This report described a case of hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) with neonatal onset. The infant presented with facial petechiae, jaundice, progressive thrombocytopenia, and persistent bleeding at puncture sites shortly after birth. Plasma ADAMTS13 activity was<1%. Whole-exome sequencing identified heterozygous variants in ADAMTS13: c.3121C>T and c.1869delT, inherited from the father and mother, respectively. The infant improved following exchange transfusion and phototherapy. Post-discharge, prophylactic fresh frozen plasma infusion was administered every 3-4 weeks. At the 2-year follow-up, no abnormalities were observed. This case highlights the importance of early recognition and intervention in neonates with unexplained thrombocytopenia, severe non-hemolytic jaundice, and anemia to ensure survival and improve prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-1-3p on mitophagy in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells and the related mechanisms.Methods:The differentially expressed miRNAs in ESCC were screened using the GEO database. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to measure miR-1-3p expression in normal esophageal epithelial cells (HET-1A) and ESCC cell lines (TE1, KYSE30, KYSE150, KYSE410, Eca109). Bioinformatics tools were utilized to predict target genes of miR-1-3p, subcellular localization was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The targeting relationship between miR-1-3p and SLC7A11 was validated using dual-luciferase reporter assay. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by CCK8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Furthermore, experimental validation demonstrated that overexpression of SLC7A11 rescued the presence of the miR-1-3p/SLC7A11 axis. Confocal microscopy was used to detect changes in mitochondrial autophagic lysosomes, while transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe mitophagy and morphological alterations. Western blot was conducted to evaluate the expression of autophagy-related proteins LC3 and P62. Flow cytometry was used to measure mitochondrial membrane potential and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Immunohistochemistry was applied to assess SLC7A11 expression in 133 ESCC patient tissues and 115 normal esophageal epithelial tissues. The correlation between SLC7A11 expression level and clinicopathological features was analyzed. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox proportional hazard regression models were used for multivariate analysis.Results:The expression of miR-1-3p in ESCC cells was significantly lower than that in HET-1A cells ( P＜0.05). SLC7A11 was a target gene of miR-1-3p. Transfection of miR-1-3p mimic inhibited the proliferation of ESCC cells. CCK-8 assay results showed that the proliferative capacity of KYSE30 and KYSE410 cells in the miR-1-3p mimic group (absorbance values: 2.88±0.24 and 2.88±0.18, respectively) was significantly lower than that in the miRNA mimic negative control (NC) group (3.94±0.27, P＜0.001; 4.20±0.21, P＜0.001). Meanwhile, the proliferative capacity of KYSE30 and KYSE410 cells in the miR-1-3p mimic+SLC7A11-overexpression (OE) group (absorbance values: 3.57±0.15 and 3.60±0.13, respectively) was significantly higher than that in the miR-1-3p mimic +empty vector (EV) group (2.54±0.10, P＜0.001, 2.36±0.16, P＜0.001). Additionally, transfection of miR-1-3p mimic promoted apoptosis. Flow cytometry results demonstrated that the apoptosis rates of KYSE30 and KYSE410 cells in the miR-1-3p mimic group [(9.22±0.05)% and (6.55±0.37)%, respectively] were significantly higher than those in the miRNA mimic NC group [(0.81±0.17)%, P＜0.001); (1.04±0.12)%, P＜0.001]. Conversely, the apoptosis rates of KYSE30 and KYSE410 cells in the miR-1-3p mimic + SLC7A11-OE group [(0.73±0.04)% and (1.19±0.05)%, respectively] were significantly lower than those in the miR-1-3p mimic+EV group [(9.83±0.41)%, P＜0.001); (6.09±0.17)%, P＜0.00)]. MiR-1-3p mimic downregulated SLC7A11 protein expression and the LC3Ⅱ/LC3I ratio ( P＜0.05), upregulated P62 protein expression ( P＜0.05), this phenomenon can be rescued by overexpressing SLC7A11 ( P＜0.05). Additionally, miR-1-3p mimic increased ROS levels and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (JC-1 aggregate/monomer ratio), this phenomenon can be rescued by overexpressing SLC7A11 ( P＜0.05). SLC7A11 expression was higher in ESCC tissues compared to normal esophageal epithelial tissues ( P＜0.001), and SLC7A11 serves as an independent prognostic factor in ESCC ( HR=2.15, 95% CI: 1.27-3.65, P=0.004). Conclusion:miR-1-3p inhibits mitophagy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by targeting SLC7A11.

Objective To explore the abnormal expression of the MT-ND family in pan-cancers and its prognostic value.Methods Transcriptome expression and clinical data of 33 cancers were downloaded from the TCGA database,thereby analyzing the expression differences of the MT-ND family in tissuesof different types of cancers and normal tissues.The prognostic role of the MT-ND family in pan-cancers was explored by univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.Results The expression of the MT-ND family was upregulated in the kidney chromophobe,acute myeloid leukemia and thymoma,and downregulated in the remaining tumors.The expression of the MT-ND family was associated with the overall survival rate of different types of cancers.In addition,the MT-ND family were significantly correlated with the immune invasion subtypes,and were correlated with stromal cell invasion and tumor cell stemness to varying degrees.The expression of MT-ND4 was downregulated in brain lower grade glioma,which was a protective factor for prognosis;while the expression of MT-ND4 in thymoma was upregulated,which was a risk factor for prognosis.Conclusion Pan-cancer analysis has confirmed that the MT-ND family can predict the tumor prognosis,which provides new ideas and strategies for the precision treatment and prognostic management of cancer.

