We examined the effects of the R188C mutation on βB2-crystallin's structural stability and resistance to environmental stressors using purified proteins and cellular models. The βB2-R188C mutant showed poor stability and a tendency to aggregate under physiological and pathological conditions. The mutation disrupted the oligomerization equilibrium, causing dissociation of dimers into monomers. Molecular dynamics simulations and spectroscopic experiments revealed abnormal protein folding induced by the R188C mutation, increasing susceptibility to environmental stressors. Aggregation was observed in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic models under normal conditions, with enhanced severity under environmental stressors. Notably, lanosterol treatment or αB-crystallin partially reversed aggregation. In summary, the R188C mutation promotes abnormal aggregation by destabilizing βB2-crystallin and disrupting oligomerization equilibrium, potentially leading to cataract formation. Targeting aggregate formation with small molecules like lanosterol or enhancing molecular chaperone activity offers a promising strategy for cataract prevention and treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":72997,"journal":{"name":"Exploration (Beijing, China)","volume":"5 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/EXP.20240192","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144315051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faced with the harmful microbial communities in the TME, efforts have been made to develop new technologies specifically targeting the microbiome and tumor microecology. Given the success of nanotechnology in cancer diagnosis and treatment, the development of nanotechnology to regulate microscale and molecular-scale interactions occurring in the microbiome and tumor microecology holds promise for providing new approaches for cancer therapy.

Unfortunately, till now, traditional coatings have the shortcomings of vulnerability and passive corrosion protection, hence functional coatings progressively replace them. Endowing coatings with additional functions not only transform them into active protection mechanisms but also significantly improve life cycle of coatings. However, there is only limited success in combining multiple functions of coatings, which poses considerable obstacles to further advancement of their application researches. In this paper, we summarize the research progress of self-warning and self-repairing coatings in the field of metal corrosion protection as much as possible from the perspective of functional material selection. Meanwhile, the current progress of substituting dual-functional coatings for single-functional coatings is also highlighted. We aim to provide more options and strategic guidance for the design and fabrication of functional coatings on metal surfaces and to explore the possibilities of these designs in practical applications.

The results indicated that PRM-siRNA significantly blocked Aβ aggregation and attenuated Aβ-induced neurotoxicity and apoptosis in vitro by inhibiting ROS-mediated oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction through regulating the Bcl-2 family. PRM-siRNA in vivo effectively improved APP/PS1 mice learning and memory by alleviating neural loss, neurofibrillary tangles and activation of astrocytes and microglial cells in APP/PS1 mice by inhibiting BACE1, oxidative damage and tau phosphorylation.

A significant challenge is the role of activated platelets, as they increase transfer-mediated PD-L1 expression from tumor cells and maintain the integrity of tumor vasculature. These platelets support tumor growth by stabilizing the vasculature and enabling immune evasion, as well as shielding tumor cells from immune detection. To address these platelet-mediated negative antitumor effects, we have developed bioengineered platelets (PTNPs) with surface-anchored ticagrelor-loaded gelatin nanoparticles. This study utilizes the natural tendency of platelets to localize their activated counterparts into tumors. Upon binding to tumor-associated activated platelets, the PTNPs release ticagrelor in response to the secreted matrix metalloproteinases by activated platelet, inhibiting further platelet activation. This reduction in platelet activation lessens platelet-facilitated immunosuppression and diminishes the transferred-PD-L1 expression from cancer cells to platelets, thus enhancing the immune response of anti-PD-L1 therapy. Additionally, this strategy weakens the activated platelets’ contribution to tumor vascular integrity, improving the extravasation and chemotherapeutic efficacy of nanomedicines.
