ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the current adherence to imatinib in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) in China and its influencing factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted. Study period: from October 1, 2020 to November 31, 2020. Study subjects: GIST patients taking imatinib who were diagnosed and treated in public tertiary level A general hospitals or oncology hospitals; those who had not been pathologically diagnosed, those who never received imatinib, or those who had taken imatinib in the past but stopped afterwards were excluded. The Questionnaire Star online surgery platform was used to design a questionnaire about the adherence to adjuvant imatinib therapy of Chinese GIST patients. The link of questionnaire was sent through WeChat. The questionnaire contained basic information of patients, medication status and Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. Results: A total of 2162 questionnaires from 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities were collected, of which 2005 were valid questionnaires, with an effective rate of 92.7%. The survey subjects included 1104 males and 901 females, with a median age of 56 (22-91) years old. Working status: 609 cases (30.4%) in the work unit, 729 cases (36.4%) of retirement, 667 cases of flexible employment or unemployment (33.3%). Education level: 477 cases (23.8%) with bachelor degree or above, 658 cases (32.8%) of high school, 782 cases (39.0%) of elementary or junior high school, 88 cases (4.4%) without education. Marital status: 1789 cases (89.2%) were married, 179 cases (8.9%) divorced or widowed, 37 cases (1.8%) unmarried. Two hundred and ninety-four patients (14.7%) had metastasis when they were first diagnosed, including 203 liver metastases, 52 peritoneal metastases, and 39 other metastases. One thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine patients underwent surgical treatment, of whom 1642 (81.9%) achieved complete resection. The median time of taking imatinib was 25 (1-200) months. Common adverse reactions of imatinib included 1701 cases (84.8%) of periorbital edema, 1031 cases (51.4%) of leukopenia, 948 cases (47.3%) of fatigue, 781 cases (39.0%) of nausea and vomiting, 709 cases (35.4%) of rash, and 670 cases (33.4%) of lower extremity edema. The score of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale showed that 392 cases (19.6%) had poor adherence, 1023 cases (51.0%) had moderate adherence, and 590 cases (29.4%) had good adherence. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, work status, economic income, residence, education level, marriage, the duration of taking medication and adverse reactions were associated with adherence to adjuvant imatinib therapy (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that female (OR=1.264, P=0.009), non-retirement (OR=1.454, P=0.001), monthly income ≤4000 yuan (OR=1.280, P=0.036), township residents (OR=1.332, P=0.005), unmarried or divorced or widowed (OR=1.362, P=0.026), the duration of imatinib medication >36 months (OR=1.478, P<0.001) and adverse reactions (OR=1.719, P=0.048) were independent risk factors for poor adherence to adjuvant imatinib. Among patients undergoing complete resection, 324 (19.7%) had poor adherence, 836 (50.9%) had moderate adherence, and 482 (29.4%) had good adherence. Meanwhile, 55 patients with good adherence (11.4%) developed recurrence after surgery, 121 patients with moderate adherence (14.5%) developed recurrence, 61 patients with poor adherence (18.8%) developed recurrence, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.017). Conclusions: The adherence to adjuvant therapy with imatinib in Chinese GIST patients is relatively poor. Females, non-retirement, monthly income ≤4000 yuan, township residents, unmarried or divorced or widowed, the duration of imatinib medication >36 months, and adverse reactions are independently associated with poor adherence of GIST patients. Those with poor adherence have a higher risk of recurrence after surgery. Positive interventions based on the above risk factors are advocated to improve the prognosis of patients with GIST.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we aimed to evaluate the toxic effects, changes in life span, and expression of various metabolism-related genes in Caenorhabditis elegans, using RNA interference (RNAi) and mutant strains, after 3-bromopyruvate (3-BrPA) treatment. C. elegans was treated with various concentrations of 3-BrPA on nematode growth medium (NGM) plates, and their survival was monitored every 24 h. The expression of genes related to metabolism was measured by the real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Nematode survival in the presence of 3-BrPA was also studied after silencing three hexokinase (HK) genes. The average life span of C. elegans cultured on NGM with 3-BrPA was shortened to 5.7 d compared with 7.7 d in the control group. hxk-1, hxk-2, and hxk-3 were overexpressed after the treatment with 3-BrPA. After successfully interfering hxk-1, hxk-2, and hxk-3, the 50% lethal concentration (LC50) of all mutant nematodes decreased with 3-BrPA treatment for 24 h compared with that of the control. All the cyp35 genes tested were overexpressed, except cyp-35B3. The induction of cyp-35A1 expression was most obvious. The LC50 values of the mutant strains cyp-35A1, cyp-35A2, cyp-35A4, cyp-35B3, and cyp-35C1 were lower than that of the control. Thus, the toxicity of 3-BrPA is closely related to its effect on hexokinase metabolism in nematodes, and the cyp-35 family plays a key role in the metabolism of 3-BrPA.

