Objective To investigate the impact of donor kidney histopathological lesions on the risk of BK virus (BKV) infection and progression after kidney transplantation. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 326 kidney transplant recipients from deceased donors at the Department of Kidney Transplantation, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, from January 2019 to June 2020. The recipients were divided into two groups based on whether BKV infection occurred after kidney transplantation: the BKV infection group (145 cases) and the non-BKV infection group (181 cases). The correlation between donor kidney histopathological findings from zero-hour biopsy and BKV infection, as well as the impact on the risk and progression of BKV infection, was analyzed. Results The incidence of BKV infection among the 326 kidney transplant recipients was 44.5% (145/326). The clearance rate of BKV after infection was 82.1% (119/145), while 17.9% (26/145) progressed to BKV viremia. Among the 326 qualified kidney biopsy specimens, 32 cases showed mild tubular atrophy, 324 cases had mild acute tubular injury, 27 cases exhibited mild hyaline arteriosclerosis, 10 cases had moderate to severe hyaline arteriosclerosis, 7 cases showed mild interstitial inflammation, 23 cases had mild interstitial fibrosis, 6 cases exhibited mild arterial intimal fibrosis, and 1 case had moderate to severe arterial intimal fibrosis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that male recipients, donor age and tubular atrophy were independent risk factors for BKV infection (all P<0.05). Tubular atrophy was also an independent risk factor for the progression from BKV uria to BKV viremia (P<0.05). Conclusions Donor kidney histopathological lesions have a certain impact on BKV infection and progression after kidney transplantation. Patients with more severe tubular atrophy in donor kidneys have a higher risk of BKV infection after kidney transplantation and are more likely to progress to BKV viremia.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether adding 1 transverse screw (TS) to the triangular parallel cannulated screw (TPCS) fixation has a mechanical stability advantage for Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures by conducting finite element analysis on four internal fixation methods. METHODS: Based on CT data of a healthy adult male volunteer's femur, three Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fracture models (Pauwels angle 70°, Pauwels angle 80°, and Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect) were constructed using Mimics 21.0 software and SolidWorks 2017 software. Four different internal fixation models were built at the same time, including TPCS, TPCS+TS, three cross screws (TCS), and TPCS+medial buttress plate (MBP). The mechanical stability of different models under the same load was compared by finite element analysis. RESULTS: The femoral model established in this study exhibited a maximum stress of 28.62 MPa, with relatively higher stress concentrated in the femoral neck. These findings were comparable to previous studies, indicating that the constructed femoral finite element model was correct. The maximum stress of internal fixation in finite element analysis showed that TCS was the lowest and TPCS+MBP was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° and 80° models, while TPCS+TS was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model. The maximum displacement of internal fixation in each fracture model was located at the top of the femoral head, with TCS having the highest maximum displacement of the femur. The maximum stress of fracture surface in finite element analysis showed that TCS was the lowest and TPCS was the highest in the Pauwels angle 70° model, while TPCS+MBP was the lowest and TPCS/TCS were the highest in the Pauwels angle 80° model and the Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model, respectively. The maximum displacement of fracture surfece analysis showed that TPCS+MBP was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° and 80° models, while TPCS+TS was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model. CONCLUSION For Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures, the biomechanical stability of TPCS+TS was superior to that of TPCS alone and TCS, but it has not yet reached the level of TPCS+MBP.

Immunotherapy has become a pivotal modality in clinical cancer treatment. However, its effectiveness is limited to a small subset of patients due to the low antigenicity, impaired innate response, and various adaptive immune resistance mechanisms of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Accumulating evidence reveals the critical roles of metal elements in shaping immunity against tumor progression and metastasis. The marriage of metalloimmunotherapy and nanotechnology further presents new opportunities to optimize the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of metal ions in a precise spatiotemporal control manner. Several metallodrugs have demonstrated encouraging immunotherapeutic potential in preliminary studies and are currently undergoing clinical trials at different stages, yet challenges persist in scaling up production and addressing long-term biosafety concerns. This review delineates how metal materials modulate biological activities across diverse cell types to orchestrate antitumor immunity. Moreover, it summarizes recent progress in smart drug delivery-release systems integrating metal elements, either as cargo or vehicles, to enhance antitumor immune responses. Finally, the review introduces current clinical applications of nanomedicines in metalloimmunotherapy and discusses potential challenges that impede its widespread translation into clinical practice.

TCP family as plant specific transcription factor, plays an important role in different aspects of plant development. In order to screen TCP family members in tobacco, the homologous sequences of tobacco and Arabidopsis TCP family were identified by genome-wide homologous alignment. The physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships and cis-acting elements were analyzed by bioinformatics. The homologous genes of AtTCP3/AtTCP4 were screened, and RT-qPCR was used to detect the changes of gene expression upon 20% PEG6000 treatment. The results show that tobacco contains 63 TCP family members. Their amino acid sequence length ranged from 89 aa to 596 aa, and their protein hydropathicity grand average of hydropathicity (GRAVY) ranged from -1.147 to 0.125. The isoelectric point (pI) ranges from 4.42 to 9.94, the number of introns is 0 to 3, and the subcellular location is all located in the nucleus. The results of conserved domain and phylogenetic relationship analysis showed that the tobacco TCP family can be divided into PCF, CIN and CYC/TB1 subfamilies, and each subfamily has a stable sequence. The results of cis-acting elements in gene promoter region showed that TCP family genes contain low docile acting elements (LTR) and a variety of stress and metabolic regulation related elements (MYB, MYC). Analysis of gene expression patterns showed that AtTCP3/AtTCP4 homologous genes (NtTCP6, NtTCP28, NtTCP30, NtTCP33, NtTCP42, NtTCP57, NtTCP63) accounted for 20% PEG6000 treatment significantly up-regulated/down-regulated expression, and NtTCP30 and NtTCP57 genes were selected as candidate genes in response to drought. The results of this study analyzed the TCP family in the tobacco genome and provided candidate genes for the study of drought-resistance gene function and variety breeding in tobacco.
