RESUMO

Background: Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a key component for the success of the recently approved lecanemab and aducanumab. Patients with neuroinflammation-related conditions are associated with a higher risk for developing AD. Objective: Investigate the incidence of AD among patients with neuroinflammation-related conditions including epilepsy, hemorrhage stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: We used Optum's de-identified Clinformatics Data Mart Database (CDM). We derived covariate-matched cohorts including patients with neuroinflammation-related conditions and controls without the corresponding condition. The matched cohorts were: 1) patients with epilepsy and controls (N = 67,825 matched pairs); 2) patients with hemorrhage stroke and controls (N = 81,510 matched pairs); 3) patients with MS and controls (N = 9,853 matched pairs); and 4) patients TBI and controls (N = 104,637 matched pairs). We used the Cox model to investigate the associations between neuroinflammation-related conditions and AD. Results: We identified that epilepsy, hemorrhage stroke, and TBI were associated with increased risks of AD in both males and females (hazard ratios [HRs]≥1.74, p < 0.001), as well as in gender- and race-conscious subpopulations (HRs≥1.64, p < 0.001). We identified that MS was associated with increased risks of AD in both males and females (HRs≥1.47, p≤0.004), while gender- and race-conscious subgroup analysis shown mixed associations. Conclusions: Patients with epilepsy, hemorrhage stroke, MS, and/or TBI are associated with a higher risk of developing AD. More attention on cognitive status should be given to older patients with these conditions.

RESUMO

Background: As the main driver of talent cultivation in colleges and universities, the learning and development level of college students is a core indicator of the quality of talent cultivation. The current status of college students' learning has always been a heavily researched topic. However, there is a lack of academic research on the potential mechanisms of self-control about how it affects college students' learning engagement. This study explored the relationship between college students' self-control and learning engagement and the potential mechanisms underlying this relationship with reference to a large sample. Methods: A total of 765 college students from Guangxi, China, completed the self-control scale, the resilience scale, the positive emotions scale, and the learning engagement scale. SPSS 26.0 was used to conduct common method bias tests, descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and regression analyses. Structural equation modeling was constructed using AMOS 26.0, and mediation effects were tested. Results: This article mainly used questionnaires to collect data and, on this basis, examined the relationship between self-control, resilience, positive emotions, and the learning engagement of college students. The results showed that (1) self-control positively affected college students' learning engagement; (2) resilience partially mediated the relationship between self-control and college students' learning engagement; (3) positive emotions partially mediated the relationship between self-control and college students' learning engagement; and (4) resilience and positive emotions played a chain-mediating role between self-control and college students' learning engagement. Conclusion: The present study identifies the potential mechanism underlying the association between the self-control and learning engagement of college students. The results of this study have practical implications for enhancing the learning engagement of Chinese college students by increasing their psychological resources and improving the teaching of university teachers.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Polypharmacy is common and is associated with higher risk of adverse drug event (ADE) among older adults. Knowledge on the ADE risk level of exposure to different drug combinations is critical for safe polypharmacy practice, while approaches for this type of knowledge discovery are limited. The objective of this study was to apply an innovative data mining approach to discover high-risk and alternative low-risk high-order drug combinations (e.g., three- and four-drug combinations). METHODS: A cohort of older adults (≥ 65 years) who visited an emergency department (ED) were identified from Medicare fee-for-service and MarketScan Medicare supplemental data. We used International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes to identify ADE cases potentially induced by anticoagulants, antidiabetic drugs, and opioids from ED visit records. We assessed drug exposure data during a 30-day window prior to the ED visit dates. We investigated relationships between exposure of drug combinations and ADEs under the case-control setting. We applied the mixture drug-count response model to identify high-order drug combinations associated with an increased risk of ADE. We conducted therapeutic class-based mining to reveal low-risk alternative drug combinations for high-order drug combinations associated with an increased risk of ADE. RESULTS: We investigated frequent high-order drug combinations from 8.4 million ED visit records (5.1 million from Medicare data and 3.3 million from MarketScan data). We identified 5213 high-order drug combinations associated with an increased risk of ADE by controlling the false discovery rate at 0.01. We identified 1904 high-order, high-risk drug combinations had potential low-risk alternative drug combinations, where each high-order, high-risk drug combination and its corresponding low-risk alternative drug combination(s) have similar therapeutic classes. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated the application of a data mining technique to discover high-order drug combinations associated with an increased risk of ADE. We identified high-risk, high-order drug combinations often have low-risk alternative drug combinations in similar therapeutic classes.

