Abstract
Due to the rising demand in cross-sectional thoracic imaging, anterior mediastinal lesions are being identified with increasing frequency. Following iterative and multidisciplinary discussions, the BTOG Thymic Malignancies Special Interest Group have developed an algorithm to standardise the diagnostic approach for these relatively uncommon but important conditions which span from benign (thymic remnant, thymic hyperplasia and thymic cysts) to suspected localised thymomas to suspected more aggressive malignancy (thymic carcinoma, lymphoma and germ cell tumours). For each condition, we provide a brief description, an overview of the key radiological findings and a description of the proposed algorithm including the rationale behind the recommendations. We also highlight the role of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the characterisation of anterior mediastinal masses in specific indications when the necessary local resources and expertise exist. In addition, we hope this provides the rationale for service development in MR of the anterior mediastinum where current resource and expertise requires development. Through this standardised pathway, we hope to drive improvements in patient care by rationalising surveillance schedules, avoiding unnecessary resections of benign entities with their associated morbidity and optimising the diagnostic work-up prior to the appropriate treatment of anterior mediastinal malignancies.

Abstract
The efficient transport of proteins into the primary cilium is a crucial step for many signaling pathways. Dysfunction of this process can lead to the disruption of signaling cascades or cilium assembly, resulting in developmental disorders and cancer. Previous studies on the protein delivery to the cilium were mostly focused on the membrane-embedded receptors. In contrast, how soluble proteins are delivered into the cilium is poorly understood. In our work, we identify the exocyst complex as a key player in the ciliary trafficking of soluble Gli transcription factors. In line with the known function of the exocyst in intracellular vesicle transport, we demonstrate that soluble proteins, including Gli2/3 and Lkb1, can use the endosome recycling machinery for their delivery to the primary cilium. Finally, we identify GTPases: Rab14, Rab18, Rab23, and Arf4 that are involved in vesicle-mediated Gli protein ciliary trafficking. Our data pave the way for a better understanding of ciliary transport and uncover transport mechanisms inside the cell.

Abstract
Two coding variants of apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1), called G1 and G2, explain much of the excess risk of kidney disease in African Americans. While various cytotoxic phenotypes have been reported in experimental models, the proximal mechanism by which G1 and G2 cause kidney disease is poorly understood. Here, we leveraged 3 experimental models and a recently reported small molecule blocker of APOL1 protein, VX-147, to identify the upstream mechanism of G1-induced cytotoxicity. In HEK293 cells, we demonstrated that G1-mediated Na+ import/K+ efflux triggered activation of GPCR/IP3-mediated calcium release from the ER, impaired mitochondrial ATP production, and impaired translation, which were all reversed by VX-147. In human urine-derived podocyte-like epithelial cells (HUPECs), we demonstrated that G1 caused cytotoxicity that was again reversible by VX-147. Finally, in podocytes isolated from APOL1 G1 transgenic mice, we showed that IFN-γ-mediated induction of G1 caused K+ efflux, activation of GPCR/IP3 signaling, and inhibition of translation, podocyte injury, and proteinuria, all reversed by VX-147. Together, these results establish APOL1-mediated Na+/K+ transport as the proximal driver of APOL1-mediated kidney disease.

Abstract
Scarcity of labels for medical images is a significant barrier for training representation learning approaches based on deep neural networks. This limitation is also present when using imaging data collected during routine clinical care stored in picture archiving communication systems (PACS), as these data rarely have attached the high-quality labels required for medical image computing tasks. However, medical images extracted from PACS are commonly coupled with descriptive radiology reports that contain significant information and could be leveraged to pre-train imaging models, which could serve as starting points for further task-specific fine-tuning. In this work, we perform a head-to-head comparison of three different self-supervised strategies to pre-train the same imaging model on 3D brain computed tomography angiogram (CTA) images, with large vessel occlusion (LVO) detection as the downstream task. These strategies evaluate two natural language processing (NLP) approaches, one to extract 100 explicit radiology concepts (Rad-SpatialNet) and the other to create general-purpose radiology reports embeddings (DistilBERT). In addition, we experiment with learning radiology concepts directly or by using a recent self-supervised learning approach (CLIP) that learns by ranking the distance between language and image vector embeddings. The LVO detection task was selected because it requires 3D imaging data, is clinically important, and requires the algorithm to learn outputs not explicitly stated in the radiology report. Pre-training was performed on an unlabeled dataset containing 1,542 3D CTA - reports pairs. The downstream task was tested on a labeled dataset of 402 subjects for LVO. We find that the pre-training performed with CLIP-based strategies improve the performance of the imaging model to detect LVO compared to a model trained only on the labeled data. The best performance was achieved by pre-training using the explicit radiology concepts and CLIP strategy.

