Abstract
Background Accurate assessment of predictive biomarker expression is critical in patient selection in clinical trials or clinical practice. However, changes in biomarker expression may occur after treatment. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of chemotherapy on MET expression in gastric cancer (GC). Methods MET expression was examined immunohistochemically before and after treatment in 122 patients with unresectable or recurrent GC, and was evaluated according to H-score or the scoring criteria used in the MetMAb trial. MET gene amplification was assessed by chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH). The antitumor effect of MET targeted therapy was investigated in human gastric cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, and the underlying molecular mechanisms were analyzed by western blot. Results MET expression was associated with Lauren classification as well as tumor differentiation by either scoring system. MET amplification was not associated with clinical characteristics. Of the 71 patients who had paired pre- and post-treatment tumor tissues, 28 patients (39%) were initially positive for MET expression, and 43 (61%) were negative. Twenty-five patients (35%) showed significant changes in MET expression after treatment (P=0.007). Additionally, there was a concomitant overexpression of MET and HER2 in a subset of GC patients. MET inhibitor volitinib could significantly inhibit cell proliferation and xenograft growth in vitro and in vivo in MKN45 cells with MET and phosphorylated MET (pMET) high expressions via suppressing downstream PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling pathways. Furthermore, combination therapy targeting both MET and HER2 demonstrated a synergistic antitumor activity. Conclusions MET expression is altered post chemotherapy and MET status should be evaluated in real-time. Both MET and pMET expressions might need to be considered for patients suitable for volitinib treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effectiveness of a new health education pathway for echinococcosis control among primary school students in regions highly prevalent for echinococcosis in China. METHODS Six primary schools were randomly selected from echinococcosis hyper-endemic regions, with 13 classes assigned to the intervention group and 9 to the control group, and all students in these 21 classes were recruited as the study subjects. Echinococcosis health education was performed through the pathway of assessing the current status-strengthening the building of teaching resources-focusing on practices in the intervention group, while routine health education was given in the control group. A questionnaire survey was performed to assess the score of echinococcosis control knowledge (including theoretical knowledge score and mean daily practical capability score) before and after the health education interventions to evaluate the effectiveness of this new health education pathway for echinococcosis control. RESULTS The mean score of echinococcosis control knowledge was 68.86 ± 18.70 points at baseline, with the mean theoretical knowledge score of 40.97 ± 10.75 points, and the mean daily practical capability score of 27.89 ± 12.50 points. Clustering analysis showed three types of populations, including "unsatisfactory", "learn and apply creatively", and "rote learning", which accounted for 24.62% (240/975), 45.74% (446/975) and 29.64% (289/975), respectively. The mean score of echinococcosis control knowledge was 81.08 ± 18.15 points in the intervention group during the final assessment, with the mean theoretical knowledge score of 43.65 ± 9.40 points, and the mean daily practical capability score of 37.43 ± 12.22 points, and both were significantly higher relative to baseline (t = -4.201 and -15.202, both P values < 0.01). The mean score of echinococcosis control knowledge was comparable between at baseline (70.55 ± 19.46 points) and final assessment (71.74 ± 19.37 points) in the control group (t = -0.87, P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The awareness of echinococcosis control knowledge is fair among primary school students in echinococcosis hyper-endemic regions; however, the capability of combining theoretical learning and practices requires to be improved. The health education mode based on the pathway of assessing the current status-strengthening the building of teaching resources-focusing on practices seems to remarkably improve the understanding of echinococcosis control knowledge among primary school students in echinococcosis hyper-endemic regions.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To observe the metabolomics changes of serum after skin incision of rats and to determine the wound age of skin incision. Methods A rat skin incision model was established, 21 SD rats were divided into 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 16 h, 24 h after skin incision groups and the control group, then blood was taken from rats in the experimental groups at the corresponding time points after injury, and taken from the control group directly. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technology was used to detect serum metabolites and screen marker metabolites, then orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) model was used to establish a regression model for the relationship between marker metabolite content and wound age to determine wound age of skin. Results GC-MS was used to detect the serum collected, and 21 marker metabolites were obtained through initial screening, and 4 marker metabolites were further analyzed and screened using multivariate statistical analysis methods. There was no correspondence between the change rule of the serum content and wound age, therefore it cannot be used directly to determine wound age. OPLS model could be used to obtain regression models of the content and wound age of 21 marker metabolites and 4 marker metabolites, both of which can determine wound age, but the prediction accuracy of the regression model of 21 marker metabolites was significantly higher. Conclusion Using metabolomics to establish a regression model of the metabolite content and wound age has the potential to be applied to skin incision wound age determination.

