    Abstract: Introduction While combination therapy is the standard of care for relapsed/ refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (RR-NHL), the choice of combinations for an individual patient is empirical, and response rates remain poor. Here we explore the use of a hybrid experimental/analytic method termed Quadratic Phenotypic Optimization Platform (QPOP), for prediction of optimal drug combinations from limited clinical material. This high-throughput platform identifies optimal drug-combinations on ex-vivo biopsies using an orthogonal array composite design to maximise search space. These features are potentially useful to assess personalized efficacious combinations among a set of drugs with single agent pre-clinical or clinical activity in lymphoma. Methods We performed a prospective cohort study of QPOP analysis in RR-NHL. Participants included RR-NHL patients across two tertiary oncology centres in Singapore, with disease amenable to biopsy or blood/ marrow aspiration, recruited between 1 st November 2017 and 5 th May 2021 - with a median follow up of 24.5 months. CD20, CD3 or CD56 selection was performed to enrich for B, T or NK cells respectively, depending on the specimen type. QPOP drug combination scores were derived from lymphoma samples (approximately 1,000,000 cells/ patient) using a matrix of drugs with known pre-clinical or clinical efficacy against NHL. Results were shared with the treating physician, and off-label QPOP-guided therapy was offered in the absence of standard options. The primary outcomes were feasibility and turnaround time of QPOP analysis. The secondary outcomes were identification of recurrent 2 and 3 drug-combinations, and concordance of QPOP results with clinical responses. Results In this interim analysis period, we recruited 63 patients comprising 36 B-NHL and 27 T/NK-NHL, with a median age of 57 years and median 2 prior lines of treatment. Successful QPOP analysis (Z' score & gt;0.5) was feasible in 56/63 cases with an average turn-around time of 6 (±2.1) days. QPOP predicted frequent sensitivities to Copanlisib- and Venetoclax-based combinations in B-NHL, and Romidepsin-based combinations in T/NK-NHL. Importantly, efficacy of specific combinations was not entirely dependent on single agent dose responses. Greater variability in ex-vivo responses was seen with combinations of targeted therapy and cytotoxic therapy compared with combinations of cytotoxic agents. Clinical responses were evaluable for 29 independent treatments in 26 patients. QPOP had a positive predictive value of 60% and a negative predictive value of 78.6% with an area under the curve of 0.672 (95%CI 0.47-0.87; p=0.12) for partial response or better (n=29, p= 0.06). Complete responses were achieved with novel QPOP derived drug combinations in patients refractory to standard therapy. Examples include Palbociclib-Everolimus for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (figure 1) and Romidepsin-copanlisib for extra nodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma. Conclusions Prediction of sensitivity to drug-combinations in a clinically applicable time-frame is feasible for RR-NHL cases through QPOP analysis. The relatively small number of patients treated with QPOP directed regimens makes a definitive conclusion on concordance with clinical outcomes difficult at this stage. QPOP was however able to identify novel clinically effective combinations in patients refractory to standard therapy. These data provide the basis for a prospective clinical trial evaluating QPOP based therapy in RR-NHL. Figure 1 Figure 1.

    Abstract: Plants sense and respond to fluctuating temperature and light conditions during the circadian cycle; however, the molecular mechanism underlying plant adaptability during daytime warm conditions remains poorly understood. In this study, we reveal that the ectopic regulation of a HEAT RESPONSIVE PROTEIN (GhHRP) controls the adaptation and survival of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) plants in response to warm conditions via modulating phytohormone signaling. Increased ambient temperature promptly enhanced the binding of the phytochrome interacting factor 4 (GhPIF4)/ethylene-insensitive 3 (GhEIN3) complex to the GhHRP promoter to increase its mRNA level. The ectopic expression of GhHRP promoted the temperature-dependent accumulation of GhPIF4 transcripts and hypocotyl elongation by triggering thermoresponsive growth-related genes. Notably, the upregulation of the GhHRP/GhPIF4 complex improved plant growth via modulating the abundance of Arabidopsis thaliana auxin biosynthetic gene YUCCA8 (AtYUC8)/1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase 8 (AtACS8) for fine-tuning the auxin/ethylene interplay, ultimately resulting in decreased ethylene biosynthesis. GhHRP thus protects chloroplasts from photo-oxidative bursts via repressing AtACS8 and AtACS7 and upregulating AtYUC8 and the heat shock transcription factors (HSFA2), heat shock proteins (HSP70 and HSP20). Strikingly, the Δhrp disruption mutant exhibited compromised production of HSP/YUC8 that resulted in an opposite phenotype with the loss of the ability to respond to warm conditions. Our results show that GhHRP is a heat-responsive signaling component that assists plants in confronting the dark phase and modulates auxin signaling to rescue growth under temperature fluctuations.

