Objective To investigate the protective effect of sodium (s)-2-(dithiocarboxylato((2R,3R,4R,5R,6R)-2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexyl) amino)-4-(methylthio) butanoate (GMDTC) against cisplatin-induced toxicity during antitumor treatment. Methods Specific pathogen-free female SD rats were inoculated with LLC-WRC-256 tumor cells to establish tumor-bearing models, which were randomly divided into the model control group, cisplatin control group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose GMDTC groups, with 10 rats in each group. Another negative control group with 10 rats was included. Rats in the cisplatin control group and the three GMDTC dose groups were injected intravenously with cisplatin at a dose of 5 mg/kg body mass for one time. After 2.0 hours, rats in the three GMDTC dose groups were injected intravenously with GMDTC at doses of 27, 54, and 108 mg/kg body mass, once per day for five consecutive days. Tumor volume, platinum levels in biological samples (whole blood, urine, kidney, and tumor tissue), serum creatinine (Cr) and urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were measured at different time points. The tumor mass was measured, the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed, and the complete blood count was tested. Results The dilation of renal tubules, cell necrosis and shedding, and the formation of renal tubule patterns in the kidneys of rats in the medium- and high-dose GMDTC groups were significantly reduced compared with those in the cisplatin control group. The tumor volume of rats in the cisplatin control group and the three GMDTC dose groups decreased on the 3rd, 5th and 7th days after cisplatin administration, and the tumor weight decreased on the 7th days compared with the model control group (all P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the above indexes among the four groups (all P>0.05). The levels of serum Cr and BUN of rats in the cisplatin control group on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th days after cisplatin administration, as well as the score of renal tubular injury degree on the 7th day, were higher than those in the negative control group and the model control group (all P<0.05). The serum Cr levels of rates on the 3rd and 5th days after cisplatin administration, the serum BUN levels on the 5th day in the medium- and high-dose GMDTC groups, the score of renal tubular injury degree, and renal platinum level on the 7th day decreased compared with the cisplatin control group (all P<0.05), while the serum Cr and BUN levels on the 6th day and the whole-blood platinum levels in the high-dose GMDTC group decreased (all P<0.05). The urinary platinum levels of rats in the three GMDTC dose groups increased on the 1st day after GMDTC administration (all P<0.05), but decreased on the 3rd day compared with the cisplatin control group (all P<0.05). The counts of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes and platelets of rats in the cisplatin control group were lower than those in the model control group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the above indexes of rats between the three GMDTC dose groups and the cisplatin control group (all P>0.05). Conclusion Intravenous administration of GMDTC at doses of 54 or 108 mg/kg body mass effectively reduce the nephrotoxicity of cisplatin-treated rats with LLC-WRC-256 tumors without affecting the antitumor effect of cisplatin.

Immune evasion has made ovarian cancer notorious for its refractory features, making the development of immunotherapy highly appealing to ovarian cancer treatment. The immune-stimulating cytokine IL-12 exhibits excellent antitumor activities. However, IL-12 can induce IFN-γ release and subsequently upregulate PDL-1 expression on tumor cells. Therefore, the tumor-targeting folate-modified delivery system F-DPC is constructed for concurrent delivery of IL-12 encoding gene and small molecular PDL-1 inhibitor (iPDL-1) to reduce immune escape and boost anti-tumor immunity. The physicochemical characteristics, gene transfection efficiency of the F-DPC nanoparticles in ovarian cancer cells are analyzed. The immune-modulation effects of combination therapy on different immune cells are also studied. Results show that compared with non-folate-modified vector, folate-modified F-DPC can improve the targeting of ovarian cancer and enhance the transfection efficiency of pIL-12. The underlying anti-tumor mechanisms include the regulation of T cells proliferation and activation, NK activation, macrophage polarization and DC maturation. The F-DPC/pIL-12/iPDL-1 complexes have shown outstanding antitumor effects and low toxicity in peritoneal model of ovarian cancer in mice. Taken together, our work provides new insights into ovarian cancer immunotherapy. Novel F-DPC/pIL-12/iPDL-1 complexes are revealed to exert prominent anti-tumor effect by modulating tumor immune microenvironment and preventing immune escape and might be a promising treatment option for ovarian cancer treatment.

