Objective To detect and analyze the expression levels of serum microRNA(miR)-455 and miR-383 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC),and to explore their clinical diagnostic value.Methods A total of 98 NSCLC patients in our hospital from March 2020 to January 2023 were regarded as the NSCLC group,98 patients with benign lung diseases admitted during the same period were regarded as the benign lung disease group,and another 98 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination in our hospital during the same period were collected as the health group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was applied to detect the expression levels of miR-455 and miR-383 in serum.Pearson was applied to analyze the correlation between serum miR-455 expression level and miR-383 level in NSCLC patients;multivariate Logistic regression and ROC curve was applied to analyze the influencing factors and diagnostic value of NSCLC occurrence.Results The expression levels of miR-455 and miR-383 in the serum of the healthy group,benign lung disease group,and NSCLC group decreased sequentially.Pearson analysis showed there was a positive correlation between serum miR-455 expression level and miR-383 level in NSCLC patients(r=0.582,P＜0.05).Logistic analysis found that low expression levels of miR-455 and miR-383 were risk factors for the occurrence of NSCLC(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of NSCLC diagnosed by the combination of miR-455 and miR-383 was obviously higher than that diagnosed by miR-455 alone(Z=3.604,P=0.000)and miR-383 alone(Z=2.594,P=0.010).Conclusion The relative expression levels of miR-455 and miR-383 in serum of NSCLC patients are obviously down-regulated.The combined detection of the two has high diagnostic value for NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the radiosensitizating effect of quercetin(QU)loaded manganese dioxide nanoparticles[Mn(QU)]on breast cancer cell line 4T1 and tumour-bearing mice.Methods Mang anese dioxide(MnO2)nanoparticles were synthesized by oleic acid template method.The morphology and chemical composition of MnO2 nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy(TEM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Then QU nanomaterials were encapsulated by using physical adsorption.The composition was characterized by ultraviolet spectrophotometer,and the ability of Mn(QU)nanoparticles reacting with different doses of hydrogen peroxide to produce oxygen at different pH values was detected by dissolved oxygen analyzer.CCK-8 assay was employed to detect the effects of different concentrations of Mn(QU)nanoparticles on the viability of 4T1 cells.Colony formation,γ-H2AX fluorescence staining,ROS fluorescence staining,LIVE/DEAD cell viability assay and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the radiosensitizing and pro-apoptotic effects of Mn(QU)nanoparticles on 4T1 cells.Finally,the effect of Mn(QU)nanoparticles combined with radiotherapy on tumor growth inhibition was evaluated in mouse model of 4T1 cell transplanted tumor.Results MnO2 nanoparticles with particle size of about 120 nm were successfully synthesized and encapsulated with QU.The oxygen generation capacity of the prepared Mn(QU)nanoparticles reacting with hydrogen peroxide was negatively correlated with pH value and positively with hydrogen peroxide concentration.The results of cell experiments showed that Mn(QU)nanoparticles at a concentration of 50 μg/mL had no obvious toxicity to 4T1 cells,but could significantly enhance the X-ray-induced killing effect on 4T1 cells,at a radiotherapy sensitization ratio of 1.61,improve DNA double-strand breaks and ROS production,and induce apoptosis of 4T1 cells.The results of tumor xenograft model experiment indicated that the inhibition of tumor volume was Mn(QU)nanoparticles combined with radiotherapy＞MnO2 nanoparticles combined radiotherapy＞QU combined radiotherapy＞Radiotherapy＞Control.Conclusion Mn(QU)nanoparticles combined with radiotherapy can significantly inhibit the proliferation and show radiosensitization of breast cancer 4T1 cells,and also exert a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of the transplanted tumor.

