Physical activity patterns, genetic susceptibility, and risk of hip/knee osteoarthritis: a prospective cohort study based on the UK Biobank. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2022; 30:1079-1090. [PMID: 35504554 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2022.04.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effect of physical activity on hip/knee osteoarthritis (OA) and how it varies by genetic susceptibility to OA remains inconclusive. METHODS In a cohort study of UK Biobank, 436,166 OA-free participants were recruited in 2006-2010 and followed for knee/hip OA until the end of 2020. 28 physical activity-related items were collected at baseline. Cox regression was used to estimate associations between physical activity behaviors, as well as major activity patterns (i.e., significant principal components[PCs] identified by principal component analysis), and risk of OA, adjusting for multiple confounders. We further stratified the analyses by polygenic risk score (PRS) for OA to examine the impact of genetic susceptibility to OA on the studied association. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 11.15 years, 13,227 hip and 21,119 knee OA cases were identified. 19, out of 28, studied items showed associations with increased OA risk. Compared with low adherence group(<1st tertile of PC score for each pattern), individuals with high adherence to five identified patterns were associated with increased risk of OA. The moderate adherence to "strenuous sports"(HR = 0.93, 95%CI: 0.89-0.97) and "walking for pleasure"(HR = 0.93, 95%CI: 0.89-0.98) patterns was associated with reduced OA. Similar risk patterns were obtained in the stratified analysis by PRS levels for OA. CONCLUSION High intensity of most activity patterns were associated with increased OA. However, a protective effect was suggested for moderate adherence to patterns of "strenuous sports" and "walking for pleasure" that consistent across different genetic susceptibilities, underscoring the potential benefits of moderate-intensity physical activity on OA.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the feasibility of an ultra-low volume contrast media (CM) protocol for coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA). MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 214 patients receiving coronary CTA were enrolled prospectively and divided into group A (n=107) receiving a conventional dose of CM and group B (n=107) receiving an ultra-low dose. CT values of the right coronary artery (RCA), left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left circumflex artery (LCX) were measured and radiation doses recorded. The image quality was compared between the groups. Changes in renal function indices and proteinuria before, 24, and 72 hours after coronary CTA among those with chronic kidney disease (CKD) were also assessed. RESULTS There were significant differences in CT values and radiation doses between groups A and B. In group A, the average RCA, LAD, and LCX CT values were 412.5 ± 79.2, 423.5 ± 73.7, and 422.0 ± 88.1 HU, respectively. In group B, the average RCA, LAD, and LCX CT values were 275.2 ± 16.2, 277.8 ± 16.4, and 278.9 ± 16.5 HU, respectively. The radiation dose in the ultra-low protocol recipients (118.70 ± 18.52 mGy·cm) was significantly lower than that used in conventional coronary CTA (131.75 ± 20.96 mGy·cm). The image quality of group B was comparable to that of group A, satisfying the diagnostic requirement. In patients with mild CKD, there were no significant differences in renal functions after coronary CTA. CONCLUSION An ultra-low CM protocol was established for coronary CTA, providing comparable image quality and diagnostic yields but significantly lower radiation dose compared with a conventional protocol. This new protocol might be applicable to patients with mild CKD.

