis and oxidative stress contributed critically in metastatic lung cancer; by contrast, immune dysfunction was pivotal in locally advanced lung cancer. Collectively, we devised a minimal-to-noninvasive, efficient diagnostic classifier for smokers and nonsmokers with lung cancer, which provides evidence for different mechanisms of cancer development and metastasis associated with smoking. A negative classifier result will help the physician make conservative diagnostic decisions.

Abstract
Compelling evidence suggests that inflammatory components contribute to cancer development. However, eosinophils, involved in several inflammatory diseases, were not fully explored in cancer metastasis. We show that airway inflammatory eosinophilia and colonic inflammation with eosinophil infiltration are both associated with increased metastasis in mice. Eosinophilia is responsible for increased bone metastasis in eosinophil-enriched Cd3δ-Il-5 transgenic (Il-5 Tg) mice. We also observe increased eosinophils in the malignant pleural effusion of cancer patients with pleural metastasis. Mechanistically, eosinophils promote tumor cell migration and metastasis formation through secreting C-C motif chemokine ligand 6 (CCL6). Genetic knockout of Ccl6 in Il-5 Tg mice remarkably attenuates bone metastasis. Moreover, inhibition of C-C chemokine receptor 1 (CCR1, the receptor of CCL6) in tumor cells reduces tumor cell migration and metastasis. Thus, our study identifies a CCL6-dependent prometastatic activity of eosinophils, which can be inhibited by targeting CCR1 and represent an approach to preventing metastatic disease.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Our previous studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine, Panax notoginseng (P. notoginseng) can reduce cerebral hemorrhage in rats with TBI. Yet, the exact mechanism still remains unclear. According to the random number table, 36 SD rats were randomly divided into six groups: Sham group (negative control group), Model group, PIK inhibitor group (positive group), P. notoginseng group (experimental group), Rapamycin group, and Panax notoginseng+Rapamycin group (experimental group). In the Model group (M group, the group showing signs of TBI without any treatment), the neural function defect score was significantly decreased, while sequestosome 1 (P62), Beclin 1, and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3-II) were significantly increased. The brain tissue was significantly damaged, and many autophagosomes were observed in the cytoplasm. Compared with the Model group and the Rapamycin group (M+Rapa group, the group showing signs of TBI with Rapamycin treatment), P62, Beclin 1, and LC3-II were significantly decreased, the score of neural function defect was significantly improved, and the brain tissue damage was significantly reduced in the PIK (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) inhibitor group (M+LY group, the group showing signs of TBI with PIK inhibitor treatment). Compared with the Model group, mTOR was decreased and LC3-II was increased; however, there were no significant changes in neural function defect score, HE staining, Nissl staining, and transmission electron microscopy in the Rapamycin group. Compared with the Model group, the neural function defect score at 72h was significantly improved, mTOR was significantly increased, P62, Beclin 1, and LC3-II significantly decreased, brain tissue damage was reduced in HE staining and Nissl staining, autophagosomes were reduced in cytoplasm by transmission electron microscopy in the P. notoginseng group (M+PN group, the group showing signs of TBI with P. notoginseng treatment). Also, there was no significant difference between P. notoginseng group and P. notoginseng+Rapamycin group (M+PN+Rapa group, the group showing signs of TBI with P. notoginseng+Rapamycin treatment). P. notoginseng protects the rat brain function from TBI by inhibiting autophagy through the mTOR signaling pathway and other autophagy pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To explore the application value of Stachys sieboldii Miq granules which is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. METHODS Randomized double blind method was used to select 160 patients with stable COPD. The patients were randomly divided into placebo group and Stachys sieboldii Miq group. Both groups underwent test items for 2 months, detected plasma cytokines, Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) scores, pulmonary function, and the frequency of acute exacerbation (AE) at week 12. Follow-up was done every 12 weeks till 48 weeks to record the frequency of AE. RESULTS A total of 120 patients with 60 in each group were included. At week 12, there were significant differences in the plasma concentrations of TH17, IL-17A, IFN-γ and IL-10 between the two groups (All p=0.000). The proinflammatory factors TH17 and IL-17A were significantly lower in control group, while the anti-inflammatory factors IFN-γ and IL-10 were higher in the control group . And the SGRQ score of Stachys sieboldii Miq group was significantly lower. There was no significant difference in lung function (FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC) between the two groups (p=0.510, 0.529, and 0.843). Within 48 weeks, the AE frequency and change with time showed significant differences between the two groups (p=0.029), and the incidence of AE was reduced by 47.9% in Stachys sieboldii Miq group. CONCLUSIONS Stachys sieboldii Miq granules reduced proinflammatory factors and increased anti-inflammatory factors in stable COPD patients, reducing the probability of inducing AE.treatment.