Abstract
Pb isotope ratios are used for apportioning the sources of Pb in the blood of children (ages 1-6) screened for high blood Pb levels (>5 μg/dL) surrounding urban areas of Kansas City, MO. We compared Pb isotope ratios measured in the child's blood with those of the most likely sources of Pb in that child's home environment. The environmental sources sampled consisted of topsoils, paints, occupational sources (e.g., oil rig workers' uniforms, mechanics' clothes), indoor air filters, dusts, and dietary sources (e.g., spices). Blood lead levels (BLL) ranged from 2.9 to 12.7 μg/dL in children from the five homes participating in this study. Measurements of 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb and 208Pb/204Pb isotope ratios were made by multi-collector ICP-MS. Comparison of the Pb isotope ratios in home environment samples versus those in the child's blood in each home allowed the identification of possible sources of a child's Pb exposure in three homes. In five homes investigated, children's blood Pb levels were most likely to be derived from dusts inside, and topsoil outside, the homes, or a mixture thereof. In one case, blood Pb was derived from turmeric spice and, in another, the Pb was derived from paint. It is not always possible to directly link high BLLs to the environmental sources collected when Pb isotope ratios of the environmental samples did not overlap with those of the blood.

Search for Subsolar-Mass Binaries in the First Half of Advanced LIGO's and Advanced Virgo's Third Observing Run. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 129:061104. [PMID: 36018635 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.061104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2021] [Revised: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
We report on a search for compact binary coalescences where at least one binary component has a mass between 0.2 M_{⊙} and 1.0 M_{⊙} in Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo data collected between 1 April 2019 1500 UTC and 1 October 2019 1500 UTC. We extend our previous analyses in two main ways: we include data from the Virgo detector and we allow for more unequal mass systems, with mass ratio q≥0.1. We do not report any gravitational-wave candidates. The most significant trigger has a false alarm rate of 0.14 yr^{-1}. This implies an upper limit on the merger rate of subsolar binaries in the range [220-24200] Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1}, depending on the chirp mass of the binary. We use this upper limit to derive astrophysical constraints on two phenomenological models that could produce subsolar-mass compact objects. One is an isotropic distribution of equal-mass primordial black holes. Using this model, we find that the fraction of dark matter in primordial black holes in the mass range 0.2 M_{⊙}<m_{PBH}<1.0 M_{⊙} is f_{PBH}≡Ω_{PBH}/Ω_{DM}≲6%. This improves existing constraints on primordial black hole abundance by a factor of ∼3. The other is a dissipative dark matter model, in which fermionic dark matter can collapse and form black holes. The upper limit on the fraction of dark matter black holes depends on the minimum mass of the black holes that can be formed: the most constraining result is obtained at M_{min}=1 M_{⊙}, where f_{DBH}≡Ω_{DBH}/Ω_{DM}≲0.003%. These are the first constraints placed on dissipative dark models by subsolar-mass analyses.

