Purpose: Patient-derived cells (PDCs) and patient-derived organoids (PDOs) are complementary preclinical models widely used in translational cancer research. However, their molecular and functional differences have not been systematically characterized. This study established and analyzed paired PDC and PDO models derived from the same gastric cancer ascites to delineate platform-dependent molecular and functional profiles. Materials and Methods: Malignant ascites or pleural fluid obtained from 6 patients with advanced gastric cancer were used to establish paired PDC and PDO models. All pairs underwent comprehensive multi-omics profiling, integrating genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data. Phenotypic characterization included morphological, histological, proliferative, and cell cycle analyses. Drug sensitivity assays were performed using 4 chemotherapeutic agents commonly used to treat gastric cancer. Results: The 6 paired PDC and PDO models exhibited distinct morphological characteristics.Whole-genome analyses demonstrated high concordance among primary tumors, PDCs, and PDOs, confirming tumor representation across platforms. Multi-omics profiling identified platform-dependent molecular signatures; PDOs were enriched for extracellular matrix remodeling and stemness, whereas PDCs displayed proliferation- and immune-related signatures. Clinically relevant biomarkers, including HER2 and MET alterations, were concordant with primary tumors. Notably, drug responses differed between platforms and patients, indicating platform-dependent and patient-specific chemosensitivity. Conclusions Paired PDC and PDO models derived from the same patients preserved core patient-specific tumor characteristics while exhibiting distinct molecular and functional profiles. These findings underscore the culture platform as a critical determinant of experimental outcomes and therapeutic responses. Therefore, careful selection of an appropriate preclinical model is essential to accurately address biological questions and optimize precision oncology strategies.

Objective To compare the differences in clinical prognosis and safety between thoracic endovascular aortic repair(TEVAR)combined with bare metal stent(BMS)implantation therapy and TEVAR alone in patients with type B aortic dissection(TBAD)after 6 months.Methods The clinical and imaging data of patients diagnosed with TBAD and treated with TEVAR or TEVAR combined with BMS implantation in Nanyang Central Hospital from March 2023 to March 2024 were retrospectively collected.The patients were divided into TEVAR group and TEVAR+BMS group according to different treatment methods.The aortic remodeling indicators and postoperative complications at discharge and 6 months after surgery were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 37 patients were included,including 20 patients in the TEVAR group and 17 patients in the TEVAR+BMS group.There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups(all P＞0.05);at discharge and 6 months after surgery,the true lumen diameters and true lumen ratios of the abdominal aorta(proximal level of the celiac trunk and proximal level of the left renal artery)in the TEVAR+BMS group were better than those in the TEVAR group(all P＜0.05);the degree of thrombosis of the false lumen at 6 months after surgery was better in the TEVAR+BMS group than in the TEVAR group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions TEVAR combined with BMS implantation therapy can significantly improve the aortic remodeling effect of patients with TBAD,without increasing the risk of postoperative complications and death caused by aortic-related factors.Bare stent implantation as an auxiliary treatment method for endovascular repair is a safe and effective optimized treatment plan.

Objective To investigate whether successful percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)could improve symptoms and quality of life(QOL)in left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients with diabetes.Methods Patients with left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease who underwent PCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from April 2018 to May 2021 were consecutively enrolled and subdivided into 2 groups:diabetes and no diabetes.Detailed baseline characteristics,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,assessed with the Rose dyspnea scale(RDS),Seattle angina questionnaire(SAQ),the European quality of life-5 dimensions(EQ-5D)and 12-item short-form health survey(SF-12)questionnaire respectively,procedural details,and 1 month and 1 year follow-up data were collected.Results Among 440 left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients,disease was present in 176(40.00％),who had more hypertension,peripheral artery disease,and LCX lesion(all P＜0.05).The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and all-cause mortality were similar between the two groups(both P＞0.05)at 1 month follow-up,while all-cause mortality in diabetes patients was significantly higher than those without diabetes at 1 year follow-up(P=0.013).Low left ventricular ejection fraction was an independent risk factor for MACE and all-cause mortality at 1 month and 1 year follow-up after successful revascularization(all P＜0.05).Most importantly,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,and QOL were markedly improved regardless of diabetes both at 1 month and 1 year follow-up(all P＜0.05).Diabetes patients showed improved dyspnea and QOL at similar degree to the non-diabetes patients(all P＞0.05)and a more significantly relieved angina(P=0.013).Additionally,the number of chronic total occlusion(CTO)per patient was identified as an independent risk factor of dyspnea(OR 0.723,95％CI 0.525～0.997,P=0.048)and angina relief(OR 0.686,95％CI 0.473～0.995,P=0.047),and the contrast volume(OR 0.995,95％CI 0.992～0.999,P=0.008)as an independent risk factor of QOL improvement in diabetic patients.Conclusions Successful PCI is beneficial for relieving symptoms and improving quality of life in patients with diabetes who have left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of low fall alertness in elderly inpatients,construct a risk prediction model and validate it,providing a reference for clinical medical staff to identify elderly inpatients with low fall alertness in the early stage.Methods:A total of 605 elderly inpatients treated in Yijishan Hospital affiliated to Wannan Medical College from Oct 2023 to Mar 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into the training group(n=423)and validation group(n=182)at a ratio of 7∶3.The patients were evaluated using a general information questionnaire,the Social Frailty Screening Tool(HALFT),the Tilburg Frailty Indicator(TFI),and the Self-Awareness of Falls in Elderly scale(SAFE).Multivariate logistic analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of low fall alertness in elderly inpatients.RStudio was used to construct a risk prediction model of low fall alertness.The discrimination,calibration,and clinical net benefit of the model were verified using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,calibration plots,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results:Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the history of falls,monthly income,previous physical activity time,social frailty score and TFI score were independent risk factors for low fall alertness in elderly inpatients.The Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 test showed that χ2=8.863,P=0.354,indicating good calibration of the prediction model.The area under the ROC curve of the training group and the validation group were 0.860(95%CI:0.815-0.904)and 0.937(95%CI:0.888-0.986),respectively,and the maximum Youden indices of the model was 0.576 and 0.788,respectively,indicating good discrimination of the model.The DCA decision curve showed that the model had good clinical effectiveness.Conclusion:The constructed model has a good prediction effect and can help clinical medical staff quickly and effectively screen out elderly inpatients at risk of low fall alertness.

