RESUMEN
Plant intracellular nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeat-containing receptors (NLRs) activate a robust immune response upon detection of pathogen effectors. How NLRs induce downstream immune defense genes remains poorly understood. The Mediator complex plays a central role in transducing signals from gene-specific transcription factors to the transcription machinery for gene transcription/activation. In this study, we demonstrate that MED10b and MED7 of the Mediator complex mediate jasmonate-dependent transcription repression, and coiled-coil NLRs (CNLs) in Solanaceae modulate MED10b/MED7 to activate immunity. Using the tomato CNL Sw-5b, which confers resistance to tospovirus, as a model, we found that the CC domain of Sw-5b directly interacts with MED10b. Knockout/down of MED10b and other subunits including MED7 of the middle module of Mediator activates plant defense against tospovirus. MED10b was found to directly interact with MED7, and MED7 directly interacts with JAZ proteins, which function as transcriptional repressors of jasmonic acid (JA) signaling. MED10b-MED7-JAZ together can strongly repress the expression of JA-responsive genes. The activated Sw-5b CC interferes with the interaction between MED10b and MED7, leading to the activation of JA-dependent defense signaling against tospovirus. Furthermore, we found that CC domains of various other CNLs including helper NLR NRCs from Solanaceae modulate MED10b/MED7 to activate defense against different pathogens. Together, our findings reveal that MED10b/MED7 serve as a previously unknown repressor of jasmonate-dependent transcription repression and are modulated by diverse CNLs in Solanaceae to activate the JA-specific defense pathways.

PURPOSE: Clarify the composition of the Posterior wall of the Inguinal Canal(PWIC), the location and composition of the Transverse Fascia(TF), and the tissue origin of the Cremaster(C) by observing the anatomy of the inguinal region of the cadaver. METHODS: 30 cadavers were dissected to observe the alignment of the muscles and fascia of the inguinal canal and the anterior peritoneal space. the anatomical levels of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and the alignment of the Spermatic Cord(SC) were observed. RESULTS: (1) The posterior wall of the inguinal canal was white, bright, and tough tendon membrane-like tissue; (2) the transverse fascia was a thin fascial tissue with only one layer of membranous structure located in the abdominal wall under the abdominal wall on the side of the blood vessels of the peritoneal cavity; (3) the internal oblique muscle and its tendon membrane, and the transversus abdominis muscle and its tendon membrane extended on the surface of the spermatic cord, and fused and continued to the cremaster on the surface of the spermatic cord. CONCLUSIONS: 1. PWIC is mainly composed of Internal oblique muscle of abdomen (IOMA), Aponeurosis of internal oblique muscle of abdomen (AIOMA), Transverse abdominal muscle (TAM), and Transverse abdominal aponeurosis(TAA) as the following four types: (1) TAM and AIOMA fused to form a tendinous layer; (2) IOMA and TAM form the posterior wall of the muscle in the PWIC; (3) IOMA and AIOMA continue in the PWIC; 4) TAM and TAA continue in the PWIC. 2.TF is a thin fascial tissue with only one layer of membrane structure, TF is not involved in the composition of PWIC, so this fascia has nothing to do with resisting the occurrence of inguinal hernia. 3. The spermatic cord that travels in the inguinal canal is fixed to the lower wall of the inguinal canal by the tendon membrane of the cremaster, which is organized from the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscles and their tendon membranes, The inguinal canal is a musculotendinous canal.

