    Abstract: Most platelet membrane proteins are modified by mucin-type core 1-derived glycans (O-glycans). However, the biological importance of O-glycans in platelet clearance is unclear. Here, we generated mice with a hematopoietic cell-specific loss of O-glycans (HC C1galt1 −/− ). These mice lack O-glycans on platelets and exhibit reduced peripheral platelet numbers. Platelets from HC C1galt1 −/− mice show reduced levels of α-2,3-linked sialic acids and increased accumulation in the liver relative to wild-type platelets. The preferential accumulation of HC C1galt1 −/− platelets in the liver was reduced in mice lacking the hepatic asialoglycoprotein receptor [Ashwell–Morell receptor (AMR)]. However, we found that Kupffer cells are the primary cells phagocytosing HC C1galt1 −/− platelets in the liver. Our results demonstrate that hepatic AMR promotes preferential adherence to and phagocytosis of desialylated and/or HC C1galt1 −/− platelets by the Kupffer cell through its C-type lectin receptor CLEC4F. These findings provide insights into an essential role for core 1 O-glycosylation of platelets in their clearance in the liver.

    Abstract: The transcription variation, leading to various forms of transcripts and protein diversity, remains largely unexplored in triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs). Here, we presented a comprehensive analysis of RNA splicing in breast cancer to illustrate the biological function and clinical implications of tumor-specific transcripts (TSTs) arising from these splicing junctions. Aberrant RNA splicing or TSTs were frequently harbored in TNBC and were correlated with a poor outcome. We discovered a tumor-specific splicing variant of macrophage receptor with collagenous structure–TST (MARCO-TST), which was distinguished from myeloid cell-specific wild-type MARCO. MARCO-TST expression was associated with poor outcomes in TNBC patients and could promote tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, MARCO-TST interacted with PLOD2 and enhanced the stability of HIF-1α, which resulted in the metabolic dysregulation of TNBC to form a hypoxic tumor microenvironment. MARCO-TST was initiated from a de novo alternative transcription initiation site that was activated by a superenhancer. Tumors with MARCO-TST expression conferred greater sensitivity to bromodomain and extraterminal protein inhibitors. This treatment strategy was further validated in patient-derived organoids. In conclusion, our results revealed the transcription variation landscape of TNBC, highlighting MARCO-TST as a crucial oncogenic transcript and therapeutic target.

    Abstract: Sulfate aerosols exert profound impacts on human and ecosystem health, weather, and climate, but their formation mechanism remains uncertain. Atmospheric models consistently underpredict sulfate levels under diverse environmental conditions. From atmospheric measurements in two Chinese megacities and complementary laboratory experiments, we show that the aqueous oxidation of SO 2 by NO 2 is key to efficient sulfate formation but is only feasible under two atmospheric conditions: on fine aerosols with high relative humidity and NH 3 neutralization or under cloud conditions. Under polluted environments, this SO 2 oxidation process leads to large sulfate production rates and promotes formation of nitrate and organic matter on aqueous particles, exacerbating severe haze development. Effective haze mitigation is achievable by intervening in the sulfate formation process with enforced NH 3 and NO 2 control measures. In addition to explaining the polluted episodes currently occurring in China and during the 1952 London Fog, this sulfate production mechanism is widespread, and our results suggest a way to tackle this growing problem in China and much of the developing world.