Abstract
MUS81 complex, exhibiting endonuclease activity on specific DNA structures, plays an influential part in DNA repair. Research has proved that MUS81 is dispensable for embryonic development and cell viability in mammals. However, an intricate picture has emerged from studies in which discrepant gene mutations completely alter the role of MUS81 in human cancers. Here, we review the recent understanding of how MUS81 functions in tumors with distinct genetic backgrounds and discuss the potential therapeutic strategies targeting MUS81 in cancer.

Abstract
Background Roxithromycin (RXM), a macrolide antibiotic, exhibits anti-asthmatic effects, but its specific mechanism of action remains elusive. We evaluated the effects of RXM on airway inflammation, the expression of calprotectin, and the activity of the receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE) to determine whether RXM alleviates inflammation by regulating RAGE activation, and thereby calprotectin expression, in neutrophilic asthma. Methods Male Brown Norway rats were sensitized with ovalbumin (OVA) and Freund’s complete adjuvant (FCA) mixture, followed by OVA challenge to induce neutrophilic asthma. RXM (30 mg/kg) or FPS-ZM1 (RAGE inhibitor, 1.5 mg/kg) was administered 30 min prior to each challenge. The infiltration of airway inflammatory cells and cytokines, as well as the expression of calprotectin and RAGE, was assessed. Results The expression of airway inflammatory cells and cytokines was found to be significantly elevated in OVA + FCA-induced rats. Increased expression of both calprotectin and RAGE was also detected in OVA + FCA-induced asthma [bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) calprotectin: 15.07±1.79 vs. 3.86±0.69 ng/mL; serum calprotectin: 20.47±1.64 vs. 9.29±1.31 ng/mL; lung tissue homogenates calprotectin: 28.82±1.01 vs. 12.02±1.38 ng/mg; BALF RAGE: 762.93±36.47 vs. 294.25±45.92 ng/mL; serum RAGE: 906.43±58.95 vs. 505.60±30.16 ng/mL; lung tissue homogenates RAGE: 1,585.24±177.59 vs. 461.53±63.40 ng/mg; all P<0.001]. However, all of these changes were interrupted by RXM and FPS-ZM1. Conclusions RXM exerted similar effects as the RAGE inhibitor FPS-ZM1 in terms of reducing airway inflammation and downregulating the expression of calprotectin and RAGE in a neutrophilic asthma model. Our findings provide novel insights into the mechanisms underlying the effect of RXM pretreatment on neutrophilic asthma. Furthermore, FPS-ZM1 may be useful as an intervention specific to the neutrophilic asthma phenotype.

Abstract
1. Stocking density is an issue for poultry production. High stocking density can impact biochemical parameters, production, and reproductive performance; however, information regarding the effects of stocking density on serum metabolites in geese is limited.2. Twenty-day-old, Sanhua male geese (n = 240) were allocated to one of two experimental groups for 50 days. One group was housed under a low stocking density (LSD; two birds per m2) and one under a high stocking density (HSD; five birds per m2). Body weight and feed intake were recorded every 10 d. Eight serum samples per group were used for metabonomic analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.3. Stocking density did not affect the spleen, liver, thymus, or bursa of Fabricius weights after 50 d. Feed intake and body weight was significantly lower in geese from the HSD group versus the LSD group (P < 0.05). Thirty-six differential serum metabolites were identified (P < 0.05), indicating altered amino acid, carbohydrate, lipid and vitamin cofactor metabolism.4. The results demonstrated that high-density stocking impacts geese, and provides insights into the mechanisms underlying the adverse health effects associated with HSD.

Abstract
Eosinophils are terminally differentiated cells derived from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow. Several studies have confirmed the effective roles of eosinophils in asthmatic airway pathogenesis. However, their regulatory functions have not been well elucidated. Here, increased C-C chemokine ligand 6 (CCL6) in asthmatic mice and the human orthologs CCL15 and CCL23 that are highly expressed in asthma patients are described, which are mainly derived from eosinophils. Using Ccl6 knockout mice, further studies revealed CCL6-dependent allergic airway inflammation and committed eosinophilia in the bone marrow following ovalbumin (OVA) challenge and identified a CCL6-CCR1 regulatory axis in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Eosinophil differentiation and airway inflammation were remarkably decreased by the specific CCR1 antagonist BX471. Thus, the study identifies that the CCL6-CCR1 axis is involved in the crosstalk between eosinophils and HSCs during the development of allergic airway inflammation, which also reveals a potential therapeutic strategy for targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for future clinical treatment of asthma.

