RESUMO
The management and comprehension of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) continues to pose a significant challenge. By integrating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data of 15 patients with plasma cell disorders (PCDs) and proteomic data obtained from mass spectrometry-based analysis of CD138+ plasma cells (PCs) from 144 PCDs patients, we identified a state of malignant PCs characterized by high stemness score and increased proliferation originating from RRMM. This state has been designated as proliferating stem-like plasma cells (PSPCs). NUCKS1 was identified as the gene marker representing the stemness of PSPCs. Comparison of differentially expressed genes among various PC states revealed a significant elevation in LGALS1 expression in PSPCs. Survival analysis on the MMRF CoMMpass dataset and GSE24080 dataset established LGALS1 as a gene associated with unfavourable prognostic implications for multiple myeloma. Ultimately, we discovered three specific ligand-receptor pairs within the midkine (MDK) signalling pathway network that play distinct roles in facilitating efficient cellular communication between PSPCs and the surrounding microenvironment cells. These insights have the potential to contribute to the understanding of molecular mechanism and the development of therapeutic strategies involving the application of stem-like cells in RRMM treatment.
RESUMO
STUDY QUESTION: Can pregnancy outcomes following fresh elective single embryo transfer (eSET) in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocols increase using a gonadotropin (Gn) step-down approach with cessation of GnRH antagonist on the day of hCG administration (hCG day) in patients with normal ovarian response? SUMMARY ANSWER: The modified GnRH antagonist protocol using the Gn step-down approach and cessation of GnRH antagonist on the hCG day is effective in improving live birth rates (LBRs) per fresh eSET cycle. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Currently, there is no consensus on optimal GnRH antagonist regimens. Studies have shown that fresh GnRH antagonist cycles result in poorer pregnancy outcomes than the long GnRH agonist (GnRHa) protocol. Endometrial receptivity is a key factor that contributes to this phenomenon. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION: An open label randomized controlled trial (RCT) was performed between November 2021 and August 2022. There were 546 patients allocated to either the modified GnRH antagonist or the conventional antagonist protocol at a 1:1 ratio. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS: Both IVF and ICSI cycles were included, and the sperm samples used were either fresh or frozen from the partner, or from frozen donor ejaculates. The primary outcome was the LBRs per fresh SET cycle. Secondary outcomes included rates of implantation, clinical and ongoing pregnancy, miscarriage, and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), as well as clinical outcomes of ovarian stimulation. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE: Baseline demographic features were not significantly different between the two ovarian stimulation groups. However, in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population, the LBRs in the modified antagonist group were significantly higher than in the conventional group (38.1% [104/273] vs. 27.5% [75/273], relative risk 1.39 [95% CI, 1.09-1.77], P = 0.008). Using a per-protocol (PP) analysis which included all the patients who received an embryo transfer, the LBRs in the modified antagonist group were also significantly higher than in the conventional group (48.6% [103/212] vs. 36.8% [74/201], relative risk 1.32 [95% CI, 1.05-1.66], P = 0.016). The modified antagonist group achieved significantly higher implantation rates, and clinical and ongoing pregnancy rates than the conventional group in both the ITT and PP analyses (P < 0.05). The two groups did not show significant differences between the number of oocytes retrieved or mature oocytes, two-pronuclear zygote (2PN) rates, the number of embryos obtained, blastocyst progression and good-quality embryo rates, early miscarriage rates, or OHSS incidence rates (P > 0.05). LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION: A limitation of our study was that the subjects were not blinded to the treatment allocation in the RCT trial. Only women under 40 years of age who had a good prognosis were included in the analysis. Therefore, use of the modified antagonist protocol in older patients with a low ovarian reserve remains to be investigated. In addition, the sample size for Day 5 elective SET was small, so larger trials will be required to strengthen these findings. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS: The modified GnRH antagonist protocol using the Gn step-down approach and cessation of GnRH antagonist on hCG day improved the LBRs per fresh eSET cycle in normal responders.