Objective:To investigate the correlation factors of complete clinical response in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies(IIMs)patients receiving conventional treatment.Methods:Patients diagnosed with IIMs hospitalized in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2000 to June 2023 were in-cluded.The correlation factors of complete clinical response to conventional treatment were identified by analyzing the clinical characteristics,laboratory features,peripheral blood lymphocytes,immunological indicators,and therapeutic drugs.Results:Among the 635 patients included,518 patients finished the follow-up,with an average time of 36.8 months.The total complete clinical response rate of IIMs was 50.0％(259/518).The complete clinical response rate of dermatomyositis(DM),anti-synthetase syn-drome(ASS)and immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy(IMNM)were 53.5％,48.9％and 39.0％,respectively.Fever(P=0.002)and rapid progressive interstitial lung disease(RP-ILD)(P=0.014)were observed much more frequently in non-complete clinical response group than in complete clinical re-sponse group.The aspartate transaminase(AST),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),D-dimer,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),C-reaction protein(CRP)and serum ferritin were significantly higher in non-complete clinical response group as compared with complete clinical response group.As for the treat-ment,the percentage of glucocorticoid received and intravenous immunoglobin(IVIG)were significantly higher in non-complete clinical response group than in complete clinical response group.Risk factor analysis showed that IMNM subtype(P=0.007),interstitial lung disease(ILD)(P=0.001),eleva-ted AST(P=0.012),elevated serum ferritin(P=0.016)and decreased count of CD4+T cells in peripheral blood(P=0.004)might be the risk factors for IIMs non-complete clinical response.Conclu-sion:The total complete clinical response rate of IIMs is low,especially for IMNM subtype.More effec-tive intervention should be administered to patients with ILD,elevated AST,elevated serum ferritin or decreased count of CD4+T cells at disease onset.

Objective:To explore whether lung microorganisms influence the occurrence and development of early lung adenocarcinoma by analyzing the presence and changes of local microorganisms in early lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:Tumor tissues and alveolar lavage fluid were collected from 32 patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma at the China-Japan Friendship Hospital. Nextseq550DX was used for DNA sequencing. R language was used to calculate the number of microorganisms in the tumor tissue and alveolar lavage fluid samples of different stages and grades. species and diversity, and use statistical methods such as TSEA and LEfSe analysis to compare the diversity and differences of microorganisms in different groups. Results:Both Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria accounted for a higher proportion in both the tumor tissue and alveolar lavage fluid samples of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The number of microorganisms detected in the tumor tissue was greater than that in the lavage fluid, and the alpha diversity was higher, but the difference Not significant( P<0. 05). According to the analysis of differences in lung microorganisms in patients with different pathological grades: In the two samples, invasive adenocarcinoma has more microorganisms than carcinoma in situ + microinvasive carcinoma, and the alpha diversity of the lavage fluid is significantly higher, and the comparison between the groups is statistically significant( P=0. 011); the difference in β diversity was not statistically significant( P>0. 05). Group analysis based on different pathological types: the invasive adenocarcinoma group samples showed a decrease in Proteobacteria, the carcinoma in situ + minimally invasive cancer group was mainly composed of Proteobacteria, and most of the microorganisms related to lung cancer differences analyzed in each group belonged to Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria. Phylum. Conclusion:Most of the microbes in tumor tissues and lavage fluid of lung adenocarcinoma belong to the Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria. Most of the differentially associated microbes of lung cancer under different classifications also belong to Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria, which are the main characteristics of lung microbial composition in patients with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma.

Complex brain diseases seriously endanger human health, and early diagnostic biomarkers and effective treatments are currently lacking. Due to ethical constraints on human research, establishing monkey models is crucial to address these issues. With the rapid development of technology, transgenic monkey models of a range of brain diseases, especially autism spectrum disorder (ASD), have been successfully established. However, to establish practical and effective brain disease models and subsequently apply them to disease mechanism and treatment studies, there is still a lack of a standard tool, i.e., a system for collecting and analyzing the daily behaviors of brain disease model monkeys. Therefore, with the goal of undertaking a comprehensive and quantitative study of behavioral phenotypes, we established a standard daily behavior collection and analysis system, including behavioral data collection protocols and a monkey daily behavior ethogram (MDBE) for rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys, which are the most commonly used non-human primates in model construction. Then, we used ASD as an application example after referring to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5-TR), which is widely used in clinical disease diagnosis to obtain ASD core clinical symptoms. We then established a sub-ethogram (ASD monkey core behavior ethogram (MCBE-ASD)) specifically for quantitative assessment of the core clinical symptoms of an ASD monkey model based on MDBE. Subsequently, we demonstrated the high reproducibility of the system.

