ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the transcriptomic mechanisms and clinical efficacy of D-CAG regimen for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after failure to initial induction of remission.Methods:The transcriptome data of AML cells before and after the use of dexitabine before August 28, 2021 was searched in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database with "decitabine" as the search term. The R language package was used for differential expression analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of the data. Protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis was conducted on the STRING online analysis website. The accurate treatment prediction platform designed based on logistic omics theory (EpiMed) was used to make drug-disease-target correlation analysis. The clinical data of 18 AML patients treated with D-CAG regimen after failure to induction of remission with standard anthracycline and cytarabine regimen ("3+7" regimen) in the 305th Hospital of Chinese PLA from October 8, 2015 to July 9, 2018 were searched and analyzed, and the curative effect was evaluated. The effects of the dose and duration of each drug on the efficacy were analyzed.Results:The transcriptome data of AML cells before and after the use of decitabine in GSE40442 dataset of the GPL5188 platform were finally selected, updated on July 10, 2014. A total of 366 differentially expressed genes were screened, including 201 up-regulated genes and 165 down-regulated genes. The differential genes were mainly related to cell cycle regulation, bone marrow leukocyte migration and differentiation, transcriptional regulation, bone marrow hematopoiesis and other signaling pathways. Ten core genes such as ANXA5, IL-10, THBS1, TLR4, JUN and CXCL12 were screened by PPI analysis. Drug-disease-target analysis showed that dexitabine had a potential therapeutic effect on various blood diseases such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, thrombocytopenia, T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia, aplastic anemia, and AML. Of the 18 patients, after initial induction of remission, 7 (38.8%) patients achieved partial remission (PR), and 11 (61.2%) patients had no response (NR); after one cycle of re-induction remission therapy, 9 patients had complete remission (CR), 5 patients had PR, 4 patients had NR, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 77.8% (14/18). Compared with patients with NR, the CR rate was higher in patients with PR after initial induction therapy, which were 85.7% (6/7) and 27.3% (3/11), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=5.84, P = 0.025). The median duration of cytarabine in CR patients was longer than that in NR patients [10 d (7-14 d) vs. 5 d (2-8 d), Z = 3.89, P = 0.002] and the median ratio of the number of bone marrow blast cells to the duration cytarabine was lower in CR patients than that in NR patients [2.29 (0.89-9.10) vs. 8.10 (3.00-38.50), Z = -2.19, P = 0.006]; the median dose of cytarabine in CR patients was lower than NR patients, which were 50 mg·m -2·d -1 (30-150 mg·m -2·d -1) and 100 mg·m -2·d -1 (50-500 mg·m -2·d -1), and the difference was not statistically significant ( Z = -1.80, P = 0.074). Conclusions:AML patients with PR after initial induction and failure to initial induction of remission may be more likely to achieve CR after the treatment of D-CAG regimen, and this change may be related to the epigenetic regulation of decitabine.
ABSTRACT
Based on the analysis of the management of Director 's target responsibility system in China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences these years, the methods and experience were introduced in this paper. How to further improve the management was also discussed, providing a certain reference for the target responsibility system management of scientific research institutes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discusse the research status ofyanjing medical school experience method, and provide a reference for relative researchers.Methods Articles in TCM Database System, SinoMed and CNKI were retrieved refined and analyzed t from the year, author, journal, organization and so on after duplicate removing.Results There were 389 related articles published in journals from 1956 to 2012. With 41.90% articles published in 10 core journals, written by 14 main authors. There were 3 hot research areas including experience of famous doctor,syndrome differentiation and treatment and medical record.Conclusion There was lacking of combing on Yanjing medical school and inheritance system. The inheritance of Yanjing medical school was done far from good, and the study on how to inherit Yanjing medical school need strengthening.
