Enzymatic Debridement (Nexobrid) on Burned Hands: Retrospective Review from a Burn Referral Center in Spain.

Background: In deep burns, the gold standard of treatment is surgical debridement and coverage, but in hands, this may lead to poor aesthetic and functional results due to the complexity of this anatomical area. Enzymatic debridement (Nexobrid) allows for the preservation of the dermal remnant and reduces the number of skin grafts when compared with surgical excision. The study aimed to analyze the patients with intermediate second-degree or deeper burns in hands who required surgical treatment after Nexobrid and those who avoided it. Methods: A descriptive retrospective study of all patients who underwent Nexobrid following hand burns between May 2015 and April 2020 treated in Vall d'Hebrón University Hospital was conducted. After the enzymatic debridement, the burn unit team determined if the burn required conservative treatment or surgery, based on the characteristics of the wound bed. Results: A total of 202 hands were collected. Most hands included in this study had deep second-degree burns (122; 60.4%). Almost half of the hands underwent surgery (99; 49%), and most had deep second-degree burns (61; 61.62%). During follow-up, 24 hands required surgery for sequelae (11.88%) and 62 did not undergo follow-up (30.69%). In the group that needed sequelae surgery, 21 needed surgery after Nexobrid and three of them were healed with conservative treatment after Nexobrid (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Nexobrid decreases the number of surgical procedures in deep burns of the hand because more conservative attitudes are adopted. Also, it seems to reduce the need of surgery due to burn sequelae.

Subdermal dissection technique for pure skin SCIA and ALT perforator flaps in burns and trauma defects: Clinical experience.

BACKGROUND: The pure skin perforator (PSP) flap is gaining popularity for its remarkable thinness. The subdermal dissection technique was recently introduced, allowing for a quicker elevation of a PSP flap. In this report, we present our two-year experience utilizing subdermal dissection for harvesting PSP flaps. METHODS: All patients who had undergone PSP flap reconstruction at our hospital from February 2021 to February 2023 were included. Demographic data, intraoperative variables, flap characteristics, and postoperative outcomes were collected. Surgical planning involved locating the perforator using ultrasound and harvesting the flap using the subdermal dissection technique. RESULTS: A total of 26 PSP flap reconstructions were conducted on 24 patients aged between 15 and 86 years. The flaps were based on perforators issuing from the superficial circumflex iliac artery in 24 cases, and from the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery in 2 cases. Flap sizes ranged from 3 × 1.5 cm to 19 × 6 cm, with a mean thickness of 3.48 mm. The average time for flap harvest was 131.92 min. Postoperatively, we observed four cases of partial necrosis, 1 total flap loss, and 2 instances of vascular thrombosis at the anastomosis site. The flaps exhibited good pliability without contracture, and no debulking procedures were required during the follow-up period (minimum 6 months, range 6-24; mean 9.4615). CONCLUSION: The subdermal dissection technique is a safe and efficient approach for elevating PSP flaps. Our initial experience with this technique has been encouraging, and it currently serves as our preferred reconstructive option for defects requiring thin reconstruction.

Double Z-Rhombic Plasty for Repair of Scalp Defects.

BACKGROUND: The closure of scalp wounds presents with reconstructive challenges due to the poor tissue elasticity. It is not uncommon to require skin grafts for definitive closure, even when large flaps are employed. Herein, we present a novel method for the direct closure of small- to medium-sized wounds defects. It is a modified bilateral rhomboid flap, which enables tension-free closure in many areas of scalp. METHODS: All patients treated with this technique between January 2018 and January 2023 were reviewed. Demographics, complications, and outcomes were reviewed. RESULTS: One hundred forty patients have been operated with this technique. All have been cases of skin tumors. The full flap survival was 97.14%, and they did not present any major local complications, avoiding in all cases the use of skin autografts. Four patients (2.86%) had partial necrosis in the edges of the flap, all managed with topical wound care with good healing and no need of secondary procedures. CONCLUSIONS: This flap is safe and easy to perform when there is skin laxity in the scalp. It can save many skin grafts, simplifying the closure of this area, which can be a first-choice technique on scalp reconstruction.

MEF2D facilitates liver metastasis of gastric cancer cells through directly inducing H1X under IL-13 stimulation.