Objective:To explore the high-risk factors for parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis（PNAC）in extremely/ultra-low birth weight infants，and establish a risk Alignment Diagram prediction model.Methods:We retrospectivly analyzed the clinical data of hospitalized extremely/ultra-low birth weight infants admitted to Neonatology Department at Quanzhou Children's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020，using multivariate Logistic regression analysis to screen for independent risk factors for the occurrence of PNAC.An Alignment Diagram model prediction model for PNAC was constructed by using R software，and the performance of the model was evaluated through receiver operating characteristic curves.Results:A total of 203 extremely/ultra-low birth weight infants were included，with a median gestational age of 29.14（28.00，30.86）weeks and a median birth weight of 1　170（1　000,1　300）g.Among them，26（12.81%）cases developed PNAC.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the duration of parenteral nutrition（ OR=1.015 ，95% CI 1.003-1.034），the cumulative amount of glucose（ OR=1.014 ，95% CI 1.001-1.028），small for gestational age（ OR=3.455 ，95% CI 1.127-10.589），and neonatal sepsis（ OR=3.142 ，95% CI 1.039-9.503）were independent risk factors for PNAC（ P＜0.05）；The four independent risk factors mentioned above were introduced into R software to construct an Alignment Diagram model，the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.835（95% CI 0.842-0.731），and the results of the Hosmer Limeshow goodness of fit test show that：χ 2=5.34，degree of freedom=8， P=0.72.A calibration curve indicated good consistency between the predicted probability of the model and the actual occurrence rate，with good accuracy.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of Lying Flat behaviors and its association with depressive symptoms among Chinese college students, so as to provide a scientific basis for promoting the physical and mental health development of adolescents. Methods: From July to October 2023, three universities were selected through convenient sampling from Jiangxi Province, Liaoning Province and Beijing City, respectively. Selfdesigned questionnaire links were distributed on campus to collect basic information and Lying Flat behaviors among college students, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was utilized to screen for students with depressive symptoms. Finally, a total of 4 225 valid questionnaires were obtained. Chisquare was used to compare of report rates of Lying Flat behaviors across different demographic characteristics. Ordered Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between Lying Flat behaviors and depressive symptoms, with Z test used to assess variations in the strength of associations. Results: The reporting rates of academic, life, and social Lying Flat were 32.7%, 17.8% and 17.5%, respectively. And 6.7% of the participants were found of all three Lying Flat behaviors simultaneously.Among college students with three Lying Flat behaviors, the constituent ratios of no, mild, moderate and above depressive symptoms were 9.9%, 30.5% and 59.6%, respectively. Additionally, college students who had three Lying Flat behaviors were more likely to show mild, moderate and above depressive symptoms [OR(95%CI)=2.49(1.60-3.87), 7.69(5.01-11.79), P<0.01]. Conclusions Academic Lying Flat behavior is most prevalent among college students. Academic, life and social Lying Flat behaviors are all significantly positively correlated with depressive symptoms. Attention should be paid to the Lying Flat behaviors and college students psychological health conditions to promote their physical and mental health development.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of N-(2R,3R,4R,5R,6R-pentahydroxyhexyl)-(N-disubstituted sodium formate)-L-methylthio-glutamate sodium (GMDTC) against cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) in rats. Methods Specific pathogen free male adult SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, model group, low-dose group and high-dose group, with eight rats in each group. The rats in the latter three groups were injected with cisplatin at a dose of 4 mg/kg body mass through the tail vein to establish an AKI model, while the control group was not treated. Rats in the low-dose and high-dose groups were injected with injectable GMDTC at doses of 108 and 433 mg/kg body mass through the tail vein, respectively, in two hours after intoxication, while the rats in the model group were injected with an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, once per day for five consecutive days. The 24-hours urine platinum level at day 1, 3, 5 and the level of whole blood platinum, serum platinum, urinary platinum and renal platinum at day 6 were determined using the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry after GMDTC administration. Serum renal functional indicators and electrolyte level were detected, and renal histopathology was observed at day 6 after GMDTC administration. Results The levels of serum urea, serum creatinine, serum calcium ion, whole blood platinum, serum platinum and renal platinum, and the score of renal tubular injury in the model group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The 24-hours urinary platinum level at day 1, 3 and 5 after GMDTC administration in the model group was also higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), and AKI changes were observed in histopathology. The levels of serum urea, serum creatinine, serum calcium ion, whole blood platinum, serum platinum, renal platinum, and renal tubular injury scores of rats in the low- and high-dose groups decreased compared with that in the model group (all P<0.05). The 24-hour urinary platinum levels on the first day after GMDTC administration of rats in the low- and high-dose groups increased compared with that in the model group (all P<0.05), as well as the renal histopathological changes of AKI were improved. However, there was no significant difference in the above-mentioned indicators between the low- and high-dose groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion GMDTC can promote the elimination of platinum in urine, effectively reduce the platinum level in blood and renal tissues, alleviate the pathological damage of renal tubules in rats, and improve the cisplatin-induced AKI.

