    Abstract: Accumulating evidence has shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) serve a critical regulatory role in various human cancers, including gastric cancer (GC), and in this study, we aimed to explore the functions of circKIF4A in the progression of GC. Our findings demonstrated that circKIF4A was highly expressed in both GC tissues and cell lines, and high intratumoral circKIF4A expression predicted a poor prognosis in GC patients. In vitro gain- and loss-of-function assays indicated that circKIF4A knockdown suppressed the proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT of GC cells, while these malignant behaviors were enhanced by circKIF4A overexpression. Mechanistically, we found that circKIF4A was mainly located in the cytoplasm, could directly interact with microRNA- (miR-) 144-3p, and functions as a miRNA sponge to regulate EZH2 expression in GC cells. miR-144-3p inhibition or EZH2 restoration largely blocked the effects of circKIF4A knockdown on the malignant behaviors of GC cells. This study indicated that circKIF4A can efficiently sponge miR-144-3p to promote the malignant behaviors of GC cells and may provide a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for GC management.

    Abstract: This study is part of a larger research effort to explore the molecular mechanism of hepatocellular carcinoma, reduce drug resistance and seek new targets. Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect and mechanism of fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitor AZD4547 on Sorafenib-resistant hepatoma cells. Methods: First, we constructed a Sorafenib-resistant hepatoma cell line Huh7R. Different groups of Huh7R cells were treated with Sorafenib, AZD4547, Sorafenib combined with AZD4547, and normal saline. The cell viability was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8. Then Fibroblast growth factor receptor and Toll-like receptor 4 were detected by Western blot, as well as the LC3 II/I, Beclin1, and P62. In addition, we used the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine to identify the mechanism of AZD4547 combined with Sorafenib for inducing Sorafenib-resistant hepatoma cell death. Results: We find that AZD4547 combined with Sorafenib significantly inhibited the viability of Sorafenib-resistant hepatoma cell Huh7R. As for its mechanism, AZD4547 was able to inhibit fibroblast growth factor receptor activity, promote autophagy and regulate immunity. AZD4547 increased LC3 II/I, Beclin1, and Toll-like receptor 4 proteins, and decreased P62 protein level in Huh7R cells significantly when given in combination with sorafenib. Furthermore, 3-methyladenine inhibited autophagy and reversed the killing effect of the combination of AZD4547 and Sorafenib on Huh7R cells. Conclusion: The inhibition of fibroblast growth factor receptor activity by AZD4547 can significantly enhance autophagy and immune response, as well as promote the death of Sorafenib-resistant hepatoma cells.

    Abstract: Neutrophil cytoplasmic factor 1/2/4 (NCF1/2/4) belongs to the NADPH oxidase complex, which is a cytoplasmic component, and its polymorphism is the main factor related to autoimmune diseases, which is probably caused by the regulation of peroxide. They also play a role in tumor growth and metastasis. This research is aimed at evaluating the biological function and prognostic role of NCF1, NCF2, and NCF4 genes in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) by using multiple online bioinformatics website, including Oncomine, GEPIA, UALCAN, Kaplan–Meier Plotter, TIMER, TISIDB, cBioPortal, LinkedOmics, GeneMANIA, and DAVID databases. The mRNA levels of NCFs were higher in KIRC tissues than in normal tissues. The overexpression of NCFs was significantly correlated with advanced pathological grades and individual cancer stages in KIRC. Meanwhile, the expressions of NCFs played an important role in the tumorigenesis and progression of KIRC. Prognostic value analysis suggested that high transcription levels of NCF1/4 were associated with poor overall survival in KIRC patients. In addition, results from the LinkedOmics database showed that the KEGG pathway related to NCFs mainly focused on immune activation and immune regulation function. NCF genetic alterations, including copy number amplification, missense mutation, and deep deletion, could be found through the cBioPortal database. Further, NCF expression was significantly correlated with infiltration levels of various immune cells as well as immune signatures. Protein-protein interaction network and enrichment analysis of NCF1/2/4 in KIRC showed that NCF coexpressed genes mainly associated with diverse immune marker sets showed significance. Overall, these results indicated that NCFs could be prognostic biomarkers as well as effective targets for diagnosis in KIRC.

    Abstract: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play central roles in the initiation of innate immune response, and also control adaptive immunity activation. Thus, the aim of the study was to investigate the regulation of TLR activation to CD8 + T cells has not been fully elucidated in gastric cancer (GC). Materials and methods Thirty-two GC patients and twenty-three healthy controls were enrolled. Expression profile of TLRs in peripheral and tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cells was investigated. Purified CD8 + T cells were stimulated with Pam3Csk4, an agonist of TLR2, and cytotoxic and co-inhibitory molecules in CD8 + T cells was measured. Direct and indirect contact coculture system between CD8 + T cells and AGS cells was set up. Modulation of TLR2 activation to CD8 + T cells was assessed by measuring lactate dehydrogenase release and cytokine secretion. Results TLR2 mRNA and TLR2 + cell percentage was down-regulated in GC derived peripheral and tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cells. CD8 + T cells from GC patients showed exhausted phenotype, which presented as decreased perforin/granzyme B, increased programmed death-1, and reduced cytotoxicity to AGS cells. TLR2 activation by Pam3Csk4 enhanced perforin and granzyme B expression in CD8 + T cells, however, did not affect either proinflammatory cytokine production or co-inhibitory molecules expression. Pam3Csk4 stimulation enhanced cytolytic activation of peripheral and tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cells from GC, but not those from healthy individuals. Conclusion The present data revealed an important immunomodulatory activity of TLR2 to CD8 + T cells in GC patients.

