In this work, we report a post-synthetic modification strategy to synthesize a boronic acid-functionalized porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (denoted as BA-COF) via the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Interestingly, BA-COF exhibits excellent selectivity in adsorbing cis -diol-containing compounds (CDC). The selective adsorption mechanism was addressed in detail, which is probably due to the boronate affinity from boronic acid group, hydrophilic interaction from the nitrogen-rich framework as well as “host–guest” interaction from the unique “trap” structure of porphyrin-based COF. The characterized results demonstrated its uniform morphology, large specific surface area, and excellent thermal stability. The adsorption kinetics demonstrated that the adenosine adsorption onto BA-COF conformed to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and belonged to chemisorption. Based on the fitting of adsorption isotherms and thermodynamic analysis, the adenosine adsorption onto BA-COF was monomolecular layer adsorption and was a spontaneous endothermic reaction. Moreover, the reuse performance of BA-COF was investigated through consecutive adsorption–desorption cycle experiments. This work also demonstrates the potential of BA-COF for effective and selective adsorption of CDC in real sample.

Rapid and effective separation of nucleotides (NTs) and their derivatives is crucial for studying their physiological functions. In this work, we comprehensively evaluated the separation ability of a zwitterionic hydrophilic monolith, i.e., poly(N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-methacrylamidopropyl)-N-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium betaine- co –N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide) (poly(SPP- co -MBA)) for NTs analysis, including its selectivity, chemical stability under extremely basic condition and compatibility with hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) coupled with mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS). The poly(SPP- co -MBA) monolith exhibited excellent chemical stability, as evidenced by the low relative standard deviation of retention time (0.16–1.05%) after 4000 consecutive injections over one month under strong alkaline elution condition (pH 10). After optimizing the separation conditions, including buffer pH and concentration, organic solvent content and column temperature, four nucleoside triphosphates, five nucleoside diphosphates and five nucleoside monophosphates were baseline separated within 7 min. Additionally, the mixtures containing one nucleoside and its corresponding mono-, di-, and triphosphates were baseline separated within only 3 min, respectively. It is good HILIC-MS compatibility was also confirmed by the satisfactory peak shape and high response of nine NTs. Overall, the proposed poly(SPP- co -MBA) monolith exhibited good mechanical stability and compatibility of HILIC-MS, making it a promising technique for NTs analysis. Graphical Abstract

The development of hyperuricemia (HUA) and gout is associated with dysbiosis of the gut microbiota. Quercetin can reduce serum uric acid levels and thus alleviate HUA by modulating the gut microbiota. However, the detailed mechanisms involved in this process are not fully understood. Here, we showed that quercetin significantly reduced the serum uric acid level in a chicken HUA model by altering the chicken cecal microbiota structure and function and increasing the abundance of Lactobacillus aviarius . An L. aviarius strain, CML180, was isolated from the quercetin-treated chicken gut microbiota. Strain characterization indicated that quercetin promoted the growth of L. aviarius CML180 and increased its adhesion, hydrophobicity, and co-aggregation abilities. Gavage of live L. aviarius CML180 to a mouse model of HUA—established by adenosine and potassium oxonate—reduced the serum uric acid level and alleviated HUA. The ability of L. aviarius CML180 to decrease the level of uric acid was due to its degradation of purine nucleosides, which are the precursors for uric acid production. A nucleoside hydrolase gene, nhy69 , was identified from the genome of L. aviarius CML180, and the resulting protein, Nhy69, exhibited strong purine nucleoside-hydrolyzing activity at mesophilic temperature and neutral pH conditions. These findings provide mechanistic insights into the potential of quercetin to treat HUA or gout diseases via a specific gut microbe.

The effect of steaming treatment on salmon quality was explored by different multi-omics and electronic sensory system in this study. A comparison between conventional steaming (CS) and anaerobic steaming (AS) was conducted in organoleptic quality of salmon. Twelve key volatile compounds were identified, which contributed to the flavor difference. The concentrations of hexanal, (E)-2-octen-1-al, and decanal in AS salmon were significantly lower than in CS salmon, which account for 68.9–80.5 % of the latter. During steaming, the fatty acids and diacylglycerols decreased significantly by 37.4 % and 57.9 %, respectively. Anaerobic steaming limited the degradation of some oxidized lipids, further reduced some volatile secondary oxidation products. Nucleotides and derivatives, succinic acid, glutamic acid, hydroxyproline and betaine contributed to the saltness, umami, richness of steamed salmon. Metabolomics data revealed that the higher creatinine, Ala-Ala and Ala-Leu provided more umami and less bitterness to AS salmon.

