In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been widely used in malignant solid tumors with remarkable efficacy. However, in colorectal cancer (CRC), ICIs have shown significant therapeutic effects only in patients with highly microsatellite unstable/mismatch repair-deficient metastatic CRC and these patients are only a minority of all CRC patients. In contrast, the majority of patients, those with microsatellite stable (MSS)/mismatch repair-complete (pMMR)-type metastatic CRC, could hardly benefit from ICI monotherapies, and immune combination therapies have become the key to solveing this clinical challenge. This article introduces the common patterns and possible mechanisms of immune-combination therapies for MSS/pMMR-type CRC, the exploration and progress made in the application of immune-combination therapies, as well as the possible predictive markers of efficacy of immune therapies. The prospects and directions of ICIs in the treatment of MSS/pMMR-type CRC are also discussed.

The shortage of medical resources promotes medical treatment reform, and smart healthcare is a promising strategy to solve this problem. With the development of Internet, real-time health status is expected to be monitored at home by using flexible healthcare systems, which puts forward new demands on flexible substrates for sensors. Currently, the flexible substrates are mainly traditional petroleum-based polymers, which are not renewable. As a natural polymer, cellulose, owing to its wide range of sources, convenient processing, biodegradability and so on, is an ideal alternative. In this review, the application progress of nanocellulose in flexible sensors is summarized. The structure and the modification methods of cellulose and nanocellulose are introduced at first, and then the application of nanocellulose flexible sensors in real-time medical monitoring is summarized. Finally, the advantages and future challenges of nanocellulose in the field of flexible sensors are discussed.

[摘 要] 目的：采用基于中国人群单核苷酸多态性位点开发的同源重组缺陷（HRD）检测工具评估云南地区卵巢癌患者的HRD状态和BRCA1/2基因突变频率并探讨其临床意义。方法：共纳入2021年1月至2023年5月间在云南省肿瘤医院收治的卵巢癌患者248例，HRD状态采用基因组瘢痕评分法（GSS）（主要依据拷贝数的长度、类型、位置及基因组断片）或HRD评分法（杂合性缺失、端粒等位基因失衡及大片段移位等基因组不稳定事件的总和）进行评估，当组织样本的GSS≥50分或HRD评分≥42分者或检测到有害的BRCA1/2基因突变时HRD被定义为阳性。分析患者HRD状态与临床病理特征的关系。结果：248名卵巢癌患者中70.97%的患者HRD呈阳性，其中BRCA1/2基因突变率为30.65%。Ⅲ~Ⅵ期、高级别浆液腺癌的卵巢癌患者具有更高的HRD阳性率（均P<0.01），HRD评分更高的患者其合并其他基因突变的频率也越高（P<0.05）。HRD状态与卵巢癌的病理类型、临床分期和其他基因突变均有关联（均P<0.01）。结论：云南地区卵巢癌患者HRD阳性率较高，HRD阳性的卵巢癌患者可以从聚ADP核糖聚合酶（PARP）抑制剂治疗中获得更大的收益。