    Abstract: So far, a comprehensive animal model that can mimic both the central and peripheral pathophysiological changes of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is lacking. Here, we developed a novel IBS rat model combining trinitro‐benzene‐sulfonic acid (TNBS) and chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) (designated as TC‐IBS) and compared it with the TNBS‐induced and CUMS‐induced models. TC‐IBS showed a pronounced depression phenotype with increased corticotropin‐releasing hormone receptor (CRHR)1 and CRHR2 expression at the frontal cortex and increased serum ACTH concentration. Visceral hypersensitivity (VH), as evidenced by colorectal distention (CRD) test, was highest in TC‐IBS, accompanied by increased serum 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) level and colonic 5‐HT receptor 3A (5‐HT 3A R)/5‐HT receptor 2B expression, impaired tight junction protein expression including occludin, zonula occludens‐1, and phosphorylated myosin light chain. Palonosetron, a second generation of 5‐HT 3A R antagonist, alleviated VH significantly in TC‐IBS. 16S rRNA sequencing showed that TNBS plus CUMS induced a significant disturbance of the gut microbiota. Cytokine profile analysis of TC‐IBS model indicated an innate immune activation both in serum and colonic mucosa. Further, fecal microbiota transplantation improved VH and some pathophysiological changes in TC‐IBS. In summary, we established a postinflammatory IBS model covering multifactorial pathophysiological changes, which may help to develop therapies that target specific IBS subtype.—Ma, J., Li, J., Qian, M., He, N., Cao, Y., Liu, Y., Wu, K., He, S.

    Abstract: Due to the precise vaporization of the novel 450 nm blue diode laser in soft tissues (i.e., bladder and colon) in our previous studies, porcine stomach tissues were applied here to certify its efficacy in endoscopic mucosal resection (ESR)/endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for hypothetical lesions ex vivo and in vivo. Materials and Methods In an ex vivo study of ESR, 20 pieces of tissues (8 cm × 6 cm) from 7 fresh stomachs after spraying saline were vaporized with a three‐dimensional scanning system using the blue diode laser at a maximum of 30 W, a different treatment speed and working distance (WD). In ex vivo ESD, 18 pieces of tissues from 6 fresh stomachs were used and the same laser parameters were used to perform the procedure. The depth, width, and coagulation of the laser vaporization were measured. Furthermore, the large scales (2.0 cm × 1.5 cm) for 18 hypothetical lesions of the gastric mucosa and submucosa of the 6 fresh stomachs were also resected with a modified flexible endoscope. In vivo, six hypothetical lesions of six porcine were vaporized by the novel blue laser, and the resultant lesions at the acute and chronic stages were assessed by the naked eye and hematoxylin and eosin staining. Results In the contact mode, more tissue was vaporized, and the thickness of the coagulation was stable when the WD was 0−2 mm, whose value varied from 0.33 to 1.73 mm. In the gastroscopy model, the mean thickness of coagulation from the mucosa was 0.67 mm, and a significant carbonization zone was not observed. In vivo, the laser beam could accurately act on the hypothetical target. No bleeding and clear vision were present in the procedure. After 3 weeks, tissue healing was well recovered after laser coagulation, resection, and submucosal dissection. Conclusions In the present study, the novel 450 nm blue diode laser exhibited ideal vaporization and thinner coagulation thickness in the porcine stomach, which indicated that it could be alternately used as a new device for stomach lesions.

    Abstract: Few observational studies have investigated the effect of micronutrients on osteomyelitis, and these findings are limited by confounding and conflicting results. Therefore, we conducted Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to evaluate the association between blood levels of eight micronutrients (copper, selenium, zinc, vitamin B12, vitamin C, and vitamin D, vitamin B6, vitamin E) and the risk of osteomyelitis. Methods We performed the two-sample and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MVMR) to investigate causation, where instrument variables for the predictor (micronutrients) were derived from the summary data of micronutrients from independent cohorts of European ancestry. The outcome instrumental variables were used from the summary data of European-ancestry individuals ( n = 486,484). The threshold of statistical significance was set at p & lt; 0.00625. Results We found a significant causal association that elevated zinc heightens the risk of developing osteomyelitis in European ancestry individuals OR = 1.23 [95% confidence interval (CI) [1.07, 1.43]; p = 4.26E-03]. Similarly, vitamin B6 showed a similar significant causal effect on osteomyelitis as a risk factor OR = 2.78 (95% CI [1.34, 5.76] ; p = 6.04E-03; in the secondary analysis). Post-hoc analysis suggested this result (vitamin B6). However, the multivariable Mendelian randomization (MVMR) provides evidence against the causal association between zinc and osteomyelitis OR = 0.98(95% CI [−0.11, 0.07]; p = 7.20E-1). After searching in PhenoScanner, no SNP with confounding factors was found in the analysis of vitamin B6. There was no evidence of a reverse causal impact of osteomyelitis on zinc and vitamin B6. Conclusion This study supported a strong causal association between vitamin B6 and osteomyelitis while reporting a dubious causal association between zinc and osteomyelitis.
