Toll-like receptor (TLR) is an important pattem recognition receptor (PRR) which partici pates in innate immunity and regulates adaptive immunity.TLR can be expressed in immune cells and malig nant tumors recognize conservative molecular structure,mediate response of inflammation,tissue injury and repair,which plays an important role in the process of tumor.Research results about some molecules and signal pathways of TLR demonstrate that it can act anti or pro-tumor dual functions,which has an extensive prospects in prevention and treatment of tumor.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the epidemic characteristics of etiologically positive pulmonary tuberculosis, and the outcome of treatment in Liaoning Province from 2016 to 2022, aiming to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of tuberculosis prevention and control measures in Liaoning Province. Methods　The medical records information of registered pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Liaoning Province from 2016 to 2022 was collected from the "Tuberculosis Information Management System", a subsystem of the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System". A descriptive analysis was performed on the epidemiological characteristics and treatment outcomes of cases of pathogen-positive pulmonary tuberculosis. Results　From 2016 to 2022, a total of 152 778 cases of active pulmonary tuberculosis were registered in Liaoning Province. Registration rates decreased from 54.48/100 000 in 2016 to 39.12/100 000 in 2022, displaying a downward trend (χ2trend=1 921.17, P<0.001). The etiological positive rate increased from 26.70% in 2016 to 51.21% in 2022, indicating an upward trend (χ2trend=5 203.00, P<0.001). The etiological positive registration rate increased from 14.54/100 000 in 2016 to 20.03/100 000 in 2022, showing an upward trend (χ2trend=647.97, P<0.001). The male-female ratio of etiological positive was 3.35∶1. The age group of 55-<65 had the highest incidence rate at 25.45% (16 127/63 376) among pathogen-positive pulmonary tuberculosis cases. Patients over 45 years of age accounted for 71.27% (41 570/63 376) of total cases, pointing towards an aging trend. The main occupations of the patients were household and unemployed, making up 41.78% (26 477/63 376) of total cases and showed an increasing year-on-year trend (χ2trend=17.404, P<0.001). Direct medical consultation was the primary mode of patient source at 50.28%(31 864/63 376), while 64.54%(40 904/63 376) cases reported a delay in seeking treatment. Seasonality was observed in the occurrence of pathogen-positive pulmonary tuberculosis, with February and September being the months of lowest incidence, while May and June witnessed peak incidences. The etiological positive patients were mainly in Shenyang, Dalian, Jinzhou and other regions. The proportion of successful treatment of etiologically positive decreased from 91.15% in 2016 to 85.88% in 2022, manifesting a downward trend (χ2trend=35.892, P<0.001). Conclusions　From 2016 to 2022, the incidence and registration rates of pathogen-positive pulmonary tuberculosis in Liaoning Province displayed an upward trend. Several characteristics were observed including seasonal variations, delayed treatment, regional distribution differences, and a decline in successful treatment rates. Targeted prevention and control measures should be formulated according to the actual situation in Liaoning Province.

Objective To investigate the expression of Dysadherin and analyze its role in renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC).Methods RT-PCR and immunohistochemical were used to detect the expression of Dysadherin in 60 cases of fresh RCCC and 60 adjacent normal renal tissues(male 35,female 25; age 37-78,median age 61; ＞7 cm 24,≤7 cm 36; Ⅰ/Ⅱ 39,Ⅲ/Ⅳ 21).Results Dysadherin mRNA expression in RCCC tissues (2.0043±0.2890) was higher than that in adjacent normal renal tissues (0.8461 ±0.2479) (t =6.8020,P ＜ 0.05).Dysadherin expression was associated with nuclear grade.The expression of Dysadherin in nucleus grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ tumors were significantly higher than that in nucleus grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ tumors [the mRNA expression were 4.6224±0.3194,2.7780±0.2288,the positive rates of protein were 64.1％ (25/39),95.2 ％ (20/21) (t =6.5750,x2 =5.495,P ＜ 0.05)].There was no association between the expression of Dysadherin with sex (t =1.0530,x2 =0.023),age(t =0.0511,x2 =0.089) and tumor size (t =1.0330,x2 =0.370) (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion In RCCC,Dysadherin expression is positively associated with tumor aggressiveness based on grading.It seems that Dysadherin may be a valuable prognostic marker in RCCC.

