[摘 要] 目的:探讨年轻乳腺癌独特的DNA甲基化特征,筛选与预后相关的甲基化位点,构建并验证预后预测模型,并通过多组学整合及关键蛋白验证评估其临床价值。方法:收集癌症基因组图谱(TCGA)数据库中的乳腺癌样本DNA甲基化及临床数据,筛选年轻乳腺癌特有的甲基化位点。采用随机森林、LASSO回归及单因素和多因素Cox比例风险回归分析构建预后模型。使用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线、校准曲线和一致性指数(C-index)评估模型性能,并比较高、低风险组间的多组学特征差异,在独立队列中通过免疫组化法检测模型关键基因LAMA5的蛋白表达,分析其与预后的关系。结果:年轻乳腺癌相较于老年乳腺癌,在启动子区域(尤其是CpG岛)呈现显著低甲基化特征。通过多步骤差异分析获得3 489个年轻乳腺癌特有的甲基化位点,经Cox比例风险回归筛选出12个与总生存期(OS)独立相关的位点,其中启动子区、基因体区和基因间区位点各4个。基于筛选出的12个甲基化位点构建的预测模型,在TCGA训练集中显示出良好的区分度,高风险组总生存期显著更差(P = 0.002 5),5、8和10年OS预测曲线下面积(AUC)达0.88~0.94。多组学分析显示,高风险组丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号通路激活,TP53基因突变频率更高,雌激素受体α蛋白表达较低。将TP53突变状态及雌激素受体1(ESR1)mRNA表达水平等关键多组学指标纳入模型,构建综合列线图,其预测效能进一步提升。组织芯片验证显示,模型关键基因LAMA5蛋白表达阴性患者的OS更差(P = 0.046),且富集于三阴性乳腺癌,与模型高风险组的临床病理特征一致。结论:整合启动子和非启动子区域信息的基于12个甲基化位点的模型可用于年轻乳腺癌患者的预后分层。联合年龄、TP53突变及ESR1 mRNA表达水平构建的综合列线图显示出较单一甲基化模型更高的预测效能。

Intentional tooth replantation (ITR) is an advanced treatment modality and the procedure of last resort for preserving teeth with inaccessible endodontic or resorptive lesions. ITR is defined as the deliberate extraction of a tooth; evaluation of the root surface, endodontic manipulation, and repair; and placement of the tooth back into its original socket. Case reports, case series, cohort studies, and randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of ITR in the retention of natural teeth that are untreatable or difficult to manage with root canal treatment or endodontic microsurgery. However, variations in clinical protocols for ITR exist due to the empirical nature of the original protocols and rapid advancements in the field of oral biology and dental materials. This heterogeneity in protocols may cause confusion among dental practitioners; therefore, guidelines and considerations for ITR should be explicated. This expert consensus discusses the biological foundation of ITR, the available clinical protocols and current status of ITR in treating teeth with refractory apical periodontitis or anatomical aberration, and the main complications of this treatment, aiming to refine the clinical management of ITR in accordance with the progress of basic research and clinical studies; the findings suggest that ITR may become a more consistent evidence-based option in dental treatment.

Objective:To investigate the effect of PIK3CA mutations on the tumor immune microenvironment in Luminal breast cancer and evaluate the potential of Alpelisib-loaded pH-responsive polymer micelles in modulating the tumor immune microenvironment.Methods:PIK3CA mutations in breast cancer were analyzed using bioinformatics tools.A mouse xenograft model of Luminal breast cancer harboring a PIK3CA mutation was established,and alterations in the tumor immune microenvironment were examined using mass cytometry(CyTOF).During the period from August 2004 to December 2008 in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital,tissue biopsies of 62 Luminal breast cancer patients in the BRCA cohort were collected Study the relationship between PIK3CA mutations and tumor immune microenvironment at the organizational level.Alpelisib-loaded polymer micelles(Alpelisib@MSPM)were synthesized,characterized,and evaluated for thera-peutic efficacy in Luminal breast cancer with PIK3CA mutations.Results:PIK3CA is one of the most frequently mutated genes in breast can-cer,with the highest prevalence in Luminal subtypes.CyTOF analysis demonstrated that PIK3CA mutations contribute to a tumor immun-osuppressive microenvironment in xenografts.Multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemistry revealed that PIK3CA-mutated tumors exhib-ited more infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs)and less infiltration of CD8? T cells.The synthesized Alpelisib-loaded pH-re-sponsive polymer micelles had an average size of approximately 127 nm.Treatment with Alpelisib and Alpelisib@MSPM reduced tumor growth in mice with PIK3CA-mutated Luminal breast cancer.Notably,the proportion of MDSCs decreased,whereas CD8? T cell infiltration in-creased significantly,with the more pronounced effect observed in the Alpelisib@MSPM treatment group.Conclusions:PIK3CA mutations drive the formation of a tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment in Luminal breast cancer.Targeted Alpelisib delivery via pH-respons-ive polymer micelles significantly enhances therapeutic efficacy in PIK3CA-mutated breast cancer.

