ABSTRACT

Objective This study analyzed the incidence and mortality trends of four types of digestive tract tumors in China from 1990 to 2019,including gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,colorectal cancer,and liver cancer,in order to provide scientific basis for the formulation of prevention and control strategies for digestive tract tumors in China.Methods The Global Burden of Disease Study 2019(GBD 2019)database was used to analyze the trends of standardized incidence and standardized mortality of digestive tract tumors in China by the Joinpoint regression model.The age-period-cohort model was used to explore the age-period and cohort effects on the incidence and mortality of digestive tract tumors.Results The incidence order of digestive tract tumors in 2019 was stomach cancer(43.09/100,000),Colon and rectum(42.74/100,000),esophageal cancer(19.55/100,000)and liver cancer(14.80/100,000).The death order was gastric cancer(29.64/100,000),Colon and rectum(18.40/100,000),esophageal cancer(18.09/100,000)and liver cancer(13.20/100,000).After eliminating the influence of population age structure,the standardized in-cidence and standardized mortality of liver cancer,gastric cancer and esophageal cancer from 1990 to 2019 showed a decreasing trend year by year(AAPC liver cancer incidence=-3.1%,AAPC gastric cancer incidence=-0.07%,AAPC esophageal cancer inci-dence=-1.5%;AAPC liver cancer death=-3.4%,AAPC gastric cancer death=-1.9%,AAPC esophageal cancer death=-1.8%)(P<0.001),and the standardized incidence and standardized mortality of Colon and rectum showed an increasing trend year by year(AAPC Colon and rectum incidence=3.1%,AAPC Colon and rectum death=1.1%)(P<0.001).The results of age-period-cohort model showed that the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer,esophageal cancer and Colon and rectum were increas-ing with age,reached the peak in 85+group,80-84 group and 85+group,respectively.The incidence and mortality of liver cancer peaked in the 55-59 group and then decreased.The risk of Colon and rectum showed an increasing trend year by year,and the risk of death showed a first increasing trend and then decreasing trend.The incidence and mortality of liver cancer showed a decreasing trend followed by an increasing trend,while the overall incidence and mortality of gastric cancer and esophageal cancer showed a decreasing trend year by year.The earlier birth cohort of esophageal cancer and liver cancer,the higher risk of morbidity and mortality,while the later birth cohort of Colon and rectum,the higher risk of morbidity and mortality.The risk of gastric cancer showed the fluctuation.Conclusion The disease burden of digestive tract tumors in China is still heavy in China,especially the standardized incidence and standardized mortality of Colon and rectum are still increasing year by year.It is necessary to implement targeted prevention and treat-ment measures to effectively reduce the disease burden of digestive tract tumors.

ABSTRACT

Objective To report a pedigree with tyrosinemia type Ⅱ,and to analyze its causative mutations.Methods Clinical data were obtained from a 10-year-old male proband with tyrosinemia type Ⅱ,and analyzed retrospectively.Blood and urine samples were collected from 19 persons in 3 generations of the pedigree,and the amino acid level was detected in these samples.Genomic DNA was extracted from all of the 19 family members,and mutations in the tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) gene were detected.Results The patient developed photophobia at 2 months after birth,and the symptom was gradually aggravated after that.At the age of 6 years,ocular pain and photophobia occurred.At the age of 8 years,linear keratotic plaques occurred on his fingertips and soles of both feet,with obvious tenderness.Ophthalmic examination showed no obvious abnormalities in corneal staining or ocular fundus.Skin examination showed multiple linear keratotic plaques on the fingers and soles of both feet.The serum tyrosine level was 825.64 μmol/L,and the level of p-hydroxyphenyllactic acid in urine was 161.4 μmol/L.Genetic testing showed 2 novel mutations,including c.236G > A at position 236 in exon 2 of the TAT gene causing the substitution of glycine by glutamic acid (p.Gly79Glu),and c.1141G > T at position 1141 in exon 10 of the TAT gene leading to the formation of a premature termination codon instead of glutamic acid (p.Glu381*).The proband was the only patient in the family.Some members in the patrilineal family carried the mutation c.1141G > T (p.Glu381*),and some in the maternal family carried the mutation c.236G > A (p.Gly79Glu).Conclusion This is the first case of tyrosinemia type Ⅱ reported in the domestic population,and 2 novel heterozygous mutations were identified in the TAT gene,which may lead to the occurrence of tyrosinemia type Ⅱ in the patient.

ABSTRACT

@#Folic acid(FA)was conjugated with bovine serum albumin(BSA)to form targeting material. BSA-coated cationic nanostructure lipid carriers(BSA-cNLCs)and folate-BSA-coated cationic nanostructure lipid carriers(FA-BSA-cNLCs)were prepared by film dispersion. The particle sizes of BSA-cNLCs and FA-BSA-cNLCs were 81. 4 nm and 79. 8 nm, while their Zeta potentials were +5. 12 mV and +3. 74 mV. Both nanostructure lipid carriers showed spherical shape. Paclitaxel encapsulation efficiency of them were more than 97%, with drug loading efficiency of about 3. 7%. In vitro experiments confirmed that the uptake of FA-BSA-cNLCs by overexpressed folate receptor SKOV3 cells was significantly higher than that of BSA-cNLCs, demonstrating that FA-BSA-cNLCs were obviously targeted to SKOV3. Blood and tumor pharmacokinetics showed that there was no significant differences between BSA-cNLCs and FA-BSA-cNLCs. This suggested that modified FA on the surface of the preparation had no effect on its in vivo behavior. Tumor inhibition of BSA-cNLCs and FA-BSA-cNLCs were 72. 08% and 80. 75%, repectively, which indicateds that FA-BSA-cNLCs improve anticancer efficacy in vitro and in vivo, and that it could be a potential preparation for the treatment of cancer.

