AIM: To compare the changes in retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL)and macular ganglion cell complex(GCC)measured by spectral domain optical coherence tomography(SD-OCT)in non-glaucoma subjects with low, moderate, and high myopia.METHODS: A total of 400 subjects(400 eyes)with myopia who attended our hospital from December 2019 to November 2022 were selected to participate in this study, and the subjects were divided into the following groups according to their degree of myopia: low myopia group(142 cases, 142 eyes, 35.5%), moderate myopia group(139 cases, 139 eyes, 34.8%)and high myopia group(119 cases, 119 eyes, 29.8%). RNFL thickness profiles were measured, including mean, superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal RNFL thickness. GCC parameters were measured, including mean, superior, superior temporal, inferior, inferior temporal, superior nasal, and inferior nasal. Correlation between RNFL thickness measured by OCT, mean GCC parameters, and axial length was evaluated.RESULTS: The mean RNFL thickness above, below and nasal side was significantly higher in the low and moderate myopia groups and the temporal RNFL thickness was significantly lower than the high myopia group(all P<0.05); the mean GCC thickness above, above temporal, below, below temporal, above nasal, below nasal and mean GCC thickness were significantly higher in the low and moderate myopia groups than in the high myopia group(all P<0.05); In the moderate myopia group, the mean RNFL and GCC thickness were both negatively correlated with axial length(r=-0.387, -0.309, all P<0.05). In the high myopia group, both RNFL and GCC thickness means were negatively correlated with eye axis length(r=-0.499, -0.503, all P<0.01).CONCLUSION:RNFL and GCC thicknesses tend to be thinner in subjects with high myopia than in subjects with low and moderate myopia.

Progress on clinical trials of common gastrointestinal cancer drugs in China from 2012 to 2021 / 中华肿瘤杂志

Objective: Systematically summarize the research progress of clinical trials of gastric cancer oncology drugs and the overview of marketed drugs in China from 2012 to 2021, providing data and decision-making evidence for relevant departments. Methods: Based on the registration database of the drug clinical trial registration and information disclosure platform of Food and Drug Administration of China and the data query system of domestic and imported drugs, the information on gastric cancer drug clinical trials, investigational drugs and marketed drugs from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2021 was analyzed, and the differences between Chinese and foreign enterprises in terms of trial scope, trial phase, treatment lines and drug type, effect and mechanism studies were compared. Results: A total of 114 drug clinical trials related to gastric tumor were registered in China from 2012 to 2021, accounting for 3.7% (114/3 041) of all anticancer drug clinical trials in the same period, the registration number showed a significant growth rate after 2016 and reached its peak with 32 trials in 2020. Among them, 85 (74.6%, 85/114) trials were initiated by Chinese pharmaceutical enterprise. Compared with foreign pharmaceutical enterprise, Chinese pharmaceutical enterprise had higher rates of phase I trials (35.3% vs 6.9%, P=0.001), but the rate of international multicenter trials (11.9% vs 67.9%, P<0.001) was relatively low. There were 76 different drugs involved in relevant clinical trials, of which 65 (85.5%) were targeted drugs. For targeted drugs, HER2 is the most common one (14 types), followed by PD-1 and multi-target VEGER. In the past ten years, 3 of 4 marketed drugs for gastric cancer treatment were domestic and included in the national medical insurance directory. Conclusions: From 2012 to 2021, China has made some progress in drug research and development for gastric carcinoma. However, compared with the serious disease burden, it is still insufficient. Targeted strengthening of research and development of investment in many aspects of gastric cancer drugs, such as new target discovery, matured target excavating, combination drug development and early line therapy promotion, is the key work in the future, especially for domestic companies.

