Objective To preliminarily analyze the prediction efficiency of multimodal MRI?based radiomics model for preoperative glioma IDH1 gene expression type. Methods The MRI data of 108 surgery?proven glioma patients from May 2015 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, and the MRI data included axial T1WI,T2WI,fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR),DWI imaging and enhanced T1WI sequence.Forty-seven cases were IDH1 mutant type, and 61 cases were IDH1 wild type. All patients were divided into training and validation groups according to the 7∶3 ratio of the random forest model. Seventy-three cases were in training group, and 35 cases were in validation group. Independent predictors of IDH1 mutation were screened by univariate analysis combined with multivariate logistic regression analysis (P<0.05) in order to construct a random forest diagnosis model of general clinical information and conventional MRI morphological features.General clinical information and conventional MRI morphological features included gender, age, umbers of cases of left and right hemispheres, location of tumors, maximum diameter of tumors, peritumoral edema, intratumoral cystic degeneration, enhancement and ADC value of tumors. The ROI was manually outlined by MaZda software in the most obvious level of 5 sequences of tumor mass and the radiomics features were extracted, including the gray?level co?occurrence matrix(GLCM), the run?length matrix(RUN), the absolute gradient(GRA),the auto?regressive model(ARM) and wavelets transform (WAV). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)regression were used to select image radiomics features with a method of 10 fold cross?validation and to reduce the dimensions. The screened image radiomics labels were combined with the conventional morphological feature independent predictors to construct a multimodal MRI?based random forest model, and the validation data set was used to evaluate the accuracy and diagnostic efficiency of each model. The sensitivity and specificity of conventional MRI morphological feature model and multimodal MRI?based radiomics prediction model were evaluated dynamically by drawing ROC curves, and the prediction efficiency of the two models was quantified by using AUC statistical indicators. The model classification error rate under different outcomes and the classification error rate of out of bag(OOB)were used to evaluate the stability of the multimodal MRI?based random forest model. The contribution rate of each variable to the model was reflected by the characteristic variables importance assessment map. Results Univariate regression analysis of the conventional MRI morphological characteristics showed that peritumoral edema, cystic degeneration and enhancement were the three independent predictors of IDH1 gene expression (P<0.01). LASSO algorithm and 10?fold cross?validation identified six robust radiomic features including high frequency coefficients of wavelet transform (WavEnHH_s?4) of T2WI, S(4, 4) inverse difference of gray uniformity measurement (InvDfMom), S(5, 0) Entropy (entropy), WavEnHH_s?4 of T1WI enhancement, S(1, 1) InvDfMom, S(1, -1) Entropy Difference (DifEntrp)of Flair.The error rate of classification for different outcomes and classification error rate of random forest OOB data of multimodal MRI radiomics diagnosis model finally stabilized at 10%. The results of Characteristic Variable Importance Assessment Map: Mean Decrease Accuracy and Mean Decrease Gini index were consistent, which showed that besides three conventional MRI morphological predictors peritumoral edema, enhancement and cystic degeneration, the radiomics labels also played a key role in the model. The results of ROC curve showed that the accuracy, specificity,sensitivity and AUC of conventional MRI morphological feature model were 82.7%, 68.4%, 90.9% and 0.835, respectively, and those of multimodal MRI?based radiomics model were 88.5%, 89.5%, 87.8% and 0.956 respectively. Conclusion Multimodal MRI?based radiomics random forest model can improve the predictive efficiency of preoperative glioma IDH1 gene expression type more quantitatively.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Rad9 mutants with impaired DNA mismatch repair ( MMR) function on the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer. Methods The colorectal cancer tumor samples were collected from 100 patients. The mutation profiles of human Rad9 ( hRad9) gene in these samples were detected by reverse transcriptase?polymerase chain reaction ( RT?PCR) and sequencing. The plasmid of pFLAG?hRad9 ( L101M ) was constructed following the QuickChange mutagenesis procedure and transfected into mRad9?deleted mouse cells ( mRad9-/- cells) . The expression of hRad9 protein was measured by western blot analysis. The MMR activity in live cells was detected by flow cytometry using the reporter plasmid for MMR function. Results Mutation from Leu to Met at the residue 101 ( L101M) of hRad9 gene was detected in 7 of the 100 samples. The mismatch repair efficiency of mRad9-/-+L101M cells ( mRad9?deleted mouse cells with ectopic expression of L101M hRad9 gene) was (34.0± 5. 6)%, which was significantly lower than that in the mRad9-/-+ hRad9 cells [ mRad9?deleted mouse cells with ectopic expression of hRad9 gene, (48.0±7.5)%, P<0.05]. After N?nitroso?N?methylurea (MNU) treatment, the survival rate of mRad9-/-+L101M cells was (33.7±5.9)%, which was significantly higher than that in the mRad9-/-+ hRad9 cells [(21.3±4.7)%, P<0.05]. Thus, ectopic expression of L101M hRad9 gene resulted in significantly reduced MMR activity and increased resistance to MNU. Furthermore, ectopic expression of hRad9 gene with mutation at the target residues of post?translational modification in mRad9-/- cells also led to a reduced MMR activity. Conclusion Rad9 mutants with impaired DNA mismatch repair function may promote tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer.

