Aim To investigate the impact of G pro-tein-coupled estrogen receptor 1(GPER1),also known as GPR30 playing a significant role in the nerv-ous system,on neuronal damage and cognitive dysfunc-tion following epileptic seizures.Methods The pro-tein expression levels of GPER1 and the DNA damage marker γ-H2AX in epileptic rats were assessed using Western blot.The hippocampal neuronal damage and apoptosis in pilocarpine-induced epilepsy models were evaluated using Nissl and TUNEL staining techniques,compared with GPER1 knockdown(GPER1-KD)rats with wild-type(WT)controls.The behavioral activi-ties,including memory and spatial learning,were mo-nitored during the chronic phase of epilepsy using the IntelliCage system.Results Compared to the control group,GPER1 protein expression in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus significantly increased 24 hours post-epilepsy onset.In the GPER1-KD+EP group,hipp-ocampal neuronal damage was more severe,with a sig-nificant increase in apoptotic neurons compared to the WT+EP group.The IntelliCage data revealed that during free exploration,nose contact,position learn-ing,and reverse position learning stages in the GPER1-KD+EP group exhibited fewer visits and a higher error rate than in the WT+EP group.Conclu-sions Deficiency in GPER1 impairs memory and spa-tial learning abilities following epilepsy,potentially due to exacerbated neuronal injury,apoptosis,and inflam-mation.GPER1 represents a promising therapeutic tar-get for mitigating post-epileptic nerve damage and cog-nitive impairment.

The cdc73(cell division cycle 73)gene encodes the RNA polymerase Ⅱ cofactor Cdc73 in fis-sion yeast(Schizosaccharomyces Pombe),and is involved in G2 checkpoint activation and regulates the cell cycle.However,whether Cdc73 regulates cell mitotic dynamics is unknown.In this study,fluores-cent protein labeling and live cell imaging techniques were used to investigate the effects of cdc73 deletion on sexual reproduction and the dynamics of microtubules,actin,mitochondria,and histones during mito-sis.The results showed that in sexual reproduction,cdc73 deletion resulted in a 14.23％increase in the length of ascospores and a 64.08％decrease in the number of cells producing four spores.Analysis of the live cell imaging results revealed that,in mitosis,the elongation length of microtubules in anaphase was shortened by 11.21％,and the elongation time was reduced by 17.39％;the formation and contraction rates of actin rings decreased by 33.33％and 26.09％,respectively,and the formation and contraction times were prolonged by 58.00％and 40.38％,respectively.Meanwhile,the expression levels of actin ring,mitochondrion,and histones also increased.This study revealed the cdc73 deletion inhibits spindle elongation and delays actin ring formation and contraction in mitosis,which provides some scientific basis for further exploring the involvement of Cdc73 in regulating microtubule and actin dynamics in cell divi-sion.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the combined detection of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2),protease activated receptor 2(PAR-2),and advanced oxidation protein products(AOPP)and the occurrence of in-stent restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI),as well as its predictive value.Methods Patients with coronary heart disease after PCI were selected as the study objects.Group Ⅰ was the group without in-stent restenosis and group Ⅱ was the group with in-stent restenosis.The expressions of Lp-PLA2,PAR-2 and AOPP were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and the predictive value and independent risk factors of these gene expression changes and the risk of in-stent restenosis were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analysis and binary logistic regression analysis.Results The blood Lp-PLA2 levels in group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ after 1 year follow-up after stenting were(190.24±33.67)and(256.14±37.68)ng·mL-1;PAR-2 levels were(1.41±0.38)and(1.95±0.43)ng·L-1,respectively;the AOPP levels were(47.25±4.62)and(58.76±4.86)μmol·L-1,respectively,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.001).ROC analysis results showed that the truncation values of Lp-PLA2,PAR-2 and AOPP were 201.32 ng·mL-1,1.50 ng·mL-1 and 49.37 μmol·L-1,respectively.The area under the curve(AUC)was significantly higher than that detected alone(all P＜0.001).Binary logistic regression analysis shows that the independent risk factors for in-stent restenstenosis after PCI were Lp-PLA2 ≥ 201.32 ng·mL-1,PAR-2≥1.50 ng·L-1,AOPP ≥49.37 μmol·L-1 and LDL-C≥3.03 mmol·L-1,respectively(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of in-stent restenosis after PCI is closely related to the increase in Lp-PLA2,PAR-2 and AOPP expression.

