Objective This study aimed to investigate the tumorigenic properties of MMTV-PyMT breast cancer transgenic mice at different ages(in weeks)and the changes in the composition of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment.Methods Eight groups of 4,6,8,10,12,14,16 and 18 weeks of age MMTV-PyMT female mice(FVB mice as the background)and one group of 8 weeks of FVB female mice were prepared for routine blood testing,the pathological changes of the mammary gland and lung metastases were observed by histopathological sections,and the immune cells in blood,spleen,and tumor were analyzed by flow cytometry.Results MMTV-PyMT mice showed adenular ductal lesions at 4～6 weeks of age;the ductal portion expanded to the growth boundary at 8～9 weeks of age,and then gradually broke through the glandular boundary to form early breast cancer at 8～12 weeks of age,and advanced breast cancer at 10～14 weeks of age.At 12 weeks of age,metastases were visible in the lungs of some mice,and at 14 weeks of age,the number of metastases in the lungs increased significantly.As the age of the mice increased,the number of white blood cells,neutrophils,and platelets in their blood increased gradually,while the lymphocytes and erythrocytes showed a gradual downward trend.Flow cytometry showed that with the increase in age,the proportion of T cells in the spleen and tumor gradually decreased,the MDSCs in the blood,spleen,and tumor gradually increased,and the NK cells in the tumor also gradually increased.Conclusions This study analyzed routine blood tests,pathology,and immune cells in the tissues of MMTV-PyMT mouse models of different weeks of age,providing a novel perspective on the dynamic alterations of the tumor immune microenvironment during the malignant progression of breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of eupatilin on ferroptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in high glucose-induced human renal tubular epithelial HK2 cells and its mechanism.Methods:HK2 cells were divided into a blank control group and a high glucose group according to the glucose concentration in the medium. The cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 5.6 or 30.0 mmol/L glucose. Additionally, an eupatilin control group and an eupatilin group were established, and 1 μmol/L eupatilin was added to the blank control group and the high glucose group, respectively. Cell proliferation and apoptosis rates were evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 assay and a flow cytometry assay, respectively. The relative reactive oxygen species content was detected using 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate fluorescent probe method and the relative expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) protein was detected using Western blotting to investigate eupatilin′s regulatory effect on ferroptosis. The effect of eupatilin on mitochondrial damage was detected by JC-1 staining. The relative expression of the EMT marker vimentin and nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) protein were evaluated using Western blotting. Data were analyzed by an independent sample t test or one-way analysis of variance. Results:Eupatilin treatment promoted the viability of HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The cell proliferation rate in the eupatilin group [(92.00±6.00)%] was higher than that in the high glucose group [(70.00±4.00)%], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.284, P<0.01). Eupatilin treatment inhibited the apoptosis of HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The apoptosis rate of HK2 cells in the eupatilin group [(5.00±1.50)%] was lower than that in the high glucose group [(43.00±4.00)%], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=15.410, P<0.01). Eupatilin blocked the ferroptosis in HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The relative reactive oxygen species content in the eupatilin group (1.50±0.23) was lower than that in the high glucose group (3.20±0.21), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=9.454, P<0.01). The relative expression of GPX4 protein in the eupatilin group (0.89±0.20) was higher than that in the high glucose group (0.21±0.02), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=6.721, P<0.01). Eupatilin reduced the mitochondrial damage in HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The red-green fluorescence intensity ratio in the eupatilin group (0.65±0.12) was higher than that in the high glucose group (0.32±0.11), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.298, P<0.01). Eupatilin inhibited the EMT process in HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The relative expression of vimentin in the eupatilin group (1.32±0.20) was lower than that in the high glucose group (2.12±0.12), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.941, P<0.01). Eupatilin activated the Nrf2 pathway in HK2 cells induced by high glucose. The relative expression of Nrf2 protein in the eupatilin group (0.87±0.12) was higher than that in the high glucose group (0.45±0.14), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.945, P<0.01). Conclusions:Eupatilin may inhibit ferroptosis and EMT process in high glucose-induced HK2 cells by activating the Nrf2 pathway.

