Abstract
Oxidative stress contributes to the pathology of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Galectin-1 has shown an anti-oxidative stress effect. The present study investigated whether this anti-oxidative stress effect can account for the neuroprotective actions of galectin-1 induced by cerebral I/R injury. A cerebral I/R injury model was created in C57Bl/6 mice by transient occlusion of the middle cerebral artery, after which the mice were treated with galectin-1 for 3 days. Infarct volumes were measured. A rotarod test and neurological deficit score assessment was performed to evaluate the neurological deficits. Oxidative stress was evaluated by measuring the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde (MDA), while the anti-oxidative stress status was assessed by measuring molecules such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidation enzyme (GSH-Px) in the ischemic cerebral hemisphere of mice. The inflammatory cytokines, including Interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were measured, and the expression of microglia was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in the ischemic cerebral hemisphere of mice. Galectin-1 treatment ameliorated neurological deficits and reduced infarct volumes in the mice model with cerebral I/R injury. Moreover, it was demonstrated that galectin-1 can significantly alleviate cerebral I/R injury in the ischemic cerebral hemisphere by decreasing the production of ROS and MDA, but increasing the production of CAT, SOD and GSH-Px. Galectin-1 treatment decreased microglia expression, and IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the ischemic cerebral hemisphere of mice. Galectin-1 could improve the outcome of cerebral I/R injury by alleviating oxidative stress. Moreover, the neuroprotective effect of galectin-1 in cerebral ischemia could be related to its anti-oxidative stress effect.

Abstract
Binary SiO2-CaO mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) are multifunctional biomaterials able to promote osteogenic, angiogenic, and immunomodulatory activities. MBGNs have been applied in a variety of tissue regeneration strategies. However, MBGNs lack strong antibacterial activity and current strategies (loading of antibacterial ions or antibiotics) toward enhanced antibacterial activity may cause cytotoxicity or antibiotic resistance. Here we engineered MBGNs using bacteriophages (phages) to enhance the antibacterial activity. Salmonella Typhimurium (S. T) phage PFPV25.1 that can infect Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain LT2 was used as a model phage to engineer MBGNs. MBGNs were first modified with amine groups to enhance the affinity between phages and MBGNs surfaces. Afterward, the physicochemical and antibacterial activity of phage-engineered MBGNs was evaluated. The results showed that S. T phage PFPV25.1 was successfully bound onto MBGNs surfaces without losing their bioactivity. A higher quantity of phages could be bounded onto amine-functionalized MBGNs than onto non-functionalized MBGNs. Phages on amine-functionalized MBGNs exhibited higher antibacterial activity. The stability test showed that phages could remain on amine-functionalized MBGNs for over 28 days. This work provides valuable information on developing phage-modified MBGNs as a new and effective antibacterial system for biomedical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Dendritic cell (DC)-based immunotherapy is a promising approach to treat cancer. However, key aspects governing the reproducible manufacturing of high-quality DC remain incompletely defined. Here, we show that the time window between leukapheresis and DC manufacturing is critical. METHODS Transcriptomic profiling by RNA-seq was used to unbiasedly characterize cellular states during each step of DC manufacturing process, and functional assays were used to determine the anti-tumor activities of DC. RESULTS During preclinical development of a DC-based cytotherapy platform, CUD-002 (NCT05270720), we found that DC quality varied among different batches, even though commonly used DC maturation markers CD80, CD83 and CD86 were indistinguishable. Multivariate analysis indicated that DC quality was negatively associated with the shipping time from the leukapheresis site to the manufacturing center. To investigate the potential effect of shipping time, we stored leukapheresis materials from three donors for 0, 1, 2 or 3 days before DC manufacturing. For each step, we carried out RNA-seq analysis to unbiasedly characterize cellular states. Integrated bioinformatic analyses indicated that longer storage time reduced the expression of several transcription factors to attenuate interferon pathways. CONCLUSIONS Consistently, we found that 3-day storage of leukapheresis materials significantly lowered the efficiency to generate DC but also impaired DC responses to inflammatory signals, resulting in inferior antigen-presentation and cytotoxic T-cell activities. Thus, we recommend using leukapheresis materials within 48 h to manufacture therapeutic DCs.

