ABSTRACT

Based on bone metastasis potential of mouse breast cancer 4T1 cells, the bone disseminated breast tumor cells 4T1 (B-4T1) were acquired through the screening of 6-mercaptopurine. The characteristics of B-4T1 were studied by morphological observation, proliferation assay, expression of epithelial and mesenchymal cell markers detection, transcriptome sequencing, and tumor formation experiments. The results showed that B-4T1 was round and spindle-shaped than primary 4T1 cells, and its proliferation rate was reduced, as well as epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and E-cadherin expression. The transcript level of N-cadherin was increased in the B-4T1, but not vimentin, indicating that B-4T1 had partial epithelial mesenchymal transition. Besides, B-4T1 had higher fatty acid metabolism and better tumor formation capacity. This study lays the experimental foundation for the basic study of metastasis in breast cancer. All animal experiments in this paper were conducted in accordance with the standards of the Animal Ethics Committee of China Pharmaceutical University.

ABSTRACT

Identifying risk factors of the disease are one of the main tasks of epidemiology. With the advancement of omics technologies (e.g., genome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, and exposome), cancer etiology research has entered the stage of systems epidemiology. Genomic research identifies cancer susceptibility loci and uncovers their biological mechanisms. Exposomic research investigates the impact of environmental factors on biological processes and disease risks. The metabolome is downstream of biological regulatory networks, reflecting the effects of the gene, environment, and their interactions, which can help elucidate the biological mechanisms of genetic and environmental risk factors and identify new biomarkers. Here, we reviewed the applications of genomic, exposomic, and metabolomic studies in the etiologic research on cancer. We summarized the importance of multi-omics approaches and systems epidemiology in cancer etiology research and outlined future perspectives.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the gene mutation profile in children with acute lymphocyte leukemia (ALL) and to explore its prognostic significance.@*METHODS@#Clinical data of 249 primary pediatric ALL patients diagnosed and treated in the Department of Hematological Oncology of Wuhan Children's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to obtain gene mutation data and analyze the correlation between it and the prognosis of children with ALL.@*RESULTS@#227 (91.2%) were B-ALL, 22 (8.8%) were T-ALL among the 249 cases, and 178 (71.5%) were found to have gene mutations, of which 85 (34.1%) had ≥3 gene mutations. NRAS(23.7%), KRAS (22.9%),FLT3(11.2%), PTPN11(8.8%), CREBBP (7.2%), NOTCH1(6.4%) were the most frequently mutated genes, the mutations of KRAS, FLT3, PTPN11, CREBBP were mainly found in B-ALL, the mutations of NOTCH1 and FBXW7 were mainly found in T-ALL. The gene mutation incidence of T-ALL was significantly higher than that of B-ALL (χ2= 5.573,P<0.05) and were more likely to have co-mutations (P<0.05). The predicted 4-year EFS rate (47.9% vs 88.5%, P<0.001) and OS rate (53.8% vs 94.1%, P<0.001) in children with tp53 mutations were significantly lower than those of patients without tp53 mutations. Patients with NOTCH1 mutations had higher initial white blood cell count (128.64×109/L vs 8.23×109/L,P<0.001), and children with NOTCH1 mutations had a lower 4-year EFS rate than those of without mutations (71.5% vs 87.2%, P=0.037).@*CONCLUSION@#Genetic mutations are prevalent in childhood ALL and mutations in tp53 and NOTCH1 are strong predictors of adverse outcomes in childhood ALL, with NGS contributing to the discovery of genetic mutations and timely adjustment of treatment regimens.

