Objective:To develop a self-locked DNAzyme nanoprobe-based fluorescence amplification strategy for wash-free and ultrasensitive detection of breast cancer-derived small extracellular vesicles (sEV).Method:A DNAzyme self-locked probe was designed to recognize the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) specifically expressed on breast cancer-derived sEVs. Upon binding to EpCAM, the DNAzyme-lock structure was opened, restoring the DNAzyme cleavage activity. The activated DNAzyme then cyclically cleaved the RNA site on the substrate strand. Fluorescently labeled substrate strands were used to detect sEVs at varying concentrations, and the detection limit and linear range were determined.Results:The DNAzyme self-locked probe successfully identified breast cancer-derived sEVs and generated a fluorescent signal through cyclic cleavage. The proposed method achieved wash-free detection of sEVs, with the fluorescence intensity showing a strong linear correlation with sEV concentration ( R2=0.98). The linear detection range was 1.0×10 2-1.0×1.0 7 particles/μl, with a detection limit of 59 particles/μl. Conclusion:This study established a wash-free and highly sensitive strategy for quantifying breast cancer-derived sEVs, which provides a promising technical approach for the early diagnosis of cancer.

AIM:C57BL/6J mice were transplanted with fecal microbiota from a patient with maturity-onset diabetes of the young(MODY)or a healthy control.This study aimed to investigate the effects of fecal microbiota trans-plantation(FMT)on glucose and lipid metabolism,intestinal flora composition,and short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs)me-tabolism in mice,thereby providing an experimental foundation for understanding the role of gut microbiota in MODY.METHODS:A total of 36 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly allocated into three groups,including:control(CON)group(receiving PBS),normal individual-FMT(NF)group(intervened with normal human fecal microbiota)and MODY patient-FMT(MF)group(intervened with MODY patient fecal microbiota),and the mice were performed fecal microbio-ta,transplantation through oral gavage for 8 weeks.Glucose tolerance was assessed using an oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT),while insulin sensitivity was evaluated through an intraperitoneal insulin tolerance test(ITT).Blood biochemi-cal indicators were measured using ELISA,the composition of the gut microbiota was analyzed using 16S rRNA sequenc-ing,and the concentration of fecal short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs)was determined by gas chromatography-mass spec-trometry(GC-MS).RESULTS:The mice in MF group showed impaired glucose tolerance and reduced insulin sensitivi-ty.The FMT altered the composition of gut microbiota in mice,leading to significant differences in microbial diversity among groups.Specifically,the distribution of 18 bacterial species varied significantly among the three groups,with a no-table reduction in SCFA-producing bacteria observed in the MF group.Analyses of fecal SCFAs revealed that acetic acid levels were significantly lower in the MF group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The FMT reduces production of SCFAs by altering gut microbiota composition in mice,which was likely related to impaired glucose tolerance and decreased insulin sensitivity.

