OBJECTIVE: To evaluate effects of bone marrow sparing (BMS) radiotherapy on decreasing the incidence of acute hematologic toxicity (HT) for locoregionally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) patients treated by pelvic irradiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: LACC patients were recruited prospectively from May 2021 to May 2022 at a single center and were evenly randomized into the BMS group and the control group. All patients received pelvic irradiation with concurrent cisplatin (40 mg/m2 weekly), followed by brachytherapy and BM V40 < 25% in the BMS group was additionally prescribed. Acute HT was assessed weekly. Binary logistic regression model and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used for predictive value analysis. The trial was registered with Chinese clinical trial registry (ChiCTR2200066485). RESULTS: A total of 242 patients were included in the analysis. Baseline demographic, disease and treatment characteristics were balanced between the two groups. In the intention-to-treat population, BMS was associated with a lower incidence of grade ≥ 2 and grade ≥ 3 acute HT, leukopenia and neutropenia s(72.70% v 90.90%, P < 0.001*; 16.50% vs. 65.30%, P < 0.001*; 66.10% vs. 85.10%, P = 0.001*; 13.20% vs. 54.50%, P < 0.001*; 37.20% vs. 66.10%, P < 0.001*; 10.70% vs. 43.80%, P < 0.001*). BMS also resulted in decreased dose delivered to the organs at risk (OARs) including rectum, bladder and left and right femoral head. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that BM V40 was an independent risk factor for grade ≥ 3 acute HT (odds ratio [OR] = 2.734, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.959-3.815, P < 0.001*). Cutoff value was 25.036% and area under the curve (AUC) was 0.786. The nomogram was constructed, which was rigorously evaluated and internally cross-validated, showing good predictive performance. CONCLUSIONS: Receiving BMS pelvic irradiation could reduce the incidence of acute HT in LACC patients, and BM V40 < 25% may be a significant factor in reducing the risks of acute HT.

Salmonella is one of the most prevalent pathogens causing foodborne diseases. In this study, a novel electrochemical immunosensor was designed for the rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) in milk. Platinum nanoparticles and Co/Zn-metal-organic framework @carboxylic multiwalled carbon nanotubes in the immunosensor acted synergistically to enhance the sensing sensitivity and stability. The materials and sensors were characterised using X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential pulse voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, and other techniques. The optimised immunosensor showed a linear response for S. typhimurium concentrations in the range from 1.3 × 102 to 1.3 × 108 CFU mL-1, with a detection limit of 9.4 × 101 CFU mL-1. The assay also demonstrates good specificity, reproducibility, stability, and practical application potential, and the method can be extended to other foodborne pathogens.

In recent years, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have gained tremendous attention due to their widespread application. Previous research indicated that carbon nanomaterials can affect the toxicity of some pollutants. In this study, we investigated the influence of multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs) on the toxicity of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnONPs) in the intestine of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). After four-week exposure, histopathological observation and TUNEL assay showed concentration ratio-dependent intestinal lesions and apoptosis, with the most severe in the HSC-ZnONPs group (50 mg L-1 ZnONPs and 2.5 mg L-1 MWCNTs), less severe in the ZnONPs group (50 mg L-1 ZnONPs) and the least in the LSC-ZnONPs group (50 mg L-1 ZnONPs and 0.25 mg L-1 MWCNTs). Furthermore, ICP-OES indicated that intercellular zinc accumulation was significantly decreased by the presence of the MWCNTs, which suggested the varied contribution of ZnONPs to intestine injury in different groups. Moreover, 16 s rDNA sequencing revealed that ZnONPs alone and in combination with MWCNTs significantly altered the microbial community diversity and composition of the gut microbiota compared with controls. In addition, the predominant phylum, class, order, family, and genus were significantly different among these groups. In conclusion, the influence of MWCNTs on the toxicity of ZnONPs was related to the concentration and concentration ratio of the mixture.

Thermal fluctuations in two-dimensional (2D) isotropy systems at non-zero finite temperatures can destroy the long-range (LR) magnetic order due to the mechanisms addressed in the Mermin-Wanger theory. However, the magnetic anisotropy related to spin-orbit coupling (SOC) may stabilize magnetic order in 2D systems. Very recently, 2D FexGeTe2 (3 ≤ x ≤ 7) with a high Curie temperature (TC) has not only undergone significant developments in terms of synthetic methods and the control of ferromagnetism (FM), but is also being actively explored for applications in various devices. In this review, we introduce six experimental methods, ten ferromagnetic modulation strategies, and four spintronic devices for 2D FexGeTe2 materials. In summary, we outline the challenges and potential research directions in this field.
