Abstract
Background Aberrant DNA methylation plays a crucial part in cancer progression through the silencing of gene expression. The purpose of this article was to investigate the DNA methylation-driven genes in breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA) by using integrated bioinformatics analysis and in vitro experiments. Methods The methylation and expression profile data of BRCA patients were downloaded from the TCGA database. Besides, the MethylMix algorithm was performed to distinguish differentially methylation-driven genes. Moreover, methylation-specific PCR was used to test the methylation-driven genes. Results A total of 218 differentially expressed methylation-driven genes were obtained. Then, four of these genes were applied to establish a prognostic risk model. Moreover, we found that hypermethylation was in the CpG islands of the promoter of COX7A1 gene in BRCA tissues. Furthermore, we found that COX7A1 was significantly down-regulated BRCA tissues and the COX7A1 expression level was markedly increased in BRCA cells after 5-Aza-dC treatment. Conclusions Our study reveals that aberrant promoter hypermethylation is critical for COX7A1 gene silencing in BRCA and that COX7A1 emerge as a new biomarker and therapeutic target for BRCA.

Abstract
Background This study analyzed the clinical data and general information of breast cancer patients who were admitted by the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University and underwent lumpectomy, followed by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) to investigate the effect of tumor location on the sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection rate, obtain a clear understanding of the SLNB procedure and further promote the use of this procedure in the local area. Methods This study involved a total of 118 patients who were diagnosed with breast cancer and admitted by the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University for lumpectomy and SLNB between July 2015 and June 2019. An analysis was conducted to explore the role of tumor location in the detection of SLNs. Results Tumor location was associated with the success rate of post-lumpectomy SLNB. In the case of tumor location in the upper outer quadrant (UOQ) of the breast near the axilla, the SLN detection rate was relatively low. In contrast, when a tumor occurred in any of the other quadrants or the UOQ next to the areola, the tumor location had no significant impact on the SLN detection rate. SLNB indicated that 102 out of the 118 patients had SLNs, with the detection rate of 86.4%. Particularly, for patients whose tumors were located in the UOQ near their axillae, the SLN detection rate was 30% (3/10). As to tumor location in other quadrants or the UOQ next to the areola, the SLN detection rate was up to 90.8% (99/109). Conclusions The performance of post-lumpectomy SLNB is associated with tumor location. SLNB is recommended when the tumor site lies in the upper inner/lower outer/lower inner quadrants (UIQ/LOQ/LIQ) of the breast or the UOQ next to the areola. If the SLNB result turns out to be negative, there is no need to perform axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). For tumor location in the UOQ of the breast, especially when it is near the axilla, SLNB is not a favorable option after lumpectomy. It is recommended that the patient receive a core needle biopsy (CNB) before SLNB.

Abstract
Background Staphylococcus aureus is able to invade mammalian cells during infection and was recently observed inside nasal mucosa of healthy carriers. Objectives To determine the intracellular activity of antimicrobial compounds used for decolonization procedures using a cell model mimicking S. aureus nasal epithelium invasion. Patients and methods HaCaT cells and human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) recovered from nasal swabs of S. aureus carriers were visualized by confocal laser scanning microscopy to detect intracellular S. aureus cells. An HaCaT cell model, mimicking S. aureus internalization observed ex vivo in HNECs, was used to assess the intracellular activity against S. aureus of 21 antimicrobial compounds used for nasal decolonization, including mupirocin and chlorhexidine. Results HaCaT cells and HNECs were found to internalize S. aureus with the same focal pattern. Most antimicrobial compounds tested on HaCaT cells were shown to have weak activity against intracellular S. aureus. Some systemic antimicrobials, including fusidic acid, clindamycin, linezolid, minocycline, ciprofloxacin, moxifloxacin, rifampicin and levofloxacin, reduced S. aureus intracellular loads by 0.43-1.66 log cfu/106 cells compared with the control (P < 0.001). By contrast, mupirocin and chlorhexidine reduced the S. aureus intracellular load by 0.19 and 0.23 log cfu/106 cells, respectively. Conclusions These data indicate that most of the antimicrobial compounds used for nasal decolonization, including mupirocin and chlorhexidine, exhibit weak activity against intracellular S. aureus using the HaCaT cell model. This work emphasizes the need to better understand the role of the S. aureus intracellular reservoir during nasal colonization in order to improve decolonization procedures.

Abstract
Elucidation of the pig microRNAome is essential for interpreting functional elements of the genome and understanding the genetic architecture of complex traits. Here, we extracted small RNAs from skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, and we compared their expression levels between one Western breed (Yorkshire) and seven indigenous Chinese breeds. We detected the expression of 172 known porcine microRNAs (miRNAs) and 181 novel miRNAs. Differential expression analysis found 92 and 12 differentially expressed miRNAs in adipose and muscle tissue respectively. We found that different Chinese breeds shared common directional miRNA expression changes compared to Yorkshire pigs. Some miRNAs differentially expressed across multiple Chinese breeds, including ssc-miR-129-5p, ssc-miR-30 and ssc-miR-150, are involved in adipose tissue function. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that the target genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs are associated mainly with signaling pathways rather than metabolic and biosynthetic processes. The miRNA-target gene and miRNA-phenotypic traits networks identified many hub miRNAs that regulate a large number of target genes or phenotypic traits. Specifically, we found that intramuscular fat content is regulated by the greatest number of miRNAs in muscle tissue. This study provides valuable new candidate miRNAs that will aid in the improvement of meat quality and production.

