AIM:This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which LINC00973 regulates multidrug re-sistance of non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC).METHODS:The GEPIA database was employed to analyze the expres-sion levels of LINC00973 in NSCLC and its correlation with patient prognosis in clinical settings.RT-qPCR was utilized to assess LINC00973 expression in various NSCLC cell lines and chemoresistant cells.The migration,invasion,stemness ca-pacity,and drug sensitivity of NSCLC cells with either overexpression or knockdown of LINC00973 were evaluated using wound healing assay,Transwell assay,sphere formation assay,and CCK-8 assay.RNA sequencing was conducted on LINC00973-overexpressing and parental NSCLC cells to identify dysregulated pathways and targets.The LncBase Pre-dicted v.2 and TargetScan databases were used to predict the microRNAs(miRNAs)co-bound by LINC00973 and their target genes.Mimics and inhibitors of candidate miRNAs were synthesized and transfected into NSCLC cells subjected to LINC00973 overexpression or knockdown.Changes in the expression level of LINC00973,and the mRNA and protein ex-pression levels of its target genes were assessed using RT-qPCR and Western blot.RESULTS:Analysis of the GEPIA da-tabase revealed that LINC00973 was significantly up-regulated in lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcino-ma,correlating with poor prognosis of NSCLC patients.The LINC00973 expression was elevated in various NSCLC and chemoresistant cell lines(A549/DDP and A549/5-FU).Overexpression of LINC00973 in A549 and H520 cells markedly enhanced their migration,invasion,and stemness capabilities,while concurrently reducing sensitivity to chemotherapy and targeted therapies.RNA sequencing,along with RT-qPCR results,indicated that ATP-binding cassette transporter G5(ABCG5)was activated in LINC00973-overexpressing A549 and H520 cells.Further database analyses and dual trans-fection experiments confirmed that LINC00973 regulated ABCG5 expression through competitive binding with hsa-miR-150-5p.CONCLUSION:LINC00973,which is aberrantly up-regulated in NSCLC specimens and associated with poor clinical prognosis,promotes the expression of ABCG5 through competitive binding with hsa-miR-150-5p.This interaction leads to en-hanced invasion,stemness,and multidrug resistance in NSCLC cells.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the characteristics and rules of upper airway computerized tomography (CT) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients with epiglottic collapse.Methods:As a cross-sectional study, OSA patients (all were male, aged 18 to 60) who received Han-uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (H-UPPP) surgery at Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from April 2023 to February 2024 were continuously selected. All patients underwent physical examination, polysomnography (PSG) and three-dimensional CT plain scan of upper airway before surgery. Preoperative drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) was performed on the day of surgery. According to the findings of DISE, all patients were divided into two groups: epiglottic collapse group and non-epiglottic collapse group. The relevant data were collected, and the measured data included epiglottic length, epiglottic width, epiglottic curvature, epiglottic angle, distance between epiglottis and posterior pharyngeal wall, distance between epiglottis and tongue base, angle between epiglottis and tongue base, the lymph tissue classification of the tongue base, airway length, mandibular - hyoid bone distance, soft palate length and soft palate - hard palate Angle. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 25.0.Results:There were a total of 104 patients with OSA, consisting of 27 patients with epiglottic collapse and 77 patients with non-epiglottic collapse. In this study, the incidence of epiglottic collapse was 25.96%. There were no significant differences in apnea hyponea index (AHI), minimum blood oxygen saturation and the time ratio of blood oxygen saturation below 90% (TS90) between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the non-epiglottic collapse group, the epiglottic length [(19.77±2.42)mm vs. (18.54±2.62)mm, t=2.162, P=0.033] and the lymph tissue classification of the tongue base [4(1,4) vs.2(1,3), Z=-2.968, P=0.003] in the epiglottic collapse group increased. Distance between epiglottis and tongue base reduced [2.70(0,5.88) mm vs. 5.45(2.15,6.98)mm, Z=-2.385, P=0.017]. According to Logistic regression analysis, epiglottic collapse and epiglottic width ( OR: 1.201; 95% CI: 1.009-1.430, P=0.039) were positively correlated, epiglottic curvature ( OR: 0.979; 95% CI: 0.961-0.998, P=0.030) was negatively correlated, and with the grade of lymph tissue of tongue root ( OR: 1.936; 95% CI: 1.294-2.896, P=0.001) was positively correlated. Conclusion:CT examination in awake OSA patients with epiglottic collapse can reveal its characteristic indicators. The wider the epiglottic width, the smaller the epiglottic curvature, and the larger the lymph tissue grade of the base of tongue were effective predictors of epiglottic collapse.