ABSTRACT

At present,allergen-specific immunotherapy(AIT)is the only treatment method that can change the natural course of allergic rhinitis in children. While achieving good clinical efficacy,it reduces the dosage of drugs for AR children,improves the quality of life,prevents AR progression to asthma,and reduces new allergens. New methods and techniques for AIT are designed to shorten the time to reach immune tolerance,improve the compliance of children,enhance the safety of treatment,and reduce the treatment burden as much as possible. Here,we review the clinical progress of AIT in AR children.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics and regularity of ADR induced by antineoplastic drugs and provide reference for safe drug use in clinic. METHODS: ADR reports induced by antineoplastic drugs reported by 108 hospitals during Jan. 2009-Dec. 2016 were collected from PLA ADR Monitoring Center. ADR reports were analyzed respectively in respects of types of ADR reports, patients ' gender and age, administration route, occurrence time, types of antineoplastic drug, the situation of patients suffering tumor, systems/organs involved in ADR, clinical manifestations, outcome, etc. RESULTS: Among 15 183 ADR reports, there were 462 cases of new ADR and 2 873 cases of severe ADR; there were 8 039 male (52. 95%) and 7 144 female (47. 05%). The proportion of severe ADR in female (20. 00%) was significantly higher than male (17. 96%), with statistical significance (P=0. 001). ADR was mainly induced by intravenous administration (90. 53%), and mainly occurred 2-<7 d after medication (23. 00%). Top 3 drug categories in the list of ADR were platinum antineoplastic drugs (25. 63%), plant-derived antineoplastic drugs and its derivative (24. 42%) and anti-metabolism drugs (18. 50%). Male patients mainly suffered from lung cancer, colorectal cancer and gastric cancer; female patients mainly suffered from breast cancer, lung cancer and colorectal cancer. Systems/organs involved in ADR were gastrointestinal system, hematological system and systemic damage. Main clinical manifestations were nausea, vomiting, myelosuppression, skin rash and fever. Totally 92. 57% of ADR cases were cured and recovered after treatment, and 5 cases died. CONCLUSIONS: Antineoplastic drugs have high incidence of ADR with serious damage. Clinic should strengthen the monitoring of key population and key drugs so as to reduce the occurrence of ADR.

ABSTRACT

AIM:To explore the role of Sirt1/eNOS signalling pathway in the protective effect of hydrogen sul-phide(H2S)against endothelial cell senescence induced by high glucose.METHODS:High glucose(33 mmol/L)was applied to induce senescence in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).The cell viability,the propor-tion of senescence-associated β-galactosidase(SA-β-Gal)positive cells and the plasminogen activator inhibitor 1(PAI-1) expression were detected to assess the senescence model.Mean while,Sirt1 siRNA was used to examine the effect of Sirt 1 on eNOS expression and the senescence-related parameters.RESULTS: Treatment of HUVECs with high glucose de-creased the cell viability slowly with a larger proportion of the cells stained with SA-β-Gal, and the protein expression of PAI-1 was dramatically increased.The increased cell viability,reduced SA-β-Gal positive cells and decreased protein ex-pression of PAI-1 were detected after sodium hydrosulfide(NaHS,100 μmol/L)treatment.Furthermore,NaHS treatment upregulated the protein expression of Sirt 1 and eNOS,and eventually increased the production of nitric oxide(NO).CON-CLUSION:Exogenous H2S modulates Sirt1/eNOS/NO pathway to prevent HUVECs against high glucose-induced senes-cence.