ABSTRACT

The biofilms formed by pathogenic microorganisms seriously threaten human health and significantly enhance drug resistance, which urgently call for developing drugs specifically targeting on biofilms. Chitooligosaccharides extracted from shrimp and crab shells are natural alkaline oligosaccharides with excellent antibacterial effects. Nevertheless, their inhibition efficacy on biofilms still needs to be improved. Spirulina (SP) is a microalga with negatively charged surface, and its spiral structure facilitates colonization in the depth of the biofilm. Therefore, the complex of Spirulina and chitooligosaccharides may play a synergistic role in killing pathogens in the depth of biofilm. This research first screened chitooligosaccharides with significant bactericidal effects. Subsequently, Spirulina@Chitooligosaccharides (SP@COS complex was prepared by combining chitooligosaccharides with Spirulina through electrostatic adsorption. The binding of the complex was characterized by zeta potential, z-average size, and fluorescence labeling. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) showed the encapsulation efficiency and the drug loading efficiency reached up to 90% and 16%, respectively. The prepared SP@COS2 exhibited a profound synergistic inhibition effect on bacterial and fungal biofilms, which was mainly achieved by destroying the cell structure of the biofilm. These results demonstrate the potential of Spirulina-chitooligosaccharides complex as a biofilm inhibitor and provide a new idea for addressing the harm of pathogenic microorganisms.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical features and outcomes of infants (<1 year old) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (IALL).@*METHODS@#The clinical manifestations, laboratory examination results, treatment and prognosis of 18 infants diagnosed with ALL at our department between January 1, 2014 and August 31, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Among the 18 cases of IALL, there were 10 males and 8 females. The median age of patients was 6.5 months old (3 months-11 months old). The median white blood cell count (WBC) was 33.63×109/L [(3.92-470)×109/L] at initial diagnosis, including 2 patients with WBC≥300×109/L. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping showed a B-lineage infant ALL in all the 18 patients. Eight of the 18 children had abnormal chromosome karyotype analysis. Fusion gene detection showed 12 KMT2A-rearrangement of 18 patients. 15 patients underwent leukemia related mutation gene screening, among which KRAS, NRAS and FLT3 were the most common mutation genes. 4 patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and two survived. 14 patients received chemotherapy only and ten survived. The 3-year OS rate was (65.5±11.5)%, while the EFS rate was (46.9±12.3)%.@*CONCLUSION@#B-cell ALL and KMT2A rearrangement are prevalent in IALL. The therapeutic effect of IALL with standard childhood ALL protocal is similer to international infant specific protocal.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability and accessibility of recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein (EC), and to provide evidence for selecting skin detection methods for tuberculosis infection diagnosis and auxiliary diagnosis of tuberculosis. METHODS The effectiveness and safety of EC compared with purified protein derivative of tuberculin (TB-PPD) were analyzed by the method of systematic review. Cost minimization analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis and cost-utility analysis were used to evaluate the short-term economy of EC compared with TB-PPD, and cost-utility analysis was used to evaluate the long-term economy. The evaluation dimensions of innovation, suitability and accessibility were determined by systematic review and improved Delphi expert consultation, and the comprehensive score of EC and TB-PPD in each dimension were calculated by the weight of each indicator. RESULTS The scores of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation and suitability of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. The affordability scores of the two drugs were consistent, while the availability score of EC was lower than those of TB-PPD. After considering dimensions and index weight, the scores of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability, accessibility and the comprehensive score of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. CONCLUSIONS Compared with TB-PPD, EC performs better in all dimensions of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability and accessibility. However, it is worth noting that EC should further improve its availability in the dimension of accessibility.

ABSTRACT

Cognitive impairment, particularly deficits in executive function (EF) is common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and may lead to dementia. There are currently no effective treatments for cognitive impairment. Work from our lab and others has shown that physical exercise may improve motor performance in PD but its role in cognitive function remains poorly eludicated. In this study in a rodent model of PD, we sought to examine whether exercise improves cognitive processing and flexibility, important features of EF. Rats received 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the bilateral striatum (caudate-putamen, CPu), specifically the dorsomedial CPu, a brain region central to EF. Rats were exercised on motorized running wheels or horizontal treadmills for 6-12 weeks. EF-related behaviors including attention and processing, as well as flexibility (inhibition) were evaluated using either an operant 3-choice serial reaction time task (3-CSRT) with rule reversal (3-CSRT-R), or a T-maze task with reversal. Changes in striatal transcript expression of dopamine receptors (Drd1-4) and synaptic proteins (Synaptophysin, PSD-95) were separately examined following 4 weeks of exercise in a subset of rats. Exercise/Lesion rats showed a modest, yet significant improvement in processing-related response accuracy in the 3-CSRT-R and T-maze, as well as a significant improvement in cognitive flexibility as assessed by inhibitory aptitude in the 3-CSRT-R. By four weeks, exercise also elicited increased expression of Drd1, Drd3, Drd4, synaptophysin, and PSD-95 in the dorsomedial and dorsolateral CPu. Our results underscore the observation that exercise, in addition to improving motor function may benefit cognitive performance, specifically EF, and that early changes (by 4 weeks) in CPu dopamine modulation and synaptic connectivity may underlie these benefits.