Aim To investigate the effect of dihydro-myricetin(DMY)on Ang Ⅱ-induced cardiac hypertro-phy in mice and the underlying mechanisms.Methods Fifty mice were randomly divided into control group,Ang Ⅱ group,Ang Ⅱ+catopril 12.0 mg·kg-1·d-1 group,AngⅡ+DMY 100 mg·kg-1·d-1 group,and Ang Ⅱ+DMY 200 mg·kg-1·d-1 group,with 10 mice in each group.The control mice were given saline by gavage,the drug intervention group was given DMY,and the positive drug group was given captopril;the mice in all groups except the control group were in-jected subcutaneously with Ang Ⅱ 1.0mg·kg-1·d-1.After four weeks,heart weight/body weight(HW/BW)and left ventricular weight/body weight(LVW/BW)ratios were calculated.The mRNA ex-pression of the fetal genes atrial natriuretic factor(ANF),brain natriuretic peptide(BNP),β-myosin heavy chain(β-MHC),adenosine triphosphate 5β-subunit(ATP 5β)and uncoupling protein 2(UCP2)were monitored,and the morphological changes of car-diac tissue were observed.Secondly,the creatine ki-nase isoenzyme(CK-MB),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),free fatty acids(FFA)and lactic acid in ser-um were investigated.Lastly,the expression of AMP-activated proteinkinase(AMPK),peroxisome prolifer-ator-activated receptor alpha(PPAR-α)and T-cell nu-clear factor cytoplasmic 4(NFATc4)protein expres-sion were also detected.The Ang Ⅱ-induced H9C2 cardiomyocyte hypertrophy model was established and treated with the AMPK inhibitor compound C.The mRNA of ANF,BNP,β-MHC and the protein expres-sion of AMPK/PPAR-α were analyzed.Results DMY intervention significantly reduced HW/BW and LVW/BW in mice,fetal genes ANF,BNP,β-MHC and UCP2 mRNA expression decreased,whereas ATP 5 β mRNA increased,and the degree of hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes was alleviated.In addition,the serum levels of CK-MB,LDH,FFA and lactic acid were re-duced in DMY treated groups.Finally,DMY upregu-lated the protein expression of P-AMPK,AMPK and PPAR-α,and downregulated protein expression of NFATc4.In the Ang Ⅱ-induced cardiomyocyte hyper-trophy model,DMY pretreatment reduced the mRNA expression of fetal genes(ANF,BNP,β-MHC).However,when AMPK was inhibited by compound C,the expression of these fetal genes rebounded,accom-panied by decreased protein levels of AMPK and PPAR-α.Conclusions DMY can improve Ang Ⅱ-in-duced myocardial hypertrophy in mice by ameliorating disorders of glycolipid metabolism and increasing ener-gy supply to cardiomyocytes,and its mechanism is re-lated to the activation of the AMPK/PPAR-α pathway and the inhibition of NFATc4 expression.

GPR126, also known as ADGRG6, is one of the most deeply studied aGPCRs. Initially, GPR126 was thought to be a receptor associated with muscle development and was primarily expressed in the muscular and skeletal systems. With the deepening of research, it was found that GPR126 is expressed in multiple mammalian tissues and organs, and is involved in many biological processes such as embryonic development, nervous system development, and extracellular matrix interactions. Compared with other aGPCRs proteins, GPR126 has a longer N-terminal domain, which can bind to ligands one-to-one and one-to-many. Its N-terminus contains five domains, a CUB (complement C1r/C1s, Uegf, Bmp1) domain, a PTX (Pentraxin) domain, a SEA (Sperm protein, Enterokinase, and Agrin) domain, a hormone binding (HormR) domain, and a conserved GAIN domain. The GAIN domain has a self-shearing function, which is essential for the maturation, stability, transport and function of aGPCRs. Different SEA domains constitute different GPR126 isomers, which can regulate the activation and closure of downstream signaling pathways through conformational changes. GPR126 has a typical aGPCRs seven-transmembrane helical structure, which can be coupled to Gs and Gi, causing cAMP to up- or down-regulation, mediating transmembrane signaling and participating in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. GPR126 is activated in a tethered-stalk peptide agonism or orthosteric agonism, which is mainly manifested by self-proteolysis or conformational changes in the GAIN domain, which mediates the rapid activation or closure of downstream pathways by tethered agonists. In addition to the tethered short stem peptide activation mode, GPR126 also has another allosteric agonism or tunable agonism mode, which is specifically expressed as the GAIN domain does not have self-shearing function in the physiological state, NTF and CTF always maintain the binding state, and the NTF binds to the ligand to cause conformational changes of the receptor, which somehow transmits signals to the GAIN domain in a spatial structure. The GAIN domain can cause the 7TM domain to produce an activated or inhibited signal for signal transduction, For example, type IV collagen interacts with the CUB and PTX domains of GPR126 to activate GPR126 downstream signal transduction. GPR126 has homology of 51.6%-86.9% among different species, with 10 conserved regions between different species, which can be traced back to the oldest metazoans as well as unicellular animals.In terms of diseases, GPR126 dysfunction involves the pathological process of bone, myelin, embryo and other related diseases, and is also closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors such as breast cancer and colon cancer. However, the biological function of GPR126 in various diseases and its potential as a therapeutic target still needs further research. This paper focuses on the structure, interspecies differences and conservatism, signal transduction and biological functions of GPR126, which provides ideas and references for future research on GPR126.