Abstract
Ever-growing demands for zinc-air batteries (ZABs) call for the development of advanced electrocatalysts. Single-atom catalysts (SACs), particularly those for isolating non-noble metals (NBMs), are attracting great interest due to their merits of low cost, high atom utilization efficiency, structural tunability, and extraordinary activity. Rational design of advanced NBM SACs relies heavily on an in-depth understanding of reaction mechanisms. To gain a better understanding of the reaction mechanisms of oxygen electrocatalysis in ZABs and guide the design and optimization of more efficient NBM SACs, we herein organize a comprehensive review by summarizing the fundamental concepts in the field of ZABs and the recent advances in the reported NBM SACs. Moreover, the selection of NBM elements and supports of SACs and some effective strategies for enhancing the electrochemical performance of ZABs are illustrated in detail. Finally, the challenges and future direction in this field of ZABs are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND KRASG12C inhibitors (KRASG12Ci) AMG510 and MRTX849 have shown promising efficacy in clinical trials and been approved for the treatment of KRASG12C-mutant cancers. However, the emergence of therapy-related drug resistance limits their long-term potential. This study aimed to identify the critical mediators and develop overcoming strategies. METHODS By using RNA sequencing, RT-qPCR and immunoblotting, we identified and validated the upregulation of c-Myc activity and the amplification of the long noncoding RNA ST8SIA6-AS1 in KRASG12Ci-resistant cells. The regulatory axis ST8SIA6-AS1/Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1)/c-Myc was investigated by bioinformatics, RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization, RNA immunoprecipitation, RNA pull-down and chromatin immunoprecipitation. Gain/loss-of-function assays, cell viability assay, xenograft models, and IHC staining were conducted to evaluate the anti-cancer effects of co-inhibition of ST8SIA6-AS1/PLK1 pathway and KRAS both in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS KRASG12Ci sustainably decreased c-Myc levels in responsive cell lines but not in cell lines with intrinsic or acquired resistance to KRASG12Ci. PLK1 activation contributed to this ERK-independent c-Myc stability, which in turn directly induced PLK1 transcription, forming a positive feedback loop and conferring resistance to KRASG12Ci. ST8SIA6-AS1 was found significantly upregulated in resistant cells and facilitated the proliferation of KRASG12C-mutant cancers. ST8SIA6-AS1 bound to Aurora kinase A (Aurora A)/PLK1 and promoted Aurora A-mediated PLK1 phosphorylation. Concurrent targeting of KRAS and ST8SIA6-AS1/PLK1 signaling suppressed both ERK-dependent and -independent c-Myc expression, synergistically led to cell death and tumor regression and overcame KRASG12Ci resistance. CONCLUSIONS Our study deciphers that the axis of ST8SIA6-AS1/PLK1/c-Myc confers both intrinsic and acquired resistance to KRASG12Ci and represents a promising therapeutic target for combination strategies with KRASG12Ci in the treatment of KRASG12C-mutant cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Caspase 6 is an essential regulator in innate immunity, inflammasome activation and host defense. We aimed to characterize the causal mechanism of Caspase 6 in liver sterile inflammatory injury. METHODS Human liver tissues were harvested from patients undergoing ischemia-related hepatectomy to evaluate Caspase 6 expression. Subsequently, we created Caspase 6-knockout (Caspase 6KO) mice to analyze roles and molecular mechanisms of macrophage Caspase 6 in murine models of liver ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury. RESULTS In human liver biopsies, Caspase 6 expression was positively correlated with more severe histopathological injury and higher serum ALT/AST level at one day postoperatively. Moreover, Caspase 6 was mainly elevated in macrophages but not hepatocytes in ischemic livers. Unlike in controls, the Caspase 6-deficient livers were protected against IR injury, as evidenced by inhibition of inflammation, oxidative stress and iron overload. Disruption of macrophage NF-κB essential modulator (NEMO) in Caspase 6-deficient livers deteriorated liver inflammation and ferroptosis. Mechanistically, Caspase 6 deficiency spurred NEMO-mediated IκBα phosphorylation in macrophage. Then phosphorylated-inhibitor of NF-κBα (p-IκBα) co-localized with receptor-interacting serine/ threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) in the cytoplasm to degradate RIPK1 under inflammatory conditions. The disruption of RIPK1-IκBα interaction preserved RIPK1 degradation, triggering downstream apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) phosphorylation and inciting NIMA-related kinase 7/NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NEK7/NLRP3) activation in macrophages. Moreover, ablation of macrophage RIPK1 or ASK1 diminished NEK7/NLRP3-driven inflammatory response and dampened hepatocyte ferroptosis by reducing HMGB1 release from macrophages. CONCLUSIONS Our findings underscore a novel mechanism of Caspase 6 mediated RIPK1-IκBα interaction in regulating macrophage NEK7/NLRP3 function and hepatocytes ferroptosis, which provides therapeutic targets for clinical liver IR injury.

Abstract
The intercalation of H into Pd-based nanocatalysts plays a crucial role in optimizing the catalytic performance by tailoring the structural and electronic properties. We herein present a comprehensive review about the recent progress of interstitial hydrogen atom modified Pd-based nanocatalysts for various energy-related electrocatalytic reactions. Before systematically manifesting the great potential of Pd-based hydrides for electrocatalytic applications, we have briefly illustrated the synthesis strategies and corresponding mechanisms for the Pd-based hydrides. This is followed by a comprehensive discussion about the fundamentals and functions of H intercalation in tailoring their physicochemical and electrochemical properties. Subsequently, we focus on the widespread application of Pd-based hydrides for electrocatalytic reactions, with the emphasis on the role of H intercalation played in determining electrocatalytic performance. Finally, the future direction and perspectives regarding the development of more efficient Pd-based hydrides are also manifested.