Objective    To analyze the effect of carotid artery stenosis degree and intervention for carotid artery stenosis on the incidence of central nervous system complications after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) and explore the influencing factors. Methods    A total of 1 150 patients undergoing OPCABG in our hospital from June 2018 to June 2021 were selected and divided into two groups according to whether there were central nervous system complications, including a central nervous system complication group [n=61, 43 males and 18 females with a median age of 68.0 (63.0, 74.0) years] and a non-central nervous system complication group [n=1 089, 796 males and 293 females with a median age of 65.5 (59.0, 70.0) years]. The risk factors for central nervous system complications after OPCABG were analyzed. Results    Univariate analysis showed that age, smoking, hyperlipidemia, preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, intra-aortic ballon pump (IABP), postoperative arrhythmia, postoperative thoracotomy and blood transfusion volume were associated with central nervous system complications. The incidence of central nervous system complications in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis or occlusion (11.63%) was higher than that in the non-stenosis and mild stenosis patients (4.80%) and moderate stenosis patients (4.76%) with a statistical difference (P=0.038). The intervention for carotid artery stenosis before or during the operation did not reduce the incidence of central nervous system complications after the operation (42.11% vs. 2.99%, P<0.001). Age, postoperative arrhythmia, severe unilateral or bilateral carotid artery stenosis and occlusion were independent risk factors for postoperative central nervous system complications (P<0.05). Conclusion     The age, smoking, hyperlipidemia, preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, intraoperative use of IABP, postoperative arrhythmia, secondary thoracotomy after surgery, blood transfusion volume and OPCABG are associated with the incidence of postoperative central nervous system complications in patients. Age, postoperative arrhythmia, severe unilateral or bilateral carotid artery stenosis and occlusion are independent risk factors for postoperative central nervous system complications. In patients with severe carotid artery stenosis, preoperative treatment of the carotid artery will not reduce the incidence of central nervous system complications.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy and safety of Daratumumab for the treatment of primary AL light chain systemic amyloidosis.Methods:Twenty one patients who were diagnosed as primary AL light chain systemic amyloidosis and treated with Daratumumab from 7 centers were retrospectively analyzed. Daratumumab was administrated as first line therapy in seven patients and 14 patients with relapsed settings. Hematological response, safety and survival were analyzed.Results:All 7 patients achieved very good partial response (VGPR) or better with first-line application of daratumumab. Three patients died, and the other four achieved organ remission. Among 14 relapsed patients, 2 patients had a difference of free light chain (dFLC) less than 20 mg/L before treatment, and 9 with a dFLC of more than 50 mg/L. All patients reached partial response (PR) or better, including 4 patients with complete response (CR), 3 with VGPR and 2 with PR. The response rate was 100% in 3 patients with dFLC 20-50 mg/L at baseline. The organ remission rate was 50% in patients with heart involvement and 58.3% in patients with kidney impairment. The overall median follow-up period was 5.3 months, and 11 months in surviving patients. One patient died of severe infection and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with stable amyloidosis. One patient switched to other regimens because dFLC elevated but did not fulfill progressive disease after 2 year application. As to safety, no grade 3/4 infusion reaction developed, and grade 1 infusion reaction occurred in 3 cases during the first infusion. Lymphocytopenia was seen in 75% patients including grade 3 or more in 30% patients.Conclusion:Daratumumab is effective to eliminate serum free light chain in both newly diagnosed and relapsed patients with systemic amyloidosis.