ABSTRACT

Objective To screen genes differentially expressed between dermal papilla cells from occipital and vertex scalp of patients with androgenic alopecia (AGA) through a 3D culture system.Methods Dermal papilla cells isolated from the occipital scalp tissue of patients with AGA were cultured in a 2D system for several days.Then,the third-passage dermal papilla cells were subjected to a 3D culture with the presence of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) for 72 hours (experimental group).The dermal papilla cells isolated from the vertex scalp tissue of patients with AGA,which were cultured in a 3D system with dimethyl sulfoxide,but not DHT,served as the control group.Subsequently,total RNA was extracted from the cells and reversely transcribed into cDNA followed by labeling with Cy3 and hybridization to a NimbleGen microarray.Gene ontology (GO) and pathway analysis was carried out to screen differentially expressed genes between the experimental and control group.Real time PCR was conducted to validate the results of microarray analysis.Results As the genome-wide expression profile analysis showed,there were 622 genes differentially expressed between the experimental group and control group,of which,359 were up-regulated and 263 were down-regulated in the experimental group compared with the control group.The above results were corffirmed by real time PCR.GO analysis revealed that the up-regulated genes,such as the CHEK1 and Tobl genes,were mainly involved in the inhibition of cell proliferation and promotion of cell apoptosis,while the down-regulated genes,such as the BAMBI,EFNA3,Dlx3 and UCGC genes,were associated with the acceleration of cell proliferation as well as the growth and development of epidermis.Pathway analysis showed that cell circle-controlling molecules were the most abundant molecules.Conclusions Numerous signalling molecules and pathways are involved in the development of AGA,which are mainly responsible for the modulation of cell circle,proliferation and apoptosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the expression pattern of protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) in human keratinocytes and to characterize its biological functions in the regulation of skin barrier.Methods Primary human keratinocytes and human N/TERT keratinocytes were used as the subject of this study.The expression and distribution of PAR2 in the keratinocytes were analyzed by using immunoflorescence staining and Western blot.Two different PAR2 agonists,trypsin and a PAR2-activating peptide (AP),as well as a PAR2-antagonistic peptide (H2N-FSLLRY-COOH) and a control peptide were used to induce the activation of PAR2 in the keratinocytes.Then,a fluorescence-based calcium mobilization assay was performed to evaluate the biological function of PAR2.Data were statistically analyzed by one-factor analysis of variance.Results Under normal culture conditions,PAR2 was weakly expressed in keratinocytes,and the expression was unaffected by culture medium composition or culture duration.Calcium mobilization was induced by trypsin of 50-250 nmol/L and the PAR2-activating peptide in a dose-and time-dependent pattern.The maximal activation of PAR2 was observed in keratinocytes treated with the PAR2 agonist HAN-SLIGKV-COOH of 75-250 μmol/L.The PAR2-antagonistic peptide (H2N-FSLLRY-COOH) obviously suppressed the increase in calcium mobilization induced by trypsin,while the control peptide PAR-RAP showed no inductive effect on the PAR2 activation based on the absence of calcium mobilization.The substrate-induced calcium release was complete within 250 seconds,and peaked at 50 seconds after the initial trypsin or PAR-AP stimulation.Moreover,the activation of PAR2 was accompanied by an increase in ERK phosphorylation and elicitation of MAPK signaling pathway in keratinocytes.Conclusions Human keratinocytes positively express PAR2,which can be activated by trypsin and PAR2-activating peptides,and the activation of PAR2 may influence the physiological function of keratinocytes by inducing intracellular calcium release.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the cognition and behaviors of sun-protection and the facial photoaging in a Nanjing population, and to analyze the relationships between them. Methods The objects being investigated in Nanjing (n=974) were divided into 10 groups according to age. The ordinary information, knowledge and behavior of sun-protection and Glogau photoageing type of face were studied by questionnaires. The results were analyzed by a logistic regression model to select the related factors to photoageing. Results The risk of skin photoageing increased with age. Most of the 46-65 years old crowds were type Ⅲ photoageing. Most of the objects being investigated had some knowledge and active awareness of sun-protection and could use some ways to protect themselves from sun. However, most people did not use the sunscreen correctly. Those who had higher level awareness and knowledge of sunprotection suffered less risk from skin photoageing. Sunbath without sunscreen for a long time outside activity was a high risk factor of development to skin photoageing. Shade, broad-brimmed hat and sun-protection in autumn were the protective factors. Conclusion Active awareness and correct methods could help prevent skin photoageing. In order to avoid the damages to skin from ultraviolet efficiently, the accurate ways of using sunscreens should be well understood.