On the basis of the knockdown group, HT-29 cells were infected with adenovirus vector overexpressing αB-crystallin (CRYAB) with an infection multiplicity of 50, which was set as the overexpression group. The relative expression of TCF12 in HT-29 cells was detected using Western blotting. The cell survival rate, cell clone number and cell migration number of HT-29 cells were detected using cell counting kit-8, clone formation assay and cell invasion assay, respectively. Glucose uptake, relative lactic acid production and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level of HT-29 cells were detected by related kits. The relative expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2 (HK2), lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), CRYAB, phosphorylated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (p-PI3K)/PI3K and phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt)/Akt proteins were detected by Western blotting. Data were analyzed by an independent sample t test or one-way analysis of variance. Results:The relative expression of TCF12 protein in the knockdown group was lower than that in the control group (0.14±0.03 vs 0.99±0.05, t=7.526, P<0.01). The cell survival rate, the cell clone number and the cell migration number per unit field of view in the knockdown group were all lower than those in the control group [(60.00±5.10)% vs (94.67±2.08)%, t=15.368, P<0.01; 52±5 vs 148±6, t=23.164, P<0.01; 26±4 vs 78±4, t=18.265, P<0.01].

The relative expression of GLUT1, HK2 and LDHA proteins in the knockdown group were all lower than those in the control group (0.38±0.05 vs 0.98±0.09, 0.12±0.03 vs 0.97±0.04, and 0.64±0.05 vs 0.99±0.06, all P<0.01). The relative expression of CRYAB, p-PI3K/PI3K and p-Akt/Akt proteins in the knockdown group were all lower than those in the control group (0.18±0.04 vs 0.92±0.03, t=11.265, P<0.01; 0.34±0.10 vs 0.92±0.04, t=18.257, P<0.01; 0.51±0.04 vs 1.11±0.07, t=13.165, P<0.01). The cell survival rate, the cell clone number and the cell migration number per unit field of view p in the overexpression group were all higher than those in the knockdown group [(97.00±6.56)% vs (45.67±6.03)%, t=12.762, P<0.01; 136.67±5.69 vs 44.33±6.03, t=22.585, P<0.01; 57.33±5.51 vs 24.67±4.51, t=25.312, P<0.01]. Glucose uptake, relative lactic acid production and ATP level in the overexpression group were all higher than those in the knockdown group [(1.25±0.08) mg/ml vs (0.51±0.05) mg/ml, t=22.164, P<0.01; (44.00±3.06)% vs (19.67±3.06)%, t=25.822, P<0.01; (21.00±2.00) μmol/L vs (9.33±1.53) μmol/L, t=18.876, P<0.01]. The relative expression level of CRYAB, p-PI3K/PI3K and p-Akt/Akt proteins in the overexpression group were all higher than those in the knockdown group (6.00±0.63 vs 0.96±0.24, t=12.79, P<0.01; 2.13±0.25 vs 0.10±0.03, t=13.90, P<0.01; 2.07±0.21 vs 0.46±0.04, t=13.17, P<0.01). Conclusions:TCF12 may promote the proliferation, migration and aerobic glycolysis of colorectal cancer cells by regulating CRYAB/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate and compare the clinical outcomes of the arterial pre-occlusion technique(APOT) and the traditional technique in the surgery of locally advanced pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement after conversion therapy.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 145 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement admitted to the Department of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery of the First Hospital Affiliated to Naval Medical University,from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients completed neoadjuvant therapy for tumors, and the feasibility of radical surgical treatment was determined by a multidisciplinary collaborative team evaluation before surgery. According to whether the intraoperative artery was pre-occluded, 145 patients were divided into two groups, including 28 cases in the APOT group(16 males, 12 females, aged (59.0±9.4) years), and 117 cases in the routine surgery group(76 males, 41 females, aged (55.1±8.2) years). To ensure comparability of baseline data between the APOT group and the routine surgery group, a 1∶2 match was performed using the propensity score matching method, and the caliper value was 0.006 45. The t-test,the Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the data between the two groups,respectively. Results:After matching the propensity score,there were 28 cases in the APOT group and 56 cases in the routine surgery group. There were no significant differences in gender,age,preoperative comorbidities,preoperative body mass index,surgical approaches,chemotherapy regimen,stereotactic body radiation therapy ratio,tumor markers,and type of invaded artery between the two groups (all P>0.05).The arterial occlusion time M(IQR) in the APOT group was 7.0(3.8)minutes(range:3 to 15 minutes),and no ischemic manifestations were observed in the distal target organs that blocked blood vessels after surgery. The operation time was (170.3±57.7)minutes in the APOT group and (235.0±80.2)minutes in the routine surgery group,and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.800, P<0.01). The APOT group also experienced less intraoperative blood loss(650(588)ml vs. 800(600)ml; U=1 026.500, P=0.021). No significant differences were found between the groups in combined vein resection and reconstruction,celiac trunk resection,early postoperative complications, readmission rates at 30 days,and postoperative length of stay(all