A Systems Approach to Remediating Human Exposure to Arsenic and Fluoride From Overexploited Aquifers. GEOHEALTH 2022; 6:e2022GH000592. [PMID: 35799913 PMCID: PMC9250112 DOI: 10.1029/2022gh000592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 05/14/2023]
Abstract
In semiarid agricultural regions, aquifers have watered widespread economic development. Falling water tables, however, drive up energy costs and can make the water toxic for human consumption. The study area is located in central Mexico, where arsenic and fluoride are widely present at toxic concentrations in well water. We simulated the holistic outcomes from three pumping scenarios over 100 years (2020-2120); (S1) pumping rates increase at a similar rate to the past 40 years, (S2) remain constant, or (S3) decrease. Under scenario S1, by 2120, the depth to water table increased to 426 m and energy consumption for irrigation increased to 4 × 109 kWh/yr. Arsenic and fluoride concentrations increased from 14 to 46 μg/L and 1.0 to 3.6 mg/L, respectively. The combined estimated IQ point decrements from drinking untreated well water lowered expected incomes in 2120 by 27% compared to what they would be with negligible exposure levels. We calculated the 100-year Net Present Value (NPV) of each scenario assuming the 2020 average crop value to water footprint ratio of 0.12 USD/m3. Without drinking water mitigation, S1 and S3 yielded relative NPVs of -5.96 × 109 and 1.51 × 109 USD, respectively, compared to the base case (S2). The relative NPV of providing blanket reverse osmosis treatment, while keeping pumping constant (S2), was 11.55 × 109 USD and this gain increased when combined with decreased pumping (S3). If a high value, low water footprint crop was substituted (broccoli, 1.51 USD/m3), the net gains from increasing pumping were similar in size to those of implementing blanket drinking water treatment.

Abstract
COVID-19 infection causes collapse of glomerular capillaries and loss of podocytes, culminating in a severe kidney disease called COVID-19–associated nephropathy (COVAN). The underlying mechanism of COVAN is unknown. We hypothesized that cytokines induced by COVID-19 trigger expression of pathogenic APOL1 via JAK/STAT signaling, resulting in podocyte loss and COVAN phenotype. Here, based on 9 biopsy-proven COVAN cases, we demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that APOL1 protein was abundantly expressed in podocytes and glomerular endothelial cells (GECs) of COVAN kidneys but not in controls. Moreover, a majority of patients with COVAN carried 2 APOL1 risk alleles. We show that recombinant cytokines induced by SARS-CoV-2 acted synergistically to drive APOL1 expression through the JAK/STAT pathway in primary human podocytes, GECs, and kidney micro-organoids derived from a carrier of 2 APOL1 risk alleles, but expression was blocked by a JAK1/2 inhibitor, baricitinib. We demonstrate that cytokine-induced JAK/STAT/APOL1 signaling reduced the viability of kidney organoid podocytes but was rescued by baricitinib. Together, our results support the conclusion that COVID-19–induced cytokines are sufficient to drive COVAN-associated podocytopathy via JAK/STAT/APOL1 signaling and that JAK inhibitors could block this pathogenic process. These findings suggest JAK inhibitors may have therapeutic benefits for managing cytokine-induced, APOL1-mediated podocytopathy.

Abstract
Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Blood pressure variability (BPV) is a potential predictor for complications such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke, and all-cause death, independently of mean blood pressure (BP) in patients with hypertension.(1)
Objective
The survey was carried out to seek the opinion of Indian clinicians on the burden, measurement and management of BPV in patients with hypertension.
Method
This PAN-India survey used a structured web-based objective questionnaire that was administered to 200 clinicians via google forms. The responses were analyzed descriptively.
Results
This study suggests that >80% of the clinicians reported that 10-40% of their hypertensive patients experience BPV while 13% and 6.5% respectively, reported having BPV issues in <10% and >40% of their patients.
A large majority of the clinicians (88.5%) agreed that effective control of BPV in hypertensive patients exerts benefits to prevent complications like target organ damage, cardiovascular disease and mortality.
A combination of home and office BP monitoring was the most recommended approach for the measurement of BPV by 28% of the clinicians, followed by home monitoring (23%) > ambulatory monitoring (22.5%) > combination of ambulatory and office monitoring (21%) > office monitoring (4.5%) of BP. A majority of clinicians opted for angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) + calcium channel blocker (CCB), ARB + beta blocker (BB) and ARB + diuretic as most preferred antihypertensive combination for effective control of BP and BPV (Figure 1). In particular, the clinicians opined for Telmisartan + Amlodipine (45.5%) > Telmisartan + Chorthalidone (27%) > Telmisartan + Cilnidipine (14%) > Telmisartan + Hydrochlorothiazide (13%) as the preferred antihypertensive combinations.
41% and 30.5% of the clinicians reported that they would shift their patients with high BPV to a dual and a triple combination of antihypertensives, respectively followed by increasing the antihypertensive dose (18%) and shifting to new antihypertensive medication (8.5%).
Conclusion
The survey underlined the considerable prevalence of BPV in hypertensive individuals and that its control can be beneficial in reducing the risk of future complications. The study also reflects that both home and office BP monitoring are important to identify BPV while ARBs particularly, Telmisartan in combination with CCB or a diuretic is the preferred regimen for effective control of BP and BPV.

