In recent years, immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) as the representative drug has become an important treatment method for advanced malignant tumors. Preclinical studies have found that disorders of the gut microbiota can reduce the clinical benefit of patients treated with ICI. The latest data indicate that antibiotics may further affect the occurrence and development of tumors and the efficacy of immunotherapy by changing the abundance and composition of intestinal microbiota. To sum up the role of anti-biotics in the immunotherapy of advanced malignant tumor may provide a new idea for the optimization of treatment strategies for patients with advanced cancer.

BACKGROUND: RT-Q medical biomembrane, the novel copolymer synthesized from lactic acid and hyaluronic acid, not only possesses the advantages of hyaluronic acid, such as multiple biological functions, excellent flexibility and biocompatibility, but also has the merits of polylactic acid fragments to be easily processed and transformed to membrane when encountering water. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hemostatic effect of RT-Q medical biomembrane in rat external jugular vein hemorrhage model, and to evaluate its histocompatibility by locally applying it to rat muscle. DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal trial.SETTING: Department of Pharmacology, Department of Pharmacognosy, West China School of Pharmacy, Sichuan University.MATERIALS: 130 male Wistar rats aged 6 weeks, weighing 170-210 g, were selected. Eighty rats were used for evaluation of hemostatic effect, and the other fifty were used in biocompatibility experiment. Animal intervention met the animal ethical standard. RT-Q aerosol composed of DL-lactic acid and hyaluronic acid, α-cyanoacrylate, acetone (solvent), freon (propellant) and excipient aerosol composed of acetone and freon (propellant) (Batch number 20050311) were provided by Department of Pharmaceutics, West China School of Pharmacy, Sichuan University.α-cyanoacrylate medical adhesive(SUNCON medical adhesive) (Batch number 20050930) was produced by Beijing Suncon Medical Adhesive Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. METHODS: Haemostatic effect: Eighty male rats were randomly divided into four groups, served as RT-Q, SUNCON (positive control), excipient group and non-treatment group (negative control), twenty in each group. After anesthesia was induced, external jugular vein of rats was exposed, and an approximately 0.6 cm incision was made to create hemorrhage. The bleeding areas were blotted by antiseptic gauze. After removing the gauze, the bleeding surfaces were immediately treated with RT-Q aerosol in the RT-Q group, excipient aerosol in the excipient group, 0.15 mL SUNCON medical adhesive in the SUNCON group, or no agent in non-treatment group, respectively. Then, injury surfaces were covered by gauze. In the non-treatment group, bleeding was left to naturally stop. Bleeding time and blood loss (gauze weight after hemostasia - that before hemostasia) were determined. Local histocompatibility: Rats were divided into A and B groups. Incision was made in rat post-leg muscle after anesthesia was induced. Left bleeding surfaces were treated with excipient aerosol, and right bleeding surfaces were treated with RT-Q aerosol in group A (n=30). The same incision as the group A was made, but no intervention was performed in the group B (n=20). Tissues were possessed and HE-stained for pathological observation under light microscope at days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, 23, 30 after the surgery. Effect of biomembrane on wound healing, degradation and toxicity to tissues surrounding injuries were observed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Bleeding time and blood loss in hemostatic experiment; wound healing, biodegradation and toxicity to tissues surrounding injuries in local histocompatibility experiment. RESULTS: 130 rats were involved in the result analysis. Histopathologic examination showed RT-Q membrane had no effect of promoting or delaying wound healing. Membrane formed by RT-Q aerosol began to degrade on the 15th day, absorbed completely during 3-4 weeks, and had no toxicity to surrounding tissues. Bleeding time and blood loss were reduced in the RT-Q group than in the non-treatment group and the excipient group (P < 0.01). There was no significant difference between the RT-Q group and the SUNCON group (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: RT-Q medical biomembrane as α-cyanoacrylate medical adhesive has significant hemostatic effects on topical bleeding, and possesses good histocompatibility.

Objective:To investigate the changes of advanced glycosylation end product(AGEs)/sodium-glucose cotransporter-1(SGLT-1) in intestinal and renal tissues and intestinal flora of mice with diabetes kidney disease.Methods:Twenty KKay mice were divided into diabetic group(DM group, n=10) and diabetic kidney disease group(DKD group, n=10). The concentrations of serum AGEs, lipopolysaccharide(LPS), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), and intereukin-6(IL-6) were measured. Western blot technique was used to detect the protein expression of AGEs and SGLT-1 in kidney and intestinal tissue, and high-throughput sequencing was used to analyze the difference of intestinal flora. Results:The levels of inflammatory markers TNF-α, IL-6, and serum endotoxin in DKD group were significantly higher than those in DM group( P<0.05). The contents of AGEs in serum and intestine and kidney were increased, and the contents of SGLT-1 in intestine and kidney were increased( P<0.05). Metastats test showed that the abundance of Verrucomicrobia decreased and the abundance of Proteobacteria increased in DKD group( P<0.05). G - bacteria such as Aeromonas, Enterobacter, Morgan, Klebsiella, Serratia, and Burkholderia were relatively dominant, and the abundance of Akkermansia was significantly lower than that in DM group( P<0.05). Conclusion:The increase of AGEs in intestinal tract of DKD mice may induce intestinal dysbacteriosis, especially the increase of Proteobacteria, the decrease of Verrucosa and Wilhelm Ackermann, and the leakage of G-bacteria into the blood to produce intestinal endotoxemia and cause inflammatory reaction, this may be an important factor in the development of DKD. SGLT-1 is elevated in intestinal tissue, which may be involved in the development of DKD.