RESUMEN
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths worldwide. Currently, chemotherapy is the primary way for colorectal cancer, but with severe side effects. Therefore, it is urgent to find safer and more effective adjuvant treatment methods. At present, natural active substances are promising alternatives, as numerous studies have demonstrated possible synergistic anticancer effects in plant-active polyphenols. In the present study, the combined effect of procyanidins (PC) (from peanut skin) and resveratrol (RES) (from peanut buds) on the synergistic anticancer potential was investigated. CACO-2 and HCT-8 cells were served as colorectal cancer models, and HEPG-2 and HUH-7 cells were served as liver cancer models to observe the effects of PC and RES alone or in combination on the growth and proliferation of these four types of cancer cells. The results revealed that both PC and RES could inhibit the cells' proliferation in a manner with concentration-dependent, but they exerted synergistic anticancer effects only on CACO-2 cells. PC and RES could synergistically inhibit CACO-2 cell clone formation, inducing apoptosis of CACO-2 cells and blocking their cell cycle in G0/G1 phase. Additionally, as observed by the results of Western blot assay, the combined effect of PC and RES also inhibited the phosphorylation of Thr308, Ser473, and ERK and promoted the phosphorylation of IKBα and NF-κB in CACO-2 cells. These findings collectively indicate that PC combined with RES might exert synergistic anticancer effects by regulating AKT, ERK, and NF-κB signaling pathways.
RESUMEN
Since the discovery of the low-temperature, long-range ferromagnetic order in monolayers Cr2Ge2Te6 and CrI3, many efforts have been made to achieve a room temperature (RT) ferromagnet. The outstanding deformation ability of two-dimensional (2D) materials provides an exciting way to mediate their intrinsic ferromagnetism (FM) with strain engineering. Here, we summarize the recent progress of strain engineering of intrinsic FM in 2D van der Waals materials. First, we introduce how to explain the strain-mediated intrinsic FM on Cr-based and Fe-based 2D van der Waals materials through ab initio Density functional theory (DFT), and how to calculate magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) and Curie temperature (TC) from the interlayer exchange coupling J. Subsequently, we focus on numerous attempts to apply strain to 2D materials in experiments, including wrinkle-induced strain, flexible substrate bending or stretching, lattice mismatch, electrostatic force and field-cooling. Last, we emphasize that this field is still in early stages, and there are many challenges that need to be overcome. More importantly, strengthening the guideline of strain-mediated FM in 2D van der Waals materials will promote the development of spintronics and straintronics.
RESUMEN
Solitary waves are unique in nonlinear systems, but their formation and propagation in the nonlinear fluid-structure interactions have yet to be further explored. As a typical nonlinear system, the buckling of solid thin films is fundamentally related to the film-substrate interface that is further vulnerable to environments, especially when fluids exist. In this work, we report an anomalous, solitary-wave-like blister (SWLB) mode of MoS2 thin films in a humid environment. Unlike the most common telephone-cord and web buckling deformation, the SWLB propagates forward like solitary waves that usually appear in fluids and exhibits three-dimensional expansions of the profiles during propagation. In situ mechanical, optical, and topology measurements verify the existence of an interfacial water nanolayer, which facilitates a delamination of films at the front side of the SWLB and a readhesion at the tail side owing to the water nanolayer-induced fluid-structure interaction. Furthermore, the expansion morphologies and process of the SWLB are predicted by our theoretical model based on the energy change of buckle propagation. Our work not only demonstrates the emerging SWLB mode in a solid material but also sheds light on the significance of interfacial water nanolayers to structural deformation and functional applications of thin films.
RESUMEN
Polymer-assisted deposition (PAD) has been widely used in the preparation of high-quality oxides and sulfides for basic research and applications. Specifically, diverse PAD-prepared magnetic material thin films such as ZnO, Ga2O3, SrRuO3, LaCoO3, LaMnO3, Y3Fe5O12, MoS2, MoSe2, and ReS2 thin films have been grown, in which thickness-dependent, strain-modulated, doping-mediated, and/or morphology-dependent room-temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM) have been explored. Inspired by the discovery of intrinsic low-temperature FM in two-dimensional (2D) systems prepared using mechanical exfoliation, the search for more convenient methods to prepare 2D ferromagnetic materials with high-temperature FM has seen explosive growth, but with little success. Fortunately, the very recent synthesis of 2D NiO by PAD has shed light on this challenge. Based on these abovementioned developments, the difficulties of PAD when preparing a-few-nanometer single-crystalline materials and the opportunities in PAD for novel materials such as chiral magnetic soliton material Cr1/3NbS2 are discussed.