ABSTRACT

Rapid mass spectrometry analysis of protein in the solution sample was carried out by using a charged bubble extraction ionization device. In this work, experimental parameters including gases ( N2 and CO2 ) , bubble path length, voltage, and gas pressure on the charged bubble extraction ionization of lysozyme were investigated. Under the optimum experimental parameters including CO2 as extraction gas, bubble path length of 32 cm, solution voltage of 2 kV and gas pressure of 0. 05 MPa, this method was successfully used for the protein detection with the limits of detection of 1 ×10-8 mol/L in water solution and 1 ×10-7 mol/L in diluted urine (200 times in ultrapure water) . In addition, the limit of detection of 1 ×10-5 mol/L in undiluted urine was obtained with a urine volume of 6 mL at 2 kV voltage and 0. 06 MPa gas pressure. By comparing the desalting effects in charged bubble extractive ionization mass spectrometry and ESI-MS, it was found that the bubble charged extraction ionization method could obtain a wider and lower charge state distribution of protein ions, and had higher tolerance ability when facing non-volatile inorganic salts. Off-line study of the collected catalase after charged bubble extraction showed that 53. 9% enzyme activity was remained, which indicated that the proposed method was a soft ionization method. The method had merits including no sample pretreatment, no chemical reagent contamination and high speed, showing potential application to mass spectrometry analysis of protein components in solution. Therefore, this study provided a new method for mass spectrometry analysis of biological protein samples.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expressions of metastasis suppressor 1 (MTSS1 )and calcium activated protein 43 (Cap43)in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)tissue,and to clarify the relationship between the expressions of MTSS1,Cap43 and the clinicopathological features of ESCC.Methods 80 cases of ESCC tissue and 30 cases of normal adjacent-cancer tissue were collected,and the protein and mRNA expressions of MTSS1 and Cap43 in ESCC tissue and normal tissue were detected by streptavidin-perosidase (SP)immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR;their relationships with the clinicopathological features of ESCC were analyzed.Results The positive expression rate of MTSS1 in normal esophagus tissue was significantly higher than that in ESCC tissue detected by SP (83.3%vs 21.3%,P0.05). The mRNA expression of MTSS1 was negatively correlated with the expression of Cap43 (r=-0.457,P<0.05).Conclusion The low-expression of MTSS1 and over-expression of Cap43 in ESCC tissue may contribute to tumor invasion and metastasis;the imbalance of MTSS1 and Cap43 may be one of the mechanisms of tumor invasion and metastases.

ABSTRACT

To investigate the radiosensitizing effects of Radix Angelicae Sinensis-Radix Hedysari [HAS-RH [an ultra- filtration extract]] and its underlying mechanisms in human liver cancer cells H22. This study was conducted between September 2010 and August 2012 in the Gansu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lanzhou, China. The groups were assigned as the control group, drug [RAS-RH] group, [12]C[6-] radiation group, and combination group. The cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, cell cycle changes, and apoptosis analysis were carried out, and survivin and casepase-9 were evaluated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analyses in the 4 groups. The inhibitory effect of RAS-RH on H22 cells was dependent on both concentration and time, RAS-RH was able to enhance the radiosensitivity of H22 cells by increasing cell survival fraction and radiosensitization parameters. Apoptosis and the gap2/mitosis [G2/M] phase transition induced by [12]C[6-] heavy ion radiation was enhanced by RAS-RH treatment. Irradiation, combined with RAS-RH, decreased survivin expression while increasing casepase-9 expression in H22 cells. The RAS-RH increased the radiosensitivity of H22 cells of [12]C[6+] heavy ion radiation significantly, and its possible mechanism of radiosensitization is to enhance caspase-dependent apoptosis through the down-regulation of survivin, thus, it can be used as an effective radiosensitizer