ABSTRACT

Pyroptosis, characterized by activation of the Nod-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and its downstream effector inflammatory factors, has been shown to play a crucial role in atherosclerosis development. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the progression of pyroptosis. However, the role and mechanism of the novel lncRNA gastric adenocarcinoma associated, positive CD44 regulator (Gaplinc), in endothelial cell pyroptosis during atherosclerosis development remain unexplored. Bioinformatics was performed to evaluate dysregulated lncRNAs in atherosclerotic mice fed a high-fat diet. The effect of Gaplinc on atherosclerosis progression in vivo was assessed via Oil Red O staining and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Its function in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced pyroptosis of endothelial cells was determined through ectopic expression. Additionally, RNA pull-down and immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays were performed to determine Gaplinc and transcription factor SP1 interactions. Then the pyroptosis pathway proteins were analyzed via immunofluorescence and western blotting. We found that lncRNA Gaplinc was highly expressed in ox-LDL-induced endothelial cells as well as in the plaque and plasma of high-fat diet-treated ApoE-/- mice. Gaplinc silencing significantly inhibited endothelial cell pyroptosis and atherosclerotic plaque formation. Mechanistically, Gaplinc could interact with SP1 to bind to the NLRP3 promoter and upregulate the target gene expression of NLRP3, facilitating endothelial cell pyroptosis and atherosclerotic plaque enlargement in high- fat diet-fed mice. In conclusion, our results revealed the underlying mechanism of the lncRNA Gaplinc /SP1/NLRP3 axis in endothelial cell pyroptosis, which may provide new potential targets for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

ABSTRACT

Mitochondrial oxidative injury can result in many cardiovascular diseases including cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study was designed to investigate whether microRNA-34a (miR-34a) influences cardiac I/R or hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury by regulating the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway from oxidative injury.In vivo, myocardial infarction size was examined by Evan blue/TTC staining. Apoptosis was assessed by TUNEL assay. Heart function was measured by echocardiography. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK) were evaluated. In vitro, H9c2 cardiomyocytes were exposed to H/R stimulation. Cell viability was assessed by the CCK-8 assay and apoptosis was detected by Annexin V/PI staining. Mitochondrial superoxide, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and ATP production was evaluated by detection kits, and related proteins were detected by western blotting analysis. We observed that the level of miR-34a was significantly upregulated in I/R rats compared to the sham group. Injection of adenovirus inhibiting miR-34a into the left ventricular anterior wall improved heart function and decreased I/R injury. H9c2 cardiomyocytes exposed to H/R stimulation displayed an obvious increase in miR-34a expression. In addition, miR-34a inhibitor alleviated, whereas miR-34a mimic aggravated H/R-induced mitochondrial injury. Bcl-2 was identified as a target gene of miR-34a by dual-luciferase reporter gene detection. Knockdown of Bcl-2 abolished the cardioprotection of the miR-34a inhibitor in H9c2 cells. In summary,our study demonstrates that inhibition of miR-34a exhibits therapeutic potential in treatment of myocardial I/R injury by restraining mitochondrial apoptosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the dosimetry and efficacy of intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) and intracavitary/interstitial brachytherapy (IC+ ISBT) based on CT image guidance in the treatment of stage Ⅲ B cervical cancer. Methods:Clinical data of 93 patients with stage Ⅲ B cervical cancer treated in Department of Radiotherapy of Jilin Cancer Hospital from June 2014 to February 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the results of Gynecological examination and pelvic MRI before brachytherapy, confirming the size of residual tumor and the degree of parauterine infiltration, all patients were divided into the ICBT and IC+ ISBT groups. The D 90%, D 100%, V 100% and D 2cm 3 of bladder and rectum were compared, and the short-term and long-term efficacy was observed between two groups. Results:The median follow-up time was 60 months. The 5-year local control rate, distant metastasis-free survival rate and overall survival rate of all patients were 83%, 71% and 68%, respectively. Compared with the ICBT group, HR-CTV D 90% in the IC+ ISBT group was all more than 85 Gy, while there was no significant difference between two groups ( P=0.188). The D 2cm 3 of bladder and rectum in the IC+ ISBT group was significantly decreased by 7 Gy and 8 Gy (both P<0.01), and the distant metastasis-free survival rate was significantly improved ( P=0.009). The 5-year local control rate in the HR-CTV volume>60 cm 3 in the IC+ ISBT group was significantly higher than that in the IC group ( P=0.029). Conclusion:For patients with Ⅲ B cervical cancer, IC+ ISBT can not only ensure target coverage, but also significantly reduce the incidence of distant metastasis and the dose of organs at risk, and significantly improve the local control rate of large tumors.