Gender recognition based on the analysis of fingerprint residue can assist investigators in narrowing down the scope of investigation and play an important role in the field of criminal investigation.This study established a quantitative analysis method for lipid substances in fingerprints based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS).Fatty acids in fingerprints were methylated using sulfuric acid methanol derivatization reagent(7%,V/V),the extraction reagent was dichloromethane-methanol(1∶1,V/V)solution,the reaction temperature was 70℃and the heating time was 45 min.Quantitative analysis of the relative content of 23 kinds of fatty acids and squalene in fingerprints residue by different genders was conducted,and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA)was used to reduce the dimensionality of the quantitative results.A total of 13 kinds of components in the fingerprints were selected to maximize the difference in relative content between male and female fingerprints.Three machine learning models,including binary logistic regression(BLR),support vector machine(SVM)and random forest(RF),were further used as feature variables to classify the gender of fingerprints.The classification performance of each model was compared through five indicators,and it was found that the most suitable model for binary classification of fingerprint gender was SVM model.The results showed that the SVM fingerprint residual gender binary classification model established based on the relative content data of 13 kinds of lipid substances in fingerprints achieved a classification accuracy of 90%and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)value of 0.98.This study provided a new research method for detecting lipid components in fingerprints and a methodological basis for gender recognition of fingerprints.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of combined lienal polypeptide injection therapy in the treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia（MPP）in children aged 3 to 14 years old in multiple clinical centers.Methods:A randomized，controlled，multi-center clinical study design was adopted.A total of 240 hospitalized children aged 3 to 14 years old with MPP from 7 hospitals from September 1，2023 to January 31，2024 were included.According to the severity of pneumonia，they were divided into the mild MPP group with 80 cases and the severe MPP/refractory MPP（SMPP/RMPP）group with 160 cases，and then randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group at a ratio of 1 ∶1，using the random number table method.After screening，subjects entered a treatment period of 5 to 7 days.The control group was treated with azithromycin，while the experimental group was treated with azithromycin plus lienal polypeptide injection .The recovery of lung CT，length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，whether mild cases developed into severe or refractory cases，duration of hormone use，use of intravenous immunoglobulin（IVIG），bronchoscopy treatment，and immune function were observed between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy of lienal polypeptide injection.Adverse events after medication，vital signs，blood routine，urine routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，and electrocardiogram were observed to evaluate the safety. Results:A total of 231 subjects have completed the trial in the 7 hospitals，including 118 cases in the experimental group and 113 cases in the control group.Main observation index：the rate of lung CT aggravation in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（2.6% vs 15.3%， P<0.01），and the difference was statistically significant.Secondary indexes：there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，the rate of cases of plastic bronchitis（PB）found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（0 vs 18.8%， P=0.03），and the difference was statistically significant.Among the mild MPP（72 cases），there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and the improvement rate of lung CT between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，compared with the control group，the rate of cases developing into SMPP/RMPP in the experimental group was less（24.3% vs 48.6%， P=0.03），and the difference in IgG before and after treatment was small［0.53（-0.04，1.18）g/L vs 1.33（0.48，2.25）g/L， P=0.01］.Among the SMPP/RMPP cases（159 cases），the rate of cases of PB found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（0 vs 20%， P=0.04），and the rate of cases with aggravated lung CT in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（1.3% vs 19.5%， P<0.01），and the improvement rate of lung CT in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group（88.8% vs 75.3%， P=0.03），with statistically significant differences.There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.Two cases in the experimental group developed rashes，which improved after the drug was discontinued.There were no serious adverse reactions such as abnormal vital signs like dyspnea and cyanosis due to the use of lienal polypeptide injection.There were no obvious changes in blood routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，electrocardiogram，and urine routine values before and after medication compared with the baseline. Conclusion:The combined use of lienal polypeptide injection in the treatment of MPP in children can reduce the probability of the transformation from mild cases to SMPP/RMPP，reduce the rate of aggravation of the image findings，promote the absorption of lung inflammation，reduce the rate of PB found under bronchoscopy，and has good safety.
