Tenascin-X is increased with decreased expression of miR-378a-5p and miR-486-5p in mice fed a methionine-choline-deficient diet that induces hepatic fibrosis
In this study, we investigated Tnxb expression in livers with fibrosis caused by administration of a methionine-chorine-deficient (MCD) diet in mice. Whole transcriptome analysis showed that Tnxb was one of the genes with increased expression in livers of MCD diet-fed mice compared with that in livers of normal diet (ND)-fed mice. In microarray and subsequent microRNA (miRNA) network analyses, miR-378a-5p and miR-486-5p were identified in livers of MCD diet-fed mice as downregulated miRNAs, which have their predicted target sites in the 3' untranslated region of Tnxb mRNA and might suppress the translation of Tnxb mRNA. RT...

Microflow, Sequential Coupling and Cyclization Approach for Synthesis of Cyclic Phosphotriesters from PCl3
Chem Asian J. 2024 Mar 31:e202400256. doi: 10.1002/asia.202400256. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAn approach for the synthesis of cyclic phosphotriesters with various ring sizes (5- to 8-membered rings) from phosphorus trichloride and diols was developed. The major challenge in developing this approach is the suppression of the undesired reactions caused by substrates containing multiple highly reactive sites. These undesired reactions were successfully suppressed by microflow technology, which can precisely control the reaction time and temperature. Two optimal conditions were developed, depending on the speed of cyclizat...

Sequential removal of phosphate and copper(II) ions using sustainable chitosan biosorbent
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Mar 28:131178. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131178. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough adsorbents are good candidates for removing phosphorus and heavy metals from wastewater, the use of biosorbents for the sequential treatment of phosphorus and copper has not yet been studied. Porous chitosan (CS)-based biosorbents (CGBs) were developed to adsorb phytic acid (PA), a major form of organic phosphate. This first adsorbate (PA) further served as an additional ligand (P-type ligand) for the CGBs (N-type ligand) to form a complex with the second adsorbate (copper). After the adsorption of PA (the f...

Metallomic mapping of gut and brain in heavy metal exposed earthworms: A novel paradigm in ecotoxicology
This study explored the uptake of lead in the epigeic earthworm Dendrobaena veneta exposed to 0, 1000, and 2500 μg Pb/g soil. The soil metal content was extracted using strong acid digestion and water leaching, and analysed by means of Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) to estimate absolute and bioavailable concentrations of metals in the soil. The guts and heads of lead-exposed earthworms were processed into formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded sections for high-resolution multi-element metallomic imaging via Laser Ablation ICP-MS (LA-ICP-MS). Metallomic maps of phosphorus, zinc, and lead were produced...
