Abstract
BackgroundProlonged use of GC may cause irreversible organ damage, leading to impaired quality of life and even increased mortality. However, many physicians are worried about severe flares after GC withdrawal in daily practice.ObjectivesTo assess the risk of flare in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients after low dose glucocorticoids (GC) discontinuation and evaluate the risk factors of flare.MethodsSLE patients who ever discontinued GC were identified from PKUFHS cohort. The disease flare profile after GC discontinuation were analyzed. Flare rate was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. COX regression was used to determine the effect of variables on SLE flare. A prognostic nomogram using Cox proportional hazards regression modeling were developed.Results132 SLE patients were eligible for the final analysis. They were followed up for a median (IQR) period of 21.8 (9.01, 36.7) months. The cumulative probability of flare after GC discontinuation was 8.3 % at 6 months, 16.8% at year 1 and 27.5% at year 2 (Figure 1A). In multivariate COX analysis, hypocomplementemia and serologically active clinically quiescent (SACQ) were independent risk factors of flare [HR 2.53, 95% CI (1.32, 4.88); HR 3.17, 95% CI (1.44, 6.97), respectively]. Age ≥ 40y at GC withdrawal and hydroxychloroquine usage were independent protective factors of flare [HR 0.53, 95% CI (0.29, 0.99); HR 0.32, 95% CI (0.17, 0.62), respectively] (Table 1). The protective effect of hydroxychloroquine was dosage related. From the prospective of different tapering strategies embodied as duration from prednisone 5mg/d to complete discontinuation, slower tapering strategy (12-24 months) significantly reduced the risk of flare compared to faster tapering strategy (< 3 months) [HR 0.30, 95% CI (0.11, 0.82), p=0.019]. The prognostic nomogram including aforementioned factors effectively predicted 1- and 2-year probability of flare-free (Figure 1B).Table 1.Predictors of flare by univariate and multivariate COX analysis.UnivariatepMultivariatepMultivariatepModel 1Model 2age≥40y at GC withdrawal0.59 (0.33,1.07)0.0840.53 (0.29, 0.99)0.0490.63 (0.33, 1.18)0.147Age at onset ≥18y2.03 (0.62, 6.66)0.2442.75 (0.77, 9.85)0.1212.88 (0.81, 10.2)0.103Remission duration≥60 months since the last flare0.66 (0.35, 1.27)0.2170.81 (0.41, 1.57)0.5260.73 (0.38, 1.41)0.346history of thrombocytopenia1.73 (0.94, 3.18)0.0771.36 (0.70, 2.65)0.3591.45 (0.74, 2.83)0.278history of lupus nephritis0.86 (0.47, 1.55)0.610////Hypocomplementemia1.97 (1.06, 3.66)0.0312.53 (1.32, 4.88)0.005//anti-dsDNA positive1.25 (0.70, 2.23)0.456////SACQ (both)2.91 (1.38, 6.15)0.005//3.17 (1.44, 6.97)0.004SACQ (or)1.29 (0.73, 2.30)0.380////Hydroxychloroquine or not0.29 (0.16, 0.53)<0.0010.29 (0.15, 0.56)<0.0010.32 (0.17, 0.62)0.001Immunosuppressant or not0.77 (0.40, 1.48)0.426////There was strong collinearity between hypocomplementemia and SACQ, so the two parameters were separated into two models.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
Immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) therapy has revolutionized the outcome of certain cancers such as malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). However, patient responsiveness to this treatment remains unpredictable. Recently, a role for the gut microbiota composition has emerged for patients to generate a robust immune response against their tumors, following immunotherapy. Here, we studied the impact of Prembion®, a pre-biotic and modulator of the gut microbiota, on tumor control and lymphocyte infiltration in a murine MPM model treated by ICI.
Methods
Prembion® (diluted into drinking water) was administrated to BALBc mice for 14 days. These animals were then inoculated orthotopically with a syngeneic MPM cell line (AB12-luc cells injected in the pleura) and followed by bioluminescence imaging. We determined the tumor growth and mouse survival in different groups: untreated control, Prembion®, IgG control, anti-PDL-1, anti-CTLA4, Prembion®+anti-PDL-1 and Prembion®+anti-CTLA4. A correlation between tumor response/animal survival and MPM infiltration with CD8+ lymphocytes was also performed by immunohistochemistry.
