RESUMO

Gallbladder dysplasia is not common but can be associated with chromosome abnormality and/or some severe complications such as biliary atresia and cystic fibrosis. Therefore, prenatal detection of this problem is of great significance for timely management after birth. However, abnormal gallbladder development is often overlooked in routine mid-term fetal ultrasound scanning. Here, we reviewed the research progress on fetal gallbladder dysplasia, including clinical characteristics and perinatal prognosis of gallbladder duplication, echo substances in gallbladder and gallbladder cholelithiasis, ectopic gallbladder, gallbladder enlargement, and cystic fibrosis, and summarized the types, incidence, clinical features, prenatal diagnosis and perinatal prognosis of non-visualized fetal gallbladder, in order to emphasize the prenatal screening of fetal gallbladder dysplasia.

RESUMO

Gliomas are commonly central nervous system tumors. The conventional treatment is surgical resection combined with chemoradiotherapy, but glioma patients often have a poor prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new potential targets in gliomas and develop more effective treatments. Valproic acid has the properties of histone deacetylase inhibitor, which has been proven to have inhibitory effects on various tumors. It is confirmed that valproic acid could promote apoptosis and cell arrest of glioma cells, inhibit cell invasion and glioma stem cells, increase the sensitivity of glioma cells to radiotherapy and chemotherapy by regulating ERK/Akt signaling pathway, Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, and regulating expression levels of RECK, MGMT, Nrf2, PON2, Smad4, GSK3β and other proteins. In addition, valproic acid can also enhance the effectiveness of anticancer drugs by inhibiting the growth of glioma stem cells and inducing their differentiation. In conclusion, valproic acid can inhibit glioma through multiple targeted actions, and may become a new targeted drug for the treatment of glioma.

RESUMO

Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer, including lung cancer. However, the exact underlying mechanism and therapeutic potential are largely unknown. Here we report that protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6) is highly expressed in lung cancer and is required for cell metabolism, tumorigenicity, and cisplatin response of lung cancer. PRMT6 regulated the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) flux and glycolysis pathway in human lung cancer by increasing the activity of 6-phospho-gluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD) and α-enolase (ENO1). Furthermore, PRMT6 methylated R324 of 6PGD to enhancing its activity; while methylation at R9 and R372 of ENO1 promotes formation of active ENO1 dimers and 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG) binding to ENO1, respectively. Lastly, targeting PRMT6 blocked the oxidative PPP flux, glycolysis pathway, and tumor growth, as well as enhanced the anti-tumor effects of cisplatin in lung cancer. Together, this study demonstrates that PRMT6 acts as a post-translational modification (PTM) regulator of glucose metabolism, which leads to the pathogenesis of lung cancer. It was proven that the PRMT6-6PGD/ENO1 regulatory axis is an important determinant of carcinogenesis and may become a promising cancer therapeutic strategy.

RESUMO

Huangjiu, a traditional Chinese wine with low alcoholic strength, can easily develop rancidification upon microbial contamination in the long-term storage process. In order to analyze the changes in key indexes in the rancidification process during the storage of Huangjiu, a laboratory simulation of microbial contamination changes was carried out. Changes in microbiological indexes, physicochemical indexes, and volatile flavor compounds in the rancidification process of Huangjiu can be divided into two stages. Test results demonstrated that within the early stage of the rancidification process, multiplication of contaminating microorganisms was in the adaptation phase with a slow OD600 growth value of Huangjiu, while physicochemical indexes such as the pH and amino acid nitrogen content changed relatively slowly. The contents of aldehyde compounds in the volatile flavor components of Huangjiu declined quickly to be lower than 1.0 mg/L, while the conductivity index increased by 6%. In the late stage, the OD600 value of Huangjiu increased rapidly and microorganism multiplication entered the logarithmic phase. Furthermore, changes in the physicochemical indexes are accelerated. Specifically, the histamine content increased by 457% and the content of aldehydes remains lower than 1.0 mg/L. The conductivity index continued to rise by 25% in this stage. This indicates that the two rancidification stages have different influences on the quality of Huangjiu. The conductivity value can be used as a staged representative index throughout the rancidification of Huangjiu to distinguish between different batches and evaluate the degree of microbial contamination. Additionally, the conductivity index can be used for long-term online monitoring of large tank storage of Huangjiu.