A general method was developed for preparing a metal–organic framework–polymer composite coated silica core–shell stationary phase. Silica microspheres were comodified with metal–organic framework and polyvinylpyrrolidone rather than the in situ method of silica modification by original metal–organic framework particles. Metal–organic framework particles and polyvinylpyrrolidone on silica surface were beneficial to suppress silanol activity and enhance composite material tolerance, as well as increasing the water compatibility of the original metal–organic framework-based stationary phases. The stationary phase exhibited superior hydrophilic and hydrophobic performance in terms of separation for various analytes including seven alkaloids, six sulfonamides, five antibiotics, and five polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Moreover, the composite material also showed excellent stability with the relative standard deviation of the retention time of 0.4 to 0.7%. The separation performance with real samples proved that the column has good practical application potential. In summary, the poposed method provides a general way for preparing metal–organic framework–polymer composite material and changed the current status of original metal–organic framework particles modified silica as a single mode chromatographic stationary phase.

In this work, for the first time five amine-ligands including mono-amine, di-amine, tri-amine, secondary and tertiary amine, were functionalized on mesoporous micro-silicas and developed as stationary phases for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The investigations about the retention mechanisms, effects of different chromatographic conditions and stability were systematically conducted. Three kinds of polar and hydrophilic compounds (saccharides, sulfonamides, nucleosides and nucleobases) were selected as probe molecules to evaluate their separation performances. Among the five stationary phases, only aminopropyl-bonded silica has already gained wide developments and applications. Whereas, there are no related researches about the other four to be utilized as separation media. By a series of chromatographic evaluations, the results revealed the other four mesoporous micro-silica materials functionalized with di-amine, tri-amine, secondary and tertiary amine, had great potential to be explored as novel stationary phases of HILIC. Particularly, the two stationary phases functionalized with di-amine and tri-amine exhibited outstanding separation and retention abilities. This work offered some insights on the understanding of retention in HILIC mode and provided us possibility to explore other amine-based HILIC stationary phases.

A convenient synthetic approach to a linear alkyl-polyamine amphiphilic chromatographic selector was proposed. Successive immobilization of the amphiphile onto silica gel afforded a multimodal stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The as-prepared silica material was studied comparatively with a conventional octadecyl (C18) and an amide-embedded C18 stationary phase. The new uniform docosyl-triamine tandem was featured by an enhanced shape selectivity towards geometric isomers, and a low silanol activity towards alkaline solutes. The presence of multiple amino groups rendered the new adsorbent operable in different modes, such as hydrophilic interaction and ion-exchange modes. The satisfactory performance of the said stationary phase in separating different classes of analytes, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, flavonoids, tricyclic antidepressants, calcium channel blockers, aromatic acids, inorganic anions, nucleosides and estrogens, revealed its great potential and high adaptability for multipurpose LC utility.

A simple and sensitive bifunctional electrochemical aptasensor for detection of adenosine and thrombin has been developed using gold nanoparticles–electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (AuNPs-ERGO) composite film-modified electrode. Firstly, the reduced graphene oxide film and AuNPs were sequentially immobilized on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. Secondly, thrombin aptamer was immobilized on the modified electrode. Finally, adenosine aptamer was hybridized with it to serve as a recognition element and methylene blue (MB) as electrochemical signal indicator. In the presence of adenosine or thrombin, the sensor recognized it and a conformational change was induced in aptamer, resulting in decrease of the peak current of MB. The linear relation between concentration of adenosine or thrombin and peak current of MB allowed quantification of them. Thanks to the special electronic characteristic of AuNPs-ERGO composite film, sensitivity of sensor was greatly improved. Under optimal conditions, the proposed aptasensor presented an excellent performance in a linear range of 25 nM to 750 nM for adenosine and 0.5 nM to 10 nM for thrombin. Detection limits were estimated to be 8.3 nM for adenosine and 0.17 nM for thrombin, respectively. Moreover, dual-analyte detection of adenosine and thrombin was achieved without potentially increasing the complexity and cost of the assay.