RESUMO
Dragon's Blood (DB) serves as a precious Chinese medicine facilitating blood circulation and stasis dispersion. Daemonorops draco (D. draco; Qi-Lin-Jie) and Dracaena cochinchinensis (D. cochinchinenesis; Long-Xue-Jie) are two reputable plant sources for preparing DB. This work was designed to comprehensively characterize and compare the metabolome differences between D. draco and D. cochinchinenesis, by integrating liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry and untargeted metabolomics analysis. Offline two-dimensional liquid chromatography/ion mobility-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (2D-LC/IM-QTOF-MS), by utilizing a powerful hybrid scan approach, was elaborated for multicomponent characterization. Configuration of an XBridge Amide column and an HSS T3 column in offline mode exhibited high orthogonality (A0 0.80) in separating the complex components in DB. Particularly, the hybrid high-definition MSE-high definition data-dependent acquisition (HDMSE-HDDDA) in both positive and negative ion modes was applied for data acquisition. Streamlined intelligent data processing facilitated by the UNIFI™ (Waters) bioinformatics platform and searching against an in-house chemical library (recording 223 known compounds) enabled efficient structural elucidation. We could characterize 285 components, including 143 from D. draco and 174 from D. cochinchinensis. Holistic comparison of the metabolomes among 21 batches of DB samples by the untargeted metabolomics workflows unveiled 43 significantly differential components. Separately, four and three components were considered as the marker compounds for identifying D. draco and D. cochinchinenesis, respectively. Conclusively, the chemical composition and metabolomic differences of two DB resources were investigated by a dimension-enhanced analytical approach, with the results being beneficial to quality control and the differentiated clinical application of DB.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment for totally occlusive lesions of the subclavian artery (SCA). METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on 57 patients treated with angioplasty and stenting, including 42 males and 15 females, with an average age of 61.8 years (range: 49 to 81 years). Efficacy, safety, and complications were evaluated. RESULTS: Procedural success was achieved for 47/57 patients and symptoms were relieved. Rat-tail occlusion is the most common type, and all cases were successfully recanalized. Plain type occlusion is less common with a recanalization rate of 55.6%. Hilly and plain occlusions are the main types of stent implantation failure. Through univariate analysis and trend matching analysis, the type of SCA occlusion and surgical approach had statistical significance on the success rate of surgery. The mean follow-up time was 34.6 ± 16.2 months. The cumulative stent patency rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 95.5%, 86.4%, and 77.3% in the calcified plaque group and 92.0%, 76.0%, and 68.0% in the non-calcified plaque group, respectively. The 3-year and 5-year patency rates in the calcified plaque group were higher than those in the non-calcified plaque group (p < .05). CONCLUSION: Different occlusion types and surgical approaches can affect the surgical success rate. The combined femoral and brachial approach can improve the rate of recanalization of SCA occlusions. The patency rates at 3 and 5 years in the calcified plaque group were higher than those in the non-calcified plaque group.
RESUMO
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) decreases cardiac function and efficiency. Accumulating evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been linked to the cellular processes of myocardial I/R injury. The present investigation elucidated the function of lncRNA colon cancer-associated transcript 2 (CCAT2) in myocardial I/R injury and the related mechanisms.AC16 cardiomyocytes were exposed to hypoxia (16 hours) /reoxygenation (6 hours) (H/R) to mimic myocardial I/R models in vitro. CCAT2 and microRNA (miR) -539-3p expressions in AC16 cardiomyocytes were measured using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus insertion region 1 (BMI1) protein levels in AC16 cardiomyocytes were determined by western blotting. Cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, mitochondrial membrane potential, and apoptosis were detected using Counting Kit-8, LDH Assay Kit, dihydroethidium assay, 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro1,1',3,3'-tetramethylbenzimidazolylcarbocyanine iodide staining, flow cytometry, and western blotting, respectively. The interactions between the molecules were confirmed using the dual-luciferase gene reporter. The wingless/integrated/beta-catenin (Wnt/ß-catenin) pathway under the H/R condition was detected by western blotting.CCAT2 and BMI1 mRNA expressions were reduced in H/R-exposed AC16 cardiomyocytes. CCAT2 overexpression exerted protective effects against H/R-induced cardiomyocyte injury, as demonstrated by increased cell viability and mitochondrial membrane potential and decreased LDH leakage, ROS levels, and apoptosis. In addition, CCAT2 positively regulated BMI1 expression by binding to miR-539-3p. CCAT2 knockdown or miR-539-3p overexpression restrained the protective effects of BMI1 against H/R-induced cardiomyocyte injury. In addition, miR-539-3p overexpression reversed the protective effects of CCAT2. Furthermore, CCAT2 activated the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway under the H/R condition via the miR-539-3p/BMI1 axis.Overall, this investigation showed the protective effects of the CCAT2/miR-539-3p/BMI1/Wnt/ß-catenin regulatory axis against cardiomyocyte injury induced by H/R.