Purpose To investigate the predictive value of MRI-based peritumoral edema(PE)of lymph node(LN)metastasis burden in patient with invasive breast cancer.Materials and Methods A total of 213 patients in Sichuan Cancer Hospital with invasive breast cancer confirmed by pathology after surgery were enrolled retrospectively from September 2017 to February 2019.Based on the status and number of LN metastases proved by axillary surgery pathology,all patients were divided into high-burden LN metastasis group(n=47 cases,total number of metastatic LN greater than 2)and low-burden LN metastasis group(n=166 cases,total number of metastatic LN less than or equal to 2).T2WI features,including PE type and PE degree,were analyzed.On DCE-MRI,MRI features of breast cancer were analyzed based on BI-RADS.The predictive value of T2WI features and MRI features for LN metastasis burden was assessed by univariate analysis,and the statistically significant features identified by univariate analysis were further subjected to multivariate Logistic regression analysis to establish a prediction model.The model's performance for LN metastasis burden prediction was evaluated via receiver operating characteristic curve,and the predictive metrics were calculated based on the Youden index.Results The rate of high-burden LN metastasis was 22.1%(47/213).The results of univariate analysis showed that PE degree(OR=18.70,P＜0.001),PE type(OR=16.00,P＜0.001),tumor maximum diameter(OR=1.40,P=0.025),and tumor minimum diameter(OR=2.01,P=0.003)were predictive features for high-burden LN metastasis.The multivariate regression analysis showed that the peritumoral edema features,including PE degree(OR=8.02,P＜0.001)and PE type(OR=5.53,P=0.001)were independent predictive features for high-burden LN metastasis.The area under the curve of the final predictive model was 0.842.The diagnostic sensitivity was 0.766,the specificity was 0.861,the positive predictive value was 0.610,and the negative predictive value was 0.929.Conclusion The PE on preoperative MRI have good predictive performance for LN metastasis burden prediction in patient with invasive breast cancer,particularly for low-burden LN metastasis.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) in Bozidun Kirghiz township of Xinjiang Aksu region, and to explore the risk factors for the occurrence of HUA in the local area.Methods:A cross-sectional survey study was conducted by randomly selecting 9 villages in Bozidun Kirgiz Township by the whole-group sampling method and questionnaire were distributed to the households. The questionnaire included: demographic information, history of past illness, personal history, and all subjects were measured for height, weight, blood pressure, abdominal circumference, etc. The diagnostic of HUA if the serum uric acid (SUA) level >420 μmol/L in men or >360 μmol/L in women. The incidences of HUA in different age, sex, food type and life style behavior were analyzed. T test, non-parametric test and Chi-square test were used to analyze the differences among the groups, and logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors. Results:①A total of 2 138 subjects were surveyed, among which 68 patients were with HUA, the prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirghiz township, Aksu region in the general population was 3.18%(68/2 138); the prevalence rate in men was 4.60%(45/978), 45 patients were identified; and the prevalence rate in women was 1.98%(23/1 160), 23 patients were identified. The peak age of HUA in male and female patients was 51~60 years old. ②The prevalence of HUA was lower in those who consumed dairy products ( χ2=6.91, P=0.017), nuts ( χ2=8.43, P=0.038) and eggs ( χ2=7.38, P=0.023), and lower in those who consumed more. Different intake of cereals ( χ2=0.87, P=0.647), meat( χ2=0.82, P=0.662), vegetables and fruits( χ2=5.22, P=0.073) had no effect on the prevalence of HUA.③In terms of different life behaviors, the prevalence of HUA in men who had been smoking was higher than those who had never smoked (57.78%, 28.89%, 13.33%, χ2=8.16, P=0.017). In the relationship between drinking and HUA, the prevalence rates of male always drinking, ever drinking and never drinking were 80.00%, 11.11% and 3.89%, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.67, P=0.038). ④Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that high BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC were risk factors for the occurrence of HUA [ OR(95% CI)=1.13(1.04, 1.23), 1.03(1.00,1.05),1.39(1.00, 1.93), 1.03(1.02, 1.05), 1.27(1.07, 1.49), all P<0.05]. Conclusion:The prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirgiz township in Aksu prefecture of Xinjiang is lower than that in other areas with continental climate. High BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC count are risk factors for the development of HUA .

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the clinical features and endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient (EUS-PPG) in patients with cirrhosis.Methods:A total of 148 patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who underwent EUS-PPG measurement at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from March 15, 2022 to June 20, 2023 were selected. The clinical data of patients collected before EUS-PPG measurement were analyzed. Variations in the EUS-PPG across different clinical data subgroups were analyzed. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to explore the independent factors influencing EUS-PPG.Results:The EUS-PPG was significantly elevated in patients exhibiting red signs (16.62±5.33 mmHg VS 13.44±5.34 mmHg, t=3.616, P<0.001), gastroesophageal varices (15.78±5.30 mmHg VS 9.70±4.77 mmHg, t=4.247, P<0.001), hepatic encephalopathy (20.83±7.52 mmHg VS 14.92±5.35 mmHg, t=2.606, P=0.010), thrombocytopenia (15.66±5.39 mmHg VS 13.29±5.83 mmHg, t=2.136, P=0.034), hypoproteinemia (16.13±5.86 mmHg VS 14.12±5.03 mmHg, t=2.230, P=0.027), and an increased international normalized ratio (16.25±6.00 mmHg VS 14.40±5.11 mmHg, t=2.022, P=0.045). Conversely, the EUS-PPG was significantly reduced in patients with a history of splenectomy and devascularization (13.17±5.88 mmHg VS 15.73±5.34 mmHg, t=-2.379, P=0.019). The EUS-PPG in patients with varying degrees of ascites (no VS slight VS moderate or severe: 13.40±5.48 mmHg VS 15.90±5.49 mmHg VS 16.69±5.17 mmHg, F=5.188, P=0.007) and different Child-Pugh classifications (A VS B VS C: 14.07±5.05 mmHg VS 15.69±5.74 mmHg VS 17.64±5.99 mmHg, F=3.066, P=0.049) increased gradually. Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that red signs ( β=2.44, t=2.732, P=0.007), gastroesophageal varices ( β=4.45, t=2.990, P=0.003), ascites ( β=1.75, t=2.368, P=0.019), and hepatic encephalopathy ( β=5.82, t=2.644, P=0.009) were independent factors for the elevated EUS-PPG. Conclusion:There is a significant correlation between EUS-PPG and the clinical features related to the severity of cirrhotic portal hypertension, which indicates the feasibility of EUS-PPG in evaluating cirrhotic portal hypertension.