Results
Prembion® was well tolerated and did not affect animal weight or activity. Interestingly, Prembion® was as effective as anti-PDL1 and anti-CTLA4 monotherapy on tumor control, prolonging survival by 4.0 ± 1.1 days compared to controls (p<0.05). Moreover Prembion® potentiated anti-CTLA4 efficacy with a significant improvement in mouse survival of the Prembion®+anti-CTLA4 compared to controls (3.6 ± 1.1 days, p<0.05). Additionally, this finding correlated with enhanced MPM infiltration by CD8+ lymphocytes compared to controls (p<0.05).
Conclusion
Prembion® positively regulated the adaptive immune response against MPM and helped to improve the impact of anti-CTLA4 ICI on MPM. Further work focusing on the gut microbiome changes induced by Prembion® are ongoing to better understand the mechanisms involved.

Abstract
BackgroundLupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) attainment has been reported to be associated with reduced damage accrual, flare, and mortality, as well as improved quality of life, in cohorts of SLE patients with established disease. Whether these associations are present in recent-onset disease is less well known.ObjectivesTo evaluate the associations of LLDAS attainment with outcomes in patients with recent onset SLE.MethodsData from a 13-country longitudinal SLE cohort (ACR/SLICC criteria) were collected prospectively between 2013 and 2020 using standard templates. Organ damage and flare were captured using SLICC Damage Index and SELENA-SLEDAI Flare Index, respectively. LLDAS was defined as Golder et al., 2019 [1]. An inception cohort was defined based on duration since SLE diagnosis<1 year at enrolment. Patient characteristics between inception and non-inception cohorts were compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum (continuous variables) or Pearson’s Chi-squared tests (categorical variables). Survival analyses were performed to examine the association between LLDAS attainment and damage accrual and flare.ResultsThe study cohort included 4,106 patients of whom 680 (16%) were recruited within 1 year of SLE diagnosis (inception cohort). Compared to the non-inception cohort, inception cohort patients were significantly younger, had higher disease activity (SLEDAI-2K and physician global assessment), used more glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants but had less organ damage at enrolment and only 88 (13.6%) patients accrued damage during a median 2.2 years follow-up (Table 1).Table 1.Non-inception cohortInception cohortp-valuen=3426n=680Age at enrolment (years), median [IQR]40 [31, 51]33 [25, 44]<0.001Age at diagnosis (years), median [IQR]28 [21, 38]33 [25, 43]<0.001SLE duration at enrolment (years), median [IQR]10 [5, 16]1 [0, 1]<0.001Study duration (years), median [IQR]2.5 [1.0, 5.4]2.2 [0.9, 3.7]<0.001Females, n (%)3155 (92.1%)623 (91.6%)0.68Asian ethnicity, n (%)3037 (89.1%)595 (88.1%)0.49Prednisolone (PNL) use - ever, n (%)2865 (83.6%)620 (91.2%)<0.001Time adjusted mean (TAM)-PNL, median [IQR]5.0 [2.2, 8.6]6.2 [3.2, 10.3]<0.001Cumulative PNL (g), median [IQR]3.4 [0.5, 9.7]3.8 [1.1, 8.5]0.26Anti-Malarial use - ever, n (%)2669 (77.9%)569 (83.7%)<0.001Immunosupressant use -ever, n (%)2367 (69.1%)521 (76.6%)<0.001AMS (TAM-SLEDAI-2K), median [IQR]2.8 [1.2, 4.6]3.1 [1.6, 5.0]0.002TAM-PGA, median [IQR]0.4 [0.2, 0.7]0.4 [0.3, 0.8]<0.001Mild/moderate/severe flare ever, n (%)1789 (52.2%)391 (57.5%)0.012Organ damage accrual, n (%)629 (20.8%)88 (13.6%)<0.001LLDAS at baseline, n (%)1730 (50.5%)195 (28.7%)<0.001LLDAS-ever (at least once), n (%)2637 (78.2%)492 (73.9%)0.014≥50% time in LLDAS (LLDAS-5), n (%)1612 (50.6%)256 (41.1%)<0.001Significantly fewer inception cohort patients were in LLDAS at enrolment than the non-inception cohort (29% vs. 51%, p<0.001). However, 74% of inception and 78% of non-inception cohort patients achieved LLDAS at least once during follow-up. Limiting analysis only to patients not in LLDAS at enrolment, time to first LLDAS attainment was assessed: inception cohort patients were 60% more likely to attain their first LLDAS (HR = 1.60 (95%CI: 1.40, 1.82), p<0.001) than non-inception cohort patients. LLDAS attainment was significantly protective against flare in the inception (HR, 95% CI) and non-inception (HR, 95% CI) cohorts. Trends towards protection against damage accrual in association with LLDAS in the inception cohort were not significant.ConclusionLLDAS attainment is protective from flare in recent onset SLE. Significant protection from damage accrual was not observed, due to low rates of damage accrual in the first years after SLE diagnosis.References[1]Golder, V., et al., Lupus low disease activity state as a treatment endpoint for systemic lupus erythematosus: a prospective validation study.