Post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) is highly recommended for patients with breast cancer with one to three positive nodes; however, there remains some controversy regarding its use. The present retrospective study aimed to explore which patients may be able to avoid PMRT and its associated side effects. A total of 728 patients with T1-2N1 breast cancer who were treated with or without PMRT were included in the present study. The results suggested that PMRT significantly decreased the locoregional recurrence rate (LRR) [hazard ratio (HR)=5.602, 95% confidence interval (CI)=3.139-9.998, P<0.01; 3-year LRR: 4 vs. 17%] and improved overall survival (OS) (HR=0.651, 95% CI=0.437-0.971, P=0.03; 3-year OS: 91 vs. 87%) for patients with T1-2N1 breast cancer. By contrast, PMRT had no significant effect on the distant metastasis (DM) rate (HR=0.691, 95% CI=0.468-1.019, P=0.06; 3-year DM: 10 vs. 15%). Further stratified analysis revealed that PMRT did not reduce the LRR and DM, or improve OS in patients aged ≤35 years or in those with a positive human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) status. The analysis of 438 patients treated with PMRT revealed that patients aged ≤35 years or those with a positive HER-2 status were more likely to experience local recurrence even following PMRT. Thus, the benefits of using PMRT in patients with T1-2N1 breast cancer who are aged ≤35 years or in those with a positive HER-2 status need to be carefully considered. Further studies are required to confirm whether this patient group may be exempted from PMRT.
RESUMEN
Starch is one of the key factors for the texture of Chinese steamed bread (CSB). In this study, the molecular structures and physicochemical properties of starches from 11 wheat varieties with amylose content (AC) of 1.75%-28.79% were investigated. Northern style CSB was made using these wheat varieties to explore the structure-property-quality relationship of starches. AC was negatively correlated with the pasting and gelatinization properties. The relative crystallinity (RC) had a negative correlation with AC but a positive correlation with gelatinization. The molecular structure results from the fluorophore-assisted capillary electrophoresis spectrophotometer indicated that the length of short amylopectin chains (ßAp,i ) was positively correlated with hot paste and cool paste viscosities. The amount of medium amylopectin chains (hAp,iii ) was positively correlated with peak and breakdown viscosities but negatively correlated with setback viscosity. The hAp,iii had positive correlations with gelatinization temperatures and RC. The amount of long amylopectin chains (hAp,v ) had a positive correlation with peak temperature. For the CSB texture, ßAp,i had negative correlations with hardness and chewiness, whereas had a positive correlation with resilience. The hAp,iii was negatively correlated with springiness and resilience. The hAp,v was negatively associated with resilience. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Starch has a vital role in wheat flour products. Clarifying the structure-property-quality relationship of starches will help illuminate the role of starch molecular structure in CSB production and provide valuable information for the control of CSB quality. It also provides a significant reference for wheat breeding.

The development of skeletal muscle in animals is a complex biological process, which are strictly and precisely regulated by many genes and non-coding RNAs. Circular RNA (circRNA) was found as a novel class of functional non-coding RNA with ring structure in recent years, which appears in the process of transcription and is formed by covalent binding of single-stranded RNA molecules. With the development of sequencing and bioinformatics analysis technology, the functions and regulation mechanisms of circRNAs have attracted great attention due to its high stability characteristics. The role of circRNAs in skeletal muscle development have been gradually revealed, where circRNAs were involved in various biological processes, such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of skeletal muscle cells. In this review, we summarized the current studies advance of circRNAs involved in skeletal muscle development in bovine, and hope to gain a deeper understanding of the functional roles of the circRNAs in muscle growth. Our results will provide some theoretical supports and great helps for the genetic breeding of this species, and aiming at improving bovine growth and development and preventing muscle diseases.