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are widely used as important ingredients for other nitrogen-containing molecules. Here, we report the sustainable production of amino acids from biomass-derived hydroxy acids with high activity under visible-light irradiation and mild conditions, using atomic ruthenium-promoted cadmium sulfide (Ru1/CdS). On a metal basis, the optimized Ru1/CdS exhibits a maximal alanine formation rate of 26.0â molAla â gRu -1 â h-1, which is 1.7â times and more than two orders of magnitude higher than that of its nanoparticle counterpart and the conventional thermocatalytic process, respectively. Integrated spectroscopic analysis and density functional theory calculations attribute the high performance of Ru1/CdS to the facilitated charge separation and O-H bond dissociation of the α-hydroxy group, here of lactic acid. The operando nuclear magnetic resonance further infers a unique "double activation" mechanism of both the CH-OH and CH3-CH-OH structures in lactic acid, which significantly accelerates its photocatalytic amination toward alanine.

BACKGROUND: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) or OCT angiography (OCTA) has been investigated in few research studies of psychiatric disorders. No research has been done using OCT or OCTA in patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD). METHODS: OCTA measured foveal avascular zone (FAZ), macular vessel density (MVD), and peripapillary vessel density (PVD). OCT measured the peripapillary retinal fiber layer (RNFL) and central retinal thickness (CRT). The study utilized the Ottawa Self-Injury Inventory, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA), and Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) to assess the symptom characteristics of individuals with BPD. RESULTS: Fifty-nine eyes of BPD patients and 58 eyes of normal subjects were analyzed, MVD of the superficial retinal capillary plexus declined noticeably in most subfields (p < 0.05). Significant differences were observed in the whole inner ring and outer ring index between BPD and HC groups (p < 0.05). The patients with BPD exhibited lower RNFL and CRT, the difference was significant (p < 0.05). CRT indicated a significant negative correlation with the Ottawa Self-Injury Inventory (p < 0.05). In addition, we observed that there was a negative correlation identified between the MVD of the inner ring and HAMA (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, the MVD of the outer ring was positively correlated with GAF (p < 0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) for distinguishing BPD and HC eyes in OCTA were the highest for fovea MVD (0.679), followed by outer ring MVD (0.669), inner ring MVD (0.641), FAZ (0.579). In OCT, CRT was highest for BPD (0.711), followed by RNFL (0.625). CONCLUSION: The OCT and OCTA can non-invasively detect microvascular and morphology changes of the retina in BPD patients compared to healthy control subjects.

Immunotherapy had shown good antitumor activity in a variety of solid tumors, but low benefit in CRC, so there was an urgent need to explore new biomarkers. We evaluated the role of KMT2C using publicly available data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). In addition, further analysis was performed in an internal cohort. Moreover, the mutant profiles of KMT2C was analyzed in a large CRC cohort. The relationship between clinical pathologic features and KMT2C were analyzed with using the two-sided chi-squared test or the Fisher exact test. Clinicopathologic characteristics associated with overall survival using Cox regression and the Kaplan-Meier method. We found that KMT2C-mutated CRC patients in the immunotherapy cohort had significantly improved OS compared with KMT2C WT patients (P = 0.013). However, this phenomenon did not exist in non-immunotherapy cohort. Our cohort validated the value of KMT2C mutations in predicting better clinical outcomes, including ORR (P < 0.0001) and OS (P = 0.010). Meanwhile, KMT2C mutation was associated with higher tumor mutation burden, MSI score, higher levels of immune-associated T cells, neutrophil, and M1-type macrophages. Our study suggested that KMT2C mutation might be a potential positive predictor for CRC immunotherapy.