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of the ultra-filtration extract mixture from Hedysarum Polybotrys (UEMHP) on the radiosensitivity of HepG2 cells, and to explore its possible mechanisms.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The proliferation inhibition effects of UEMHP on HepG2 cells was detected by CCK-8 assay. The colony formation assay was used for the survival fraction (SF) analysis. The distribution of the cell cycle and the apoptosis rate were detected using flow cytometry (FCM). The survivin mRNA expression level was detected using reverse transcription-PCR assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The inhibition of UEMHP on HepG2 cells was time-and dose-dependent at the concentration ranging between 5 -50 mg/L (P < 0.05). The parameters of the two curve for SF (P < 0.05) showed statistical difference between the irradiation group and the UEMHP irradiation group. UEMHP could inhibit the clone formation of HepG2 cells and enhance the radiosensitivity of HepG2 cells. The results of FCM showed that UEMHP could induce G2/M phase arrest. The apoptosis rate in the UEMHP irradiation group (21.42% +/- 3.74%) was higher than that in the control group (5.35% +/- 0.41%), the only UEMHP group (10.36% +/- 1.75%), or the irradiation group (10.58% +/- 2.01%) (P < 0.01). RT-PCR showed that the survivin mRNA expression level was lower in the UEMHP irradiation group (0.31 +/- 0.02) than in the control group (0.82 +/- 0.06) and the irradiation group (0.58 +/- 0.04) respectively, showing statistical difference (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>UEMHP can enhance the radiosensitivity of HepG2 cells, and its possible mechanisms might be correlated to down-regulating the survivin mRNA expression and promoting the apoptosis.</p>

ABSTRACT

Both autoimmune hemolytic anemia and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria are common hemolytic diseases. The former causes hemolysis because of immune disorder, and the latter is an acquired clonal hematologic disorder of stem cells. The two entities are often separate diseases, but can also occur concomitantly or secondary to each other. paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria-like defect-like defect is a special type of autoimmune haemolytic anaemia and should be distinguished from typical paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria-like defect.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of activated microglia grafting on rats' hind limb motor function recovery after spinal cord injury.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Microglia were separated from primary culture and subcultured for 3 generations. Lipopolysaccharide was added to the culture medium with the terminal concentration of 10 microl/L for microglia activation 3 days before transplantation. Totally 80 adult Wistar rats were divided into transplantation group and control group, with 40 rats in each group. Spinal cord injury model of rats was set by hitting onto the spinal cord using a modified Allen impactor. With a 5 microl micro-syringe, the activated microglia suspension was injected into the injured area 7 days after the first operation. Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan (BBB) scoring for hind limb motor function was taken on the 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day after microglia transplantation, and 8 rats were sacrificed at each time point mentioned above, respectively. Frozen sections of the spinal cord were made for haematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Naoumenko-Feigin stainings. SPSS 11.0 software was used for statistical analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>BBB scores for hind limb motor function on the 14th, 21st, and 28th day were significantly higher compared with the control group. Most liquefaction necrosis areas disappeared and only a few multicystic cavities surrounded by aggregated microglia remained in the transplantation group. Naoumenko-Feigin staining for microglia showed that the transplantation group had significantly more positive cells (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Grafting of activated microglia into the injured spinal cord can significantly promote the hind limb motor function recovery in rats with spinal cord injury and reduce the size of liquefaction necrosis area. The extent of lower limb motor function improvement has a positive correlation with the number of aggregated microglia.</p>
