Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of protein A immunoadsorption (PAIA) combined with rituximab (RTX) in highly sensitized patients who underwent haplo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) .Methods:The clinical data of 56 highly sensitized patients treated with PAIA and RTX before haplo-HSCT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and Soochow Hopes Hematonosis Hospital between March 2021 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The number of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody types and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI), humoral immunity, adverse reactions during adsorption, and survival within 100 days before and after adsorption were measured.Results:After receiving the PAIA treatment, the median MFI of patients containing only HLA Ⅰ antibodies decreased from 7 859 (3 209-12 444) to 3 719 (0-8 275) ( P<0.001), and the median MFI of HLA Ⅰ+Ⅱ antibodies decreased from 5 476 (1 977-12 382) to 3 714 (0-11 074) ( P=0.035). The median MFI of patients with positive anti-donor-specific antibodies decreased from 8 779 (2 697-18 659) to 4 524 (0–15 989) ( P<0.001). The number of HLA-A, B, C, DR, and DQ antibodies in all patients decreased after the PAIA treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (A, B, C, DR: P<0.001, DQ: P<0.01). The humoral immune monitoring before and after the PAIA treatment showed a significant decrease in the number of IgG and complement C3 ( P<0.001 and P=0.002, respectively). Forty-four patients underwent HLA antibody monitoring after transplantation, and the overall MFI and number of antibody types decreased. However, five patients developed new antibodies with low MFI, and nine patients continued to have high MFI. The overall survival, disease-free survival, non-recurrent mortality, and cumulative recurrence rates at 100 days post-transplantation were 83.8%, 80.2%, 16.1%, and 4.5%, respectively. Conclusions:The combination of PAIA and RTX has a certain therapeutic effect and good safety in the desensitization treatment of highly sensitive patients before haplo-HSCT.

Obiective Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by a variety of risk factors. There are various pathological changes, but apoptosis of the neurological meridian cells is one of the most important pathological bases. Hyperlipidemia is a high-risk factor for the development of AD, which can lead to increased levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in brain tissues. PCSK9 is a protease closely related to lipid metabolism, but studies have shown that it may be related to the development of AD. LRP1 is abundantly expressed in neuronal cells, and it is an important transporter for the clearance of Aβ. There is now a large amount of literature confirming that PCSK9 can induce the degradation of LRP1. PI3K/AKT is an important signaling pathway in vivo, which plays an important role in apoptosis, and there is now a large amount of literature confirming that LRP1 activates the PI3K/AKT pathway, which has an anti-apoptotic effect. So can PCSK9 affect the PI3K/AKT pathway through LRP1 and thus regulate neuronal apoptosis? This deserves further investigation.The aim of this study was to explore the role of PCSK9 in mediating ox-LDL pro-apoptotic neuronal cell death and its mechanism, and then further elaborate the mechanism of hyperlipidemia leading to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD. MethodsFirstly, PC12 cells were treated with different concentrations of ox-LDL (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/L) for 24 h. Oil red O staining was used to detect lipid accumulation in PC12 cells, Hoechst33258 staining and flow cytometry to detect apoptosis in PC12 cells, ELISA to detect the content of Aβ secreted by PC12, Western blot to detect expression of SREBP2, PCSK9 and LRP1. Then PC12 cells were treated with 75 mg/L ox-LDL for different times (0, 6, 12, 24, 48 h), and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of SREBP2, PCSK9 and LRP1. Finally, after transfecting 100 nmol/L PCSK9 siRNA into PC12 cells for 48 h, PC12 cells were treated with 75 mg/L ox-LDL for 24 h, Hoechst33258 staining and flow cytometry to detect apoptosis rate of PC12 cells, and Western blot to detect PCSK9, LRP1, PI3K, AKT, P-PI3K , P-AKT, NF-κB, Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 expression, and ELISA detected Aβ content secreted by PC12 cells. Resultsox-LDL increased lipid accumulation and promoted apoptosis and Aβ secretion in PC12 cells, as well as increasing the expression of SREBP2 and PCSK9 and decreasing the expression of LRP1 in PC12 cells. pCsk9 siRNA could be inhibited through the PI3K/AKT pathway and the NF-κB-Bcl-2/Bax-Caspase-9/3 pathway to inhibit ox-LDL-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells while increasing Aβ secretion in PC12 cells. Conclusionox-LDL plays a bidirectional regulatory role in ox-LDL-induced apoptosis of PC12 cells by inducing an increase in PCSK9 expression and a decrease in LRP1 expression in PC12 cells, which in turn affects different signaling pathways downstream.