Abstract
To study adaptation of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) to hypoxic stress, we investigated physiological responses and lactate metabolism of the fish under acute hypoxia. The objectives of this study were to (a) observe changes in glucose, glycogen, and lactate content; (b) detect the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum, brain, heart, and liver tissues; and (c) quantify the dynamic gene expression of AMP activated protein kinase alpha (AMPKα), hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1), monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4), and lactate dehydrogenase-a (LDHa) following exposure to hypoxia. The fish were subjected to two hypoxia stresses (dissolved oxygen [DO] 1.20 ± 0.2 mg/L and 3.50 ± 0.3 mg/L, respectively) for 24 h. Our results showed that hypoxic stress significantly increased the decomposition of liver glycogen and significantly increased the concentration of blood glucose; however, the muscle glycogen content was not significantly decreased, which indicates that liver glycogen was the main energy source under acute hypoxia. Moreover, hypoxia led to accumulation of a large amount of lactic acid in tissues, possibly due to the activity of lactic acid dehydrogenase, but this process was delayed in the heart and brain relative to the liver. Additionally, hypoxia induced the expression of AMPKα, HIF-1α, MCT1, MCT4, and LDHa, suggesting that glycometabolism had switched from aerobic to anaerobic. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the response to hypoxia in largemouth bass.

Abstract
This study was performed to evaluate the cortical bone resorption of fibular bone after maxillary reconstruction with a fibula free flap. A total of 35 patients with maxillary defects that were repaired using a fibula flap (62 fibula segments) between January 2011 and January 2016 were enrolled. Computed tomography (CT) images taken 1 week and 1 year postoperative were used to evaluate cortical bone resorption. The 62 fibula segments were measured on four different surfaces in the CT images. At 1 week, the thickness of the cortical bone was 2.57 ± 0.58 mm, 2.72 ± 0.46 mm, 3.84 ± 0.98 mm, and 4.36 ± 0.90 mm for the exterior, interior, superior, and inferior sides, respectively. At approximately 1 year, the cortical bone thickness was significantly reduced to 2.00 ± 0.65 mm (P < 0.01), 2.25 ± 0.60 mm (P < 0.01), 3.37 ± 0.90 mm (P < 0.01), and 2.96 ± 0.84 mm (P < 0.01) for the exterior, interior, superior, and inferior sides, respectively. The cortical bone thickness of fibular bone is significantly reduced 1 year after the restoration of maxillary defects with a fibula free flap, most significantly on the inferior side.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the completion status, monitoring results, and existing problems of key occupational disease monitoring in Shandong, China, from 2015 to 2017, and to provide reference materials for improving monitoring quality and carrying out occupational disease prevention and control. Methods: The monitoring situation including project coverage, data collection, monitoring results, and monitoring quality of key occupational diseases in Shandong from 2015 to 2017 were described and comparatively analyzed. Results: In the past three years, the uncoverage rate of monitored counties (38.69% in 2015, 10.95% in 2016, and 5.11% in 2017) , the non-work rate of occupational health examination institutions (41.67% in 2015, 18.02% in 2016, and 8.72% in 2017) , and the non-work rate of occupational disease diagnosis institutions (42.31% in 2015, 38.46% in 2016, and 38.46% in 2017) in Shandong decreased year by year. The number of institutions with key occupational hazard factors reported to the safety supervision and management department increased year by year (it was 24140 in 2017, with an increase of 40.50% compared with 2016 and an increase of 114.62% compared with 2015) ; the key occupational hazard factors in enterprises were mainly noise (72.76%) , followed by benzene, silica dust, and coal dust. The number of workers exposed to key occupational hazard factors reported to the safety supervision and management department increased year by year; in 2017, it was 729245, with an increase of 39.78% compared with 2016 and an increase of 84.81% compared with 2015. The ratio of people exposed to key occupational hazard factors identified by the medical examination to the total people in the safety supervision system in a year decreased year by year (40.87% in 2015, 23.86% in 2016, and 17.95% in 2017) . Conclusion: In Shandong, the supervision of enterprises with key occupational hazard factors and the responsibility of enterprise protection should be strengthened. The occupational health examination rate of workers should be improved. It is suggested that we should carry out the special investigations and occupational health risk assessment for key enterprises and key populations.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) acts as a regulator of calcium homeostasis and bone remodeling. Runx2, an essential transcription factor in bone, is required for osteoblast differentiation. Noncoding RNAs such as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in regulating gene expression in osteoblasts. In this study, we investigated the effects of PTH on osteoblast differentiation via Runx2, lncRNA, and miRNA expression in human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) and human osteoblastic cells (MG63). PTH-treatment of hBMSCs for 24 h, 7 days, and 14 days stimulated Runx2 mRNA expression. Using bioinformatics tools, we identified 17 lncRNAs originating from human Runx2 gene. Among these, lnc-SUPT3H-1:16 (RUNX2-AS1:32) expression was highly up-regulated by the 7 d PTH-treatment in hBMSCs. We also identified miR-6797-5p as the putative target of lnc-SUPT3H-1:16 and Runx2 using bioinformatics tools. PTH-treatment increased the expression of miR-6797-5p in hBMSCs, and overexpression of miR-6797-5p decreased osteoblast differentiation in MG63 cells, suggesting a role for lnc-SUPT3H-1:16 as sponge molecule. A luciferase gene reporter assay identified direct targeting of miR-6797-5p with lnc-SUPT3H-1:16 and 3'UTR Runx2 in MG63 cells. Thus, PTH stimulated the expression of lnc-SUPT3H-1:16, miR-6797-5p and Runx2, and due to the sponging mechanism of lnc- SUPT3H-1:16 towards miR-6797-5p, Runx2 was protected, resulting in the promotion of osteoblast differentiation.

