Objective To explore the molecular mechanism by which SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1-intronic transcript 1(SOS1-IT1)affects enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)protein expression in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2.Methods Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)and overexpression plasmid were used in Ishikawa and RL95-2 cell lines to knock down and overexpress SOS1-IT1.The mechanism of EZH2 expression regulation was studied using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results The expression of SOS1-IT1 and EZH2 genes was positively correlated in endometrial cancer tissues.Knocking down SOS1-IT1 significantly reduces the expression of EZH2,inhibited the proliferation and migration of Ishikawa and RL95-2 cells,and could reduced the acetylation of histone H3 at position 27(H3K27)and the enrichment of CREB binding protein(CBP)in the EZH2 gene promoter region.Overexpression of SOS1-IT1 could increased the expression of EZH2 and enhance the acetylation of H3K27 and the enrichment of CBP.CBP could bind to SOS1-IT1 RNA,and this binding ability was weakened when CBP was knocked down.Conclusion SOS1-IT1 can promote the expression level of EZH2 in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2 by regulating the acetylation modification level of the EZH2 gene promoter region,thereby affecting the proliferation and migration ability of endometrial cancer cells.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) load in different lymphocyte subsets, as well as clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients with hematologic malignancies experiencing EBV reactivation. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples from patients were collected. B, T, and NK cells were isolated sorting with magnetic beads by flow cytometry. The EBV load in each subset was quantitated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Clinical data were colleted from electronic medical records. Survival status was followed up through outpatient visits and telephone calls. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 25.0. RESULTS: A total of 39 patients with hematologic malignancies were included, among whom 35 patients had undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The median time to EBV reactivation was 4.8 months (range: 1.7-57.1 months) after allo-HSCT. EBV was detected in B, T, and NK cells in 20 patients, in B and T cells in 11 patients, and only in B cells in 4 patients. In the 35 patients, the median EBV load in B cells was 2.19×10⁴ copies/ml, significantly higher than that in T cells (4.00×10³ copies/ml, P <0.01) and NK cells (2.85×10² copies/ml, P <0.01). Rituximab (RTX) was administered for 32 patients, resulting in EBV negativity in 32 patients with a median time of 8 days (range: 2-39 days). Post-treatment analysis of 13 patients showed EBV were all negative in B, T, and NK cells. In the four non-transplant patients, the median time to EBV reactivation was 35 days (range: 1-328 days) after diagnosis of the primary disease. EBV was detected in one or two subsets of B, T, or NK cells, but not simultaneously in all three subsets. These patients received a combination chemotherapy targeting at the primary disease, with 3 patients achieving EBV negativity, and the median time to be negative was 40 days (range: 13-75 days). CONCLUSION In hematologic malignancy patients after allo-HSCT, EBV reactivation commonly involves B, T, and NK cells, with a significantly higher viral load in B cells compared to T and NK cells. Rituximab is effective for EBV clearance. In non-transplant patients, EBV reactivation is restricted to one or two lymphocyte subsets, and clearance is slower, highlighting the need for prompt anti-tumor therapy.

Objective:To study the expression of SPOP in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)and its effect on proliferation,apoptosis and cycle of AML cells.Methods:RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of SPOP mRNA in bone marrow samples of patients with newly diagnosed AML and normal controls.The stable overexpression of SPOP in AML cell lines THP-1 and U937 were constructed by liposome transfection.The effect of SPOP on cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8,and the effect of SPOP on apoptosis and cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry.The expressions of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and apoptotic protein Bax,Caspase3 were detected by Western blot.Results:The median expression level of SPOP mRNA in normal control group was 0.993 1(0.6303,1.433),while that in AML group was 0.522 1(0.242 2,0.723 7).The expression level of SPOP in AML group was significantly lower than that in normal control group(P＜0.001).After the overexpression of SPOP,the proportion of apoptotic cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 10.9％±0.3％and 4.6％±0.15％,which were higher than 8.9％±0.3％and 3.0％±0.30％in the Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).The expression of Caspase3 in U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 1.154±0.086 and 1.2±0.077,which were higher than 1 in Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).The ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 in U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 1.328±0.057 and 1.669±0.15,which were higher than 1 in Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).In the cell proliferation experiment,the number of cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group were both slightly lower than those in the Empty Vector group,but the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).In the cell cycle experiment,the proportion of G1cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group were both slightly higher than those in the Empty Vector group,but the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion:SPOP can promote the apoptosis of leukemic cells,and its mechanism may be related to down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression and up-regulation of Bax and Caspase3 expression.

