Gorham-Stout disease(GSD) is a rare osteolytic disorder characterized by spontaneous and progressive osteolysis, along with abnormal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, with no new bone formation. We present a case of a 15-year-old female admitted due to " recurrent right leg pain for 5 years, 11 months after undergoing right femoral fracture surgery". Through comprehensive integration of the patient's clinical phenotype, laboratory tests, imaging findings, pathological examinations, and molecular biological test results, GSD was considered highly likely. A multidisciplinary treatment approach was conducted, including a combination of zoledronic acid and sirolimus to inhibit osteolysis, along with rehabilitation training and orthopedic intervention, providing a personalized and comprehensive treatment strategy.

ObjectiveTo explore the target of Erzhiwan in reducing myocardial injury in ovariectomized mice through non-targeted myocardial metabolomics combined with experimental verification. MethodsOvariectomized mouse model was selected, 40 female C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, estrogen group(estradiol valerate, 1.3×10-4 g·kg-1), Erzhiwan low and high dose groups(3.12, 9.36 g·kg-1), with 8 mice in each group. Each administration group was given the corresponding dose of Erzhiwan by gavage, and the sham operation group and model group were given equal volume of distilled water by gavage for 12 weeks. Echocardiography was used to detect cardiac function, hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe myocardial morphological changes, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to detect the levels of estrogen, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP), hypersensitive troponin T(hs-TnT), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C), interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α). The non-targeted metabolomics of mouse myocardium were analyzed by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbital trap high-resolution mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS), and the differential metabolites and corresponding metabolic pathways were obtained. The mRNA expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K) and protein kinase B(Akt) in mouse myocardial tissues were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(Real-time PCR), and the protein expression levels of PI3K, Akt, phosphorylated(p)-Akt were detected by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group, the model group showed abnormal cardiac function, increased myocardial fiber space, cardiomyocyte atrophy, sarcoplasmic aggregation, and occasional dissolution or rupture of muscle fiber, the level of estrogen in the serum was decreased, the levels of NT-proBNP, hs-TnT, IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α, TG, TC and LDL-C were increased, and the level of HDL-C was decreased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Erzhiwan could increase the level of estrogen, improve the abnormal cardiac function, reduce the pathological injury of myocardial tissue, decrease the levels of myocardial injury markers(NT-proBNP, hs-TnT) and inflammatory factors(IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α), decrease the levels of TG, TC, LDL-C, and increased the level of HDL-C(P<0.01). The results of non-targeted myocardial metabolomics showed that 31 of the 162 differential metabolites between the model group and sham operation group were significantly adjusted after administration of Erzhiwan, which were mainly glycerol phospholipid metabolites. Pathway enrichment results showed that Erzhiwan mainly affected glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway, PI3K-Akt pathway, cyclic guanosine monophosphate(cGMP)-protein kinase G(PKG) pathway and other metabolic pathways. Compared with the sham operation group, the levels of phosphatidylcholine(PC, 11 types) and phosphatidylethanolamine(PE, 5 types) in mouse myocardial tissue of the model group were increased(P<0.05, P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K and p-Akt were decreased(P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the levels of PC(11 types) and PE(5 types) were decreased(P<0.05, P<0.01) in myocardial tissue of Erzhiwan group, the mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K and p-Akt were elevated(P<0.01). ConclusionErzhiwan can alleviate the pathological injury of myocardium in ovariectomized mice, improve the abnormal cardiac function, improve lipid metabolism disorder, and reduce the levels of myocardial injury markers and inflammatory factors, which involves a number of signaling and metabolic pathways in the heart, among which glycerophospholipid metabolism pathway and PI3K/Akt pathway may have key roles.

