Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and is closely associated with a wide range of biological processes, such as aging, immunity, and cancer. Tumor multidrug resistance, especially resistance to apoptosis, has prompted the urgent search for a new antitumor treatment option. Remarkable progress has been made in the study of the role of ferroptosis in antitumor, especially the interaction with immune cells. Studying immunotherapy based on ferroptosis pathways has become a new direction in antitumor research. In this work, we review the role of ferroptosis in immune cells and antitumor immunotherapy to provide new ideas for ferroptosis-mediated antitumor immunotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the self-defect sensation and its influencing factors in patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains.Methods:A total of 183 patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains in our hospital were selected and investigated by online questionnaire. The data of the respondents were collected by means of online filling in the questionnaire star using the General Data Survey Scale and the Defect Perception Scale (FIS) at admission.Results:The total score of self-defect in 183 patients with bright red nevus treated by photodynamic therapy was higher than that of the domestic norm. Age ( t=4.19), place of residence ( F=14.90), co-resident ( F=3.21), education level ( F=4.39), marital status ( F=2.47), income level ( F=9.51) and occupation ( F=5.82) had significantly related with the level of self-deficiency of patients ( P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that residence and income level were the main factors affecting patients′ sense of self-deficiency ( F=4.96, P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall self-defect sense of 183 patients with port wine stains treated with photodynamic therapy in this survey is more serious, their own comprehensive conditions and family structure will affect the self-defect sense of patients with port wine stains. We should pay special attention to the mental health of patients from municipal cities and low-income levels, timely carry out clinical nursing education and psychological guidance, jointly improve the compliance and cooperation of patients with treatment, and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

【Objective】 To investigate the relationship between hepatitis B virus X （HBx） protein and EGFR promoter， and the role of HBx protein in activating EGFR/PI3K/p-Akt signaling pathway and inhibiting apoptosis. 【Methods】 EGFR promoter plasmids were constructed and the relationship between HBx and EGFR promoters was characterized using a luciferase reporter assay. EGFR-overexpressing trophoblast cells were constructed， and EGFR expression in the overexpressing cells was knocked down using EGFR shRNA. The expression and localization of EGFR/PI3K/p-Akt were detected by Western blotting and confocal laser microscopy. Cell apoptosis was analyzed using flow cytometry. HBV plasmids carrying either full-length HBx or HBx with a deletion mutation （ΔHBx） and HBx plasmids were transfected into two types of trophoblast cells； HBx and PI3K/p-Akt protein expressions were detected by Western blotting. Cell apoptosis was analyzed using flow cytometry. 【Results】 Co-transfection of HBx and EGFR promoter plasmids in JEG-3 and HTR-8/Svneo cells significantly elevated the expression of EGFR promoter driven luciferase compared with the control group （P<0.01）. In EGFR-overexpressing cells， the expression of PI3K/p-Akt was significantly increased （P<0.01）， whereas the apoptosis rate was significantly decreased for JEG-3 cells and HTR-8/Svneo cells （both P<0.01）. These results were reversed in the EGFR-knock down group. When the intracellular HBx protein was expressed in JEG-3 and HTR-8 cells， PI3K/p-Akt protein expression was significantly increased （both P<0.05）， and the proportion of apoptosis was significantly decreased （both P<0.05）. 【Conclusion】 In placental trophoblast cells， HBx protein activates the expression of EGFR by acting on the EGFR promoter， and inhibits the apoptosis of trophoblast cells via the downstream EGFR/PI3K/p-Akt signaling pathway.

Objective:To study the classification of persistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) and the value of echocardiography in the diagnosis of PFAA.Methods:A total of 16 cases (male 6, female 10, at ages from 7 days to 4 years and 2 months old, the median age was 3 months) diagnosed with PFAA in Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2013 to June 2019 were studied retrospectively. The diagnosis standard, differential methods and misdiagnosed analysis of different subtypes of PFAA by echocardiography were summarized and analyzed.Results:The 16 cases included 1 case of type A1 double lumen aortic arch, 8 cases of type A2 single-lumen aortic arch, 3 cases of type B1 with pulmonary atresia and 4 cases of type B3 pulmonary artery branch arising from the distal end of ascending aorta. Only one patient of double lumen aortic arch missed diagnosis by echocardiography, and the rest were accurately diagnosed by echocardiography. CTA was performed in 13 cases, including 9 cases of type A, 1 case of type B1 and 3 cases of type B3, which confirmed the echocardiography diagnosis. Seven cases of Type A2 were operated.Conclusions:PFAA is a rare and complicated aortic arch malformation, which is divided into four major classification and multiple subtypes. Echocardiography can diagnose the PFAA and its classification, it is of great clinical significance for the early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of children.

