Research Spotlight - March 2023
Welcome to the March issue of Research Spotlight! This month, we present an array of research papers offering new insights for cutting-edge biomedical technologies.
One research study describes a novel nanostructure with magnetocaloric oscillation and catalytic effects for pyroptosis-triggered tumor immunotherapy. Another study investigates a brain-targeted peptide-functionalized chitosan nanoparticle for resveratrol delivery, showing promise in combating obesity-related Alzheimer's disease.
Additionally, featured papers contain topics on Litchi procyanidins that inhibit colon cancer proliferation and metastasis, a 3D bioprinting technique for cartilage regeneration, and a novel implant surface modification mode for osteoblastogenesis and angiogenesis.

Structure and Functional Determinants of Rad6–Bre1 Subunits in the Histone H2B Ubiquitin-Conjugating Complex
Authors: Shukla, P.K., Bissell, J.E., Kumar, S., Pokhrel, S., Palani, S…
Journal: Nucleic Acids Research
The conserved complex of the Rad6 E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and the Bre1 E3 ubiquitin ligase catalyzes histone H2B monoubiquitination (H2Bub1), which regulates chromatin dynamics during transcription and other nuclear processes. Here, we report a crystal structure of Rad6 and the non-RING domain N-terminal region of Bre1...

PtNi Nano Trilobal-Based Nanostructure with Magnetocaloric Oscillation and Catalytic Effects for Pyroptosis-Triggered Tumor Immunotherapy
Authors: Wang, S., Vong, L.B., Heger, Z., Zhou, Y., Liang, X., Adam, V., Li, N.
Journal: nanotoday
Pyroptosis, a unique form of programmed cell death, has been verified to be linked to inflammatory diseases and malignant tumors. Although great achievements have been made in pyroptosis research, several gaps, such as innate drug resistance and severe toxicity, hinder the development of pyroptosis inducers for biomedical applications...

Journal: Journal of ImmunoTherapy for Cancer
Introduction: The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) is a major barrier to the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) in glioblastoma (GBM). Transgenic expression of IL15 is one attractive strategy to modulate the TME. However, at present, it is unclear if IL15 could be used to directly target...

Ultrasound Targeted Microbubble Destruction-Triggered Nitric Oxide Release via Nanoscale Ultrasound Contrast Agent for Sensitizing Chemoimmunotherapy
Authors: Zhao, Y., Shi, D., Guo, L., Shang, M., Sun, X., Meng, D., Xiao, S…
Journal: Journal of Nanobiotechnology
Immunotherapy had demonstrated inspiring effects in tumor treatment, but only a minority of people could benefit owing to the hypoxic and immune-suppressed tumor microenvironment (TME). Therefore, there was an urgent need for a strategy that could relieve hypoxia and increase infiltration of tumor lymphocytes simultaneously...

A Novel Implant Surface Modification Mode of Fe3O4-Containing TiO2 Nanorods with Sinusoidal Electromagnetic Field for Osteoblastogenesis and Angiogenesis
Authors: Ren, R., Guo, J., Song, H., Wei, Y., Luo, C., Zhang, Y., Chen, L…
Journal: Materials Today Bio
Implants made of Ti and its alloys are widely utilized in orthopaedic surgeries. However, insufficient osseointegration of the implants often causes complications such as aseptic loosening. Our previous research discovered that disordered titanium dioxide nanorods (TNrs) had satisfactory antibacterial properties and biocompatibility...

Brain Targeted Peptide-Functionalized Chitosan Nanoparticles for Resveratrol Delivery: Impact on Insulin Resistance and Gut Microbiota in Obesity-Related Alzheimer's Disease
Authors: Yang, L., Wang, Y., Li, Z., Wu, X., Mei, J., Zheng, G.
Journal: Carbohydrate Polymers
The pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is highly correlated with obesity-induced insulin resistance. Resveratrol (Res) is a natural phenol that demonstrates a neuroprotective effect, but the bioactivity of Res is low in vivo. Here, chitosan (CS) was cross-linked with sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) to encapsulate low water solubility...

Journal: Cell Death & Disease
Litchi chinensis seed, as a valuable by-product of the subtropical fruit litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), has been confirmed to be rich in procyanidins (LPC). The anticarcinogenic properties of procyanidins has been primarily attributed to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. However, there is a comparative paucity...