There were statistically significant differences among the three groups ( H=13.92, 8.65, 9.17, 10.02, F=8.18, 6.33, 10.73, 4.62, P =0.001,0.013,0.010,0.007, <0.001,0.002, <0.001,0.010). Logistic regression analysis showed that alcohol consumption, P3b peak latency and wave amplitude PZ lead, N1 wave amplitude of visual P3a group FZ lead were the influencing factors of MMSE ( OR=0.04, 1.01, 0.76, 1.51, 95% Cl were 0.00-0.30, 1.00-1.03, 0.59-0.97, 1.08-2.10, P=0.002,0.007,0.029,0.016). Conclusion:The peak latency and amplitude of endogenous psychological cognitive potentials N2, P3b and P3a of event-related potentials P3b and P3a in patients with lacunar cerebral infarction were prolonged and decreased. At the same time, with the occurrence of clinical cognitive impairment, the peak latency and amplitude of these cognitive potentials were further prolonged and decreased more significantly. Alcohol consumption, P3b peak latency and PZ lead of visual P3b wave group, and FZ lead of N1 wave of visual P3a wave group were the influencing factors of simple intelligent mental state.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To establish and evaluate a fluorescent antibody to membrane antigen (FAMA) method for detecting antibodies against varicella-zoster virus (VZV) based on Vero E6 cells. 【Methods】 Based on the adapted VZV-Oka-E6 strain that VZV-Oka live attenuated varicella vaccine strain grew in Vero E6 cells, Vero E6 cells were infected with VZV-Oka-E6 of three different doses (104.65, 104.95 and 105.25 TCID50), and the cytopathic effect was observed under a microscope to determine the optimal infection dose of VZV-Oka-E6 strain. Then the detectable sensitivity of the infected cell antigen slides prepared after fixing the infected cells with different fixatives was compared to determine the optimal fixative. As a result, the FAMA method based on Vero E6 cells for the determination of neutralizing anti-VZV has been developed. The established FAMA assay was used to detect the international standard for varicella zoster immunoglobulin with different titers to determine the sensitivity of the assay. The specificity of the assay was evaluated by detecting specific antibodies against human herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and type 2. The neutralizing anti-VZV antibodies of the international standard for varicella zoster immunoglobulin were detected using VZV-infected cell antigen slides prepared in the same batch and four different batches, respectively, to determine the intra-assay repeatability and inter-assay repeatability. The international standard for varicella zoster immunoglobulin with three known titers was detected to evaluate the relative accuracy of this assay. The anti-VZV titers in 20 apheresis plasma samples were determined with the newly established FAMA test and ELISA test, respectively, and the detection results of the two methods were compared using Spearman’s correlation test. 【Results】 The optimal infection dose of the VZV-Oka-E6 strain in FAMA assay was determined to be 105.25 TCID50, and acetone precooled at -20℃ was used as the fixative. The FAMA test has a high sensitivity with a detecting limit of 31.25 mIU/mL for neutralizing anti-VZV titers. The negative result was observed when detecting herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and 2 specific antibodies. The international standard for varicella zoster immunoglobulin was detected by VZV infected cell antigen slides prepared in the same batch and 4 different batches, with the coefficient of variation being 29.95% and 26.71%, respectively. The detection value of the international standard for varicella zoster immunoglobulin with three different titer levels was consistent with their theoretical value. The correlation coefficient of the detection results of 20 apheresis plasma samples by the FAMA test and ELISA test was 0.268. 【Conclusion】 The VZV FAMA assay has good sensitivity, specificity, repeatability, and relative accuracy in detecting neutralizing anti-VZV titers. It can be applied for detecting neutralizing anti-VZV titers in apheresis plasma samples as well as the varicella-zoster immunoglobulin (VZIG) preparations.