Objective To investigate the changes in distribution of Oncomelania hupensis snails in forestlands in Songjiang District, Shanghai Municipality from 2009 to 2023, so as to provide insights into formulation of O. hupensis snail surveillance programs. Methods The reports on O. hupensis snail surveillance in Songjiang District, Shanghai Municipality from 2009 to 2023 were collected, and the snail surveillance data in forestlands were extracted. The trends in the proportion of areas with snails in forestlands in total areas with snails, occurrence of frames with living snails and density of living snails were evaluated using a Joinpoint regression model in Songjiang District from 2009 to 2023, and the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). Results A total of 40 sites with snails were found in forestlands in 14 administrative villages of 4 townships, Songjiang District, Shanghai Municipality from 2009 to 2023. A total of 39 065 frames were surveyed for snails in settings covering an area of 609 600 m2, and there were 6 084 frames with snails, covering 151 250 m2 snail habitats. A total of 22 210 snails were captured, with the highest density of 260.00 snails/0.1 m2, and 6 262 snails were dissected, with no Schistosoma japonicum infection identified in snails. The proportion of areas with snails in forestlands in total areas with snails appeared a tendency towards a rise in forestlands in Songjiang District, Shanghai Municipality from 2009 to 2023 (APC = AAPC = 24.9%, P > 0.05); however, there were no turning points in the trend curve, with the highest proportion seen in 2009 (53.81%), the lowest in 2011 and 2023 (both 0) and a mean proportion of 24.81%. The occurrence of frames with living snails appeared a tendency towards a rise from 2009 to 2023 (APC = AAPC = 41.5%, P > 0.05); however, there were no turning points in the trend curve, with the highest occurrence in 2009 (53.81%), the lowest in 2011 and 2013 (both 0), and the mean occurrence of 15.57%. In addition, the density of living snails appeared a tendency towards a rise from 2009 to 2023 (APC = AAPC = 55.0%, P > 0.05); however, there were no turning points in the trend curve, with the highest density in 2023 (0.96 snails/0.1 m2), the lowest in 2011 and 2013 (both 0), and a mean density of 0.57 snails/0.1 m2. Conclusions The difficulty in O. hupensis snail control and risk of imported snails appeared a tendency towards a rise in forestlands in Songjiang District, Shanghai Municipality over years from 2009 to 2023. Supervision and assessment prior to seedling transplantation and intensified surveillance post-transplantation are recommended to reduce the risk of O. hupensis snail importation and spread.

ObjectiveTo analyze the monitoring results and trends of Oncomelania in Songjiang District of Shanghai from 2007 to 2023, and to provide reference for future monitoring work. MethodsThe data of snail monitoring in Songjiang District from 2007 to 2023 were collected, including the location of snail spots, the number of survey frames, the area with snails, the number of frames with snails, the total number of snails, etc. The density of living snails and the occurrence rate of living snail frames were calculated. ResultsFrom 2007 to 2023, a total of 158 snail spots were found in 22 administrative villages in 4 towns in Songjiang District, including 131 emerging snail habitats (82.91%) and 27 reemerging snail habitats (17.09%). The total snail area was 175 980 m2, the number of snail frames was 10 061, and 33 302 snails were captured. The highest density was 260/0.11 m2, and 15 662 snails were dissected. No positive snails were found. The average density of living snails was 0.60/0.11 m2 and the average occurrence rate of living snail frames was 17.99%. The snail areas in different areas were Yexie Town 126 000 m2 (71.60%), Maogang Town 26 470 m2 (15.04%), Xinbang Town 17 040 m2 (9.68%), and Shihudang Town 6 470 m2 (3.68%). The average density of living snails in different areas was 0.89/0.11 m2 in Yexie Town, 0.65/0.11 m2 in Maogang Town, 0.26/0.11 m2 in Shihudang Town and 0.24/0.11 m2 in Xinbang Town. The snail areas of different snail habitats were as follows: woodland 151 250 m2(85.95%), river 13 810 m2(7.85%), ditch 6 910 m2(3.93%), farmland 4 010 m2(2.28%). The average density of living snails in different snail habitats: ditch 1.01/0.11 m2, beach 0.86/0.11 m2, woodland 0.57/0.11 m2, river 0.40/0.11 m2. The occurrence rate of living snail frames in different regions and different snail environment types showed a downward trend and the difference was statistically significant. ConclusionAlthough the snail monitoring indicators such as snail area, average living snail density and average living snail frame occurrence rate in Songjiang District are still at its historically low level, the average living snail density and average living snail frame occurrence rate are still high compared with other regions or the national average. We should focus on the upper reaches and tributaries of the Huangpu River, especially the key areas of seedling transplantation, and strengthen monitoring and supervision to reduce the risk of snail input.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common liver disease in the world and is an important risk factor for the progression to hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the pathogenesis of NAFLD remains unclear, and there is still a lack of specific treatment measures. Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBP) are an important nuclear transcription factor, which mainly maintains the balance of lipid metabolism inside the body by activating the genes associated with the synthesis and uptake of cholesterol, fatty acids, and triglycerides, and therefore, SREBP are a target for the treatment of metabolic diseases. This article reviews the latest advances in SREBP in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and the latest evidence of SREBP-targeted therapy for NAFLD. It is worth noting that recent studies have shown that SREBP inhibition can cause liver injury together with autophagy damage. Therefore, excessive inhibition of lipogenesis may exert a counterproductive effect on the treatment of NAFLD. In conclusion, SREBP is a promising therapeutic target for NAFLD; the molecular mechanism of SREBP in lipid metabolism is regulated by many factors, and these factors are being deeply explored and analyzed, which has an important clinical significance for the treatment of NAFLD.

