The role of γ-aminobutyric acid in tumor immunity / 药学学报

italic>γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a crucial inhibitory neurotransmitter found in various cells in the human body. While the GABAergic system is typically associated with the nervous system, recent research has revealed that immune cells and tumor cells also express components of this system. In the tumor microenvironment (TME), GABA is secreted to act extracellularly on other cells. GABA is metabolized via the GABA shunt and is involved in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle by generating succinate, which can provide energy for tumor cells. Activation of GABA receptors (GABARs) is a major pathway through which GABA participates in the regulation of antitumor immune responses. The activation of GABA type A receptors (GABAARs) can inhibit the activation and proliferation of T cells, elicit anti-inflammatory macrophages, and promote tumor cell growth and migration, while activation of GABA type B receptors (GABABRs) is generally considered to inhibit cancer cell migration and induce cancer cell apoptosis. In general, receptor activation inhibits immune cells, but the effect on tumor cells varies. Additionally, the downregulation of the expression levels of GABA transporters (GATs) is involved in tumor progression. Although antagonists of GABA metabolism and drugs that act on GABA receptors are considered therapeutic drugs for tumors, there have been few clinical studies conducted on them.

Gut Microbiota Alteration Influences Colorectal Cancer Metastasis to the Liver by Remodeling the Liver Immune Microenvironment

Background/Aims@#This study aimed to explore the effect of gut microbiota-regulated Kupffer cells (KCs) on colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastasis. @*Methods@#A series of in vivo and in vitro researches were showed to demonstrate the gut microbiota and its possible mechanism in CRC liver metastasis. @*Results@#Fewer liver metastases were identified in the ampicillin-streptomycin-colistin and colistin groups. Increased proportions of Parabacteroides goldsteinii, Bacteroides vulgatus, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, and Bacteroides uniforms were observed in the colistin group. The significant expansion of KCs was identified in the ampicillin-streptomycin-colistin and colistin groups. B.vulgatus levels were positively correlated with KC levels. More liver metastases were observed in the vancomycin group. An increased abundance of Parabacteroides distasonis and Proteus mirabilis and an obvious reduction of KCs were noted in the vancomycin group. P. mirabilis levels were negatively related to KC levels. The number of liver metastatic nodules was increased in the P. mirabilis group and decreased in the B. vulgatus group. The number of KCs decreased in the P. mirabilis group and increased in the B. vulgatus group. In vitro, as P. mirabilis or B. vulgatus doses increased, there was an opposite effect on KC proliferation in dose- and time-dependent manners. P. mirabilis induced CT26 cell migration by controlling KC proliferation, whereas B. vulgatus prevented this migration. @*Conclusions@#An increased abundance of P. mirabilis and decreased amount of B. vulgatus play key roles in CRC liver metastasis, which might be related to KC reductions in the liver.

Effect and Involved Mechanism of RSL3-induced Ferroptosis in Acute Leukemia Cells MOLM13 and Drug-resistant Cell Lines / 中国实验血液学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effect and involved mechanism of RSL3 on ferroptosis action in acute leukemia cells MOLM13 and its drug-resistant cells.@*METHODS@#After MOLM13 treated with RSL3, CCK-8 assay was performed to detect cell viability, flow cytometry was used to detect the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of the cells, RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). After MOLM13/IDA and MOLM13/Ara-C, the drug-resistant cell lines were constructed, the ferroptosis induced by RSL3 was observed. Bone marrow samples were collected from patients with acute monocytic leukemia. RT-qPCR and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of related genes and proteins involved in ferroptosis pathway.@*RESULTS@#RSL3 significantly inhibited the cell viability of MOLM13 and increased the intracellular ROS level, which were partially reversed by ferrostatin-1. The mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 decreased in MOLM13 treated with RSL3. RSL3 inhibited the viability of MOLM13/IDA and MOLM13/Ara-C cells more strongly than that of non-drug resistant cells, also increased the intracellular ROS level . The cytotoxic effects were partially reversed by ferrostatin-1. The mRNA and protein expressions of GPX4 in MOLM13/IDA and MOLM13/Ara-C cells were higher than those in non-drug resistant cells. The mRNA and protein levels of GPX4 in bone marrow of relapsed/refractory acute mononuclear leukemia patients were higher than those of ordinary acute mononuclear leukemia patients.@*CONCLUSION@#RSL3 can induce non-drug resistant cells MOLM13 ferroptosis by inhibiting GPX4 activity. MOLM13/IDA and MOLM13/Ara-C are more sensitive to RSL3 compared with non-drug resistant cells MOLM13, which may be caused by the differences in GPX4 expression. The expressions of GPX4 mRNA and protein in relapsed/refractory acute mononuclear leukemia are higher than those in ordinary acute mononuclear leukemia.

