Abstract
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) can be endogenously generated from sulfur-containing amino acids in animals and humans. Increasing evidence shows that endogenous SO2 may act as a gaseous molecule to participate in many physiological and pathological processes. However, the role of SO2 and its derivatives in the central nervous system remains poorly understood. The present study explored the protective effects of exogenous SO2 derivatives (Na2SO3:NaHSO3, 3:1 M/M) on cellular injury in vitro by using the cell proliferation assay (MTS), cell counting kit 8 assay (CCK-8), and cyto-flow assay in the corticosterone (CORT)-induced PC12 cell injury model. We also examined the antidepressant and anxiolytic effects of SO2 derivatives on the chronic mild stress (CMS)-induced depression mouse model by using the open field test, novelty suppressed feeding test, forced swimming test, tail suspension test, and sucrose preference test. In the MTS and CCK-8 assays, we found that preexposure of SO2 derivatives significantly blocked CORT-induced decrease of cellular survival without causing any negative effects. Results from the cyto-flow assay indicated that treatment with SO2 derivatives could reverse CORT-induced early and late apoptosis of PC12 cells. Systemic treatment with SO2 derivatives produced markedly antidepressant- and anxiolytic-like activities in mice under normal condition and rapidly reversed CMS-induced depressive- and anxiety-like behaviors. In conclusion, these findings indicate that exogenous SO2 derivatives show protective properties against the detrimental effects of stress and exert antidepressant- and anxiolytic-like actions. The present study suggests that exogenous SO2 derivatives are potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of depression, anxiety, and other stress-related diseases.

Abstract
Conyzasaponins produced by the traditional Chinese herb Conyza blinii are oleanane-type saponins with a wide range of biological activities. Here, we identified a gene, designated CbCYP716A261, encoding a β-amyrin 28-hydroxylase in conyzasaponins biosynthesis. Ten full putative CYP sequences were isolated from Conyza blinii transcript tags. The CbCYP716A261 gene product was selected as the putative β-amyrin 28-hydroxylase by phylogenetic analysis and transcriptional activity analysis of methyl jasmonate-treated Conyza blinii. To identify the enzymatic activity, we performed enzymatic activity experiments in vitro and in vivo. The HPLC results revealed that CbCYP716A261 catalyzes the hydroxylation of β-amyrin at the C-28 position to yield oleanolic acid. Our findings provide new information about the conyzasaponin biosynthesis pathway and widen the list of isolated β-amyrin 28-hydroxylases.

Abstract
The management of early metastatic prostate cancer is based on systemic treatment by androgen deprivation therapy with or without chemotherapy or next-generation anti-androgen therapies. Local treatment of the prostate was initially used only to alleviate local symptoms. However, local radiotherapy of the prostate has been the subject of retrospective and prospective studies in patients with better prognostic factors, particularly in oligometastatic status. The results of these studies support that prostate radiotherapy can prolong the survival of patients with a low metastatic burden. This article states the biological bases, the main published and future published studies aimed to embed this strategy to optimize therapeutic management.

