Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a rare hereditary cornification disorder presented with abnormal skin scaling. In this paper, we used next-generation sequencing to determine the variants in a Chinese ARCI patient. We used sanger sequencing to verify bidirectionally the DNA from the proband and her parents. Results showes that two compound heterozygous variants (c.235G > T and c.641delG) in CYP4F22 gene, and both of the mutations are novel. The parents were heterozygous carriers. The two variants are classified as pathogenic variants based on interpretation guidelines. The compound heterozygous mutations in CYP4F22 gene were the causative mutations responsible for ARCI in proband.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of gastrointestinal neurilemmoma.Methods:A descriptive study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the clinical manifestations, endoscopic findings, pathological features, treatment methods and prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal neurilemmima diagnosed from May 2017 to November 2020 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong UniversityResults:A total of 19 patients were collected, ranging in age from 45.0 to 70.0 years old, of whom 68.4% (13/19) were female. The clinical symptoms are non-specific, and some patients are asymptomatic (15.8%(3/19)) and may present with abdominal pain (57.9%(11/19)), nausea (31.6%(6/19)), abdominal distension (21.1%(4/19)) and decreased appetite (21.1%(4/19)), and a few with gastrointestinal bleeding (5.3%(1/19)). Tumors were most frequently found in the gastric body (42.1%(8/19)), followed by the duodenum (15.8%(3/19)). Endoscopic submucosal mass is easy to be misdiagnosed as stromal tumor. The pathological type showed shuttle cell tumor, immunohistochemical staining showed positive S100 and Vim, most Ki-67 staining proliferation rate was <5% (57.9%(11/19)), and a small part was ≥10% (10.5%(2/19)). Treatment was either endoscopic or surgical. No tendency to recur and metastasize was found in any of the neurilemmimas.Conclusion:Gastrointestinal neurilemmoma is a very rare submucosal tumor of the digestive tract, most of which are benign and rare in malignancy, and postoperative pathology is the gold standard for its diagnosis. Gastrointestinal neurilemmoma is common in middle-aged female, with diverse and non-specific clinical symptoms, difficult to differentiate from submucosal tumors such as stromal tumors, and its tendency to malignant transformation increases with tumor enlargement. Endoscopic resection is recommended for tumors with tumor diameter <3 cm without serosal invasion, with little trauma and no recurrence.

【Objective】 To investigate the expressions of NLRP1 and NLRP3 in the colon of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients and analyze the correlation of the expressions with severity of UC, endoscopic manifestations and related laboratory indicators. 【Methods】 We collected biopsical specimens obtained with colonoscopy in 46 patients with UC (22 mild cases and 24 moderate to severe cases) and 20 cases of normal control group. We used the disease activity index to evaluate the Mayo UC inflammatory activity and immunohistochemical method to detect the protein expression levels of intestinal mucosal NLRP1 and NLRP3 in the tissue. RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of NLRP1 and NLRP3 mRNA in intestinal mucosal tissues. Meanwhile, the colonoscopy, serum uric acid, C-reactive protein, serum sedimentation rate, platelet count, low-density lipoprotein, and cholesterol of UC patients were also counted to further analyze the relationship between NLRP1 and NLRP3. 【Results】 The expressions of NLRP1 and NLRP3 protein and mRNA in colonic mucosal tissues of UC patients were significantly higher than those of normal controls (P<0.05). Compared with that in mild UC, the expression of NLRP1 in colonic mucosal tissues of moderate and severe UC patients was significantly increased (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expressions of NLRP1 and NLRP3 in colonic mucosal tissues of UC patients with different lesion ranges. NLRP1 expression was positively correlated with Mayo overall score, Mayo endoscopic score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C-reactive protein (P<0.05), NLRP3 expression was positively correlated with C-reactive protein (P<0.05), but not correlated with Mayo overall score, Mayo endoscopic score, or erythrocyte sedimentation rate. NLRP1 expression was positively correlated with low-density lipoprotein and platelet (P<0.05), but not with uric acid or cholesterol. NLRP3 was positively correlated with low-density lipoprotein, uric acid and cholesterol (P<0.05), but not with platelet. 【Conclusion】 NLRP1 and NLRP3 may be involved in the pathogenesis of UC and related to disease activity. Therefore, they can be used as molecular targets for targeted therapy, and NLRP1 can be used as a predictor of mucosal healing.