Objective To investigate the effects of m6A methylation modification and changes in oxidative stress levels on the progression of colorectal cancer(CRC)in Apemin/+mice with normal and high-fat diets.Methods C57BL/6J mice and Apcmin/+mice were fed with a normal or high-fat diet(60%fat)for 2(S group),6(M group),or 12 weeks(L group),respectively.Food intake,body mass,and the size,number,and volume of small intestinal polyps and colon tumors were then measured.Protein expression levels of the cancer markers Ki-67 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen in colon tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining and the serum levels or activities of the antioxidant enzymes catalase,reduced glutathione,and lipid peroxide malondialdehyde were detected using appropriate kits.mRNA expression levels of m6A methylation-related enzymes in colon tissues were detected by RT-qPCR and total levels of m6A methylation modification in colon tissues were detected.Results(1)Apcmin/+mice showed rapid tumor growth from the early to middle stages of cancer.Tumor proliferation from the middle to late stages of cancer was slowed in mice fed a normal diet,while a high-fat diet promoted the further development of cancer.(2)Decreased m6A methylation levels and enhanced antioxidant capacity may have delayed advanced tumor development in Apcmin/+mice fed a normal diet.(3)In contrast,a high-fat diet may have promoted the sustainable development of CRC by increasing the total level of m6A methylation,while the enhanced antioxidant capacity may have been insufficient to resist the promoting effect of m6A methylation on CRC.Conclusions A high-fat diet may promote the advancement of CRC compared with a normal diet by affecting m6A methylation modification.Both normal and high-fat diets enhanced the antioxidant capacity,suggesting that antioxidant effects may initiate self-protection mechanisms during cancer progression.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism by which SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1-intronic transcript 1(SOS1-IT1)affects enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)protein expression in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2.Methods Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)and overexpression plasmid were used in Ishikawa and RL95-2 cell lines to knock down and overexpress SOS1-IT1.The mechanism of EZH2 expression regulation was studied using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results The expression of SOS1-IT1 and EZH2 genes was positively correlated in endometrial cancer tissues.Knocking down SOS1-IT1 significantly reduces the expression of EZH2,inhibited the proliferation and migration of Ishikawa and RL95-2 cells,and could reduced the acetylation of histone H3 at position 27(H3K27)and the enrichment of CREB binding protein(CBP)in the EZH2 gene promoter region.Overexpression of SOS1-IT1 could increased the expression of EZH2 and enhance the acetylation of H3K27 and the enrichment of CBP.CBP could bind to SOS1-IT1 RNA,and this binding ability was weakened when CBP was knocked down.Conclusion SOS1-IT1 can promote the expression level of EZH2 in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2 by regulating the acetylation modification level of the EZH2 gene promoter region,thereby affecting the proliferation and migration ability of endometrial cancer cells.

Objective:To investigate the effect of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in assisting neonates with complex congenital heart diseases (CHD) and the survival rate of the patients.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was made on 22 newborns with complex CHD assisted by ECMO during the perioperative period in Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from January 2018 to June 2024.There were 19 males and 3 females in the newborns included, with an average age of (10.4±8.7) days (range: 1-26 days) and an average weight of (3.1±0.3) kg.Complex CHD included total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in 9 cases (40.9%), interrupted aortic arch and coarctation in 8 cases (36.4%), transposition of great arteries in 3 cases (13.6%), double outlet right ventricle in 1 case (4.5%) and cardiac tumor in 1 case (4.5%).The patients were divided into the <5 d group, 5-12 d group, and >12 d group according to the duration of ECMO support.Data were compared using the t-test or χ2 test. Results:There were 8 cases (36.4%) successfully weaned from ECMO support and 6 cases (27.3%) survived.ECMO support was used routinely in 15 cases (68.2%), and for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in 7 cases (31.8%).The duration of ECMO support was (5.9±3.7) days.There were no statistically differences in age, weight, gender, disease composition, operation time, cardiopulmonary bypass time, cross-clamp time, assistant time, blood routine, liver and kidney function and other biochemical indicators, preoperative cardiac ejection fraction value, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein and other infection indicators between the death group and the survival group (all P>0.05).The highest lactate values 24 hours before [(8.1±5.4) mmol/L] and after ECMO support [(10.5±7.1) mmol/L] in the survival group were significantly lower than those in the death group [(18.7±9.2) mmol/L, (21.3±8.6) mmol/L] ( t=2.606, P=0.018; t=2.729, P=0.013).It was found that the survival rate was 0/9 (0) in the <5 d group, 6/12 (50.0%) in the 5-12 d group, and 0/1 (0) in the >12 d group.The survival rate of the 5-12 d group was the highest, which was significantly higher than that of the <5 d group ( χ2=6.300, P=0.012). Conclusions:ECMO support is an effective treatment for severe circulatory failure in neonates with complex CHD in the perioperative period.The highest lactate levels 24 hours before and after ECMO support affect the survival rate.Patients receiving 5-12 d ECMO support can achieve the highest survival rate.