Abstract
The present study was a review of cases of central cystadenocarcinoma over the past 29 years and provides clinical, radiological, and pathological information about these rare lesions. Six cases of central cystadenocarcinoma treated between 1991 and 2019 at Peking University Hospital of Stomatology in Beijing, China, were retrospectively analysed. A comprehensive review of clinical records was summarised and the histological diagnosis was revised using the 2017 World Health Organization criteria. The mean age of patients with central cystadenocarcinoma was 63 (range 51-75) years, and the male:female ratio 1:1. The clinical signs included localised swelling, pain, lower lip numbness, and trismus. There were more cases in the mandible than in the maxilla. All lesions were unilocular or multilocular in radiolucent regions with or without clear margins. The preferred treatment of central cystadenocarcinoma was surgical excision with wide margins, and no local recurrence was found during follow-up. Central cystadenocarcinoma often occurred in middle-aged or elderly patients. Because cystadenocarcinoma is somewhat rare, metastatic tumours of the jaw should be considered when diagnosing cystadenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the factors influencing the efficacy of CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells in the treatment of patients with relapsed refractory B cell lymphoma and to provide evidence for further improvement of CAR-T efficacy. Methods: A total of 34 patients with relapsed and refractory B-cell lymphoma were recruited from the Department of Hematology of Tianjin First Central Hospital from February 2017 to January 2019. All patients received CD19 CAR-T cell therapy. These patients were evaluated for efficacy, factors with poor efficacyand adverse effects. Results: The overall response rate was 58.8% (20/34) and the complete remission rate was 41.2% (14/34) after infusion of CD19 CAR-T cells in 34 patients with relapsed refractory B cell lymphoma. According to the efficacy of CAR-T cells, patients were divided into two groups, 20 in the effective group and 14 in the poorly effective group. The median am ount of CD19 CAR-T cell infusions in these two groups were 8.6 (5.0-12.7)×10(6)/kg and 9.7 (5.8-15.0) × 10(6)/kg, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.654). The percentage of CD19 CAR-T cells in the effective group and the poorly treated group was 10.28% (3.92%-44.16%) and 4.05% (0.92%-28.63%), respectively.The effective group had a higher proportion of CAR-T cells than the poorly treated group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.371).The presence of massive mass was an unfavorable factor affecting the efficacy of CD19 CAR-T cells and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.001). Logistic regression multivariate analysis showed that the characteristics of massive tumors were still independent prognostic factors for poor efficacy of CD19 CAR-T cells (P=0.005, OR=0.039). Of all 34 patients, there were 70.6% (24/34) who showed varying degrees of adverse reactions after the infusion of CD19 CAR-T cells, mainly cytokines release syndrome (CRS). The median time of occurrence of fever was on the third day after infusion (0-11th) day. 16 patients were with grade 1 CRS, 7 with grade 2, and 1 with grade 3. After glucocorticoids and support treatment, they all showed improvements. Conclusions: CD19 CAR-T cell therapy has achieved a certain effect in CD19(+)B cell lymphoma, but has poor efficacy on some patients. Large mass tumors may be an adverse factors to CAR-T cell treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of bronchoscopy in the diagnosis of pulmonary complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the diagnosis and treatment process before and after ROSE examination of 12 patients with pulmonary complications after allo-HSCT who were admitted to the Department of hematology, Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2017 to June 2019. The diagnostic accuracy of the ROSE was evaluated by comparing the initial diagnosis of ROSE with the final clinical diagnosis. At the same time, the safety of ROSE examination was evaluated and two typical cases were shared. Results: In the 12 transbronchial lung biopsies, there were 5 cases of organizing pneumonia, 3 cases of bronchiolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia, 1 case of pulmonary fibrosis, 1 case of acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia, 1 case of pseudomembranous tracheobronchial aspergillosis and 1 case of uncertain diagnosis evaluated by ROSE. Compared with the final clinical diagnosis, there were 10 cases of accurate diagnosis made by ROSE (10/12). All patients were well tolerant to the operation of bronchoscopy. There was only a small amount of bleeding observed during the operation, without pneumothorax and hemoptysis. And no complications related to ROSE occurred. According to the initial diagnosis of ROSE, 10 cases of non-infectious pulmonary complications were treated with methylprednisolone or other immunosuppressive agents and 1 case of Aspergillus infection was given antifungal therapy. Seven patients with non-infectious pulmonary complications improved after treatment. One patient obtained uncertain diagnosis by ROSE was later diagnosed with virus infection by next generation sequencing technology and improved after treatment with foscarnet sodium and immunoglobulin. As of June 30, 2019, 7 patients improved and 5 died. Conclusion: ROSE has the advantages of diagnostic accuracy and rapidity, and is very suitable for patients with critical illness after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, who are in urgent need of definite diagnosis and prompt treatment, which is beneficial to improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
Objective: To construct and identify a mouse model with conditional knockout (cKO) of p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR-cKO) gene in epidermis cells by Cre-loxP system. Methods: Five p75NTR(flox/flox) transgenic C57BL/6J mice (aged 6-8 weeks, male and female unlimited, the age and sex of mice used for reproduction were the same below) and five keratin 14 promotor-driven (KRT14-) Cre(+ /-) transgenic C57BL/6J mice were bred and hybridized via Cre-loxP system. Five p75NTR(flox/+) ·KRT14-Cre(+ /-) mice selected from the first generation of mice were mated with five p75NTR(flox/flox) mice to obtain the second generation hybrids. After the second generation mice were born 20-25 days, the parts of the mice tail were cut off to identify the genotype by polymerase chain reaction method. Four p75NTR gene complete cKO mice (6 weeks old) and 4 wild-type mice (6 weeks old) were selected and sacrificed respectively. The abdominal skin tissue and brain tissue were excised to observe the expression of p75NTR in the two tissue of two types of mice by immunohistochemical staining. The abdominal skin tissue of two types of mice was obtained to observe the histomorphological changes by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Results: (1) Twenty second generation mice were bred. The genotype of 4 mice was p75NTR(flox/flox)·KRT14-Cre(+ /-)(p75NTR(-/-)), i. e. p75NTR gene complete cKO mice; the genotype of 5 mice was p75NTR(flox/+) ·KRT14-Cre(+ /-), i. e. p75NTR gene partial cKO mice; the genotype of 5 mice was p75NTR(flox/flox)·KRT14-Cre(-/-), and that of 6 mice was p75NTR(flox/+) ·KRT14-Cre(-/-), all of which were wild-type mice. (2) The expression of p75NTR was negative in skin epidermis tissue of p75NTR gene complete cKO mice, while numerous p75NTR positive expression was observed in skin epidermis tissue of wild-type mice. Abundant p75NTR positive expression was observed in brain tissue of both wild-type mice and p75NTR gene complete cKO mice. (3) There was no abnormal growth of skin epidermis tissue in both wild-type mice and p75NTR gene complete cKO mice, with intact hair follicle structure. Conclusions: Applying Cre-loxP system can successfully construct a p75NTR-cKO mice model in epidermis cells without obvious changes in skin histomorphology.

