Description
Ectopic expression of four transcription factors including Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc in differentiated fibroblast cells could reset the cell fate of fibroblast cells to pluripotent state. Subsequently, fully pluripotency of these so-called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has been demonstrated as viable mice could be generated autonomously from iPS cells through tetraploid blastocyst complementation. Moreover, the generation of human and patient-specific iPS cells have raised the possibility of utilizing iPS cells clinically. However, the utilization of c-Myc in iPS cells induction greatly increased the incidence of tumorigenecity in the iPS-chimeric mice and also might hinder the clinical application of human iPS cells in the future. Fortunately, c-Myc has been recently found dispensable for iPS induction even though the iPS induction efficiency is greatly reduced in the absence of c-Myc. However, it remains unknown if these three factors-induced iPS cells are fully pluripotent. In the present study, we have successfully demonstrated that 3-factor iPS cells could also be fully pluripotent as viable mice could be generated from 3-factor iPS cells autonomously via tetraploid complementation and moreover, our data indicated that the pluripotency regulatory mechanism in 3-factor iPS cells might be distinct from 4-factor iPS cells.

Description
Differentiated somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by forced expression of four transcription factorsOct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. However, it remains undetermined whether the reprogrammed iPS cells are fully pluripotent, resembling normal embryonic stem (ES) cells, given that no iPS cell lines have been shown to possess the capability to autonomously generate full-term mice after injection into tetraploid blastocysts. Here, we provide evidence demonstrating that iPS cells induced by the four transcription factors can be fully pluripotent and that full-term mice can be produced from complemented tetraploid blastocysts. This work serves as a proof of principle that iPS cells can generate full term embryos by tetraploid complementation.
Publication Title
iPS cells can support full-term development of tetraploid blastocyst-complemented embryos.

Description
Docetaxel is an adjuvant chemotherapy drug widely used to treat multiple solid tumors, however its toxicity and side-effect limits its clinical efficacy. Herein, the docetaxel-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (DSNs) were developed to reduce systemic toxicity while still keeping its anti-cancer activity. To evaluate its anti-cancer activity and toxicity and understand the molecular mechanisms of DSNs, different cellular, molecular and whole genome transcription analysis approaches were utilized. The DSNs showed lower cytotoxicity compared with the commercial formulation of docetaxel-Taxotere and induced more apoptosis at 24 h treatment in vitro. It can cause the treated cancer cells arrested at G2/M phase in a dose-depend manner as Taxotere. The DSNs can also suppress tumor growth very effectively in a murine breast cancer model. Systemic analysis of gene expression profiles by microarray and the following verification experiments suggested that both DSNs and Taxotere regulate expression of series genes and these genes functions involved in DNA replication, DNA damage response, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle regulation. Some of these genes expressed differentially at protein level although their transcription level was similar under TAX and DSNs treatment. Moreover, DSNs improved main side-effect of Taxotere by greatly lowering myelosuppression toxicity to bone marrow cells from mice. Taken together, our results expound the anti-tumor efficacy and the potential working mechanisms of DSNs in its anti-cancer activity and toxicity, which provide a theoretical foundation to develop and apply more efficient docetaxel formulation to treat cancer patients.

Description
There is still a big debate about the correlation between melanosis coli (MC) and carcinoma. We used HTA2.0 to investigate the expression changes of lncRNAs and mRNAs in human colonic mucosa with or without MC and try to investigate MC from gene aspect, eventually to demonstrate whether theres a certain correlation between MC and carcinoma.

Description
The widely used white light-emitting diodes (LED) deliver higher levels of blue light than do conventional domestic light sources. The high intensity of blue component is the main source of concern about the health risks of LED with respect to their light-toxicity to the retina. White LED light with higher correlated color temperature (CCT) is more likely to cause retinal injury in mice, significantly reducing the number of ONL nuclei, however apoptosis pathway may not be the only mechanism.

Description
It has been demonstrated that Ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) is overexpressed in colorectal cancer and mediates cancer cell proliferation. We found that RNF43 was frequently overexpressed in HCC, and knockdown of RNF43 could induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation, invasion, colony formation and xenograft growth of HCC cells. Suggesting that RNF43 is involved in tumorigenesis and progression of HCC.
