Abstract
The Wnt ligands display varied spatiotemporal expression in the epithelium and mesenchyme in the developing tooth. Thus far, the actions of these differentially expressed Wnt ligands on tooth development are not clear. Shh expression specifies the odontogenic epithelium during initiation and is consistently restricted to the dental epithelium during tooth development. In this study, we inactivate Wntless ( Wls), the key regulator for Wnt trafficking, by Shh-Cre to investigate how the Wnt ligands produced in the dental epithelium lineage act on tooth development. We find that conditional knockout of Wls by Shh-Cre leads to defective ameloblast and odontoblast differentiation. WlsShh-Cre teeth display reduced canonical Wnt signaling activity in the inner enamel epithelium and the underlying mesenchyme at the early bell stage, as exhibited by target gene expression and BAT-gal staining. The expression of Wnt5a and Wnt10b is not changed in WlsShh-Cre teeth. By contrast, Wnt10a expression is significantly increased in response to epithelial Wls deficiency. In addition, the expression of Hedgehog signaling pathway components Shh, Gli1, and Patched1 was greatly decreased in WlsShh-Cre teeth. Epithelial Wls loss of function in Shh lineage also leads to aberrant cell proliferation in dental epithelium and mesenchyme at embryonic day 16.5; however, the cell apoptosis is unaffected. Moreover, we find that Decorin and Col1a1, the key markers for odontoblast differentiation that are downregulated in WlsShh-Cre teeth, act as direct downstream targets of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway by chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis. Additionally, Decorin and Col1a1 expression can be increased by lithium chloride (LiCl) treatment in the in vitro tooth explants. Taken together, our results suggest that the spatial expression of Wnt ligands within the dental epithelial lineage regulates the differentiation of tooth structures in later stages.

Abstract
Health policy and systems research (HPSR) is vital to guiding global institutions, funders, policymakers, activists and implementers in developing and enacting strategies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. We undertook a multi-stage participatory process to identify priority research questions relevant to improving accountability within health systems. We conducted interviews (n = 54) and focus group discussions (n = 2) with policymakers from international and national bodies (ministries of health, other government agencies and technical support institutions) across the WHO regions. Respondents were asked to reflect on challenges and current policy discussions related to health systems accountability, and to identify their pressing research needs. We also conducted an overview of reviews (n = 34) to determine the current status of knowledge on health systems accountability and to identify any gaps. We extracted research questions from the policymaker interviews and focus groups (70 questions) and from the overview of reviews (112 questions), and synthesized these into 36 overarching questions. Using the online platform Co-Digital, we invited researchers from around the world to refine and then rank the questions according to research importance. The questions that emerged amongst the top priorities focused on political factors that mediate the adoption or effectiveness of accountability initiatives, processes and incentives that facilitate the acceptability of accountability mechanisms among frontline healthcare providers, and the national governance reforms and contexts that enhance provider accountability. The process revealed different underlying conceptions of social accountability and how best to promote it, with some researchers and policymakers focusing on specific interventions and others embracing a more systems-oriented approach to understanding accountability, the multiple forms that it can take, how these interact with each other and the importance of power and underlying social relations. The findings from this exercise identify HPSR funding priorities and future areas for evidence production and policy engagement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic treatment for renal carcinoma with Mayo 0-2 level venous thrombosis. METHODS From January 2015 to February 2018, 58 renal carcinoma cases with venous thrombus underwent laparoscopic radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy in Department of Urology, Peking University Third Hospital, of which, 51 cases were male, and 7 female, aged 29-82 years. According to the Mayo grade classification, 20 cases were level 0, 20 cases were level 1, and 18 cases were level 2, with left side being 22 cases, and right side 36 cases. The patients except for those complicated with