RESUMO

Adverse drug event (ADE) is a significant challenge in clinical practice. Many ADEs have not been identified timely after the approval of the corresponding drugs. Despite the use of drug similarity network demonstrates early success on improving ADE detection, false discovery rate (FDR) control remains unclear in its application. Additionally, performance of early ADE detection has not been explicitly investigated under the time-to-event framework. In this manuscript, we propose to use the drug similarity based posterior probability of null hypothesis for early ADE detection. The proposed approach is also able to control FDR for monitoring a large number of ADEs of multiple drugs. The proposed approach outperforms existing approaches on mining labeled ADEs in the US FDA's Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data, especially in the first few years after the drug initial reporting time. Additionally, the proposed approach is able to identify more labeled ADEs and has significantly lower time to ADE detection. In simulation study, the proposed approach demonstrates proper FDR control, as well as has better true positive rate and an excellent true negative rate. In our exemplified FAERS analysis, the proposed approach detects new ADE signals and identifies ADE signals in a timelier fashion than existing approach. In conclusion, the proposed approach is able to both reduce the time and improve the FDR control for ADE detection.

RESUMO

The residual and scattered small tumor tissue or cells after surgery are the main reason for tumor recurrence. Chemotherapy has a powerful ability to eradicate tumors but always accompanied by serious side effects. In this work, tissue-affinity mercapto gelatin (GelS) and dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HAD) were employed to fabricate a hybridized cross-linked hydrogel scaffold (HG) by multiple chemical reactions, which could integrate the doxorubicin (DOX) loaded reduction-responsive nano-micelle (PP/DOX) into this scaffold via click reaction to obtain the bioabsorbable nano-micelle hybridized hydrogel scaffold (HGMP). With the degradation of HGMP, PP/DOX was slowly released and formed targeted PP/DOX with degraded gelatin fragments as target molecules, which increased the intracellular accumulation, and inhibited the aggregation of B16F10 cells in vitro. In mouse models, HGMP absorbed the scattered B16F10 cells and released targeted PP/DOX to suppress tumorigenesis. For another, implantation of HGMP at the surgical site reduced the recurrence rate of postoperative melanoma and inhibited the growth of recurrent tumors. Meanwhile, HGMP significantly relieved the damage of free DOX to hair follicle tissue. This bioabsorbable nano-micelle hybridized hydrogel scaffold provided a valuable strategy for adjuvant therapy after tumor surgery.

RESUMO

Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China's pharmaceutical industry from 2000 to 2019, this paper proposes to combine the super efficiency SBM model and GML productivity index to calculate the static and dynamic green total factor productivity (GTFP). Then, the Tobit model is adopted for regression analysis on how environmental regulations, government R&D subsidies, and their cross-terms affect the GTFP. Findings suggest that: (1) Static analysis reveals that the GTFP in China's pharmaceutical industry is markedly different among provinces and regions, and the dynamic analysis shows an upward trend from 2000 to 2019. (2) The GTFP of the pharmaceutical industry and environmental rules are connected in a U-shape. The government R&D subsidies to GTFP are positive and significant, and with the expansion of government R&D subsidies, the promotion effect of environmental regulations on GTFP is enhanced. Therefore, it is necessary to set up differentiated environmental regulations systems in different provinces and increase R&D subsidies to promote the pharmaceutical industry's green development.

