Chronic pancreatitis(CP)is a progressive fibroinflammatory disease characterized by destruction of pancreatic aci-nar cells,infiltration of inflammatory cells,activation of pancreatic stellate cell(PSC),and pancreatic fibrosis.Autophagy partici-pates in the maintenance of cell homeostasis.Recent studies have shown that autophagy closely related to the occurrence and develop-ment of CP.However,several autophagy types in the pancreatic microenvironment play different roles in the progression of CP.The autophagy of acinar cells has a"double-edged sword"effect.PSC autophagy is positively correlated with its activation,while the role of autophagy of inflammatory cells is still unclear.This study focused on some key cells in the CP microenvironment and explored the role and mechanism of autophagy in the progression of CP.

As research delves deeper into the mechanisms of tumor immune responses,studies reveal the importance of microbial com-munities within the tumor microenvironment in tumor progression and their interactions with the host immune system.Intratumoral micro-biota could influence the tumor microenvironment,thereby promoting or inhibiting tumor growth and development.Despite this import-ance,the specific role of intratumoral microbiota impacting cancer immunotherapeutic efficacy remains largely unexplored.A deeper under-standing of the characteristics and biological functions of tumor-specific microbiota heralds a potential revolutionary innovation in cancer treatment.In this review,we introduce the discovery and sources of intratumoral microbiota,also addressing its composition,and discuss tumor tissue characteristics.Moreover,we briefly review the history of cancer immunotherapy development with a particular focus on the research progress concerning the impact of intratumoral microbiota on cancer immunotherapy.Furthermore,we explore emerging strategies that combine targeting intratumoral microbiota with immunotherapy to enhance immune efficacy,inhibit tumor progression,and improve cure rates,anticipating that this approach could represent a new direction for enhancing treatment outcomes and prospects.

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) refers to the simultaneous treatment of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and the effect of radiotherapy is enhanced with low-dose chemotherapy, which can reduce tumor recurrence and metastasis and improve clinical prognosis of patients. At present, the main factors for the increase of radiosensitivity of concurrent chemotherapy is that concurrent chemotherapy prevents the repair of tumor cells, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy act on different cell cycles and have synergistic effects. However, even for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) who have undergone CCRT, the 5-year survival rate is only 60%, which is still not ideal. In order to improve the efficacy, researchers have conducted a series of exploratory studies, which consist of the combination of targeted drugs and immunodrugs, and neoadjuvant regimens before CCRT, etc. Although targeted or immunologic drugs are effective treatment of LACC, in view of the lack of large-scale evidence-based medical evidence, multi-center prospective and randomized phase III clinical trials and high-level articles are needed to improve the level of evidence-based medicine. This consensus summarizes several key evidence-based medical studies published recently, especially the clinical research progress in targeted and immunological therapies, providing reference for domestic peers.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of exacerbating chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) in mice with inflammatory status and enhancing immune injury in mice with PD-1.Method:Bone marrow and spleen cells of DBA/2 mice were injected into BALB/C mice pretreated with chemotherapy regimen (Flu+Bu) for constructing a chronic GVHD model. The animals were assigned into two groups of zymosan (100M SPL+10M BM+Zymosan) and control (100M SPL+10M BM+ PBS). After transplantation, two groups of mice were observed for weight changes, survival status and chronic GVHD manifestations. Target organ tissues were harvested for pathological scoring. Flow cytometry was employed for detecting cell subpopulations and surface co-stimulatory molecules in target organs. PD-1 monoclonal antibody was injected into inflammatory murine model. Mice were observed and target organ cells were harvested for subsets and co-stimulatory factors.Result:In in vivo experiments, zymosan group showed more significant changes of chronic GVHD with higher mortality rate, faster weight loss and more severe symptoms of GVHD. At Week 2 post-transplantation, hematoxylin-eosin stain of target organ tissue was performed for pathology examination. Zymosan group showed more lymphocyte infiltration, more severe inflammation and more significant tissue injury with higher GVHD pathological score. The proportion of M2 in liver/lung of zymosan group was significantly lower than that of control group ( P<0.05) and no significant difference existed in the proportion of M1. In in vivo experiments, M1 ratio of splenic cell spiked markedly in zymosan group as compared to control group while M2 ratio declined greatly. The secretions of IL-4 and IL-10 dropped significantly while co-stimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 rose obviously. Conclusion:The worsening graft-versus-host disease in inflammatory mice with anti-PD1 treatment is associated with a decline of Treg proportion.

In recent years, the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has significantly increased, leading to various adverse outcomes for mothers and their offspring. Early diagnosis and good blood glucose control can significantly improve pregnancy outcomes. Currently, the diagnosis of GDM mainly relies on the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), but there are many limitations in clinical application. The new biological marker glycosylated CD59 is a glycosylation product of complement regulatory proteins that can stably exist in body fluids and is linearly related to blood glucose levels, which has the advantages of simple testing and good reproducibility, and has been developed into a stable reagent kit. It has shown good value in the early diagnosis, standard diagnosis, and prediction of pregnancy outcomes of GDM.

Colorectal tumors often create an immunosuppressive microenvironment that prevents them from responding to immunotherapy.Cannabidiol(CBD)is a non-psychoactive natural active ingredient from the cannabis plant that has various pharmacological effects,including neuroprotective,antiemetic,anti-inflammatory,and antineoplastic activities.This study aimed to elucidate the specific anticancer mechanism of CBD by single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)and single-cell ATAC sequencing(scATAC-seq)technologies.Here,we report that CBD inhibits colorectal cancer progression by modulating the suppressive tumor microenvironment(TME).Our single-cell transcriptome and ATAC sequencing results showed that CBD suppressed M2-like macrophages and promoted M1-like macrophages in tumors both in strength and quantity.Furthermore,CBD significantly enhanced the interaction between M1-like macrophages and tumor cells and restored the intrinsic anti-tumor properties of macrophages,thereby preventing tumor progression.Mechanistically,CBD altered the metabolic pattern of macro-phages and related anti-tumor signaling pathways.We found that CBD inhibited the alternative acti-vation of macrophages and shifted the metabolic process from oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis by inhibiting the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B signaling pathway and related downstream target genes.Furthermore,CBD-mediated macrophage plasticity enhanced the response to anti-programmed cell death protein-1(PD-1)immunotherapy in xenografted mice.Taken together,we provide new insights into the anti-tumor effects of CBD.
