Objective To investigate the cellular characteristics in the development of retinal tumors induced by MY-CN overexpression,and to find the key proteins that play an important role in this process.Methods T-MYCN Y1 and Y2 cells cultured in vitro for 1 year and 2 years were selected for the experiment.The WERI-RB-1 cell line obtained from Shanghai Cell Bank of Chinese Academy of Sciences was taken as the mature retinoblastoma(RB)control(WERI-Rb-1 group).Untreated normal human retinal tissues were used as the control group.Cells were inoculated into a 24-well plate at a density of 1 × 104 cells per well,and the cell morphology was observed under a microscope and images were collected.Cell count was performed on the 4th,8th and 12th day after inoculation.Immunofluorescence staining was employed to de-tect the expression of the proliferation marker Ki67 and cone cell marker L/M opsin in each group.Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was utilized to assess the expression of MYCN,CCNB1,CDK1,SYK,and RXRγ in cells across all groups.Proteomics analysis was performed to detect variations in protein expression profiles across groups and to identify key regulatory genes.Subsequently,cell growth and proliferation were evaluated after OTX2 knockdown by lentiviruses.Results The growth curve showed that there were(59.17±4.01)× 104 cells in the T-MYCN Y1 group,(85.14±4.54)× 104 cells in the T-MYCN Y2 group and(100.73±1.99)× 104 cells in the WERI-Rb-1 group on the 12th day of in-vitro culture(all P＜0.05).Compared with those in the control group,the positive cell rates of Ki67 and L/M opsin increased in T-MYCN Y1,T-MYCN Y2 and WERI-Rb-1 groups(all P＜0.001).The relative expression levels of MYCN mR-NAs in T-MYCN Y1,T-MYCN Y2 and WERI-Rb-1 groups were significantly higher than those in the control group(all P＜0.001).The relative expression levels of CCNB1 and CDK1 mRNAs also increased significantly in the three groups,com-pared with those in the control group(all P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the relative expression of SYK mRNAs between T-MYCN Y1 and control groups(P＞0.05).The relative expression level of RXRγ mRNAs was significantly higher in the T-MYCN Y1 group than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The relative expression levels of SYK and RXRγmRNAs in T-MYCN Y2 and WERI-Rb-1 groups were significantly increased,compared with those in the control group(all P＜0.05).GO enrichment analysis showed that these differentially-expressed proteins were enriched into protein complex assembly and mitochondria pathways.KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the enriched pathways of these differential-ly-expressed proteins included carbon metabolism,metabolic pathway and fatty acid degradation.Both proteomics and Western blot analyses indicated that OTX2 expression levels were the highest in the WERI-Rb-1 group,second highest in the T-MYCN Y2 group,and the lowest in the T-MYCN Y1 group(all P＜0.01).According to qRT-PCR,the expression levels of OTX2 mRNAs in T-MYCN Y1,T-MYCN Y2 and WRI-Rb-1 cells with OTX2 knockdown were lower than those in empty vec-tor controls(all P＜0.05).The growth curve of cells showed that after knocking down OTX2 in the three groups of cells,both cell growth and proliferation ability decreased significantly(all P＜0.001).Conclusion During the development of retinal tumors induced by MYCN overexpression,cells gradually exhibit characteristics similar to WERI-Rb-1 cells,which are a typical RB cell line.OTX2 plays an important role in MYCN amplification or the growth and proliferation of highly ex-pressed RB.Targeting OTX2 may become a new research direction for the treatment of RB.

Autoimmune pancreatitis is a special type of chronic pancreatitis that can lead to abnormal pancreatic exocrine function in patients. Autoimmune pancreatitis comorbid with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency has a complex pathogenesis， and there is limited research on this topic， leading to the lack of understanding of such patients in clinical practice. This article introduces the epidemiology of autoimmune pancreatitis， briefly describes the pathogenesis of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency caused by autoimmune pancreatitis， and summarizes the various detection methods for pancreatic exocrine function， nutritional assessments， lifestyle management， and drug therapy， in order to strengthen the understanding of autoimmune pancreatitis comorbid with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency and improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

Objective:To investigate the effect and safety of pancreatic extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (P-ESWL) in treating the chronic pancreatitis (CP) patients with main pancreatic duct (MPD) stones and to analyze the influencing factors of success of lithotripsy.Methods:Clinical data of 132 patients with CP complicated with MPD stones treated with P-ESWL in the Department of Gastroenterology, Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 103 males and 29 females, aged (50.3±16.9) years. The times of P-ESWL, the success rate of stone fragmentation, the necessity of combining endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatograhy (ERCP), clearance rate of MPD stones, and incidence of post-P-ESWL complications (acute pancreatitis, abdominal hematoma, infection, steinstrasse, perforation, etc.) were evaluated. The factors influencing the success rate of lithotripsy were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression.Results:All patients underwent P-ESWL treatment, with (2.23±0.82) times of P-ESWL per person. The success rate of stone fragmentation was 87.1%(115/132). Of 107 CP patients (81.1%, 107/132) were treated with their first P-ESWL. Of 12 patients (9.1%, 12/132) underwent single P-ESWL, and 120 (90.9%, 120/132) underwent P-ESWL combined with ERCP. There were 95 cases (72.0%, 95/132) with effective removal of stones, and 62 (47.0%, 62/132) with complete removal of stones. Post-P-ESWL complications included eight cases (6.1%, 8/132) of acute pancreatitis, two (7.6%, 2/132) of steinstrasse complicated with acute pancreatitis and one (0.8%, 1/132) of abdominal hematoma. No infection or perforation occurred. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher CT value of stones ( OR=1.239, 95% CI: 1.040-1.477, P=0.017) was associated with the lower success rate of stone fragmentation. Conclusion:P-ESWL is safe and effective in treating patients with CP complicated with MPD stones. The CT value of stones is a risk factor for the success rate of P-ESWL.