Liver metastasis is the most common metastatic occurrence in gastric cancer patients, although the precise mechanism behind it remains unclear. Through a combination of proteomics and quantitative RT-PCR, our study has revealed a significant correlation between the upregulation of myocyte enhancer factor-2D (MEF2D) and both distant metastasis and poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients. In mouse models, we observed that overexpressing or knocking down MEF2D in gastric cancer cells respectively promoted or inhibited liver metastasis. Furthermore, our research has demonstrated that MEF2D regulates the transcriptional activation of H1X by binding to the H1X promoter. This regulation leads to the upregulation of H1X, which, in turn, promotes the in vivo metastasis of gastric cancer cells along with the upregulation of the downstream gene ß-CATENIN. Additionally, we found that the expression of MEF2D and H1X at both mRNA and protein levels can be induced by the inflammatory factor IL-13, and this induction exhibits a time gradient dependence. In human gastric cancer tissues, the expression of IL13RA1, the receptor for IL-13, positively correlates with the expression of MEF2D and H1X. IL13RA1 has been identified as an intermediate receptor through which IL-13 regulates MEF2D. In conclusion, our findings suggest that MEF2D plays a crucial role in promoting liver metastasis of gastric cancer by upregulating H1X and downstream target ß-CATENIN in response to IL-13 stimulation. Targeting MEF2D could therefore be a promising therapeutic strategy for the clinical management of gastric cancer. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: MEF2D promotes its transcriptional activation in gastric cancer cells by binding to the H1X promoter and is upregulated by IL-13-IL13RA1, thereby promoting distant metastasis of gastric cancer.

Biomarkers of preschool children with autism spectrum disorder: quantitative analysis of whole-brain tissue component volumes, intelligence scores, ADOS-CSS, and ages of first-word production and walking onset.

BACKGROUND: Preschooling is a critical time for intervention in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD); thus, we analyzed brain tissue component volumes (BTCVs) and clinical indicators in preschool children with ASD to identify new biomarkers for early screening. METHODS: Eighty preschool children (3-6 years) with ASD were retrospectively included. The whole-brain myelin content (MyC), white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and non-WM/GM/MyC/CSF brain component volumes were obtained using synthetic magnetic resonance imaging (SyMRI). Clinical data, such as intelligence scores, autism diagnostic observation schedule-calibrated severity scores, age at first production of single words (AFSW), age at first production of phrases (AFP), and age at walking onset (AWO), were also collected. The correlation between the BTCV and clinical data was evaluated, and the effect of BTCVs on clinical data was assessed by a regression model. RESULTS: WM and GM volumes were positively correlated with intelligence scores (both P < 0.001), but WM and GM did not affect intelligence scores (P = 0.116, P = 0.290). AWO was positively correlated with AFSW and AFP (both P < 0.001). The multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that MyC, AFSW, AFP, and AWO were significantly different (P = 0.005, P < 0.001, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed positive correlations between WM and GM volumes and intelligence scores. Whole-brain MyC affected AFSW, AFP, and AWO in preschool children with ASD. Noninvasive quantification of BTCVs via SyMRI revealed a new visualizable and quantifiable biomarker (abnormal MyC) for early ASD screening in preschool children.

MDMX in Cancer: A Partner of p53 and a p53-Independent Effector.

The p53 tumor suppressor protein plays an important role in physiological and pathological processes. MDM2 and its homolog MDMX are the most important negative regulators of p53. Many studies have shown that MDMX promotes the growth of cancer cells by influencing the regulation of the downstream target gene of tumor suppressor p53. Studies have found that inhibiting the MDMX-p53 interaction can effectively restore the tumor suppressor activity of p53. MDMX has growth-promoting activities without p53 or in the presence of mutant p53. Therefore, it is extremely important to study the function of MDMX in tumorigenesis, progression and prognosis. This article mainly reviews the current research progress and mechanism on MDMX function, summarizes known MDMX inhibitors and provides new ideas for the development of more specific and effective MDMX inhibitors for cancer treatment.

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma with uterine intramural recurrence: Case report of ovarian clear cell carcinoma with fertility sparing treatment.