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a deadly disease with limited treatment options. Recently, dual immune checkpoint inhibition therapy (ICI) showed improved patient survival. However, only a fraction of patients were responsive to immunotherapy. One potential mechanism of MPM resistance to ICIs could be their endothelial anergy that hampers leukocyte trafficking to the tumor bulk. Here, we hypothesized that vascular-targeted low dose photodynamic therapy (L-PDT), treatment of MPM could relieve tumor endothelial anergy and improve immunotherapy efficacy.
Methods
Using an orthotopic syngeneic MPM murine model (AB12 cells injected in the pleura of BALB/c mice), we determined the impact of L-PDT on the endothelial expression of E-Selectin, a key molecule involved in leukocyte diapedesis by immunohistochemistry. Furthermore, to confirm the role of E-selectin, we determined the extravasation of effector T cells (CD8+/CD4+) by immunostaining in L-PDT treated tumors in the presence or absence of an E-selectin blocking antibody. Finally, we assessed tumor growth/survival of our MPM murine model treated with L-PDT alone or combined to ICIs.
Results
L-PDT pre-treatment enhanced MPM endothelial E-Selectin expression in vivo. The latter was associated with increased CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocyte infiltration of MPM following L-PDT which did not occur after E-Selectin blockade. Also, L-PDT pre-treatment of MPM influenced favorably tumor control, mouse survival and the impact of ICIs compared to controls.
Conclusion
L-PDT pre-treatment relieves endothelial anergy in MPM which improves antitumor immunity and response to ICI. This approach could constitute a promising pre-treatment option, in combination with ICIs, for the management of this deadly disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNA 140 (miR-140) is a chondrocyte-specific endogenous gene regulator implicated in osteoarthritis (OA). As mechanical injury is a primary aetiological factor in OA, we investigated miR-140-dependent mechanosensitive gene regulation using a novel CRISPR-Cas9 methodology in primary human chondrocytes. METHOD Primary (passage 1/2) human OA chondrocytes were isolated from arthroplasty samples (six donors) and transfected with ribonuclear protein complexes or plasmids using single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) targeting miR-140, in combination with Cas9 endonuclease. Combinations of sgRNAs and single/double transfections were tested. Gene editing was measured by T7 endonuclease 1 (T7E1) assay. miRNA levels were confirmed by qPCR in chondrocytes and in wild type murine femoral head cartilage after acute injury. Predicted close match off-targets were examined. Mechanosensitive miR-140 target validation was assessed in 42 injury-associated genes using TaqMan Microfluidic cards in targeted and donor-matched control chondrocytes. Identified targets were examined in RNAseq data from costal chondrocytes from miR-140-/- mice. RESULTS High efficiency gene editing of miR-140 (90-98%) was obtained when two sgRNAs were combined with double RNP-mediated CRISPR-Cas9 transfection. miR-140 levels fell rapidly after femoral cartilage injury. Of the top eight miR-140 gene targets identified (P < 0.01), we validated three previously identified ones (septin 2, bone morphogenetic protein 2 and fibroblast growth factor 2). Novel targets included Agrin, a newly recognised pro-regenerative cartilage agent, and proteins associated with retinoic acid signalling and the primary cilium. CONCLUSION We describe a highly efficient CRISPR-Cas9-mediated strategy for gene editing in primary human chondrocytes and identify several novel mechanosensitive miR-140 targets of disease relevance.