Evaluation of SDF-1 complex with CGF applied to canine dental-pulp-like tissue regeneration / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of immature permanent teeth pulp regeneration with a new method that utilizes the integration of concentrated growth factor (CGF) as a scaffold and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1). Methods: Canine dental pulp cells (DPC) were isolated and cultured in vitro. Then the effects of SDF-1 and CGF were observed on DPC proliferation and differentiation. The pulpless model was established on the beagle’s immature incisors which were divided into four groups: natural pulp (A), empty cannel (B), CGF-filling (C) and SDF-1/CGF-filling (D). After 10 weeks, specimens were checked by imaging examination, RT-PCR and histological observation. Results: CGF extraction (CGFe) induced DPC proliferation while the combination of SDF-1 and CGFe enhanced this effect and also facilitated odontogenic and angiogenic differentiation of DPC. According to imaging examination, the apex growth of all four groups was in varying degrees. RT-PCR indicated the expressions of odontogenesis and angiogenesis related genes in group D were higher than those in group C. Besides, neonatal dentin and dental-pulp-like tissue were observed inside the canal of both group C and D, while only cementum-like tissue existed around root apex of group B. Conclusion:SDF-1 plays an important role in driving the process of pulp-like-tissue regeneration of immature permanent teeth by using CGF as an effective scaffold.

Application of Ultrasonic Elastography in Diagnosis of Chronic Nonspecific Low Back Pain / 中国康复理论与实践

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasonic elastography for diagnosis of chronic nonspecific low back pain. Methods From March to September, 2016, 32 patients diagnosed as chronic nonspecific low back pain and other 32 healthy people (controls) were measured lumbar erector spinae with ultrasonic elastography, and calculated Yang's modulus. The correlation between Yang's modulus and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) or Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score in the patients were investigated with Pearson's analysis. Re-sults There was no significant difference in Yang's modulus between bilateral lumbar erector spinae in both the patients and the controls (t0.05), but it was more in the patients than in the controls (t=9.931, P<0.001). The Yang's modulus was positively correlated with VAS score in the patients (r=0.614, P<0.001), but not with the JOA score (r=-0.243, P=0.180). Conclusion Ultrasonic elastography can be applied to differentiate low back pain from the healthy, and measure the intensity of pain.

Rapamycin protects cardiomyocytes against anoxia/reoxygenation injury by inducing autophagy through the PI3k/Akt pathway / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential cardioprotection roles of Rapamycin in anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) injury of cardiomyocytes through inducing autophagy, and the involvement of PI3k/Akt pathway. We employed simulated A/R of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVM) as an in vitro model of ischemial/reperfusion (I/R) injury to the heart. NRVM were pretreated with four different concentrations of Rapamycin (20, 50, 100, 150 μmol/L), and pretreated with 10 mmol/L 3-methyladenine (3MA) for inhibiting autophagy during A/R. Then, Western blot analysis was used to examine variation in the expression of LC3-II, LC3-I, Bim, caspase-3, p-PI3KI, PI3KI, p-Akt and Akt. In our model, Rapamycin had a preferential action on autophagy, increasing the expression of LC3-II/LC3-I, whereas decreasing the expression of Bim and caspase-3. Moreover, our results also demonstrated that Rapamycin inhibited the activation of p-PI3KI and enhanced the activation of p-Akt. It is concluded that Rapamycin has a cardioprotection effect by inducing autophagy in a concentration-dependent manner against apopotosis through PI3K/Akt signaling pathway during A/R in NRVM.