Abstract
Replication fork reversal is a global response to replication stress in mammalian cells, but precisely how it occurs remains poorly understood. Here, we show that, upon replication stress, DNA topoisomerase IIalpha (TOP2A) is recruited to stalled forks in a manner dependent on the SNF2-family DNA translocases HLTF, ZRANB3, and SMARCAL1. This is accompanied by an increase in TOP2A SUMOylation mediated by the SUMO E3 ligase ZATT and followed by recruitment of a SUMO-targeted DNA translocase, PICH. Disruption of the ZATT-TOP2A-PICH axis results in accumulation of partially reversed forks and enhanced genome instability. These results suggest that fork reversal occurs via a sequential two-step process. First, HLTF, ZRANB3, and SMARCAL1 initiate limited fork reversal, creating superhelical strain in the newly replicated sister chromatids. Second, TOP2A drives extensive fork reversal by resolving the resulting topological barriers and via its role in recruiting PICH to stalled forks.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Airway epithelial cells are recognised as an essential controller for the initiation and perpetuation of asthmatic inflammation, yet the detailed mechanisms remain largely unknown. This study aims to investigate the roles and mechanisms of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (MTOR)-autophagy axis in airway epithelial injury in asthma. METHODS We examined the MTOR-autophagy signalling in airway epithelium from asthmatic patients or allergic mice induced by ovalbumin or house dust mites, or in human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells. Furthermore, mice with specific MTOR knockdown in airway epithelium and autophagy-related lc3b -/- mice were used for allergic models. RESULTS MTOR activity was decreased, while autophagy was elevated, in airway epithelium from asthmatic patients or allergic mice, or in HBE cells treated with IL33 or IL13. These changes were associated with upstream tuberous sclerosis protein 2 signalling. Specific MTOR knockdown in mouse bronchial epithelium augmented, while LC3B deletion diminished allergen-induced airway inflammation and mucus hyperproduction. The worsened inflammation caused by MTOR deficiency was also ameliorated in lc3b -/- mice. Mechanistically, autophagy was induced later than the emergence of allergen-initiated inflammation, particularly IL33 expression. MTOR deficiency increased, while knocking out of LC3B abolished the production of IL25 and the eventual airway inflammation on allergen challenge. Blocking IL25 markedly attenuated the exacerbated airway inflammation in MTOR-deficiency mice. CONCLUSION Collectively, these results demonstrate that allergen-initiated inflammation suppresses MTOR and induces autophagy in airway epithelial cells, which results in the production of certain proallergic cytokines such as IL25, further promoting the type 2 response and eventually perpetuating airway inflammation in asthma.

Abstract
High-throughput gene sequencing has identified various genetic variants as the culprits for some common hereditary cancers. However, the heritability of a substantial proportion of cancers remains unexplained, which may result from rare deleterious mutations hidden in a myriad of nonsense genetic variations. This poses a great challenge to the understanding of the pathology and thus the rational design of effective treatments for affected patients. Here, whole genome sequencing is employed in a representative case in which one monozygotic twin is discordant for lung inflammatory myofibroblastoma to disclose rare tumor-related mutations. A missense single nucleotide variation rs61955126 T>C in the lysine methyltransferase SETD8 (accession: NM_020382, SETD8C302R ) is exposed. It is shown that SETD8 is vital for genomic integrity by promoting faithful DNA replication, and its C302R mutation downregulates the p53/p21 pathway. Importantly, the SETD8C302R mutation significantly increases the sensitivity of cancer cells to WEE1 inhibition. Given that WEE1 inhibitors have shown great promise for clinical approval, these results impart a potential therapeutic approach using WEE1 inhibitor for cancer patients carrying the same mutation, and indicate that genome sequencing and genetic functional studies can be integrated into individualized therapies.