Objective:To investigate soft-and hard-tissue changes after simultaneously labial and lingual augmented corticotomy in patients with insufficient alveolar bone thickness of lower anterior teeth both in labial and lingual side during orthodontic treatment.Methods:From January 2021 to June 2022, 10 patients [2 males and 8 females, (26.2±3.1) years old] who received orthodontic and orthognathic combined treatment from the Fourth Clinical Division, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology were selected. The alveolar bone thickness of lower anterior teeth both in labial and lingual side in these patients was less than 0.5 mm according to cone-beam CT examination before or during treatment, and 60 lower anterior teeth were included. The 10 patients were treated with simultaneously labial and lingual augmented corticotomy. The differences in gingival recession, papilla index and the differences in labial and lingual alveolar bone thickness of lower anterior teeth were compared.Results:Six months after surgery, the alveolar bone thicknesses at the 4 mm under cemento-enamel junction (CEJ), 8 mm under CEJ and at the apical level [labial side: (1.02±0.39), (2.22±0.89) and (4.87±1.35) mm; lingual side: (1.07±0.46), (2.31±1.04) and (3.91±1.29) mm] were significantly higher than that before surgery [labial side: (0.02±0.09), (0.06±0.21) and (2.71±1.33) mm]; lingual side: (0.14±0.29), (0.40±0.52) and (2.13±1.02) mm] ( P<0.001), respectively. The increases in alveolar bone thickness of central incisors [apical level on labial side: (2.53±1.20) mm, 8 mm under CEJ on lingual side: (2.27±1.24) mm, apical level on lingual side: (2.66±1.49) mm] and lateral incisors [apical level on labial side: (2.42±1.30) mm, 8 mm under CEJ on lingual side: (2.28±0.92) mm, apical level on lingual side: (1.94±1.15) mm] were significantly higher than that of canines [apical level on labial side: (1.52±1.47) mm, 8 mm under CEJ on lingual side: (1.17±1.09) mm,apical level on lingual side: (0.74±1.37) mm] ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the degree of gingival recession [labial side before surgery: (0.72±0.88) mm, lingual side before surgery: (0.80±1.09) mm; labial side 6 months after surgery: (0.72±0.81) mm,lingual side 6 months after surgery: (0.89±0.21) mm] and gingival papilla index [before surgery: 1.00(0.75, 2.00); 6 months after surgery: 1.00(1.00, 2.00) ] between pre-operation and 6 months after surgery ( P>0.05). No serious complications occurred. Conclusions:The method used in this article for simultaneously labial and lingual augmented corticotomy was safe and feasible. This surgery has positive clinical significance for the stability of the periodontal tissue in orthodontic treatment for patients with alveolar bone thickness less than 0.5 mm of lower anterior teeth both in labial and lingual side.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection in the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in a real-world setting.Methods:This was a real-world ambispective cohort study (MOMENT study) (Chinese clinical trial registry number: ChiCTR2200062067). Clinical data were collected from 198 patients who received mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy or combination therapy at 37 hospitals from January 2022 to January 2023, including 166 patients in the retrospective cohort and 32 patients in the prospective cohort; 10 patients in the treatment-na?ve group and 188 patients in the relapsed/refractory group. Clinical characteristics, efficacy and adverse events were summarized, and the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed.Results:All 198 patients were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection for a median of 3 cycles (range 1-7 cycles); 28 cases were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy, and 170 cases were treated with the combination regimen. Among 188 relapsed/refractory patients, 45 cases (23.9%) were in complete remission (CR), 82 cases (43.6%) were in partial remission (PR), and 28 cases (14.9%) were in disease stabilization (SD), and 33 cases (17.6%) were in disease progression (PD), with an objective remission rate (ORR) of 67.6% (127/188). Among 10 treatment-na?ve patients, 4 cases (40.0%) were in CR, 5 cases (50.0%) were in PR, and 1 case (10.0%) was in PD, with an ORR of 90.0% (9/10). The median follow-up time was 2.9 months (95% CI 2.4-3.7 months), and the median PFS and OS of patients in relapsed/refractory and treatment-na?ve groups were not reached. In relapsed/refractory patients, the difference in ORR between patients with different number of treatment lines of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection [ORR of the second-line, the third-line and ≥the forth-line treatment was 74.4% (67/90), 73.9% (34/46) and 50.0% (26/52)] was statistically significant ( P = 0.008). Of the 198 PTCL patients, 182 cases (91.9%) experienced at least 1 time of treatment-related adverse events, and the incidence rate of ≥grade 3 adverse events was 66.7% (132/198), which was mainly characterized by hematologic adverse events. The ≥ grade 3 hematologic adverse events mainly included decreased lymphocyte count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased white blood cell count, and anemia; non-hematologic adverse events were mostly grade 1-2, mainly including pigmentation disorders and upper respiratory tract infection. Conclusions:The use of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection-containing regimen in the treatment of PTCL has definite efficacy and is well tolerated, and it is a new therapeutic option for PTCL patients.

Purpose: We aimed to analyze the optimal timing of enteral nutrition (EN) in the treatment of sepsis and its effect on sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI.) Materials and Methods: The MIMIC-III database was employed to identify patients with sepsis who had received EN. With AKI as the primary outcome variable, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to calculate the optimal cut-off time of early EN (EEN). Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to control confounding effects. Logistic regressions and propensity score-based inverse probability of treatment weighting were utilized to assess the robustness of our findings. Comparisons within the EEN group were performed. Results: 2364 patients were included in our study. With 53 hours after intensive care units (ICU) admission as the cut-off time of EEN according to the ROC curve, 1212 patients were assigned to the EEN group and the other 1152 to the delayed EN group. The risk of SA-AKI was reduced in the EEN group (odds ratio 0.319, 95% confidence interval 0.245–0.413, p<0.001). The EEN patients received fewer volumes (mL) of intravenous fluid (IVF) during their ICU stay (3750 mL vs. 5513.23 mL, p<0.001). The mediating effect of IVF was significant (p<0.001 for the average causal mediation effect). No significant differences were found within the EEN group (0–48 hours vs. 48–53 hours), except that patients initiating EN within 48 hours spent fewer days in ICU and hospital. Conclusion EEN is associated with decreased risk of SA-AKI, and this beneficial effect may be proportionally mediated by IVF volume.

