This technique is particularly advantageous for studies requiring repeated sampling, such as mouse phenotyping, serum cytokine analysis, and diabetes research. The protocol is efficient, requires minimal specialized equipment, and is well-suited for high-throughput cellular analysis in mice. Our primary application is the phenotyping of transgenic, congenic, and reporter mice using flow cytometry, demonstrated here with antibody staining and tdTomato reporter mice. The paper outlines the complete procedure, from animal preparation to sample analysis. Key steps include blood collection with a 3 mm lancet, cell lysis, staining, and flow cytometric profiling. Facial vein venipuncture enhances collection efficiency while supporting ethical research practices.

A consensus pharmacophore integrates common features from multiple ligands, reducing model bias and enhancing predictive power. However, generating a robust consensus pharmacophore from a large and chemically diverse ligand set presents technical challenges. Here, we present a protocol for the construction of consensus pharmacophores using ConPhar, an open-source informatics tool designed to identify and cluster pharmacophoric features across multiple ligand-bound complexes. The protocol includes model generation, refinement, and application to the virtual screening of ultra-large molecular libraries. As a case study, we applied the method to the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro), using one hundred non-covalent inhibitors co-crystallized with the target. The resulting pharmacophore model captured key interaction features in the catalytic region of Mpro and enabled the identification of new potential ligands. This strategy is broadly applicable to any biological target for which ligand-bound conformations are available.

However, there is currently no research that comprehensively examines this relationship within the broader Chinese population. This study aims to explore the relationship between serum uric acid levels and sarcopenia in Chinese adults aged 45 and above, focusing specifically on age-related variations. The present study involved 10,938 participants of the 2015 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). The associations between sarcopenia (including its components) and serum uric acid levels were evaluated using weighted logistic and weighted linear regression models. After categorizing participants by age groups, the subgroup analysis conducted allowed for a more detailed examination of age-related changes. Participants were stratified into quartiles based on their uric acid levels. Adjusted analyses revealed that a higher serum uric acid level was negatively associated with sarcopenia only in individuals aged 65 and older. Results from weighted linear regression analysis indicated a statistically significant positive correlation between serum uric acid levels and both handgrip strength (HGS) and skeletal muscle index (SMI). Moreover, the Q4 group (≥5.70 mg/dL) sustained this positive correlation across all ages. The results showed that higher UA levels were significantly associated with increased SMI and HGS in Chinese people aged 45 years and older.

Aberrant expression of phospholipases A2 (PLA2) leads to demyelination of axons that triggers the development of multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease. To mimic the effects of aberrantly expressed PLA2, we used the basic subunit of viper venom PLA2, HDP-2P. The HDP-2P was tested on phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes enriched with phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI-4-P), or phosphatidylinositol-4,5-diphosphate (PI-4,5-P2).

Curcumin, a bioactive polyphenol, inhibits tumor progression via microRNA-mediated modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling cascade. This study aimed to clarify how curcumin mediates its antitumor effects in RB by investigating its regulation of miRNA-22 (miR-22) expression and exploring the underlying molecular mechanisms. Two validated retinoblastoma models (SO-RB50/WERI-Rb-1) were treated with curcumin at varying concentrations. To delineate miR-22's regulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, target cells were transduced with either a miR-22 mimic lentivirus or a non-functional control lentivirus. Xenograft tumor models were established in mice using human RB cells to observe the in vivo effects of curcumin on tumor size, miR-22 expression, and Wnt/β-catenin protein levels. Cellular proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis were assessed using the CCK-8, Transwell, and Annexin V-APC-PI dual staining assay, respectively. miR-22 levels were quantified by RT-PCR, and Wnt1 and β-catenin expression profiles were determined by Western blot analysis. Curcumin treatment resulted in decreased proliferation and invasiveness in RB cells, while enhancing apoptosis and elevating miR-22 expression. Inhibition of miR-22 diminished curcumin's effects on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. In xenograft studies, curcumin significantly reduced tumor size and enhanced miR-22 expression within the tumors, effectively suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling. These findings demonstrate that curcumin inhibits RB cell proliferation and invasiveness while promoting apoptosis, primarily mediated through miR-22 upregulation and subsequent inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 223","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145287259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