Objective To investigate whether the population pharmacokinetics (PPK)models can optimize the initial dosage of individualized Valproic acid (VPA)in children with epilepsy. Methods The epileptic children without taking VPA previously were recruited from October 2015 to May 2017 at the Department of Pediatrics,Peking University First Hospital,and they were divided into the PPK model group and the traditional empirical method group by randomized method. The initial VPA dosages for the PPK model group were calculated by PPK model,whereas those of the traditional empirical method group were dosed at 20-25 mg/(kg·d)regularly. The steady-state serum trough concentrations of VPA were extracted,and then the number and percentage of the patients whose serum trough concen-trations of VPA were 50-100 mg/L in the 2 groups were analyzed and compared with prospectively randomized me-thod. Results Totally 65 epileptic children were recruited and they were randomly divided into the traditional empirical method group (32 cases)and the PPK model group (33 cases). Twenty-seven children in the traditional empirical method group were observed,and 12 children had local epilepsy attack and 15 had generalized seizures;whereas among 29 cases in the PPK model group,there were 12 local attack of epilepsy and 17 had generalized seizures. VPA add-on therapy was administrated in 9 cases and 15 cases in the traditional empirical method group and the PPK model group, respectively. There were 5 cases,21 cases and 1 case with VPA serum concentrations of ＜50 mg/L,50-100 mg/L and＞100 mg/L in the traditional empirical group;while there were 9 cases,20 cases and 0 case in the PPK model group. The VPA serum concentrations of 21 cases (77. 8%,21/27 cases)in the traditional empirical method group and 20 ca-ses (69. 0%,20/29 cases)in the PPK model group were 50-100 mg/L,respectively,and the difference was not sta-tistically significant(P＞0. 05). Conclusion Although the study doesn't suggest that the established PPK model of VPA in Chinese epileptic children is superior to the traditional empirical method,the PPK model might be potentially valuable for optimized individualized dosage adjustment for those with serum trough concentrations not in the reasonable range by the traditional empirical method and with clinical seizure or brain firing activities.

Objectives: To investigate the effect of β-catenin interacting protein 1 (ICAT) silence in Wnt signaling pathway and sterol drug NSC67657 induced cell differentiation of HL60 cell. Methods: HL-60 cells were treated with NSC67657, the cell surface antigen CD14 expression was detected by flow cytometry. Lentivirus LV-ICAT-RNAi vector was constructed and infected HL-60 cells. Then the ICAT gene and protein expression were analyzed using real-time qPCR and Western blot technique. Furthermore, Co-immunoprecipitation assay was used to confirm the interaction of β-catenin/ICAT proteins, and Western blot was employed to compare the expressions of Wnt signaling pathway downstream targets Cyclin D1, TCF-1 and c-Jun between Lentivirus LV-ICAT-RNAi vector infected HL-60 (HL-60i) cells and un-infected HL-60 (HL-60v) cells. The cellular differentiation of HL-60i and HL-60v cells treated with NSC67657 for 24 h was evaluated by Wright’s staining, transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry analysis. Results: HL-60 cells could be induced to differentiate into monocytes by 10 μmol/L NSC67657. The CD14 positive cells could reach to (92.30±5.14) % after NSC67657 treatment for 5d. The co- immunoprecipitation assay demonstrated that ICAT protein did interact with β-catenin protein, and the absorbance of protein electrophoresis bands increased in differentiated cells. The expressions of Wnt signaling pathway downstream target proteins in HL-60i cells were higher than that in HL-60v cells when they were treated by 10 μmol/L NSC67657, but lower than NSC67657 untreated cells. CD14 positive HL-60i cells were significantly lower than that of HL-60v cells[ (8.33±3.14) % vs (19.08±4.73) %]when treated with NSC67657, but still higher than that of uninfected and untreated HL60 cells[ (0.60±0.03) %] (F=119.24, P=0.010) . The results of cellular morphology and ultrastructure observation were also in accord with that of cell surface antigen analysis. Conclusions ICAT does participate in HL-60 cells monocytic differentiation induced by NSC67657, and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway might play a bridge role.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of detecting serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in patients with intracranial hemorrhage.Methods The serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in different period were detected in patients with intracranial hemorrhage, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and compared with those of healthy subjects (the control group).ResultsThe serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α in the severe and slight patients of study group on 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th were signiifcantly higher than those in the control group (all withP<0.05). The serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α in the severe patients of study group were signiifcantly higher than those in slight patients of study group (all withP<0.05) on 5th and 7th. The serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in dead cases on 5th, 7th days admission were significantly higher than those in survival cases (P<0.05). The serum levels of IL-6 was positively correlated with TNF-α (r=0.721,P<0.05).Conclusion The detection of dynamically serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α is of great clinical value for assessing the disease development therapeutic efifcacy and prognosis of brain injury patient with intracranial hemorrhage.