Abstract
Background Cancer metastasis is the major reason for cancer related deaths, and the mechanism of cancer metastasis still unclear. RPLP1, a member of a group of proteins known as ribosomal proteins, is associated with tumorigenesis and primary cell immortalization and is involved in cellular transformation. However, the expression and potential function of RPLP1 in TNBC remain unclear. Methods The expression of RPLP1 in TNBC tissues and cell lines were detected with Real-Time PCR and western blotting. 81 cases of TNBC tissue samples and adjacent non-tumor tissue samples were tested by immunochemistry to determine the correlation between the RPLP1 expression and clinicopathological characteristics. In vitro, we determined the role and mechanistic pathways of RPLP1 in tumor metastasis in TNBC cell lines. Results In this study, we detected high levels of RPLP1 expression in TNBC samples and cell lines. RPLP1 is upregulated in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tissues and cells, and high expression levels correlate with an increased risk of recurrence and metastasis. Furthermore, high RPLP1 expression was associated with a poor prognosis and was an independent prognostic marker for TNBC. In RPLP1-induced cancer metastasis, RPLP1 may increase cancer cell invasion, which is likely the result of its effect on the cancer cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Conclusions Altogether, our findings indicate RPLP1 is a poor prognostic potential biomarker and anti-metastasis candidate therapeutic target in triple-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
Background: The clinical remission period of small cell lung cancer was shorter after the first-line treatment. Aim: To observe whether oral etoposide maintenance therapy can improve the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with lung cancer who experienced complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), and disease stabilization (SD) after 4-6 cycles of first-line chemotherapy with etoposide plus cisplatin/carboplatin. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with ED-SCLC who were treated with etoposide (100 mg/d, iv.gtt days 1-5 with a cycle length of every 21 days) plus 4-6 cycles of cisplatin/carboplatin chemotherapy during the period from 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2016 at the Cancer Hospital affiliated with Zhengzhou University. All the patients were divided into 2 groups based on the criteria whether they had gone through maintenance therapy with etoposide: nonmaintained treatment group (NT), and maintenance treatment group (TH). The maintenance treatment group was further subdivided into the 25 mg subgroup (group A) and the 50 mg subgroup (group B) according to the maintenance dose. Analysis of 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model. PFS1 was defined as the first day of first-line treatment until the disease progressed or the last follow-up time. PFS2 was defined as the first day of etoposide capsule treatment until disease progression or the last follow-up time. Results: A total of 85 patients were enrolled in this study; there were 50 patients in the NT group (58.8%) and 35 patients in the TH group (41.2%). In the TH group, there were 10 (28.6%) in the 25 mg subgroup (group A) and 25 (71.4%) in the 50 mg subgroup (group B). Detailed patient information and tumor-related parameters are shown in Table 1. For all patients, the median PFS1 in the first-line regimen with either the cisplatin or carboplatin group was 6.5 months (95% CI: 5.870-7.130) and 6.4 months (95% CI: 5.970-6.970) respectively ( P = 0.0551). Median progression-free survival for all patients and the median PFS for patients of the TH group were 6.5 months (95% CI: 6.138-6.861) and 7.2 months (95% CI: 6.702-7.698) respectively; the median PFS for the NT group, subgroup A, and subgroup B were 5.7 months (95% CI: 4.862-6.478), 6.7 months (95% CI: 6.390-7.010), and 7.4 months (95% CI: 6.386-8.474), respectively ( P = 0.0043). Median PFS2 was 2.400 months for maintenance treatment patients; the median PFS2 in the 25 mg and 50 mg groups was 2.100 months (95% CI 1.690-2.510 months) and 3.030 months (95% CI 1.937-4.123 months), respectively ( P = 0.0309). Conclusion: Use of etoposide capsules to maintain chemotherapy can significantly prolong the progression-free survival (PFS) of CR, PR, and SD in patients with extensive SCLC and improve 1-year survival; a 50-mg dose is better than 25 mg.