P>0.05). Extra-arterial dissection was performed in all patients,with arterial resection and reconstruction in 3 cases: 2 cases in the APOT group(1 case involving the superior mesenteric artery and 1 case involving the common hepatic artery) and 1 case in the routine group(involving the common hepatic artery). Postoperative abdominal bleeding occurred in 4 cases,with 3 cases in the routine group,1 case in the routine group. The R0 resection rate was 85.7%(24/28) in the APOT group and 80.4%(45/56) in the routine group,without significant differences between the groups( P=0.763). The median overall survival time was 27.6 months for the APOT group and 22.5 months for the routine group,while the median disease-free survival was 11.7 months and 16.8 months,respectively,with no significant differences between the two groups( P=0.532, P=0.927). Conclusion:The arterial pre-occlusion technique can be used for extra-arterial dissection in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer involving the arteries,reducing surgery time and intraoperative blood loss.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of resveratrol(Res)-intervening dexamethasone(Dex)-induced mitochondrial autophagy in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)through SIRT2.Methods Mouse osteoblastic BMSCs were treated with Res,Dex,and the SIRT2 antagonist NAM.The mitochondria autophagosomes were observed using transmission electron microscopy(TEM).The protein and mRNA expression levels of SIRT2,LC-3,Beclin-1,TOM20,and Hsp60were determined using Western blot-ting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Res enhanced SIRT2 expression in BMSCs in a dose-and time-dependent manner.Dex(10-6 mol/L)inhibited the proliferation and viability of BMSCs,and significantly down-regulated the expres-sion of SIRT2mRNA and protein in BMSCs,whereas Res(10-6 mol/L)significantly inhibited the negative regulatory effects of Dex on the proliferation of and SIRT2 expression in BMSCs.Res(10-6 mol/L)significantly increased the mRNA expression of LC-3and Beclin-1(P<0.05),but significantly decreased the protein expression of TOM20 and Hsp60(P<0.05).Conclusion Res plays a role in the regulation of Dex-induced mitochondrial autophagy in BMSCs by mediating SIRT2.

Objective:To investigate the effect of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with sertraline on depressive symptoms and self-injurious behaviors in adolescents with depression and non-suicidal self-injury.Methods:This study was a prospective study. A total of 112 adolescent patients with depression and non-suicidal self-injury who received treatment at the Third Hospital of Quzhou from January 2021 to September 2023 were included in this study. These patients were divided into a control group and a study group, with 56 patients per group, using the random digital table method. The control group was treated with sertraline, while the study group was treated with high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with sertraline. The depression scores [assessed using the 24-item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-24) and the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS)], self-injury status, and inflammatory factor levels (tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-10, and interleukin-1β levels) were compared before and after the intervention.Results:Before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in HAMD-24 scores and SDS scores between the two groups (both P > 0.05). After intervention, both HAMD-24 scores and SDS scores decreased significantly in both groups (both P < 0.05). Additionally, the HAMD-24 scores [(13.46 ± 3.98) points] and SDS scores [(50.28 ± 5.13) points] in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(19.89 ± 4.23) points, (71.62 ± 6.88) points, t = -8.28, -18.61, both P < 0.05]. Before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in the number of self-injury incidents and self-injurious behavior scores between the two groups (both P > 0.05). After intervention, the number of self-injury incidents and the score of self-injurious behaviors significantly decreased in the study group compared with before intervention (both P < 0.05). After intervention, the number of self-injury incidents in the control group was decreased compared with before intervention ( P < 0.05), while the score of self-injurious behaviors did not differ significantly compared with before intervention ( P > 0.05). After intervention, the number of self-injury incidents [(2.15 ± 1.06) times] and the score of self-injurious behaviors [(2.41 ± 0.65) points] in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [5.43 ± 3.61) times, (12.04 ± 3.01) points, t = -7.78, -23.40, both P < 0.05]. Before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-10 levels between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After intervention, interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α levels in the study group were significantly lower than those before intervention (both P < 0.05), while interleukin-10 levels in the study group were significantly higher than those before intervention ( P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-10 between the pre- and post-intervention measurements in the control group (all P > 0.05). After intervention, interleukin-1β levels [(57.15 ± 6.33) ng/L] and tumor necrosis factor-α levels [(13.87 ± 5.91) ng/L] in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(73.61 ± 