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of oxaliplatin-induced chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathic pain (CIPNP). Methods: A total of 16 male Sprague-Dawley rats of specific pathogen-free grade were randomly divided into two groups: oxaliplatin experimental group (2.4 mg/kg oxaliplatin dissolved in 5.0% glucose solution, n=8) and control group (equal volume 5% glucose solution, n=8). The rat model of CIPNP was established by continuous administration with oxaliplatin. In addition, mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia and cold hyperalgesia were measured and compared between the two groups. To explore the molecular mechanism of oxaliplatin-induced CIPNP, the gene expression of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) from the rat model of CIPNP was analyzed using RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Results: Mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity was exhibited on day 7 and a stronger hypersensitivity was observed on day 14. A total of 20 152 genes were quantified by RNA-Seq, and 379 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained with absolute fold change cut-offs ≥ 2 and P value<0.05. There were 7 genes (Npy, Car3, Cdkn1a, Nts, Prc1, Ms4a7 and Ecel1) that were involved in peripheral nerve injury-related neuropathic pain. Gene ontology (GO) functional enrichment analyses indicated that the DEGs induced by oxaliplatin were involved in oxygen transport, cell division, intermediate, centromere, oxygen transporter activity, oxygen binding. Moreover, the result of Kyoto Encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) analyses highlighted that the DEGs induced by oxaliplatin were involved in malaria, African trypanosomiasis, primary immunodeficiency, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway. Conclusion: Oxaliplatin induces CIPNP via pain-related genes and signaling pathways.

Objective: To explore the role of the enhanced milieu teaching (EMT) model in early intervention of children with language developmental delay (LDD) in outpatient child healthcare clinic. Methods: Case-control study design was adopted. Twenty-eight children aged 2.5 to 4.0 years who were diagnosed with LDD from June 2019 to June 2020 at the Division of Child Healthcare, Department of Pediatrics, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology were recruited as the intervention group, and participated in one-on-one EMT model language rehabilitation sessions for 3 months (12 sessions). Another 27 children with LDD who attended the Division of Child Healthcare around the same period of time were recruited as control group, all of whom did not attend any types of language intervention in the subsequent three months. Both groups were followed up three months later. Gesell developmental scale (GDS) and diagnostic receptive and expressive assessment of Mandarin-comprehensive (DREAM-C) standardized language test were used to evaluate and compare children's development level at the first and follow-up visit, with the treatment effect of the EMT model being evaluated with independent sample t-test. Results: The language development quotient of GDS of the intervention group (22 boys and 6 girls) at the follow-up visit was significantly higher than that of at the first visit (64±21 vs. 52±17,t=4.960, P<0.01). The Dream-C test scores of total language (89±16 vs. 77±14, t=5.061, P<0.01), receptive language (90±16 vs. 77±15, t=5.301, P<0.01), semantics (93±20 vs. 79±19, t=5.06, P<0.01), and syntax after training (84±14 vs. 76±11, t=3.209, P<0.01) were significantly higher than those at the first visit. In the control group (19 boys and 8 girls), the only improvement was found in the Dream-C semantics score (82±26 vs. 71±18, t=2.330, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in any domains in GDS at the first and follow-up visit (all P>0.05). Conclusions: Early language rehabilitation training based on the EMT model has a significant effect on all domains of language development for children with LDD. Therefore, EMT model is a language intervention model compatible in the child healthcare outpatient clinic settings.