Introduction: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common and serious complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Elucidating the metabolic characteristics of SHPT may provide a new theoretical basis for its prevention and treatment. This study aimed to perform a metabolomic analysis of SHPT in patients with CKD stages 3-5 not receiving dialysis. Methods: A total of 76 patients with CKD, 85 patients with CKD-SHPT, and 67 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. CKD was diagnosed according to the criteria specified in the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes 2012 guidelines. SHPT was diagnosed by experienced clinicians according to the Renal Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative Clinical Practice Guidelines. Serum renal function markers and the lipid profile were analyzed. Untargeted ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to analyze the serum metabolites of patients with CKD and SHPT. Multivariate analysis of the data was performed using principal component analysis and partial least square discriminant analysis. Serum differential metabolites were identified and further characterized using databases. Pathway enrichment analysis was performed using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database. Correlations between differential metabolites and clinical parameters were determined using the Spearman correlation. Results: The serum metabolomic profiles of patients with CKD with and without SHPT differed significantly. Differential metabolites were mainly enriched in the top four Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways: phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis; sphingolipid metabolism; glycerophospholipid metabolism; and phenylalanine metabolism. In total, 31 differential metabolites were identified; of these, L-tryptophan and (R)-(+)-1-phenylethylamine were decreased, while other amino acids and their derivatives, uremia toxins, carnitine, and lipids, were increased significantly in patients with SHPT compared to those without. The 14 lipid metabolites were positively correlated with levels of Urea, serum creatinine, cystatin C, and triglycerides and negatively correlated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate and levels of total and high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Discussion: Disturbed amino acid and lipid metabolism were more apparent in patients with SHPT than in those without. This metabolomic profile of SHPT may provide a therapeutic foundation for its future clinical management.

BACKGROUND: Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by episodes of intense pruritus, elevated serum levels of alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin, and near-normal -glutamyl transferase. These episodes may persist for weeks to months before spontaneously resolving, with patients typically remaining asymptomatic between occurrences. Diagnosis entails the evaluation of clinical symptoms and targeted genetic testing. Although BRIC is recognized as a benign genetic disorder, the triggers, particularly psychosocial factors, remain poorly understood. CASE SUMMARY: An 18-year-old Chinese man presented with recurrent jaundice and pruritus after a cold, which was exacerbated by self-medication involving vitamin B and paracetamol. Clinical and laboratory evaluations revealed elevated levels of bilirubin and liver enzymes, in the absence of viral or autoimmune liver disease. Imaging excluded biliary and pancreatic abnormalities, and liver biopsy demonstrated centrilobular cholestasis, culminating in a BRIC diagnosis confirmed by the identification of a novel ATP8B1 gene mutation. Psychological assessment of the patient unveiled stress attributable to academic and familial pressures, regarded as potential triggers for BRIC. Initial relief was observed with ursodeoxycholic acid and cetirizine, followed by an adjustment of the treatment regimen in response to elevated liver enzymes. The patient's condition significantly improved following a stress-related episode, thanks to a comprehensive management approach that included psychosocial support and medical treatment. CONCLUSION: Our research highlights genetic and psychosocial influences on BRIC, emphasizing integrated diagnostic and management strategies.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to systematically examine and compare the characteristics distinguishing colorectal adenomatous polyps from normal mucosal intestinal microbiota. METHODS: A total of 30 specimens were obtained from patients diagnosed with colorectal adenomatous polyps (adenoma group) who underwent endoscopic removal at Wenzhou People's Hospital between September 2021 and November 2021. Concurrently, 30 normal mucosal specimens were collected from patients without adenomatous polyps (control group). Subsequently, microbiome total DNA extraction was carried out, followed by PCR amplification targeting the V3-V4 region of the 16S rDNA. High-throughput sequencing was conducted using the Illumina MiSeq platform. Subsequent to sequencing, bioinformatics analysis was used to assess the diversity, composition, and functional aspects of the intestinal microbiota in both study groups. RESULTS: A notable dissimilarity in the microbiota structure was identified, specifically within the transverse colon, between these two groups (Pâ <â 0.05). Species composition analysis revealed that Escherichia, Fusobacterium, and Bacteroides were predominant bacteria in both groups, with Escherichia and Enterobacter displaying significant differences at the genera level between the control group and the adenoma group (Pâ <â 0.05). Correlation analysis and functional prediction demonstrated substantial disparities in interactions among dominant intestinal microbial genera within patients from both groups. Additionally, it was discovered that the intestinal microbiomes in patients in the adenoma group exhibited a significantly higher pathogenic potential. CONCLUSION: Upon conducting a comprehensive analysis, it was discerned that the microbiota present in the transverse colon of the control group exhibited distinctive characteristics that may contribute to the maintenance of intestinal health.