[摘 要] 无义介导的mRNA降解(NMD)作为一种质量控制机制,可降解含有过早终止密码子(PTC)的异常mRNA,参与生长发育、调节免疫功能,且与肿瘤微环境密切相关。NMD对肿瘤有抑制或促进的双重作用:一方面,NMD通过下调促癌蛋白表达、抑制促癌信号通路和应激微环境等途径抑制肿瘤进展;另一方面,NMD通过抑制抑癌基因的表达、癌细胞凋亡和肿瘤新抗原的产生促进肿瘤进展。此外,NMD并非降解所有携带PTC的mRNA,PTC出现的位置可能决定NMD触发或逃逸,由于各基因的高频突变区域各不相同,因此不同基因发生PTC突变后是否触发NMD则具有不同的倾向性。随着二代测序技术的成熟与普及,基因突变筛查已成为临床诊疗常规手段,这使得从多基因层面探究NMD的规律与意义成为可能。因此,在进一步了解NMD的功能及其机制的基础上,通过高通量测序与计算机算法评估NMD水平,有望在临床工作中扬长避短地发挥NMD潜在的临床价值,助力个性化临床诊治与精准医疗的发展。

Objective:To investigate the correlation between RYR1 gene and the development of gastric cancer,as well as the mechanism of RYR1 in promoting the progression of gastric cancer.Methods:We analyzed gastric cancer data from TCGA and conducted high-throughput targeted sequencing and transcriptome sequencing on 81 gastric cancer tissue samples at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute&Hos-pital(TJMUCH)from December 2010 to December 2012.We collected clinicopathological data,compared the correlation between RYR1 mutations and expression levels,and analyzed the impact of RYR1 on the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.Additionally,we explored the underlying molecular mechanism to study its role in promoting the development of gastric cancer by generating stable cell lines overex-pressing RYR1.Results:In TCGA gastric cancer patients,the mutation rate of RYR1 in Asian population was higher than that in others popula-tion(12.68%vs.8.13%).In gastric cancer patients from TJMUCH,RYR1 mutations ranked ninth in frequency,with a mutation rate of 33.33%.Mutations in RYR1 were negatively correlated with RYR1 expression(P=0.006 9,P<0.000 1).Patients with high RYR1 expression had significantly worse overall survival than those with low RYR1 expression(P=0.009 0,P=0.042 0).Overexpression of RYR1 promoted prolifera-tion,migration,invasion and reduced apoptosis of gastric cancer cell lines.Moreover,RYR1 overexpression was associated with decreased sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs in gastric cancer cells.Inhibiting RYR1-mediated calcium over-release could suppress malignant beha-viors and reverse chemoresistance.Conclusions:RYR1 had a high mutation rate in Asian gastric cancer patients and a significantly negative correlation with RYR1 mRNA levels.High RYR1 expression serves as a novel prognostic predictive marker for gastric cancer.RYR1 overex-pression promoted malignant progression of gastric cancer and chemoresistance by increasing the release of calcium ions from the endo-plasmic reticulum.Thus,RYR1 inhibition can reduce the proliferation,migration,and invasion of gastric cancer cells and reverse chemores-istance,which highlights potential combination therapies for gastric cancer.

Objective: To investigate the application of single-molecule PCR (SM-PCR) in the detection of plasma ctDNA for the treat-ment of patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: In total, 30 patients diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma were enrolled between June 2017 and May 2018. ctDNA fragments of the target genes (EGFR, KRAS, BRAF, ALK, HER2, and TP53) from the blood samples were enriched by SM-PCR, and DNA libraries were prepared. Finally, a high-throughput sequencing was performed. The EGFR detection of tumor tissue samples was performed using real-time fluorescence PCR based on the amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) and consistency in the results of EGFR mutation detection in the plasma and tissue was compared. Results:The results of both the methods were consistent (Kappa=0.867, P<0.001). The McNemar's test also indicated that the results are not statistically different (P=0.500). Conclusions: SM-PCR can be used for the detection of plasma EGFR mutations. The target detection sites are more comprehensive and multiple mutations can be detected at the same time. Results of the analysis are more precise and can be absolutely quantified.