Abstract
Background Asthmatic patients with chest tightness as their only presenting symptom (chest tightness variant asthma [CTVA]) have clinical characteristics of eosinophilic airway inflammation similar to those of classic asthma (CA); however, whether CTVA has similar response to antiasthma treatment as compared with CA remains unclear. Objective The response of 76 CTVA patients to standard asthma treatments with inhaled corticosteroids with long‐acting beta‐agonists was explored in a 52‐week multicenter, prospective, real‐world study. Results After 52 weeks of treatment with therapy regimens used for CA, the mean 5‐point Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ‐5) score decreased markedly from 1.38(first administration) to 0.71 (52 weeks, mean decrease: 0.674, 95%CI: 0.447‐0.900, P<.001).The mean asthma quality‐of‐life questionnaire (AQLQ) score increased from 5.77 (first administration) to 6.20 (52 weeks, mean increase: 0.441, 95% CI 0.258‐0.625, P<.001). Furthermore, at week 52, FVC, FEV1%, the diurnal variation in PEFand the PD20‐FEV1 were significantly improved. Subgroup analysis revealed that the patients at first administration in the responsive group had higher ACQ‐5 scores than those in the nonresponsive group (P < .05). Conclusion In conclusion, patients with CTVA had a good therapeutic response to the guideline‐recommended routine treatment (containing inhaled corticosteroids). The association between the treatment response and the severity of CTVA suggested that CTVA patients with higher ACQ‐5 scores had better therapeutic effects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Eosinophils are critical in allergic disorders, and promoting eosinophil death effectively attenuates allergic airway inflammation. Ferroptosis is a recently described novel form of cell death; however, little is known about ferroptosis in eosinophils and related diseases. This study aimed to investigate the effects of ferroptosis-inducing agents (FINs) on eosinophil death and allergic airway inflammation, and to explore their potential synergistic effect with glucocorticoids (GCs). METHODS Eosinophils isolated from the peripheral blood of humans or mice were incubated with FINs, and eosinophil ferroptosis was assessed. The in vivo effects of FINs alone or in combination with dexamethasone (DXMS) were examined in a mouse model of allergic airway inflammation. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lung tissue were collected to examine airway inflammation. RESULTS Treatment with FINs time and dose dependency induced cell death in human and mouse eosinophils. Interestingly, FINs induced non-canonical ferroptosis in eosinophils, which generated morphological characteristics unique to ferroptosis and was iron dependent but was independent of lipid peroxidation. The antioxidants glutathione and N-acetylcysteine significantly attenuated FIN-induced cell death. Treatment with FINs triggered eosinophil death in vivo and eventually relieved eosinophilic airway inflammation in mice. Furthermore, FINs exerted a synergistic effect with DXMS to induce eosinophil death in vitro and to alleviate allergic airway inflammation in vivo. CONCLUSIONS FINs induced ferroptosis-like cell death of eosinophils, suggesting their use as a promising therapeutic strategy for eosinophilic airway inflammation, especially due to the advantage of their synergy with GCs in the treatment of allergic disorders.

Abstract
1.The objective of the experiment was to analyse serum profiles of goslings with visceral gout and compare them with those of healthy individuals to identify differentially-abundant metabolites as potential biomarkers. 2.Untargeted gas chromatography and time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF-MS) metabolomic profiling was used to compare the serum metabolome of 15 goslings (Anser cygnoides) with gout and 15 healthy goslings (control). 3.Goslings with gout had a metabolic profile distinct from that of the controls, with 45 metabolite levels differing significantly (VIP > 1; P < 0.05) between both groups. Nine metabolites (hydrocortisone, glucose, trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline, galactose, 2-deoxy-D-galactose, beta-mannosylglycerate, d-glucoheptose, zymosterol, and hypoxanthine) were selected through receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis (area under curve (AUC) score ≥0.85) as potential biomarkers. Pathway analysis revealed that metabolites with differing levels were mainly involved in galactose, arginine and proline and purine metabolisms. 4.These results provided new insights into the pathogenesis of gout. Increased xanthine and hypoxanthine with decreased hydrocortisone provide promising biomarkers for gosling gout diagnosis. The findings suggested that hepatic metabolic disorders frequently occur in the development of avian gout.