kidney deficiency and blood stasis are believed to be the key pathogenesis of recurrent implantation failure (RIF), and therefore, it is proposed to take kidney-supplementing and blood-invigorating as the basic treatment method, and use it by stages to assist the controlled superovulation program of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). The focus should be put on nourishing kidney yin, soothing the liver and invigorating blood during down-regulation period, using kidney yin-nourishing medicinals and modified Qinghao Biejia Decoction (青蒿鳖甲汤). During the ovulation induction period, the focus should be put on nourishing kidney yang, replenishing blood, and promoting blood circulation, with self-made Bushen Culuan Formula (补肾促卵方) in modifications. After transplantation, it is suggested to put focus on tonifying the kidneys and replenishing essence, and self-made Wuzi Yanzong Guchong Decoction (五子衍宗固冲汤) in modifications can be used. At the same time, fetal protection treatment should be carried out for pregnant women, and modified Shou Tai Pill (寿胎丸) can be used to tonify the kidneys and calm the fetus.

Objective:To analyze clinical efficacy, failure mode and prognostic factors of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients undergoing intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).Methods:Clinical data of 951 locally advanced NPC patients who were newly-treated with IMRT in Hunan Cancer Hospital from January 2018 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients' general data, overall survival (OS), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), regional recurrence-free survival (RRFS), local recurrence-free survival (LRRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed. Comparison among different groups was performed by one-way ANOVA. Survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Survival difference was compared by log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed by Cox regression model.Results:The median follow-up time was 62.0 months (IQR, 58.0-65.0 months). The 5-year OS, LRFS, RRFS, LRRFS, DMFS, and PFS were 85.4%, 94.0%, 97.7%, 92.6%, 85.7% and 76.9%, respectively. According to the 8th edition staging of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), there were 10 cases (1.1%) of stage I, 76 cases (8.0%) of stage II, 445 cases (46.8%) of stage III, and 420 cases (44.2%) of stage IVA, respectively. Among them, the OS rates of stage I, II, III and IVA patients were 100%, 97.2%, 88.8% and 79.2%, respectively ( P<0.001); LRRFS rates were 100%, 90.4%, 94.7% and 90.4%, respectively( P=0.104); DMFS rates were 90.0%, 95.9%, 88.0% and 81.1%, respectively ( P<0.001); PFS rates were 90.0%, 89.1%, 80.9% and 70.1% respectively ( P<0.001). There were 183 cases of treatment failure, including 52 cases (5.5%) of local failure, 19 cases (2.0%) of regional failure, 130 cases (13.7%) of distant metastasis, 16 cases of local combined with regional failure (1.7%), 16 cases (1.7%) of local failure combined with distant metastasis, 13 cases (1.4%) of regional failure combined with distant metastasis, and 9 cases (0.9%) of local regional failure combined with distant metastasis, respectively. Multivariate regression analysis suggested that EB virus DNA copy number before treatment, T stage and N stage were the independent prognostic factors affecting OS, DMFS and PFS. Conclusions:Compared with two-dimensional radiotherapy, IMRT has improved the overall therapeutic effect for NPC, especially the local control rate. Distant metastasis is still the main failure mode. Clinical staging, prognostic risk stratification and prognostic biomarkers can be combined to deliver stratified and precise treatment, which may further improve clinical efficacy and reduce treatment-related side effects.