Abstract
On 12 March 2020 the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared a pandemic of SARS-COV-2(Covid 19). We report a case of a 58-year-old man who presented with dyspnoea, pyrexia and a dry cough. Upon admission he was noted to be in a severe Type 1 Respiratory Failure with Bi-lateral pulmonary infiltrates suggestive of Covid 19 infection. Rapid transfer to ITU ensued with Intubation, Ventilation and Inotropic support. Priapism was noted a day into admission which was subsequently aspirated by the Urology team, achieving detumescence. Priapism is a state of persistent penile erection that continues for 4 hours beyond sexual stimulation. We describe the role of thrombosis, dysregulation of the clotting cascade and acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) as shared pathologies in priapism and Covid 19 infection. We highlight the importance of vigilance for extra-pulmonary manifestations of Covid-19 and feel that the pro-thrombotic phenomena exhibited by Covid-19 infection affects distal vasculature in the same manner as Low Flow Priapism and hence explains why our patient suffered from this particular urological complication

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Deep sternal wound infections (DSWI) are a serious complication following cardiac surgery that comprise of any infection penetrating the subcutaneous tissue of the sternum. DSWI have been found to increase mortality and worsen prognostic outcomes following surgery.
Method
We conducted a retrospective cohort study using hospital e-records from 2000 to 2017 of all adult patients operated on with a median sternotomy at our institution. Univariate and multivariate analysis along with mortality and Kaplan-Meier survival curves compared the DSWI population against the remaining study population, using SPSS-25 software.
Results
Of 15521 total patients in the study, 145 (0.9%) suffered a DSWI. Variables that were associated with DSWI included age at operation (p = 0.019), gender (p = 0.007), BMI (p = 0.001), diabetes (p < 0.0001), renal disease (p = 0.008), operative urgency (p = 0.007), type of operation (p = 0.02), Euroscore (p = <0.0001), bypass-time (p = 0.038) and crossclamp-time (p = 0.008). A logistic regression encompassing significant variables revealed that gender (p = 0.031 CI 1.45-1.96), BMI (p < 0.0001 CI 1.03-1.10), diabetes (p = 0.007 CI 1.20-3.67) and type of operation (p = 0.018 CI 1.23-1.87) remained significant when covariate contribution was eliminated. DSWI subgroup mortality was insignificant at 30 days (3.4%vs2.9%, p = 0.68) but significantly worse at 90 days (8.3%vs3.7%, p = 0.004) and at 1 year (17.2%vs5.4%, p < 0.0001). Kaplan-Meier analysis depicted a significantly worse survival distribution for the DSWI population compared to rest of study (Log-Rank<0.05).
Conclusions
At our centre, DSWI are attributable to certain modifiable and set demographics and contribute heavily to medium-term mortality. A better understanding of DSWI risk factors may pinpoint those at risk and benefit the multidisciplinary team to ultimately reduce the rate of DSWI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence suggests that post-TB lung disease (PTLD) causes significant morbidity and mortality. The aim of these clinical standards is to provide guidance on the assessment and management of PTLD and the implementation of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR).METHODS: A panel of global experts in the field of TB care and PR was identified; 62 participated in a Delphi process. A 5-point Likert scale was used to score the initial ideas for standards and after several rounds of revision the document was approved (with 100% agreement).RESULTS: Five clinical standards were defined: Standard 1, to assess patients at the end of TB treatment for PTLD (with adaptation for children and specific settings/situations); Standard 2, to identify patients with PTLD for PR; Standard 3, tailoring the PR programme to patient needs and the local setting; Standard 4, to evaluate the effectiveness of PR; and Standard 5, to conduct education and counselling. Standard 6 addresses public health aspects of PTLD and outcomes due to PR.CONCLUSION: This is the first consensus-based set of Clinical Standards for PTLD. Our aim is to improve patient care and quality of life by guiding clinicians, programme managers and public health officers in planning and implementing adequate measures to assess and manage PTLD.