Abstract
Background Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) may complicate the immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) therapy. The effect of age on these irAEs is not elucidated. The aim of the study was to compare the occurrence of irAEs in different age groups. Methods Patients with lung cancer receiving anti-programmed death- (ligand)1 (PD-(L)1) were selected from the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Immune cell infiltration data set was obtained from TIMER 2.0 web server. The patients were stratified for age as follows: <65 year-old (young patients, YP), 65 to 75 year-old (middle aged patients, MP), ≥75 year-old (old patients, OP). The severity of irAEs was compared using logistic binary regression model. The distribution differences of immune cell infiltration were estimated using non-parametric tests. Results Of all the 17,006 patients treated by anti-PD-(L)1, 7,355 were <65 (YP), 6,706 were 65–75 (MP), and 2,945 were ≥75 (OP). In general, we analyzed a total of 16 irAEs in this article and found that pulmonary toxicity was more frequent in OP (OP vs. YP: OR = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.28–1.64) and MP (MP vs. YP: OR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.24–1.52), but hepatitis was less frequent in OP (OP vs. YP: OR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.32–0.97) and MP (MP vs. YP: OR = 0.57, 95%CI: 0.38–0.85). Further analysis demonstrated that older patients showed less B cell, CD8+ T cell and myeloid dendritic cell infiltration than younger patients. Conclusions Elderly patients exhibited higher incidences of pulmonary toxicity, while hepatitis was found at low incidence. Therefore, clinicians should carefully monitor comorbidities in elderly patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the mechanism of HDAC6 mediated aggresome-autophagy-lysosome pathway in paraquat-induced autophagy in dopaminergic neurons. Methods: Human neuroblastoma cell (SH-SY5Y cell) was used as model of dopaminergic neurons in vitro. The cells were treated with terminal concentrations of 0, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400μmol/L PQ for 24 hours, and the cells were induced by 100 μmol/L PQ for different time (0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 h) . Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The expression levels of HDAC6, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, LC3, Beclin1, p62 and Lamp-1 were detected by Western blot. Immunofluorescence double-labeling method was used to observe the expression and localization of HDAC6, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, LC3, Lamp-1 and γ-tubulin in cells. Results: CCK-8 assay showed PQ induced cell survival rate decrease in a time and dose dependent manner (R=-0.950、-0.960, P<0.05) .Western blot showed that compared with control group, the protein levels of HDAC6, α-syn, p62 in PQ-exposed group were significantly increased (P<0.05) , but there was a significant decrease in expression level of the ratio of autophagy-related protein LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ, Beclin1, Dynein IC1/2, Lamp-1in PQ-exposed group (P<0.05) . The results of immunofluorescence double-labeling showed that compared with the control group, the fluorescence signals of HDAC6 and α-syn in the PQ-exposed group increased, and the protein expression level increased, while the fluorescence signals of Dynein IC1/2, LC3, and Lamp-1 decreased. The protein expression level is reduced. HDAC6 gradually accumulates from the diffuse shape to the nucleus; Under normal circumstances, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, γ-tubulin, LC3, and Lamp-1 are mainly distributed in the cytoplasm. After PQ is infected, they gather in the nucleus and co-localize with HDAC6 in the area around the nucleus. Conclusion: PQ may induce abnormal aggregation of α-syn by inducing HDAC6-mediated aggresome-autophagy-lysosomal pathway disorder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To research the expression and biological function of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-645 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to further explore the regulatory relationship between miR-645 and tumor protein p53 inducible protein 11 (TP53I11). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 41 tissue samples were collected from NSCLC patients, and RNAs were extracted from these tissues and reversely transcribed. Then, the expression level of miR-645 in the 41 tissue samples of patients, as well as that in NSCLC cells and human bronchial mucosal epithelial cells, was detected by quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). In vitro functional assays [methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, colony formation assay and transwell assay] were conducted to explore the effects of miR-645 on the proliferation and migration abilities of NSCLC cells. Finally, the downstream target genes of miR-645 were predicted by bioinformatics, screened via qRT-PCR and Western blotting experiments, and verified through Dual-Luciferase reporter gene assay. RESULTS QRT-PCR results showed that the miR-645 expression was upregulated in the tissue samples of 35 out of 41 NSCC cases. Besides, the miR-645 expression was upregulated in NSCC cells compared with that in human bronchial mucosal epithelial cells. After interfering with miR-645 expression, in vitro functional assay (MTT assay, colony formation assay and transwell assay) results revealed that the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were inhibited. According to the results of qRT-PCR and Western blotting, after knocking down the expression of miR-645 in NSCLC cells, the expression of TP53I11 was upregulated, and the results of Dual-Luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed that miR-645 could directly bind to TP53I11. CONCLUSIONS MiR-645 expression is upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cells, and the proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells are promoted by targeted regulation on the TP53I11 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has been widely used as an efficient transgenic vector in biomedical research, as well as gene therapy. Serotype-associated transduction efficiency, tissue- or cell-type tropism and immunological profile are major considerations in the various applications of rAAVs. There are increasing needs for different serotypes of rAAV, either naturally isolated or artificially engineered. However, affordable and scalable production of a desired serotype of rAAV remains very difficult, especially for researchers lacking relevant experience. OBJECTIVE On the basis of our previously established single recombinant baculovirus expression vector (BEV)-derived OneBac system, we have optimized the process and expanded the rAAV production range to the full range of serotypes rAAV1-13. METHODS Firstly, the AAV Cap gene was optimized to translate by ribosome leaky scanning and the gene of interest (GOI) was cloned into the pFD/Cap-(ITR-GOI)-Rep2 shuttle plasmid. Following the classical Bac-to-Bac method, sufficient BEV stock containing all rAAV packaging elements can be quickly obtained. Finally, we can repeatedly scale up the production of rAAVs in one week by using a single BEV to infect suspension-cultured Sf9 cells. The rAAV1-13 shows relatively high yields ranging from 5×104 to 4×105 VG/cell. More than 1×1015 VG purified rAAVs can be easily obtained from 5 L suspension-cultured Sf9 cells. RESULTS As expected, rAAV serotypes 1-13 show different potencies for in vitro transduction and cell-type tropisms. CONCLUSION In summary, the single BEV-derived OneBac system should prove popular for laboratory scaling-up production of any serotype of rAAV.

Abstract
Matching is a standard method for selecting research objects regarding the observational research, which controls confounding factors and improves statistical efficiency. However, its role in controlling confounding is not consistent in different observational studies. Matching can eliminate the confounding bias of matching variables in cohort studies, but checking on itself cannot eliminate confounding bias in case-control studies. In matched case-control studies, researchers may not accurately judge whether the variable is a confounder. Sometimes the variables that are not confounders are mistakenly matched. In that case, it will result in overmatching, which will lead to the decline of statistical efficiency or the introduction of unavoidable bias or increase of workload. If the real confounding factors are omitted, it will cause confounding bias. Therefore, researchers should consider what kind of matching variable selection criteria should be formulated. A directed acyclic graph is a visual graphic language that can show the complicated causality among different epidemiological research designs. This article analyzes the role of Matching in different observational research designs from the perspective of the directed acyclic graph, formulates the selection criteria for matching variables in matched case-control studies, and provides some reference suggestions for future epidemiological research design.

