基于系统药理学分析野生真菌硬皮马勃治疗肿瘤多层次作用机制＊

目的 鉴定当地民间应用普遍的野生药用真菌，并探讨其治疗肿瘤的作用机制。方法 采用形态学和分子生物学方法对一株采自定陶仿山野生药用真菌进行鉴定，确定为硬皮马勃。通过文献检索收集硬皮马勃化学成分，利用PubChem软件和TCMSP、GCS数据库得到化学成分结构信息及其药用动力学参数和相关靶点分析，通过SysDT和WES系统鉴定潜在化学成分靶点，利用CTD数据库获得靶点功能，将潜在化合物和肿瘤相关靶点导入Cytoscape3.8.0软件构建分子-靶标网络。应用DAVID数据库对肿瘤相关靶点进行GO和KEGG富集分析，揭示有关活性成分靶点所涉及的生物学过程和通路，将肿瘤相关靶点和通路导入Cytoscape3.8.0软件构建靶点-通路网络。结果 从文献中获得硬皮马勃的化学成分59个，通过ADME计算系统筛选出5个潜在活性的化合物即活性成分，预测到38个靶点，其中与肿瘤相关靶点16个。这些活性成分主要通过Toll-like receptor、PI3K-AKT、MAPK和NF-kappa B等通路参与免疫应答，抑制肿瘤细胞生长、增殖，促进其凋亡。结论 表明硬皮马勃治疗肿瘤具有多靶点、多途径协同作用的特点，并通过多层次效应达到治疗肿瘤的效果。本研究为更好理解硬皮马勃作用肿瘤的机制和肿瘤药物开发提供理论依据。

Genomic variants within chromosome 14q32.32 regulate bone mass through MARK3 signaling in osteoblasts

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a highly heritable predictor of osteoporotic fracture. GWAS have identified hundreds of loci influencing BMD, but few have been functionally analyzed. In this study, we show that SNPs within a BMD locus on chromosome 14q32.32 alter splicing and expression of PAR-1a/microtubule affinity regulating kinase 3 (MARK3), a conserved serine/threonine kinase known to regulate bioenergetics, cell division, and polarity. Mice lacking Mark3 either globally or selectively in osteoblasts have increased bone mass at maturity. RNA profiling from Mark3-deficient osteoblasts suggested changes in the expression of components of the Notch signaling pathway. Mark3-deficient osteoblasts exhibited greater matrix mineralization compared with controls that was accompanied by reduced Jag1/Hes1 expression and diminished downstream JNK signaling. Overexpression of Jag1 in Mark3-deficient osteoblasts both in vitro and in vivo normalized mineralization capacity and bone mass, respectively. Together, these findings reveal a mechanism whereby genetically regulated alterations in Mark3 expression perturb cell signaling in osteoblasts to influence bone mass.     

Interrelationships between Cellular Density,Mosaic Patterning,and Dendritic Coverage of VGluT3 Amacrine Cells

Amacrine cells of the retina are conspicuously variable in their morphologies, their population demographics, and their ensuing functions. Vesicular glutamate transporter 3 (VGluT3) amacrine cells are a recently characterized type of amacrine cell exhibiting local dendritic autonomy. The present analysis has examined three features of this VGluT3 population, including their density, local distribution, and dendritic spread, to discern the extent to which these are interrelated, using male and female mice. We first demonstrate that Bax-mediated cell death transforms the mosaic of VGluT3 cells from a random distribution into a regular mosaic. We subsequently examine the relationship between cell density and mosaic regularity across recombinant inbred strains of mice, finding that, although both traits vary across the strains, they exhibit minimal covariation. Other genetic determinants must therefore contribute independently to final cell number and to mosaic order. Using a conditional KO approach, we further demonstrate that Bax acts via the bipolar cell population, rather than cell-intrinsically, to control VGluT3 cell number. Finally, we consider the relationship between the dendritic arbors of single VGluT3 cells and the distribution of their homotypic neighbors. Dendritic field area was found to be independent of Voronoi domain area, while dendritic coverage of single cells was not conserved, simply increasing with the size of the dendritic field. Bax-KO retinas exhibited a threefold increase in dendritic coverage. Each cell, however, contributed less dendrites at each depth within the plexus, intermingling their processes with those of neighboring cells to approximate a constant volumetric density, yielding a uniformity in process coverage across the population.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Different types of retinal neuron spread their processes across the surface of the retina to achieve a degree of dendritic coverage that is characteristic of each type. Many of these types achieve a constant coverage by varying their dendritic field area inversely with the local density of like-type neighbors. Here we report a population of retinal amacrine cells that do not develop dendritic arbors in relation to the spatial positioning of such homotypic neighbors; rather, this cell type modulates the extent of its dendritic branching when faced with a variable number of overlapping dendritic fields to approximate a uniformity in dendritic density across the retina.
