Lance-Adams syndrome (LAS) is a chronic neurological sequela secondary to cerebral hypoxic events, characterized by action or intention myoclonus, which can severely impact patient′s quality of life. A case of a 41-year-old male patient with LAS who was initially hospitalized due to trauma was reported in this article. During hospitalization, he experienced airway obstruction leading to respiratory and circulatory disturbance. After successful resuscitation, he developed frequent facial and limb myoclonus, accompanied by dysarthria, dysphagia, and ataxia. The myoclonus was triggered by emotional stress, voluntary movements, or external stimuli. Despite the use of multiple conventional antiseizure medications including valproate (1 g/d), clonazepam (6 mg/d), and levetiracetam (2 g/d), the therapeutic effect remained unsatisfactory. Upon adding the selective α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor antagonist perampanel (initial dose 2 mg/d, increased to 4 mg/d after a week) to the basic treatment regimen, the patient′s myoclonus symptoms significantly improved and he regained independent walking ability after 2 weeks. At the 6-month follow-up, myoclonus remained stably controlled, with the modified Rankin Scale score maintained at 3, indicating sustained improvement in quality of life. This case adds evidence to the clinical practice of treating LAS with perampanel. For LAS patients who respond poorly to conventional medications, perampanel may be an effective treatment option.

G-protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs)are a type of superfamily of transmembrane receptors,involved in multiple signaling pathways,and playing an important role in physiological processes such as cell migration and me-tabolism.T lymphocytes are important immune cells that participate in the inflammatory process and play an impor-tant role cellular immunity.To date,multiple GPCRs have been found to be expressed in T lymphocytes and partici-pate in T cell immunomodulatory processes.This paper reviews the role of GPCRs in T lymphocyte immunomodulation.

Objective To explore the potential categories of psychosocial adaptation in psoriasis patients and their differences in social alienation.Methods Using a cross-sectional survey design,convenience sam-pling was used to select 376 psoriasis patients from multiple hospitals in Shandong Province from September to December 2022.Participants completed the general information questionnaire,Psychosocial Adaptation to Illness Scale(PAIS-SR),Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-Ⅱ(AAQ-2),and General Alienation Scale(GAS).Latent profile analysis was performed using Mplus8.0 software to identify psychosocial adaptation patterns of psoriasis patients,and SPSS25.0 was used to compare social alienation differences among different adaptation groups.Results Psoriasis patients could be divided into two latent profiles:moderate psychosocial adaptation group(31.38％)and low psychosocial adaptation group(68.62％).Medical payment method,dis-ease recurrence,psoriasis subtype,disease duration,family history,skin lesion exposure,and AAQ-2 scores were identified as main influencing factors(P＜0.05).Significant differences in total GAS scores were found between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion The psychosocial adaptation of psoriasis patients shows het-erogeneity and could be classified into two latent profiles.Targeted interventions should be implemented to improve psychosocial adaptation levels.

Targeting cGAS-STING pathway is a promising strategy in tumor treatment. The pattern recognition receptor cGAS identifies dsDNA and catalyzes the formation of the second messenger 2'3'-cGAMP, activating the downstream interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines through the adaptor protein STING. Notably, in tumor immune microenvironment, key components of cGAS-STING pathway are transferred among neighboring cells. The intercellular transmission under these contexts serves to sustain and amplify innate immune responses while facilitating the emergence of adaptive immunity. The membrane-based system, including extracellular vesicles transport, phagocytosis and membrane fusion transmit dsDNA, cGAMP and activated STING, enhancing the immune surveillance and inflammatory. The membrane proteins, including specific protein channel and intercellular gap junctions, transfer cGAMP and dsDNA, which are crucial to regulate immune responses. And the ligand-receptor interactions for interferons transmission amplifies the anti-tumor response. This review elaborates on the regulatory mechanisms of cell-to-cell communications of cGAS-STING pathway in tumor immune microenvironment. We further explore how these mechanisms modulate immunological processes and discuss potential interventions and immunotherapeutic strategies targeting these signaling cascades.

Objective:To investigate the impact of the interval period between biopsy and MR examination on tumor detection and extraprostatic extension (EPE) assessment for prostate cancer (PCa) using multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI).Methods:The study was cross-sectional and retrospectively included 130 patients with PCa who underwent RP and preoperative systematic biopsies followed by mpMRI between January 2021 and December 2022 in the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to interval following biopsy (group A,<3 weeks, 31 cases; group B, 3-6 weeks, 67 cases; group C,>6 weeks, 32 cases). The percentages of hemorrhage volume in the total prostate were drawn on T 1WI and calculated. The junior, senior and expert radiologists independently localized the index lesions and calculated the accuracy for tumor detection, in addition to assessing the probabilities of EPE according to EPE grade. The correlation between the hemorrhage extent and interval was analyzed using the Spearman correlation coefficient. The accuracy for tumor detection was compared using χ2 test among groups. The diagnostic performance of the radiologists for EPE prediction was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic curve, and the differences between the corresponding area under the curve (AUC) were compared using the DeLong test. Results:The percentage of hemorrhage was correlated with the interval between biopsy and MR examination ( r=-0.325, P<0.001). The detection accuracy of junior radiologist was 83.9% (26/31), 76.1% (51/67), and 78.1% (25/32) in group A, B and C, respectively; no differences were observed in the detection accuracy among three groups ( χ2=0.76, P=0.685). The detection accuracy of senior radiologist was 83.9% (26/31), 80.6% (54/67), and 71.9% (23/32) in 3 groups with no differences ( χ2=1.53, P=0.464). The detection accuracy of expert radiologist was 80.6% (25/31), 77.6% (52/67), and 93.8% (30/32) with no differences ( χ2=3.95, P=0.139). The AUC (95% CI) for predicting EPE were 0.830 (0.652-0.940), 0.704 (0.580-0.809), 0.800 (0.621-0.920) in the group A, B and C for junior radiologist; 0.876 (0.708-0.966), 0.768 (0.659-0.863), 0.896 (0.736-0.975) for senior radiologist; and 0.866 (0.695-0.961), 0.813 (0.699-0.895), 0.852 (0.682-0.952) for expert radiologist, respectively. No differences were observed among the subgroups in each radiologist ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The interval period does not significantly affect the detection accuracy and EPE assessment of PCa using mpMRI. There is probably no necessity for prolonged intervals following systematic biopsy to preserve the clarity of MRI interpretation for PCa.

Targeting cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase(cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes(STING)pathway is a promising strategy for tumor treatment.The pattern recognition receptor cGAS identifies dsDNA and catalyzes the formation of a second messenger 2′3′-cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate(cGAMP),activating the downstream interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines through the adaptor protein STING.Notably,in tumor immune microenvironment,key components of cGAS-STING pathway are transferred among neighboring cells.The intercellular transmission under these contexts serves to sustain and amplify innate immune responses while facilitating the emergence of adaptive immunity.The membrane-based system,including extracellular vesicles transport,phagocytosis and membrane fusion transmit dsDNA,cGAMP and activated STING,enhances the immune surveillance and inflammatory responses.The membrane proteins,including a specific protein channel and intercellular gap junctions,transfer cGAMP and dsDNA,which are crucial to regulate immune responses.The ligand-receptor interactions for interferon transmission amplifies the anti-tumor response.This review elaborates on the regulatory mechanisms of cell-to-cell communications of cGAS-STING pathway in tumor immune microenvironment,explores how these mechanisms modulate immunological processes and discusses potential interventions and immunotherapeutic strategies targeting these signaling cascades.