Abstract
A monotonous relation between strain and measured electric resistance is highly appreciated in stretchable elastomer sensors. In real-life application the voids or technological holes of strained samples often induce non-homogeneous local strain. The present article focused on studying the effect of non-homogeneous local strain on measured direct current (DC) effective electric resistance (EER) on samples of natural rubber (NR), reinforced with 50, 60 and 70 phr of carbon black (CB). Samples were imparted geometrical inhomogeneities to obtain varied local strains. The resulting strain distribution was analyzed using Digital Image Correlation (DIC). EER exhibited a well-detectable influence of locations of inhomogeneities. Expectedly, the EER globally decreased with an increase in CB loading, but showed a steady increase as a function of strain for 50 and 60 phr over the complete testing protocol. Interestingly, for 70 phr of CB, under the same testing conditions, an alternating trend in EER was encountered. This newly observed behavior was explained through a novel hypothesis—“current propagation mode switching phenomenon”. Finally, experimentally measured EERs were compared with the calculated ones, obtained by summing the global current flow through a diversity of strain dependent resistive domains.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Cardiac surgery in octogenarians contains many age-specific perioperative risk factors and outcomes yet to be fully understood.
Method
All adults (N = 4957) undergoing cardiac surgery between 2011-2017 at our institution were retrospectively studied, encompassing 312 octogenarians. Data was evaluated with univariate and multivariate testing and mortality with Kaplan-Meier and cox-regression analyses.
Results
Compared to septuagenarians, octogenarians revealed more patients having previous surgery (p = 0.016), less diabetic patients (p = 0.034), lower BMI (0.002), and longer hospital stay (p < 0.000). Compared to rest of study, octogenarians contained more females (p = 0.012), a greater Euroscore (p < 0.000), spent longer in ITU (p = 0.001) and contained more ITU readmissions (p = 0.023). The octogenarians did not contain significant 30- and 90-day mortality but revealed significant mortality at 1-year versus septuagenarians (p = 0.039) and rest of study (p = 0.001). Variables testing significant in a multivariate regression were inserted into a cox-regression that found octogenarian group-membership to be insignificant (p = 0.051) in a 12-covariate model. Independent risk factors for mortality included emergency surgery (p = 0.04), reoperation (p < 0.000), cardiac procedure (p = 0.007), ITU time (p = 0.041) and diabetes (p = 0.023).
Conclusions
We report specific differences for octogenarians in perioperative characteristics along with promising short- and medium-term survival. Such outcomes must constantly be monitored so that cardiac surgery can be further tailored to this elderly cohort.

Cropland trees need to be included for accurate model simulations of land-atmosphere heat fluxes, temperature, boundary layer height, and ozone. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 751:141728.

