Penstemon lemhiensis Keck (Plantaginaceae) is a rare endemic with small, scattered populations across Idaho and Montana threatened by cumulative impacts of biological invasion, drought, and altered fire regimes. When contextualized by an understanding of rangewide distributions under different environmental change scenarios, conservation genetics can be leveraged to motivate proactive conservation action among collaborating stakeholder groups. We applied a genotypingby- sequencing (GBS) approach across eight populations and 93 individuals of P. lemhiensis. Genetic differentiation among populations followed an isolation-by-distance pattern and ranged from low to moderate (FST = 0.095-0.280). Values of inbreeding were low, and often negative (FIS = -0.039-0.032), indicating outbreeding within populations. Population structure analyses identified six ancestral populations and admixture across all individuals. We contextualized these findings by fitting bioclimatic niche models to past, present, and future climate regime scenarios. Habitat connectivity peaked mid-Holocene and nearly disappeared in the future scenario. Genetic analyses and species distribution models indicated that the species may experience drastic range contraction and accelerated isolation and inbreeding in future. We identified a core area in the Upper Big Hole Valley, Montana most likely to persist as suitable habitat. The National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, and US Forest Service were identified as key stakeholders in that valley. We outline a proactive collaborative conservation strategy that aim to maintain wild P. lemhiensis populations.","PeriodicalId":73617,"journal":{"name":"Journal of bioinformatics and systems biology : Open access","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135952823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The standard of care treatment for NPC involves radiation and chemotherapy. While treatment outcomes continue to improve, up to 50% of patients can be expected to recur by five years, and additional innovative treatment options are needed. We posit that a potential way to do this is by targeting the underlying cause of malignant transformation, namely EBV. One method by which EBV escapes immune surveillance is by undergoing latent phase replication, during which EBV expression of immunogenic proteins is reduced. However, chemoradiation is known to drive conversion of EBV from a latent to a lytic phase. This creates an opportunity for the targeting of EBV-infected cells utilizing antiviral drugs. Indeed, we found that combining acyclovir with cisplatin and radiation significantly decreases the viability of the EBV-infected C666- 1 cell line. Western blot quantification revealed a resultant increase of thymidine kinase (TK) and apoptosis-inducing mediators, cleaved PARP (cPARP) and phosphorylated ERK (pERK). These studies suggest that the addition of anti-viral drugs to frontline chemoradiation may improve outcomes in patients treated for EBV-related NPC and future in vivo and clinical studies are needed.","PeriodicalId":73617,"journal":{"name":"Journal of bioinformatics and systems biology : Open access","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135954929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The progression of NAFLD into Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is mediated by inflammatory chemokines, cytokines, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress resulting in hepatocyte inflammation, ballooning, apoptosis, and activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC). NASH can further lead to cirrhosis, hepatic carcinoma, and also it is predicted to be a major cause of liver transplantation over the next 10 years. Chemokine receptors are majorly involved in recruiting the monocytes in the liver where they are converted into pro-inflammatory macrophages, which further activate the hepatic stellate cell (HSCs) to promote their survival while activating collagen production and fibrogenesis. Thus, chemokines and their receptor play a vital role in the pathogenesis of NASH and can be a potential target for the treatment of NASH. Herein, in this study, we have carried out a structure-based design of CCR2 and CCR5 dual antagonists. We performed pharmacophore mapping studies followed by virtual screening of commercial database to obtain novel molecules which can potentially act as CCR2 and CCR5 dual antagonists. We also performed molecular docking studies of newly obtained hits molecules to see their interactions with both CCR2 and CCR5 receptors. Non-alcoholic By evaluating the chemical structures of the top five molecules, it was observed that all five molecules possess C2 symmetry. The docking results of the top five molecules showed that Thr284, Trp86, Tyr89, and Glu283 (in CCR5) and Asp283, Val37, Asn286, His202, and Gln288 (in CCR2) residues were involved in hydrogen bond interactions. The molecules also showed π-π stacking interaction with key residues Phe112, Tyr108, Phe109, Trp86, and Tyr89 (in CCR5) and HIE121, Trp98, Tyr120 (in CCR2). Additionally, in some molecule’s halogen bond was also observed. The residues which formed the halogen bond include Phe182, Thr195 (in CCR5), and Lys38 (in CCR2).

The expression of NDRG1 protein, encoded by NDRG1 gene, has already been correlated with tumor progression and evasion, but information on different types of neoplasm is still contentious. Objective: To explore probable correlations of susceptibleness, progression and clinical characteristics between NDRG1 gene polymorphisms (SNPs) and patients that developed thyroid tumors. Methods: SNPs were obtained from the NCBI dbSNP. The encoded protein primary sequences were got from the UniProt database. We employed the three FASTA primary sequences to analyze the amino acid changes. The bioinformatics tools used were: PredictSNP1.0 (which encompasses: PANTHER, SNAP, PolyPhen-1, PhD-SNP, nsSNPAnalyze, SIFT, PredictSNP, PolyPhen-2, MAPP,); I-Mutant2.0; MUpro; PROVEAN; Haploview and SNPs3D). Results: The NCB database reports 319 missense SNPs in the NDRG1 gene. The SIFT tool predicted that 51 nsSNPs of 109 (which means 46.78%) were deleterious; the SNAP tool predicted nearly 30%; PolyPhen-2, 53 (48.62%); 52 (47.70%) derived from PhD-SNP; PolyPhen-1 indicated 38 nsSNPs (approximately 35%); and MAPP showed 47 (which is 43%). Finally, the PredictSNP toll contemplated 13 (approximately 12%) nsSNPs deleterious by all integrated tools, including rs201348291 and rs15132213, whose scores were the most significant, thus indicating a higher possibility that these SNPs are correlated and influence the pathophysiology of thyroid neoplasm.

Abstract Context and The use of chloramphenicol (CAM) has been reduced due to the side effects associated with its use (Bone marrow depression, neurotoxicity) and the increase in resistance to CAM that some microbes develop. To overcome these difficulties, two CAM derivatives, L1 and L2, and their respective iron complexes were synthesized to evaluate in silico their biopharmaceutical properties. The substrate (CAM), as well as the basic reagents (AAP and AASC) were purified from commercial pharmaceuticals. The CAM derivatives (L1 and L2) and also their iron complexes (C1, C2, and C3) were synthesized and showed maximum absorbance at 335 nm for CAM, 325 nm for L1, 395 nm for L2, at 330 nm for C1, at 325 nm for C2, and at 335 nm for C3. The in silico simulations performed with the above-mentioned tools showed that all the ligands (CAM, L1, and L2) present good similarities with the drugs, a good bioavailability because they were compliant with the Lipinski rule. The complexes, although bioavailable, did not conform to Lipinski's rule. CAM showed efficacy in enzymatic inhibition. However, L1 and L2 ligands perform better in ion channel modulation, kinase, and protease inhibition. This suggests that the ligands have better therapeutic performance and may well address several clinical needs. The C3 complex was the compound that showed better bioavailability and high bioactivity thus it was the most bioactive. L1, L2, and C3 could therefore be potential and promising candidates for CAM substitution.