Abstract
Background Neutrophils can play a pro-tumor or anti-tumor role depending on the tumor microenvironment. The effects of concurrent treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and radiotherapy (RT) on neutrophils have not yet to be described. Methods Hypofractionated radiation of 8 Gy ×3 fractions was administered with or without recombinant G-CSF to Lewis lung carcinoma tumor-bearing C57BL/6 model mice. The activation status of cytotoxic T cells in the mice was measured, along with the levels of tumor-associated neutrophils, cytotoxic T cells, and Treg cells. Tumor growth, survival, cytokine expression, and signaling pathways underlying anti-tumor effects of tumor-associated neutrophils after treatment were also studied. To ascertain the effects of concurrent RT and G-CSF on tumor-associated neutrophils, neutrophil depletion was performed. Results RT affected early neutrophil infiltration, which is the first-line immune response. Subsequently, enhanced accumulation of lymphocytes, particularly CD8 cytotoxic T cells, was observed. Notably, lymphocytic infiltration was inhibited by neutrophil depletion but enhanced by G-CSF treatment. RT generated persistent DNA damage, as evidenced by an accumulation of phosphorylation of histone H2AX (γH2AX), and subsequently triggered inflammatory chemokine secretion. The chemokines CXCL1, CXCL2, and CCL5 were upregulated in both radiation-treated cells and the corresponding supernatants. Neutrophils that were newly recruited after RT improved radiosensitivity by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition via the reactive oxygen species-mediated PI3K/Akt/Snail signaling pathway, and G-CSF treatment enhanced this effect. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that RT activates neutrophil recruitment and polarizes newly recruited neutrophils toward an antitumor phenotype, which is enhanced by the concurrent administration of G-CSF. Mesenchymal-epithelial transition induced by reactive oxygen species accumulation plays a major role in this process. Thus, the polarization of tumor-associated neutrophils might play a role in future cancer immunotherapies.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To screen serum biomarkers after skeletal muscle contusion in rats based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolomics technology, and support vector machine (SVM) regression model was established to estimate skeletal muscle contusion time. Methods The 60 healthy SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group (n=50), control group (n=5) and validation group (n=5). The rats in the experimental group and the validation group were used to establish the model of skeletal muscle contusion through free fall method, the rats in experimental group were executed at 0 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 96 h, 144 h and 240 h, respectively, and the rats in validation group were executed at 192 h, while the rats in the control group were executed after three days' regular feeding. The skeletal muscles were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE). The serum metabolite spectrum was detected by GC-MS, and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) pattern recognition method was used to discriminate the data and select biomarkers. The SVM regression model was established to estimate the contusion time. Results The 31 biomarkers were initially screened by metabolomics method and 6 biomarkers were further selected. There was no regularity in the changes of the relative content of the 6 biomarkers with the contusion time and the SVM regression model can be successfully established according to the data of 6 biomarkers and the 31 biomarkers. Compared with the injury time [(55.344±7.485) h] estimated from the SVM regression model based on the data of 6 biomarkers, the injury time [(195.781±1.629) h] estimated from the SVM regression model based on the data of 31 biomarkers was closer to the actual value. Conclusion The SVM regression model based on metabolites data can be used for the contusion time estimation of skeletal muscles.

Abstract
Background Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is a common complication of thoracic cancer radiation therapy. Currently, there is no effective treatment for RILI. RILI is associated with chronic inflammation, this injury is perpetuated by the stimulation of chemokines and proinflammatory cytokines. Recent studies have demonstrated that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plays a pivotal role in inflammation and fibrosis. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of GM-CSF against the development of RILI in lung tissue. Method First, a single fraction of radiation at a dose of 16 Gy was targeted at the entire thorax of wild-type (WT) C57BL/6 mice and GM-CSF–/– mice to induce RILI. Second, we detected the radioprotective effects of GM-CSF by measuring the inflammatory biomarkers and fibrosis alteration on radiated lung tissues. Furthermore, we investigated the potential mechanism of GM-CSF protective effects in RILI. Results The GM-CSF–/– mice sustained more severe RILI than the WT mice. RILI was significantly alleviated by GM-CSF treatment. Intraperitoneally administered GM-CSF significantly inhibited inflammatory cytokine production and decreased epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the RILI mouse model. Conclusions GM-CSF was shown to be an important modulator of RILI through regulating inflammatory cytokines, which provides a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of RILI.

Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and bevacizumab-based therapy are a promising treatment approach to significantly improving overall survival (OS) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, the incidence of adverse events induced by a combination treatment with programmed cell death-1 or programmed death ligand 1 [PD-(L)1] inhibitor and bevacizumab remains unknown. The current evidence from prospective studies is limited. Thus, efforts using real-world data to further improve our understanding of the potential adverse events will be necessary. Methods The present study included 15,872 participants with NSCLC in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database from April 2013 to September 2019. The definition of adverse events (AEs) relied on the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Statistical analysis was performed, and odds ratio (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Results Of the 15,872 participants with NSCLC, 15,463 cases were treated with the PD-(L)1 inhibitor monotherapy, while 409 cases were treated with both PD-(L)1 inhibitor and bevacizumab. Compared with monotherapy, combination therapy had lower risks of pneumonitis, respiratory failure, edema, disease progression, and death; however, combination therapy was also associated with significantly higher risks of pyrexia, general physical health deterioration, stomatitis, dehydration, thrombocytopenia, peripheral neuropathy, nephritis, bone marrow failure, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, neutropenia, and serious AEs. The results of the multivariate analysis suggested that combination therapy was the independent risk factor for pyrexia, neutropenia, nephritis, ITP, and the independent protective factor for respiratory failure. Conclusions We observed that the spectrum and risk of irAEs differed widely between therapeutic regimens, and irAEs involved multiple organ systems both in monotherapy or combination therapy. Deepening our understanding of irAEs has a great clinical value for improving individualized clinical patient management and the safety of medication use.