    Abstract: The noncoding regions throughout the genome are in large part comprised of transposable elements (TEs), some of which are functionalized with long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs). DNA methylation is predominantly associated with TEs, but little is known about its contribution to the transcription of lincRNAs. Here, we examine the lincRNA profiles of DNA methylation‐related mutants of five species, Arabidopsis , rice, tomato, maize, and mouse, to elucidate patterns in lincRNA regulation under altered DNA methylation status. Significant activation of lincRNAs was observed in the absence of CG DNA methylation rather than non‐CG. Our study establishes a working model of the contribution of DNA methylation to regulation of the dynamic activity of lincRNA transcription.

    Abstract: Abstract: Context: Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) presents with infiltrative exophthalmos due to excessive proliferation, adipogenesis and glycosaminoglycans production of orbital fibroblasts (OFs). There are few therapies potent for proptosis. Intervention in autophagy of OFs could be a potential therapy. Objectives: Here, our purpose was to evaluate the effects of chloroquine (CQ) and its derivative hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), as autophagy inhibitors commonly used in clinical practice, on GO-OFs from human orbit in vitro. Design/Setting/Participants: OFs isolated from patients with GO (n = 10) or control persons (non-GO) (n = 8) were allowed to proliferate in the proliferation medium (PM) or differentiate into adipocytes in the differentiation medium (DM), co-treated with CQ of different concentrations, and subsequently examined in vitro. Main Outcome Measures: CCK-8, EdU incorporation and flow cytometry were used to assess cellular viability. Adipogenesis was assessed by Western blot, real time-PCR, and Oil Red O staining. Hyaluronan was determined by real time-PCR and ELISA. Autophagy flux was detected using RFP-GFP-LC3 fluorescent staining and Western blot. Results: CQ (10μM) or HCQ (10μM) treatment for 48h was sufficient to block autophagy flux without exhibiting cell toxicity in OFs from either GO or non-GO participants. Cellular proliferation of GO-OFs was halted by both CQ and HCQ. Also CQ and HCQ exerted an inhibitory action on lipid accumulation of GO-OFs during differentiation as well as expression of adipogenetic markers such as PPARγ and c/EBP-α/β. Moreover, hyaluronan secretion, concurrent with expression of hyaluronan synthase 2 (HAS2), was obviously decreased by CQ and HCQ. Conclusions: We reported the efficacies of CQ and HCQ on proliferation, adipogenesis and hyaluronan generation of GO-OFs via inhibiting autophagy, providing proof of concept that quinoline-based antimalarial (QBA) drugs like CQ and HCQ have potential to be a new treatment for GO as autophagy inhibitors.

    Abstract: Increased visceral fat correlates with a high risk of morbidity and mortality from diabetes and other metabolic diseases. To cope with changes of nutritional status, the adipose tissue undergoes dynamic remodeling, during which adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) participate through cell proliferation and adipogenic differentiation into mature adipocytes. Besides, beige adipocytes formation from ADSCs, to dissipate energy as heat in mitochondrial via uncoupling protein1 (UCP1) has been proved to improve energy expenditure. Thus, modifying adipose remodeling and promoting beige adipogenesis of ADSCs in visceral fat bring much metabolic benefits. Newly listed LY3298176, an agonist targeted on glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) /glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor, shows outstanding effect of reducing glucose and weight. Due to superior efficacy in dual-target agonist to GLP-1 monotherapy, and the unknown role of GIP in human visceral adipose, we aimed to clarify GIP’s role in undifferentiated ADSCs in vivo. We selected cell model derived from abdominal omental adipose tissue by obtaining ADSCs via primary culture from patients, because of wide-distributed GIP receptors in fat, and the dominant role of abdominal fat in metabolism. Then the cells were allowed to proliferate, or differentiate into adipocytes in the differentiation medium (DM), with or without co-treated with GIP or GIP3-42 (GIP receptor antagonist), followed by subsequently measurement. CCK-8, EdU incorporation, and cell cycle analysis were conducted to assess cellular proliferation. Annexin V FITC/PI stain, TUNEL and cleaved caspase3 detection were performed to evaluate apoptosis. The related signaling pathway was measured by Western blot and the validation was conducted by using pathway inhibitors followed with the above proliferation and apoptosis analysis. Besides, at the early stage of adipogenesis, mitotic clonal expansion (MCE) was reflected by cell cycle detection. Western blot analysis, quantitative real time-PCR (qRT-PCR), and Oil Red O staining were performed to evaluate adipogenesis. We found that GIP facilitated ADSCs viability and DNA synthesis, accelerated cell cycle progress and reduced palmitate-induced apoptosis by promoting phosphorylation of ERK1/2, AKT, PKA and AMPK. We further confirmed that ADSCs after confluence underwent MCE once induced by DM. GIP also modified adipogenesis by accelerating MCE, upregulating core transcription factor (PPARγ and C/EBPα), increasing beige-related markers (UCP1, PGC1α, PRDM16, et al) while suppressing white-related genes (ZFP423 and TLE3). In summary, we illustrated the efficacies of GIP on proliferation, apoptosis and adipogenesis (especially the beige adipocyte formation) of ADSCs, providing evidence of the additional metabolic benefits of GIP/GLP-1 dual-target agonist over GLP-1 agonist monotherapy in vivo.