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is a pivotal factor for regulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication, transcription and biogenesis. Previous studies have reported that cytosolic mtDNA stress can lead to cardiomyocytes pyroptosis, which is characterized by inflammasome formation. In this study, we attempted to investigate the mechanism of TFAM regulate cardiomyocytes pyroptosis induced by ionizing radiation. MATERIALS/METHODS The peripheral blood serum of patients with esophageal cancer before and after definitive chemoradiotherapy was collected for Luminex multiplex cytokine assays. C57BL/6 mice were irradiated with the whole heart using small animal radiation research platform (SARRP) to construct a radiation-induced myocardial damage (RIMD) mouse model, and the ventricular function was evaluated using 9.4T Bruker magnetic resonance (MR) scanner. The function changes of cardiomyocytes exposed to radiation were observed in vitro and in vivo after knocking out GSDMD. Furthermore, the changes of mitochondrial function, the levels of cytosolic mtDNA, and the protein levels of NF-kB and pyroptosis pathway in irradiated cardiomyocytes were analyzed by knockdown and overexpression of TFAM in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS By multifactor cytokine assays we found that pyroptosis related IL-1β and IL-18 were significantly increased in patients with high mean heart dose (MHD) after radiotherapy, while those with low MHD were not significantly increased after radiotherapy. Next, we successfully constructed the RIMD mouse model using a single heart irradiation of 20 Gy. We found that the gene expression of pyroptosis pathway was significantly up-regulated after cardiac irradiation by myocardial tissue transcriptomic sequencing. Compared with wild-type (WT) mice, cardiac systolic function of Gsdmd-/- mice was significantly improved at 1, 2, 6, 12, and 24 weeks after heart irradiation. In vitro, we also demonstrated increased viability of irradiated cardiomyocytes by knocking out GSDMD. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed the expression of TFAM decreased after radiation. By overexpression of TFAM, we found that irradiated cardiomyocytes showed improved mitochondrial function, decreased release of mtDNA into cytoplasm through mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTPs), decreased binding of cytosolic mtDNA to TLR9, and decreased expression of NF-kB and pyroptosis pathway proteins. Dual luciferase gene reporter assays and Chromatin immunoprecipitation (CHIP) assay confirmed that p65 could bind the NLRP3 promoter region. In addition, we found that ventricular function deteriorated and improved in mice with knockdown and overexpression of TFAM through adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9), respectively. CONCLUSION Our study indicated that TFAM regulate irradiated cardiomyocytes pyroptosis through mtDNA/TLR9/NF-kB pathway. We provide a novel mechanism of RIMD, revealing an underappreciated intervention target for RIMD.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) CAPSTONE-1, a phase 3 trial, showed that SHR-1316 (PD-L1 antibody) combined with standard first-line chemotherapy could prolong overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with ES-SCLC. The CREST trial reported consolidative thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) of 30 Gy in 10 fractions provided a 10% 2-year OS benefit and more intensive TRT should be investigated in ES-SCLC. In the era of immunotherapy, the role of TRT also needs further exploration. Therefore, we designed this clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1316 plus first-line chemotherapy followed by TRT combined with SHR-1316. MATERIALS/METHODS Key inclusion criteria were pts aged 18-75 years, with previously untreated histologically or cytologically confirmed ES-SCLC, and an ECOG performance status of 0-1. Eligible pts would receive 4∼6 cycles of SHR-1316 (20mg/kg, D1, q3w) combined with EP/EC (etoposide, 100mg/m2, D1-5, q3w and cisplatin, 75mg/m², D1-3, q3w or carboplatin, AUC = 5, D1, q3w), followed by SHR-1316 combined with TRT (≥3 Gy*10 f or ≥2 Gy*25 f, involved-field irradiation), and then the maintenance therapy with SHR-1316 until disease progression or intolerable adverse events (AEs). The main endpoints included ORR, PFS and safety. RESULTS From October 2020 to January 2023, 33 pts received SHR-1316 and sequential consolidative TRT. Among them, 19 pts received high-dose TRT (>3 Gy*10 f or ≥2 Gy*25 f) and 14 pts received low-dose TRT (≤3 Gy*10 f or<2 Gy*25 f). The median age was 62 (range: 38-73). Most pts were male (28, 84.8%), former smokers (22, 66.7%) with an ECOG performance status 1 (32, 97%). Ten (30.3%) pts were diagnosed with brain metastasis and 10 (30.3%) pts had liver metastasis at baseline. At the data cutoff date, 9 pts remained on treatment, the average number of treatment cycles was 9.2. 33 pts had at least one 1 post-treatment tumor assessment. The confirmed ORR and DCR were 90.9% (30/33) and 100% (33/33) in all pts, were 89.5% (17/19) and 100% (19/19) in high-dose TRT group, and were 92.9% (13/14) and 100% (14/14) in low-dose TRT group. The median PFS was 10.2(CI: 5.8∼14.7) months in all pts, was 7 (CI: 3.8∼10.2) months in high-dose TRT group and 10.4 (CI: 8.4∼12.3) months in low-dose TRT group. AEs occurred in 27 (81.8%) pts and grade 3 or 4 AEs occurred in 20 (60.6%) pts. The most common grade 3 or 4 AEs included neutropenia (15, 45.5%), leukopenia (8, 24.2%), lymphocytopenia (5, 15.2%), pneumonia (3, 9.1%), anemia (3, 9.1%) and thrombocytopenia (2, 6.1%). CONCLUSION SHR-1316 plus chemotherapy and sequential TRT as first-line therapy for ES-SCLC showed promising efficacy and acceptable safety. There is no significant difference between high-dose and low-dose TRT groups in terms of safety and efficacy according to current data.