AIM:To observe the changes of choroidal thickness(CT)and axial length(AL)in adolescents with myopic anisometropia before and after orthokeratology(OK lenses)treatment.METHODS: In this retrospective case-control study, 71 myopic participants who insisted on using OK lenses more than 6mo at night from June 2020 to September 2021 in Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen were enrolled. They were divided into three groups, including group A consisted of 31 myopic participants with non-anisometropic myopia with binocular lenses(A1 group: the right eyes, A2 group: the left eyes), group B consisted of 18 bilateral myopic anisometropes(B1 group: the eyes with high degree, B2: the eyes with low degree)and group C consisted of 22 unilateral myopic anisometropes(C1: the eyes with high degree, C2: the eyes with low degree). The length of axis, the CT values of subfoveal(SF)and the superior(S0.5, S1.0, S1.5), inferior(I0.5, I1.0, I1.5), temporal(T0.5, T1.0, T1.5)and nasal(N0.5, N1.0, N1.5)at 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5mm from the fovea before and after wearing lenses at 6mo were measured.RESULTS: After wearing lenses at 6mo, CT of all sites in group A1 was all thickening compared with that before wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.05), CT of all sites in group A2 was all thickening compared with that before wearing lenses, there was no difference compared with that before wearing lenses except for the SF, S1.5, T0.5 and T1.5 sites of the CT, the rest of the sites were different before and after wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.05), CT of T1.0, N1.5 and S1.5 sites in B1 group was thicker than that before wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.05), there was no difference in CT of all sites of the patients in group B2 before and after wearing lenses(all P&#x003E;0.05). Among them, the CT at SF, S0.5, S1.0, S1.5, I0.5, I1.0, I1.5, N0.5, N1.0 and N1.5 was thinner than before wearing lenses, but it was not statistically significant. There were differences in all sites of CT in group C1 compared with that before and after wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.05), for the CT of group C2, all the other sites except the points T1.5 and S1.5 was significantly thickened compared with that before wearing lenses(P&#x003C;0.05). The axis of patients in group B2 increased by 0.12±0.14mm after wearing lenses at 6mo compared with that before wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.001). The axis of group C2 increased by 0.20±0.17mm after wearing lenses at 6mo compared with that before wearing lenses(all P&#x003C;0.001). The interocular axial difference in group B and C decreased from 0.54±0.27, 0.88±0.39mm before wearing lenses to 0.47±0.20, 0.62±0.39mm after wearing lenses at 6mo(all P&#x003C;0.05). There was no significant in the interocular axis difference of group A1 and A2 before and after wearing lenses(P&#x003E;0.05).CONCLUSION: For adolescents with myopic anisometropia patients after long-term wearing OK lenses have CT thickening in high degree eyes, but no thickening in low-degree eyes, and even thinning. At the same time, wearing OK lenses can slow axis elongation and reduce interocular anisometropia difference in axis, which is an effective clinical method to control the development of anisometropia.

Advances in proteomic studies of post-translational modifications during spermatogenesis / 生理学报

Spermatogenesis is composed of a series of complex biological events, which are regulated by complex factors. There is a phenomenon of delayed translation in spermatogenesis, so the changes of transcription and protein expression are not completely consistent. Thus post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in spermatogenic biological events. In recent years, the development of proteomics has deepened the discovery of PTM. This paper reviews the advances in multiple PTMs proteomic during testicular spermatogenesis. Their effects on sperm function and fertility, as well as their significance for future diagnosis and treatment are discussed.

Loss of GRB2 associated binding protein 1 in arteriosclerosis obliterans promotes host autophagy / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

BACKGROUND@#Arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) is a major cause of adult limb loss worldwide. Autophagy of vascular endothelial cell (VEC) contributes to the ASO progression. However, the molecular mechanism that controls VEC autophagy remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to explore the role of the GRB2 associated binding protein 1 (GAB1) in regulating VEC autophagy.@*METHODS@#In vivo and in vitro studies were applied to determine the loss of adapt protein GAB1 in association with ASO progression. Histological GAB1 expression was measured in sclerotic vascular intima and normal vascular intima. Gain- and loss-of-function of GAB1 were applied in VEC to determine the effect and potential downstream signaling of GAB1.@*RESULTS@#The autophagy repressor p62 was significantly downregulated in ASO intima as compared to that in healthy donor (0.80 vs. 0.20, t = 6.43, P < 0.05). The expression level of GAB1 mRNA (1.00 vs. 0.24, t = 7.41, P < 0.05) and protein (0.72 vs. 0.21, t = 5.97, P < 0.05) was significantly decreased in ASO group as compared with the control group. Loss of GAB1 led to a remarkable decrease in LC3II (1.19 vs. 0.68, t = 5.99, P < 0.05), whereas overexpression of GAB1 significantly led to a decrease in LC3II level (0.41 vs. 0.93, t = 7.12, P < 0.05). Phosphorylation levels of JNK and p38 were significantly associated with gain- and loss-of-function of GAB1 protein.@*CONCLUSION@#Loss of GAB1 promotes VEC autophagy which is associated with ASO. GAB1 and its downstream signaling might be potential therapeutic targets for ASO treatment.