RESUMO

Although checkpoint-inhibitor immunotherapy held tremendous advances, improving immune response during treatment has always been an urgent clinical issue. With the help of mRNA microarray technology, it was found that short rod-like nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) promoted the upregulation of CD274 and PD-L1 related gene transcription, which was confirmed by the significantly enhanced PD-L1 expression level in B16, B16F10, and 4T1 cells in vitro. Hence, an injectable in situ responsive hydrogel reservoir embed with nHA and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor was engineered for a combination immunotherapy by peritumoral administration. The results confirmed that the combinational strategy effectively suppressed tumorigenesis and tumor growth, recovered the abnormal lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate transaminase, and alanine aminotransferase indicators, and significantly elongated the life span of a tumor-bearing mouse. The substantive progress mainly derived from nHA-induced T cell infiltration reinforcement in a tumor site and CD8+ T cell polarization in spleen, implying that nHA might function as an immunomodulator for melanoma immunotherapy.

RESUMO

Natural polymer hydrogels have good mechanical properties and biocompatibility. This study designed hydroxyapatite-enhanced photo-oxidized double-crosslinked hydrogels. Hyaluronic acid (HA) and gelatin (Gel) were modified with methacrylate anhydride. The catechin group was further introduced into the HA chain inspired by the adhesion chemistry of marine mussels. Hence, the double-crosslinked hydrogel (HG) was formed by the photo-crosslinking of double bonds and the oxidative-crosslinking of catechins. Moreover, hydroxyapatite was introduced into HG to form hydroxyapatite-enhanced hydrogels (HGH). The results indicate that, with an increase in crosslinking network density, the stiffness of hydrogels became higher; these hydrogels have more of a compact pore structure, their anti-degradation property is improved, and swelling property is reduced. The introduction of hydroxyapatite greatly improved the mechanical properties of hydrogels, but there is no change in the stability and crosslinking network structure of hydrogels. These inorganic phase-enhanced hydrogels were expected to be applied to tissue engineering scaffolds.

RESUMO

The abnormal activation of the Wnt/ß-catenin signaling pathway and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in drug-resistant tumor cells and cancer stem cells (CSCs) stimulate tumor metastasis and recurrence. Here, a promising combined chemotherapeutic strategy of salinomycin (SL) and doxorubicin (DOX) with specific inhibition of tumor stemness by a targeted co-delivery nanosystem was developed to overcome this abnormal progression. This strategy could be benefit drugs to effectively penetrate and infiltrate into spheres of 3D-cultured breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). The expression of the Wnt/ß-catenin signaling pathway-related genes (ß-catenin, LRP6, LEF1, and TCF12) and target genes (Cyclin D1, Cmyc, and Fibronectin) as well as CSC stemness-related genes (Oct4, Nanog, and Hes1) was downregulated by redox-sensitive co-delivery micelles decorated with oligohyaluronic acid as the active targeting moiety. The changes in EMT-associated gene expression (E-cadherin and Vimentin) in vitro showed that the EMT process was also effectively inverted. This strategy achieved a strong inhibitory effect on solid tumor growth and an effective reduction in the risk of tumor metastasis in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice in vivo and effectively alleviated splenomegaly caused by the malignant tumor. Immunohistochemical staining analysis of E-cadherin, Vimentin, and ß-catenin confirmed that the inversion of the EMT was also achieved in solid tumors. These results highlight the potential of SL and DOX combined chemotherapeutic strategy for eliminating breast carcinoma. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Cancer stem cells (CSCs), as an important part of tumor heterogeneity, can survive against conventional chemotherapy and initiate tumorigenesis, recurrence, and metastasis. Moreover, non-CSCs can convert into the CSC state through the abnormal Wnt/ß-catenin pathway, which is closely related to the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Here, redox-degradable binary drug-loaded micelles (PPH/DOX+SL) were designed to target CSCs and overcome drug resistance of breast cancer cells. The combined chemotherapy of salinomycin (SL) and doxorubicin (DOX) reversed drug resistance, while the PPH/DOX+SL micelles enhanced the intracellular accumulation and drug penetration of BCSC spheres. The introduction of SL downregulated the expression of tumor stemness genes and the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway-related genes and inverted the EMT process. PPH/DOX+SL continuously inhibited tumor growth and invasion in vivo.