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To evaluate the automatic optimization performance and clinical feasibility of the Intelligent Optimization Engine (IOE) of Ethos online adaptive radiotherapy platform. MATERIALS/METHODS Eleven patients with cervical cancer treated with Halcyon accelerator were retrospectively selected. All the patients manually planned with four full arc volume rotating intensity modulated radiotherapy (VMAT) (Manual-4Arc), and the prescription dose was 45 Gy/25F. All patient images and structures were imported into Ethos simulator, and clinical goals were added appropriately based on clinical requirements. The target coverage was normalized to 95%. 7F, 9F, 12F IMRT plans and 2Arc, 3Arc VMAT plans were automatically generated by IOE. Dosimetric index comparisons were made among the Manual-4Arc plans and five group IOE generated plan to evaluate the automatic optimization performance of IOE. RESULTS In terms of hot dose area, for PTV, D1% of IMRT-12F plans was the lowest, and there were significant differences between IMRT-12F plans and Manual-4Arc plans (46.936 ± 0.241 vs 48.639 ± 2.395, p = 0.004); In terms of target coverage, the CTVs of all groups meet clinical requirements. Although the Ethos online adaptive plans have been normalized during planning, the PTV coverage is slightly insufficient (12F: 94.913 ± 0.154; 9F: 94.585 ± 1.148). For OARs close to target, such as bladder, V30Gy, V40Gy and Dmean have significant differences among the six group plans. The order of bladder dose is basically followed by IMRT-12F CONCLUSION The plans automatically generated by Ethos IOE can achieve similar performance as the manual plan, and the automatically generated IMRT-12F and 9F plans are preferred for clinical use.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The study is aim to investigate whether Deep-inspirational breath-hold (DIBH), compared with free breathing (FB), could provide a short-term cardiac benefit in patients with early left breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery combined whole breast radiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 78 patients with early stage left breast cancer treated with radiotherapy between 2021-2022 after breast-conserving surgery were enrolled. Among them, 32 cases were treated with DIBH technique and 46 cases were treated with free breathing. Patients with previous cardiac disease such as coronary artery disease were excluded. We performed myocardial enzymes, ECG, and ECHO in all patients within 2 weeks before, during, and 6 months after radiotherapy. The results of the two groups were compared using nonparametric tests and chi-square tests, and P < 0.05 indicated statistical significance. Where subclinical acute cardiac injury was defined as new above-normal myocardial enzymes and/or electrocardiographic ST-T or T-wave changes and/or ECHO abnormalities after the start of radiotherapy. RESULTS The median follow-up of patients was 6 months and the mean age of patients was 52.3 years for FB and 44.9 years for DIBH. There were no significant differences in staging, molecular subtype, chemotherapy and endocrine therapy history. The proportion of subclinical acute cardiac injury was smaller in the DIBH group compared to the FB group (DIBH = 31/46 and FB = 28/32, p = 0.042). The most sensitive of the subclinical acute cardiac injury events were detected by myocardial enzymes rising, with cTnI (p = 0.034) and NT-proBNP (p = 0.023) appearing significantly lower in the DIBH patients during radiotherapy. The difference of cTnI between 2 groups at 6 months after radiotherapy became non-significant. In contrast, CK-MB was higher in DIBH compared with FB only 6 months after radiotherapy (p = 0.006). The differences in ECG and ECHO were not significant between the two groups. CONCLUSION After breast-conserving surgery combined with radiotherapy for left early breast cancer, DIBH compared to FB reduces the proportion of acute subclinical cardiac injury that occurs with the most sensitive changes in myocardial enzymes. Subsequent studies will explore the relationship between the short-term subclinical injury and irradiated dose, as well as long term cardiac injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To investigate the predictive value of changes in myocardial 18F-FDG uptake for major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in locally advanced esophageal cancer patients receiving definitive radiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS Between August 2012 and January 2018, 400 patients with stage II-III esophageal cancer receiving definitive radiotherapy at two institutions were divided into the training (n = 240) and external validation cohorts (n = 160). All patients underwent FDG-PET imaging within 1 week before treatment and 3 months after treatment. Myocardium delineation was performed by Carimas software (version 2.10) based on the AHA 17-segment model. When contouring the left ventricle, the myocardium was automatically divided into basal (segments 1-6), middle (segments 7-12), and apical (segments 13-16) regions, and the mean dose and FDG uptake parameters of each region were obtained by Carimas. Our primary endpoint was MACEs. Patient clinicopathologic factors, dosimetric parameters for the whole heart and cardiac substructures, and myocardial changes within the three regions on 18F-FDG PET were utilized to seek the best predictive models for cardiotoxicity. To avoid multicollinearity between dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters, we selected the variables with the lowest Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) value from the DVH parameters of the same cardiac structure for the actual modeling procedure. Competing risk analysis and Cox regressions analysis were performed. The predictive performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and Brier score. RESULTS At a median follow-up interval of 78 months, 28 patients (11.7%) developed MACEs. The basal region of the myocardium received the highest radiation dose, followed by the middle and the apex region. The basal myocardial SUVmax and SUVmean significantly increased after radiotherapy while the apical and middle myocardial SUVmax and SUVmean not significantly increased. In univariate analysis, age, pre-existing cardiac disease, changes in pre- and post-treatment basal myocardial SUVmax and SUVmean (∆SUVmax and ∆SUVmean), and dosimetric parameters for MHD, mean LCX, mean LAD, and mean LV dose were associated with an increased hazard of MACEs. Multivariate analysis showed that basal ∆SUVmean retained significance after adjusting for age, pre-existing cardiac disease, and dosimetric parameters for whole heart and cardiac substructures. The AUCs and Brier scores demonstrated favorable predictive accuracies of the model's integrating variables with significant difference in multivariate analysis when predicting MACEs in the training and validation cohorts. CONCLUSION ∆SUVmean was an independent indicator of MACE in locally advanced esophageal cancer patients receiving definitive radiotherapy. Changes in basal myocardial FDG uptake is a promising biomaker for predicting radiation-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The CREST study showed that the addition of thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) could improve the survival of extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), but whether TRT can bring survival benefit in the era of immunotherapy is controversial. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of adding TRT to the combination of PD-L1 inhibitors and chemotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS Thepatients who received PD-L1 inhibitors combined with platinum-based chemotherapy as the first-line treatment of ES-SCLC from January 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. According to whether they received TRT, they were divided into two groups, and the follow-up analysis was performed. Propensity score matching (PSM) in with a 1:1 ratio was performed to balance the baseline characteristics of the two cohorts. The endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and OS. RESULTS A total of 211 patients with ES-SCLC were enrolled, of whom 70 (33.2%) patients received standard therapy plus TRT as first-line treatment, and 141 (66.8%) patients in the control group received PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy. After PSM, a total of 65 pairs of patients were enrolled in the analysis. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups of patients who received TRT and those who did not. In all patients, the median PFS (mPFS) in the TRT group and the non-TRT groupwere 9.5 months and 7.2 months, respectively, with HR = 0.60 (95% CI 0.41-0.87, p = 0.007). The median OS (mOS) in the TRT group was also significantly longer than that in the non-TRT group (24.1 months vs. 18.5 months, HR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.32-0.85, p = 0.009). Multivariable analysis showed that baseline liver metastasis and bone metastasis were independent prognostic factors for OS. In terms of safety, immunotherapy combined with thoracic radiotherapy increased the incidence of treatment-related pneumonia (p<0.001), most of which were grade 1-2. CONCLUSION This real-world study shows that adding TRT to durvalumab or atezolizumab plus chemotherapy significantly improves survival in ES-SCLC. It leads to more treatment-related pneumonia, but most of them can be relieved after symptomatic treatment. This treatment model deserves to be explored in prospective clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) RNA editing is a common posttranslational mechanism for generating genomic diversity by modifying selected RNA sequences without altering the genome. A new understanding of cancer therapy can be enhanced by the discovery of ADAR1 in the control of signal transduction pathways. However, the study of the biological effects of ADAR1 in radioresistance of esophageal cancer is not very deep. MATERIALS/METHODS The TCGA data sets were used to explore the correlations between ADAR1 and prognosis in esophageal cancer. Two pairs of ADAR1 gene siRNA fragments (siADAR1-1 and siADAR1-2) were designed and transiently transfected into KYSE410 cells and KYSE410-RT cells. The expression of ADAR1 was detected by RT-PCR and WB. Colony formation assay was used to evaluate the radiosensitivity. Apoptosis was measured using a flow cytometric apoptosis assay. Furthermore, transcriptome sequencing was performed to elucidate the pathways regulated by ADAR1. RESULTS In this study, we found that ADAR1 is overexpressed in esophageal tumors and is associated with poor prognosis in bioinformatics analysis. Colony formation experiment showed that siRNA-mediated depletion of ADAR1 in KYSE410 cells could inhibit cell proliferation and reduce radiosensitivity significantly. Consistently results were showed in KYSE410-RT cells. Mechanism studies revealed loss of ADAR1 induced cell apoptosis and radiotherapy could enhance this process. Transcriptomic data indicated that ADAR1 could regulate apoptosis through the NF-kB pathway. CONCLUSION RNA editing was found to be involved in the regulation of radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer and loss of ADAR1 can cause cell apoptosis though NF-kB pathway. A better understanding of A-to-I RNA editing and its oncogenic mechanisms may facilitate the development of radiotherapy in esophageal cancer.

Abstract
Weight gain is a common harmful side effect of atypical antipsychotics used for schizophrenia treatment. Conversely, treatment with the novel phosphodiesterase-10A (PDE10A) inhibitor MK-8189 in clinical trials led to significant weight reduction, especially in patients with obesity. This study aimed to understand and describe the mechanism underlying this observation, which is essential to guide clinical decisions. We hypothesized that PDE10A inhibition causes beiging of white adipose tissue (WAT), leading to weight loss. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods were developed, validated, and applied in a diet-induced obesity mouse model treated with a PDE10A inhibitor THPP-6 or vehicle for measurement of fat content and vascularization of adipose tissue. Treated mice showed significantly lower fat fraction in white and brown adipose tissue, and increased perfusion and vascular density in WAT versus vehicle, confirming the hypothesis, and matching the effect of CL-316,243, a compound known to cause adipose tissue beiging. The in vivo findings were validated by qPCR revealing upregulation of Ucp1 and Pcg1-α genes, known markers of WAT beiging, and angiogenesis marker VegfA in the THPP-6 group. This work provides a detailed understanding of the mechanism of action of PDE10A inhibitor treatment on adipose tissue and body weight and will be valuable to guide both the use of MK-8189 in schizophrenia and the potential application of the target for weight loss indication.

