RESUMO
Objective:To analyse the differences of related genes between serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) positive gastric cancer and AFP negative gastric cancer, and the relationship between related genes and prognosis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 1 144 gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery at the 940th Hospital , Joint Logistic Support Force, People's Liberation Army from Jan 2013 to Dec 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 47 cases were of AFP positive gastric cancer, and 47 serum AFP negative case were obtained by proper matching method.Results:Forty-seven patients with serum AFP positive gastric cancer, accounting for 4.1% of all gastric cancer patients during the same period. The prognosis of serum AFP negative gastric cancer is better than that of serum AFP positive gastric cancer. The 1-, 3- and 5-year cumulative survival rates were 95.6% vs. 63.8%, 48.9% vs. 23.4% and 26.7% vs. 14.9%, respectively. There were statistical differences in the immunohistochemistry of AFP, HER2, VEGF, GPC3, SALL4, P53 and Ki67 between the two groups ( χ2=67.758, P<0.001; χ2=4.004, P=0.044; χ2=19.299, P<0.001; χ2=5.232, P=0.022; χ2=6.359, P=0.012; χ2=6.224, P=0.013; χ2=5.232, P=0.022). The more co-positive expressions of AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4, the more likely they were to affect pTNM stage, vascular invasion and liver metastasis ( χ2=5.328, P=0.021; P=0.013; χ2=5.887, P=0.015; χ2=3.923, P=0.048). Univariate and multivariate survival analysis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer showed:AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4 were risk factors for AFP positive gastric cancer ( HR=3.700, P=0.036; HR=4.237, P=0.003; HR=3.916, P=0.004; HR=3.412, P=0.001). Conclusions:Serum AFP positive gastric cancer is a rare and highly invasive special type of gastric cancer. AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4 are overexpressed in serum AFP positive gastric cancer, which is correlated with tumor stage, vascular invasion and liver metastasis. The final diagnosis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer still needs immunohistochemical examination. Preoperative serum AFP level is an important basis for AFP positive gastric cancer screening and AFP immunohistochemical examination.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the relationship between the proportion of M1/M2 macrophages in mononuclear cells of patients with tuberculous pleurisy(TP)and the prognosis of TP.Methods A total of 206 TP patients admitted from June 2019 to December 2022 were selected,and their M1 and M2 mononuclear macrophages were detected at admission.Single factor and logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis of TP,and the predictive value of M1/M2 monocyte macrophage ratio on the poor prognosis of TP was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC).Results Logistic analysis showed that the time from onset to visit,infection resistant bacteria,expression level of ESR,M1 and M2 macrophages,and ratio of M1/M2 macrophages were risk factors for poor prognosis of TP patients(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of M1 and M2 macrophage expression level predicting poor prognosis of TP patients were 0.783 and 0.829,respectively,with sensitivity of 70.45%and 81.47%,and specificity of 79.62%and 73.44%,respectively.The AUC of M1/M2 macrophage ratio predicting poor prognosis of TP patients was 0.921,sensitivity of 92.59%,and specificity of 84.96%,which were significantly higher than those predicted by the two alone(P<0.05).Conclusion The time from onset to treatment,the infection of drug-resistant bacteria,the expression level of ESR,M1 and M2 macrophages,and the ratio of M1/M2 macrophages are the risk factors that affect the poor prognosis of TP patients,and the ratio of M1/M2 macrophages has a high predictive value for the poor prognosis of TP patients.
RESUMO
Alpha-fetoprotein producing gastric cancer (AFPGC) is a special type of gastric cancer. AFPGC is considered to be the most highly invasive tumor with a high degree of malignancy and prone to metastasis. As a consequence, it usually causes unsatisfied treatment effect and the prognosis is poor. At present, treatment methods and monitoring indicators have limited effect on AFPGC. VEGF, HER2, AFP, GPC3 and SALL4 are cogently associated with tumor genesis and development. If we can reasonably guide the treatment and prognosis of AFPGC patients, it will greatly improve the situation of patients and improve the survival of patients. This article reviews the research progress of the genes related to the treatment and prognosis of AFPGC.

