RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Higher suicide rates were observed in patients diagnosed with lymphoma. In this study, we accurately identified patients with high-risk lymphoma for suicide by constructing a nomogram with a view to effective interventions and reducing the risk of suicide. METHODS: 235,806 patients diagnosed with lymphoma between 2000 and 2020 were picked from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and randomly divided into training (N = 165,064) and validation set (N = 70,742). A combination of the Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and Cox proportional hazards regression identified the predictors that constructed the nomogram. To assess the discrimination, calibration, clinical applicability, and generalization of this nomogram, we implemented receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC), calibration curves, decision curve analysis (DCA), and internal validation. The robustness of the results was assessed by the competing risks regression model. RESULTS: Age at diagnosis, gender, ethnicity, marital status, stage, surgery, radiotherapy, and annual household income were key predictors of suicide in lymphoma patients. A nomogram was created to visualize the risk of suicide after a lymphoma diagnosis. The c-index for the training set was 0.773, and the validation set was 0.777. The calibration curve for the nomogram fitted well with the diagonal and the clinical decision curve indicated its clinical benefit. LIMITATION: The effects of unmeasured and unnoticed biases and confounders were difficult to eliminate due to retrospective studies. CONCLUSION: A convenient and reliable model has been constructed that will help to individualize and accurately quantify the risk of suicide in patients diagnosed with lymphoma.

RESUMO

Microplastic (MP) residues in marine have become an increasingly serious environmental pollution issue, and in recent years the detection of MPs in marine started to attract worldwide research interests. Optical-fiber-based environmental sensors have been extensively employed for their several merits such as high sensitivity, pressure resistance, compactness and ease of constructing communication networks. However, fiber-optic refractive index sensors are not specifically developed for distinguishing MPs from other inorganic particles suspended in water. In this paper, an metal-organic framework (MOF) ZIF-8 functionalized S-tapered fiber (STF) sensor is proposed for specific detection of polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs) in aqueous environment. ZIF-8 coordination nanoporous polymers with different film thickness were immobilized over the surface of the fabricated STF structure based on self-growth technique and yielding a large surface area over the sensor surface. High sensitivity detection can be achieved by converting the concentration perturbation of PSNPs into evanescent waves over the ZIF-8 functionalized STF surface through the strong electrostatic adsorption effect and π-π stacking, while the fabricated sensor is insensitive to gravels with silica as the primary component in water. It is found that the proposed detector with 18 film layers achieves a sensitivity up to 114.1353nm/%(w/v) for the PSNPs concentration range of 0.01 %(w/v) to 0.08 %(w/v).

RESUMO

Tumor drug resistance caused by the tumor microenvironment is an extremely difficult problem for researchers to solve. Nanoplatforms that integrate diagnosis and treatment have great advantages in tumor treatment, but the design and synthesis of simple and efficient nanoplatforms still face tremendous challenges. In this study, a novel Mn/Au@ir820/GA-CD133 nanoprobe was developed. The manganese dioxide/gold particles were prepared by coprecipitation/assembly, chemically coupled with CD133 antibody, and finally loaded with the photosensitive drug IR820 and the heat shock protein inhibitor Ganetespib. The nanoprobe demonstrated good tumor-targeting ability, increased the level of singlet oxygen produced from laser irradiation by effectively alleviating tumor hypoxia, and decreased the threshold of heat tolerance by downregulating the expression of HSP90 in tumor tissues. This nanoprobe successfully inhibited the growth and progression of tumor tissues in a tumor-bearing mouse model by improving the effectiveness of photodynamic and low-temperature photothermal combination therapy.

RESUMO

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a highly prevalent cancer with high mortality. Immune resistance and tumor metastasis are the pivotal factors for the promotion of LUAD. CircRNAs have been revealed a crucial pre-clinical diagnostic and therapeutic potentials in LUAD. Herein, we identify a novel circRNA (circ_0004140), derived from the oncogene YAP1, which is up-regulated in LUAD. The high expression of circ_0004140 is correlated with poor prognosis and CTL cells dysfunction in LUAD patients. Knockdown of circ_0004140 regulated LUAD cells proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. Mechanistically, circ_0004140 served as a sponge of miR-1184 targeting C-C motif chemokine ligand 22(CCL22). Overexpression of CCL22 reversed the inhibitory effect induced by si-circ_0004140 on cells proliferation and migration. Moreover, we also revealed that elevated circ_ooo4140 was related to cytotoxic lymphocyte exhaustion, and a combination therapy of C-021 (CCL22/CCR4 axis inhibitor) and anti-PD-1 attenuated LUAD promotion and immune resistance. In conclusion, circ_0004140 may drive resistance to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy, providing a novel potential therapeutic target for LUAD treatment.

RESUMO

Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely used over-the-counter drug for antipyretic and analgesic, but an overdose will induce acute liver injury. APAP hepatotoxicity has been the most common cause of acute liver failure in western countries with high morbidity and mortality. Geniposide (GP), an iridoid glycoside extracted from the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides, has been reported to exert a profound anti-inflammatory activity on acute and chronic diseases. However, it is never demonstrated whether GP can protect hepatocytes from APAP hepatotoxicity. In this study, we investigated the protective effect and underlying mechanism of GP against AILI. The results showed that GP pretreatment reduced the levels of ALT and AST in a dose-dependent manner and alleviated hepatocyte necrosis and apoptosis in mice exposed at APAP. Moreover, it suppressed the expression of CYP 2E1 and attenuated the exhaustion of GSH and accumulation of MDA in the liver. Furthermore, GP remarkably inhibited inflammatory cells infiltration and mitigated the release of IL-1ß and TNF-α, and inhibited Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression and nuclear factor kappa (NF-κB) activation. These data suggested that GP could effectively protect hepatocytes from APAP hepatotoxicity through the down-regulation of CYP 2E1 expression and the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

RESUMO

Objective: Paeonol is a natural phenolic component isolated from the root bark of peony with multiple pharmacological activities. We investigated the anti-fibrotic effect and underlying mechanism of paeonol. Methods: Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice were divided into 4 groups (n = 6 in each group), injected with CCl4 to induce liver fibrosis and administrated with paeonol according to the regimen. The serum activity of ALT and AST, and H&E staining were to assess liver injury. Sirius and Masson staining, and hydroxyproline content were to evaluate the degree of liver fibrosis. TNF-α, IL-6, TGF-ß, MDA, GSH-PX, SOD, and CAT were detected to reflect inflammation and oxidative stress. RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis to assess the activation of HSCs and TGF-ß/Smad3 signaling. Results: Paeonol ameliorated liver injury and liver fibrosis, reflected by the decrease of ALT, AST, less lesion in H&E staining, mitigated fibrosis in Sirius and Masson staining, lessened content of hydroxyproline. Paeonol attenuated the level of IL-6 and TNF-α, and elevated the activity of GSH-PX, SOD, and CAT with reducing the level of MDA. The expression of col 1a, α-SMA, vimentin, and desmin were down-regulated and TGF-ß/Smad3 signaling pathway was inhibited. Conclusion: These data demonstrated that paeonol could alleviate CCl4-induced liver fibrosis through suppression of hepatic stellate cells activation via inhibiting the TGF-ß/Smad3 signaling.
