HDAC7, a member of class IIa HDACs, plays a pivotal regulatory role in tumor, immune, fibrosis, and angiogenesis, rendering it a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, due to the high similarity in the enzyme active sites of class IIa HDACs, inhibitors encounter challenges in discerning differences among them. Furthermore, the substitution of key residue in the active pocket of class IIa HDACs renders them pseudo-enzymes, leading to a limited impact of enzymatic inhibitors on their function. In this study, proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology was employed to develop HDAC7 drugs. We developed an exceedingly selective HDAC7 PROTAC degrader B14 which showcased superior inhibitory effects on cell proliferation compared to TMP269 in various diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Subsequent investigations unveiled that B14 disrupts BCL6 forming a transcriptional inhibition complex by degrading HDAC7, thereby exerting proliferative inhibition in DLBCL. Our study broadened the understanding of the non-enzymatic functions of HDAC7 and underscored the importance of HDAC7 in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly in DLBCL and AML.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of electrical stimulation-induced auditory brainstem response(EABR)monitoring on the cochlear nerve pathway during acoustic neuroma surgery.Methods The data of 36 patients who underwent acoustic neuroma surgery were studied,all surgeries were performed using the middle fossa approach.Among them,18 cases were monitored intraoperatively using EABR monitoring 4 times as the mo-nitoring group,while the other 18 cases underwent surgery without monitoring as the control group.The monito-ring group,preoperatively,there were 7 ears classified as grade A,6 ears as grade B,and 5 ears as grade C.The preoperative pure tone average thresholds(0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 kHz)were 37.60±16.95 dB HL,and the maximum tumor diameter was 13.76±4.37 mm.The control group,preoperatively,there were 4 ears classified as grade A,7 ears as grade B,and 7 ears as grade C.The preoperative pure tone average was 46.80±22.64 dB HL,and the max-imum tumor diameter was 13.74±4.26 mm.Results In the monitoring group,except for the first monitoring,the V-wave evoked rate was 72.22%(13/18),and for the remaining three times,it was 100.00%(18/18).The mini-mum current stimulation intensity that could evoke the V-wave was 0.5 mA,and the V-wave latency was 3.97±0.17 ms.Follow-up was conducted for both groups of patients within 1 to 3 months postoperatively.In the monito-ring group,there were 7 ears classified as grade A,4 ears as grade B,4 ears as grade C,and 3 ears as grade D.Among them,3 patients experienced hearing loss after surgery,and the postoperative pure tone average was 52.20±38.35 dB HL.In the control group,there was 1 ear classified as grade A,1 ear as grade B,6 ears as grade C,and 10 ears as grade D.Among them,10 patients experienced hearing loss after surgery,and the postoperative pure tone average was 90.90±37.28 dB HL.Conclusion EABR monitoring during the resection of acoustic neuroma not only has positive significance for improving the hearing protection rate of acoustic neuroma surgery,but also assists the surgeons in identifying the cochlear nerve during surgery.The integrity of the auditory nerve pathway is protec-ted to the greatest extent for possible cochlear implanting.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors for poor prognosis in elderly patients with CHD and left ventricular dysfunction(LVD)treated by CABG,and to construct a logistic predic-tion model.Methods A total of 199 elderly CHD patients with LVD undergoing CABG in Zhu-jiang Hospital from April 2020 to April 2023 were retrospectively enrolled.After 1 year of follow-up,according to whether MACCE occurred after surgery,they were divided into MACCE group(24 cases)and non-MACCE group(175 cases).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors for poor prognosis,and a logistic prediction model was constructed.Results The MACCE group had significantly larger proportions of hypertension,diabetes,chronic kidney disease,NYHA gradeⅢand multi-vessel disease,and smaller proportion of non-cardiopulmonary bypass than the non-MACCE group(P<0.05,P<0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes(OR=2.328,95%CI:1.469-3.690,P=0.000),NYH A grade(OR=2.181,95%CI:1.184-4.021,P=0.013),multi-vessel disease(OR=1.996,95%CI:1.187-3.355,P=0.009),and non-cardiopulmonary bypass(OR=0.660,95%CI:0.541-0.806,P=0.000)were independent influen-cing factors for poor prognosis in the patients after CABG.The AUC value of the constructed pre-diction model in predicting poor prognosis was 0.822(95%CI:0.721-0.923),with a sensitivity of 66.70%and a specificity of 80.60%.Conclusion Diabetes,NYHA grade,multi-vessel disease and non-cardiopulmonary bypass are independent influencing factors for poor prognosis in elderly CHD patients complicated with LVD after CABG.The constructed logistic prediction model has certain predictive value for poor prognosis in these elderly patients.

Objective To explore the CD27 expression level of abnormal plasma cells in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and immune phenotype and the relationships with tumor prognosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 61 newly diagnosed MM patients to evaluate the expression level of CD27 in abnormal plasma cells, and the differences in clinical indicators between CD27-positive and CD27-negative MM patients were compared. The efficacy of CD27-positive and CD27-negative MM patients was analyzed after four cycles of chemotherapy, and all patients receiving treatment in the hospital were followed up for survival analysis. Results Among the 61 patients, 21 had positive expression of CD27 in abnormal bone marrow plasma cells (CD27-positive group), and 40 had negative expression (CD27-negative group). The CD27-positive group had a lower proportion of CD56+ abnormal plasma cells and creatinine levels in peripheral blood and a higher lymphocyte count than the CD27-negative group (

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of resveratrol(RES)in the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)through the use of biological information methods such as network pharmacology and molecular docking and to provide a theoretical reference for the clinical application of RES in the treatment of OSCC.Methods The Swiss Target Prediction(http://www.swisstargetprediction.ch),SEA(http://sea.bkslab.org)database,and Pharm map-per database(http://lilab-ecust.cn)were used to retrieve RES-related targets,and the DISGENET(www.disgenet.org),OMIM(https://omim.org)and GeneCards(https://www.genecards.org)databases were used to screen OSCC disease tar-gets.The intersection of drugs and disease targets was determined,and Cytoscape 3.7.2 software was used to construct a"drug-diseasetarget pathway"network.The Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins(STRING)data-base was used to construct a target protein interaction network,and the DAVID database was used for enrichment analy-sis of key proteins.Finally,molecular docking validation of key proteins was performed using AutoDock and PyMOL.The enrichment analysis and molecular docking results were integrated to predict the possible molecular mechanisms of RES treatment in OSCC;western blot was used to determine the effect of resveratrol at different concentrations(50,100)μmol/L on the expression of Src tyrosine kinase(SRC),epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),estrogen re-ceptor gene 1(ESR1),and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/AKT)signaling pathway proteins in OSCC HSC-3 cells.Results A total of 243 targets of RES drugs and 6 094 targets of OSCC were identified.A total of 116 potential common targets were obtained by intersecting drugs with disease targets.These potential targets mainly participate in biological processes such as in vivo protein self-phosphorylation,peptide tyrosine phosphorylation,trans-membrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway,and positive regulation of RNA polymerase Ⅱ promot-er transcription,and they interfere with the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to exert anti-OSCC effects.The docking results of resveratrol with OSCC molecules indicated that key targets,such as EGFR,ESR1,and SRC,have good binding activi-ty.The results of cell-based experiments showed that resveratrol inhibited the protein expression of SRC,EGFR,ESR1,p-PI3K,and p-AKT in HSC-3 cells in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion RES can inhibit the expres-sion of its targets EGFR,ESR1,SRC,p-PI3K,and p-AKT in OSCC cells.
