Objective Construction of an immune-tumor dual humanized mouse model to explore the role of targeting monoamine oxidase A(MAOA)in the immune microenvironment of prostate cancer.Methods Bioinformatics analysis was used to examine the relationship between MAOAhigh cancer associated fibroblasts(CAFs)and T cells in prostate cancer.Multiplex immunofluorescence was employed to analyze the relationship between stromal MAOA expression and CD8+T cells.An immune-tumor dual humanized mouse model was constructed for in vivo verification of the infiltration of CD8+T cells in response to the targeting of stromal MAOA.Results MAOA expression in the stroma was inversely proportional to the infiltration of CD8+T cells.Inhibiting MAOA expression in the stroma enhanced the infiltration of CD8+T cells in vivo,which may reflect suppression of the accumulation of collagen in the tumor microenvironment.Conclusions Stromal MAOA plays an important role in the immunosuppressive microenvironment of prostate cancer,and its inhibition may promote the infiltration of immune cells.MAOA inhibitors have therapeutic potential in immune combination therapy for patients with prostate cancer.

The prevalence and recurrence rate of depressive disorder are high, while the recognition and cure rate are low. Early intervention can improve the quality of life of patients with depression. In clinical practice, it has been found that psychological treatments can effectively improve the symptoms and prognosis of depression.Cognitive behavior therapy(CBT) has been widely used in the treatment of depression, however, its mechanisms are still unclear. In this paper, the neuroimaging studies of patients with depression before and after CBT were summarized, and the structural or functional changes of different brain regions in patients with depression before and after CBT were described. The findings suggest that CBT improved depressive symptoms by increasing gray matter volume, activation level, and functional connectivity strength in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, reducing activation levels in the amygdala and parahippocampal gyrus, and restoring abnormal brain network activity or functional connectivity. Larger gray matter volume in anterior cingulate gyrus and higher activation levels in hippocampus and amygdala before treatment can effectively predict the effect of CBT in depressed patients. In the future, machine learning could be combined with brain imaging data to more accurately predict the effectiveness of CBT in treating depression.
