RESUMEN
Background: Short videos on social media are playing an increasingly important role in cancer health education today. It is important to explore how the actual communication effect of health videos and the knowledge absorption of users are influenced by different factors of the video creation process. Objective: The objective of our study is to access the factors influencing breast cancer health education through short videos on efficiency and quality. Methods: Three pairs of videos about breast health were created and participants completed questionnaires before and after watching the videos. A paired t-test was used to analyze within-group change scores. RM-ANOVA was used to assess the relationship between the pretest, posttest, and three variables. Results: Watching short videos can significantly increase viewers' knowledge of related health topics (p < 0.05). The viewers' concentration level while watching was significantly higher for the video with background music (BGM) than for the video without BGM (p = 0.006). The viewers' willingness to share was significantly higher for the video with a progress bar than for the video without a progress bar (p = 0.02). Using an interpreter wearing a doctor's uniform instead of casual wear and setting a progress bar can significantly improve the efficiency of knowledge absorption (p < 0.05). Conclusion: A uniformed interpreter, BGM and a progress bar are factors influencing the efficiency of short health videos. They can be applied in video making to explore better ways of promoting cancer health education in the new mobile Internet environment.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains a fatal gastrointestinal disorder in neonates. Disialyllacto-N-tetraose (DSLNT), a function-unclear human milk-derived hexasaccharide, shows anti-NEC potential in previous animal studies. This study is aimed to explore the role of mast cell (MC), a fundamental cell type of mucosal immune system and protective DSLNT in regulating pathological process of NEC. For this purpose, infantile intestinal-tissues were collected from NEC neonates for examination of MCs and its proteases-positive cells. MC accumulation and MC-specific proteases (chymase, tryptase and dipeptidyl peptidase I) were firstly found in lesioned area of NEC infants in-vivo. Subsequent in-situ experiments on neonatal ileum segments showed that purified MC-chymase induced a destructive epithelial layer shedding from basement and microvascular endothelium damage in infantile intestinal segments. Human foreskin MC-activation model was established and DSLNT were applied; MC products (histamine and MC-proteases) were used as MC activation/degranulation indicators. In this in-vitro model, DSLNT pretreatment suppressed release of histamine, chymase and tryptase by MC to the tissue supernatants during lipopolysaccharide or complement C5a stimulation. Newborn rats were formula-hand-fed with or without DSLNT supplement and exposed to hypoxia/cold-stress to induce experimental-NEC-model. In NEC rats, DSLNT supplementation reduced the incidence and pathological scores of NEC, inhibited local accumulation of MC and reduced cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNF-α) levels in the ileum of rats. In conclusion, MC was causally implicated in epithelium barrier failure in pathogenesis of NEC. DSLNT favorably modulated MC homeostasis by regulating MC degranulation/accumulation, contributing to attenuated NEC. This indicated novel pathomechanisms and potential targets of NEC.

Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a hereditary early-onset retinal dystrophy that is accompanied by severe macular degeneration. In this study, novel compound heterozygous mutations were identified as LCA-causative in chaperonin-containing TCP-1, subunit 2 (CCT2), a gene that encodes the molecular chaperone protein, CCTß. The zebrafish mutants of CCTß are known to exhibit the eye phenotype while its mutation and association with human disease have been unknown. The CCT proteins (CCT α-θ) forms ring complex for its chaperon function. The LCA mutants of CCTß, T400P and R516H, are biochemically instable and the affinity for the adjacent subunit, CCTγ, was affected distinctly in both mutants. The patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), carrying these CCTß mutants, were less proliferative than the control iPSCs. Decreased proliferation under Cct2 knockdown in 661W cells was significantly rescued by wild-type CCTß expression. However, the expression of T400P and R516H didn't exhibit the significant effect. In mouse retina, both CCTß and CCTγ are expressed in the retinal ganglion cells and connecting cilium of photoreceptor cells. The Cct2 knockdown decreased its major client protein, transducing ß1 (Gß1). Here we report the novel LCA mutations in CCTß and the impact of chaperon disability by these mutations in cellular biology.