Abstract
Objective: To study the characteristics and risk factors of psychological and behavioral problems of children and adolescents of different ages and genders in long-term home-schooling during the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic. Further, to provide scientific basis for more targeted psychological intervention and coping strategies in the future. Methods: A cross-sectional survey using an online questionnaire was conducted on students aged 6-16 years old in five representative cities of North (Beijing), East (Shanghai), West (Chongqing), South (Guangzhou) and Middle (Wuhan) in China. In this study, the social behavior and psychological abnormalities which was defined as the positive of any dimension were investigated in multiple dimensions during long-term home-schooling. The influencing factors of psycho-behavioral problems were analyzed by Logistic regression, and the confounding factors were corrected with graded multivariable adjustment. Results: A total of 6 906 valid questionnaires were collected including 3 592 boys and 3 314 girls, of whom 3 626 were children (6-11 years old) and 3 280 were adolescents (12-16 years old). The positive detection rate of psychosocial-behavioral problems were 13.0% (900/6 906) totally, 9.6% (344/3 592) in boys and 16.8% (556/3 314) in girls respectively, and 7.3%(142/1 946) in boys aged 6-11, 14.0%(235/1 680) in girls aged 6-11, 12.3%(202/1 646) in boys aged 12-16, 19.6%(321/1 634) in girls aged 12-16 respectively. There were significant differences between the psychological problems group and the non-psychological problems group in gender, parent-offspring conflict, number of close friends, family income change, sedentary time, homework time, screen exposure time, physical activity, dietary problems (χ²=78.851, 285.264, 52.839, 26.284, 22.778, 11.024, 10.688, 36.814, 70.982, all P<0.01). The most common symptoms in boys aged 6-11 years were compulsive activity, schizoid and depression, in girls aged 6-11 years were schizoid/compulsive activity, hyperactivity and social withdrawal, in boys aged 12-16 years were hyperactivity, compulsive activity and aggressive behavior, and in girls aged 12-16 years were schizoid, anxiety/compulsive activity and depression/withdrawal, respectively. After graded multivariable adjustment, besides the common risk factors, homework time and online study time were the risk factors of 6-11 years old groups [boys OR(95%CI): 1.750 (1.32-2.32), 1.214(1.00-1.47), girls: 1.579(1.25-1.99), 1.222(1.05-1.42), all P<0.05], videogames time were the risk factors of 12-16 years old groups [ boys: 2.237 (1.60-3.13), girls: 1.272 (1.00-1.61), all P<0.05]. Conclusions: Some children and adolescents may have psychological and behavioral problems during long-term home-schooling. The psychological and behavioral manifestations differed in age and gender subgroups, which deserve special attention in each subgroups. Schools, families and specialists should actively provide precise psychological support and comprehensive intervention strategies according to special features and risk factors.

Abstract
The interaction of intense femtosecond x-ray pulses with molecules sensitively depends on the interplay between multiple photoabsorptions, Auger decay, charge rearrangement, and nuclear motion. Here, we report on a combined experimental and theoretical study of the ionization and fragmentation of iodomethane (CH_{3}I) by ultraintense (∼10^{19} W/cm^{2}) x-ray pulses at 8.3 keV, demonstrating how these dynamics depend on the x-ray pulse energy and duration. We show that the timing of multiple ionization steps leading to a particular reaction product and, thus, the product's final kinetic energy, is determined by the pulse duration rather than the pulse energy or intensity. While the overall degree of ionization is mainly defined by the pulse energy, our measurement reveals that the yield of the fragments with the highest charge states is enhanced for short pulse durations, in contrast to earlier observations for atoms and small molecules in the soft x-ray domain. We attribute this effect to a decreased charge transfer efficiency at larger internuclear separations, which are reached during longer pulses.

