[摘 要] 目的:以MG-63球形细胞作为骨肉瘤干细胞(OSC)富集模型,探讨靶向细胞膜表面HSP90β的单抗2G1对其生物学特征的影响及其与Wnt信号相关蛋白变化的关系。方法:采用无血清悬浮培养人骨肉瘤MG-63细胞获得MG-63球形细胞。通过免疫荧光共定位和免疫共沉淀实验鉴定单克隆抗体2G1识别的靶抗原;采用流式细胞术检测MG-63亲本细胞和MG-63球形细胞膜表面HSP90β的表达水平;通过甲基纤维素成球实验、Transwell迁移和侵袭实验评价单抗2G1对MG-63球形细胞成球、迁移和侵袭能力的影响;采用裸鼠皮下移植瘤模型观察单抗2G1对MG-63球形细胞体内成瘤能力的影响;进一步结合转录组测序、京都基因与基因组百科全书(KEGG)通路富集分析及WB检测,分析单抗2G1处理后相关分子通路及干细胞特性、上皮-间充质转化(EMT)、Wnt/β-catenin信号通路相关蛋白表达变化。结果:免疫荧光共定位和免疫共沉淀结果显示,单抗2G1识别的靶抗原为HSP90β。流式细胞术结果显示,MG-63球形细胞膜表面HSP90β阳性表达细胞比例为(20.77 ± 1.29)%,显著高于MG-63亲本细胞的(2.87 ± 0.33)%(P < 0.001)。与对照组相比,单抗2G1处理后MG-63球形细胞成球数由82.67 ± 4.70降至42.67 ± 4.00,迁移细胞数由117.00 ± 5.57降至78.33 ± 5.03,侵袭细胞数由130.70 ± 5.03降至89.33 ± 5.03(均P < 0.001)。裸鼠移植瘤实验显示,单抗2G1组移植瘤生长受到抑制,瘤质量抑制率和瘤体积抑制率分别为(31.83 ± 16.36)%和(22.00 ± 15.48)%。转录组测序共筛选出698个差异表达基因,其中329个基因上调,369个基因下调;KEGG富集分析显示差异表达基因涉及Wnt信号通路。WB法检测结果显示,与对照组相比,单抗2G1组SOX2、OCT4、N-cadherin、p-β-catenin和c-Myc表达下调,E-cadherin表达上调(均P < 0.001)。结论:细胞膜表面HSP90β在MG-63球形细胞中高表达,靶向HSP90β的单抗2G1可抑制MG-63球形细胞的成球、迁移、侵袭及体内成瘤能力,并影响其干细胞标志物、EMT相关标志物及Wnt/β-catenin信号通路蛋白的表达水平,提示HSP90β可能参与调控MG-63球形细胞的OSC样特征,可作为骨肉瘤靶向治疗的潜在研究靶点。

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of porcine large intestine-processed Dahuang Pill (肠制大黄丸) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated by chronic constipation. MethodsA total of 80 patients with T2DM complicated by chronic constipation were enrolled and randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 40 cases in each group. All patients received routine basic treatment. The control group was treated with oral lactulose solution 10 ml once daily, while the treatment group was administered with oral porcine large intestine-processed Dahuang Pill 3 g once daily. The treatment course was 4 weeks for both groups. The primary outcome was the score of the Wexner Constipation Scale score. The secondary outcomes included fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2 hPG), glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life (PAC-QOL) score, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome score, and clinical effective rate before and after treatment. TCM syndrome efficacy was evaluated in both groups after treatment, and safety was assessed simultaneously. ResultsSeventy-five subjects completed the study, including 37 in the treatment group and 38 in the control group. After treatment, the Wexner Constipation Scale score, FBG, 2 hPG, HbA1c, PAC-QOL score and TCM syndrome score all significantly decreased in both groups (P<0.01). In intergroup comparison, the treatment group showed significantly superior improvements in the Wexner Constipation Scale score, FBG, HbA1c, PAC-QOL score and TCM syndrome score relative to the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). No significant difference in 2 hPG was observed between groups (P>0.05). The total clinical effective rate of TCM syndrome efficacy was 91.89%(34/37)in the treatment group, which was higher than 63.16%(24/38) in the control group. No adverse events occurred in either group, and all safety indicators were within the normal range. ConclusionPorcine large intestine-processed Dahuang Pill can effectively relieve clinical symptoms, synergistically improve glucose metabolism and quality of life in patients with T2DM complicated by chronic constipation, which possesses good clinical safety.