Objective To analyze the correlation between triglyceride glucose index (TyG) combined with different obesity indexes and new-onset ischemic stroke (IS) in 10 years in prediabetes population in Luzhou,Sichuan through cohort study. Methods A total of 2551 residents who participated in the epidemiological survey in Luzhou in 2011 and were diagnosed as having prediabetes were enrolled. According to the quartiles of baseline TyG-waist circumference (WC),TyG-waist to height ratio (WtHR),TyG-body mass index (BMI),and TyG-waist to hip ratio (WHR),they were divided into the 1st,2nd,3rd,and 4th quartiles groups (Q1,Q2,Q3,and Q4 groups). The incidence of new-onset IS in each group in 10 years was analyzed. The relationships between TyG-WC,TyG-WtHR,TyG-WHR and new-onset IS were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results Among the 2551 prediabetes subjects enrolled in the study,123 died of various causes during the 10 years of non-intervention follow-up,with a mortality of 4.8％;142 had new-onset IS,with an incidence of 5.6％;and 224 had new-onset diabetes mellitus,including 22 also had new-onset IS,accounting for 9.8％. The quartile grouping analyses of TyG-WC and TyG-WtHR showed that the incidence of new-onset IS in prediabetes subjects over 10 years was Q4 group>Q3 group>Q2 group>Q1 group,with significant differences (P<0.05). The quartile grouping analysis of TyG-BMI showed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of new-onset IS (P>0.05). The quartile grouping analysis of TyG-WHR showed that the incidence of new-onset IS was Q3 group>Q4 group>Q2 group>Q1 group,with significant difference (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that TyG-WtHR was associated with new-onset IS in prediabetes subjects,either without adjusting any variable or after adjusting multiple factors. Conclusion TyG-WtHR is a risk factor of IS in prediabetes individuals. Enhancing management of prediabetes patients with high TyG-WtHR may reduce the risk of IS.

Human brain banks use a standardized protocol to collect,process and store post-mortem human brains and related tissues,along with relevant clinical information,and to provide the tissue samples and data as a resource to foster neuroscience research according to a standardized operating protocols(SOP).Human brain bank serves as the foundation for neuroscience research and the diagnosis of neurological disorders,highlighting the crucial rule of ensuring the consistency of standardized quality for brain tissue samples.The first version of SOP in 2017 was published by the China Human Brain Bank Consortium.As members increases from different regions in China,a revised SOP was drafted by experts from the China Human Brain Bank Consortium to meet the growing demands for neuroscience research.The revised SOP places a strong emphasis on ethical standards,incorporates neuropathological evaluation of brain regions,and provides clarity on spinal cord sampling and pathological assessment.Notable enhancements in this updated version of the SOP include reinforced ethical guidelines,inclusion of matching controls in recruitment,and expansion of brain regions to be sampled for neuropathological evaluation.

Objective:To analyze the genetic evolution and molecular characteristics of H7N9 avian influenza virus (AIV) isolated in a live poultry market.Methods:Samples such as poultry feces, sewage, and hair removal machine and chopping board swabs were collected. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect influenza A virus and H7N9 AIV in the samples. The whole genome of H7N9 AIV was amplified with influenza A virus universal primers and sequenced. BLAST and MEGA X were used for sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis and molecular characterization.Results:Seven poultry-related environment samples were collected in the live poultry market in Xuchang city in February 2023, and four were positive for H7N9 AIV. The whole genome sequences of three H7N9 AIV isolates were successfully obtained, and the isolates shared high nucleotide identity in different genes (98.37%-100.00%). BLAST analysis showed they were highly identical to H7N9 strains isolated from domestic poultry in China from 2020 to 2021. Genetic evolution analysis showed that the three isolates clustered in the same branch and were closer to the recent environmental isolates than to the recent strains isolated from human or avian. Through comparison with the sequences of the representative strains in different periods, it was found that the isolated strains in this study showed high avian pathogenicity with four amino acids KRAA inserted at the cleavage site; the hemagglutinin receptor-binding site was QSG, which was an avian binding receptor; there was a G186I mutation in hemagglutinin. Mammalian-adaptive mutation E627K was not detected in polymerase basic protein 2. Mutations (R292K and I38T) associated with drug resistance to neuraminidase inhibitor (oseltamivir) and polymerase acidic protein inhibitor (baloshavir) were not detected, suggesting that these isolates remained susceptible to these drugs. A S31N mutation was found in M2 protein, indicating they were resistant to alkamines.Conclusions:The three H7N9 AIV strains isolated in the live poultry market have high avian pathogenicity, but there are no significant increase in mutations related to the binding ability to human receptors, mammalian pathogenicity, viral transmissibility, or drug resistance as compared with previous representative strains causing human or avian infection.