Abstract
Common fragile sites (CFSs) are genomic loci prone to the formation of breaks or gaps on metaphase chromosomes. They are hotspots for chromosome rearrangements and structural variations, which have been extensively implicated in carcinogenesis, aging, and other pathological processes. Although many CFSs were identified decades ago, a consensus is still lacking for why they are particularly unstable and sensitive to replication perturbations. This is in part due to the lack of high-resolution mapping data for the vast majority of the CFSs, which has hindered mechanistic interrogations. Here, we seek to map human CFSs with high resolution on a genome-wide scale by sequencing the sites of mitotic DNA synthesis (MiDASeq) that are specific for CFSs. We generated a nucleotide-resolution atlas of MiDAS sites (MDSs) that covered most of the known CFSs, and comprehensively analyzed their sequence characteristics and genomic features. Our data on MDSs tallied well with long-standing hypotheses to explain CFS fragility while highlighting the contributions of late replication timing and large transcription units. Notably, the MDSs also encompassed most of the recurrent double-strand break clusters previously identified in mouse neural stem/progenitor cells, thus bridging evolutionarily conserved break points across species. Moreover, MiDAseq provides an important resource that can stimulate future research on CFSs to further unravel the mechanisms and biological relevance underlying these labile genomic regions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) usually experience recurrent acute exacerbations. These patients, especially those with stable COPD, require an effective intervention for treating exacerbations. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Compound Caoshi silkworm granules (CCSGs) in stable COPD patients and to investigate their potential mechanism. METHODS A randomized controlled trial was performed at Jinhua Hospital, Zhejiang University. Patients were enrolled in this study if they met the criterion of stable COPD. A total of 40 patients were randomly divided into the following 2 groups: Group A (n = 20, routine treatment (RT) group) and Group B (n = 20, RT plus CCSGs [RT plus CCSGs] group). The duration of treatment was 3 months. Stool samples were collected from all patients on day 0 and the gut microbiota was analyzed using 16s rRNA sequencing. The St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) scores and lung function were assessed at month 0 and month 3. RESULTS The components of gut microbiota differed between stable COPD patients and the healthy population. The RT plus CCSGs group showed improved SGRQ scores compared to the RT group. There was no difference in forced expiratory volume-one second, forced vital capacity, and forced expiratory volume-one second/forced vital capacity between the two groups. Furthermore, the abundance of gut microbiota in patients with the top 10 SGRQ scores (Group N) differed from the abundance of gut microbiota in those with the lowest 10 SGRQ scores (Group T). CONCLUSION CCSGs have beneficial effects in the improvement of symptoms in stable COPD patients over a 3-month treatment period. The potential underlying mechanism may be attributable to the difference in gut microbiota among patients. However, more research is needed to confirm this conclusion.

Abstract
Nonrandom DNA segregation (NDS) is a mitotic event in which sister chromatids carrying the oldest DNA strands are inherited exclusively by one of the two daughter cells. Although this phenomenon has been observed across various organisms, the mechanism and physiological relevance of this event remain poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that DNA replication stress can trigger NDS in human cells. This biased inheritance of old template DNA is associated with the asymmetric DNA damage response (DDR), which derives at least in part from telomeric DNA. Mechanistically, we reveal that the ATR/CHK1 signaling pathway plays an essential role in mediating NDS. We show that this biased segregation process leads to cell-cycle arrest and cell death in damaged daughter cells inheriting newly replicated DNA. These data therefore identify a key role for NDS in the maintenance of genomic integrity within cancer cell populations undergoing replication stress due to oncogene activation.

Abstract
Neutrophils can regulate adaptive immune responses and contribute to chronic inflammation including asthma. However, the roles and mechanisms of neutrophils in initiating eosinophilic airway inflammation remain incompletely understood. Neutrophil elastase (NE) is a component of azurophilic granules and a serine protease with potent functions during inflammation. Here, we showed that neutrophils were early recruited at the onset of asthmatic inflammation by related chemokines. Furthermore, neutrophils could capture allergens and release NE to promote neutrophil aggregation at first. Then they prompt eosinophil infiltration and amplify type 2 immune responses in later phases. Also, this process can be rescued by administration of the NE inhibitor (GW311616). Our data collectively indicate that neutrophils could contribute to asthmatic inflammation by releasing NE.