Abstract
We review comprehensive observations of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) wave-driven energetic electron precipitation using data collected by the energetic electron detector on the Electron Losses and Fields InvestigatioN (ELFIN) mission, two polar-orbiting low-altitude spinning CubeSats, measuring 50-5000 keV electrons with good pitch-angle and energy resolution. EMIC wave-driven precipitation exhibits a distinct signature in energy-spectrograms of the precipitating-to-trapped flux ratio: peaks at >0.5 MeV which are abrupt (bursty) (lasting ∼17 s, or Δ L ∼ 0.56 ) with significant substructure (occasionally down to sub-second timescale). We attribute the bursty nature of the precipitation to the spatial extent and structuredness of the wave field at the equator. Multiple ELFIN passes over the same MLT sector allow us to study the spatial and temporal evolution of the EMIC wave - electron interaction region. Case studies employing conjugate ground-based or equatorial observations of the EMIC waves reveal that the energy of moderate and strong precipitation at ELFIN approximately agrees with theoretical expectations for cyclotron resonant interactions in a cold plasma. Using multiple years of ELFIN data uniformly distributed in local time, we assemble a statistical database of ∼50 events of strong EMIC wave-driven precipitation. Most reside at L ∼ 5 - 7 at dusk, while a smaller subset exists at L ∼ 8 - 12 at post-midnight. The energies of the peak-precipitation ratio and of the half-peak precipitation ratio (our proxy for the minimum resonance energy) exhibit an L -shell dependence in good agreement with theoretical estimates based on prior statistical observations of EMIC wave power spectra. The precipitation ratio's spectral shape for the most intense events has an exponential falloff away from the peak (i.e., on either side of ∼ 1.45 MeV). It too agrees well with quasi-linear diffusion theory based on prior statistics of wave spectra. It should be noted though that this diffusive treatment likely includes effects from nonlinear resonant interactions (especially at high energies) and nonresonant effects from sharp wave packet edges (at low energies). Sub-MeV electron precipitation observed concurrently with strong EMIC wave-driven >1 MeV precipitation has a spectral shape that is consistent with efficient pitch-angle scattering down to ∼ 200-300 keV by much less intense higher frequency EMIC waves at dusk (where such waves are most frequent). At ∼100 keV, whistler-mode chorus may be implicated in concurrent precipitation. These results confirm the critical role of EMIC waves in driving relativistic electron losses. Nonlinear effects may abound and require further investigation.

Abstract
Talaromycosis (TSM) is an opportunistic deep mycosis prevalent in southeast Asia and southern China, affecting HIV-positive, anti-interferon-gamma autoantibody-positive and other immunodeficiency hosts. These hosts are often co-infected with mycobacterium tuberculosis, non-tuberculosis mycobacteria, bacteria, fungi, viruses and other opportunistic infections. The clinical characteristics and the pathogenic spectrum of TSM with opportunistic infections vary with different immune states. The rates of misdiagnosis, missed diagnosis and mortality are high. This review summarized the clinical characteristics of TSM with opportunistic infections in order to improve the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
This study followed up the immune memory after 3-dose revaccination among infants with non-and low-response following primary hepatitis B (HepB) vaccination. About 120 children without self-booster doses were finally included who had anti-HBs<10 mIU/ml (anti-HBs negative) at the time of follow-up, of whom 86 children completed blood sampling and anti-HBs testing. Before the challenge dose, all 86 children were negative for anti-HBs, and the GMC of anti-HBs was<10 mIU/ml. The seropositive conversion rate of anti-HBs was 100% and the GMC of anti-HBs was 886.11 (95%CI: 678.15-1 157.84) mIU/ml after the challenge dose. Compared with those with GMC<7 mIU/ml before the challenge dose, infants with GMC>7 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.82 (0.18-1.46) (P=0.012). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at primary vaccination, infants with GMC≥1 000 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.78 (0.18-1.38)(P=0.012). The results showed a stronger immune memory was found at 9 years after revaccination among infants with non-and low-response to HepB.

Abstract
The frequency of p53 mutations in colorectal cancer (CRC) is approximately 40-50%. A variety of therapies are being developed to target tumors expressing mutant p53. However, potential therapeutic targets for CRC expressing wild-type p53 are rare. In this study, we show that METTL14 is transcriptionally activated by wild-type p53 and suppresses tumor growth only in p53-wild-type (p53-WT) CRC cells. METTL14 deletion promotes both AOM/DSS and AOM-induced CRC growth in mouse models with the intestinal epithelial cell-specific knockout of METTL14. Additionally, METTL14 restrains aerobic glycolysis in p53-WT CRC, by repressing SLC2A3 and PGAM1 expression via selectively promoting m6 A-YTHDF2-dependent pri-miR-6769b/pri-miR-499a processing. Biosynthetic mature miR-6769b-3p and miR-499a-3p decrease SLC2A3 and PGAM1 levels, respectively, and suppress malignant phenotypes. Clinically, METTL14 only acts as a beneficial prognosis factor for the overall survival of p53-WT CRC patients. These results uncover a new mechanism for METTL14 inactivation in tumors and, most importantly, reveal that the activation of METTL14 is a critical mechanism for p53-dependent cancer growth inhibition, which could be targeted for therapy in p53-WT CRC.

Abstract
TMB-5 nucleating agent (NA) treated by different solvents were used as the β-NA of iPP. The effects of temperature on the crystalline structure of different iPP/TMB-5, as well as the crystallization and melting behaviors were investigated. It was found that strong polar solvent treated TMB-5 (TMB-5DMSO and TMB-5DMF) could induce more β-crystal at high Tc = 140 °C than the other TMB-5 NAs, while the β-crystal inducing efficiency of untreated TMB-5 (TMB-5UT) and non-polar solvent treated TMB-5 (TMB-5LP) is seriously reduced at high Tc = 140 °C. TMB-5DMSO can induce a high and stable content of β-crystal with Kβ = 83-94% within Tc = 90-140 °C, and TMB-5ODCB can induce a high content of β-crystal with Kβ > 91.3% within Tc = 90-130 °C. TMB-5DMF is the most temperature-sensitive one, but can induce a high fraction of β-crystal with Kβ > 92% both at low Tc = 90 °C and high Tc = 140 °C. High temperature pre-crystallization at Tpc = 150 °C tremendously reduces the β-crystal inducing efficiency of all TMB-5 NAs. TMB-5UT and TMB-5LP exhibit higher nucleating efficiency than TMB-5DMSO, TMB-5DMF and TMB-5ODCB. During the non-isothermal crystallization process, TMB-5UT induced β-crystal possesses higher structural perfection and stability, while TMB-5LP is more likely to induce α-crystal with considerable quantity and stability. The structural perfection and stability of TMB-5 induced β-crystal can be enhanced with appropriate increasing of Tc.