A longitudinal study about the correlation of cervical length and preterm delivery / 中国医师杂志

Objective To investigate the correlation between cervical length and preterm birth rate in pregnant women with cervical shortening.Methods A group of pregnant women who had had two children in our hospital were included.Both lengths of 24-28 weeks were measured by transvaginal ultrasound during both pregnancies.According to the length of the cervix measured by the vagina during the first trimester and whether it is full-term production,it can be divided into the cervical shortening full-term group,the cervical shortening premature delivery group,the normal cervical full-term group (control group),and the clinical and ultrasound measurements are statistically analyzed.Results The cervical shortening in the preterm group and the cervical shortening in the full-term group were more likely to have cervical reduction in the second pregnancy than in the normal cervical full-term group (P ＜ 0.05).The rate of spontaneous preterm birth in the second trimester of the cervix shortened in the preterm group was the highest (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the preterm birth rate of the second pregnancy between the normal uterine cervix group and the cervical shortened term group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions In the pregnant women with cervical shortening,cervix shortening occurs.Whether the first child is full-term is the key factor in predicting the second premature birth rate.

Effect of P-glycoprotein on the transmembrane absorption and metabolism of quercitrin on Caco-2 cells / 国际药学研究杂志

Objective To explore the role of P-glycoprotein(P-gp)on cellular uptake and metabolism in the transmembrane transport of quercitrin.Methods Caco-2 cell monolayer and P-gp inhibitor Cyclosporin A(CysA)were used in the study.Quercitrin, quercetin,isorhamnetin and tamarixetin were determined by LC-MS to study cellular uptake and metabolism of quercitrin on Caco-2 cells.Results Uptake of quercitrin by Caco-2 cells:in different concentration groups of quercitrin coincubating with and without Cy?sA,intracellular accumulation presented the following characteristics:the amount of quercitrin first rose,reached the peak in 60 min and then declined to a steady-state in 120 min.And meanwhile there were significant differences between the two different processing groups incubating with and without CysA(P<0.05);quercetin was detected in all groups(3.0,9.0 and 27.0 mg/L).But in the higher concentration groups incubating with and without CysA,the intracellular quercetin presented a characteristics similar to its original glycosides and showed a significant difference(P<0.05),while the other groups showed no concentration-and time-dependence.At the same time,isorhamnetin and tamarixetin were detected in two higher concentration groups incubating with and without CysA, which showed the trend similar to the original glycosides but no significant difference was obtained between the two processing groups(P>0.05).Isorhamnetin and tamarixetin were not detected in the low and middle concentration groups.Transmembrane transport:on the basal lateral of all groups,the content of the quercitrin in 150 min incubation time showed a trend of continuous rise,and there was no significant difference between the two processing groups.Quercetin,isorhamnetin and tamarixetin were not detected.Conclu?sion Intact quercitrin could be absorbed into the Caco-2 cells and transported across the Caco-2 cell monolayer,and suffered a series of further metabolism in the Caco-2 cells and the basal side of Caco-2 cell monolayer,leading to different characteristics between intra?cellular accumulation and transmembrane transport.P-gp reduces the transmembrane transport of quercitrin by its efflux function,but did not involved in quercitrin metabolism.