Objective To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of aldosterone escape in patients with non-diabetic nephropathy by RASI-therapy. Methods A total of 104 patients with non-diabetic nephropathy were treated with ARB or combination therapy of ACEI and ARB in a mean follow-up period of 12 months. Aldosterone escape was determined according to the change of plasma aldosterone concentration before and after treatment during 6-month and 12-month ACEI/ARB treatment, while the influencing factors of aldosterone escape in patients with non-diabetic nephropathy was also analyzed after therapy with RASI . Results In 12 months, the incidence of aldosterone escape was significantly higher than that in 6 months (26.92% vs. 14.42%, P = 0.007). After 12-month treatment, the difference was statistically significant in incidence of aldosterone escape among different stages of CKD (P = 0.027). Compared with 6-month incidence of aldosterone escape in the losartan group, 12-month incidence increased evidently (P = 0.020). The Ald level was positively correlated with urinary protein excretion and the Scr level (r = 0.431, P = 0.003 and r = 0.336, P = 0.009, respectively), and negetively correlated with levels of the eGFR (r = -0.275, P = 0.006). Univariate Logistic regression demonstrated that risk factors of aldosterone escape included pre-treatment values of the urinary protein excretion (OR = 3.671, P = 0.028) and the eGFR (OR = 0.972, P = 0.019). Multivariate Logistic model revealed pre-treatment values of the eGFR was positively associated with aldosterone escape (OR = 0.970, P = 0.012). Conclusion The incidence of the aldosterone escape increases along with the time of treatment. Renal function has correlated with aldosterone escape and pre-treatment value of the eGFR is an independent risk factor of aldosterone escape.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the expression status of CXCR7 in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The expression status of CXCR7 was detected in 35 primary gastric cancer tissues and matched adjacent tissues by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. The correlation of CXCR7 expression with the clinicopathological parameters and risk factors of gastric cancer was analyzed. The expression of CXCR7 in gastric cell lines (HGC-27, MGC-803, BGC-823, SGC-7901 and MKN-28) was also detected by immunofluorescence assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The expression of CXCR7 was significantly higher in gastric cancer tissues than in adjacent tissues (P<0.01). CXCR7 expression was not correlated with age, gender, smoking history, Helicobacter pylori infection, tumor location or the pathological type, but showed a higher expression level in patients with a alcohol-drinking history than in those without (P<0.05). CXCR7 was expressed with variable intensities in the 5 gastric cancer cell lines without correlation with the degrees of cell differentiation; its expression was the highest in SGC-7901 cells, a moderately differentiated human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>CXCR7 is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues with variable intensities in 5 gastric cancer cell lines, suggesting its important role in gastric cancer progression.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the expression of Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) in gastric cancer cell lines and the effect of imiquimod, a TLR7 agonist, on the proliferation and apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The protein expression levels of TLR7 were detected with Western blotting in 3 human gastric cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, HGC-27 and MKN-28). The cell line expressing the highest TLR7 level was exposed to different doses of imiquimod for 12-72 h and the cell viability was assessed with MTT assay. The cell apoptosis rate after 100 µg/ml imiquimod treatment for 12 or 24 h was quantified by flow cytometry, and the ultrastructual changes of the cells were observed under electron microscope. The expression of apoptosis-related genes Bcl-2 and Bax were analyzed with real-time PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the 3 cell lines expressed TLR7, among which SGC-7901 cells showed the highest expression level. TLR7 agonist imiquimod dose- and time-dependently reduced the viability of SGC-7901 cells. Exposure to 100 µg/ml imiquimod for 24 h resulted in SGC-7901 cell apoptosis as shown by an increased ratio of early apoptotic cells and significant ultrastructural changes of the cells. Real-time PCR demonstrated that imiquimod treatment for 24 h caused a dose-dependent reduction of Bcl-2 mRNA expression and increment of Bax mRNA expression.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>TLR7 protein is expressed in all the 3 gastric cancer lines and its agonist imiquimod can inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in SGC-7901 cells.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of high glucose on the expressions of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and proinflammatory cytokine production induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in hepatic stellate cells in vitro.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Hepatic stellate cell line T6 was cultured in vitro and stimulated by high glucose. The mRNA and protein expression of TLR4 were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. After a 24-h pretreatment with high or low glucose, the cells were stimulated with LPS for 2 h, and Western blotting was used to detect the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB); at 24 h of LPS exposure, the cells were examined for MCP-1 and IL-6 mRNA and protein expression levels with RT-PCR and ELISA, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>High glucose significantly increased the mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4 (P<0.01) in a time- and dose-dependent manner. High glucose promoted NF-κB nuclear translocation and significantly enhanced the expression and secretion of both MCP-1 and IL-6 (P<0.01). Pretreatment with high glucose significantly promoted LPS-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation (P<0.01) and the mRNA expression and secretion of MCP-1 and IL-6.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>High glucose can increase TLR4 mRNA and protein expressions in hepatic stellate cells and promote LPS-induced NF-κB activation and production of proinflammatory cytokines.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the therapeutic effect of thyroid hormone in nude mice bearing human pancreatic cancer xenograft.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A BALB/c nude mouse model bearing pancreatic cancer was established with human pancreatic cancer cell line Bx-PC3. The mouse models were divided randomly into 5 groups, namely the control group treated with distilled water, high and low concentrations of thyroid hormone (T3) groups, and high and low concentration of propylthiouracil (PTU) groups. After intervention for 21 days, the changes in body weight and xenograft tumor volume and weight were measured, and the serum T3 concentration was detected by ELISA assay. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and microvessel density (MVD) were detected using immunohistochemistry.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The body weight of nude mice in T3 groups was significantly reduced after intervention, while that in PTU groups showed no obvious changes. Compared with PTU groups and control group, T3 groups showed significantly reduced tumor volume and weight (P<0.05) with also reduced PCNA expression and MVD, but these effect did not exhibit a dose dependence (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Thyroid hormone can inhibit the growth of human pancreatic cancer in nude mice by suppressing the proliferation and angiogenesis of the tumor cells, suggesting the potential value of thyroid hormone in pancreatic cancer therapy.</p>
