Objective: To investigate the specific interference of the novel anti-CD38 antibody mezagitamab in pretransfusion testing, establish an immunomagnetic bead pre-treatment method to eliminate it, and evaluate its impact on other blood group systems and clinical timeliness, thereby providing experimental evidence and a solution for safe transfusion. Methods: MOLP8 cellular protein coated immunomagnetic beads were prepared. Unexpected antibody screening was performed on simulated samples with different mezagitamab concentrations to verify the interference elimination effect. The impact of immunomagnetic bead adsorption of mezagitamab on antigenantibody reactions in other blood group systems was assessed, and the duration of the interferenceeliminating effect was studied. Results: MOLP8-coated immunomagnetic beads were successfully prepared, which effectively eliminated mezagitamab interference at different concentrations without affecting other blood group detection, with a stable effect for 2 weeks. Conclusion: MOLP8 cellular protein-coated immunomagnetic beads efficiently and specifically eliminate mezagitamab-induced pre-transfusion testing interference without affecting other blood groups, providing a theoretical basis for safe transfusion in patients receiving mezagitamab therapy.

Objective:To investigate disease characteristics of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) based on the PsA cohort in West China Hospital, so as to provide a reference for clinicians in its diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation strategy formulation.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out, and a descriptive analysis was conducted on clinical data from PsA patients who were treated at the Department of Dermatology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University between April 2, 2020, and January 21, 2025. Demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, laboratory and imaging findings, and treatment modalities were analyzed.Results:A total of 530 PsA patients were included, of whom 332 (62.6%) were males and 198 (37.4%) were females, with ages of 44.1 ± 12.4 years. Skin lesions preceded joint symptoms in 452 patients (85.3%), with time intervals ( M [ Q1, Q3]) of 8.0 (3.0, 15.0) years. Overweight or obesity was observed in 319 patients (60.2%), and 188 (35.5%) had comorbid fatty liver. Peripheral joint involvement was common (485 cases, 91.5%), with the proximal interphalangeal joints being most frequently affected by tenderness (172 cases, 35.5%) and swelling (119 cases, 24.5%) ; the number of enthesitis cases identified by ultrasonography (116 cases, 23.9%) was significantly higher than that by clinical examination (82 cases, 15.5%) ; axial joint involvement was observed in 258 patients (48.7%), with the sacroiliac joints most commonly affected (201 cases, 77.9%). Regarding treatment, conventional systemic drugs were predominant in the treatment of psoriasis prior to the diagnosis of PsA; after the diagnosis of PsA, the number of patients receiving targeted therapies increased to 334 (63.0%), with interleukin-17 inhibitors being the most common (140 cases, 26.4%), followed by tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors (106 cases, 20.0%) and Janus kinase inhibitors (39 cases, 7.4%) . Conclusions:PsA predominantly affects males over 40 years old and is characterized by preceding skin lesions, delayed diagnosis, and multiple comorbidities. High-frequency ultrasound has advantages in the early detection of peripheral enthesitis. Further attention is needed for managing comorbidities such as fatty liver and obesity-related metabolic conditions.

Gynecologic malignant tumors are among the leading diseases threatening women's lives and health,with the highest morbidity and mortality rates among all female diseases.These tumors originate from female reproductive organs and are typically classified based on the affected site.Ovarian cancer(OC),endometrial cancer(EC)and cervical cancer(CCA)are the most common types.Currently,gynecologic malignant tumors are primarily treated with a combination of surgery,chemotherapy and radiotherapy,where drugs play a critical role in the treatment process.However,the actual clinical effectiveness is often influenced by various factors,such as adverse reactions due to drug toxicity and the drug resistance and insensitivity observed in some patients,which limit improvements in patient survival rates.Recent studies have shown that the same type of tumor exhibits significant biological characteristics and drug response heterogeneity among different individuals,which is a key factor contributing to the varied clinical outcomes when using the same drug treatment for the same type of gynecologic malignant tumor.To achieve individualized and precise treatment for gynecologic malignant tumors,there is an urgent need to develop in vitro models that closely resemble human tumors for clinical research.Drug screening is a technique used to identify and evaluate compounds with pharmacological activity and potential therapeutic effects,providing doctors with scientific guidance on drug use,thereby avoiding blind drug testing and reducing patients'therapeutic pain and economic burden by assessing the effects of different drugs under specific conditions.Organoid models have been extensively studied as an innovative drug screening tool and personalized medicine for treating gynecologic malignancies.Organoids are tissue-like structures with a specific spatial arrangement formed in vitro through three-dimensional cell culture,capable of highly simulating the structure and function of tissues in vivo and displaying histological and genotypic characteristics very similar to human organs.This approach has largely overcome the limitations of traditional tumor models,such as patient-derived cancer cell models and patient-derived tumor xenograft models,becoming an essential research tool in oncology.It provides a more physiologically relevant experimental platform for drug screening studies of gynecologic malignancies.This paper compared the advantages and disadvantages of several preclinical cancer models,reviewed the development process of organoids,and described the establishment of gynecologic oncology organoids and their application in drug screening for ovarian,endometrial,and cervical cancers.Additionally,we discussed the current limitations of organoid technology in its application and envisioned its future development,aiming to provide insights for future medical research,particularly in new drug discovery and personalized medicine.

Remodeling the tumor microenvironment through reprogramming tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and increasing the immunogenicity of tumors via immunogenic cell death (ICD) have been emerging as promising anticancer immunotherapy strategies. However, the heterogeneous distribution of TAMs in tumor tissues and the heterogeneity of the tumor cells make the immune activation challenging. To overcome these dilemmas, a hybrid bacterium with tumor targeting and penetration, TAM polarization, and photothermal conversion capabilities is developed for improving antitumor immunotherapy in vivo. The hybrid bacteria (B.b@QDs) are prepared by loading Ag₂S quantum dots (QDs) on the Bifidobacterium bifidum (B.b) through electrostatic interactions. The hybrid bacteria with hypoxia targeting ability can effectively accumulate and penetrate the tumor tissues, enabling the B.b to fully contact with the TAMs and mediate their polarization toward M1 phenotype to reverse the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. It also enables to overcome the intratumoral heterogeneity and obtain abundant tumor-associated antigens by coupling tumor penetration of the B.b with photothermal effect of the QDs, resulting in an enhanced immune effect. This strategy that combines B.b-triggered TAM polarization and QD-induced ICD achieved a remarkable inhibition of tumor growth in orthotopic breast cancer.