Impaction bone grafting with morselized bone and bone paste for acetabular defects in adult Crowe Ⅲ type developmental dysplasia of the hip / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Considering the risk of lack of bone in revision and the bone coverage of component,it is advisable to use bone grafting to increase bone stock in patients with adult Crowe type Ⅲ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in the first total hip arthroplasty (THA).OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness of impaction bone grafting with morselized bone and bone paste for acetabular defects of adult Crowe type Ⅲ DDH in THA.METHODS:Forty cases (45 hips) of Crowe type Ⅲ DDH were enrolled,including 8 males and 32 females,aged 31-68 years.All the components were reconstructed at the anatomic acetabulum combined with deepening acetabulum and putting the centre of rotation medially and distally during THA procedures.The patients were all followed up and evaluated with Harris score,limp length,displacement of the centre of rotation,cup coverage,and postoperative complications.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average follow-up was 32.7 months.Acetabular rotation centers of all the cases were recovered (near) to normal.The incisions healed by first intention and there was no complication such as infection,dislocation,prosthesis loosening.The acetabular cup prosthesis did not displace and was covered well by bone at the last follow-up,the grafted bone particles got radiological osseointegration and the bone sclerosis zone disappeared.No radiolucent lines and screw fracture were detected.The Harris scores of affected hips at the last follow-up were significantly higher than those before surgery(P=0).The average leg length was increased (2.31 ±0.18) cm.The mean cup coverage was 78.1％.The postoperative horizontal and vertical distance of the hip center were shorter than those before surgery (P=0).Reconstructing the acetabulum with autogenous morselized bone graft impaction can effectively restore the acetabular coverage,maintain the stability of acetabular cup and provide better relative bone stock in THA for Crowe type Ⅲ DDH in adult,and moreover,the short-term effect is satisfactory.

Objective To investigate microstructure of the corpus callosum(CC) in subacute diffuse axonal injury(DAI) patients and its the longitudinal change in a short time.Methods 21 patients with subacute DAI were enrolled successively in this study,and in which 12 patients were reexamined followed-up with DTI a month later (31.5 d±6.2 d,28-43 d),and then 12 gender and age matched healthy controls were recruited.The DTI data of all subjects were acquired on at a 3.0T MRI.The CC was divided into six segments:the genu, rostral mid-body, anterior mid-body,posterior mid-body, isthmus, and splenium.ROIs were placed on each segment on color fractional anisotropy (FA) maps in the midsagittal plane manually.The FA and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) values of each subregion of CC were measured and compared between subacute DAI group,follow-up group and controls respectively.In addition,a related analysis between DTI parameters of each sub-region of CC and GCS on admission was done by using person correlation analysis.

Overexpression of CircRNA BCRC4 Regulates Cell Apoptosis and MicroRNA-101/EZH2 Signaling in Bladder Cancer / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

Emerging evidence has indicated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play pivotal roles in the regulation of cellular processes and are found to be aberrantly expressed in a variety of tumors.However,the clinical role of circRNAs in bladder cancer (BC) and the molecular mechanisms have yet to be fully understood.In this study,the clinical specimens were obtained and the expression level of a circRNA BCRC4 was detected by real-time PCR in both BC tissues and cell line.The circular RNA over-expression plasmid was constructed and transfected into BC cells and related cell line.The cell cycles and apoptosis were observed using inverted microscope and flow cytometry.Western blotting was used to compare the relative protein expression of groups with different treatments.It was found that circRNA BCRC4 expression was lower in BC tissues than in adjacent normal tissues.Furthermore,consequences of fomed-expression of BCRC4 promoted apoptosis and inhibited viability of T24T and UMUC3 cells,and up-regulated BCRC4-inereased miR-101 level,which suppressed EZH2 expression in both RNA and protein levels.In addition,gambogic acid (GA) is a promising natural anticancer compound for BC therapy,and GA treatment increased the BCRC4 expression in T24T and UMUC3 cells in a dose-dependent manner.Altogether,our findings suggest that BCRC4 functions as a tumor suppressor in BC,and mediates anticancer function,at least in part,by up-regulating the expression of miR-101.Targeting this newly identified circRNA may help us develop a novel strategy for treating human BC.