In order to isolate Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae(Mhp)and select virulent strains with high growth titer from the isolates to acclimate at high temperature to obtain attenuated strains.Forty lung and trachea tissues were aseptically collected from pigs suspected of Mhp in several farms in Nanyang City.A total of 6 strains of Mhp were isolated through pathogen isolation,colony observation,PCR identification and sequencing.For each isolate,round colonies with neat edges,dewdrop like particles and ridges in the center were observed on solid medium.PCR could amplify the target gene bands of each isolated P36.After sequencing,the amplified products were compared with the gene sequences of ATCC 25934 reference strain(J strain)P36 registered in NCBI,and the homology was more than 99%.The growth titer of TH-1 strain measured by CCU experiment could reach 1011 CCU/mL,which showed a high growth titer.TH-1 strain was selected for continu-ous passage at high temperature(40 ℃)in vitro to obtain different passages(P50,P1 00,P1 50).TH-1 P150 still had a higher growth titer(1010 CCU/mL)at 40 ℃ growth temperature.TH-1 P1,P50,P100 and P150 were injected into the trachea to infect 25-day-old weaned piglets,and the re-sults of virulence evaluation showed that 4 pigs(4/5)in the P1 infection group had typical"meat or shrimp meat"lesions,and serious monocyte and lymphocyte infiltration were found in the lung HE pathological sections,and the cilia were clutter-tangled,shortened and exfoliated.P150 infec-tion group did not show typical Mhp characteristic lesions,lung HE and tracheal scan sections did not show microscopic pathological changes,indicating that TH-1 was a virulent strain,but its viru-lence was continuously decreased after continuous in vitro passage,and TH-1 P150 was a low-viru-lence strain.TH-1 P150 strain,as a attenuated vaccine strain,has good immunogenicity,and the av-erage reduction rate of pneumonia disease after immune challenge was 83.3%.In conclusion,a low-virulence strain with high growth titer(TH-1 P150)was obtained by continuous passage at high temperature in vitro for the first time,and its immunogenicity was good,which laid the foundation for further research and development of Mhp attenuated vaccine.

Objective:To evaluate the quantitative diagnostic value of controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) in health checkup groups with asymptomatic nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.Methods:A multicenter prospective study was conducted among Chinese individuals undergoing regular health checkups; a total of 173 subjects were investigated. Human body indexes such as height, weight, and blood pressure were measured, and complete blood count, liver function, blood lipid, FibroScan, and MRI-PDFF examinations were performed. Correlation between MRI-PDFF and CAP was described using Spearman′s and Pearson′s coefficients. Diagnostic efficacy of the CAP was evaluated using the subject work characteristic curve and the area under this curve, and the optimal cut-off value was determined according to the Youden index.Results:The average age and body mass index of the subjects were 45.0±10.5 years and 25.8±4.0 kg/m 2, respectively. A linear correlation was found between CAP and lg transformed magnetic resonance imaging-based proton density fat fraction results (Pearson′s coefficient 0.772, P<0.001). When optimized for ≥90% sensitivity, the CAP cutoff for staging ≥S1 steatosis was 244 dB/m. Conclusions:The CAP result was significantly correlated with the liver fat fraction measured by MRI-PDFF, and capable of differentiating steatosis grades. CAP can be used as a tool for screening fatty liver in health checkup groups.