hemorrhagic diseases, cardiac and pulmonary insufficiency, or those who could not tolerate anesthesia and surgical contraindications, underwent the operation after comprehensive examinations. RESULTS The 58 cases of renal tumor with venous tumor emboli were successfully completed with the surgeries, including 50 cases of totally laparoscopic surgery, 8 cases of laparoscopy surgery from convert to open (among the patients who were converted to open surgery, 7 were complicated with grade 2 tumor thrombus and 1 with grade 1 tumor thrombus). The main reasons for converting to open surgery were huge tumors (the largest of which was about 16 cm in diameter), severe adhesion and difficulty of separation. For different patients, different surgical methods and procedures were adopted according to the tumor direction and the different grade of tumor thrombus. Radical nephrectomy combined with vena cava tumor thrombus removal was performed in 55 cases and segmental resection of vena cava in 3 cases. The operation time was 132-557 min, and blood loss was 20-3 000 mL. Post-operative pathological types: 51 cases were clear cell carcinoma, 5 cases were type 2 of papillary carcinoma, 1 case was squamous cell carcinoma, and 1 case was chromophobe cell tumor. In the study, 47 cases were followed up for 1-36 months, and 4 cases died (the survival time was 5-15 months, with an average of 10.2 months). CONCLUSION Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy is a reasonable choice for renal tumor with Mayo 0-2 level venous thrombosis. For different tumor directions and different grades of tumor thrombus, an appropriate operation plan can give the maxim benefit to the patients with skillful surgeons.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinicopathological features,treatment and prognosis of patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) and PRCC-complicated with tumor thrombus. METHODS Single center retrospective analysis of 75 patients with PRCC treated from January 2012 to October 2017 was performed. There were 55 males and 20 females at an age range of 24-82 years. Sixteen PRCC patients were complicated with tumor thrombus. All the patients were with a surgery and had clear pathological diagnosis and detailed follow-up data. The clinicopathological features, prognosis and influencing factors of the patients with PRCC and PRCC complicated with tumor thrombus were analyzed and summarized. RESULTS The average age of the 75 patients was(56.05±11.59)years,the average body mass index (BMI) was (26±3) kg/m², and the average tumor maximum diameter was (5.17±3.85) cm. There were significant differences between tumor maximum diameter larger than 7 cm and less than 7 cm (69.6% vs. 94.4%, P<0.001), lymph node metastasis and no lymph node metastasis (<38% vs. 98%, P<0.001), adrenal metastasis and no adrenal metastasis (0% vs. 95.3%, P<0.001), pulmonary metastasis and no pulmonary metastasis (0% vs.90.7%, P<0.001), complicated with and without tumor thrombus (<66.4% vs. 93.5%, P<0.001) on the effect of 3-year survival rate of the PRCC patients. In this study, there were 16 patients with type 2 PRCC complicated with tumor thrombus. There were significant differences in concomitant symptoms (62.5% vs. 22.0%, P=0.005), maximum tumor diameter (68.8% vs.13.3%, P<0.001), adrenal metastasis (18.8% vs. 0.02%, P=0.029), pulmonary metastasis (18.8% vs. 0%, P=0.008), nuclear grade (P<0.001) and pathological type (100% vs. 44.1%, P<0.001) between the PRCC patients with and without tumor thrombus. CONCLUSION There were significant differences in tumor diameter,lymph node metastasis,adrenal metastasis, pulmonary metastasis,pathological type, nuclear grade and tumor thrombus in the effect of the 3-year survival rate of PRCC patients. PRCC patients with tumor thrombus were more commonly suffered from type 2 PRCC, for whom the tumor diameter was larger,the nuclear grade was higher,and the distance metastasis happened more easily.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical and pathological features, treatment and prognosis for bladder urothelial carcinoma in relative young patients under 40 years. METHODS A retrospective study involved a total of 43 consecutive patients of bladder urothelial carcinoma, which were under 40 years old from January 2001 to December 2016. RESULTS The incidence rate of bladder urothelial carcinoma in the patients under 40 years was 2.2%, and 35 males and 8 females were included. The average age was 33 years (ranging from 23 to 40 years). At initial visit, 62.8% of the patients presented with painless gross hematuria, 9 patients were discovered by routine examination, and 7 patients experienced lower urinary tract symptoms. Solitary tumor occurred in 34 cases whereas multiple carcinomas had been discovered in 9 cases,and all the 