BACKGROUND: It is difficult to definitively determine the degree of ischemia in the bowel in which an incarcerated groin hernia is embedded. Failure to diagnose and intervene promptly and accurately increases the rate of bowel resection and patient mortality. The aim of this study is to investigate the risk factors for incarcerated inguinal hernia complicating bowel necrosis with resection and to establish a predictive model as a reference for clinical work. METHODS: Patients with incarcerated groin hernia who were admitted to our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into bowel resection and non-bowel resection groups based on whether bowel resection was performed in the surgical record and postoperative pathological results. Risk factors for the development of bowel resection in incarcerated groin hernia were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression, respectively. The screened independent risk factors were used to establish a prediction model, and finally, the predictive ability and accuracy of the model were validated and the clinical benefit was analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 345 patients with incarcerated groin hernia were included, of whom 58 underwent bowel resection for bowel necrosis and 287 did not. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis identified bowel obstruction (OR, 7.285 [95% CI, 2.254-23.542], P = 0.001), peritonitis (OR, 16.786 [95% CI, 5.436-51.838], P = 0.000), duration of incarcerated groin hernia (OR, 1.009 [95% CI, 1. 001-1.018], P = 0.034), heart rate (OR, 1.109 [95% CI, 1.021-1.205], P = 0.014), and preoperative total protein (OR, 0.900 [95% CI, 0.836-0.969], P = 0.005) were independent risk factors for bowel resection in incarcerated groin hernia. The predictive value of the established prediction model was basically in agreement with the measured value with a consistency index of 0.938 (0.901-0.974) and had a good clinical benefit. CONCLUSION: Clinical screening and management of independent risk factors for bowel resection in patients with incarcerated groin hernia should be strengthened. The predictive model developed in this study has high diagnostic efficacy for bowel resection associated with incarcerated inguinal hernia, with the aim of reducing the incidence of bowel resection and unplanned secondary surgery.

BACKGROUND: Controversies regarding the anatomical structure of Denonvilliers' fascia and its relationship with surrounding fasciae have sparked a heated discussion, especially concerning whether Denonvilliers' fascia is multilayered. This study aimed to expound on the anatomical structure of Denonvilliers' fascia and its correlation with the peritoneum from the sagittal view and clarify the complex fascial relationship. METHODS: Our study was performed on 20 adult male pelvic specimens fixed in formalin, including 2 entire pelvic specimens and 18 semipelvic specimens. The local adjacent organs and fasciae were dissected, and Denonvilliers' fascia was observed and removed for histological examination. RESULTS: Denonvilliers' fascia was typically single-layered and tough. On the sagittal plane, the peritoneum constituting the peritoneal reflection and Denonvilliers' fascia formed a "Y" shape. Denonvilliers' fascia originated from the peritoneal reflection, extended along the ventral side of the seminal vesicles and prostate, continuing caudally; its bilateral sides closely connected to the urogenital fascia (UGF) of the pelvic wall. In addition, histology preliminarily indicated that the basal cell layers of the peritoneum and Denonvilliers' fascia were continuous and formed a "Y" shape. Furthermore, the basal cells of the two peritonea extended to Denonvilliers' fascia, creating a fused double-layered structure. Some tiny blood vessels or a network of such vessels extended from the peritoneum to Denonvilliers' fascia. CONCLUSION: Denonvilliers' fascia, the extension of the peritoneum in the pelvic floor, appears as a single-layered "Y"-shape on the sagittal plane. Our study provides new support for the peritoneal fusion theory. Understanding the anatomical characteristics of Denonvilliers' fascia and its relationship with the UGF is of guiding significance for inexperienced colorectal surgeons to conduct rectal cancer surgery.

BACKGROUND: The architecture of retrorectal fasciae is complex, as determined by different anatomical concepts. The aim of this study was to examine the anatomical characteristics of the inferomedial extension of the urogenital fascia (UGF) involving the pelvis to explore its relationship with the adjacent fasciae. Furthermore, we have expounded on the clinical application of UGF. METHOD: For our study, we examined 20 adult male pelvic specimens fixed in formalin, including 2 entire pelvic specimens and 18 semipelvic specimens. Our department has performed 466 laparoscopic rectal cancer procedures since January 2020. We reviewed the surgical videos involving UGF preservation and analyzed the anatomy of the UGF. RESULTS: The bilateral hypogastric nerves ran between the visceral and parietal layers of the UGF. The visceral fascia migrated ventrally at the fourth sacral vertebra, which formed the rectosacral fascia together with the fascia propria of the rectum; the parietal layer continually extended to the pelvic diaphragm, terminating at the levator ani muscle. At the third to fourth sacral vertebra level, the two layers constituted the lateral ligaments. CONCLUSION: The double layers of the UGF are vital structures for comprehending the posterior fascia relationship of the rectum. The upper segment between the fascia propria of the rectum and the visceral layer has no evident nerves or blood vessels and is regarded as the " holy plane" for the operation.

