Pasteurella multocida and Aeromonas hydrophila are rare human pathogens,and zoonotic infections caused by bites of big cats are rarely reported.This paper reported the first case of wound infection caused by Pas-teurella multocida and Aeromonas hydrophila after tiger bites in China.Strain identification and drug susceptibility testing were conducted by BD PHOENIXTM100 automatic microbial analyzer.The patient was discharged with a good prognosis after wound debridement,surgical intervention and combined antimicrobial treatment.This paper aims to advise emergency physicians to consider the possibility of co-infection of Pasteurella multocida and Aero-monas hydrophila when encountering rare big cat bites.

Purpose:
This study aimed to investigate the effect of the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) dependent ferroptosis on cisplatininduced Sertoli cell injury.
Materials and Methods:
A cisplatin exposure mouse model was established by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin in our study. TM4 cell lines was used for in vitro study. Ferroptosis was detected according to metabolomic analysis and a series of assays, including malondialdehyde, glutathione, and glutathione disulfide concentration detection, 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and BODIPY 581/591 C11 probe detection, and transmission electron microscope imaging. Key ferroptosis-related genes were identified via transcriptomic analysis, western blot and immunohistochemistry. The m6A modification was demonstrated via m6A RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays. Immune cell infiltration was detected by mass cytometry, and verified by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence.
Results:
Ferroptosis, but not other types of programmed cell death, is a significant phenomenon in cisplatin-induced testis damage and Sertoli cell loss. Ferroptosis induced by cisplatin in Sertoli cell/TM4 cell is GPX4 independent but is regulated by SLC7A11 and ALOX12. Both SLC7A11 and ALOX12 are regulated via m6A dependent manner by METTL3. Furthermore, overexpressed ALOX12-12HETE pathway may result in macrophage polarization and inflammatory response in cisplatin exposure testis.
Conclusions
Cisplatin-induced Sertoli cell injury via ferroptosis and promoted ferroptosis in an m6A dependent manner. m6A modification of both SLC7A11 and ALOX12 mRNA could result in ferroptosis in our in vitro model. Further, overexpressed ALOX12 can cause more production of 12-HETE, which may be responsible for testis inflammation caused by cisplatin.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of thalidomide,arsenic trioxide,dexamethasone and ascorbic acid(TADA)regimen in the treatment of early relapsed multiple myeloma(MM)patients(tumor progression within 12 months after initial treatment).Methods This study retrospectively analyzed 62 patients on TADA chemotherapy regimen and 57 patients on bortezomib,lenalidomide,dexamethasone(velcade,revlimid,dexamethasone,VRD)chemotherapy regimen for multiple myeloma(MM)in early stage relapse,who visited the Department of Hematology of Yanbian University Hospital between 2008 and 2020.We collected the general data profile,follow-up data during 3 courses of treatment,and laboratory data of all patients before and after chemotherapy.The efficacy of the patients was assessed by overall response rate(ORR)and complete response rate(CRR),and the occurrence of adverse reactions was collected for statistical analysis.Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted for the TADA and VRD groups under different renal function conditions,cytogenetically different risk stratification,and different ISS scenarios;the prognosis of patients on the TADA chemotherapy regimen was analyzed.Results There were no statistical differences in age,gender,immunochemical subtypes,ISS staging and high-risk FISH indicators between the two groups(P>0.05).After chemotherapy,the haemoglobin and serum albumin of patients in the TADA group were significantly lower than those in the VRD group,whereas the percentage of blood calcium,blood β2 microglobulin,creatinine and bone marrow plasma cells were significantly higher than those in the VRD group(P<0.05).In addition,the incidence of peripheral neuropathy was significantly lower than that in the VRD group(P<0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference in other adverse reactions(P>0.05).Compared with those in the VRD group,the overall survival(OS)(X2=8.201,P=0.004)and progression free survival(PFS)(x2=7.568,P=0.006)survival curves were statistically significant in the TADA group.In the TADA group OS(X2=3.924,P=0.048)in patients with normal and impaired renal functionat the time of enrolment and PFS(x2=9.008,P=0.003),OS(x2=9.330,P=0.002)and PFS(x2=16.090,P<0.001)in ISS stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ and ISS stage Ⅲ at enrolment,OS(X2=10.149,P<0.001)in high-risk FISH and non-high-risk patients at enrolment and PFS(X2=11.286,P<0.001)survival curve results showed statistically significant differences.Conclusion The TADA regimen has better efficacy and safety in patients with early recurrence of MM.Renal function,ISS staging and FISH stratification are important factors affecting patients'prognosis.

Regardless of the underlying etiology, renal fibrosis is the final histological outcome of progressive kidney disease. Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is an ideal and reproducible experimental rodent model of renal fibrosis, which is characterized by tubulointerstitial inflammatory responses, accumulation of extracellular matrix, tubular dilatation and atrophy, and fibrosis. The magnitude of UUO-induced renal fibrosis is experimentally manipulated by the species chosen, animal age, and the severity and duration of the obstruction, while relief of the obstruction allows the animal to recover from fibrosis. The pathogenesis of renal fibrosis is complex and multifactorial and is orchestrated by activation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS), oxidative stress, inflammatory response, transforming growth factor beta 1-Smad pathway, activated myofibroblasts, cell death (apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and necroptosis), destruction of intracellular organelles, and signaling pathway. The current therapeutic approaches have limited efficacy. Inhibition of RAS and use of antioxidants and antidiabetic drugs, such as inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 and dipeptidyl peptidase-4, have recently gained attention as therapeutic strategies to prevent renal scarring. This literature review highlights the state of the art regarding the molecular mechanisms relevant to the management of renal fibrosis caused by UUO.