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the effects of phosphorus (P) deficiency in diets on growth performance, hepatic lipid metabolism, and antioxidant capacity in Yellow River Carp Cyprinus carpio haematopterus. METHODS: In this study, 72 healthy experimental fish (initial weight = 12.0 ± 0.1 g [mean ± SE]) were randomly selected and distributed to two groups, with three replicates in each group. The groups were fed either a P-sufficient diet or a P-deficient diet for 8 weeks. RESULT: The P-deficient feed significantly decreased the specific growth rate, feed efficiency, and condition factor of Yellow River Carp. Fish that were fed the P-deficient feed demonstrated higher contents of triglyceride, total cholesterol (T-CHO), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the plasma and a higher T-CHO content in the liver compared to the P-sufficient diet group. In addition, the P-deficient diet significantly reduced the catalase activity level, decreased the glutathione content, and increased the malondialdehyde content in the liver and in the plasma. Furthermore, P deficiency in the diet significantly downregulated the messenger RNA expression of nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α, whereas it upregulated the messenger RNA expression of tumor necrosis factor α and fatty acid synthase in the liver. CONCLUSION: Dietary P deficiency reduced fish growth performance, induced fat deposition and oxidative stress, and impaired liver health.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the microbiological characteristics, antimicrobial resistance profiles, antibiotic choice, and outcomes of Nocardia infection in various centers over a 7-year period (from 2015 to 2021). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all hospitalized patients diagnosed with Nocardia between 2015 and 2021. The isolates were identified to the species level through the sequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA or secA1 or ropB genes. The susceptibility profiles were determined using the broth microdilution method. RESULTS: Of the 130 nocardiosis cases, 99 (76.2%) were established as pulmonary infection, of which the most common underlying disease was chronic lung disease (40.4%, 40/99), including bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chronic bronchitis. Among 130 isolates, 12 species were identified, with the most common species being Nocardia cyriacigeorgica (37.7%) and Nocardia farcinica (20.8%). All Nocardia strains were susceptible to linezolid and amikacin, and the susceptibility rate of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) was 97.7%. Of the 130 patients, 86 (66.2%) received TMP-SMX monotherapy or multidrug regimen. Furthermore, 92.3% patients who were treated achieved clinical improvement. CONCLUSION: TMP-SMX was the treatment of choice for nocardiosis, and other combination drugs with TMP-SMX therapy yielded even better results.

A rapid, accurate, easy-to-use nucleic acid detection technology is essential for disease diagnosis and control. Herein, we improved CRISPR-top (cluster regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-mediated testing in one-pot) to develop Extraction-free one-step CRISPR-assistant detection (ExCad), a simple, rapid, accurate gene detection tool for unextracted colonies and samples. We established a pretreatment protocol to rapidly liquify sputum samples and release nucleic acids within 10 min. The ExCad results can be visualised by a real-time fluorescence reader or the naked eye under blue light. We developed an ExCad-Sp assay to detect Streptococcus pneumoniae from unextracted strains and specimens, and optimised the assay conditions. Assay feasibility was evaluated using sputum samples from 32 patients, and it achieved 92.9 % (13/14) sensitivity, 100 % (18/18) specificity, 100 % (13/13) positive predictive value, and 94.7 % (18/19) negative predictive value compared with bacteria culture. The ExCad-Sp assay has potential for developing an at-home self-testing kit for S. pneumoniae.

Polyphenols from peanut skin have been reported to possess many beneficial functions for human health, including anti-oxidative, antibacterial, anticancer, and other activities. To date, however, its anti-inflammatory effect and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. In this study, the anti-inflammatory effect of peanut skin procyanidins extract (PSPE) and peanut skin procyanidins (PSPc) were investigated by a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis mouse model. The results showed that both PSPE and PSPc supplementation reversed the DSS-induced body weight loss and reduced disease activity index (DAI) values, accompanied by enhanced goblet cell numbers and tight junction protein claudin-1 expression in the colon. PSPE and PSPc treatment also suppressed the inflammatory responses and oxidative stress in the colon by down-regulating IL-1ß, TNF-α, and MDA expressions. Meanwhile, PSPE and PSPc significantly altered the gut microbiota composition by increasing the relative abundance of Clostridium XlVb and Anaerotruncus, and inhibiting the relative abundance of Alistipes at the genus level. PSPE and PSPc also significantly elevated the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in mice with colitis. The correlation analysis suggested that the protective effects of PSPE and PSPc on colitis might be related to the alteration of gut microbiota composition and the formation of SCFAs. In conclusion, the current research indicates that supplementation of PSPE and PSPc could be a promising nutritional strategy for colitis prevention and treatment.
