Abstract
Among female oncology patients, cervical cancer stands as the fourth most prevalent malignancy, exerting significant impacts on their health. Over 600,000 women received the diagnosis of cervical cancer in 2020, and the illness claimed over 300,000 lives globally. Curdepsidone A, a derivative of depsidone, was isolated from the secondary metabolites of Curvularia sp. IFB-Z10. In this study, we revised the molecular structure of curdepsidone A and investigated the fundamental mechanism of the anti-tumor activity of curdepsidone A in HeLa cells for the first time. The results demonstrated that curdepsidone A caused G0/G1 phase arrest, triggered apoptosis via a mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, blocked the autophagic flux, suppressed the PI3K/AKT pathway, and increased the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in HeLa cells. Furthermore, the PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) promoted apoptosis induced by curdepsidone A, while the PI3K agonist (IGF-1) eliminated such an effect. ROS scavenger (NAC) reduced curdepsidone A-induced cell apoptosis and the suppression of autophagy and the PI3K/AKT pathway. In conclusion, our results revealed that curdepsidone A hindered cell growth by causing cell cycle arrest, and promoted cell apoptosis by inhibiting autophagy and the ROS-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway. This study provides a molecular basis for the development of curdepsidone A as a new chemotherapy drug for cervical cancer.

Abstract
Cartilage has a limited ability to repair itself, highlighting the urgent need for suitable materials for cartilage regeneration. Achieving a balance between cell survival environment and hydrogel crosslinking density is crucial for photosensitive cell-laden cartilage repair materials to achieve both high strength and good cell viability. Here, an interpenetrating hydrogel consisted of methacrylate gelatin (GelMA) and glycidyl methacrylate silk fibroin (SG) was introduced. Compared to GelMA hydrogel, GelMA/SG had desired mechanical properties, with achieving up to 5 times of compression modulus and 6 times of compression failure energy. Meanwhile, the chondrocytes inside GelMA/SG exhibited great viability which was over 90 %. GelMA/SG as a bioink had favorable printability for digital light processing (DLP) bioprinting. The mesh DLP-printed scaffolds with high precision were created and GelMA/SG had a better shape retention ability than GelMA. Moreover, GelMA/SG cell-laden scaffolds had high strength while chondrocytes proliferated significantly in vitro culture. They were implanted under the skin of nude mice to evaluate ectopic chondrogenesis in vivo. The GelMA/SG cell-laden scaffolds indicated little deformation and high expression of collagen type II and glycosaminoglycans, which was advantageous for cartilage regeneration. The scaffold and its fabrication strategy provide potential solutions for clinical cartilage repair problems in the future.

Abstract
An in situ microscope based on pulsed transmitted light illumination via optical fiber was combined to artificial-intelligence to enable for the first time an online cell classification according to well-known cellular morphological features. A 848 192-image database generated during a lab-scale production process of antibodies was processed using a convolutional neural network approach chosen for its accurate real-time object detection capabilities. In order to induce different cell death routes, hybridomas were grown in normal or suboptimal conditions in a stirred tank reactor, in the presence of substrate limitation, medium addition, pH regulation problem or oxygen depletion. Using such an optical system made it possible to monitor real-time the evolution of different classes of animal cells, among which viable, necrotic and apoptotic cells. A class of viable cells displaying bulges in feast or famine conditions was also revealed. Considered as a breakthrough in the catalogue of process analytical tools, in situ microscopy powered by artificial-intelligence is also of great interest for research.

Abstract
Unsymmetric lipophilic polyamine derivatives are considered as potential antitumor agents. Here, a series of novel symmetric lipophilic polyamines (LPAs) based on norspermine and triethylenetetramine (TETA) backbones bearing alkyl substituents with different lengths (from decyl to octadecyl) at C(1) atom of glycerol were synthesized. Performed screening of the cytotoxicity of novel compounds on the panel of tumor cell lines (MCF-7, KB-3-1, B16) and non-malignant fibroblasts hFF3 in vitro revealed a correlation between the length of the aliphatic moieties in LPAs and their toxic effects - LPAs with the shortest decyl substituent were found to exhibit the highest cytotoxicity. Furthermore, norspermine-based LPAs displayed somewhat more pronounced cytotoxicity compared with their TETA-based counterparts. Further mechanistic studies demonstrated that hit LPAs containing the norspermine backbone and tetradecyl or decyl substituents efficiently induced apoptosis in KB-3-1 cells. Moreover, decyl-bearing LPA inhibited motility and enhanced adhesiveness of murine B16 melanoma cells in vitro, showing promising antimetastatic potential. Thus, developed novel symmetric norspermine-based LPAs can be considered as promising anticancer chemotherapeutic candidates.

Abstract
The HEK293 cell line has earned its place as a producer of biotherapeutics. In addition to its ease of growth in serum-free suspension culture and its amenability to transfection, this cell line’s most important attribute is its human origin, which makes it suitable to produce biologics intended for human use. At the present time, the growth and production properties of the HEK293 cell line are inferior to those of non-human cell lines, such as the Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and the murine myeloma NSO cell lines. However, the modification of genes involved in cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, metabolism, glycosylation, secretion, and protein folding, in addition to bioprocess, media, and vector optimization, have greatly improved the performance of this cell line. This review provides a comprehensive summary of important achievements in HEK293 cell line engineering and on the global engineering approaches and functional genomic tools that have been employed to identify relevant genes for targeted engineering.
