| 1 | Tomato DCL2b is required for the biosynthesis of 22-nt small RNAs, the resulting secondary siRNAs, and the host defense against ToMV显示文摘The tomato encode four functional DCL families,of which DCL2 is poorly studied.Here,we generated loss-of-function mutants for a tomato DCL2 gene,dcl2b,and we identified its major role in defending against tomato mosaic virus in relation to both natural and manual infections.Genome-wide small RNA expression profiling revealed that DCL2b was required for the processing 22-nt small RNAs,including a few species of miRNAs.Interestingly,these DCL2b-dependent 22-nt miRNAs functioned similarly to the DCL1-produced 22-nt miRNAs in Arabidopsis and could serve as triggers to generate a class of secondary siRNAs.In particular,the majority of secondary siRNAs were derived from plant defense genes when the plants were challenged with viruses.We also examined differentially expressed genes in dcl2b through RNA-seq and observed that numerous genes were associated with mitochondrial metabolism and hormone signaling under virus-free conditions.Notably,when the loss-of-function dcl2b mutant was challenged with tomato mosaic virus,a group of defense response genes was activated,whereas the genes related to lipid metabolism were suppressed.Together,our findings provided new insights into the roles of tomato DCL2b in small RNA biogenesis and in antiviral defense. | Tian Wang Zhiqi Deng Xi Zhang Hongzheng Wang Yu Wang Xiuying Liu Songyu Liu Feng Xu Tao Li Daqi Fu Benzhong Zhu Yunbo Luo Hongliang Zhu | 2018 | Horticulture Research2018，5，1： | 4 |
| 2 | Glucocorticoid receptor modulates myeloid-derived suppressor cell function via mitochondrial metabolism in immune thrombocytopenia显示文摘Myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs)are a heterogeneous population of immature cells and natural inhibitors of adaptive immunity.Intracellular metabolic changes in MDSCs exert a direct immunological influence on their suppressive activity.Our previous study demonstrated that high-dose dexamethasone(HD-DXM)corrected the functional impairment of MDSCs in immune thrombocytopenia(ITP);however,the MDSC population was not restored in nonresponders,and the mechanism remained unclear.In this study,altered mitochondrial physiology and reduced mitochondrial gene transcription were detected in MDSCs from HD-DXM nonresponders,accompanied by decreased levels of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1(CPT-1),a rate-limiting enzyme in fatty acid oxidation(FAO).Blockade of FAO with a CPT-1 inhibitor abolished the immunosuppressive function of MDSCs in HD-DXM responders.We also report that MDSCs from ITP patients had lower expression of the glucocorticoid receptor(GR),which can translocate into mitochondria to regulate the transcription of mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA)as well as the level of oxidative phosphorylation.It was confirmed that the expression of CPT-1 and mtDNA-encoded genes was downregulated in GR-siRNA-treated murine MDSCs.Finally,by establishing murine models of active and passive ITP via adoptive transfer of DXM-modulated MDSCs,we confirmed that GR-silenced MDSCs failed to alleviate thrombocytopenia in mice with ITP.In conclusion,our study indicated that impaired aerobic metabolism in MDSCs participates in the pathogenesis of glucocorticoid resistance in ITP and that intact control of MDSC metabolism by GR contributes to the homeostatic regulation of immunosuppressive cell function. | Yu Hou Jie Xie Shuwen Wang Daqi Li Lingjun Wang Haoyi Wang Xiaofei Ni Shaoqiu Leng Guosheng Li Ming Hou Jun Peng | 2022 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2022，19，7： | 4 |
| 3 | Evolutionary transition between invertebrates and vertebrates via methylation reprogramming in embryogenesis显示文摘Major evolutionary transitions are enigmas,and the most notable enigma is between invertebrates and vertebrates,with numerous spectacular innovations.To search for the molecular connections involved,we asked whether global epigenetic changes may offer a clue by surveying the inheritance and reprogramming of parental DNA methylation across metazoans.We focused on gametes and early embryos,where the methylomes are known to evolve divergently between fish and mammals.Here,we find that methylome reprogramming during embryogenesis occurs neither in pre-bilaterians such as cnidarians nor in protostomes such as insects,but clearly presents in deuterostomes such as echinoderms and invertebrate chordates,and then becomes more evident in vertebrates.Functional association analysis suggests that DNA methylation reprogramming is associated with development,reproduction and adaptive immunity for vertebrates,but not for invertebrates.Interestingly,the single HOX cluster of invertebrates maintains unmethylated status in all stages examined.In contrast,the multiple HOX clusters show dramatic dynamics of DNA methylation during vertebrate embryogenesis.Notably,the methylation dynamics of HOX clusters are associated with their spatiotemporal expression in mammals.Our study reveals that DNA methylation reprogramming has evolved dramatically during animal evolution,especially after the evolutionary transitions from invertebrates to vertebrates,and then to mammals. | Xiaocui Xu Guoqiang Li Congru Li Jing Zhang Qiang Wang David KSimmons Xuepeng Chen Naveen Wijesena Wei Zhu Zhanyang Wang Zhenhua Wang Bao Ju Weimin Ci Xuemei Lu Daqi Yu Qian-fei Wang Neelakanteswar Aluru Paola Oliveri Yong EZhang Mark QMartindale Jiang Liu | 2019 | National Science Review2019，6，5： | 2 |

| 5 | Radial deformation of single-walled carbon nanotubes on quartz substrates and the resultant anomalous diameter-dependent reaction selectivity显示文摘Owing to the unique conjugated structure, the chemical-reaction selectivity of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has attracted great attention. By utilizing the radial deformation of SWNTs caused by the strong interactions with the quartz lattice, we achieve an anomalous diameter-dependent reaction selectivity of quartz lattice-oriented SWNTs in treatment with iodine vapor; this is distinctly different from the widely reported and well accepted higher reaction activity in small-diameter tubes compared to large-diameter tubes. The radial deformation of SWNTs on quartz substrate is verified by detailed Raman spectroscopy and mappings in both G-band and radial breathing mode. Due to the strong interaction between SWNTs and the quartz lattice, large-diameter tubes present a larger degree of radial deformation and more delocalized partial electrons are distributed at certain sidewall sites with high local curvature. It is thus easier for the carbon--carbon bonds at these high-curvature sites on large-diameter tubes to break down during reaction. This anomalous reaction activity offers a novel approach for selective removal of small-band^aD large-diameter tubes. | Juan Yang Yu Liu Daqi Zhang Xiao Wang Ruoming Li Yan Li | 2015 | Nano Research2015，8，9： | 0 |