RESUMEN
Since long-range magnetic ordering was observed in pristine Cr2Ge2Te6 and monolayer CrCl3, two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials have gradually become an emerging field of interest. However, it is challenging to induce and modulate magnetism in non-magnetic (NM) materials such as rhenium disulfide (ReS2). Theoretical research shows that defects, doping, strain, particular phase, and domain engineering may facilitate the creation of magnetic ordering in the ReS2 system. These predictions have, to a large extent, stimulated experimental efforts in the field. Herein, we summarize the recent progress on ferromagnetism (FM) in ReS2. We compare the proposed methods to introduce and modulate magnetism in ReS2, some of which have made great experimental breakthroughs. Experimentally, only a few ReS2 materials exhibit room-temperature long-range ferromagnetic order. In addition, the superexchange interaction may cause weak ferromagnetic coupling between neighboring trimers. We also present a few potential research directions for the future, and we finally conclude that a deep and thorough understanding of the origin of FM with and without strain is very important for the development of basic research and practical applications.
RESUMEN
Dynamic engineering of buckling deformation is of vital importance as it provides multiphase modulation of thin film devices. In particular, dynamic switch of buckles between one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) configurations in a single film system on rigid substrates is intriguing but very challenging. The current approach to changing buckling configuration is mainly achieved by varying the built-in stress at the film-substrate interface, but it is difficult to realize dynamic engineering on rigid substrates. Herein, we report a dynamic engineering of buckling deformation in MoS2 thin films by humidity-tuned interfacial adhesion. With the change of humidity, the MoS2 thin films deform from 1D telephone-cord buckles to 2D web-like buckles due to the hydrophilic nature of both MoS2 and substrate. Such 1D-to-2D evolution of buckles is attributed to the weakened interfacial adhesion of mixed deformation modes induced by humidity, which is verified by finite-element modeling. These buckled films further find potential applications as patterned templates for liquid condensation and sensing units for tactile sensors. Our work not only demonstrates the humidity-controlled dimensionality engineering of buckles in MoS2 thin films but also sheds light on the functional applications of buckled films based on their profile features.
RESUMEN
LncRNA RHPN1-AS1 (RHPN1-AS1) has been confirmed to promote tumor progression in multiple cancers and is upregulated in prostate cancer (PCa), but whether it has an effect on PCa progression remains unclear. In this study, we found that PCa patients with high RHPN1-AS1 expression had a shorter survival time, and RHPN1-AS1 was significantly upregulated in PCa tissues and cells. Based on informatics analysis we predicted that miR-7-5p binds to 3'UTR of RHPN1-AS1 and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and verified it by luciferase reporter gene assay. Subsequently, we transfected PCa cells with RHPN1-AS1 overexpression vector (RHPN1-AS1), knockdown plasmids (sh-RHPN1-AS1) and/or miR-7-5p mimics or inhibitor and/or overexpression vector (EGFR) or small interfering RNA of EGFR (si-EGFR) or its control, and found that overexpression of RHPN1-AS1 inhibited miR-7-5p expression and promoted EGFR expression, silencing RHPN1-AS1 inhibited proliferation and invasion, and induced G2/M arrest, apoptosis and autophagy in PCa cells. 3MA (an inhibitor of autophagy)-mediated autophagy inhibition attenuated RHPN1-AS1 inhibition-induced apoptosis. Overexpression miR-7-5p or silencing EGFR promoted LC3-I to LC3-II conversion, enhanced autophagy activity, induced cleaved-caspase-3 expression and apoptosis in PCa cells. Furthermore, overexpression of RHPN1-AS1 promoted phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), AKT and mTOR, inhibited LC3-I to LC3-II conversion and reduced apoptosis in PCa cells, while GSK2126458 (an inhibitor of PI3K) reversed the effect of RHPN1-AS1 on PCa cells. In summary, RHPN1-AS1 acted as a ceRNA of miR-7-5p to upregulate EGFR expression, silencing RHPN1-AS1 suppressed PCa tumor progression by inducing autophagy and apoptosis in PCa cells through the miR-7-5p/EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

Proanthocyanidins have been shown to inhibit the signaling pathways related to oxidative stress and inflammation, also improved cell membrane integrity. The effect of peanut skin proanthocyanidins (PSPc) on CD remains unknown. In this paper, the effect and mechanism of PSPc on glial protein-induced Caco-2 cytotoxicity were studied. The results showed that PSPc may inhibit oxidative stress in DPG-induced CD model in vitro by regulating SIRT1/NRF2 pathway. By regulating SIRT1 and IκB signaling pathways, inhibit the phosphorylation of NF-κB and the deacetylation of NF-κB, inhibit inflammatory response, reduce release of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-6, TNF-α), the cell survival rate was and the expression of TGM2 were improved, avoiding the damage of cell monolayer model. This experiment proved the prominent effect of PSPc on CD intervention. Studying the mechanism of PSPc in the treatment of CD injury will contribute to explore new therapies for CD which will be of great significance to supplement or replace gluten-free diets.
