ABSTRACTS
We reported a general way to design electrochemical biosensors with peptide probes as the receptors of targets and the inducers of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) assembly on electrode surface. To demonstrate the feasibility of our strategy, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) was first determined as a model analyte. Specifically, the hCG-binding peptide triggered the aggregation of AuNPs in solution; by modifying the electrode with the hCG-binding peptide, the peptide-induced AuNPs assembly was achieved on the electrode surface, resulting in the formation of a network of AuNPs and a significant fall of charge transfer resistance. The attachment of hCG onto the electrode surface through the probe-target interaction made the peptide lose its ability to trigger the formation of the AuNPs-based network architecture on electrode surface, thus leading to an increased charge transfer resistance. The electrochemical impedance technique allowed for the determination of hCG with a detection limit 0.6 mIU/mL. Furthermore, the method was used to the selective detection of amyloid-β oligomer (AβO, a reliable molecular biomarker and crucial target for the diagnosis and therapeutic intervention of Alzheimer's disease). Our result indicated that the AuNPs-based colorimetric assay can be developed into a corresponding electrochemical assay with significantly improving sensitivity and selectivity. Taking advantage of the simple principle and the unique physical and chemical properties of AuNPs, our work would be valuable for the design of novel electrochemical biosensors by marrying specific receptors.

Deubiquitinating enzyme USP9X regulates cellular clock function by modulating the ubiquitination and degradation of a core circadian protein BMAL1

Author：Yang Zhang, Chunyan Duan, Jing Yang, Suping Chen,  Qing Liu, Liang Zhou, Zhengyun Huang, Ying Xu, Guoqiang Xu     《Biochemical Journal》 ABSTRACTS Living organisms on the earth maintain a roughly 24 h circadian rhythm, which is regulated by circadian clock genes as well as their protein products. Post-translational modifications of core clock proteins could affect the circadian behavior. Although ubiquitination of core clock proteins was studied extensively, the reverse process, deubiquitination, has only begun to unfold and the role of this regulation on circadian function is not completely understood. Here, we use affinity purification and mass spectrometry analysis to identify probable ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase FAF-X (USP9X) as an interacting protein of the core clock protein aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like protein 1 (ARNTL or BMAL1). Through biochemical experiments, we discover that USP9X reduces BMAL1 ubiquitina...

Targeting the leptin receptor: To evaluate therapeutic efficacy and anti-tumor effects of Doxil, in vitro and in vivo in mice bearing C26 colon carcinoma tumor

Author：Shahrzad Amiri Darban, Sara Nikoofal-Sahlabadi,  Nafise Amiri, Nafiseh Kiamanesh, Amin Mehrabian, Bamdad Zendehbad, Zahra Gholizadeh, Mahmoud Reza Jaafari     《Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces》 ABSTRACTS Leptin is an appetite regulatory hormone that is secreted into the blood circulation by the adipose tissue and it functions via its over expressed receptors (Ob-R) in a wide variety of cancers. In the present study, the function of a leptin-derived peptide (LP16, 91–110 of Leptin) was investigated as a targeting ligand to decorate PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD, Doxil ? ) surface and the anti-tumor activity and therapeutic efficacy of Doxil in C26 (Colon Carcinoma) tumor model were also evaluated. As a result of this, Doxil with different LP16 peptide density (25, 50, 100 and 200 peptide on the surface of each liposome) was successfully prepared and characterized. In vitro results showed significant enhanced cytotoxicity and cellular b...
