Chinese Journal of Immunology 2025;41(8):1958-1964
Objective:To study distribution of CD24 in immune microenvironment and its relationship between pathological status of axillary lymph nodes during neoadjuvant therapy(NAT)for breast cancer.Methods:A total of 200 breast cancer patients admitted to the First People's Hospital of Chenzhou City from February 2021 to February 2024 were selected as research objects.According to CD24 expression,patients were divided into high expression group(n=126)and low expression group(n=74),and divided into pCR group(n=91)and non-pCR group(n=109)according to clinical treatment effect.Hierarchical regression model was used to analyze influence of different clinicopathological features on CD24 expression,generalized linear mixed model was constructed to judge relationship between CD24 and pCR,and dose-response relationship between CD24 and pCR was analyzed by restricted cubic spline method,GMDR model was used to analyze interaction of CD24 and immune microenvironment factors on pCR.Results:CD24 expression was correlated with TNM stage,vascular invasion,number of lymph nodes and tumor markers levels.CD24 mRNA level in patients after NAT showed a gradually decreasing trend.Compared with before treatment,CD24 mRNA expression at 1 month,3 months and 6 months after treatment had statistical significance(P<0.05),immune microenvironment factors levels in patients were signifi-cantly changed,and CD3+T,CD4+T,CD8+T,FOXP3,IL-10,IgG and IgM levels were increased,while CD10+T,IL-6 and IL-17 levels were decreased.TNM stage,vascular invasion,number of lymph nodes,CA125 and CEA levels were significant positive related with CD24 level(P<0.05).Tumor aspect ratio,TNM stage,vascular invasion,number of lymph nodes,HER-2,Ki-67,CD24 expres-sions and CD24 mRNA level were correlated with post-NAT axillary lymph node pCR in breast cancer patients.CD24 mRNA expres-sion was a risk factor for post-NAT axillary lymph node pCR,and probability of pCR in patients decreased significantly with increase of CD24 mRNA expression.CD24 interacted with CD3+T,CD4+T,CD8+T,CD10+T,FOXP3,IL-6,IL-10,IL-17,IgG and IgM on pCR.Conclusion:CD24 level in patients after NAT showes a gradually decreasing trend.CD24 mRNA expression is a risk factor for axillary lymph node pCR after NAT.With increase of CD24 mRNA expression,probability of pCR in patients decreases significantly.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between obesity phenotype and the occurrence of hypertension in middle-aged and elderly adults in China. MethodsData were obtained from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) in 2011 and 2015. Participants who completed two visits with ≥45 years old age at baseline were enrolled. Obesity phenotype was defined as the following four groups according to weight and metabolic status:metabolically healthy non-overweight/obesity (MHNO), metabolically healthy overweight/obesity (MHO), metabolically abnormal non-overweight/obesity (MANO), and metabolically abnormal overweight/obesity (MAO). Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the relationship between obesity phenotype and the incidence of hypertension. ResultsA total of3 781 subjects with 1 775(46.95%) males and mean age of (57.76±8.57) years were included in this study. When the metabolically normal non-overweight/obese group (MHNO) was regarded as the reference group, the risk of developing hypertension was significantly increased (P<0.01) in MHO, MANO, and MAO with HRs of 1.35(1.11‒1.63), 1.51(1.15‒1.97), and 2.00(1.68‒2.38) respectively.ConclusionBoth MHO phenotype and MAO/MANO are significantly associated with the occurrence of hypertension in middle-aged and elderly adults.

With the rapid development and increased integration of Chinese economy with global economy, China assumes more responsibilities and obligations for global health, resulting in great poten-tial needs for professionals in global health. From the angle of global health talent need , this article deeply illuminated that the global health talent training was helpful to take advantage of international resources to solve the problem of health, serve China's peaceful development strategy, comply with development trend of public health, and remedy limitations of traditional medicine undergraduate. Training undergraduates in global health who are China-specific and global competent is the only way to meet the talent demand of China's future. Multi-level global health education will become an important part of medical education in future in China.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationships between erythrocyte membrane n-6:n-3 PUFAs ratio and blood lipids and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP).
METHODSThe observational study consisted of a population-based cross-sectional study of 456 Chinese and a subsequent 1-year follow-up study of 171 subjects with the fasting plasma total cholesterol of 5.13-8.00 mmol/L.
RESULTSIn the cross-sectional analysis, plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) had a significant and negative association with the erythrocyte membrane n-6:n-3 PUFAs ratio (P for trend=0.019) after adjusting for sex, age and total PUFA percentage. In the follow-up study, 171 subjects were categorized into quartiles by the changes of n-6:n-3 ratio in erythrocyte membrane (Δ=month 12-month 0). In the top quartile whose ratios of n-6:n-3 increased by an average of 1.25 during the follow-up, the LDL-c-lowering extent was 3.3 times of that in the lowest quartile whose ratios of n-6:n-3 decreased by an average of 1.13 (-1.07 mmol/L v.s. -0.32 mmol/L). The hsCRP decreased by 0.11 mg/dL in the lowest quartile while increasing by 0.10 mg/dL in the top quartile (P for difference=0.052).
CONCLUSIONOur results suggested that the balance between n-6 and n-3 fatty acids may optimize the cardiovascular benefits from dietary PUFAs.