PURPOSE: Previous anatomical studies of the urogenital fascia (UGF) have focused on males, and there is a lack of relevant anatomical studies on the distribution of the extraperitoneal UGF in females. METHODS: In this investigation, guided by the embryonic development of the female urogenital system, the ventral pelvic fascia structure of 10 female cadavers was dissected, and the distribution and morphology of female extraperitoneal UGF were observed, recorded in text, photographs and video, and 3D modeling was performed. RESULTS: We find that in the female extraperitoneal space there is a migratory fascial structure, the UGF, which surrounds the urogenital system and extends from the perinephric region to the pelvis along with the development of the urogenital organs. The two layers of the UGF are composed of loose connective tissue rich in fat that surrounds the urogenital organs, their accessory vascular structures, and the nerves of the abdominopelvic cavity. In the pelvis, it participates in the formation of the ligamentous structures around the rectum and uterus. Finally, it surrounds the bladder and gradually moves into the loose connective tissue of the medial umbilical fold. CONCLUSIONS: Sorting out the distribution characteristics of UGF has some reference value for studying the metastasis of gynecological tumors, the biomechanical structure of the female pelvis, and the surgical methods of gynecology, colorectal surgery, and hernia surgery.

PURPOSE: Many researchers have different views on the origin and anatomy of the preperitoneal fascia. The purpose of this study is to review studies on the anatomy related to the preperitoneal fascia and to investigate the origin, structure, and clinical significance of the preperitoneal fascia in conjunction with previous anatomical findings of the genitourinary fascia, using the embryogenesis of the genitourinary system as a guide. METHODS: Publications on the preperitoneal and genitourinary fascia are reviewed, with emphasis on the anatomy of the preperitoneal fascia and its relationship to the embryonic development of the genitourinary organs. We also describe previous anatomical studies of the genitourinary fascia in the inguinal region through the fixation of formalin-fixed cadavers. RESULTS: Published literature on the origin, structure, and distribution of the preperitoneal fascia is sometimes inconsistent. However, studies on the urogenital fascia provide more than sufficient evidence that the formation of the preperitoneal fascia is closely related to the embryonic development of the urogenital fascia and its tegument. Combined with previous anatomical studies of the genitourinary fascia in the inguinal region of formalin-fixed cadavers showed that there is a complete fascial system. This fascial system moves from the retroperitoneum to the anterior peritoneum as the preperitoneal fascia. CONCLUSIONS: We can assume that the preperitoneal fascia (PPF) is continuous with the retroperitoneal renal fascia, ureter and its accessory vessels, lymphatic vessels, peritoneum of the bladder, internal spermatic fascia, and other peritoneal and pelvic urogenital organ surfaces, which means that the urogenital fascia (UGF) is a complete fascial system, which migrates into PPF in the preperitoneal space and the internal spermatic fascia in the inguinal canal.

PURPOSE: To investigate the urogenital fascia (UGF) anatomy in the inguinal region, to provide anatomical guidance for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR). METHODS: The anatomy was performed on 10 formalin-fixed cadavers. The peritoneum and its deeper fascial tissues were carefully dissected. RESULTS: The UGF's bilateral superficial layer extended and ended in front of the abdominal aorta. At the posterior axillary line, the superficial layer medially reversed, with extension represented the UGF's deep layer. The UGF's bilateral deep layer medially extended beside the vertebral body and then continued with the transversalis fascia. The ureters, genital vessels, and superior hypogastric plexus moved between both layers. The vas deferens and spermatic vessels, ensheathed by both layers, moved through the deep inguinal ring. From the deep inguinal ring to the midline, the superficial layer extended to the urinary bladder's posterior wall, whereas the deep layer extended to its anterior wall. Both layers ensheathed the urinary bladder and extended along the medial umbilical ligament to the umbilicus and in the sacral promontory, extended along the sacrum, forming the presacral fascia. The superficial layer formed the rectosacral fascia at S4 sacral vertebra, and the deep layer extended to the pelvic diaphragm, terminating at the levator ani muscle. CONCLUSION: The UGF ensheaths the kidneys, ureters, vas deferens, genital vessels, superior hypogastric plexus, seminal vesicles, prostate, and urinary bladder. This knowledge of the UGF's anatomy in the inguinal region will help find correct LIHR targets and reduce bleeding and other complications.