In recent decades,the incidence of human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)has shown a marked increase.Significant changes have also occurred in the OPSCC diagnosis and treatment paradigm.Deter-mining HPV status prior to treatment is now essential,and radiotherapy/chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and minimally invasive surgical techniques have progressively emerged as key modalities for managing OPSCC.However,alongside these paradigm shifts,a comprehen-sive technical consensus guiding the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process for OPSCC patients is currently lacking.Given China's large population base and the rising incidence of OPSCC,an expert panel convened to develop a clinical technical consensus on OPSCC diagno-sis and management tailored to China's specific context.This consensus aims to further enhance and standardize understanding of OPSCC management techniques among relevant healthcare professionals.

Objective To explore the impact of suture configuration and fixation type on the biome-chanical strength of rotator cuff repair,using a factorial design study.Methods Sixteen fresh-frozen porcine shoulder samples were randomized into an anchorless double-row suture bridge transosseous su-tures(DS)group,an anchored double-row suture bridge transosseous-equivalent(DE)group,an an-chorless X-BOX construct transosseous sutures(XS)group,and an anchored X-BOX construct transos-seous-equivalent(XE)group,each of four,according to suture configuration(double-row suture bridge,traditional X-BOX construct)and fixation type(suture anchors,transosseous sutures).Then,their fatigue resistance(first-cycle excursion,gap length difference ratio,and the percentage of ex-posed footprints)and the failure strength(the maximum failure load and the re-tear type)were mea-sured using a biomechanical material testing machine.Results Different suture configurations affected failure strength(F=39.559,P<0.001),with the double-row suture bridge groups(693.07±58.35 N,746.76±138.57 N)showing significantly higher failure strength,compared to the traditional X-BOX groups(462.90±18.91 N,421.43±90.76 N).However,the fixation type did not significantly im-pact failure strength(F=1.161,P=0.302).Moreover,the suture configuration influenced the gap differ-ence ratio(F=7.781,P=0.016),but had no significant correlation with other fatigue resistance indica-tors(P>0.05).Meanwhile,failure strength and fatigue resistance were not correlated with fixation type,and the interaction between suture and fixation type(P>0.05).The incidence of failure types for the four suture configurations was as follows:Type I tendon tear:XS>XE>DS=DE;type II tendon tear:DS>XE>XS=DE;fixing material-related failure:DE>DS=XE=XS.Conclusion The failure strength and gap formation ratio in rotator cuff repair under fatigue loading are influenced by suture configuration,whereas no significant association has been observed with respect to fixation method,whether using transosseous sutures or suture anchors.

Purpose To explore the clinicopathological and molecular genetic features of phytosterolemia(PTSL)with necrobiotic xanthogranuloma.Methods 4 cases of PTSL with necrobiotic xanthogranuloma as the primary mani-festation were reviewed.Gene mutations were detected by whole-exome sequencing and screened and verified by Sanger sequencing.The clinical manifestations,laboratory tests,genetic testing results,treatment and prognoses of the pa-tients were analyzed.Results All 4 patients developed subcutaneous masses on the face over a period of 3-13 years.Case 4 showed weakness of both lower limbs and an intracranial mass on MRI.Blood smear analysis revealed that the patients had platelets of varying sizes and were generally large,with increased stomatocytes.Total cholesterol(6.9-11.36 mmol/L)and low-density lipoprotein(4.45-7.08 mmol/L)were elevated in 4 patients.Genetic analysis re-vealed that cases 2 and 4 carried heterozygous mutations in the ABCG5 gene,and case 3 had a homozygous mutation in the ABCG8 gene.Conclusion Thrombocytopenia,stomatocytosis and splenomegaly are the special clinical manifesta-tions of patients with PTSL,and necrobiotic xanthogranuloma may be one of the late manifestations of the disease.Early genetic testing plays a critical role in the timely diagnosis and management of PTSL.