Abstract
Background To investigate the serum level of hepcidin and its relationship with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods Blood was obtained from 75 MHD patients before undergoing hemodialysis and 20 healthy controls. Serum hepcidin, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and interleukin (IL)-6 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). Spearman correlation, and binary logistic regression linear regression analyses were used to assess the relationship between serum hepcidin and other parameters. Results The serum level of hepcidin, AOPP and IL-6 was significantly up-regulated in MHD patients compared with the control (P < 0.05). Furthermore, serum hepcidin levels in patients with CVD were higher than those in patients without CVD (P < 0.05). In all MHD patients, serum hepcidin level was correlated positively with erythropoietin (EPO) dose per week (ρ = 0.251, P = 0.030), EPO resistance index (ρ = 0.268, P = 0.020), ferritin (ρ = 0.814, P < 0.001), transferin saturation (TSAT, ρ = 0.263, P = 0.023), AOPP (ρ = 0.280, P = 0.049), high sensitive C reactive protein (ρ = 0.151, P = 0.006), IL-6 (ρ = 0.340, P = 0.003) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI, ρ = 0.290, P = 0.033). Moreover, it was negatively correlated with serum pre-albumin (ρ = -0.266, P = 0.021), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC, ρ = -0.458, P < 0.001), unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC, ρ = -0.473, P < 0.001) and transferrin (ρ = -0.487, P < 0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that ferritin (β = 0.708, P < 0.001), TIBC (β = -0.246, P = 0.032) and IL-6 (β = 0.209, P = 0.041) were independently associated with hepcidin. Results of binary logistic regression analysis suggested that higher serum hepcidin level (>249.2 ng/mL) was positively and independently related to CVD (OR = 1.32, 95% CI [1.20-9.56], P = 0.043). Conclusions Serum hepcidin level is associated with CVD in MHD patients, indicating that hepcidin may be a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for CVD.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the protective effect of taurine (Tau) on hippocampus, substantia nigra neurons and microglia in paraquat (PQ) -induced Pakinson's disease-like mice. Methods: In April 2019, the specific pathogen free (SPF) C57BL/6 mice (n=36) were randomly divided into control group (NaCl) , Tau control group (150 mg/kg) , PQ exposure group (10 mg/kg PQ group, 15 mg/kg PQ group) , Tau intervention group (Tau+10 mg/kg PQ group, Tau+15 mg/kg PQ group) , respectively. Tau was used in 1 h before PQ administration for consecutive 6 weeks (twice per week) . General and neurobehavioral tests (Traction test, Open field test, Forced Swimming test, Tail suspension test, High plus maze and Object recognition test) were performed to test motor and cognitive function. After neuroethology detection, mice were euthanized and brains were collected. Nissl staining was used to detect the changes of the number and morphology of Nissl bodies in hippocampus and substantia nigra neurons of mice. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to test the levels of neuron marker neuronal nuclei antigen (NeuN) , substantia nigra dopaminergic neuron marker tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) , α-synuclein (α-syn) , microglia markers ionized calcium bindingadaptor molecule-1 (Iba-1) , inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in mice substantia nigra. The coexpression of Iba-1 and TH double-labeling, α-syn and TH double-labeling in mice substantia nigra were measured by immunofluorescence double staining. Results: General behavioral changes such as slow reaction and reduced action occurred in mice of PQ group. Compared with the control group, the scores of Traction test, and the time ratio of new object recognition in the PQ group decreased (P<0.05) , the fixed time of Swimming test and Tail suspension test increased (P<0.05) , the horizontal crawl number and vertical times of Open field test and the ratio of open arm residence time of High plus maze in the 15 mg/kg PQ group decreased (P<0.05) . Compared with the PQ group, the same dose of Tau+PQ group showed increased scores in Traction test (P<0.05) and decreased fixed time of Swimming test and Tail suspension test (P<0.05) . Compared with the 15 mg/kg PQ group, the horizontal crawl number of Open field test and the time ratio of new object recognition increased in the Tau+15 mg/kg PQ group (P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, the PQ group showed a decrease in the number of Nissl body in the hippocampus and substantia nigra (P<0.05) , a decrease in the number of NeuN and TH positive cells in the substantia nigra (P<0.05) , with a large number of α-syn deposition, Iba-1 activation of microglia cells, and an increase in the expression of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, iNOS) in the hippocampus and substantia nigra (P<0.05) . Compared with the PQ group, the same dose of Tau+PQ group showed the number of Nissl in the hippocampus and substantia nigra was significantly increased (P<0.05) , the number of NeuN and TH positive cells in the substantia nigra was significantly increased (P<0.05) , the expression levels of α-syn, Iba-1 and inflammatory factors (IL-1β, iNOS) in the substantia nigra were significantly decreased (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Tau could protect PQ-induced degeneration of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons and hippocampal neuron loss by inhibiting the activation of microglia cells and release of inflammatory factors, and effectively improve the neurobehavioral and brain histopathological changes of PQ-induced PD-like mice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Monogenic forms of hypertension are regarded as a group of conditions characterized by early-onset and resistant hypertension, electrolyte imbalance. These alterations stem from single mutations that lead to maladaptive excretion of potassium, and consequent hypokalemia.