RESUMO

Integrating these features of acid-activated positively charged surface and size contraction into single nanoparticle would be an effective strategy for enhancing cellular uptake, intratumoral penetration and accumulation. Here, hierarchical responsive micelle (HVDMs) was developed via RAFT reaction as multifunctional polymer-drug conjugate for maximizing penetration and therapeutic effect against MCF-7 tumor by combining positively charged surface with size contraction: surface zeta-potential reversal (-2 to +12 mV) by protonation of PHEME and size contraction (~81-~41 nm) by simultaneous hydrophobic/hydrophilic conversion (pH ≈ 6.7); the disintegration of hydrazone bond between hydrophobic PVB and DOX triggered drug release (pH ≈ 5.0). The in vitro structural stabilization, cellular uptake and anti-proliferative efficiency were significantly higher than other control groups (CVDMs and HSDMs) at pH 6.7. The markedly increased penetration depth, cellular internalization and anti-tumor efficiency were confirmed in 3D MCSs spheroids at pH 6.7, and the ex vivo DOX fluorescence images further verified obvious penetration and accumulation in internal region of solid tumor. The antitumor effect in vivo demonstrated that HVDMs accelerated tumor atrophy, induced intratumoral cells apoptosis and alleviated system toxicity.

RESUMO

For reversing the treatment failure in P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-associated MDR (multidrug resistance) of breast cancer, a high dose of Lapatinib (Lap), a substrate of breast cancer-resistant protein, was encapsulated into safe and effective acid-cleavable polysaccharide-doxorubicin (Dox) conjugates to form targeted HPP-Dox/Lap nanoparticles with an optimal drug ratio and appropriate nanosize decorated with oligomeric hyaluronic acid (HA) for specially targeting overexpressed CD44 receptors of MCF-7/ADR. The markedly increased cellular uptake and the strongest synergetic cytotoxicity revealed the enhanced reversal efficiency of HPP-Dox/Lap nanoparticles with reversal multiples at 29.83. This was also verified by the enhanced penetrating capacity in multicellular tumor spheroids. The reinforced Dox retention and substantial down-regulation of P-gp expression implied the possible mechanism of MDR reversal. Furthermore, the efficient ex vivo accumulation and distribution of nanoparticles in the tumor site and the high tumor growth inhibition (93%) even at a lower dosage (1 mg/kg) as well as lung metastasis inhibition in vivo with negligible side effects revealed the overwhelming advantages of targeted polysaccharide nanoparticles and Lap-sensitizing effect against drug-resistant tumor. The development of an efficient and nontoxic-targeted polysaccharide delivery system for reversing MDR by synergistic therapy might provide a potential clinical application value.

RESUMO

Surgical resection and chemotherapy are routinely performed for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) because it is insensitive to endocrine therapy and molecular targeted therapy. Here, the optimal surface charge (-28 mV) and particle size (51 nm) enabled the acid-labile hyaluronic acid pullulan prodrug (HPP)-doxorubicin (Dox)/lapatinib (Lap) conjugate to circulate in the blood for a lengthy period of time and enhance the electron paramagnetic resonance effect, while the targeted molecule hyaluronic acid accelerated CD44 receptor-mediated 4T1 cell internalization. The inefficient anti-proliferation capability of Lap increased more than 10-fold after sensitization of Dox to metastatic 4T1 cells, while cellular uptake significantly increased, and cell viability dramatically decreased to nearly 20% of the free Dox group. Furthermore, HPP-Dox/Lap more effectively inhibited lateral mobility, vertical migration, and invasion ability of 4T1 cells. The ex vivo biodistribution of representative Dox indicated that Lap obviously facilitated the intratumoral infiltration and accumulation. The in vivo research revealed that there were overwhelming advantages in using HPP-Dox/Lap to inhibit tumor growth, progression, and lung metastasis even at a low dosage (1 mg kg-1), and it decreased postoperative recurrence and pulmonary metastatic nodules. Because of the excellent biosafety and visible therapeutic effect on the 4T1 metastasis and recurrence model, there is great potential value for HPP-Dox/Lap to be used to treat metastatic TNBC.