Abstract
e12543 Background: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression is a predictive marker for HER2-targeted therapy in breast cancer patients. Interobserver variation in the interpretation of HER2 levels exists among pathologists, thus a method to increase the consistency of evaluation is needed. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of the artificial intelligence (AI)-based Lunit SCOPE HER2 in assisting pathologists to evaluate HER2 expression levels in breast cancer. Methods: Lunit SCOPE HER2 was developed with a 1.04 x 1010 μm2 area and 7.31 x 105 tumor cells from 1,133 HER2 immunohistochemistry stained whole-slide images (WSI) of breast cancer, annotated by 113 board-certified pathologists. The AI model was developed based on a semantic segmentation algorithm, which consists of two atrous spatial pyramid pooling blocks for tissue level classification and for tumor cell level classification. To validate the model, a total of 209 HER2 WSIs diagnosed with breast cancer were obtained from Kyung Hee University Hospital in Korea and were assigned as an external validation set. Three board-certified pathologists evaluated slide level HER2 expression (3+, 2+, 1+, and 0) twice, first without AI assistance and second, with it. The second reading was performed for WSIs where the pathologist's reading showed discrepancy with the AI model. Results: In the external validation set, all pathologists scored the same HER2 grade in 103 WSIs (49.3%), and the Fleiss kappa value was 0.512. The HER2 grade from the AI model and pathologists was the same in 151 WSIs (72.2%), and the weighted kappa value was 0.844. The pathologists re-evaluate 43, 63, and 83 WSIs, respectively. After AI assistance, all pathologists scored the same HER2 grade in 156 WSIs (74.6%), and the Fleiss kappa value increased to 0.762 (Table). Conclusions: This study demonstrates that an AI-powered HER2 analyzer can help achieve consistent HER2 expression level evaluation in breast cancer by reducing interobserver variability. Thus, the AI model can be applied as an assistance tool for pathologists in HER2 grade evaluation.[Table: see text]

Abstract
2621 Background: The IIP, defined by enriched intratumoral tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), is a potential tumor-agnostic biomarker of responsiveness to ICI therapy. Here, we validate the IIP, as assessed by Lunit SCOPE IO, an AI-powered spatial TIL analyzer that runs on routine H&E-stained whole-slide images (WSI), for clinical outcome prediction in a large, multi-center international cohort of ICI-treated patients, demonstrating its utility as a practical biomarker to guide ICI treatment planning. Methods: Lunit SCOPE IO was developed using 17,849 H&E WSI of multiple cancer types, annotated by 104 board-certified pathologists (13.5 x 109 µm2 area and 6.2 x 106 TIL). IIP+ tumors were defined as those with ≥ 20% of all 1 mm2 tumor tiles in a WSI classified as having a high intratumoral TIL density. We evaluated the correlation between IIP and ICI treatment outcomes (overall response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS), assessed by RECIST v1.1) in a real-world dataset of 1,806 patients ( > 16 primary tumor types) retrospectively collected from Stanford University Medical Center, Samsung Medical Center, Chonnam National University Hospital, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, and Northwestern University. IIP status was sub-analyzed by PD-L1 22C3 tumor proportion score (TPS, n = 798), microsatellite status, and tumor mutational burden (TMB, n = 130). Results: The IIP+ phenotype (35.2%, 636 of 1,806) was highly enriched in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (68.0%), melanoma (56.3%), renal cell carcinoma (52.9%), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC, 33.7%). The IIP+ proportion by PD-L1 TPS ( < 1% / ≥ 1%) was 21.6% and 40.7%, respectively. While 33.3% of microsatellite unstable (MSI-H) or TMB-high (≥ 10/Mb) tumors were IIP+, a substantial proportion (26.1%) of microsatellite stable (MSS), TMB-low tumors were IIP+. The ORR in IIP+ patients was significantly higher (26.0% vs. 15.8% in IIP-, p < 0.001). Median PFS for IIP+ was 5.3 months (95% CI 4.6-6.9 m), significantly longer than that for IIP- (3.1 m, 95% CI 2.8-3.6 m), with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.68 (95% CI 0.61-0.76, p < 0.001). The association held after excluding NSCLC patients (n = 909) (HR 0.69, 95% CI 0.59-0.81, p < 0.001). On subgroup analysis, IIP+ correlated significantly with prolonged PFS, regardless of ICI regimen (mono / combo therapy) or PD-L1 TPS ( < 1% / ≥ 1%). Of note, IIP+ was predictive of favorable PFS only in the MSS, TMB-low group (n = 88, HR 0.56, 95% CI 0.33-0.96), but not in the MSI-H or TMB-high groups. Conclusions: The IIP, as evaluated by Lunit SCOPE IO, may represent a practical, clinically-actionable biomarker predictive of favorable ICI treatment outcomes across diverse cancer patient populations, including those with PD-L1 negative, MSS/TMB-low tumors, in whom predictive biomarkers are urgently needed.