Abstract
Background:The recent prospectively validated definition of the lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) allows characterisation of patients not achieving a treatment goal, providing impetus for an analysis of unmet needs in SLE using formal definitions. Other recently described definitions of high disease burden include disease activity over time, high disease activity status (HDAS) episodes, and the combination of high disease activity, serological activity and glucocorticoid (GC) use (HDAS+SA+GC).Objectives:To determine the prevalence of formal categories of unmet need, and the association of these with adverse outcomes, in SLE.Methods:Data from a 13-country longitudinal SLE cohort (ACR/SLICC criteria) were collected between 2013 and 19 using standard templates. Unmet need was defined as (i) patients never attaining LLDAS defined as in Golder et al., 2019 [1], (ii) having persistently active disease (time adjusted mean SLEDAI-2K (AMS) > 4), (iii) ever exhibiting high disease activity status (HDAS; SLEDAI-2K ≥10[2]), or (iv) ever exhibiting all of SLEDAI≥10, serological activity, and glucocorticoid use (HDAS+SA+GC)[3]. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed using SF36 (v2) surveys and damage accrual using SLE Damage Index (SDI).Results:3,384 SLE patients were followed for 30,313 visits over median [IQR] 2.4 [0.4, 4.3] years. 53% of all visits were not in LLDAS; 813 patients (24%) never achieved LLDAS during observation. Median AMS was 3.0 [1.4, 4.9] and 34% of patients had AMS > 4 throughout the study. 25% of patients had at least one episode of HDAS, representing 8% of visits. 702 patients (21%) had at least one episode of HDAS+SA+GC, representing 8% of visits. Each of never-LLDAS, AMS>4, ever-HDAS, and ever-HDAS+SA+GC were associated with significantly greater number of physician visits, higher mean glucocorticoid dose, lower HRQoL and higher mortality. 31%, 58% and 83% of never-LLDAS, AMS>4, and ever-HDAS patients respectively were also HDAS+SA+GC on at least one occasion.Conclusion:Data from a multinational longitudinal SLE cohort indicate that unmet need, defined by LLDAS-never, AMS>4, HDAS, or HDAS+SA+GC, is prevalent in SLE, and that these definitions are associated with poor outcomes.References:[1]Golder, V., et al., Lupus low disease activity state as a treatment endpoint for systemic lupus erythematosus: a prospective validation study.

Abstract
Background:Treat-to-target in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been proposed for 7 years and several recommendations were developed [1]. In these recommendations, prevention of flares should be a realistic target. Meanwhile, ‘remission’ or ‘low disease activity’ was recommended as the treatment target and minimizing glucocorticoids (GC) dose or withdrawal if possible was suggested in the maintenance treatment. However, would target therapy and GC tapering/withdrawal influence disease flare?Objectives:To investigate the frequency and determinants of disease flare, especially the influence of target therapy as well as GC tapering on flare in Chinese lupus patients.Methods:The baseline and follow-up data of all consecutive patients in a prospective longitudinal lupus cohort from January 2017 to June 2020 were collected. The lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) was defined as in Golder et al., 2019[2]. The criteria for remission were from DORIS definitions [3]. Flare was assessed using the SELENA-SLEDAI flare index [4].Results:We enrolled 185 patients with disease duration at recruitment of 2.3 (0.8–7.7) years. During the 26.2 (12.5-34.5) months of follow-up, 73 (39.5%) patients experienced 95 flares, including 70 mild/moderate and 25 severe flares. The incidence of flare per patient-year was 0.27. Kaplan-Meier analyses showed that compared with those who never achieved LLDAS or DORIS, the patients who achieved the target at least once had a higher flare free survival rate; meanwhile, the patients with prednisone withdrawn had significantly lower flare free rate compared with those with small dose of GC maintained (≤7.5mg/d) (Figure 1A), but among the patients with different prednisone maintain doses (7.5~5mg, 5~2.5mg, and ≤2.5mg) there was not significant difference (Figure 1B). Cox regression analysis showed that younger age at disease onset and lower Complement 3 (C3) level at recruitment were independent risk factors for flare and achieving LLDAS or DORIS ≥50% of visits was independent protective factor (Table 1).Conclusion:In this Chinese prospective SLE cohort, age at disease onset, C3 level at recruitment and therapeutic target achieving influenced disease flare independently and significantly. GC tapering in appropriate patients and with appropriate pace did not increase the flare rate, but prednisone withdrawal may induce more disease exacerbation, which needs to be confirmed by large prospective studies.References:[1]Van Vollenhoven R F, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a deadly disease with dismal prognosis. Prior studies combining surgery with intrapleural hyperthermic chemotherapy (IPHC) have shown improved survivals in selected patients with MPM. However, the mechanisms by which IPHC acts on MPM and its microenvironment remains unknown. Here we focus on tumor endothelial adhesion molecule expression patterns.
Methods
First, we determined the impact of IPHC on MPM tumor and vascular compartments in vitro using a novel bioincubater for hyperthermic cell culture. The cytotoxicity of normo (37 °C) / hyperthermic (42 °C for 60 minutes) cisplatin/carboplatin therapies were evaluated on four MPM (MSTO211H, H-Meso, AE17 and AB12) and one endothelial (EC-RF24) cell lines at a minimum of 24 hours using a presto-blue assay. Second, we treated endothelial cells with IPHC (60 min, 42 °C at optimized cytotoxic concentrations) and determined its impact on pro-immunogenic adhesion molecule (E-selectin, VE-cadherin, VCAM and Connexin-43) expression at 24 hours by Western blot.