RESUMO

Cell culture has become an indispensable tool to uncover fundamental biophysical and biomolecular mechanisms of cells assembling into tissues. An important advancement in cell culture techniques was the introduction of three-dimensional (3D) culture systems. In this study, the mutual fusion of chondrocyte pellets was promoted in order to produce large-sized tissue-engineered cartilage by a multiplexed 3D hanging drop culture and agarose mold method to optimize the means of cultivation. Cell proliferation, aggregation, cell morphology maintenance as well as cartilage related gene expression and matrix secretion in vitro and subcutaneous implantation models were evaluated. These results indicated that the multiplexed 3D hanging drop culture involving the fusion of small pellets into a large structure enabled the efficient production of 3D tissue engineered cartilage that was closer to physiological cartilage tissue in comparison to that of the agarose mold method.

RESUMO

The residual tumor cells after chemotherapy, even in very small numbers, are generally drug-resistant and invasive, which might result in the progress of tumor metastasis and recurrence. In this research, a new combination chemotherapy strategy of salinomycin (SL) that could selectively inhibit multidrug-resistant tumor cells and a traditional broad-spectrum antitumor drug, doxorubicin (DOX), based on redox-degradable nano-micelles was developed to overcome drug resistance in vitro. The results in vitro indicated that DOX + SL co-loaded nano-micelles could not only escape from the drug efflux of adriamycin-resistant MCF-7 cells (A/MCF-7) but also penetrated and infiltrated into 3D-cultured MCF-7 and 4T1 tumor spheres in vitro more effectively, resulting in a strong antiproliferative effect. In the allogeneic metastatic 4T1 tumor model, the combination chemotherapy of DOX + SL encapsulated in nano-micelles effectively suppressed tumor growth with no splenomegaly and no other major tissue damage, and reversed the EMT progress, and inhibited tumor recurrence and metastasis more effectively after drug withdrawal.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Five-year survival rate at early lung tumour was about 70%; however, its early diagnosis rate was still at a low level, so the enhancement of diagnosis level for early lung tumour is the key factor to increase the survival rate. Diagnosis and therapy of early lung tumour are still challenged. METHODS: The magnetic nanochains (NCs) with biocompatibility and transverse relaxivity (r2  = 231 Fe mmol l-1  s-1 ) were fabricated through a co-precipitation method in the assistance of dextran, and then, linked with chlorotoxin (CTX) and curcumin (Cur) via the PEGylation and carbodiimide technique (named as CTX-NCs-Cur). RESULTS: The results of cell test indicated that CTX-conjugated NCs could obviously target non-small-cell lung cancer cells and limit their growth. The in vivo results of magnetic resonance imaging and fluorescence imaging indicated that the CTX-NCs-Cur significantly targeted the tumour site and enhanced images contrast of the small-size tumour. Moreover, the results of everyday tail-vein injection confirmed that CTX-NCs-Cur could significantly limit the growth of early tumour, due to blocking Cl ion channels from CTX-NCs-Cur-MMP-2 composite and intracellular ROS increase from Cur treatment. CONCLUSIONS: We provided a mechanism about the effect of CTX-NCs-Cur on the targeting and limiting early tumour, and these results indicated the application foreground of CTX-NCs-Cur in tumour diagnosis and therapy.