8.52) ng/L, (17.12 ± 5.28) ng/L], while interleukin-10 levels [(1.62 ± 0.66) ng/L] were significantly higher than those in the control group [(1.19 ± 0.63) ng/L, t = -11.60, 3.53, -3.07, all P < 0.05]. Conclusion:High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with sertraline can significantly reduce depressive symptoms and self-injurious behaviors in adolescents with depression and non-suicidal self-injury. The reason may be due to the decrease in inflammatory factor levels in patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with fluvoxamine treatment on improving depression, impulsivity, and self-injury levels in adolescent patients with depression.Methods:A total of 124 adolescent patients with depression who received treatment at the Department of Psychiatry, The Third Hospital of Quzhou, China from January 2022 to November 2023 were included in this study. The patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 62 patients per group, using the random number table method. Patients in the control group received treatment with fluvoxamine, while patients in the observation group underwent high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and treatment with fluvoxamine. Clinical efficacy and the scores of the Hamilton Depression Scale, Hamilton Anxiety Scale, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-ll revised version, and the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Assessment Tool revised version were compared between the two groups.Results:The total response rate in the observation group was 90.32% (56/62), which was significantly higher than that in the control group [72.58% (45/62), χ2 = 6.46, P < 0.05]. After treatment, scores of the Hamilton Depression Scale and Hamilton Anxiety Scale in the observation group were (12.08 ± 1.97) points and (11.58 ± 1.59) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(16.42 ± 2.33) points, (14.42 ± 1.94) points, t = -8.28, -18.61, both P < 0.05]. After treatment, the scores of the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-ll revised version and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Assessment Tool revised version in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(28.25 ± 3.91) points, (9.23 ± 2.12) points, t = 5.42, 9.44, both P < 0.05]. Conclusion:High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with fluvoxamine treatment can significantly reduce depressive symptoms, impulsivity, and self-injury levels in adolescent patients with depression.

Objective:To compare the clinical utility of 18F-fibroblast activating protein inhibitor (FAPI)-42 and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT imaging in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients. Methods:From May 2020 to September 2021, the images of 43 lung cancer patients (32 males, 11 females, age: 37-80 years) who pathologically confirmed and received 18F-FDG and 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT within 2 weeks in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University were prospectively analyzed. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) of 18F-FDG and 18F-FAPI-42 and the number of lesions detected by 2 imaging methods were compared by using paired t test and Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results:The 43 newly diagnosed lung cancer patients included 35 adenocarcinoma, 2 squamous cell carcinoma, 4 small cell lung cancer, and 2 high-grade neuroendocrine tumors. 18F-FAPI-42 had a very high tumor uptake (SUV max: 12.24±3.97) and lesion detection rate (positive rate: 100%(37/37)) in primary lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The uptake of 18F-FAPI-42 in lymph node (10.13±5.43), pleura (6.75(4.96, 8.58)) and bone lesion (7.18(4.33, 9.66)) were significantly higher than those of 18F-FDG (6.35±3.30, 2.69(1.81, 5.00), 4.38(2.96, 6.36); t=12.19, z values: 5.47, 5.79, all P<0.001). In lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, although the uptake of 18F-FAPI-42 in brain metastases was significantly lower than that of 18F-FDG (0.72(0.15, 1.82) vs 6.53(4.65, 9.34); z=6.42, P<0.001), the tumor/background (T/B) ratio was significantly higher than that of 18F-FDG (3.54(1.15, 14.88) vs 0.96(0.77, 1.04); z=6.05, P<0.001). In lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, the number of lesions detected by 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT was significantly more than that of 18F-FDG (lymph node: 6.0(2.3, 11.5) vs 4.5(2.0, 10.8); brain: 2.0(1.0, 3.0) vs 0.0(0.0, 0.0); pleura: 6.0(2.8, 10.0) vs 4.0(0.8, 5.5); z values: 2.16, 3.10, 2.04, all P<0.05). However, in high-grade neuroendocrine tumors and small cell lung cancer, the SUV max of 18F-FAPI-42 in primary lesions (8.05±2.60), lymph node lesions (5.98±2.21) and brain lesions (0.44(0.13, 0.82)) were lower than those of 18F-FDG (16.28±5.17, 12.30±5.47, 4.94(4.84, 6.25); t values: 3.58, 7.52, z=3.06, all P<0.05). Conclusions:In lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, 18F-FAPI-42 has a very high tumor uptake and lesion detection rate in primary tumor. In addition, compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT, 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT shows clearer tumor contours and more lesions. Therefore, 18F-FAPI-42 is more suitable for preliminary staging of lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma than 18F-FDG, while the opposite is true in small cell lung cancer and high-grade neuroendocrine tumors.