Claudin18.2(CLDN18.2)is a tight junction protein that is overexpressed in a variety of solid tumors such as gastrointestinal cancer and oesophageal cancer.It has been identified as a promising target and a potential biomarker to diagnose tumor,evaluate efficacy,and determine patient prognosis.TST001 is a recombinant humanized CLDN18.2 antibody that selectively binds to the extracellular loop of human Claudin18.2.In this study,we constructed a solid target radionuclide zirconium-89(89Zr)labled-TST001 to detect the expression of in the human stomach cancer BGC823CLDN18.2 cell lines.The[89Zr]Zr-des-ferrioxamine(DFO)-TST001 showed high radiochemical purity(RCP,＞99％)and specific activity(24.15±1.34 GBq/μmol),and was stable in 5％human serum albumin,and phosphate buffer saline(＞85％RCP at 96 h).The EC50 values of TST001 and DFO-TST001 were as high as 0.413±0.055 and 0.361±0.058 nM(P＞0.05),respectively.The radiotracer had a significantly higher average standard uptake values in CLDN18.2-positive tumors than in CLDN18.2-negative tumors(1.11±0.02 vs.0.49±0.03,P=0.0016)2 days post injection(p.i.).BGC823CLDN18.2 mice models showed high tumor/muscle ratios 96 h p.i.with[89Zr]Zr-DFO-TST001 was much higher than those of the other imaging groups.Immunohistochemistry results showed that BGC823CLDN18.2 tumors were highly positive(+++)for CLDN18.2,while those in the BGC823 group did not express CLDN18.2(-).The results of ex vivo biodistribution studies showed that there was a higher distribution in the BGC823CLDN18.2 tumor bearing mice(2.05±0.16％ID/g)than BGC823 mice(0.69±0.02％ID/g)and blocking group(0.72±0.02％ID/g).A dosimetry estimation study showed that the effective dose of[89Zr]Zr-DFO-TST001 was 0.0705 mSv/MBq,which is within the range of acceptable doses for nuclear medicine research.Taken together,these re-sults suggest that Good Manufacturing Practices produced by this immuno-positron emission tomog-raphy probe can detect CLDN18.2-overexpressing tumors.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, cytogenetics, molecular biology, treatment, and prognosis of patients with therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia (t-MDS/AML) secondary to malignancies. Methods: The clinical data of 86 patients with t-MDS/AML in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January 2010 and April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical characteristics, primary tumor types, and tumor-related therapies were analyzed. Results: The study enrolled a total of 86 patients with t-MDS/AML, including 67 patients with t-AML, including 1 patient with M(0), 6 with M(1), 27 with M(2), 9 with M(3), 12 with M(4), 10 with M(5), 1 with M(6), and 1 with M(7). Sixty-two patients could be genetically stratified, with a median overall survival (OS) of 36 (95% CI 22-52) months for 20 (29.9%) patients in the low-risk group and 6 (95% CI 3-9) months for 10 (14.9%) in the intermediate-risk group. The median OS time was 8 (95% CI 1-15) months in 32 (47.8%) patients in the high-risk group. For patients with non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and AML, the median OS of the low-risk group was 27 (95% CI 18-36) months, which was significantly longer than that of the non-low-risk group (χ(2)=5.534, P=0.019). All 9 APL cases were treated according to the initial treatment, and the median OS was not reached, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were 100.0%, (75.0±6.2) %, and (75.0±6.2) % respectively. Of the 58 patients with non-APL t-AML (89.7%), 52 received chemotherapy, and 16 achieved complete remission (30.8%) after the first induction chemotherapy. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates of the non-APL t-AML group were (42.0 ± 6.6) %, (22.9±5.7) %, and (13.4±4.7) %, respectively. The median OS of patients who achieved remission was 24 (95% CI 18-30) months, and the median OS of those who did not achieve remission was 6 (95% CI 3-9) months (χ(2)=10.170, P=0.001). Bone marrow CR was achieved in 7 (53.8%) of 13 patients treated with vineclar-containing chemotherapy, with a median OS of 12 (95% CI 9-15) months, which was not significantly different from that of vineclar-containing chemotherapy (χ(2)=0.600, P=0.437). In 19 patients with t-MDS, the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were (46.8±11.6) %, (17.5±9.1) %, and (11.7±9.1) % with a median OS of 12 (95% CI 7-17) months, which was not significantly different from that in t-AML (χ(2)=0.232, P=0.630) . Conclusions: Breast cancer, bowel cancer, and other primary tumors are common in patients with t-MDS/AML, which have a higher risk of adverse genetics. Patients with APL had a high induction remission rate and a good long-term prognosis, whereas patients without APL had a low remission rate and a poor long-term prognosis.
