ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The biological tube is a basal biology structure distributed in all multicellular animals, from worms to humans, and has diverse biological functions. Formation of tubular system is crucial for embryogenesis and adult metabolism. Ascidian Ciona notochord lumen is an excellent in vivo model for tubulogenesis. Exocytosis has been known to be essential for tubular lumen formation and expansion. The roles of endocytosis in tubular lumen expansion remain largely unclear. RESULTS: In this study, we first identified a dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1 (DYRK1), the protein kinase, which was upregulated and required for ascidian notochord extracellular lumen expansion. We demonstrated that DYRK1 interacted with and phosphorylated one of the endocytic components endophilin at Ser263 that was essential for notochord lumen expansion. Moreover, through phosphoproteomic sequencing, we revealed that in addition to endophilin, the phosphorylation of other endocytic components was also regulated by DYRK1. The loss of function of DYRK1 disturbed endocytosis. Then, we demonstrated that clathrin-mediated endocytosis existed and was required for notochord lumen expansion. In the meantime, the results showed that the secretion of noto-chord cells is vigorous in the apical membrane. CONCLUSIONS: We found the co-existence of endocytosis and exocytosis activities in apical membrane during lumen formation and expansion in Ciona notochord. A novel signaling pathway is revealed that DYRK1 regulates the endocytosis by phosphorylation that is required for lumen expansion. Our finding thus indicates a dynamic balance between endocytosis and exocytosis is crucial to maintain apical membrane homeostasis that is essential for lumen growth and expansion in tubular organogenesis.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the association between the family relationship of college students in Shanghai and the psychological stress response under the COVID-19 epidemic.@*Methods@#Totally 904 college students from universities in Shanghai were investigated with questionnaire of FACESII-CV and IES-R.@*Results@#The score of family relationship intimacy was(61.32±6.29), the score of family relationship adaptability was(43.30±5.83), the score of psychological stress was(30.77±7.33), the score of internal dimension,avoidance, high alertness were(11.63±2.53)(11.69±2.64)(7.45±2.33). About 77.5%(701) and 17.3%(156) of college students showed mild and moderate stress reactions. Three dimensional scores of psychological stress response and two dimensional scores of family relationship differed significantly by age, grade, family income and parental education(P<0.01). Moreover, family relationship intimacy and adaptability scores showed negative associations with intrusive symptoms, avoidance symptoms, and high alert symptom dimension scores(P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#College students showed mild psychological stress under the COVID 19 epidemic with intrusion and avoidance symptoms as the most common. The intimacy and adaptability of family relationships are negatively associated with psychological stress response of college students under the epidemic. High-quality family relationships can reduce the psychological impact and adverse effects of the new crown epidemic on college students.

ABSTRACT

@# Objective: To investigate the characteristics and clinical significance of the immunomicroenvironment typing based on the expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and the infiltration of CD8+ T cells in the stroma in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Paraffin tissue specimens and relevant clinicopathological data of 74 NSCLC patients admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to July 2018 were collected.All patients received EGFR gene test, and none received radiotherapy, chemotherapy or targeted therapy. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of PD-L1 in tissues and the infiltration of CD8+T cells in interstitium, and the relationship between PD-L1, CD8+T cells, and the immune microenvironment typing based on both, and the pathological parameters and the survival of patients was analyzed. Results: PD-L1 expression in the primary tumor of NSCLC patients showed statistical differences in gender, pathological type, smoking history, EFGR gene mutation status ( P <0.05). The infiltration of CD8+ T lymphocytes in tumor microenvironment showed statistically significant differences in different TNM stage and lymph node metastasis ( P <0.05), PD-L1 expression was significantly correlated with EGFR mutation ( P =0.000), while CD8+T lymphocyte infiltration was not correlated with EGFR mutation ( P =0.605). The immunomicroenvironment of EGFR wild-type patients was mainly (CD8+ PD-L1+) (type I), and the mutants were mainly (CD8-PD-L1-) (type II) and (CD8+PD-L1-) (type IV). The distribution of immune microenvironmental typing in each group with different EGFR mutation, smoking history and pathological differentiation degree was significantly different ( P <0.05) and significantly correlated with EGFR mutation ( P <0.05). Follow-up showed that the patients with disease free survival, recurrence and metastasis and death were the most in type I, type II and type I, respectively. Conclusions: In this study, the distribution of tumor immunomicroenvironmental typing in NSCLC patients was mainly the highest in type I and the lowest in type Ⅲ, which was related to EGFR mutation, smoking history and pathological differentiation. Patients with EGFR mutations were mainly of type Ⅱand type Ⅳ, and were associated with low expression of PD-L1. ··

ABSTRACT

We describe here a rare case of variant of mycosis fungoides (MF): ichthyosiform MF with alopecia and atypical membranous nephropathy. The diagnosis was made based on the following findings: generalized ichthyosis-like eruption, alopecia, enlarged superficial lymph nodes, proteinuria, and hematuria, the histological features of the skin biopsy from both ichthyotic and alopecic lesions with immunohistochemical staining, and the renal biopsy examination with immunofluorescence. The histological examination of ichthyotic and alopecic lesions displayed a predominant infiltration of atypical lymphocytes in the upper dermis with the characteristics of epidermotropism and folliculotropism. Immunohistochemical studies demonstrated that most infiltrated atypical lymphocytes were CD3, CD4, and CD45RO positive, whereas negative for CD5, CD7, CD20, CD30, and CD56. A renal biopsy examination revealed atypical membranous nephropathy with deposition of immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgM, IgA, C1q, and C3. In this case atypical membranous nephropathy was involved, which is very uncommon and has never been presented in the literature to date. Although ichthyosiform MF usually features a relatively favorable course, diffuse alopecia and the renal involvement in this case might indicate aggressive disease and poor prognosis.