Abstract
Trees significantly impact land-atmosphere feedbacks through evapotranspiration, photosynthesis and isoprene emissions. These processes influence the local microclimate, air quality and can mitigate temperature extremes and sequester carbon dioxide. Despite such importance, currently only 5 out of 15 atmospheric chemistry climate models even partially account for the presence of cropland trees. We first show that the tree cover over intensely farmed regions in Asia, Australia and South America is significantly underestimated (e.g. only 1-3% tree cover over north-India) in the Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosol from Nature (MEGAN) and absent in Noah land-surface module of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF-Chem) Model. By including the actual tree cover (~10%) over the north-west Indo Gangetic Plain in the Noah land-surface module of the WRF-Chem and the MEGAN module, during the rice growing monsoon season in August, we find that the latent heat flux alone increases by 100%-300% while sensible heat flux reduces by 50%-100%, leading to a reduction in daytime boundary layer height by 200-400 m. This greatly improves agreement between the modelled and measured temperature, boundary layer height and surface ozone, which were earlier overestimated and isoprene and its oxidation products which were earlier underestimated. Mitigating peak daytime temperatures and ozone improves rice production by 10 to 20%. Our findings from north west Indo-Gangetic Plain establish that such plantations mitigate heat stress, and have beneficial effects on crop yields while also sequestering carbon. Expanding agroforestry practices to 50% of the cropland area could result in up to 40% yield gain regionally. Implementing such strategies globally could increase crop production and sequester 0.3-30 GtC per year, and therefore future climate mitigation and food security efforts should consider stakeholder participation for increased cropland agroforestry in view of its beneficial effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two coding renal risk variants (RRVs) of the APOL1 gene (G1 and G2) are associated with large increases in CKD rates among populations of recent African descent, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unknown. Mammalian cell culture models are widely used to study cytotoxicity of RRVs, but results have been contradictory. It remains unclear whether cytotoxicity is RRV-dependent or driven solely by variant-independent overexpression. It is also unknown whether expression of the reference APOL1 allele, the wild-type G0, could prevent cytotoxicity of RRVs. METHODS We generated tetracycline-inducible APOL1 expression in human embryonic kidney HEK293 cells and examined the effects of increased expression of APOL1 (G0, G1, G2, G0G0, G0G1, or G0G2) on known cytotoxicity phenotypes, including reduced viability, increased swelling, potassium loss, aberrant protein phosphorylation, and dysregulated energy metabolism. Furthermore, whole-genome transcriptome analysis examined deregulated canonical pathways. RESULTS At moderate expression, RRVs but not G0 caused cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner that coexpression of G0 did not reduce. RRVs also have dominant effects on canonical pathways relevant for the cellular stress response. CONCLUSIONS In HEK293 cells, RRVs exhibit a dominant toxic gain-of-function phenotype that worsens with increasing expression. These observations suggest that high steady-state levels of RRVs may underlie cellular injury in APOL1 nephropathy, and that interventions that reduce RRV expression in kidney compartments may mitigate APOL1 nephropathy.

Abstract
ALTHOUGH CURABLE, TB frequently leaves the individual with chronic physical and psycho-social impairment, but these consequences have been largely neglected. The 1st International Post-Tuberculosis Symposium (Stellenbosch, South Africa) was held to discuss priorities and gaps in addressing this issue. A barrier to progress has been the varied terminology and nomenclature, so the Delphi process was used to achieve consensus on definitions. Lack of sufficient evidence hampered definitive recommendations in most domains, including prevention and treatment of post-TB lung disease (PTLD), but the discussions clarified the research needed. A consensus was reached on a toolkit for future PTLD measurement and on PTLD patterns to be considered. The importance of extra-pulmonary consequences and progressive impairment throughout the life-course was identified, including TB recurrence and increased mortality. Patient advocates emphasised the need to address the psychological and social impacts post TB and called for clinical guidance. More generally, there is an urgent need for increased awareness and research into post-TB complications.

