BackgroundPreventing and intervening in adolescent gaming disorder is of significant practical importance. Gaming motivation is strongly linked to gaming addiction and serves a key function in comprehending and addressing addictive gaming behaviors. However， the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder remains unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder among adolescents， so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of gaming disorder in this population. MethodsFrom January to February 2024， a cluster sampling method was employed to select 1 414 adolescents from four middle schools in Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality as participants in the study. Online Game Motivation Scale （OGMS） and Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents （GADIS-A） were administered. Network analysis methods were utilized to investigate the relationships between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder. ResultsThe network edge weights revealed that achievement motivation was positively correlated with impaired game control ability， continued gaming despite negative consequences and the frequency of symptom occurrence （r=0.115， 0.050， 0.076， P<0.05）. Social motivation was negatively correlated with negative consequences （r=-0.054， P<0.05），while immersion motivation was positively correlated with continued gaming despite negative consequences （r=0.032， P<0.05）. Achievement motivation exhibited the highest strength centrality （1.157） among the three components of gaming motivation. ConclusionThe connections between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder exhibit distinct patterns， with each motivational component influencing gaming disorder through specific symptom pathway. Among these components， achievement motivation plays the most critical role in the interplay between gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder. ［Funded by Chongqing Science and Health Joint Medical Science and Technology Innovation Projects General Projects （number， 2023MSXM133）］

Objective:To investigate the function and mechanism of exosome Linc00665 in modulating CD8+T cell immunoreactivity to promote radiotherapy resistance in OSCC.Methods:HOEC,SCC9 and SCC9-RR exosomes were extracted and identified,and the expression of Linc00665 was detected by qRT-PCR in cell lines and exosomes.The expression of TNF-α,IFN-γ,perforin and granzyme B in each treatment group was detected by ELISA(PBS,SCC9 exo,SCC9-RR exo).The killing ability of CD8+T cells against SCC9 cells in each treatment group was detected by CCK-8 assay.The targets of Linc00665 were further bioinformatically ana-lyzed and verified by qRT-PCR and Western blot.The expression of Linc00665,miR-28-5p and PD-1 in CD8+T cells was exogenous-ly regulated,the expression of immunoreactive factors in the supernatants of each treatment group was detected by ELISA(NC,sh-Linc00665,miR-28-5p inhibitor,sh-PD-1),and the killing ability of cells in each group was detected by CCK-8 method.Results:The concentrations of TNF-α,IFN-γ,perforin and granzyme B in the supernatants of cell culture in the SCC9-RR exo/CD8+T group were significantly decreased compared with those in the PBS/CD8+T group and the SCC9 exo/CD8+T group(P＜0.05),and the kill-ing ability of the cells in the SCC9-RR exo group was significantly decreased compared with those in the PBS group and the SCC9 exo group(P＜0.05),suggesting that SCC9-RR exo could inhibit the tumor killing ability of CD8+T cells.qRT-PCR results suggested that Linc00665 was highly expressed in the SCC9-RR cell line as well as exosome(P＜0.05).It was further verified by bioinformat-ics analysis that Linc00665 could regulate PD-1 expression via miR-28-5p,thereby modulating CD8+T cell immunoreactivity to pro-mote OSCC radiotherapy resistance.Conclusion:Exosome Linc00665 regulates CD8+T cell immunoreactivity through miR-28-5p/PD-1 axis to promote OSCC radiotherapy resistance.

Objective:To study the effects and the related molecular mechanisms of miR-148a-3p on the proliferation,invasion and migration of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma SACC-LM cells.Methods:miR-148a-3p mimics and inhibitors,siRNA targeting EG-FR and their corresponding controls were transfected into SACC-LM cells.Bioinformatics was used to predict the potential target genes of miR-148a-3p.EGFR and miR-148a-3p mRNA expression levels were examined by qRT-PCR and the protein levels of EG-FR were detected by Western blotting.CCK-8,scratch,and Transwell assays were used to study the proliferation,migration,and invasion of SACC-LM cells,respectively.The direct targeting relationship between miR-148a-3p and EGFR was examined by using the double luciferase reporter gene assay.Statistical analysis of the data was performed by SPSS 22.0 software.Results:Overexpres-sion or inhibition of miR-148a-3p significantly inhibited or promoted the proliferation,invasion and metastasis of SACC-LM cells re-spectively(P＜0.05).Bioinformatics and double luciferase assay showed that miR-148a-3p directly targeted and regulated the expres-sion of EGFR(P＜0.001).Downregulation of EGFR inhibited the proliferation,migration and invasion of SACC-LM cells(P＜0.05)and partially reversed the promoting effect of miR-148a-3p inhibition(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The downregulation of miR-148a-3p leads to the abnormally high expression of its target gene EGFR,and promotes the proliferation,invasion,and migration of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma cells.

Objective:To investigate the effects of methyltransferases like 3(METTL3)mediated m6A modification of double homology cassette A pseudogene8(DUXAP8)on the proliferation,migration and invasion of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma SACC-LM cells and its potential molecular mechanisms.Methods:Whole-transcriptome sequencing showed that DUXAP8 was highly ex-pressed in SACC than in para-cancerous tissues(P＜0.05).The m6A modification sites on DUXAP8 were predicted using the SRAMP website,and the mRNA and protein expression of m6A-modified genes and the genes associated with the epithelial-mesen-chymal transition(EMT)was measured by qRT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.METTL3 and DUXAP8 was knocked down or overexpressed in SACC-LM cells,and the proliferation,migration,and invasion of the cells were assessed by CCK-8,scratch and Transwell assays.The correlation between METTL3 and DUXAP8 was evaluated using MeRIP-qPCR.Results:The expression of DUXAP8 in SACC tumor was higher than that in para-cancerous tissues(P＜0.05).Knockdown of DUXAP8 reduced proliferation,migration and invasion of SACC-LM cells,as well as the expression of EMT-related genes(P＜0.05).Multiple m6A modification sites of high confidence were found on DUXAP8.METTL3 was highly expressed in tumor tissues,more than other related genes(P＜0.05)and enzyme-encoding genes in SACC-LM cells(P＜0.05).METTL3 was found to function as a methyltransferase to regulate the expression of DUX-AP8,and downregulation of METTL3 inhibited prolifera-tion,migration and invasion of SACC-LM cells and partially reversed the promotion of these activities induced by DUX-AP8 overexpression(P＜0.05).Conclusion:METTL3-me-diated m6A modification upregulated DUXAP8 expression,which promotes the proliferation,migration and invasion of SACC cells.