Dysregulation of mTORC1/mTORC2 pathway is observed in many cancers and mTORC1 inhibitors have been used clinically in many tumor types; however, the mechanism of mTORC2 in tumorigenesis is still obscure. Here, we mainly explored the potential role of mTORC2 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and its effects on the sensitivity of cells to mTOR inhibitors. We demonstrated that RICTOR, the key factor of mTORC2, and p-AKT (Ser473) were excessively activated in ESCC and their overexpression is related to lymph node metastasis and the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) phase of ESCC patients. Furthermore, we found that mTORC1/ mTORC2 inhibitor PP242 exhibited more efficacious anti-proliferative effect on ESCC cells than mTORC1 inhibitor RAD001 due to RAD001-triggered feedback activation of AKT signal. Another, we demonstrated that down-regulating expression of RICTOR in ECa109 and EC9706 cells inhibited proliferation and migration as well as induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Noteworthy, knocking-down stably RICTOR significantly suppresses RAD001-induced feedback activation of AKT/PRAS40 signaling, and enhances inhibition efficacy of PP242 on the phosphorylation of AKT and PRAS40, thus potentiates the antitumor effect of RAD001 and PP242 both and . Our findings highlight that selective targeting mTORC2 could be a promising therapeutic strategy for future treatment of ESCC.

Objective To summarize the echocardiographic findings and clinical characteristics of Kawasaki disease(KD) complicated with coronary artery thrombosis (CAT).Methods Thirty-five patients with KD combined with CAT were enrolled,who were admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital,Capital Medical University between July 2005 and August 2016.The clinical characteristics and echocardiographic findings during follow-ups were retrospectively studied.According to whether the childrenhad been complicated with myocardial ischemia,the patients were divided into 2 groups:ischemic group and non-ischemic group.The duration of fever,the time when the intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG) was first injected,the time when coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) was formed,the maximum diameter of CAA and inflammatory index inthe acute phase were compared between 2 groups.Results All of the 35 children diagnosed as KD combined with CAT suffered firom CAA,and the coronary thrombosis was detected in all the cases with aneurysms.Thirty-five patients had 99 branches of CAA,of which the maximum diameter of CAA was (9.6 ± 3.1) mm(4.0-19.0 mm).Fifty-four plots of CAT were detected in the aneurysms.The diameter of CAA that thrombosis located was larger than that of which the thrombosis was not located[(10.9 ± 2.8) mm vs.(7.9 ± 2.6) mm],and the difference was significant(P ＜0.01).During 4 months to 10 years and 8 months [(39.2 ±29.5) months] follow-ups,CAA regressed in 32 branches [32.3％ (32/99 branches)],of which 4 branches [4.0％ (4/99 branches)] completely regressed to the normal diameter.The maximum diameter of CAA regressed was smaller than the maximum diameter of CAA consistence [(7.3 ± 1.9) mm vs.(10.6 ± 3.0) mm],and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.01).Out of 35 patients,15 cases [42.9％ (15/35 cases) had myocardial ischemia,while the other 20 cases[57.2％ (20/35 cases)] didn't have.Among 15 cases with myocardial ischemia,6 cases[17.1％ (6/35 cases)] had myocardial infarction,4 cases [11.4％ (4/35 cases)] had heart failure,and 1 case[2.9％ (1/35 cases)] died of acute heart failure complicated with severe ventricular arrhythmia.Compared with non-ischemic group,the children in the ischemic group had longer duration of fever[(19.1 ± 7.8) d vs.(12.1 ± 3.3) d],higher white blood cell account in the acute phase[(24.8 ± 13.5) × 1012/L vs.(19.7 ±4.0) × 1012/L],later treatment of IVIG [(13.9 ± 5.5) d vs.(9.8 ±3.8) d],and earlier CAA formation [(16.0 ±4.9) d vs.(20.9 ± 14.5) d],and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions CAT of children with KD commonly originates from CAA.Patients who have more serious inflammatory reaction in the acute phase,earlier formation,heavy severity and longer consistence of CAA are prone to have myocardial ischemia.Echocardiographic study plays an important role in monitoring CAA,detecting the CAT and finding the early left ventricle dysfunction,which is of clinical significance.