OBJECTIVE: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma has a poor prognosis in comparison with other pathological types of epithelial ovarian carcinoma. It also has relative resistance to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy with a great risk of recurrence. CASE REPORT: We report a case of recurrent ovarian clear cell carcinoma status after left salpingo-oophorectomy (fertility-sparing debulking operation) and six courses of adjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel (175 mg/m2)/carboplatin (AUC 6)). However, two years after diagnosis, elevated CA-125 accompanied by an intrapelvic mass was noted. Uterine intramural recurrence was found during the second laparotomy. She was treated with right salpingo-oophorectomy and abdominal hysterectomy combined with systemic chemotherapy administration (paclitaxel (175 mg/m2)/carboplatin (AUC 6)) and maintenance therapy (bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg)). There was no other recurrence until one and a half years postoperatively, and the patient was tumor free with regular follow-up. CONCLUSION: In young patients with stage I ovarian clear cell carcinoma, fertility-sparing surgery was considered. Most patients will suffer from tumor recurrence, and also intrauterine recurrence rarely happen.

Timing of antibiotic prophylaxis in term prelabor rupture of membranes: A retrospective cohort study using propensity-score matching.

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether earlier administration of antibiotic prophylaxis after prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM) at term would decrease the incidence of maternal and neonatal infections. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study comparing women with term PROM who were initiated antibiotic prophylaxis within or after 6 h, and within or after 12 h from PROM to delivery during January 2019 to December 2021. Women with term PROM receiving cephalosporin and without contraindications to vaginal delivery or confirmed or suspected infection were included in the study. The primary outcome was puerperal infection, which refers to the reproductive tract infection occurring within 42 days of delivery. The type of pharmacoeconomic evaluation was selected based on the results of compared effectiveness between the early group and the late group. Propensity-score matching (PSM) was used to adjust confounding. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were used to verify the robustness of results. RESULTS: We enrolled 5353 women with term PROM, including 4331 initiated with antibiotic within 6 h, 1022 after 6 h, 5077 within 12 h, and 276 after 12 h. After PSM, no significant difference was observed in the baseline characteristics of the groups. There was no statistical difference between antibiotic use within 6 h and after 6 h, or within 12 h and after 12 h, in puerperal infection (4.6% vs. 4.3%, P = 0.826; 2.9% vs. 4.6%, P = 0.471, respectively), total maternal infection, neonatal sepsis, and total neonatal infection. Cost-minimization analysis showed there was no significant difference between antibiotic use within 6 h and after 6 h, or within 12 h and after 12 h, in direct medical costs. CONCLUSION: This study showed that there was no statistical difference in the efficacy and economy of antibiotic prophylaxis used within 6-12 h after rupture of membranes versus after 6-12 h in women with term PROM.

Down-regulation of METTL5 inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion of triple-negative breast cancer cells through Wnt/6-catenin signaling pathway / 中国药理学通报

Aim To investigate the role and potential mechanism of methyltransferase-like 5 (METTL5) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) . Methods The expression of METTL5 in TNBC tumor tissues and cell lines was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. After shRNA targeting METTL5 (shRNAMETTL5) was transfected into TNBC cells, cell proliferation, migration and invasion were detected by CCK-8, colony formation, wound healing and Transwell assays, respectively. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Wnt/p-catenin signaling-related key proteins. A xenograft tumor model was constructed to verify the effect of METTL5 knockdown on the growth of TNBC cells and Wnt/p-catenin signaling activity in vivo. Results The expression of METTL5 was up-regulated in TNBC tumor tissues and cell lines (P < 0. 01) . Knockdown of METTL5 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of TNBC cells and reduced the expression of Wnt/p-catenin signaling molecules (3-catenin, cyclin Dl, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -2 and MMP-7 (all P < 0. 01) . Knockdown of METTL5 reduced tumor growth and Wnt/pcatenin signaling activity in vivo. Conclusions Knockdown of METTL5 can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of TNBC cells, which may be related to the inhibition of Wnt/p-catenin signaling pathway.