    Abstract: WRKY transcription factors have been implicated in plant response to pathogens but how WRKY-mediated networks are organized and operate to produce appropriate transcriptional outputs remains largely unclear. Here, we identify a member of the WRKY family from pepper (Capsicum annuum), CaWRKY28, that physically interacts with CaWRKY40, a positive regulator of pepper immunity and thermotolerance. We confirmed CaWRKY28–CaWRKY40 interaction by coimmunoprecipitation, bimolecular fluorescence complementation, and microscale thermophoresis. Our findings supported the idea that CaWRKY28 is a nuclear protein that acts as positive regulator in pepper responses to infection by the pathogenic bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum. It performs its function not by directly modulating the W-box containing immunity-related genes but by promoting CaWRKY40 via physical interaction to bind and activate its immunity-related target genes, including CaPR1, CaNPR1, CaDEF1, and CaABR1, but not its thermotolerance-related target gene, CaHSP24. All of these data indicate that CaWRKY28 interacts with and potentiates CaWRKY40 in regulating immunity against R. solanacearum infection but not thermotolerance. Importantly, we discovered that CaWRKY28 Cys249, shared by CaWRKY28 and its orthologs probably only in the family Solanaceae, is crucial for the CaWRKY28–CaWRKY40 interaction. These results highlight how CaWRKY28 associates with CaWRKY40 during the establishment of WRKY networks, and how CaWRKY40 achieves its functional specificity during pepper responses to R. solanacearum infection.

    Abstract: Asobara japonica (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is an endoparasitoid wasp that can successfully parasitize a wide range of host species across the Drosophila genus, including the invasive crop pest Drosophila suzukii. Parasitoids are capable of regulating the host metabolism to produce the nutritional metabolites for the survival of their offspring. Here, we intend to investigate the metabolic changes in D. melanogaster hosts after parasitization by A. japonica, using the non-targeted LC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) metabolomics analysis. In total, 3043 metabolites were identified, most of which were not affected by A. japonica parasitization. About 205 metabolites were significantly affected in parasitized hosts in comparison to non-parasitized hosts. The changed metabolites were divided into 10 distinct biochemical groups. Among them, most of the lipid metabolic substances were significantly decreased in parasitized hosts. On the contrary, most of metabolites associated with the metabolism of amino acids and sugars showed a higher abundance of parasitized hosts, and were enriched for a wide range of pathways. In addition, eight neuromodulatory-related substances were upregulated in hosts post A. japonica parasitization. Our results reveal that the metabolites are greatly changed in parasitized hosts, which might help uncover the underlying mechanisms of host manipulation that will advance our understanding of host–parasitoid coevolution.

    Abstract: Low-phosphorus stress (LPS) and pathogen attack are two important stresses frequently experienced by plants in their natural habitats, but how plant respond to them coordinately remains under-investigated. Here, we demonstrate that CaWRKY58, a known negative regulator of the pepper ( Capsicum annuum ) response to attack by Ralstonia solanacearum , is upregulated by LPS. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) and overexpression of CaWRKY58 in Nicotiana benthamiana plants in combination with chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) demonstrated that CaWRKY58 positively regulates the response of pepper to LPS by directly targeting and regulating genes related to phosphorus-deficiency tolerance, including PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE1 (PHR1). Yeast two-hybrid assays revealed that CaWRKY58 interacts with a 14-3-3 protein (Ca14-3-3); this interaction was confirmed by pull-down, bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC), and microscale thermophoresis (MST) assays. The interaction between Ca14-3-3 and CaWRKY58 enhanced the activation of PHR1 expression by CaWRKY58, but did not affect the expression of the immunity-related genes CaNPR1 and CaDEF1 , which are negatively regulated by CaWRKY58 in pepper upon Ralstonia solanacearum inoculation. Collectively, our data indicate that CaWRKY58 negatively regulates immunity against Ralstonia solanacearum , but positively regulates tolerance to LPS and that Ca14-3-3 transcriptionally activates CaWRKY58 in response to LPS.