Abstract
The mass of the W boson, a mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of particle physics. The Higgs boson was the last missing component of the model. After observation of the Higgs boson, a measurement of the W boson mass provides a stringent test of the model. We measure the W boson mass, MW, using data corresponding to 8.8 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a 1.96 tera-electron volt center-of-mass energy with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A sample of approximately 4 million W boson candidates is used to obtain [Formula: see text], the precision of which exceeds that of all previous measurements combined (stat, statistical uncertainty; syst, systematic uncertainty; MeV, mega-electron volts; c, speed of light in a vacuum). This measurement is in significant tension with the standard model expectation.

Abstract
BackgroundLittle is known about bridging clonal heterogeneity into the resistance of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Recent reports showed that excluded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) into stroma assessed by an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered spatial TIL analyzer, Lunit SCOPE IO, was related to loss-of-heterozygosity of HLA genes which would be one of crucial resistance pathways of ICI.1 In the current study, we hypothesized that Immune-excluded phenotype called by Lunit SCOPE IO would be related to clonal heterogeneity resulted from genome-wide accidents during early carcinogenesis which may cause an improper targeting of TIL for diverse clones with multiple genomic aberrations.MethodsFor spatial TIL analysis, we applied Lunit SCOPE IO1 which automatically detects TIL and segmentizes cancer area and stroma, then it classified Immune phenotype of 1 mm2-sized grid in H&E image. Inflamed score or Immune-excluded score were defined as the proportion of Inflamed phenotype, which is high intra-tumoral TIL density, or Immune-excluded phenotype, which is exclusively high TIL density only in stroma, within a whole-slide image, respectively. We evaluated the correlation of Immune phenotype with APOBEC mutational signature by single-base substitution (SBS) signature 2 and/or SBS13,2 whole-genome doubling, and subclonal genome fraction which reflects intra-tumoral heterogeneity,3 and clusters of T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire 4 derived from previous reports of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), consists of 7,467 tumor samples from 22 cancer types.Abstract 830 Table 1Correlation between immune phenotype and clonal evolution of cancer [* Median (95% confidence interval)]ResultsIn the TCGA pan-carcinoma database, APOBEC mutational signature was significantly correlated with increased ratio of cancer stroma to cancer epithelium (median 0.866 vs 1.19, fold change +37.4%), and increased TIL density in cancer stroma (median 558 vs 764 / mm2, fold change +36.9%), but it was not correlated with intra-tumoral TIL density (median 63 vs 59 / mm2, fold change -6.3%). Interestingly, Immune-excluded score (IES) called by Lunit SCOPE IO was positively correlated with APOBEC mutational signature as well as expression levels of APOBEC1, APOBEC3A, and APOBEC3B, whole-genome doubling, and subclonal genome fraction, respectively, while Inflamed score (IS) or immune cytolytic activity (GZMA and PRF1 expressions) was negatively or not significantly correlated to those variables (table 1). TCR repertoire was expanded in the tumor samples with high IS (spearman rho = 0.279), but it was not increased in those with high IES (spearman rho = -0.0595).ConclusionsThere is a significant correlation between distinct TIL deposition in stroma, or Immune-excluded phenotype, with APOBEC-attributed clonal expansion of cancer, without proper expansion of TCR repertoire.ReferencesOck CY, Park C, Paeng K, Yoo D, Kim S, Park S, Lee SH, Mok T, Bang YJ.