Cadmium is a carcinogenic heavy metal that poses a severe threat to human beings. The underlying mechanism, however, remains elusive. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant post-transcriptional modification in mRNA that regulates RNA metabolism. Emerging evidence shows that m6A is involved in the pathogenesis of various cancers. In this study, human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells were transformed by exposing to 2 μM of cadmium for 20 weeks to investigate the role of m6A in cadmium carcinogenesis. We found the level of m6A in mRNA was significantly decreased in cadmium-transformed BEAS-2B cells, and this change was regulated by m6A demethylase ALKBH5. ALKBH5 was significantly upregulated in the middle and late stages of cell transformation at week 8, 12, 16 and 20. Knockdown of ALKBH5 in cadmium-transformed cells alleviated cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and anchorage-independent growth, but co-transfection with ALKBH5 siRNA and PTEN siRNA restored the inhibitory effects of ALKBH5 knockdown on those transformation properties. ALKBH5 decreased the m6A level of PTEN mRNA, resulting in its instability and reduction of PTEN protein expression. These results indicate that ALKBH5-mediated demethylation m6A at PTEN mRNA is involved in cadmium-induced cell transformation. Our study provides a new perspective for the involvement of m6A modification in cadmium carcinogenesis.

A single-step copolymerization strategy was developed for the preparation of carbohydrate (glucose and maltose) functionalized monoliths using click reaction. Firstly, novel carbohydrate-functionalized methacrylate monomers were synthesized through Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (alkyne-azide reaction) of terminal alkyne with azide of carbohydrate derivatives. The corresponding carbohydrate functionalized monolithic columns were then prepared through a single-step in-situ copolymerization. The physicochemical properties and performance of the fabricated monolithic columns were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and nano-liquid chromatography. For the optimized monolithic column, satisfactory column permeability and good separation performance were demonstrated for polar compounds including nucleoside, phenolic compounds and benzoic acid derivatives. The monolithic column is also highly useful for selective and efficient enrichment of glycopeptides from human IgG tryptic digests. This study not only provided a novel hydrophilic column for separation and selective trapping of polar compounds, but also proposed a facile and efficient approach for preparing carbohydrate functionalized monoliths.

Epinephrine (EP) is a significant neurotransmitter, energizes and maintains the various body systems and plays a pivotal role in the response to stressful conditions of blood pressure and blood sugar level. Herein, a novel epinephrine sensor based on the hierarchical flower-like zinc oxide nanosheets (flower-like ZnO) embedded into three-dimensional ferrocene-functionalized graphene framework (3D graphene@Fc) was successfully prepared, using a facile route of one-pot in situ hydrothermal growth method. Benefiting from the unique structural advantages, meanwhile integrated with synergistic effect of components, the flower-like ZnO/3D graphene@Fc exhibits excellent sensing performance for epinephrine with a wide linear range of 0.02 to 216 μM, a low detection limit of 0.0093 μM, high anti-interference and good cyclic stability. Interestingly, it is unexpectedly found that the flower-like ZnO/3D graphene@Fc has sensing ability for EP’s oxidized derivative (QA) during the oxidation process of EP, along with a linear range of 0.192 to 527 μM and a detection limit of 0.1 μM for QA. More importantly, acceptable recovery obtained from the real sample test, confirming the feasibility of this biosensor for practical application.

Zwitterionic super-hydrophilic polymers showed fascinating prospects because of their excellent biocompatibility, and antifouling characteristics. However, their commercial development and the application in different fields were limited by their tedious preparation process, unsatisfactory reproducibility and performance. In this study, a rapid fabrication approach based on a sole-monomer system (2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl-[ N -(2-methacryloyloxy)ethyl]phosphorylcholine (MMPC) was simultaneously employed as monomer and crosslinker) was proposed for preparing the cell membrane biomimetic polymers within only 1 h, which is significantly faster than the conventional multi-monomers based approach (~12 h). Furthermore, the proposed strategy turns out to be very simple, time saving and reproducible. The super-hydrophilicity, excellent separation efficiency, biocompatibility and antifouling ability were also achieved on the resulting biomimetic polymers. It is worth noting that the versatile biomimetic polymers exhibited excellent enrichment capacity for N -glycopeptides or C-reactive protein (CRP) from complex biological matrices as well as great separation performance for small bioactive molecules although the PC analogous moiety is located in the middle of the MMPC molecule. In particular, a quite similar binding mode exists between the MMPC dimer and the natural PC ligands to CRP. Therefore, the sole-monomer system can not only simplify the preparation process and improve the reproducibility of the zwitterionic materials, but also combine the advantages of the biomimetic cell membrane surface and the zwitterionic super-hydrophilic polymers for the separation of biomolecules in complex biological fluids.