DNA-binding protein A (dbpA) is reported to be upregulated in many cancers and associated with tumor progress. The present study aimed to investigate the role of dbpA in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-resistant and oxaliplatin (L-OHP)-resistant colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. We found that 5-FU and L-OPH treatment promoted the expression of dbpA. Enhanced dbpA promoted the drug resistance of SW620 cells to 5-FU and L-OHP. DbpA knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell apoptosis, and cell cycle arrested in SW620/5-FU and SW620/L-OHP cells. Besides, dbpA short hairpin RNA (shRNA) enhanced the cytotoxicity of 5-FU and L-OHP to SW620/5-FU and SW620/L-OHP cells. Meanwhile, dbpA shRNA inhibited the activation of the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway that induced by 5-FU stimulation in SW620/5-FU cells. Activation of the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway or overexpression of checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) abrogated the promoting effect of dbpA downregulation on 5-FU sensitivity of CRC cells. Importantly, downregulation of dbpA suppressed tumor growth and promoted CRC cells sensitivity to 5-FU in vivo. Our study indicated that the knockdown of dbpA enhanced the sensitivity of CRC cells to 5-FU via Wnt/ß-catenin/Chk1 pathway, and DbpA may be a potential therapeutic target to sensitize drug resistance CRC to 5-FU and L-OHP.

BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a global medical problem and macrophages' activation is closely related to the pathogenesis of NASH. Curcumin is a polyphenol from turmeric with significant anti-inflammatory activity. OBJECTIVE: The objective of present study was to observe the effect of curcumin on macrophages' activation and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in NASH. METHODS: Hematoxylin and eosin and TUNEL staining were used to observe the hepatic function. RT-PCR was conducted to evaluate the hepatic mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß). Flow cytometry was adopted to detect the M1 polarization of macrophages. The RAW264.7 macrophage was pretreated with different doses of curcumin, and then lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were given to activate the M1 macrophage. The activation ratio of M1 macrophage was observed by flow cytometry, and IL-1ß and TNF-α expression was detected by RT-PCR and ELISA. RESULTS: After treatment with curcumin, the activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), the mRNA expression of TNF-α and IL-1ß, and M1 polarization of macrophages were significantly decreased. Hematoxylin and eosin and TUNEL staining showed that inflammation and apoptosis in the liver were improved. What is more, curcumin can effectively inhibit M1 macrophage activation induced by lipopolysaccharide and IFN-γ and reduce the secretion of IL-1ß and TNF-α. CONCLUSION: Curcumin can effectively improve NASH and reduce hepatic cell necrosis by inhibiting the M1 polarization of macrophages and the secretion of inflammatory factors.

The tomato Sw-5b gene confers resistance to tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and encodes a nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) protein with an N-terminal Solanaceae-specific domain (SD). Although our understanding of how Sw-5b recognizes the viral NSm elicitor has increased significantly, the process by which Sw-5b activates downstream defense signaling remains to be elucidated. In this study, we used a tobacco rattle virus (TRV)-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system to investigate the roles of the SGT1/RAR1, EDS1/NDR1, NPR1, and NRC/ADR1/NRG1 genes in the Sw-5b-mediated signaling pathway. We found that chaperone SGT1 was required for Sw-5b function, but co-chaperone RAR1 was not. Sw-5b-mediated immune signaling was independent of both EDS1 and NDR1. Silencing NPR1, which is a central component in SA signaling, did not result in TSWV systemic infection in Sw-5b-transgenic N. benthamiana plants. Helper NLR NRCs (NLRs required for cell death) were required for Sw-5b-mediated systemic resistance to TSWV infection. Suppression of NRC2/3/4 compromised the Sw-5b resistance. However, the helper NLRs ADR1 and NRG1 may not participate in the Sw-5b signaling pathway. Silencing ADR1, NRG1, or both genes did not affect Sw-5b-mediated resistance to TSWV. Our findings provide new insight into the requirement for conserved key components in Sw-5b-mediated signaling pathways.