RESUMO
Purpose: To reveal the clinical significance, pathological involvement and molecular mechanism of imprinted in Prader-Willi syndrome (IPW) in RPE anomalies that contribute to AMD. Methods: IPW expression under pathological conditions were detected by microarrays and qPCR assays. In vitro cultured fetal RPE cells were used to study the pathogenicity induced by IPW overexpression and to analyze its upstream and downstream regulatory networks. Results: We showed that IPW is upregulated in the macular RPE-choroid tissue of dry AMD patients and in fetal RPE cells under oxidative stress, inflammation and dedifferentiation. IPW overexpression in fetal RPE cells induced aberrant apical-basal polarization as shown by dysregulated polarized markers, disrupted tight and adherens junctions, and inhibited phagocytosis. IPW upregulation was also associated with RPE oxidative damages, as demonstrated by intracellular accumulation of reactive oxygen species, reduced cell proliferation, and accelerated cell apoptosis. Mechanically, N6-methyladenosine level of the IPW transcript regulated its stability with YTHDC1 as the reader. IPW mediated RPE features by suppressing MEG3 expression to sequester its inhibition on the AKT serine-threonine kinase (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. We also noticed that the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin suppresses the AKT/mTOR pathway to alleviate the IPW-induced RPE anomalies. Conclusions: We revealed that IPW overexpression in RPE induces aberrant apical-basal polarization and oxidative damages, thus contributing to AMD progression. We also annotated the upstream and downstream regulatory networks of IPW in RPE. Our findings shed new light on the molecular mechanisms of RPE dysfunctions, and indicate that IPW blockers may be a promising option to treat RPE abnormalities in AMD.

Background: Metabolic reprogramming is involved in different stages of tumorigenesis. There are six widely recognized tumor-associated metabolic pathways, including cholesterol catabolism process, fatty acid metabolism, glutamine metabolic process, glycolysis, one carbon metabolic process, and pentose phosphate process. This study aimed to classify gastric cancer patients into different metabolic bio-similar clusters. Method: We analyzed six tumor-associated metabolic pathways and calculated the metabolic pathway score through RNA-seq data using single sample gene set enrichment analysis. The consensus clustering analysis was performed to classify patients into different bio-similar clusters by multi-dimensional scaling. Kaplan-Meier curves were presented between different metabolic bio-similar groups for OS analysis. Results: A training set of 370 patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas database with primary gastric cancer was chosen. Patients were classified into four metabolic bio-similar clusters, which were identified as metabolic non-specificity, metabolic-active, cholesterol-silence, and metabolic-silence clusters. Survival analysis showed that patients in metabolic-active cluster and metabolic-silence cluster have significantly poor prognosis than other patients (p=0.031). Patients in metabolic-active cluster and metabolic-silence cluster had significantly higher intra-tumor heterogeneity than other patients (p=0.032). Further analysis was performed in metabolic-active cluster and cholesterol-silence cluster. Three cell-cycle-related pathways, including G2M checkpoints, E2F targets, and MYC targets, were significantly upregulated in metabolic-active cluster than in cholesterol-silence cluster. A validation set of 192 gastric cancer patients from the Gene Expression Omnibus data portal verified that metabolic bio-similar cluster can predict prognosis in gastric cancer. Conclusion: Our study established a multi-dimension metabolic prognostic model in gastric cancer, which may be feasible for predicting clinical outcome.
