ABSTRACT

Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6) is a phytochemical widely found in grains and legumes that plays an anti-cancer role. However, the mechanism underlying the inhibition of colorectal cancer metastasis by IP6 through host genes, gut microbiota, and their interactions remain elusive. In this study, 16S rRNA sequencing was used to study the effect of IP6 on gut microbiota in an orthotopic transplantation model of colorectal cancer mice. The transcriptome was used to study the changes of host genes in metastasis and the relationship with gut microbiota. The results showed that the gut microbiota composition of model mice was significantly different from that of normal mice. The beta diversity partly tended to return to the normal level after IP6 intervention. Especially, Lactobacillus helveticus and Lactococcus lactis were recovered after IP6-treated. Enrichment analysis showed that the enrichment score of the Cytokine-Cytokine receptor interaction signal pathway decreased after IP6 treatment compared to the model group. Further analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in this pathway showed that IP6 reduced the expression of the Tnfrsf1b gene related to the area of liver metastasis, and the Tnfrsf1b gene was negatively correlated with the relative abundance of Lactobacillus helveticus. Our results presented that host gene, microbiome and their interaction may serve as promising targets for the mechanism of IP6 intervention in colorectal cancer metastasis.

ABSTRACT

Thrombocytopenia can cause substantial morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. There are multiple etiology factors and various mechanisms associated with thrombocytopenia, of which drug-induced thrombocytopenia (DITP) deserves attention. Herein, we describe a case of severe thrombocytopenia during intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization that was likely to be associated with vancomycin. By revealing the process of identifying this case of DITP and reviewing relevant clinical studies, a risk alert of vancomycin-related severe hematotoxicity should be considered.

ABSTRACT

Protein lysine methyltransferase G9a is widely considered as an appealing antineoplastic target. Herein we present an integrated workflow combining shape-based virtual screening and structure-based molecular modification for the identification of novel G9a inhibitors. The shape-based similarity screening through ROCS overlay on the basis of the structure of UNC0638 was performed to identify CPUY074001 contained a 6H-anthra[1,9-cd]isoxazol-6-one scaffold as a hit. Analysis of the binding mode of CPUY074001 with G9a and 3D-QSAR results, two series compounds were designed and synthesized. The derivatives were confirmed to be active by in vitro assay and the SAR was explored by docking stimulations. Besides, several analogues showed acceptable anti-proliferative effects against several cancer cell lines. Among them, CPUY074020 displayed potent dual G9a inhibitory activity and anti-proliferative activity. Furthermore, CPUY074020 induced cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner and displayed a significant decrease in dimethylation of H3K9. Simultaneously, CPUY074020 showed reasonable in vivo PK properties. Altogether, our workflow supplied a high efficient strategy in the identification of novel G9a inhibitors. Compounds reported here can serve as promising leads for further study.