Mechanism of the effect of Xuebijing injection on neurological function and survival of rats after cardiac arrest/cardiopulmonary resuscitation / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To explore the potential mechanism of the effect of Xuebijing injection （XBJ） on neurological function and survival of rats after cardiac arrest （CA）/cardiopulmonary resuscitation （CPR） based on the S-nitrosoglutathione reductase （GSNOR）/S-nitrosoglutathione （GSNO） pathway. METHODS The CA/CPR rat model was established by ventricular fibrillation. Using a sham operation group as control， high-throughput sequencing was employed to analyze and mine the differentially expressed genes （DEGs）. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the contents of GSNOR and GSNO in the hippocampus； the active components of XBJ were screened and subjected to molecular docking analysis with GSNOR. The rats successfully modeled using the same method were divided into model group （n＝30）， inhibitor （GSNOR inhibitor） group （n＝30）， XBJ group （n＝30） and XBJ+inhibitor group （n＝30）， and a sham operation group （n＝30） was set up. Neurological function was evaluated and survival status was recorded at 3 hours， 24 hours and 3 days after the first 89） drug intervention. The contents of GSNOR and GSNO in the hippocampus of rats were determined in each group at the 0191） above time points， and the relationship of the contents of GSNOR and GSNO with modified neurologic severity scale （mNSS） score was analyzed. RESULTS GSNOR coding gene was differentially expressed between the model group and the sham operation group. Compared with the sham operation group， GSNOR content increased significantly in the hippocampus of rats in model group， while GSNO content decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. The active components of XBJ， such as 4- methylenemiltirone and salviolone， could be bound to GSNOR protein， with the binding energy lower than －6 kcal/mol， mainly connected by hydrogen bonds. Animal experiments revealed that mNSS score and GSNOR levels in the hippocampus of rats in the model group were significantly higher than those in the sham operation group （P＜0.05）， while GSNO levels and survival rate were significantly lower than those in the sham operation group （P＜0.05）. The above indexes of rats were improved significantly in administration groups， the mNSS score in the XBJ group was significantly lower than that in the inhibitor group， the content changes of GSNOR and GSNO in the inhibitor group were more obvious than those in the XBJ group， and the various indicators in the XBJ+inhibitor group were significantly better than the XBJ group and the inhibitor group （P＜0.05）. GSNOR content was positively correlated with the mNSS score， and GSNO content was negatively correlated with the mNSS score （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS XBJ can improve the neurological function of rats and enhance their survival rates after CA/CPR， the mechanism of which may be associated with the down-regulation of GSNOR and the up-regulation of GSNO.

Artificial intelligence-based analysis of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte spatial distribution for colorectal cancer prognosis / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

BACKGROUND@#Artificial intelligence (AI) technology represented by deep learning has made remarkable achievements in digital pathology, enhancing the accuracy and reliability of diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. The spatial distribution of CD3 + and CD8 + T cells within the tumor microenvironment has been demonstrated to have a significant impact on the prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to investigate CD3 CT (CD3 + T cells density in the core of the tumor [CT]) prognostic ability in patients with CRC by using AI technology.@*METHODS@#The study involved the enrollment of 492 patients from two distinct medical centers, with 358 patients assigned to the training cohort and an additional 134 patients allocated to the validation cohort. To facilitate tissue segmentation and T-cells quantification in whole-slide images (WSIs), a fully automated workflow based on deep learning was devised. Upon the completion of tissue segmentation and subsequent cell segmentation, a comprehensive analysis was conducted.@*RESULTS@#The evaluation of various positive T cell densities revealed comparable discriminatory ability between CD3 CT and CD3-CD8 (the combination of CD3 + and CD8 + T cells density within the CT and invasive margin) in predicting mortality (C-index in training cohort: 0.65 vs. 0.64; validation cohort: 0.69 vs. 0.69). The CD3 CT was confirmed as an independent prognostic factor, with high CD3 CT density associated with increased overall survival (OS) in the training cohort (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.12-0.38, P <0.001) and validation cohort (HR = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.05-0.92, P = 0.037).@*CONCLUSIONS@#We quantify the spatial distribution of CD3 + and CD8 + T cells within tissue regions in WSIs using AI technology. The CD3 CT confirmed as a stage-independent predictor for OS in CRC patients. Moreover, CD3 CT shows promise in simplifying the CD3-CD8 system and facilitating its practical application in clinical settings.