RESUMO

Objective@#To investigate the localization of HBXIP protein over-expression in gastric adenocarcinoma, and its prognostic significance.@*Methods@#HBXIP localization was detected by immunofluorescence in AGS gastric cancer cell line, and by immunohistochemical staining in 97 gastric adenocarcinomas, 41 adjacent non-tumor tissues and 13 gastric adenoma tissues. Correlation between HBXIP expression and clinicopathological features of gastric cancer patients was evaluated by Chi-square and Fisher′s exact tests. Overall survival rates were calculated using Kaplan-Meier method.@*Results@#HBXIP was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of gastric cancer. The positive and strongly positive expression rates of HBXIP protein in gastric cancers were 68.0% (66/97) and 49.5% (48/97) respectively, and were significantly higher than those in adjacent non-tumor tissues(48.8%, 20/41; 36.6%, 15/41) or gastric adenomas(2/13, 1/13; all P<0.05). HBXIP expression correlated significantly with tumor differentiation and lymph node status (P=0.007; 0.041). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the overall survival rate was significantly lower in gastric cancer patients with high HBXIP expression (P=0.015).@*Conclusions@#HBXIP expression in gastric cancer is mainly expressed in cytoplasmic, and the expression level is closely related to the prognosis. HBXIP expression status may potentially be used as an important prognostic indicator for gastric cancer.

RESUMO

Plantar fasciitis, the most common cause of pain in the inferior heel, accounts for 11% to 15% of all foot symptoms requiring professional care among adults. The present study reports the results of a minimally invasive surgical treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis. All patients with plantar fasciitis who had undergone percutaneous latticed plantar fasciotomy at 3 clinical sites from March 2008 to March 2009 were included in the present study. The follow-up evaluations for this treatment were conducted using the Mayo clinical scoring system. We investigated 17 patients with recalcitrant chronic plantar fasciitis who had undergone this treatment within a follow-up period of ≥13 months. All procedures were performed in the clinic with the patient under local anesthesia. No wound infections or blood vessel or nerve damage occurred. At a mean follow-up period of 16.0 ± 2.29 (range 13 to 21) months, significant improvement was seen in the preoperative mean Mayo score (from 12.06 ± 2.54 to 89.76 ± 4.28, p < .001) and no patient had developed symptom recurrence. Also, none of the patients had developed complex regional pain syndrome. All patients were able to return to regular shoe wear by 3 weeks postoperatively. The technique of plantar fasciitis with percutaneous latticed plantar fasciotomy could be a promising treatment option for patients with recalcitrant chronic plantar fasciitis.

RESUMO

Objective To investigate the role of HBXIP overexpression in the prognostic evaluation of breast cancer. Methods HBXIP expression was detected in the tissues of 60 breast cancer cases and 15 cases of ductal cancer in situ (DCIS) as well as in the adjacent non-tumorous tissues of 27 cases of breast cancer using EnVision immunohistochemical staining method. The correlations between the HBXIP overexpressions and the clinical pathological characters of the patients with breast cancer were also analyzed. Results The HBXIP proteins showed a major cytoplasmic staining pattern in breast cancer. The strongly positive rate of HBXIP was75.0%(45/60) in breast cancer, significantly higher than in DCIS (20.0%, 3/15) and adjacent non-tumorous tissues (14.8%, 4/27). High-level expression of HBXIP was correlated with late clinical stage, lymph node metastasis and HER-2 positive expression in breast cancer. Conclusions The expression level of HBXIP is closely related to the progression and prognosis of breast cancer. It might be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target of breast cancer.

RESUMO

We constructed several recombinant Escherichia coli strains to transform phosphoenolpyruvate: carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS system) and compared the characteristics of growth and metabolism of the mutants. We knocked-out the key genes ptsI and ptsG in PTS system by using Red homologous recombination in E. coli and meanwhile we also knocked-in the glucose facilitator gene glf from Zymomonas mobilis in the E. coli chromosome. Recombinant E. coli strains were constructed and the effects of cell growth, glucose consumption and acetic acid accumulation were also evaluated in all recombinant strains. The deletion of gene ptsG and ptsI inactivated some PTS system functions and inhibited the growth ability of the cell. Expressing the gene glf can help recombinant E. coli strains re-absorb the glucose through Glf-Glk (glucose facilitator-glucokinase) pathway as it can use ATP to phosphorylate glucose and transport into cell. This pathway can improve the availability of glucose and also reduce the accumulation of acetic acid; it can also broaden the carbon flux in the metabolism pathway.