Abstract
DNA damage could lead to the accumulation of cytosolic DNA, and the cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway has been implicated in multiple inflammatory diseases. However, the role of cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway in asthma pathogenesis is still unclear. This article explored the role of airway epithelial cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), the major sensor of cytosolic dsDNA, in asthma pathogenesis. Cytosolic dsDNA accumulation in airway epithelial cells (ECs) was detected in the setting of allergic inflammation both in vitro and in vivo. Mice with cGAS deletion in airway ECs were used for OVA- or house dust mite (HDM)-induced allergic airway inflammation. Additionally, the effects of cGAS knockdown on IL-33-induced GM-CSF production and the mechanisms by which IL-33 induced cytosolic dsDNA accumulation in human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells were explored. Increased accumulation of cytosolic dsDNA was observed in airway epithelium of OVA- or HDM-challenged mice and in HBE cells treated with IL-33. Deletion of cGAS in the airway ECs of mice significantly attenuated the allergic airway inflammation induced by OVA or HDM. Mechanistically, cGAS participates in promoting TH2 immunity likely via regulating the production of airway epithelial GM-CSF. Furthermore, Mito-TEMPO could reduce IL-33-induced cytoplasmic dsDNA accumulation in HBE cells possibly through suppressing the release of mitochondrial DNA into the cytosol. In conclusion, airway epithelial cGAS plays an important role via sensing the cytosolic dsDNA in asthma pathogenesis and could serve as a promising therapeutic target against allergic airway inflammation.

Abstract
Asthma is a type of chronic lung inflammation with restrictions in effective therapy. NF-κB pathway activation has been suggested to play an important role in the pathogenesis of asthma. Baicalein, one of the major active flavonoids found in Scutellaria baicalensis, exhibits potent anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting NF-κB activity. Herein, we report that Baicalein significantly reduces OVA-induced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), airway inflammation, serum IgE levels, mucus production, and collagen deposition around the airway. Additionally, western blot analysis and immunofluorescence assay showed that Baicalein attenuates the activation of NF-κB, which was mainly reflected by IκBα phosphorylation and degradation, p65 nuclear translocation and downstream iNOS expression. Furthermore, in human epithelial cells, Baicalein blocked TNF-α-induced NF-κB activation. Our study provides evidence that Baicalein administration alleviates the pathological changes in asthma through inactivating the NF-κB/iNOS pathway. Baicalein might be a promising potential therapy agent for patients with allergic asthma in the future.

Abstract
The nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors 1 and 2 (NOD1/2) are intracellular pattern-recognition proteins that activate immune signaling pathways in response to peptidoglycans associated with microorganisms. Recruitment to bacteria-containing endosomes and other intracellular membranes is required for NOD1/2 signaling, and NOD1/2 mutations that disrupt membrane localization are associated with inflammatory bowel disease and other inflammatory conditions. However, little is known about this recruitment process. We found that NOD1/2 S-palmitoylation is required for membrane recruitment and immune signaling. ZDHHC5 was identified as the palmitoyltransferase responsible for this critical posttranslational modification, and several disease-associated mutations in NOD2 were found to be associated with defective S-palmitoylation. Thus, ZDHHC5-mediated S-palmitoylation of NOD1/2 is critical for their ability to respond to peptidoglycans and to mount an effective immune response.

Abstract
Background. Environmental particulate matter exposure can cause various respiratory problems including aggravated asthma, decreased lung function and increased respiratory symptoms. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying PM-induced lung inflammation are incompletely understood. Effective therapeutic strategies are required. Results. A mouse model of particulate matter-induced lung inflammation was used to identify the pathology and the molecular mechanisms for particulate matter-induced lung inflammation. The mouse model revealed that particulate matter induced neutrophil-dominated lung inflammation. Neutrophils derived from particulate matter-instilled mice showed decreased apoptosis and elevated Bcl-2 expression. Further studies in vav-Bcl-2 transgenic mice made it clear that Bcl-2 overexpression caused a marked increase in neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Furthermore, we found that the Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-199 reduced particulate matter-induced lung inflammation, and induced apoptosis of neutrophils in particulate matter-induced lung inflammation mice model. Conclusions. Particulate matter-induced lung inflammation is mediated in part by inhibition of apoptosis of inflammatory cells. Bcl-2 is responsible for the reduced apoptosis of inflammatory cells in particulate matter-induced lung inflammation. The Bcl-2 selective inhibitor ABT-199 reduces particulate matter-induced lung inflammation by inducing the apoptosis of neutrophils and might be a promising drug for the treatment of particulate matter-induced lung inflammation.