Abstract
Elymus sibiricus L. is a perennial forage species that has potential to serve as a forage source in livestock grazing systems. However, E. sibiricus has been shown to have a rapid and substantial reduction of aboveground biomass and seed yield after 3 or 4 years and an accelerated aging process. To determine possible aging mechanisms, we planted E. sibiricus seeds in triplicate blocks in 2012, 2015, and 2016, respectively, and harvested samples of leaves and roots at the jointing and heading stages in 2018 and 2019 to determine oxidative indices and endogenous hormones. The fresh aboveground biomass of 4- and 5-year old plants declined by 34.2% and 52.4% respectively compared with 3-year old plants, and the seed yield declined by 12.7% and 34.1%, respectively. The water content in leaves was 51.7%, 43.3%, and 35.6%, and net photosynthesis was 7.73, 6.35, and 2.08 µmol/m2·s in 3-, 4-, and 5-year old plants, respectively. The superoxide anion radical generation rate in leaves and roots did not show any aging pattern. There was a non-significant increase in malondialdehyde concentration with plant age, particularly in leaves and roots at the heading stage in 2019. The superoxide dismutase activity showed a declining trend with age of plant roots at the jointing stage in both 2018 and 2019. The peroxidase activity declined with plant age in both leaves and roots, for example, and the catalase activity in roots 4- and 7-year old plants declined by 13.8% and 0.85%, respectively, compared to 3-year old plants at the heading stage in 2018. Therefore, the reduced capacity of the antioxidant system may lead to oxidative stress during plant aging process. Overall, the concentrations of plant hormones, auxin (IAA), gibberellin (GA), zeatin (ZT), and abscisic acid (ABA) were significantly lower in roots than in leaves. The IAA concentration in leaves and roots exhibited different patterns with plant age. The ZT concentrations in leaves of 3-year old plants was 2.39- and 2.62-fold of those in 4- and 7-year old plants, respectively at the jointing stage, and in roots, the concentration declined with plant age. The changes in the GA concentration with plant age varied between the physiological stages and between years. The ABA concentrations appeared to increase with plant age, particularly in leaves. In conclusion, the aging process of E. sibiricus was apparently associated with an increase in oxidative stress, a decrease of ZT and an increase of ABA, particularly in roots. These findings highlight the effects of plant age on the antioxidant and endogenous hormone activity of E. sibiricus. However, these plant age-related trends showed variations between plant physiological stages and between harvest years that needs to be researched in the future to develop strategies to manage this forage species.

Abstract
In order to investigate the optimization of the performance and structure of a tungsten crucible CVD reactor, the CFD simulation method was used in this paper to simulate the internal flow of the tungsten crucible CVD reactor. The velocity distribution and temperature distribution in the reactor were obtained. The simulation results show that the axial and radial heat convection will occur between the susceptor and the outer wall surface, but the axial heat convection is more intense. Moreover, it was found that the temperature distribution in the CVD reactor was more uniform and reasonable when the upper gas inlet was applied, which was beneficial to the reduction and deposition processes of tungsten. The molar ratio of H2 to WF6 has a great influence on the deposition rate of tungsten, and excess H2 is not conducive to the deposition of tungsten. Thermal radiation has a great influence on the temperature distribution of CVD reactors. It cannot be neglected.

Abstract
To explore highly selective targeting molecules of colorectal cancer (CRC) is a challenge. We previously identified a twelve-amino acid peptide (LPKTVSSDMSLN, namely P-LPK) by phage display technique which may specifically binds to CRC cells. Here we show that P-LPK selectively bind to a panel of human CRC cell lines and CRC tissues. In vivo, Gallium-68 (68Ga) labeled P-LPK exhibits selective accumulation at tumor sites. Then, we designed a peptide-conjugated drug comprising P-LPK and camptothecin (CPT) (namely P-LPK-CPT), and found P-LPK-CPT significantly inhibits tumor growth with fewer side effects in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, through co-immunoprecipitation and molecular docking experiment, the glutamine transporter solute carrier 1 family member 5 (SLC1A5) was identified as the possible target of P-LPK. The binding ability of P-LPK and SLC1A5 is verified by surface plasmon resonance and immunofluorescence. Taken together, P-LPK-CPT is highly effective for CRC and deserves further development as a promising anti-tumor therapeutic for CRC, especially SLC1A5-high expression type. A peptide that specifically targets amino acid transporter SLC1A5 in colorectal cancer cells is identified and conjugated with camptothecin to show selective cytotoxicity to colorectal cancer cells in preclinical models.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to examine the independent roles of various childhood maltreatment (CM) subtypes in the development of depression; quantify the joint mediation effect of social support and mastery in the association between subtypes of CM and depression and examine the additional contribution of mastery beyond the effect that is operating through social support to this relationship. METHODS Data analysed were from the Zone d'Épidémiologie Psychiatrique du Sud-Ouest de Montréal, an ongoing longitudinal population-based study. In total, 1351 participants with complete information on the studied variables were included. The propensity score matching and inverse-probability weighted regression adjustment estimation methods were used to minimise the potential confounding in the relationship between CM and major depression. We then used inverse odds ratio-weighted estimation to estimate the direct effects of maltreatment and indirect effects of social support and mastery. RESULTS We found that exposures to all maltreatment subtypes increased the risk of subsequent depression. The joint mediating effect of social support and mastery explained 37.63-46.97% of the association between different maltreatment subtypes and depression. The contribution of these two mediators differed by maltreatment subtypes, with social support being the major contributor to the mediating effect. CONCLUSIONS The findings of the study not only provide scientific evidence on the importance of psychosocial attributes in the development of major depression but also suggest that prevention and invention strategies should focus on these psychosocial attributes to effectively break the vicious cycle of CM on major depression.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is one of the main treatments for colorectal cancer, but systemic toxicity severely limits its clinical use. Packaging hydrophobic chemotherapeutic drugs in targeted nanoparticles greatly improve their efficacy and reduce side effects. We previously identified a novel colorectal cancer specific binding peptide P-LPK (LPKTVSSDMSLN) from phage display peptide library. Here we designed a self-assembled paclitaxel (PTX)-loaded nanoparticle (LPK-PTX NPs). LPK-PTX NPs displayed a superior intracellular internalization and improved tumor cytotoxicity in vitro. Cy5.5-labeled LPK-PTX NPs showed much higher tumor accumulation in colorectal cancer-bearing mice. Furthermore, LPK-PTX NPs exhibit enhanced antitumor activity and decreased systemic toxicity in colorectal cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX) model. The excellent in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy proves the improved targeting drug delivery, suggesting that peptide P-LPK has potential to provide a novel approach for enhanced drug delivery with negligible systemic toxicity.