9 multiple cases were from 31-40-year-old subgroups. All the patients received proper surgical intervention according to their own clinical stages. Post-operative pathological results showed 29 low-grade urothelial carcinoma and 14 high-grade cases which included 31 Ta cases, with 7 cases of T1, 1 case of T3, and 3 cases of T4 and one case of T1 plus Tis. The total follow-up was from 5 to 165 months, 3 cases were lost. The overall recurrence rate was 12.5% (5 cases from 40). One patient developed distal metastasis, one died of metastasis after 13 months, and the other three received secondary trans-urethral resection of bladder tumors. The average recurrence time was 39 months (ranging from 3 to 105 months). The progression rate was 5% among all the followed-up patients (2 cases from 40). The recurrence rate in multiple lesions group (33%, 3/9) was significantly higher than that (5.9%, 2/34) in solitary lesion group (P=0.000 3). CONCLUSION The incidence rate of bladder urothelial carcinoma in young patients under 40 years becomes increasingly higher over years. The major initial presentation is painless gross hematuria among these young patients, but lower urinary tract symptoms should also be noticed for young patients to rule out tumor. Postoperative tumor recurrence might be associated with multiple lesions, which is not related to the tumor size or pathological features.

Abstract
Recently, a new two-dimensional material, single- or few-layered black phosphorus (BP), has attracted considerable attention for applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and batteries due to its unique properties, including large specific surface area, anisotropy, and tunable and direct band gaps. In particular, contributions to electrochemical energy storage devices, such as lithium and sodium ion batteries and supercapacitors, have emerged. However, critical issues remain to be explored before scaled-up commercial production of BP, such as preparation, stability, and performance. Herein, we present the first review of recent progress in BP-based electrochemical energy storage device. The preparation and electrochemical properties of black phosphorus, recent advances, potential challenges, and relevant perspectives in electrochemical energy storage, and the potential of BP are discussed in this work.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the efficiency of ureteroscope and biopsy in the diagnosis of tumor grade, muscle-invasiveness and multifocality in suspected upper tract urinary carcinoma (UTUC) patients in order to find out whether it can be used in the risk stratification of UTUC patients. METHODS A retrospective study of 76 UTUC patients who underwent preoperative ureteroscope and/or biopsy and received radical nephroureterectomy in Peking University Third Hospital during January 2014 to December 2016 was undertaken. RESULTS In this study, 76 patients were included. There were 31 males (40.8%), and 45 females (59.2%). The median age was 64.5 years (31-88), and 51 patients had the symptom of hematuresis. The tumor was located in renal pelvis in 39 patients, and in ureter in 37 patients. Post-operative pathology confirmed that all the 76 patients included in this study suffered from UTUC, of whom 21 (21.6%) were of low-grade, 51 (67.1%) were of high-grade, 4 (5.3%) were undetermined, and 47 (61.9%) patients were muscle-invasive, and 27 (35.5%) were not, and 2 (2.6%) were undetermined. Among the 50 patients, in whom the grade of the tumor could be diagnosed by biopsy, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for low-grade tumor was 88.2%, 69.7%, 76.0%, 60.0% and 92.0%, respectively. Among the 27 patients, in whom the muscle-invasiveness could be diagnosed by biopsy, 5 patients were diagnosed with muscle-invasiveness, all confirmed by pathology after surgery and 22 patients were diagnosed with none muscle-invasiveness, turned out to be 50% muscle-invasive and 50% none-muscle invasive after surgery. The accuracy was 59.3%. The accuracy of ureteroscopic biopsy to diagnosis multifocality was 61.0%. On univariate analysis, biopsy grade was associated with postoperative pathology (P=0.001), while gender, age, side, body mass index (BMI), hematuresis, preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), hydronephrosis, tumor size, location, multifocality and sessile were not associated with postoperative pathology grade. Biopsy grade (P=0.02), preoperative eGFR<90 mL/(min×1.73 m2)(P=0.025) and tumor located in pelvis (P=0.049) were associated with muscle invasiveness. Gender, age, side, BMI, hematuresis, hydronephrosis, tumor size, multifocality and sessile were not significantly associated with muscle invasiveness. CONCLUSION Ureteroscope and biopsy can assist risk stratification in upper tract urothelial carcinoma patients.