Risk factors for 5-year complications after midurethral sling surgery for stress urinary incontinence: a retrospective cohort study from Taiwan.

Midurethral sling surgery is the current gold standard worldwide for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) surgery, with over 90% of surgeons worldwide using the midurethral sling for SUI between 2008 and 2018. However, concerns surround mesh-related adverse events associated with the midurethral sling. The decision to use the midurethral sling for surgical treatment has become a challenging one for clinicians, surgeons and patients. We sought to determine the factors for 5-year complications after midurethral sling surgery, to improve the clinical decision-making process. Records were reviewed from a total of 1961 female patients who underwent their first midurethral sling surgery for SUI between 2003 and 2018 at a single teaching hospital in Taiwan. A multivariable Cox proportional hazard model calculated the hazard ratios of risk factors for surgical complications, after adjusting for confounders. Surgical complications (i.e., secondary surgery and urinary retention) occurred in 93 (4.7%) patients within 5 years following the index operations. These patients were more likely to be older, to have a history of menopausal syndrome within 1 year prior to the index operation, a medication history of oral antidiabetic drug use, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), slower average flow rate, and longer voiding time compared with patients without surgical complications. In the multivariate analysis, HRT (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.787; 95% confidence interval, 1.011-3.158, p = 0.04) was significantly associated with surgical complications at 5 years, after adjusting for age, gender, diabetes, menopause syndrome, average flow rate, and sling type. Our findings suggest that a medication history of HRT may be a risk factor associated with surgical complications, especially urinary retention, at 5 years in women undergoing midurethral sling surgery for SUI.

Blood plasma metagenomic next-generation sequencing for identifying pathogens of febrile neutropenia in acute leukemia patients.

To investigate the value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in acute leukemia (AL) patients with febrile neutropenia (FN). We retrospectively reviewed 37 AL patients with FN and compared the results of mNGS with blood culture (BC) and the clinical features of the mNGS-positive group and the mNGS-negative group. A total of 14 detected pathogens were the final clinical diagnosis, of which 9 strains were detected only by mNGS and 5 strains were detected by both mNGS and BC. The top pathogens were Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. A total of 67.57% (25/37) were bacterial infections, and 2.7% (1/37) were fungal or viral infections. The diagnostic positivity rate of mNGS (25/37, 67.6%) was significantly higher than that of BC (7/37, 18.9%), and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Then, we explored the clinical distinction between the mNGS-positive group and the mNGS-negative group, and 3 features were filtered, including lymphocyte count (LY), creatinine levels (Cr), and white blood cell count (WBC). Our study demonstrated that early implementation of mNGS can effectively improve the efficacy of pathogen detection in AL patients with FN. The higher diagnostic positivity rate and the ability to detect additional pathogens compared to BC made mNGS a valuable tool in the management of infectious complications in this patient population. Furthermore, the identified clinical features associated with mNGS results provided additional insights for the clinical indication of infection in AL patients with FN.

miR-124 delivered by BM-MSCs-derived exosomes targets MCT1 of tumor-infiltrating Treg cells and improves ovarian cancer immunotherapy.

Metabolic rewiring of tumor cells leads to an enrichment of lactate in the tumor microenvironment (TME). This lactate-rich environment of solid tumors has been reported to support tumor-infiltrating regulatory T (Treg) cells. Therefore, agents that modify the lactate metabolism of Treg cells have therapeutic potential. Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1), which Treg cells predominantly express, plays an essential role in the metabolism of tumor-infiltrating Treg cells. In this study, we show that miR-124 directly targets MCT1 and reduces lactate uptake, eventually impairing the immune-suppressive capacity of Treg cells. Particularly, exosomal miR-124 derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) slows tumor growth and increases response to PD-1 blockade therapy. These data indicate a potential treatment strategy for improving immune checkpoint blockade therapy using miR-124-carried BM-MSCs-derived exosomes.

Quantum systems in silicon carbide for sensing applications.