Purpose
This study aimed to analyze genes involved in monogenic forms of hypertension and clinical features in Chinese patients with early-onset hypertension and hypokalemia.
Methods
A total of 129 unrelated Chinese patients (89 male and 40 females; average onset age of hypertension 25±5 years) with early-onset hypertension and hypokalemia. Patients with hypertension secondary to common causes, including renal disease and renovascular disease, aortic diseases, and obstructive sleep apnea were excluded. Genomic DNA were extracted from peripheral blood leucocytes of each subject. Using next-generation sequencing, we targeted and sequenced 42 genes related to monogenic forms of hypertension. All rare variants were confirmed by Sanger sequencing.
Results
We detected 63 rare variants in 23 genes in 52 patients (40.3%). The variants in genes associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism, familial aldosteronism, pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma, and pseudohyperaldosteronism accounted for 22.2%, 23.8%, 20.6% and 11.1% respectively. Patients with rare variants had a significantly lower serum potassium (2.94±0.21 vs. 3.30±0.24 mmol/L, P<0.001) and family history of hypertension (67.3% vs. 31.2%, P<0.001). During 24±7.9 months of follow-up, several complication occurred, including stroke in 22 patients, coronary heart disease in 10, and chronic renal failure in 10. Factors associated with stroke were carrying rare variants (HR=4.371, 95% CI: 1.709–11.181, P=0.002), systolic blood pressure (HR=1.015, 95% CI: 1.004–1.037, P=0.015).
Conclusions
This study revealed a wide genetic spectrum in Chinese patients with early-onset hypertension and hypokalemia. Genetic testing helps to differentiate the diagnosis of monogenic forms of hypertension in patients with hypertension and hypokalemia, and evaluates prognosis. Those patients carrying rare variants presented with a high risk of severe complications, stroke and needed close follow-up.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 gene (HSD11B2). AME is characterized by early-onset and severe hypertension, hypokalemia, and metabolic alkalosis.
Purpose
This study aimed to study the molecular genetics, clinical presentation, biochemical parameters, and treatment in the proband with AME from a non-consanguineous Chinese family.
Methods
Genomic DNA was recovered from peripheral blood leukocytes from nine subjects in this family. Next-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing were performed to identify the HSD11B2 variants. In silico and genotype-phenotype correlations analyses were used to predict pathogenicity of candidate variants. A tailored therapy was performed for identified mutations carriers.
Results
Genetic analysis identified novel compound heterozygous HSD11B2 mutations (c.343-348del/c.1099-1101del) in the proband. In silico analysis predicted these HSD11B2 mutations were deleterious. The structural change and predicted consequences owing to the compound mutations have been modeled. The same compound mutations were not found in any other family members, 100 hypertensives, or 100 healthy controls. The proband had typical manifestations of AME, including early-onset and severe hypertension, hypokalemia, low plasma aldosterone concentration, hypokalemic alkalosis and nephrolithiasis. The probands' blood pressure and serum potassium level had returned to normal after treatmennt with dexamethasone (1.5 mg/day) and spirolactone (40 mg/day) for three months.