Abstract
The inflammatory cascade can be initiated with the recognition of damaged DNA. Macrophages play an essential role in particulate matter (PM)-induced airway inflammation. In this study, we aim to explore the PM induced DNA damage response of macrophages and its function in airway inflammation. The DNA damage response and inflammatory response were assessed using bone marrow-derived macrophages following PM treatment and mouse model instilled intratracheally with PM. We found that PM induced significant DNA damage both in vitro and in vivo and simultaneously triggered a rapid DNA damage response, represented by nuclear RPA, 53BP1 and γH2AX foci formation. Genetic ablation or chemical inhibition of the DNA damage response sensor amplified the production of cytokines including Cxcl1, Cxcl2 and Ifn-γ after PM stimulation in bone marrow-derived macrophages. Similar to that seen in vitro, mice with myeloid-specific deletion of RAD50 showed higher levels of airway inflammation in response to the PM challenge, suggesting a protective role of DNA damage sensor during inflammation. These data demonstrate that PM exposure induces DNA damage and activation of DNA damage response sensor MRN complex in macrophages. Disruption of MRN complex lead to persistent, unrepaired DNA damage that causes elevated inflammatory response.

Abstract
Elucidation of the pig microRNAome is essential for interpreting functional elements of the genome and understanding the genetic architecture of complex traits. Here, we extracted small RNAs from skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, and we compared their expression levels between one Western breed (Yorkshire) and seven indigenous Chinese breeds. We detected the expression of 172 known porcine microRNAs (miRNAs) and 181 novel miRNAs. Differential expression analysis found 92 and 12 differentially expressed miRNAs in adipose and muscle tissue respectively. We found that different Chinese breeds shared common directional miRNA expression changes compared to Yorkshire pigs. Some miRNAs differentially expressed across multiple Chinese breeds, including ssc-miR-129-5p, ssc-miR-30 and ssc-miR-150, are involved in adipose tissue function. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that the target genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs are associated mainly with signaling pathways rather than metabolic and biosynthetic processes. The miRNA-target gene and miRNA-phenotypic traits networks identified many hub miRNAs that regulate a large number of target genes or phenotypic traits. Specifically, we found that intramuscular fat content is regulated by the greatest number of miRNAs in muscle tissue. This study provides valuable new candidate miRNAs that will aid in the improvement of meat quality and production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is related to inflammation, and the lncRNA H19 is associated with inflammation. However, whether PDGF-BB-H19-let-7b-AT1R axis contributes to the pathogenesis of PAH has not been thoroughly elucidated to date. This study investigated the role of H19 in PAH and its related mechanism. METHODS In the present study, SD rats, C57/BL6 mice and H19-/- mice were injected with monocrotaline (MCT) to establish a PAH model. H19 was detected in the cytokine-stimulated pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), serum and lungs of rats/mice. H19 overexpression and knockdown experiments were also conducted. A dual luciferase reporter assay was used to explore whether let-7b is a sponge miRNA of H19, and AT1R is a novel target of let-7b. A CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry were used to analyse cell proliferation. RESULTS The results showed that H19 was highly expressed in the serum and lungs of MCT-induced rats/mice, and H19 was upregulated by PDGF-BB in vitro. H19 upregulated AT1R expression via sponging miRNA let-7b following PDGF-BB stimulation. AT1R is a novel target of let-7b. Moreover, the overexpression of H19 and AT1R could facilitate PASMCs proliferation in vitro. H19 knockout protected mice from pulmonary artery remodeling and PAH following MCT treatment. CONCLUSION Our study showed that H19 is highly expressed in MCT-induced rodent lungs and upregulated by PDGF-BB. The H19-let-7b-AT1R axis contributed to the pathogenesis of PAH by stimulating PASMCs proliferation. The H19 knockout had a protective role in the development of PAH. H19 may be a potential tar-get for the treatment of PAH.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase (HDAC)2 is expressed in airway epithelium and plays a pivotal role in inflammatory cells. However, the role of HDAC2 in allergic airway inflammation remains poorly understood. In the present study, we determined the role of HDAC2 in airway inflammation using in vivo models of house dust mite (HDM)-induced allergic inflammation and in vitro cultures of human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells exposed to HDM, IL-17A, or both. We observed that HDM-challenged Hdac2+/- mice exhibited substantially enhanced infiltration of inflammatory cells. Higher levels of T helper 2 cytokines and IL-17A expression were found in lung tissues of HDM-challenged Hdac2+/- mice. Interestingly, IL-17A deletion or anti-IL-17A treatment reversed the enhanced airway inflammation induced by HDAC2 impairment. In vitro, HDM and IL-17A synergistically decreased HDAC2 expression in HBE cells. HDAC2 gene silencing further enhanced HDM- and/or IL-17A-induced inflammatory cytokines in HBE cells. HDAC2 overexpresion or blocking IL-17A gene expression restored the enhanced inflammatory cytokines. Collectively, these results support a protective role of HDAC2 in HDM-induced airway inflammation by suppressing IL-17A production and might suggest that activation of HDAC2 and/or inhibition of IL-17A production could prevent the development of allergic airway inflammation.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Interaction of nascent or established lung tumour cells with various cytokines and infiltrating immune cells has been implicated in lung cancer pathogenesis. In this study, we systematically analysed immunoreactivity for IL-17A, IL-17E and IL-17F and their relevant receptors in the lung sections from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and normal control. Immunoreactivity for IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-17RA and IL- 17RC, but not IL-17RB was significantly elevated in NSCLC compared with controls, while IL-17E was reduced. The median numbers of infiltrating lymphocytes and neutrophils and global macrophage (CD68) immunoreactivity of phagocytes were also elevated in NSCLC compared with control tissue sections. Furthermore, correlation between the expression of IL-17A and its receptors IL-17RA and IL- 17RC varied according to NSCLC histopathological type. These data suggest that IL-17A, E, F and their receptors IL-17RA, RB, RC may be involved in the pathogenesis of NSCLC. Further understanding of the relationship between the IL-17/IL-17R axis and the tumour inflammatory microenvironment may reveal new therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Timely and faithful duplication of the entire genome depends on completion of replication. Replication forks frequently encounter obstacles that may cause genotoxic fork stalling. Nevertheless, failure to complete replication rarely occurs under normal conditions, which is attributed to an intricate network of proteins that serves to stabilize, repair and restart stalled forks. Indeed, many of the components in this network are encoded by tumour suppressor genes, and their loss of function by mutation or deletion generates genomic instability, a hallmark of cancer. Paradoxically, the same fork-protective network also confers resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs that induce high-level replication stress. Here, we review the mechanisms and major pathways rescuing stalled replication forks, with a focus on fork stabilization preventing fork collapse. A coherent understanding of how cells protect their replication forks will not only provide insight into how cells maintain genome stability, but also unravel potential therapeutic targets for cancers refractory to conventional chemotherapies.