Abstract
Quinocetone (QCT), an antimicrobial growth promoter, is widely used in food-producing animals. However, information about pharmacokinetics (PK) of QCT in ducks still remains unavailable up to now. In this study, QCT and its major metabolites (1-desoxyquinocetone, di-desoxyquinocetone and 3-methyl-quinoxaline-2-carboxylic) in ducks were studied using a simple and sensitive UHPLC-MS/MS assay. Twenty ducks were divided into two groups. (n = 10/group). One group received QCT by oral administration at dose of 40 mg/kg while another group received QCT intravenously at 10 mg/kg. Plasma samples were collected at various time points from 0 to 96 hr. QCT and its major metabolites in duck plasma samples were extracted by 1 ml acetonitrile and detected by UHPLC-MS/MS, with the gradient mobile phase that consisted of 0.1% formic acid in water (A) and acetonitrile (B). A noncompartment analysis was used to calculate the PK parameters. The results showed that following oral dosing, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax ) of QCT was 32.14 ng/ml and the area under the curve (AUCINF_obs) was 233.63 (h ng)/ ml. Following intravenous dosing, the Cmax , AUCINF_obs and Vss_obs were 96.70 ng/ml, 152.34 (h ng)/ ml and 807.00 L/kg, respectively. These data indicated that the QCT was less absorbed in vivo following oral administration, with low bioavailability (38.43%). QCT and its major metabolites such as 1-desoxyquinocetone and 3-methyl-quinoxaline-2-carboxylic were detected at individual time points in individual ducks, while the di-desoxyquinocetone was not detected in all time points in all ducks. This study enriches basic scientific data about pharmacokinetics of QCT in ducks after oral and intravenous administration and will be beneficial for clinical application in ducks.

CYP4A in tumor-associated macrophages promotes pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. Oncogene 2017; 36:5045-5057.

Abstract
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an essential role in metastasis. However, what enables TAMs to have a superior capacity to establish pre-metastatic microenvironment in distant organs is unclear. Here we have begun to uncover the effects of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 4A in TAMs on lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. CYP4A+ TAM infiltration was positively associated with metastasis, pre-metastatic niche formation and poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. The pharmacological inhibition of CYP4A reduced lung pre-metastatic niche formation (evidenced by a decrease in vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 positive (VEGFR1+) myeloid cell recruitment and pro-metastatic protein expression) and metastatic burden, accompanied with TAM polarization away from the M2 phenotype in spontaneous metastasis models of 4T1 breast cancer and B16F10 melanoma. Co-implantation of 4T1 cells with CYP4A10high macrophages promoted lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. Depletion of TAMs disrupted lung pre-metastatic niches and thereby prevented metastasis. Treatment with the CM from CYP4A10high M2 macrophages (M2) increased pre-metastatic niche formation and metastatic burden in the lungs, whereas CYP4A inhibition attenuated these effects. In vitro TAM polarization away from the M2 phenotype induced by CYP4A inhibition decreased VEGFR1+ myeloid cell migration and fibronectin expression, accompanied with downregulation of STAT3 signaling. Conversely, overexpression of CYP4A or exogenous addition of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid promoted M2 polarization and cytokine production of macrophages and thereby enhanced migration of VEGFR1+ myeloid cells, which were reversed by siRNA or pharmacological inhibition of STAT3. Importantly, a combined blocking M2 macrophage-derived factors TGF-β, VEGF and SDF-1 abolished VEGFR1+ myeloid cell migration and fibroblast activation induced by CYP4A. In summary, CYP4A in TAMs is crucial for lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis, and may serve as a potential therapeutic target in human cancer.