CUDC-101, an effective and multi-target inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), histone deacetylase (HDAC), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), has been reported to inhibit many kinds of cancers, such as acute promyelocytic leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, no studies have yet investigated whether CUDC-101 is effective against myeloma. Herein, we proved that CUDC-101 effectively inhibits the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines and induces cell apoptosis in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Moreover, CUDC-101 markedly blocked the signaling pathway of EGFR/phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) and HDAC, and regulated the cell cycle G2/M arrest. Moreover, we revealed through in vivo experiment that CUDC-101 is a potent anti-myeloma drug. Bortezomib is one of the important drugs in MM treatment, and we investigated whether CUDC-101 has a synergistic or additive effect with bortezomib. The results showed that this drug combination had a synergistic anti-myeloma effect by inducing G2/M phase blockade. Collectively, our findings revealed that CUDC-101 could act on its own or in conjunction with bortezomib, which provides insights into exploring new strategies for MM treatment.

Objective:To establish and verify the prediction model of benign or malignant of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs≤20 mm) based on artificial intelligence.Methods:Totally 338 SPNs (≤20 mm) from 279 patients, confirmed by operation and pathology, were selected in Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University from November 2018 to May 2020. Clinical data (age, gender, smoking history, individual and family history of malignancy), image features (maximum diameter, minimum diameter, solid proportion, volume, lobulation sign, burr sign, vacuole sign, cavity sign, pleural indentation sign, and radiomic features (maximum CT value, minimum CT value, average CT value, median CT value, CT value standard deviation, skewness, peak, energy, entropy) were analyzed retrospectively. All the data of patients were randomly divided into training set (271 SPNs) and test set (67 SPNs). In the training set, the clinical, image features and radiomic features were first selected by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, then the independent risk factors of SPN (≤20 mm) were screened out by multi-variate logistic regression analysis, and the nomogram prediction models were constructed. Finally, the data of test set were used to verify the prediction model by the ROC curve and calibration curve (CC).Results:In the training set of 271 SPNs, 81 SPNs were benign and 190 malignant. After analysis of LASSO regression and multi-factor logistics regression, the independent predictors of benign or malignant SPN were age, gender, largest diameter, vacuole sign and solid proportion. The prediction model was P=e x/(1+e x), x=-2.583+0.027×age+1.519×gender+0.127×maximum diameter-2.132×solid proportion+1.720×vacuole sign. The results of the model showed that the area under curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.850, and the sensitivity was 73.7%, specificity was 82.7% and accuracy was 82.3%. In the test set of 67 SPNs, 22 SPNs were benign and 45 malignant. The results showed that the AUC of ROC was 0.882, and the sensitivity was 82.2%, specificity was 81.8% and accuracy was 85.1%. The calibration nomogram of prediction model showed that CC from training set or test set well coincided with its individual ideal curve ( Ptraining=0.688, Ptest=0.618). Conclusion:Prediction model of benign or malignant SPN ≤20 mm is established based on AI; it can obtain the prediction probability and has good diagnostic efficiency.

Background and purpose:Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) plays a vital role in the process of anti-tumor immunology. The aim of this study was to investigate whether changes in concentration of IL-2 (50, 200 and 1 000 U/mL) would affect the sub-population and cytotoxic function of cells cultivated by peptide-specific CTL induction systemin vitro and also observe whether using the concentration of IL-2 at a range of 50-1 000 U/mL isbeneifcial to regulatory cells (Tregs) enrichment.Methods:Peripheral blood from 10 healthy donors and 10 cancer patients that were HLA-A2 positive, were collected in the study. HLA-A2 restricted CTL epitope P321 (ILIGETIKI) derived from COX-2 pulsed with different concentrations of IL-2 were used to induce peptides-speciifc CTLin vitro. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the proliferative capability, the proportion of different T-cell subsets, and secretion of perforin, granzyme B and IFN-γ. IFN-γ secretion was assessed by ELISpot assay.Results:High concentration of IL-2 increased the proliferative activity. The percentage of CD4+ T cells of cancer patient group was signiifcantly higher than that of healthy donor group, while the percentage of CD8+ T cells of cancer patient group was signiifcantly lower than that of healthy donor group. And there was no signiifcant difference in the percentages of CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells and Tregs among groups with different IL-2 concentrations. No difference was seen in cytokine (perforin, granzyme B, IFN-γ) secretion capacity of CD8+ T cells. ELISpot study revealed that high-dose IL-2 resulted in the increasing of IFN-γ secretion.Conclusion:The sub-population and the function of cells cultured by peptide-speciifc CTL induction systemin vitro are not affected by different concentrations of IL-2. Furthermore, high concentrations of IL-2 (50-1 000 U/mL) do not provide the enrichment for Tregs. Higher concentration of IL-2 is likely to cause high secretion of IFN-γ in ELISpot assay. In order to exclude the distraction of NK cells or NKT cells, the concentration of 50 U/mL is better choice.