Abstract
Elimination of airway inflammatory cells is essential for asthma control. As Bcl-2 protein is highly expressed on the mitochondrial outer membrane in inflammatory cells, we chose a Bcl-2 inhibitor, ABT-199, which can inhibit airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness by inducing inflammatory cell apoptosis. Herein, we synthesized a pH-sensitive nanoformulated Bcl-2 inhibitor (Nf-ABT-199) that could specifically deliver ABT-199 to the mitochondria of bronchial inflammatory cells. The proof-of-concept study of an inflammatory cell mitochondria-targeted therapy using Nf-ABT-199 was validated in a mouse model of allergic asthma. Nf-ABT-199 was proven to significantly alleviate airway inflammation by effectively inducing eosinophil apoptosis and inhibiting both inflammatory cell infiltration and mucus hypersecretion. In addition, the nanocarrier or Nf-ABT-199 showed no obvious influence on cell viability, airway epithelial barrier and liver function, implying excellent biocompatibility and with non-toxic effect. The nanoformulated Bcl-2 inhibitor Nf-ABT-199 accumulates in the mitochondria of inflammatory cells and efficiently alleviates allergic asthma.

Abstract
Eosinophil infiltration is considered a hallmark in allergic airway inflammation, and the blockade of eosinophil differentiation may be an effective approach for treating eosinophil-related disorders. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a vital modulator in cell growth control and related diseases, and we have recently demonstrated that rapamycin can suppress eosinophil differentiation in allergic airway inflammation. Considering its critical role in haematopoiesis, we further investigated the role of mTOR in eosinophil differentiation in the context of asthmatic pathogenesis. Intriguingly, the inhibition of mTOR, either by genetic deletion or by another pharmacological inhibitor torin-1, accelerated the eosinophil development in the presence of IL-5. However, this was not observed to have any considerable effect on eosinophil apoptosis. The effect of mTOR in eosinophil differentiation was mediated by Erk signalling. Moreover, myeloid specific knockout of mTOR or Rheb further augmented allergic airway inflammation in mice after allergen exposure. Ablation of mTOR in myeloid cells also resulted in an increased number of eosinophil lineage-committed progenitors (Eops) in allergic mice. Collectively, our data uncovered the differential effects of mTOR in the regulation of eosinophil development, likely due to the distinct functions of mTOR complex 1 or 2, which thus exerts a pivotal implication in eosinophil-associated diseases.
