This study employed the drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) technique to investigate the molecular mechanism of the antipsychotic drug penfluridol against melanoma, revealing the biological pathway to exert its effect on the HSPA6/p53/p21 signaling axis. Experiments such as the methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and cell colony formation ability assay confirmed that penfluridol could significantly downregulate the expression of cyclin D1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) in melanoma A375 and B16 cells, induce cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase, and thus inhibit the proliferation of melanoma cells. Meanwhile, the results of Western blot, Hoechst 33342 staining and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining experiments showed that penfluridol could significantly downregulate the expression of Bcl-2 and upregulate the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, inducing cell apoptosis. Further, the DARTS technique was used to identify heat shock 70 kD protein 6 (HSPA6) as the key target bound by penfluridol. Penfluridol activates the p53/p21 pathway by upregulating HSPA6. Knocking down HSPA6 reverses not only the activation of the p53/p21 pathway mediated by penfluridol but also the associated cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Animal experiments on tumor-bearing mice also confirmed that knocking down HSPA6 could reverse the in vivo anti-tumor activity of penfluridol. This study clarified that penfluridol can inhibit the progression of melanoma by targeting HSPA6 to activate the p53/p21 signaling axis, providing a new perspective for the repositioning of antipsychotic drugs in cancer treatment.

Objective:To explore the application value of part-cut jejunal transection in digestive tract reconstruction of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 112 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2018 to September 2022 were collected. There were 81 males and 31 females, aged (70±8)years. Among the 112 patients, 60 patients undergoing diges-tive tract reconstruction by Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum were set as the part-cut group, and 52 patients undergoing digestive tract reconstruction by traditional Roux-en-Y anasto-mosis were set as the traditional group. Observation indicators: (1) propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraopera-tive and postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Comparison of measurement data with normal dis-tribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Com-parison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametic rank sum test. Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with the caliper value of 0.02. Results:(1) Propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 112 patients, 90 patients were successfully matched, with 45 cases in each of the part-cut group and the traditional group. After propensity score matching, the elimination of body mass index, clinical TNM staging confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. After propensity score matching, the total operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the part-cut group were (217.0±15.1)minutes and (34.7±1.8)minutes, versus (252.6±21.9)minutes and (52.6±7.4)minutes in the traditional group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=?8.97, ?15.66, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. After propensity score matching, 90 patients were followed up postoperatively for (47±15)months. During the follow-up, no patient in either group received secondary surgery, and there was no death. There were 3 cases and 10 cases of Roux stasis syndrome in the part-cut group and the traditional group, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.41, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis, the Roux-en-Y anastomosis with part-cut jejunum in totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy can signifi-cantly shorten the time for digestive tract reconstruction and reduce the incidence of postoperative Roux stasis syndrome.

Purpose To compare the similarity between the short-axis left ventricular cavity fractional area change measured by cardiac magnetic resonance and myocardial circumferential strain.Materials and Methods Forty cases of cardiomyopathy with different phenotypes and high-quality cardiac magnetic resonance images in PACS data center of the Sixth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital were retrospectively selected.All patients underwent cine imaging on a 3.0T MRI scanner.The endocardial and epicardial areas of each short-axis left ventricular slice were measured using Medviso Segment software to calculate slice-level fractional area change and global fractional area change.Slice circumferential strain and global circumferential strain were measured using Circle CVI42 software.Linear regression analysis was performed to assess correlations between global circumferential strain and global fractional area change,as well as slice circumferential strain and slice-level fractional area change.Results Both global circumferential strain and global fractional area change,as well as slice circumferential strain and slice-level fractional area change,exhibited positive correlations(all r>0.95).Linear regression demonstrated significant relationships(regression coefficients:2.40-3.16,P<0.05),with coefficient magnitudes related to left ventricular cavity radius.After normalization,circumferential strain and fractional area change curves showed identical standard deviations.Conclusion Short-axis left ventricular cavity fractional area change and myocardial circumferential strain display significant positive correlations at both slice and global levels,with similar curve morphology.These findings suggest that circumferential strain and fractional area change possess comparable statistical value in assessing cardiac function.

Objective To investigate the effects of human milk on serum bilirubin levels and gut microbiota in neonatal rats with hyperbilirubinemia.Methods A total of 24 7-day-old specific-pathogen-free Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with bilirubin or normal saline,respectively,and human milk or formula milk was administered 24 hours later for intervention.The rats were divided randomly into four groups:human milk-normal saline group(HN),human milk-bilirubin group(HB),formula milk-normal saline group(FN),and formula milk-bilirubin group(FB).Samples were taken 72 hours later,and serum bilirubin values were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The intestinal microbiota were analyzed using 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing.Results There was no significant difference in bilirubin values among the groups.Pseudomonas was negatively correlated with indirect bilirubin value(P＜0.05).The composition of the intestinal microbiota differed significantly between human milk and formula milk after gastric administration,with Firmicutes(P＜0.01),Enterococci(P＜0.05),being the main microbiota in the HN and HB groups,and Proteobacteria(P＜0.001),Escherichia Shigella(P＜0.01)and Acinetobacter(P＜0.01)being the main in the FN and FB groups.Conclusions Pseudomonas may be negatively associated with bilirubin,and the structure of the intestinal microbiota may differ in relation to human milk and formula feeding.

Objective To invegtigate the possible etiology,clinical characteristics,and treatment effects of post tympanoplasty full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear.Methods A retrospective analy-sis was conducted on the possible causes,clinical manifestations,and diagnosis and treatment of 6 cases of full-fre-quency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty.Results The use of diluted epineph-rine during surgery,controlled hypotension during the operation,ethylene oxide in gelatin sponges,and the exces-sive pro-inflammatory factors produced postoperatively may be associated with the occurrence of full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty.Among the six patients,the main initial symptom was dizziness without vertigo or nystagmus.Two cases were ineffectively treated,one case was effectively treated,and three cases were cured.Among the four cases that received timely medication,three were effectively treated.Conclusion Full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty is related to various factors,and the clinical manifestations of patients are atypical,often manifesting as dizziness.Timely diagnosis through pure tone audiometry and timely treatment according to the sudden deafness treatment plan often leads to fa-vorable outcomes.