Results
Tumor and endothelial cell viability decreased with increasing doses of both chemotherapeutics but was not affected by hyperthermia (IC50 with or without hyperthermia of each cell line at 24 hours reported in Figure 1A). Interestingly, endothelial cell line IC50 was much higher than that of MPM tumor cells for both chemotherapeutics (Figure 1A). Pro-immunogenic adhesion molecule E-Selectin was increased at 24 hours by IPHC with both chemotherapeutics while VE-Cadherin, VCAM and Connexin-43 were not affected (Figure 1B).
Conclusion
Hyperthermia adds no cytotoxicity to intrapleural chemotherapy. However, IPHC favors pro-immunogenic endothelial E-selectin expression. The latter could help induce patient immunity against their MPM and improve survival. Confirmation of these findings in vivo is mandatory.

Abstract
A supersonic beam source for SrF and BaF molecules is constructed by combining the expansion of carrier gas (a mixture of 2% SF6 and 98% argon) from an Even-Lavie valve with laser ablation of a barium/strontium metal target at a repetition rate of 10 Hz. Molecular beams with a narrow translational velocity spread are produced at relative values of Δv/v = 0.053(11) and 0.054(9) for SrF and BaF, respectively. The relative velocity spread of the beams produced in our source is lower in comparison with the results from other metal fluoride beams produced in supersonic laser ablation sources. The rotational temperature of BaF is measured to be 3.5 K. The source produces 6 × 108 and 107 molecules per steradian per pulse in the X2Σ+ (ν = 0, N = 1) state of BaF and SrF molecules, respectively, a state amenable to Stark deceleration and laser cooling.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the feasibility of in vitro inflammatory wound microenvironment simulated by using inflammatory wound tissue homogenate of mice. Methods: (1) Ten eight-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were collected and full-thickness skin tissue with diameter of 1.0 cm on both sides of the midline of the back was taken with a perforator to make the normal skin tissue homogenate supernatant. At 48 h after the full-thickness skin defect wound was established, the wound tissue within 2 mm from the wound edge was taken to make inflammatory wound tissue homogenate supernatant. Two kinds of tissue homogenate supernatant were taken to adjust the total protein concentration to 1 mg/mL, and the tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) content was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The number of sample was 6. (2) The primary passage of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) were collected and cultured to the 3rd passage with the normal exosomes being extracted from the hUCMSCs after cultured for 48 h. Another batch of hUCMSCs in the 3rd passage was collected and stimulated with inflammatory wound tissue homogenate supernatant of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL total protein and normal skin tissue homogenate supernatant of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL total protein, respectively. After cultured for 48 h, the exosomes stimulated with normal protein of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL and exosomes stimulated with inflammatory protein of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL were extracted. Normal exosomes, exosomes stimulated with 30 μg/mL normal protein, and exosomes stimulated with 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein were collected, the morphology was observed by transmission electron microscope, the particle size was detected by nanoparticle tracking analyzer, and the expressions of CD9 and CD63 were detected by Western blotting. (3) Twenty one-day-old C57BL/6 mice were taken to isolate the primary passage of fibroblasts (Fbs) and the 3rd passage of Fbs, whose morphology was observed under the inverted phase contrast microscope. The Fbs of 3rd passage were collected to observe the expression of vimentin by cell crawling method combined with immunofluorescence method at culture hour (CH) 2. (4) The Fbs of 3rd passage were divided into control group, normal exosome group, 30, 50, 100 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group, and 30, 50, 100 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group according to the random number table, with 4 wells in each group. Cells in control group received no treatment, and cells in the other 7 groups were respectively added with normal exosomes, exosomes stimulated with normal protein of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL, and exosomes stimulated with inflammatory protein of 30, 50, and 100 μg/mL prepared in experiment (2). The final mass concentration of exosomes was adjusted to 10 μg/mL. The cell viability was detected by cell count kit 8 at CH 48. (5) Two batches of Fbs in the 3rd passage were divided and treated as those in experiment (4), with 4 wells in each group, and the final mass concentration of exosomes was adjusted to 1 and 10 μg/mL, respectively. The cell mobility was detected by cell scratch test at CH 6, 12, and 24. (6) Two batches of the Fbs of 3rd passage were collected, divided, and treated as those in experiment (4) except with no control group, with 3 wells in each group, and the final mass concentration of exosomes was respectively adjusted to 1 and 10 μg/mL. The mRNA expression levels of transforming growth factor β(1) (TGF-β(1)), TGF-β(3), and α smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction at CH 48. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for repeated measurement, one-way analysis of variance, and Bonferroni method. Results: (1) The content of TNF-α in inflammatory wound tissue homogenate supernatant of mice was (116±3) pg/mL, significantly higher than (97±5) pg/mL in normal skin tissue homogenate supernatant at post injury hour 48 (t=3.306, P<0.05). (2) Normal exosomes, exosomes stimulated with 30 μg/mL normal protein, and exosomes stimulated with 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein of hUCMSCs showed the typical saucer-like shape. The particle sizes of the three exosomes of hUCMSCs were 30-150 nm, which were all within the normal particle size range of exosome. Three exosomes of hUCMSCs positively expressed CD9 and CD63. (3) The primary passage of cells were clearly defined and showed protruding spindle shape, irregular polygon shape, or slender strip shape. The morphology of the 3rd and the primary passage of cells is similar. At CH 2, vimentin in cells was positively expressed, and the cells were identified as Fbs. (4) At CH 48, the cell viability was (137.4±2.8)% in 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group, obviously higher than 100%, (107.5±2.4)%, (113.3±3.2)%, (104.0±2.0)%, and (101.9±1.5)% in control group, normal exosome group, 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome groups, respectively (P<0.01), and cell viability in 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group was obviously higher than that in control group, normal exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome groups [(103.4±2.2)% and (102.5±1.4)%], respectively (P<0.01). (5) At CH 6, 12, and 24, the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group was significantly higher than that in control group, normal exosome group, 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome groups, respectively, when the final mass concentrations of exosome was 1 μg/mL (P<0.05) . At CH 12, the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group was obviously higher than that in control group, normal exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome groups, respectively, when the final mass concentration of exosome was 1 μg/mL (P<0.05). At CH 6, the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group was significantly higher than that in control group and normal exosome group (P<0.05), and the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group was significantly higher than that in 50 and 100 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome groups, respectively, when the final mass concentration of exosome was 10 μg/mL (P<0.05). At CH 12 and 24, the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group was significantly higher than that in control group, normal exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome groups (P<0.05), and the mobility rate of cells in 30 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group was significantly higher than that in control group, normal exosome group, and 50 and 100 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome groups, respectively, when the final mass concentration of exosome was 10 μg/mL (P<0.05). (6) There were no statistically significant differences in mRNA expression levels of TGF-β(1), TGF-β(3), and α-SMA of cells among the 7 groups at CH 48 when the final mass concentration of exosome was 1 μg/mL (F=1.123, 1.537, 1.653, P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in mRNA expression levels of TGF-β(1) and α-SMA of cells among the 7 groups at CH 48 when the final mass concentration of exosome was 10 μg/mL (F=1.487, 1.308, P>0.05), and mRNA expression level of TGF-β(3) of cells in 50 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome group at CH 48 was significantly higher than that in normal exosome group, 50 μg/mL normal protein stimulating exosome group, and 30 and 100 μg/mL inflammatory protein stimulating exosome groups when the final mass concentration of exosome was 10 μg/mL (P<0.05). Conclusions: The pretreatment with inflammatory wound tissue homogenate supernatant of mice has no significant effect on the total protein of hUCMSCs exosomes. The hUCMSCs exosomes stimulated by low concentration inflammatory wound tissue homogenate supernatant can significantly promote the proliferation and migration ability of Fbs. The content of inflammatory mediators in the wound tissue homogenate supernatant during the inflammatory phase is extremely low, which may be the reason that the anti-inflammation and tissue repair paracrine effects of mesenchymal stem cell cannot be effectively started.