Objective:To investigate the application value of self-pulling latter transection(SPLT)in esophagojeju-nal anastomosis during total laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:From January 2021 to December 2023,80 pa-tients who underwent total laparoscopic total gastrectomy at the Department of General Surgery,Yancheng Third People's Hospital,were selected.Patients were grouped based on the intraoperative esophagojejunal anastomosis method:the SPLT group(35 cases,using SPLT esophagojejunostomy)and the Overlap group(45 cases,using esoph-agojejunal overlapping side-to-side anastomosis).Surgical related indicators,complication incidence,nutritional status,and quality of life assessment were compared between the two groups.Results:The time to first postoperative anal exhaust,the number of lymph nodes dissected,and the postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups(P＞0.05).The SPLT group had shorter operation time and esophagojejunal anastomosis time,and less intraopera-tive blood loss compared to the control group(P＜0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in the SPLT group was 8.57%,and in the Overlap group was 11.11%,with no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The nutritional status at 6 months postoperatively in the SPLT group[Hb(116.97±10.94)g/L、ALB(39.74±1.29)g/L、PA(0.30±0.45)g/L]and Overlap group[Hb(119.78±12.84)g/L、ALB(39.64±1.42)g/L、PA(0.30±0.36)g/L]were compared(P＞0.05).The quality of life assessment(overall health status,functional domains,symptom domains)at 6 months postoperatively between the SPLT group and the Overlap group was compared(P＞0.05).Conclusion:The use of SPLT esophagojeju-nal anastomosis in total laparoscopic total gastrectomy can improve the surgical efficiency,achieve high anastomosis,and its medium and short-term safety is comparable to that of esophagojejunal overlap side-to-side anastomosis.

Objective To explore the value of quantitative analysis of perirenal fat combined with Mayo adhesive probability(MAP)score in predicting the WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology(ISUP)nuclear grade of renal cell carcinoma(RCC).Methods The imaging data of 139 pathologically confirmed RCC patients were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into low-grade group(grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ,n=112)and high-grade group(grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ,n=27)according to the WHO/ISUP nuclear grade.Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between fat features and WHO/ISUP nuclear grade.The multivariate logistic regression model was used to detemine the related factors of high-grade RCC,and the area under the curve(AUC)of the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of each parameter.Results The AUC of perirenal adipose tissue(PAT)％alone for evaluating high-grade RCC was the highest,at 0.77[95％confidence interval(CI)0.69-0.83].The stepwise multivariate logistic regression model showed that perinephric fat stranding(PFS)[odds ratio(OR)=34.54,95％CI 7.60-156.87,P＜0.001],PAT％(OR=0.46,95％CI 0.32-0.66,P＜0.001),and tumor location(OR=0.26,95％CI 0.07-0.92,P=0.037)were related factors of high-grade RCC,with an AUC of 0.90(95％CI 0.84-0.94).Conclusion Quantitative analysis of perire-nal fat combined with MAP score can effectively predict the WHO/ISUP nuclear grade of RCC,providing a novel approach for per-sonalized treatment strategies to improve prognosis.