Abstract
We present a detailed study of the photoinduced magnetization precession and magnetic relaxation in epitaxial Pd/Fe films on MgO(0 0 1) substrates via all-optical pump-probe techniques. We explicitly formulate the correlation between the Gilbert damping and the effective damping in the optical approach. Furthermore, a non-local Gilbert damping induced by spin pumping is demonstrated self-consistently by the Gilbert damping dependence on Pd thickness and the [Formula: see text] relationship of damping with Fe thickness [Formula: see text]. The non-local Gilbert damping enables the determination of spin diffusion length [Formula: see text] in Pd and interfacial spin mixing conductance [Formula: see text]. Our work paves the way toward the optical determination of spin transport parameters.

Abstract
Objective: To compare clinical characteristics and prognosis between patients with primary (PTL) and secondary thyroid lymphoma (STL) . Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 46 patients with thyroid lymphoma (PTL 19, STL 27) from January 2002 to October 2018. Results: ①PTL group included 4 males and 15 females, with a median age of 57 years. The STL group included 10 males and 17 females, with a median age of 61 years. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) was the main pathological subtype in both PTL and STL groups, with 14 cases (73.7%) and 20 cases (74.1%) respectively. In terms of clinical manifestations, goiter was the most common symptom in PTL patients 100.0% (19/19) , while 29.6% (8/27) STL had goiter (P<0.001) . The incidences of increased thyroglobulin antibody (TRAb) /thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO) were 81.3% (13/16) in PTL group and 43.8% (7/16) in STL group (P=0.028) respectively. Concerning the clinical features of patients, only two PTL patients (10.5%) with advanced Ann Arbor stage (Ⅲ/Ⅳ) , while 21 (77.8%) STL experienced advanced Ann Arbor stage (P<0.001) . Elevated serum β(2)-MG were appeared in 1 (7.1%) PTL and 9 (47.4%) STL patients (P=0.013) , and advanced IPI score (3-5) was more common in STL than PTL (59.3% vs 5.3%, P<0.001) . ②Among the 17 PTL patients who received treatments, 15 (88.2%) achieved remission; as for STL patients received treatments, 23/25 (92.0%) were in remission. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of PTL (n=17) and STL groups (n=25) were (87.4±8.4) % and (70.0±13.1) % (P=0.433) respectively. ③The 5-year OS rate in 41 patients with B-cell thyroid lymphoma was (81.1±7.5) %. Univariate analysis showed that IPI score of 3-5 (P=0.040) and high level of serum IL-8 (P=0.022) were significantly associated with poor outcome. Conclusion: DLBCL was the most common subtype in both PTL and STL, and goiter was the major symptom in PTL. IPI score of 3-5 and high level of serum IL-8 were unfavorable prognostic factors for patients with B-cell thyroid lymphoma.