BACKGROUND: There is an urgent need for the identification of new, clinically useful biomarkers of CRC to enhance diagnostic and prognostic capabilities. METHODS: We performed proteomic profiling on serum samples from paired pre- and post-operative CRC patients, colorectal polyps patients and healthy controls using an approach combining magnetic bead-based weak cation exchange and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. We next performed liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry to identify the proteins and selected potential biomarker based on bioinformatics analysis of the TCGA and GEO dataset. We examined SETD7 expression in serum and tissue samples by ELISA and immunohistochemistry respectively and explored the biological function of SETD7 in vitro. FINDINGS: 85 differentially expressed peptides were identified. Five peptides showing the most significant changes in abundance across paired pre- and post-operation CRC patients, colorectal polyps patients and healthy controls were identified as peptide regions of FGA, MUC5AC and SETD7. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that the up-regulation of SETD7 in CRC is relatively specific. Validation studies showed that SETD7 expression increased from healthy controls to those with colorectal polyps and finally CRC patients, and decreased after surgery. The sensitivity and specificity of SETD7 were 92.17% and 81.08%, with a high diagnostic value (AUCâ¯=â¯0.9477). In addition, SETD7 expression was significantly correlated with tumor stage and microsatellite instability. Knockdown of SETD7 inhibited cancer cell proliferation, induced G1/S cell cycle arrest and increased apoptosis. INTERPRETATION: Our data indicate that SETD7 could serve as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for CRC.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the common hemorrhage sites during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery in order to take reasonable prevention and management. METHODS: Clinical data of 355 rectal cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic total mesorectal excision in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 2012 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Common bleeding sites, blood loss, and hemostasis time were recorded. According to the date of operation, patients were divided into 2012 group (91 cases), 2013 group (122 cases) and 2014 group(142 cases). Hemorrhage rates were compared among three groups. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed in the baseline data among the three groups(all P>0.05). The location in the order of the hemorrhage rate from high to low was seminal vesicle tail (63.0%, 131/208), inferior mesenteric vessels (27.3%, 97/355), Toldt's space (24.2%, 86/355), lateral rectal ligaments (12.1%, 43/355) and post-rectal spatial (8.2%, 29/355). According to the blood loss, post-rectal spatial[(14.1±7.1) ml], inferior mesenteric vessels [(12.7±6.1) ml] and seminal vesicle tail [(12.4±6.5) ml] were ranked in top three. The hemostasis time of seminal vesicle tail [(11.5±6.6) minutes] and post rectal spatial [(10.3±7.8) minutes] was longer than the others. Compared with 2012 group, shorter operative time [(205±50) minutes vs. (235±55) minutes, t=4.296, P=0.001], less blood loss [(35±19) ml vs. (81±24) ml, t=16.243, P=0.001] and lower hemorrhage rate [Toldt's space: 7.7%(11/142) vs. 39.6%(36/91), inferior mesenteric vessels: 9.2%(13/142) vs. 44.0%(40/91), post-rectal spatial: 0.7%(1/142) vs. 15.4%(14/91), lateral rectal ligaments: 2.1%(3/142) vs. 29.7%(27/91) and seminal vesicle tail: 50.6%(41/81) vs. 79.6%(43/54)] were found in 2014 group. The decline of hemorrhage rate in seminal vesicle tail was the slowest (χ2=11.792, P=0.003). CONCLUSIONS: The common hemorrhage sites during the laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery are inferior mesenteric vessels, Toldt's space, lateral rectal ligaments, post rectal spatial and seminal vesicle tail. Appropriate preventive measures can ameliorate the intraoperative bleeding significantly, however, more attention should be paid to the seminal vesicle tail during operation because of its higher hemorrhage rate, more blood loss and difficult hemostasis.

In order to assess the value of liver volumetry in cirrhosis and acute liver failure (ALF) patients, we explored the correlation between hepatic volume and severity of the hepatic diseases. The clinical data of 48 cirrhosis patients with 60 normal controls and 39 ALF patients were collected. Computed tomography-derived liver volume (CTLV) and body surface area (BSA) of normal controls were calculated to get a regression formula for standard liver volume (SLV) and BSA. Then CTLV and SLV of all patients were calculated and grouped by Child-Turcotte-Pugh classification for cirrhosis patients and assigned according to prognosis of ALF patients for further comparison. It turned out that the mean liver volume of the control group was 1,058 ± 337 cm(3). SLV was correlated with BSA according to the regression formula. The hepatic volume of cirrhosis patients in Child A, B level was not reduced, but in Child C level it was significantly reduced with the lowest liver volume index (CTLV/SLV). Likewise, in the death group of ALF patients, the volume index was significantly lower than that of the survival group. Based on volumetric study, we proposed an ROC (receiver operating characteristic) analysis to predict the prognosis of ALF patients that CTLV/SLV < 83.9% indicates a poor prognosis. In conclusion, the CTLV/SLV ratio, which reflects liver volume variations, correlates well with the liver function and progression of cirrhosis and ALF. It is also a very useful marker for predicting the prognosis of ALF.