The clinicopathological data of 298 patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy in the 940th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of Chinese People's Liberation Army from January 2017 to June 2019 were collected. There were 253 males and 45 females, aged from 24 to 86 years, with a median age of 60 years. Of the 298 patients, 275 cases underwent no serious postoperative complications and 23 cases underwent serious postoperative complications. Observation indicators: (1) serious postoperative complications; (2) analysis of risk factors for serious postoperative complications after Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer; (3) performance evaluation of the predictive indicators. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was conducted using Logistic regression model. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under curve (AUC) was used to compare and estimate the efficiency of diagnostic criteria. The value of Youden index was used to determine the optimal cut-off point. Results:(1) Serious postoperative complications: of the 298 patients, 23 cases underwent complications classified ≥grade Ⅲa of Clavien-Dindo classifica-tion, including 10 cases with grade Ⅲa complications, 7 cases with grade Ⅲb complications, 4 cases with grade Ⅳa complications, 1 case with grade Ⅳb complications and 1 case with grade Ⅴ complications. (2) Analysis of risk factors for serious postoperative complications after Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer. Results of univariate analysis showed that operation time, indicators of C-reactive protein concentration and neutrophil count at post-operative day 1, and indicators of C-reactive protein concentration, white blood cells count, neutrophil count and platelet count at postoperative day 3 and pathological stage were related factors affecting serious complications for advanced gastric cancer after Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy ( χ2=7.671, 4.504, 5.045, 48.293, 9.575, 15.436, 13.731, 9.537, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that the operation time ≥250 minutes, the concentration of C-reactive protein at postoperative day 3 ≥16.65 mg/dL, the neutrophil count at postoperative day 3 ≥8.167×10 9/L, the platelet count at postoperative day 3 ≥218×10 9/L and the pathological stage of tumor as stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ were independent risk factors affecting serious complications for advanced gastric cancer after Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy ( odds ratio=3.721, 16.084, 6.056, 6.893, 12.455, 95% confidence interval: 1.032-13.421, 4.657-55.547, 1.073-34.163, 1.798-26.423, 1.338-115.930, P<0.05). (3) Performance evaluation of the predictive indicators: the C-reactive protein concentration at postoperative day 3 was a high-performance predictor with the AUC as 0.851 (95% c onfidence interval: 0.780-0.921, P<0.05) and neutrophil count and platelet count at postoperative day 3 were low-performance predictors with the AUC as 0.659 and 0.666 (95% confidence interval: 0.570-0.748 and 0.581-0.750, P<0.05). Conclusion:The C-reactive protein concentration ≥16.65 mg/dL at postoperative day 3 is a high performance predictive indicator for serious complications after Da Vinci robotic surgical system radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer.

RESUMO
In mammalian cells, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) form complexes with proteins to execute various biological functions such as gene transcription, RNA processing and other signaling activities. However, methods to track endogenous lncRNA dynamics in live cells and screen for lncRNA interacting proteins are limited. Here, we report the development of CERTIS (CRISPR-mediated Endogenous lncRNA Tracking and Immunoprecipitation System) to visualize and isolate endogenous lncRNA, by precisely inserting a 24-repeat MS2 tag into the distal end of lncRNA locus through the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. In this study, we show that CERTIS effectively labeled the paraspeckle lncRNA NEAT1 without disturbing its physiological properties and could monitor the endogenous expression variation of NEAT1. In addition, CERTIS displayed superior performance on both short- and long-term tracking of NEAT1 dynamics in live cells. We found that NEAT1 and paraspeckles were sensitive to topoisomerase I specific inhibitors. Moreover, RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) of the MS2-tagged NEAT1 lncRNA successfully revealed several new protein components of paraspeckle. Our results support CERTIS as a tool suitable to track both spatial and temporal lncRNA regulation in live cells as well as study the lncRNA-protein interactomes.

postoperative recovery time,increase the number of lymph node dissection,however,it will increase the treatment expense.
RESUMO
Perillyl alcohol, [4-isopropylene-1-cyclohexene] methanol, is a monocyclic monoterpene alcohol with special odorous similar to that of linalool and terpineol. It has application potential in pharmaceutical, daily chemical and food industries. In this study, one method for the synthesis of perillyl alcohol through the MVA pathway was studied. First, the MVA metabolic pathway originated from Enterococcus faecalis was constructed in Escherichia coli to synthesize limonene. Limonene was further transformed to perillyl alcohol by the hydroxylation of cytochrome P450 alkane hydroxylase. Furthermore, the shake flask fermentation condition of the engineered E. coli strain was optimized. The results showed that the engineered E. coli could produce about 50.12 mg/L perillyl alcohol through MVA pathway using glucose as raw material. In this study, the method of the MVA pathway for perillyl alcohol synthesis was constructed successfully in engineered E. coli, which provides both theoretical and technical support for terpenoids biosynthesis.

RESUMO
Objective To observe the effect of daidzein on extracellular matrix of uremic rats and to discuss its mechanism.Methods Uremic rat model were established by 5/6 nephrectomized. Model rats were devided into daidzein group, control group. Rats with sham-operation were regarded as the normal control. At time of baseline, 4th and 8th week after operation, urinary protein and biochemical detection were measured. The pathologic changes, fibronectin (FN) and typeⅣcollagen (ColⅣ) were investigated at 8th week. The Western-Blot and RT-PCR were used to measure protein expression and mRNA transcription of TGF-β1. Results At 8th week after operation, the urinary protein (12.35 ± 2.13 mg/24 hvs. 19.93 ± 3.19 mg/24 h), serum urea (10.11 ± 0.65 mmol/Lvs.12.09 ± 0.78 mmol/L) and creatinine (68.10 ± 2.51μmol/Lvs.77.63 ± 3.20μmol/L) in the daidzein group decreased significantly than those in the control group (P<0.01). The deposition of ColⅣ (16.33% ± 2.14%vs. 24.68% ± 3.97%) and FN (19.17 ± 2.68 vs. 29.35 ± 4.15) in the daidzein group decreased significantly than those in the control group (P<0.01). Compared with control group, the pathological lesion in the daidzein group was less serious. The mRNA transcription (0.37 ± 0.06vs. 0.64 ± 0.08) and protein expression of TGF-β1 (0.28 ± 0.09vs. 1.40 ± 0.13) in the daidzein group were attenuated significantly than those in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionsDaidzein had a beneficial effect on uremic rats. It may be associated with a decrease of extracellular matrix accumulation.