Objective To analyze the ability of micro-implant nails placed in different locations in the posterior re-gion to improve the hard and soft tissues of the labiodental region in patients with gummy smiles to provide a reference for clinicians.Methods This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent was ob-tained from the patients.Thirty young female patients with anterior tooth protrusions and gummy smiles were included in the retrospective study;18 patients had micro-implant nails implanted between the premolars(group A),and 12 pa-tients had implant nails placed between the roots of the premolar and the molar and an intraoperatively placed rocking-chair archwire(group B).The preoperative and postoperative distances from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the lower point of the upper lip(U1-Stms),the vertical distance from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the palatal plane(U1-PP),the vertical distance from the point of the alveolar ridge to the palatal plane(Spr-PP),the dis-tance from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the point of the alveolar margin(U1-Spr),and the vertical dis-tance from the point of the proximal middle buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar to the palatal plane of the maxillary first molar(U6-PP)were measured in the cephalometric lateral radiographs of the two groups;additionally,the amount of hard and soft tissues of the upper anterior region exposedduring smiling and the maximum amount of gingiva exposed during smiling were assessed from the smile photograph.Results After correction,the lip-dentition relationship im-proved significantly in both groups,with an average reduction of 2.6 mm in U1-Stms,2.4 mm in U1-PP,1.4 mm in Spr-PP,and 0.9 mm in U1-Spr in Group A.In group B,the U1-Stms was reduced by an average of 2.3 mm,the U1-PPs by an average of 1.6 mm,the Spr-PPs by 1.4 mm,and the U1-Spr by 0.2 mm.The difference between pre-and postoperative U6-PP in both groups was not significant(P＞0.05).Group A had greater ?U1-PP and ?U1-Spr changes than group B(P＜0.05).There was no difference between the two groups in terms of ?U1-Stms or ?Spr-PP(P＞0.05).The amount of soft and hard tissue exposed and maximum amount of gingiva exposed in the upper anterior region of the smile were reduced in 30 patients postoperatively,with group A having anaverage reduction of 70.19%of the preoperative amount of soft and hard tissue exposed in the upper anterior region and an average reduction of 24.12%of the preoperative max-imum amount of gingiva exposed,and group B having an average reduction of 76.12%of the preoperative amount of hard and soft tissue exposed in the upper anterior region and an average reduction of 31.88%of the preoperative maxi-mum gingiva exposed after the operation.The difference in the ratio between the two groups was not statistically sig-nificant(P＞0.05).Conclusion For patients with proptosis and gummy smiles,placing micro-implant nails between the roots of maxillary premolars can effectively lead to retraction and intrusion of anterior teeth to improve the lip-denti-tion relationship and improve gummy smile,and placing micro-implant nails between the roots of the maxillary second premolar and the first molar together with the use of rocking chair arches can also achieve a good therapeutic effect.

