Objective:To discuss the correlation of International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) pathological grading with 18F-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) parameters and serum total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) in prostate cancer, and assess the clinical value of PET/CT combined with tPSA in predicting the ISUP pathological grade of prostate cancer. Methods:The correlation of ISUP pathological grade with primary parameters of PET/CT images and serum tPSA of 117 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer at Shanxi Cancer Hospital from August 2018 to February 2023 and taken 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify the independent influencing factors for ISUP pathological grading of prostate cancer. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to predict the efficacy between the high and low ISUP grades for prostate cancer. Results:Of the 117 patients, 20 were in ISUP Group 1, 25 in Group 2, 18 in Group 3, 32 in Group 4, and 22 in Group 5. Of these, 63 were in the low-grade group (Groups 1-3) and 54 were in the high-grade group (Groups 4-5). The tumor long diameter was 3.10 (2.05, 4.25) cm, the prostate volume was 40.11 (33.13, 51.85) cm 3, the serum tPSA was 19.71 (12.25, 42.83) ng/ml, the prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) was 0.51 (0.31, 1.01) ng·ml -1·cm -3, the maximum standard uptake value of the lesion (SUVmax) was 15.24 (10.87, 22.03), and the tumor/spleen uptake ratio (TSR) was 1.61 (1.08, 2.15) in the 117 patients. The correlation analysis displayed that the SUVmax, TSR, and tPSA were positively correlated with ISUP groups ( r=0.640, 0.619, and 0.500, P<0.01). The differences among SUVmax, TSR, long diameter, tPSA, and PSAD were statistically significant when compared among the five ISUP groups ( H=48.98, 45.63, 26.82, 33.95, and 23.81, P<0.001). The differencesin serum tPSA ( z=5.19), PSAD ( z=4.64), long diameter ( z=3.19), SUVmax ( z=5.57), and TSR ( z=5.53) of the patients between the low-grade group and the high-grade group were statistically significant ( P<0.01). In multivariate analysis, TSR ( OR=4.172, 95% CI: 2.095-8.308, P<0.001) and the serum tPSA ( OR=1.042, 95% CI: 1.014-1.070, P<0.01) were independent influencing factors for ISUP grades. ROC analysis revealed that the area under the curve for the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT parameters SUVmax and TSR to predict low- or high-grade ISUP for prostate cancer was 0.800 (95% CI: 0.717-0.883) and 0.797 (95% CI: 0.713-0.881), respectively. Among the 70 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, the postoperative recurrence rate of high-grade ISUP patients was higher than that of low-grade patients (54.8% and 25.6%, χ 2=6.21, P<0.05). Conclusions:18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT has good application in predicting ISUP grading of prostate cancer. TSR and the serum tPSA are independent predictors for the pathological grade.

OBJECTIVE To compare the anti-hepatitis mechanisms of Abrus pulchellus subsp. cantoniensis (Hance) Verdc. (AC) and Abrus pulchellus subsp. mollis(Hance) Verdc. (AM). METHODS SD rats were randomly divided into blank group, AC- treated group, and AM-treated group, with each group consisting of 10 rats. The rats’ orbital venous blood was collected at 5, 15, 30 minutes, and 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 hours after gavage administration of 24 g/kg of the corresponding drug (calculated by crude drug) or water, respectively. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry technology was utilized to identify the prototype components present in the serum. The network pharmacology method was adopted to predict the anti-hepatitis active components, key targets, and signaling pathways of AC and AM. Additionally, molecular docking technology was utilized to verify the binding activity of the core active components with key targets. RESULTS A total of 35 prototype components migrating to the blood of AC and AM were identified in the serum of administered rats, among which 24 were common components. The active components in AC, such as acetylanguidine, physcion, soyasaponin A3 and soyasaponin Ⅰ, as well as those in AM, including vicenin 3, acetylanguidine,soyasaponin Ⅰ and schaftoside, all acted on key targets such as steroid receptor coactivator, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and protein kinase B1(Akt1). These components modulated pathways in cancer, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance, and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) -Akt pathway, thereby exerting anti-hepatitis effects. Furthermore, the binding energies between these active components and their key targets were all less than -5 kJ/mol. CONCLUSIONS There are differences in the active components of AC and AM against hepatitis, but their mechanisms of action are similar. Both may exert their anti-hepatitis effects through pathways in cancer, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance, and the PI3K-Akt pathway.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and prognostic survival of pembrolizumab combined with apatinib and chemotherapy in the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-negative advanced gastric cancer.Methods:Patients with HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer were selected from December 2019 to December 2022 as the study subjects. Forty-five patients who received chemotherapy therapy (fluorouracil+cisplatin) were randomly collected and included in control group, and 52 patients who were treated with pembrolizumab combined with apatinib were randomly selected and enrolled as observation group. The difference in short-term efficacy was compared. The levels of serum tumor markers and immune function (CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD4 +/CD8 +) were recorded. The long-term efficacy and adverse reactions of patients were compared. Measurement data conforming to the normal distribution were expressed as xˉ± s, and the mean comparison between groups was performed by independent sample t test. Chi-square test was used to compare the rate or composition ratio among enumeration data. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:At 6 months after treatment, the disease control rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group (78.85% (41/52) vs 57.78% (26/45)) ( χ2=5.01, P=0.025), but there was no statistical significance in objective response rate between groups (36.54% (19/52) vs 24.45% (11/45)) ( χ2=1.65, P=0.199). The levels of pepsinogen I, tissue polypeptide specific antigen, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 199 and CD8 + in both groups were reduced after treatment, and the levels were lower in observation group than those in control group ( t=6.06, 6.78, 4.68, 11.21, 3.45, all P<0.001). The levels of CD3 +, CD4 + and CD4 +/CD8 + were enhanced significantly in the two groups, and the observation group had higher levels after treatment ( t values were 2.10, 3.74, and 5.19; P values were 0.028, <0.001, and <0.001). After 1 year of follow-up, the survival rate in observation group with 59.62% (31/52) was significantly higher than 37.78% (17/45) in control group ( χ2=4.60, P=0.032). The progression-free survival time ((10.22±1.62) months vs (8.13±1.57) months, t=6.43, P<0.001) and overall survival time ((11.62±1.84) months vs (9.73±1.71) months, t=5.21, P<0.001) in observation group were significantly longer compared to control group. There were no statistical differences in the incidence rates of bone marrow suppression ( χ2=1.92, P=0.165), hand-foot syndrome ( χ2=3.47, P=0.062), gastrointestinal reaction ( χ2=0.32, P=0.574), hypertension ( χ2=0.94, P=0.333) and proteinuria ( χ2=2.39, P=0.122) between the two groups. Conclusion:Compared with chemotherapy, pembrolizumab combined with apatinib shows good short-term efficacy and long-term efficacy in patients with HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer.
