Article Title: Epigenetically silenced KAT2B suppresses de novo lipogenesis through destroying HDAC5/LSD1 complex assembly in renal cell carcinoma

doi: 10.1016/j.jare.2025.08.007

Figure Lengend Snippet: Therapeutic targeting of KAT2B-low RCC with a FASN inhibitor (A-B) Representative images of IHC staining of FASN in RCC cohort and statistical analysis. (C) Representative images of IHC staining for FASN and KAT2B in RCC tissues with high and low KAT2B expression. (D) Scatter plot of the relationship among KAT2B expression and FASN expression in advanced RCC tumors (n = 53). (E) The cell viability of ACHN and Caki-1 cells after treated with TVB-2640 (n = 4). (F) The cell viability of 786O and 769P cells after treated with TVB-2640 (n = 10). Proteins from three independent sites in RCC tissues were extracted to detect KAT2B expression. (H) Representative images of Caki-1 and ACHN organoids after treatment with TVB-2640 (7.5 μM). 15 organoids were randomly selected from each group for statistical analysis. (I) Representative images of Caki-1 and ACHN organoids after treatment with TVB-2640 (7.5 μM) (n = 15). (J) Representative images of two PDOs with different KAT2B expression after treatment with TVB-2640 (n = 10). (K) Representative images of PRO-1 staining of PDOs. (L-M) The cell viability of ACHN cells (L) and case 1 primary RCC cells (M) with KAT2B knockdown after treated with TVB-2640 (n = 4). (N-O) The picture (N) of xenograft using 786O cells with KAT2B knockdown after treated with TVB-2640, and tumor growth curve (n = 4). Data were analyzed by unpaired t test (B, H, I, J), one-way ANOVA (O) or two-way ANOVA (E, F, G, L, M).

Article Snippet: Four days after inoculation, the mice were randomly divided into two groups and treated with either the vehicle (30 % PEG400) or the FASN inhibitor TVB-2640 (HY-112829, MCE, USA) (100 mg/kg) once daily by oral gavage for 3 consecutive weeks.

Article Title: METTL1-deficient mesenchymal stem cells protect against metabolic-associated fatty liver disease by increasing NAMPT secretion

doi: 10.1093/stcltm/szag016

Figure Lengend Snippet: METTL1-deficient MSCs inhibit lipid synthesis in hepatocytes. (A) Representative images of Nile Red staining in hepatocytes co-cultured with MSC shGFP and MSC shMETTL1 following treatment with FFA (Scale bar = 20 μm). (B) Measurement of TG content in hepatocytes in the indicated groups. (C, D) Western blot analysis of lipid metabolism-related gene expression (FASN, SREBP1, SCD1) in the indicated groups. (E, F) qPCR analysis of lipid synthesis gene expression ( Fasn, Scd1, Srebp1, Fads1 and Acaca ) in AML12 and HepG2 cells co-cultured with MSC shGFP and MSC shMETTL1 . For all statistical graphs, data are presented as mean ± S.E.M, with statistical significance is indicated in the figure.

Article Snippet: Primary antibodies specific for the following proteins were obtained from Cell Signaling Technology: ACC-1 (#3676), SCD1 (#2794), FASN (#3180), p-AKT (#4060), and AKT (#9272).

(D) Analysis of GTT and ITT for the indicated groups. (E) Measurement of serum ALT and AST levels following 7 weeks of cell transplantation. (F) Representative images of HE and Oil Red O staining for analysis of mouse liver tissue (Scale bar = 100 μm). (G) Determination of TG and TC levels in the liver tissue of the specified mice. (H) qPCR analysis of lipid synthesis-related genes, including Fasn, Scd1, Srebp1, Fads1 , and Acaca in the specified groups. (I) Western blot analysis of lipid metabolism-related proteins in the specified groups.
