Trophoblast cells serve as the foundation for placental development. We analyzed published multiomics sequencing data and found that trophoblast cells highly expressed RRS1 compared to primitive endoderm and epiblast. We used HTR-8/SVneo cells for further investigation, and Western blot and immunofluorescence staining confirmed that HTR-8/SVneo cells highly expressed RRS1. RRS1 was successfully knocked down in HTR-8/SVneo cells using siRNA. Using IncuCyte S3 live-cell analysis system based on continuous live-cell imaging and real-time data, we observed that proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities were all significantly decreased in RRS1-knockdown cells. RNA-seq revealed that knockdown of RRS1 affected the gene transcription, and upregulated pathways in extracellular matrix organization, DNA damage response, and intrinsic apoptotic signaling, downregulated pathways in embryo implantation, trophoblast cell migration, and wound healing. Differentially expressed genes were enriched in diseases related to placental development. Consistent with these findings, human chorionic villus samples collected from spontaneous abortion cases exhibited significantly reduced RRS1 expression compared to normal controls. Our results highlight the functional importance of RRS1 in human trophoblasts and suggest that its deficiency contributes to early pregnancy loss.

Objective To explore the effects of dapnetin's regulation of STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway on immune inflammatory response in sepsis rats.Methods In this study,80 male Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were selected and randomly divided into four groups,20 rats in the sham-operation group,the remaining 60 mice with sepsis were constructed according to cecal ligation puncture(CLP)method and were intraperitoneally injected with different doses of dapnetin.They were divided into no-dapnetin model group(0 mg/kg),low-dose group(2.5 mg/kg),and high-dose group(5 mg/kg),with 20 mice in each group.The model group and sham-operation group were intraperitoneally injected with 0.1％DMSO.The survival rate of rats in each group after 72 h of CLP modeling was observed.Lung,kidney,liver and spleen tissues were collected for histopathological analysis.Serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)were detected by ELISA,T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry,and STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway protein expression was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with sham-operation group,the survival rate of rats in model group was reduced(P＜0.05),each organ tissue injury was significant,serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)levels were increased(P＜0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were decreased(P＜0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were increased(P＜0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were downregulated(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,dapnetin in high-dose group improved the survival rate of rats(P＜0.05),the injury of all organs and tissues was reduced,and the level of serum inflammatory factors was decreased(P＜0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were increased(P＜0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were decreased(P＜0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Dapnetin can improve the immune inflammatory response of sepsis rats by regulating STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To determine the karyotype of a patient with mosaicism complex structural aberration of chromosome 18.Methods:A male patient with a 2-year history of infertility presented at the Center of Reproductive Medicine of the Third Hospital of Peking University in October 2019 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the patient was collected. Peripheral blood sample was taken for chromosomal karyotyping, copy number variation (CNV) analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay. Semen sample was taken for single sperm CNV analysis. Results:The patient was found to have a karyotype of mos 47, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23)[84]/46, XY, del(18)(q21q23)[9]/48, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23)×2[6]/47, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23×2)[1]. ish 47, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23)[84]/46, XY, del(18)(q21q23)[9]/48, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23)×2[6]/47, XY, del(18)(q21q23), + r(18)(q21q23×2)[1]del(18)(q21q23)( D18Z1+, 18p+, 18q+, WCP18+ ), r(18)(q21q23)(WCP18+ ), r(18)(q21q23×2)(WCP18+ ). No pathogenic CNV was identified. Sequencing of 20 single sperms showed that 1 sperm was normal, 1 had yielded no result, 9 had harbored del(18q), 7 had harbored dup(18q)×2, and 2 had harbored dup(18q)×3. The dup/del fragments had both spanned approximately 33 Mb. Conclusion:It is rare for carriers of complex structural and numerical abnormalities of chromosome 18 to have a normal phenotype. Based on the accurate cytogenetic and molecular analyses and the single sperm CNV analysis, the influence of the aberrant karyotype on the gametogenesis may be evaluated.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of diabetes in the elderly aged ≥60 years in Liaoning Province from 2017 to 2019 and analyze the impact of blood glucose control on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality.Methods:A survey was conducted in the elderly aged ≥60 years in Liaoning from 2017 to 2019 to collect the information about the prevalence of diabetes and other chronic diseases in the diabetes patients. The mortality of the enrolled subjects was investigated in September 2023. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate the association between blood glucose control in the elderly with diabetes and the risks of all-cause mortality and CVD mortality.Results:The crude prevalence of diabetes in the elderly aged ≥60 years was 20.2% (2 014/9 958) in Liaoning from 2017 to 2019, and the standardized prevalence rate was 19.9%. The prevalence rates of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and overweight/obesity in the diabetes patients were 77.0%, 51.7%, and 67.5% respectively. The median follow-up time was 5.5 years, and the all-cause mortality and CVD mortality rates in the diabetes patients were 244.3/10 000 person-years and 142.9/10 000 person-years, respectively. The results of the Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that compared with non-diabetic individuals, diabetes patients had an increased risk of all-cause mortality by 1.68 times [hazard ratio ( HR)=1.68, 95% CI: 1.44-1.94] and an increased risk of CVD mortality by 1.56 times ( HR=1.56, 95% CI: 1.29-1.89). The differences in risks of all-cause mortality and CVD mortality between the diabetes patients with normal fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels and people without diabetes were not significant (all P>0.05). The failure to meet either the FPG or HbA1c target increased the risk of all-cause mortality (all P<0.05). For individuals who failed to meet the HbA1c target, there was an increased risk of CVD mortality (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The comorbidity rate of chronic diseases was higher in the elderly with diabetes than in the elderly without diabetes in Liaoning. Elderly diabetes patients can benefit from good blood glucose control.