Objective:To construct a lentiviral interference plasmid targeting collapse response regulatory protein 1(CRMP1)gene,to establish a human neuroblastoma cell line(SH-SY5Y)with stable CRMP1 knockdown,and to investigate its impact on expression of NLRP3 inflammasome protein.Methods:Double-stranded shRNA was designed and synthesized targeting h-CRMP1 mRNA sequence,and cloned into PLKO.1 vector.Recombinant shCRMP1 plasmids were constructed correctly,which was transfected into HEK-293T cells for lentiviral packaging.Obtained lentivirus supernatant was concentrated and then infected into SH-SY5Y cells.The interference effect of shCRMP1 plasmid and protein expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome components in SH-SY5Y cells were detected by Western blot.Results:DNA sequencing results showed that insertion sequences of recombinant interference plasmids pLKO.1-shCRMP1 were consistent with designed sequences,which confirmed successful construction of shCRMP1 lentivirus interfering plasmids and transfected into HEK-293T cells for lentivirus packaging,and protein level of CRMP1 in HEK-293T cells were decreased.SH-SY5Y cells were infected with lentivirus concentrate obtained from packaging and screened with puromycin.Western blot results showed that shCRMP1 recombinant lentiviral plasmids could significantly down-regulate CRMP1 protein expression in SH-SY5Y cells.It was also found that in SH-SY5Y cell line with stable CRMP1 knockdown,inhibition of CRMP1 expression could effectively inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation under MPP+induction.Conclusion:pLKO.1-shCRMP1 lentiviral interfering plas-mids have been successfully constructed,and interference with CRMP1 can inhibit activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in MPP+-in-duced SH-SY5Y cells.This study provides guidance for further research on mechanism of CRMP1 in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease.

Purpose To explore the pathological characteristics,diagnosis,and differential diagnosis of pure ery-throid leukemia(PEL).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinicopathological data of 12 cases of PEL.Immunohistochemical EnVision method and flow cytometry were used to detect PEL-related immune markers,and heat-treated Giemsa R-banding technique was applied to analyze the chromosomal karyotype.Results Peripheral blood and bone marrow smears revealed that 2 out of 7 cases showed presence of proerythroblast in peripheral blood,and 7 out of 12 cases showed atypical proerythroblast in bone marrow samples.After recounting,the average percentage of proerythroblast in the 12 PEL cases was 36.8％(ranging from 2％to 69.5％),with an average of 53.2％of all er-ythroid cells(ranging from 5％to 88％).Among them,9 cases did not meet the diagnostic criteria for PEL.Bone marrow biopsy:11 cases showed hypercellularity,with tumor cells showing diffuse proliferation in 9 cases,accompa-nied by dysplasia of megakaryocytes in 7 cases,and there was increased proliferation of fibrous tissue in 9 cases.Im-munohistochemistry:12 cases exhibited strong staining intensity for CD71 and E-cadherin.11 cases expressed CD117,while 4 cases expressed CD34,3 cases exhibited slight expression of GPA,and 1 case weakly expressed CD61.Flow cytometry:in 8 cases,there was an increased proportion of early-stage erythroid cells,accounting for 3.1％to 80.31％of nucleated cells,with an average of 31.0％.All cases expressed CD117 and CD71 to varying degrees,with 7 out of 8 cases expressing CD36,5 out of 7 cases expressing CD105,and 3 out of 4 cases expressing GPA.A few ca-ses demonstrated aberrant expression of CD123 and CD7.Chromosomal Karyotyping:7 cases exhibited highly complex karyotypes(7/8),with frequent involvement of chromosomes 5,7,8,17,and 19.One case had a normal karyotype.Conclusion The diagnosis of PEL requires a comprehensive assessment combining various methods including bone marrow smears,bone marrow biopsy,immunohistochemistry,and flow cytometry.

Aim To investigate the promotive effects and mechanisms of the combined use of brucine(Bru)and lumbrokinase(LK),active ingredient derived from Longma formula,in promoting chondrocyte proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods The extracted primary rat chondrocytes were divided in-to the following groups:Control group,Bru,LK alone group,and Bro+LK combination group.The optimal drug concentration and intervention time were deter-mined using CCK-8 assay,followed by cell proliferation validation through EdU and phalloidin staining.The expression levels of collagen Ⅱ,aggrecan and SRY-re-lated high-mobility group box gene 9(SOX9)in chon-drocytes following intervention with the combination of Bru and LK were detected by Western blotting.Addi-tionally,the regulatory effects of these proteins on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were also investiga-ted.Results The optimal combination concentration of Longma formula active ingredients(Bru 0.025 mg·L-1+LK 5 mg·L-1)significantly enhanced chondro-cyte viability compared to control,Bru,or LK alone at 48 h.This combination increased the S-phase ratio,promoted the aggregation of intracellular actin fila-ments,and upregulated the expression of collagen Ⅱ and aggrecan.Furthermore,it activated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway,leading to increased SOX9 expres-sion.Conclusions The optimal combination of Bru and LK(Bru 0.025 mg·L-1+LK 5 mg·L-1)de-rived from Longma formula significantly maintains chondrocyte phenotype and promotes cellular prolifera-tion through the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signa-ling pathway,which subsequently upregulates the downstream target SOX9.