This paper summarizes recent studies identifying key qubit systems in silicon carbide (SiC) for quantum sensing of magnetic, electric fields, and temperature at the nano and microscale. The properties of colour centres in SiC, that can be used for quantum sensing, are reviewed with a focus on paramagnetic colour centres and their spin Hamiltonians describing Zeeman splitting, Stark effect, and hyperfine interactions. These properties are then mapped onto various methods for their initialization, control, and read-out. We then summarised methods used for a spin and charge state control in various colour centres in SiC. These properties and methods are then described in the context of quantum sensing applications in magnetometry, thermometry, and electrometry. Current state-of-the art sensitivities are compiled and approaches to enhance the sensitivity are proposed. The large variety of methods for control and read-out, combined with the ability to scale this material in integrated photonics chips operating in harsh environments, places SiC at the forefront of future quantum sensing technology based on semiconductors.

Finding of the optimal preparation and timing of endometrium in frozen-thawed embryo transfer: a literature review of clinical evidence.

Frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) has been a viable alternative to fresh embryo transfer in recent years because of the improvement in vitrification methods. Laboratory-based studies indicate that complex molecular and morphological changes in endometrium during the window of implantation after exogenous hormones with controlled ovarian stimulation may alter the interaction between the embryo and endometrium, leading to a decreased implantation potential. Based on the results obtained from randomized controlled studies, increased pregnancy rates and better perinatal outcomes have been reported following FET. Compared to fresh embryo transfer, fewer preterm deliveries, and reduced incidence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome were found after FETs, yet there is a trend of increased pregnancy-related hypertensive diseases in women receiving FET. Despite the increased application of FET, the search for the most optimal priming protocol for the endometrium is still undergoing. Three available FET protocols have been proposed to prepare the endometrium: i) natural cycle (true natural cycle and modified natural cycle) ii) artificial cycle (AC) or hormone replacement treatment cycle iii) mild ovarian stimulation (mild-OS) cycle. Emerging evidence suggests that the optimal timing for FET using warmed blastocyst transfer is the LH surge+6 day, hCG administration+7 day, and the progesterone administration+6 day in the true natural cycle, modified natural cycle, and AC protocol, respectively. Although still controversial, better clinical pregnancy rates and live birth rates have been reported using the natural cycle (true natural cycle/modified natural cycle) compared with the AC protocol. Additionally, a higher early pregnancy loss rate and an increased incidence of gestational hypertension have been found in FETs using the AC protocol because of the lack of a corpus luteum. Although the common clinical practice is to employ luteal phase support (LPS) in natural cycles and mild-OS cycles for FET, the requirement for LPS in these protocols remains equivocal. Recent findings obtained from RCTs do not support the routine application of endometrial receptivity testing to optimize the timing of FET. More RCTs with rigorous methodology are needed to compare different protocols to prime the endometrium for FET, focusing not only on live birth rate, but also on maternal, obstetrical, and neonatal outcomes.

Anti-PD-1/Her2 Bispecific Antibody IBI315 Enhances the Treatment Effect of Her2-Positive Gastric Cancer through Gasdermin B-Cleavage Induced Pyroptosis.

The majority of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2)-positive gastric cancer develop refractory to Her2-targeted therapy, where upregulation of immune checkpoints plays an essential role. Herein, a recombinant fully human IgG1 bispecific antibody IBI315 targeting both PD-1 and Her2 is developed  and its antitumor efficacy as well as the underlying mechanism is investigated. IBI315 crosslinks the physical interaction between Her2-positive tumor cells and PD-1-positive T cells, resulting in significantly enhanced antitumor effects compared to each parent antibody or their combination, both in vitro and in vivo mouse tumor models reconstituted with human immune cells using patient-derived xenografts and organoids. Moreover, IBI315 treatment also induces the recruitment and activation of immune cells in tumors. Mechanistically, IBI315 triggers gasdermin B (GSDMB)-mediated pyroptosis in tumor cells, leading to the activation and recruiments of T cells. The activated T cells secret IFNγ, enhancing GSDMB expression and establishing a positive feedback loop of T cell activation and tumor cell killing. Notably, GSDMB is found to be elevated in Her2-positive gastric cancer cells, providing a rationale for IBI315's efficacy. IBI315 is supported here as a promising bispecific antibody-based immunotherapy approach for Her2-positive gastric cancer in preclinical studies, broadening the therapeutic landscape of this patient population.