Objective:To investigate whether long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) AW112010 can improve insulin resistance in aging adipocytes through the miR-204/POU2F2 signaling pathway.Methods:In vivo experiment: C57BL/6 mice were divided into young control group(4 months old) and aging model group(18 months old) based on body weight. The expression levels of AW112010, miR-204-5p, POU2F2, aging related indicators(p16, p21), and insulin signaling pathway genes [insulin receptor(INSR), insulin receptor substrate 1(IRS1), phosphatidylinositol kinase(PI3K), protein kinase B(AKT)] in epididymal adipose tissue were detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR) and Western blotting. In vitro experiment: Using adriamycin(ADR) to induce 3T3-L1 aging adipocyte model, β-gal staining was used to observe cellular senescence, and miR-204 inhibitor and miR-204 mimic small interfering RNA were successfully constructed and transfected into 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Results:RT-qPCR and Western blot results showed that compared with the young group, the expression of AW112010 in the adipose tissue of aging mice was increased, while the expression of miR-204-5p was decreased. The expressions of POU2F2, p16, and p21 in the adipose tissue of aging mice were increased, while the expressions of INSR, IRS1, PI3K, GLUT4 mRNA and protein were decreased. The β-gal stainging results showed that the number of 3T3-L1 senescent adipocytes induced by ADR was significantly increased, and the expression levels of AW112010, POU2F2, p16, and p21 in ADR-induced senescent adipocytes were increased compared with the control group, while the expression levels of miR-204-5p, INSR, IRS1, PI3K, GLUT4 were decreased, and remaining glucose in the culture medium was increased. Compared with control, overexpression of miR-204 resulted in decreased expressions of aging indicators p16, p21, and target gene POU2F2 while the expressions of INSR and GLUT4 were increased.Conclusion:Upregulation of lncRNA AW112010 in adipocytes of aging mice may induce insulin resistance by targeting miR-204-5p/POU2F2/IRS1.

Objective To investigate the initial dose and safety of intravenous infusion of sodium (s)-2-(dithiocarboxylato((2R,3R,4R,5R,6R)-2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexyl) amino)-4-(methylthio) butanoate (GMDTC) for the displacement of cadmium. Methodsi) Efficacy test. The New Zealand male rabbits were randomly divided into model group, calcium disodium edetate (EDTA) group and GMDTC low-, medium- and high-dose groups after cadmium poisoning using 2.5 cadmium chloride dihydrate. Rabbits in EDTA group were intravenously injected with EDTA dipotassium at a dose of 93.5 mg/kg body weight, rabbits in the three doses groups were intravenously injected of GMDTC at doses of 12.0, 36.0, and 108.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively. The rabbits in the control group (separate set) and model group were intravenously injected with equal volumes of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, administered for five consecutive days per week for 1, 2, and 4 weeks. ii) Toxicity test. Specific pathogen free SD rats were randomly divided into solvent control group and low-, medium- and high-dose groups. In the acute toxicity test, the rats in the three-dose groups were intravenously injected of GMDTC at doses of 200.0, 800.0 and 3 000.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively. In the long-term toxicity test, the rats in the three-dose groups were intravenously injected GMDTC at doses of 100.0, 500.0 and 2 000.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively, once a day for four consecutive weeks, with a recovery period of four weeks. The rats in the solvent control group were given an equal volume 0.9% sodium chloride solution intravenously at the same time. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and no observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) were detected. Resultsi) In the one week treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in the three doses groups were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05). In the two weeks treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in medium-dose and high-dose groups at the three time points were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05). In the four weeks treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium level on the 19th day of rabbits in the low-dose group was higher than that in the model group at the same time point (P<0.05), and the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in medium- and high-dose groups at the five time points were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05), except for the rabbits of fifth day of the medium-dose group. The kidney cadmium levels of rabbits in the low-dose group after four week of treatment and in the medium- and high-dose groups after one, two, and four weeks of treatment decreased compared with the model group (all P<0.05). No obvious adverse effects were observed during the treatment. ii) The MTD of GMDTC in rats administered intravenously in a single dose was 3 000.0 mg/kg body weight. During the period of intravenous infuseion with GMDTC for four consecutive weeks, the blood drug level reached the peak at the end of the first and last administrations (eight min), and no clinical adverse reactions were observed during this period of time, nor was there any apparent accumulation. The NOAEL for intravenous infusion of GMDTC for four consecutive weeks in rats was 500.0 mg/kg body weight. Conclusion The initial dose of the GMDTC injection in the cadmium poisoning rabbit was 36.0 mg/kg body weight, and the recommended initial dose for human is 480.0 mg/person. Intravenous infusion of GMDTC is characterized by rapid absorption, rapid elimination, and no accumulation.
