RESUMO
Abstract Background Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) develops from epithelial keratinocytes by dysregulation of self-renewal and differentiation. Recent studies have found that the size and number of cSCC tumors gradually decrease or even disappear after HPV vaccination. However, the role of the HPV vaccine in the cSCC mechanism is poorly understood. Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the effect and mechanism of the HPV vaccine in cSCC. Methods Immunofluorescence was used to study the immune infiltrating cells in the tumor tissues of patients with cSCC. The effects of the HPV vaccine on cSCC cells and tissues were studied by Cell Culture, Real-time PCR, Western Blot, Cytotoxicity Assay, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay, m6A Blotting, CCK-8 Assay, m6A Ribonucleic acid Methylation Quantification and tumor transplantation. Results The HPV vaccine enhanced the toxic effect of CD8+T cells on cSCC cells and promoted the secretion of multiple cytokines by CD8+T cells. In addition, HPV vaccines can increase tumor sensitivity to anti-PD-1 therapy by downregulating METTL3 in tumor tissue, with the combination of HPV vaccine and PD-1 monoclonal antibodies producing enhanced immune cell infiltration compared to PD-1 blockade alone. Study limitations It is important to note the limitations of this study, including the small sample size, the construction of the mouse model, and the choice of HPV vaccine and PD-1 monoclonal antibody, which may limit the generalization of our findings to a wider population. Conclusions It is hoped that this research will contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of the HPV vaccine in the treatment of cSCC. HPV vaccine is expected to become an important approach to alleviate the development of cSCC.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the prevalence of flat feet and associated factors in school aged children in Kunming City, to provide evidence supporting the prevention of flat feet.@*Methods@#From December 2021 to February 2022, 4 444 children aged 7-13 in five primary schools in Kunming were screened for flat feet with the optical foot assessment and recording device. The incidence of flatfoot was counted, and Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of flatoccurrence.@*Results@#The overall prevalence rate was 29.10%, of which 21.79% were mild, 52.43% were moderate, 25.78% were severe, 89.10 % were bipedal, and 10.90% were monopedal. The prevalence rates in the 7-year old and 13-year old groups were 36.91% and 10.43%, respectively, and the risk in the former was 5.00 times that in the latter( OR=5.00, 95%CI =3.22-7.52). The prevalence rates in rural and urban students were 38.53%, 22.46%, respectively, and the risk in the former was 2.17 times that in the latter( OR=2.17, 95%CI =1.90-2.47). The prevalence of flat feet in male and female students were 34.21%, 23.29%, respectively, and the risk in male students was 1.71 times higher than that in female students( OR=1.71, 95%CI =1.50-1.95). The incidence of flat feet correlated with BMI, and the risk of flat feet was higher in the group with overweight and obese groups than normal( OR=1.31, 1.10, P < 0.01). @*Conclusion@#The prevalence of flat feet in school age children aged 7-13 years decreased with age. The prevalence and risk of flat feet is lower in girls than boys, and the incidence and risk of flat feet are lower in urban than rural children. The incidence of flat feet in most children is moderate, and the risk increased with increasing BMI. For school aged children with flat feet, early prevention, detection and treatment are needed.
RESUMO
Objective@# To investigate the effects of different glucose concentration on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSC) in vivo@*Methods@#Cultured with basal medium containing different glucose concentrations, CCK-8 cell proliferation was detected at 1, 4, 7, 10 days. The osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was observed at 7 d, which was induced by osteogenic differentiation medium with different concentration of glucose. The expressions of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OC) and collagen type I (Col-1) gene were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Mineralized nodule formation was displayed by calciumalizarin red staining on the seventh day.@*Results @#10 mM glucose stimulated proliferation of hBMSC, while the higher (>30 mM) inhibited the proliferation (P < 0.05); Osteogenic induction can induce osteogenic differentiation of hBMSC, but the increase of glucose concentration will decrease the formation of mineralized nodules of hBMSC, inhibit the expression of osteogenic marker genes ALP, OC and Col-1 (P < 0.05).@*Conclusion@#The expression of Col-1, ALP and OC in osteoblast was down-regulated by high glucose, and the hBMSC proliferation was inhibited. At the same time, high glucose can reduce the osteogenic mineralization ability of stem cells and indirectly affect bone formation and metabolism.
