Objective To analyze the role and mechanism of PD-L1 in oral cancer metastasis based on TCGA and GEO databases.Methods The expression characteristics and clinical significance of the PD-L1 in oral cancer were analyzed using the TCGA database.PD-L1 mRNA levels were detected by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)in various oral cancer cell lines.CCK-8,scrath test,Transwell-migration,and matrigel-invasion assays were employed to assess the effects of PD-L1 on proliferation,migration,and invasion of oral cancer cells.The interaction network between PD-L1 and functional genes in patients with oral cancer was constructed using STRING software and the GEO database,and key pathways were screened by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis.The regulatory relationship between PD-L1 and key genes was validated by RT-qPCR.Results TCGA data revealed that PD-L1 was highly expressed in patients with oral cancer and was correlated with lymph node metastasis(P＜0.01).PD-L1 was also highly expressed in oral cancer cell lines and its inhibition significantly inhibited the proliferation,migration,and invasion of Cal27 and SCC25 cells(P＜0.05).KEGG analysis indicated that PD-L1 activated the Janus kinase(JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription(STAT)pathway by upregulating C-X-C motif chemokine ligand(CXCL)9 and CXCL10,thereby promoting STAT1 expression to regulate oral cancer metastasis.Inhibition of the JAK/STAT pathway further suppressed the proliferation,migration,invasion,and expression of STAT1,CXCL9,and CXCL10 in Cal27 and SCC25 cells(P＜0.05).Conclusions PD-L1 may promote oral cancer cell proliferation,migration,and invasion by upregulating CXCL9 and CXCL10 to regulate the JAK/STAT pathway and enhance STAT1 expression,ultimately driving oral cancer growth and metastasis.

Objective To observe brain function changes in insomnia disorder(ID)patients and therapeutic effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)based on resting-state functional MRI(rs-fMRI).Methods Totally 37 patients with ID(ID group)and 20 healthy subjects(control group)were prospectively enrolled.The scores of sleep condition and psychological state scales were compared between groups,also within ID group before and after rTMS treatment.Brain regions with amplitude of low frequency fluctuations(ALFF)and regional homogeneity(ReHo)being significantly different between groups were evaluated based on brain rs-fMRI,and voxel-based resting-state functional connectivity(FC)analysis was performed in the above regions and the predefined regions of interest.Results Before treatment,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),insomnia severity index(ISI),Epworth sleepiness score(ESS),Beck depression inventory(BDI)score and Beck anxiety inventory(BAI)score in ID group were all higher than those in control group(all P＜0.05).ALFF values and ReHo of the right median cingulate and paracingulate gyrus(Cingulum_Mid_R)were lower in ID group than those in control group(all FWE correctedP＜0.05).FC between Cingulum_Mid_R and the left anterior cingulate gyrus and cingulate gyrus(Cingulum_Ant_L)decreased,so did that between the left hippocampus(Hippocampus_L)and the right frontal gyrus(Frontal_Mid_R)(all FWE corrected P＜0.05).After rTMS,PSQI,ISI and ESS scores of ID patients decreased compared to those before treatment(all P＜0.05),but no significant change of the above neuroimaging indicators was detected(all FWE corrected P＞0.05).Conclusion ID caused synchronous decrease of Cingulum_Mid_R ALFF value and ReHo,as well as weakened FC between frontal cingulate gyrus and frontal with lobe limbic system.rTMS could improve sleep and mental state of ID patients,but its impact on neuroimaging needed further investigation.

Objective:To explore the metabolic basis and related molecular mechanism of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)path-ogenesis.Methods:20 Chinese hamsters were divided into 2 groups(n=10).OSCC models were induced by dimethylbenzanthracene(DMBA)in 10 of the animals and the other 10 were used as the controls.LC-MS chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to iden-tify the metabolites in the buccal pouch,and multidimensional statistical analysis of the metabolites was performed with the orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis model.Variable Importance for the Projection(VIP)＞1 and P＜0.05 were used as the criteria to screen the differential metabolites between the 2 groups.KEGG pathway annotation and enrichment analysis for the metabolites were performed to screen the significantly differential pathways.Results:The hamster cheek pouches painted with 0.5％DMBA for 18 weeks were diffused with leukoplakia and loaded obvious papillary protrusions,which were diagnosed as OSCC by pathological examination.Lipids and lipid-like molecules were the main differential metabolites.Reprogramming of unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis,cholesterol accumulation,enhanced catabolism of tryptophan,up-regulation of aspartate,increased synthesis of pyrimidine and purine,etc.were important metabolic features in the occurrence and development of OSCC.Conclusion:Molecular intervention targeting the related met-abolic pathways is expected to inhibit OSCC pathogenesis and progression.

Efferocytosis refers to the process that phagocytes recognize and remove the apoptotic cells, which is essential for maintaining tissue homeostasis both in physiological and pathological conditions. Numerous studies have demonstrated that efferocytosis can prevent secondary necrosis and proinflammatory factor release, leading to the resolution of inflammation and tissue immunological tolerance in numerous diseases such as stroke. Stroke is a leading cause of death and morbidity for adults worldwide. Persistent inflammation triggered by the dead cells or cell debris is a major contributor to post-stroke brain damage. Effective efferocytosis might be an efficient strategy to minimize inflammation and restore brain homeostasis for neuronal regeneration and function recovery. In this review, we will discuss the phagocytes in the brain, the molecular mechanisms underlying efferocytosis, the role of efferocytosis in inflammation resolution, and the potential therapeutic applications targeting efferocytosis in stroke.