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To construct a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) assessment test (CAT) score prediction model based on a deep network fused with air data, and to explore its significance.Methods:From February 2015 to December 2017, the outdoor environmental monitoring air data near the residential area of the patients with COPD from the Respiratory Outpatient Clinics of Peking University Third Hospital, Peking University People′s Hospital and Beijing Jishuitan Hospital were collected and the daily air pollution exposure of patients was calculated. The daily CAT scores were recorded continuously. The CAT score of the patients in the next week was predicted by fusing the time series algorithm and neural network to establish a model, and the prediction accuracy of the model was compared with that of the long short-term memory model (LSTM), the LSTM-attention model and the autoregressive integrated moving average model (ARIMA).Results:A total of 47 patients with COPD were enrolled and followed up for an average of 381.60 days. The LSTM-convolutional neural networks (CNN)-autoregression (AR) model was constructed by using the collected air data and CAT score, and the root mean square error of the model was 0.85, and the mean absolute error was 0.71. Compared with LSTM, LSTM-attention and ARIMA, the average prediction accuracy was improved by 21.69%.Conclusion:Based on the air data in the environment of COPD patients, the fusion deep network model can predict the CAT score of COPD patients more accurately.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effect of Mahuang-Dahuang(MD)on inhibiting M1 polarization of alveolar macrophages, alleviating inflammatory injury and treating acute lung injury, and the underlying mechanism.Methods Abandoned rats were divided into normal control group(NC), model control group(MC), MD high-dose group(MD-H), medium-dose group(MD-M), low-dose group(MD-L), and DXMS group.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)was injected intraperitoneally to prepare an acute lung injury(ALI)rat model.After the model was established, different doses of MD were administered by intragastric administration, and the pathological changes of lung tissues were observed; immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of alveolar macrophage marker F4/80,F4/80 and CD80, CD80 and IL-6 Co-expression; Flow cytometry was used to detect the content of F4/80 and CD80 in lung tissues; PCR was used to detect the relative expression of IL-6, INOS, TNF-α mRNA in lung tissues; Western blot was used to detect lung tissue CCR2, CCL2, p-p65, P65, p-p38MAPK, p38MAPK protein expression.Results Compared with NC group, rats in MC group had damaged alveolar structure, thickened pulmonary interstitial edema, and infiltrated a large number of inflammatory cells.Among them, the number of macrophages increased significantly, which promoted the increase in the expression of macrophages-related chemokines CCR2 and CCL2.The number and expression of M1 alveolar macrophages in lung tissues increased, the relative expression of M1 alveolar macrophages-related cytokines IL-6, INOS and TNF-α mRNA was up-regulated, and the target protein in the related pathways of alveolar macrophages M1 polarization p-NF-κBp65/NF-κBp65, p-P38MAPK/p38MAPK protein expression was up-regulated.Compared with MC group, the pathological status of lung tissues in MD high, medium, and low dose groups was significantly improved, the number of lung tissue M1 alveolar macrophages decreased, the relative expression of inflammatory factors IL-6, INOS and TNF-α mRNA was down-regulated, and the protein expression of CCR2, CCL2, p-NF-κBp65/ NF-κBp65 and p-P38MAPK/p38MAPK was reduced in lung tissues.Conclusions MD can inhibit the M1 polarization of alveolar macrophages, reduce the activation and release of inflammatory factors, inhibit inflammatory response, and prevent acute lung injury by regulating the expression of related indicators of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways.