Abstract
To explore the protective effects of L-carnitine on erectile function and reproductive function in rats with diabetes. A total of 60 male diabetes mellitus induced-erectile dysfunction (DMED) rats were randomly divided into three groups, 20 rats in each group. The blank group was fed normally, the control group was fed with 0.9% sodium chloride solution 5 ml/kg/day, and the experimental group was given L-carnitine 300 mg/kg/day. After six weeks, the Corpus cavernosum penis pressure (ICP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were measured. The sperm of epididymis were taken to detect the parameters of sperm. After six weeks of treatment, ICP and MAP in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group and blank group (p < 0.05), and sperm density and PR in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group and the blank group (p < 0.05). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group and blank group (p < 0.05). Malondialdehyde (MDA) in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group and blank group (p < 0.05). The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and testosterone in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group and blank group (p < 0.05). We conclude that L-carnitine can significantly improve erectile function and reproductive function in rats with diabetes and it has great potential in the treatment of systemic organ damage in DMED rats.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to elucidate the regulatory effects of microRNA-655-3p (miR-655-3p) on growth and invasiveness of trophoblasts to influence the development of preeclampsia (PE). PATIENTS AND METHODS Relative levels of miR-655-3p and PBX3 in 24 PE pregnant women and 24 healthy ones were examined. Then, the regulatory effects of miR-655-3p and PBX3 on viability and invasiveness in HTR-8/SVneo cells were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and transwell assay, respectively. Next, the expression levels of apoptosis-associated genes were determined. Finally, the interaction between miR-655-3p and PBX3 was tested by Dual-Luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS MiR-655-3p was upregulated in placental tissues of PE pregnant women than those of healthy ones. The overexpression of miR-655-3p suppressed viability and invasiveness, and induced apoptosis in HTR-8/SVneo cells. Besides, PBX3 was the target gene binding to miR-655-3p, and more importantly, the overexpression of PBX3 partially reversed the regulatory effects of miR-655-3p on viability and invasiveness in HTR-8/SVneo cells. CONCLUSIONS MiR-655-3p is involved in the development of PE by regulating biological features of trophoblasts by targeting PBX3.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most prevalent intraocular malignancy in childhood. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found as critical oncogenic drivers and tumor suppressor in RB. The aim of the present work was to investigate the impact and mechanism of XIST on RB cell autophagy and vincristine (VCR) sensitivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS The levels of XIST and miR-204-5p were assessed by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). Western blot analysis was used for the determination of related protein levels. Cell proliferation and IC50 value of VCR were detected using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay. Flow cytometry was performed to evaluate cell apoptosis. The activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9 were identified using a corresponding assay kit. The direct interaction between XIST and miR-204-5p was confirmed using Dual-Luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft model was established to observe the effect of XIST on RB in vivo. RESULTS Our data indicated that XIST was highly expressed in RB tissues and cell lines. XIST knockdown weakened the proliferation and autophagy and enhanced VCR sensitivity in RB cells. XIST acted as a molecular sponge of miR-204-5p. Moreover, the regulatory effects of XIST silencing on RB cell proliferation, autophagy and VCR sensitivity were mediated by miR-204-5p. Additionally, XIST silencing weakened tumor growth and enhanced VCR sensitivity in vivo through up-regulating miR-204-5p. CONCLUSIONS Our current study suggested that XIST silencing suppressed RB progression and promoted VCR sensitivity in vitro and in vivo at least partially by acting as a miR-204-5p sponge, highlighting a powerful therapeutic strategy for RB treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MiRNAs are important regulators in cell progression, tumor formation, and development. The poor prognosis and high incidence of osteosarcoma are difficult to treat. Therefore, studying the mechanism of OS progression is conducive to the diagnosis and treatment of OS. However, the role of miRNA in OS progression has not been fully explored. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression of miR-654-5p and SIRT6 was detected using qRT-PCR. Western blot was applied to measure the protein expression of SIRT6. Transfected cells proliferation was measured using MTT assay. Transwell was performed to assess cell migrated and invasive capacity. Animals experiment was used to verify the regulatory mechanism of miR-654-5p in OS. RESULTS In this study, we found that miR-654-3p was downregulated while SIRT6 expression was upregulated in OS tissues and cells. Meanwhile, the overexpression of miR-654-5p suppressed cell proliferation, invasion, and migration in OS cells. Otherwise, Luciferase reporter assay determined that SIRT6 was a target gene of miR-654-5p. Notably, the promotion effect of anti-miR-654-5p on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion was reversed by inhibition of SIRT6 in OS. Moreover, the promotion of miR-654-5p inhibited OS tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSIONS MiR-654-5p regulated cell progression and tumor growth by targeting SIRT6 in OS, providing a new therapeutic target for OS.
