Objective To explore the short-term efficacy and safety of programmed death receptor-1(PD-1)antibody combined with chemoradiotherapy in early high-risk nasal extranodal natural killer/T cell lymphoma(ENKTCL,Nomogram modified risk index ≥1).Methods This study was a prospective phase Ⅱclinical study.A total of 20 patients with stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ nasal ENKTCL initially treated in the Affiliated Hospi-tal of Guizhou Medical University from June 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects.They were given 3 cycles of PD-1 antibody+P-Gemox(pegaspargase+gemcitabine+oxaliplatin)regimen induced immunochemotherapy and 3 cycles of PD-1 antibody concurrent immunoradiotherapy,14 d/cycle.The com-plete response(CR)rate after 3 cycles of induced immunochemotherapy,CR rate after treatment,objective re-sponse rate(ORR)after 3 cycles of induced immunochemotherapy and ORR after comprehensive treatment,occurrence of adverse reactions and plasma Epstein-Barr virus DNA copy number were observed.Results Af-ter 3 cycles of induction immunochemotherapy,the CR rate was 35.0%(7/20)and ORR was 90.0%(18/20).After the concurrent immunoradiotherapy,the CR rate was 95.0%(19/20)and ORR was 100.0%(20/20).The adverse reactions were mainly the grade 1/2.the immune-related adverse reactions included 9 ca-ses of grade 1/2 hypothyroidism(45.0%),4 cases of grade 1 capillary vessel hyperplasia(20.0%),1 case(5.0%)of grade 2 infusion reaction,and no immune myocarditis occurred.All 7 cases of positive EBV DNA turned to negative after 3 cycles of induced immunochemotherapy.Conclusion PD-1 antibody combined with P-Gemox in the radiotherapy of early high-risk ENKTCL has a high short-term remission rate with good tol-erance for treatment.

Purpose:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) often spreads to the liver, necessitating surgical treatment for CRC liver metastasis (CRLM). Iron-deficiency anemia is common in CRC patients and is associated with fatigue and weakness. This study investigated the effects of iron-deficiency anemia on the outcomes of surgical resection of CRLM.
Methods:
This population-based, retrospective study evaluated data from adults ≥20 years old with CRLM who underwent hepatic resection. All patient data were extracted from the 2005–2018 US National (Nationwide) Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. The outcome measures were in-hospital outcomes including 30-day mortality, unfavorable discharge, and prolonged length of hospital stay (LOS), and short-term complications such as bleeding and infection. Associations between iron-deficiency anemia and outcomes were determined using logistic regression analysis.
Results:
Data from 7,749 patients (representing 37,923 persons in the United States after weighting) were analyzed. Multivariable analysis revealed that iron-deficiency anemia was significantly associated with an increased risk of prolonged LOS (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.30–3.30), unfavorable discharge (aOR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.83–3.19), bleeding (aOR, 5.05; 95% CI, 2.92–8.74), sepsis (aOR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.04–2.46), pneumonia (aOR, 2.54; 95% CI, 1.72–3.74), and acute kidney injury (aOR, 1.71; 95% CI, 1.24–2.35). Subgroup analyses revealed consistent associations between iron-deficiency anemia and prolonged LOS across age, sex, and obesity status categories.
Conclusion
In patients undergoing hepatic resection for CRLM, iron-deficiency anemia is an independent risk factor for prolonged LOS, unfavorable discharge, and several critical postoperative complications. These findings underscore the need for proactive anemia management to optimize surgical outcomes.

Objective To observe the effect of RAW264.7 cells on calcium sparks in a insulin resistance model of C2C12 cells induced by sodium palmitate.Methods C2C12 cells and RAW264.7 cells were co-cultured to simulate the in vivo state of skeletal muscle.C2C12 cells were cultured in high-glucose medium containing 2%horse serum to induce differentiation into mature myotubes,and then divided into 5 groups:control(RAW264.7 cells),co-culture of C2C12 with RAW264.7,C2C12 alone,co-culture of C2C12 with RAW264.7 plus sodium palmitate(PA),and C2C12 alone with PA.PA of 5 mmol/L was used to induce insulin resistance in C2C12 cells for 24 hours.Revived and expanded RAW264.7 cells were evenly added to C2C12 cells and co-cultured for two days.Subsequently,cells were maintained in modified suspension culture,and both cell types were loaded with the calcium ion fluorescent probe Fluo-4 AM.Finally,Paraxanthine was used to induce intracellular calcium sparks,which was captured and recorded under a laser confocal microscope.Results No significant calcium signal change was observed in the control group.Co-cultured C2C12 cells exhibited rapid and pronounced calcium signal changes,whereas calcium signals in C2C12 cells cultured alone increased slowly throughout the observation period without a sharp decline.The peak calcium signal was reached significantly faster in co-cultured C2C12 cells than that in C2C12 cells cultured alone(P<0.001).With PA induction,calcium signal changes in C2C12 cells were not markedly altered,while distinct calcium fluctuations were still observed in co-cultured C2C12 cells,and the peak calcium signal was reached significantly faster in co-cultured C2C12 cells than that in C2C12 cells cultured alone(P<0.001).Conclusion RAW264.7 cells enhance the dynamic responsiveness of calcium signaling in both normal and PA-stimulated C2C12 cells.

Monkeypox is a viral zoonotic disease,and there is currently a lack of safe and effective vac-cines against the monkeypox virus.Therefore,screening and developing vaccine candidates is of signifi-cant practical importance.With the rapid advancement of molecular biology and plant genetic engineer-ing,plant bioreactors offer promising potential for producing vaccine proteins due to their advantages,in-cluding safety,cost-effectiveness,and scalability.In this study,we focused on the monkeypox protein B6R.The recombinant expression plasmid pFolia40108-B6R-Fer was successfully constructed using am-plification,enzyme digestion,and flexible linker tandem ferritin technology.A complete transient expres-sion system in Nicotiana benthamiana and a purification system for the recombinant monkeypox protein were established.The optimal expression time was determined to be 12-14 days,with a final purified pro-tein concentration of approximately 1 mg/mL and a yield of 0.85 mg/kg fresh weight.The purified B6R-Fer recombinant protein self-assembled into spherical virus-like particles(VLPs)with an average particle size of 24 nm.The B6R-Fer recombinant protein from this study shows promising potential for use in the development and screening of plant-derived monkeypox vaccine candidates.