Abstract
Abstract
Despite advances in treatment and early detective measures for colorectal cancer (CRC), African-Americans (AAs) suffer disproportionately from CRC (~25% higher incidence and ~50% higher mortality) than Caucasians. Furthermore, AAs tend to receive earlier diagnoses in CRC and AA CRCs with high-grade differentiation were 3xs more likely to die within 5 yrs post-surgery as compared to whites (Alexander et al., Cancer 2005). The underlying mechanisms behind this more aggressive disease in AAs are poorly understood. Tomassati and Vogelstein postulate stem cell division correlates with risk of cancer (Science 2015). Addressing disease progression/aggressiveness, CRC stem cell markers are linked to chemoresistance; stem cell markers LGR5 and ALDH1a are established CRC stem cell markers. We have shown that the cohesin family member STAG1, a chromatin remodeler, is lost in the colonic epithelium of patients with premalignant lesions and AAs had a more profound loss (Cancer Prev Research 2016) through AA-specific STAG1 SNPs (Neoplasia 2018) and hypothesize that STAG1 loss is associated with poorer prognosis. Therefore, we wanted to investigate if STAG1 loss may lead to CRC stem cell induction as a potential mechanism of the racial disparities in CRC. RNA from rectal biopsies from 100 patients undergoing screening colonoscopies was processed for real-time PCR for CRC stem cell markers LGR5 and ALDH1a, as well as STAG1. To determine chemoresistance, STAG1 siRNA was transfected in CRC cell line HT29 and a CRISPR transfection of STAG1 SNP rs34149860 (found only in AAs) was transfected in CRC cell line RKO (possessing wildtype to SNP). Cell were treated with 5-FU and oxaliplatin and subjected to Annexin V Assay. Real-time PCR and analysis of STAG1 and CRC stem cell markers were performed for causation. AAs harboring neoplasias displayed a more robust loss of STAG1 mRNA (~50%, p<0.007) vs Caucasians with neoplasias (~25%, p=0.1). In regard to CRC stem cell markers, AAs with adenomas showed a stronger increase of LGR5 (67%, p=0.14), and ALDH1a (73%, p<0.007) vs Caucasians with neoplasias (LGR5 increased 59%, p=0.2; ALDH1a increased ~47%, p<0.05). HT29 cells transfected with STAG1 siRNA showed 30% less apoptotic response to 5-FU vs scramble vector and a marked 74% less response with oxaliplatin. CRIPSR SNP transfection in RKO showed similar effects, with a 2-fold less apoptotic response to 5-FU and >90% less response to oxaliplatin. PCR showed RKO STAG1-SNP transfected cells displayed a loss of STAG1(~40%, p<0.05) and an upregulation of LGR5 (~50%, p<0.05) and ALDH1a (~30%, p<0.05). This shows, for the first time, that STAG1 loss is implicated in colon carcinogenesis through potentiation of cancer stem cells through early carcinogenesis/initiation as well as disease progression and aggressiveness as shown through chemoresistance. Our work provides a potential mechanism in CRC, thus providing a biomarker for cancer screening and therapeutics that could mitigate the racial disparity of CRC in AAs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitochondrial function in retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells and extracellular vesicle (EV) formation/release are related through the lysosomal and exocytotic pathways that process and eliminate intracellular material, including mitochondrial fragments. We propose that RPE cells with impaired mitochondria will release EVs containing mitochondrial miRNAs that reflect the diminished capacity of mitochondria within these cells. METHODS We screened ARPE-19 cells for miRNAs that localize to the mitochondria, exhibit biological activity, and are present in EVs released by both untreated cells and cells treated with rotenone to induce mitochondrial injury. EVs were characterized by vesicle size, size distribution, presence of EV biomarkers: CD81, CD63, and syntenin-1, miRNA cargo, and number concentration of EVs released per cell. RESULTS We found that miR-494-3p was enriched in ARPE-19 mitochondria. Knockdown of miR-494-3p in ARPE-19 cells decreased ATP production and mitochondrial membrane potential in a dose-dependent manner, and decreased basal oxygen consumption rate and maximal respiratory capacity. Increased number of EVs released per cell and elevated levels of miR-494-3p in EVs released from ARPE-19 cells treated with rotenone were also measured. CONCLUSIONS ARPE-19 mitochondrial function is regulated by miR-494-3p. Elevated levels of miR-494-3p in EVs released by ARPE-19 cells indicate diminished capacity of the mitochondria within these cells. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE EV miR-494-3p is a potential biomarker for RPE mitochondrial dysfunction, which plays a central role in non-neovascular age-related macular degeneration, and may be a diagnostic biomarker for monitoring the spread of degeneration to neighboring RPE cells in the retina.