Abstract
Objectives The primary objective was to evaluate whether a molecular point-of-care test (POCT) for viral and atypical pathogens added to routine real-time PCR could reduce duration of intravenous antibiotics in hospitalized patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) compared with routine real-time PCR. Methods In this single-centre, open-label, randomized controlled study, we enrolled hospitalized adults diagnosed with LRTI. Patients were randomized to an intervention group (POCT FilmArray Panel for 20 viruses, atypical pathogens and bacteria plus routine real-time PCR) or a control group (routine real-time PCR for ten pathogens). The primary outcome was duration of intravenous antibiotics during hospitalization. The secondary outcomes included length of stay, cost of hospitalization and de-escalation within 72 hours and between 72 hours and 7 days. Intention-to-treat analysis was used. Results Between October 2017 and July 2018, we enrolled 800 eligible patients (398 in the intervention group and 402 in the control group). Duration of intravenous antibiotics in the intervention group was shorter than in the control (7.0 days (interquartile range (IQR) 5.0–9.0) versus 8.0 days (IQR 6.0–11.0); p <0.001). Length of hospital stay in the intervention group was significantly shorter (8.0 days (IQR 7.0–11.0) versus 9.0 days (IQR 7.0–12.0; p <0.001) and the cost of hospitalization in the intervention group was significantly lower ($1804.7 (IQR 1298.4–2633.8) versus $2042.5 (IQR 1427.4–2926.2); p 0.002) than control group. More patients in the intervention group achieved de-escalation within 72 hours (7.9%, 29/367 versus 3.2%, 12/377; p 0.005) and between 72 hours and 7 days (29.7%, 109/367 versus 22.0%, 83/377; p 0.024). Conclusions Use of molecular POCT testing for respiratory viruses and atypical pathogens might help to reduce intravenous antibiotic use in hospitalized LRTI patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to unravel the molecular mechanism of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). With microarray dataset GSE30784, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between OSCC and control samples. The DEGs overlapped with genes obtained from online database MalaCards were determined as OSCCDEG, followed by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. A total of 5177 up-regulated and 6081 down-regulated DEGs were identified between OSCC and control. Out of the DEGs, 451 genes were overlapped with the 704 genes gained from MalaCards and regarded as "OSCCDEG". Up-regulated OSCCDEG were associated with cell cycle pathway, while down-regulated OSCCDEG were linked to ErbB pathway. ANGPT1, ANGPT2 and 3 hub proteins (EGFR, HSP90AA1, RB1) in the PPI network were associated with the survival rates of several tumors. The largest network module with the hub protein EGFR was associated with positive regulation of cell communication. The second largest module with the hub node FN1 was related to angiogenesis. For the third network module in connection with DNA metabolism, the hub protein was PCNA. ErbB and cell cycle pathways were crucial for OSCC. EGFR, FN1, PCNA, ANGPT1 and ANGPT2 might be potential biomarkers for OSCC. These findings help provide guidelines for treating OSCC.

Abstract
There is an increased demand for efficient biomarkers for the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to evaluate plasma levels of TrxR activity in a large population to confirm its validity and efficacy in NSCLC diagnosis. Blood samples were obtained from 1922 participants (638 cases of NSCLC, 555 cases of benign lung diseases (BLDs) and 729 sex- and age-matched healthy controls). The plasma levels of TrxR activity in patients with NSCLC (15.66 ± 11.44 U/ml) were significantly higher (P < 0.01) than in patients with BLDs (6.27 ± 3.78 U/ml) or healthy controls (2.05 ± 1.86 U/ml). The critical value of plasma TrxR activity levels for diagnosis of NSCLC was set at 10.18 U/ml, with a sensitivity of 71.6% and a specificity of 91.9%. The combination of NSE, CEA, CA19-9, Cyfra21-1, and TrxR was more effective for NSCLC diagnosis (sensitivity and specificity in the training set: 85.6%, 90.2%; validation set: 86.2%, 92.4%) than was each biomarker individually (P < 0.001). TrxR can also efficiently distinguish the metastatic status of the tumor, and it can further differentiate between various histological differentiations. Together, plasma TrxR activity was identified as a convenient, non-invasive, and efficient biomarker for the diagnosis of NSCLCs, particularly for discriminating between metastatic and non-metastatic tumors, or for histologic differentiation.