Conclusions
We conclude that this novel compound mutations are responsible for AME in the proband. These genetic and clinical data expand the genetic spectrum of HSD11B2 and demonstrate the pathogenic effects of identified mutations and genotype-phenotype correlations. It is emphasized that genetic diagnosis and specific treatment play an important role in patients with AME.

Abstract
This study is sought to identify the components in greengage wine that predict the sensory properties. Taste-active compounds and aroma-active compounds of 20 commercially available greengage wines from different regions were characterized. The relationship between these compounds, wine samples and sensory attributes was modeled by partial least squares regression. The regression analysis indicated the taste-active compounds, alanine, leucine, proline, glutamic acid, lysine, malic acid, citric acid, sucrose, glucose, gallic acid, caffeic acid and tannin made a great contribution to the characteristic taste or mouthfeel of greengage wine. Meanwhile, the aroma-active compounds, including ethyl acetate, ethyl butanoate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl octanoate, ethyl decanoate, 3-methylbutanol, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, octanoic acid and benzaldehyde, modeled well with the flavor characteristic of greengage wine. The study revealed new insights into the relationship between chemistry and wine sensory characters, which has implications for developing an objective measurement system for determining greengage wine quality.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of Paraquat on autophagy level in SH-SY5Y cell and the mechanism of abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein. Methods: Human neuroblastoma cell (SH-SY5Y cell) was used as model of dopaminergic neurons in vitro. The cells were treated with different concentrations of PQ (0, 18.75, 37.5, 75, 150, 300, 600 μmol/L) for 24 hours, and induced by 150 μmol/L PQ for 0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96 hours to detect the relative survival rate of cells and determine dose/time-effect relationship. The cells were treated with concentration of 0, 75, 150, 300, 600 μmol/L PQ for 24 hours, and induced by 150 μmol/L PQ for different hours to detect intracellular LDH activity. The expression levels of autophagy-related proteins(LC3I, LC3II, Beclin1 , Vps34 and p62) and α-synuclein were detected by Western blot. The gene expression level of α-synuclein was assayed by Real-time quantitative PCR. The expression level of α-synuclein was also evaluated by immunofluorescence. The cells were pretreated with 100 nmol/L autophagy inducer rapamycin (RAPA) for 6 hours. The expression levels of autophagy-related proteins and α-synuclein were detected by Western blot. Results: CCK8 assay showed PQ induced cell survival rate decrease in a time and dose dependent manner; Compared with control group, the activity of LDH in the cell supernatant increased significantly after PQ exposure (P<0.05) ; Western blot analysis showed the ratio of autophagy-related protein LC3II/LC3I, Beclin1 and Vps34 protein expression were significantly lower after PQ treatment while the expression of p62 protein was higher (P<0.05) ; The protein and gene expression of α-synuclein were increased significantly after PQ treatment (P <0.05) ; Immunofluorescence showed the fluorescence intensity of α- synuclein in cells was significantly enhanced (P <0.05) . Compared with PQ group, the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins LC3II/LC3I and Beclin1 were significantly increased whlie α-synuclein protein level was decreased after RAPA induction (P<0.05) . Similarly, the IF result showed the fluorescence signal of α- synuclein significantly decreased after RAPA induction (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Paraquat induced autophagy dysfunction in SH-SY5Y cells, which leads to an abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pyrotinib was well tolerated but its efficacy was unsatisfactory in patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC) (NCT02378389). This study was to optimize the efficacy of pyrotinib. METHODS Human GC cell lines and AVATAR mice were used to explore the refractory mechanisms of pyrotinib. A pyrotinib-combined strategy was proposed, which was validated in preclinical AVATAR mouse and in clinical patients enrolled in a phase I clinical trial (NCT03480256). RESULTS Dysregulation of CCND1-CDK4/6-Rb axis might be the key to pyrotinib refractory. The strategy of pyrotinib combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor SHR6390 was proposed and validated in preclinical AVATAR mouse, which was successfully verified in clinical patients. For five patients treated with pyrotinib plus SHR6390 who had available response evaluation, the best response was partial response in three patients, stable disease in one patient, and progressive disease in one patient. The progression-free survival times were 120, 200, 532, 109, and 57 days, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This translational study suggests that pyrotinib combined with SHR6390 may serve as a promising strategy for patients with HER2-positive GC. TRIAL REGISTRATION The ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers are NCT02378389 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT02378389, registered in 11 February 2015) and NCT03480256 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT03480256, registered in 8 March 2018).
