Although numerous treatments have been authorized in recent years, they often result in severe side effects and may not fully cure the disease. To combat this issue, immunotherapy has emerged as a promising approach for the prevention and treatment of melanoma. Specifically, the use of epitope melanoma vaccine, a subset of immunotherapy, has recently gained attention. The aim of this study was to create a multi-epitope melanoma vaccine using immunoinformatic methods. Two well-known antigens, NYESO-1 and MAGE-C2, were selected due to their strong immunogenicity and high expression in melanoma. To enhance the immunogenicity of the peptide vaccine, Brucella cell-surface protein 31 (BCSP31), the G5 domain of resuscitation-promoting factor B (RpfB) adjuvants, and the helper epitope of pan HLADR-binding epitope (PADRE) were incorporated to vaccine construct. These different segments were connected with suitable linkers and the resulting vaccine structure was evaluated for its physicochemical, structural, and immunological properties using computational tools. The designed vaccine was found to have satisfactory allergenicity, antigenicity, and physicochemical parameters. Additionally, a high-quality tertiary structure of the vaccine was achieved through modeling, refinement, and validation. Docking and molecular dynamics studies showed that the vaccine had a stable and appropriate interaction with the cognate TLR2 and TLR4 receptors during the simulation period. Finally, in silico immune simulation analysis revealed a significant increase in the levels of helper and cytotoxic T cells, as well as the cytokines interferon-gamma and interleukin-2, after repeated exposure to the melanoma vaccine. These results suggest that the designed vaccine has the potential to be an effective therapeutic option for melanoma. However, additional in vitro and in vivo validations are crucial to assess real-world efficacy and safety.</p>","PeriodicalId":9274,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology and applied biochemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142153161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent findings suggest that targeting neuroinflammation is a promising approach for treating NP. G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55), a member of the GPCR family, plays an important role in neuroinflammatory regulation. CID16020046, a GPR55 agonist, possesses promising anti-neuroinflammatory effects. Herein, the therapeutic effect of CID16020046 on NP was investigated in an NP rat model. The NP model was established using the unilateral sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (CCI) assay. Both sham and CCI rats were intraperitoneally administered with 20 mg/kg CID16020046. NP was assessed using paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) and paw withdrawal latency (PWL). First, we showed that GPR55 was downregulated in the spinal dorsal horn of CCI rats. After CCI rats were treated with CID16020046, the values of PWT and PWL were increased, indicating their effect on pain relief. The treated rats had attenuated release of inflammatory cytokines in the spinal cord, decreased spinal malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, and increased spinal glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) activity. Additionally, the increased levels of phosphorylated nuclear factor (NF)-κB p65 in CCI rats were significantly alleviated by CID16020046 treatment. Mechanistically, we showed that CID16020046 significantly suppressed the activation of the Janus kinase (JAK2)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) pathway in the spinal cord of CCI-treated rats. However, Colivelin TFA (a STAT3 agonist) abolished the effect of CID16020046 on JAK2/STAT3 activation.

Among environmental factors, air pollution is a vital issue in modern life. Despite extensive considerations, it remains uncertain how pollution mediates neurodegeneration in AD. Beta-amyloids and hyperphosphorylated tau proteins are the two main pathological markers that have been studied in AD so far. Tau protein is basically a phosphoprotein whose functions are controlled by phosphorylation. The function of tau protein is to be located on the surface of microtubules and stabilize them. Studies have shown that phosphorylated tau protein (p-tau) exists in cis and trans conformations at Thr231, among which cis is highly neurotoxic. The Pin1 enzyme performs the conversion of cis to trans or vice versa. In this study, an experimental mouse model was designed to investigate the formation of cis p-tau by inducing air pollution. In this way, mice were randomly exposed to pollution at 2-week, 1-month, and 2-month intervals. We investigated the formation of phosphorylated cis tau form during air pollution on mouse brains using Western blots and immunofluorescence. The fluorescent imaging results and Western blotting analysis of mouse brains revealed a significant accumulation of cis p-tau in pollution-treated mice models compared to the healthy control mice. According to Western blot results, air pollution induction caused a significant decrease in Pin1 protein.

Excessive levels of 5-FU in the human body can lead to notable adverse effects, including severe diarrhea, infection, mouth sores, skin peeling, skin inflammation, and ulcers, which are important and relatively common digestive side effects. In addition, 5-FU is an analog of uracil and also has similarities to pyrimidines. Therefore, it is not easy to separate them. This research presented a sensor capable of detecting drugs in minimal amounts. An alginate-derived carbon dot (CD) was synthesized by unique optical properties that obey an on-off fluorescence mechanism for 5-FU sensing. Introducing copper (Cu(I)) to CDs results in fluorescence quenching through electron transfer. However, when 5-FU is added to the system as an oxidizing agent, a redox reaction occurs on the surface of the CDs, which leads to the restoration of fluorescence as Cu(I) is altered to Cu(II). Experimental results showed a strong linear correlation (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.99) in the concentration range of 1.00-45.00 nM, with the following linear regression, and revealed the relative standard deviation (RSD%) and detection limit of 2.57%, and 1.00 nM, respectively. These results validated the excellent detection capability of the proposed method even at low concentrations of 5-FU and in the presence of other drugs and interfering substances. Also, the recovery of 5-FU (varies from 100.46% to 113.7%, with RSD equal to 1.89-3.63) in serum samples indicates the absence of matrix interference in the determination of 5-FU.