Objective To compare the differences of optic disc morphology and optic nerve head parameters between Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome and optic neuritis (ON) with optic disc edema. Methods This is a retrospective study including 21 first-onset VKH patients (35 eyes) as VKH group and 22 first-onset ON patients with optic disc edema (27 eyes) as ON group. The differences of age (t=-1.11) and gender (χ2=0.20) between two groups were not significant (P>0.05). Sixty-two eyes of 43 age and gender-matched healthy subjects were enrolled in this study as control group. All subjects underwent three dimensional optical coherence tomography (3D-OCT) examinations. The difference of optic disc morphology between two groups was observed. The parameters included average thickness of entire circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (CP-RNFL), thickness of nasal, superior, temporal and inferior quadrant of CP-RNFL, disc area, disc cup area, rim area, cup/disc (C/D) area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio. The disc retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) angle was observed too. Results Among 35 eyes in VKH group, 31 eyes (88.57%) had retinal detachment next to the disc, 3 eyes (8.57%) had serrated inner limiting membranes of the disc. Twenty eyes (64.52%) had highly reflective points, lines, or membrane-like structures in the retinal detachment areas. No such signs appeared in ON patients. Compared with ON group, the optic cup area, C/D area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio were bigger, the thickness of mean CP-RNFL and the superior, inferior quadrants of CP-RNFL were thinner, disc RPE angles was smaller in VKH group (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the disc area, optic cup area, rim area were bigger, C/D vertical diameter ratio was smaller, the mean CP-RNFL and 4 quadrants CP-RNFL were thicker, disc RPE angles was smaller in VKH group (P<0.05); the disc area, optic cup area, C/D area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio were smaller, the mean CP-RNFL and 4 quadrants CP-RNFL were thicker, disc RPE angles was bigger in VKH group (P<0.05). Conclusions VKH patients have smaller disc RPE angles and more chance to develop retinal detachment next to disc than ON patients. The C/D area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio are bigger, the mean CP-RNFL and the superior, inferior quadrants of CP-RNFL are thinner in VKH eyes.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression levels of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) tissue and the adjacent normal epithelial tissue. METHOD: Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Western-blot were used to detect the expression of TLR2 mRNA and protein levels in the tumors and adjacent normal epithelial tissues in 22 patients with LSCC, while vocal cord polyps were used as control. RESULT: RT-PCR demonstrated that TLR2 mRNA expressed obviously in both of tumor and adjacent tissue, but rarely in control. The expression levels of TLR2 mRNA in tumor is higher than that in adjacent normal epithelial tissue (t=4.279, P<0.01). It's expression intensity was closely related to LSCC clinical stage (F=5.496, P<0.05)and lymph node metastasis status (N stage of tumor) (F = 4.271, P<0.05). The protein levels of TLR2 were consistent with mRNA expression. CONCLUSION Both mRNA and protein levels of TLR2 were obviously elevated in LSCC, which were associated closely with tumor clinical stage and lymph node metastasis. It is indicated that TLR2 may play an important role by multiple mechanism in laryngeal carcinoma process.

Objective:To explore the correlation of c-MET and CXCR4 proteins and microvessel density (MVD) with liver metastasis in colorectal cancer tissues.Methods:A total of 40 colorectal cancer tissue samples and 10 paracancerous (5 cm from the edge of the tumor) normal colorectal tissue samples were collected from March 2015 to December 2020 in Shanxi Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital. Among 40 patients with colorectal cancer, 15 patients had liver metastasis. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect c-MET protein, CXCR4 protein and CD34-labeled MVD in various tissues, and the relationships between them and liver metastasis and between the three were analyzed.Results:The positive rates of c-MET protein [72.5% (29/40) vs. 30.0% (3/10)], CXCR4 protein [47.5% (19/40) vs. 10.0% (1/10)] and MVD (20.1±5.2 vs. 11.5±4.3) in colorectal cancer tissues were higher than those in paracancerous tissues, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The positive rates of c-MET protein [86.7% (13/15) vs. 64.0% (16/25)] and CXCR4 protein [66.7% (10/15) vs. 36.0% (9/25)] in colorectal cancer liver metastasis group were significantly higher than those in non-liver metastasis group, and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.05). MVD in colorectal cancer liver metastasis group was significantly higher than that in non-liver metastasis group (21.5±5.3 vs. 12.4±5.7), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). In colorectal cancer tissues, c-MET protein expression was positively correlated with CXCR4 protein expression ( r = 0.568, P < 0.05), and MVD in c-MET-positive patients or CXCR4-positive patients was higher than that in negative ones (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:The c-MET protein, CXCR4 protein and MVD may play important roles in the liver metastasis of colorectal cancer. The three indicators can provide a certain reference for the early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of liver metastasis of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the expression levels of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and mutant P53 proteins in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and their clinical significances.Methods:The data of 68 cases of colorectal adenocarcinoma confirmed by pathology in Shanxi Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital from March 2015 to October 2021 were collected. The expressions of SIRT1, HIF-1α and mutant P53 proteins in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and paracancerous tissues were determined by immunohistochemistry. The correlation among SIRT1, HIF-1α and mutant P53 proteins and their relationship with clinicopathological features of patients were analyzed.Results:Among 68 colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and paracancerous tissues, SIRT1 protein was positive in 38 cases (55.88%) and 11 cases (16.18%) ( χ2 = 23.25, P < 0.001), HIF-1α protein was positive in 47 cases (69.12%) and 5 cases (7.35%) ( χ2 =54.92, P < 0.001), and mutant P53 protein was positive in 41 cases (60.29%) and 0 cases (0) ( P < 0.001). The positive expression rate of SIRT1 protein was high in patients with high clinical stage and lymph node metastasis (both P < 0.05); the positive expression rate of HIF-1α protein was high in patients with poor differentiation ( P < 0.05); the positive expression rate of mutant P53 protein was high in patients with poor differentiation and lymph node metastasis (both P < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between expressions of SIRT1 and mutant P53 proteins ( rs = -0.38, P = 0.001); there was a positive correlation between expressions of HIF-1α and mutant P53 proteins ( rs = 0.56, P < 0.001); there was a negative correlation between expressions of SIRT1 and HIF-1α proteins ( rs = -0.40, P = 0.001). Conclusions:SIRT1, HIF-1α and mutant P53 proteins are highly expressed in colorectal adenocarcinoma and are correlated with clinicopathological features suggesting poor prognosis. Combined detection of the three proteins may be used for the diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma and serve as a new target for treatment.