Abstract
Background: We aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral flexible ureteroscopic incision and drainage with holmium laser in the treatment of parapelvic renal cysts. Materials and Methods: Between October 2017 and April 2021, the clinical data of 65 patients with parapelvic renal cysts were evaluated retrospectively. Thirty-one patients with parapelvic cysts (Group 1) underwent a transurethral flexible ureteroscopic incision and drainage with a holmium laser, whereas the other 34 patients (Group 2) underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic unroofing. The patients' clinical features were documented. The surgery time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, complications and cyst size were recorded and statistically assessed one year following the procedure. Results: All of the patients were successfully treated with flexible ureteroscopic incision and drainage or retroperitoneal laparoscopic unroofing. In terms of clinical parameters, such as age, gender, BMI, location, cyst size, and Bosniak classification of renal cysts, no statistically significant difference was detected between Groups 1 and 2. Compared to the control group (Group 2), Group 1 demonstrated a shorter surgery duration, less intraoperative blood loss, and a shorter hospital stay (p < 0.001). However, no significant differences in complications and cyst size were observed between the two groups one year after the surgery (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Transurethral flexible ureteroscopic incision and drainage with holmium laser in the treatment of parapelvic renal cysts has obvious advantages over traditional surgery, and is worthy of advancement and application, but its long-term effect needs further follow-up studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy recommends 4L Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) as the standard regimen for bowel preparation (BP). The current study compared 3L and 4L PEG with regard to their effectiveness, tolerability, and safety among Chinese patients to identify the best bowel cleansing method for this population. METHODS The study employed a prospective, observer-blinded, randomized and controlled design in a high-volume endoscopic center. Consecutive patients undergoing colonoscopy were randomly assigned (1:1) to the 3L-PEG or 4L-PEG group. The quality of bowel cleansing, procedure time, adenoma detection rate (ADR), patient tolerance, and adverse events were compared. RESULTS A total of 330 patients were included in the study. After exclusions, 160 cases in the 3L-PEG group and 158 cases in the 4L-PEG group were included in the final analysis. The quality of bowel cleansing (Boston Bowel Preparation Scale) for both the whole intestine and each segment had no significant differences between the groups (P > 0.05). No significant differences were found with regard to procedure time or ADR. The incidences of adverse events such as nausea (P = 0.001), vomiting (P = 0.002), and bloating (P < 0.001) were lower in the 3L-PEG group. Moreover, there was a higher rate of satisfaction in the 3L-PEG group than in the 4L-PEG group (P = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS 3L-PEG bowel cleansing represents an optimal alternative to a 4L-PEG preparation, showing similar efficacy and superior levels of satisfaction, acceptability, and safety among users. We recommend 3L PEG as a routine regimen in the clinical setting for Chinese patients. (ClinicalTrials.gov registration number: NCT03356015, registered in 29 November, 2017, https://www.

Abstract
Objective: Assess the 10-year Immune persistence and the predictors after primary vaccination hepatitis B vaccine (HepB) among normal and high-responder infants. Methods: A total of 1 838 Infants of 7-12 months old located in Jinan, Weifang, Yantai and Weihai of Shandong Province who were induced normal or high antibody response (anti-HBs titer ≥ 100 mIU/ml) after primary vaccination (three dose with 0-1-6 procedure) with 5 μg recombinant HepB among newborns were included in the study, in 2009. 3 ml of venous blood samples were collected at baseline survey (T0) and antibodies against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs), antibody against hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were detected using chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) method. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect information including the infant's age, sex, birth weight, premature birth, birth number, delivery location and mother's HBV infection status. In 2014 (followed up for 5 years) and in 2019 (followed up for 10 years) (T1), 2 ml of venous blood samples were collected. Anti HBS and anti HBC were detected by CMIA method. Those with anti HBS<10 mIU/ml were detected by CMIA method. Multivariate unconditional logistic and linear regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors of anti-HBs positive rate and geometric mean concentration (GMC) at T1. Results: After 10 years follow-up, 73.94% of the subjects (1 359/1 835) finished the follow-up. 51.15% of the subjects, a total of 625 were boys. The positive rate of anti-HBs was 100% at T0 and decreased to 53.44% (95%CI: 50.59%-56.26%) at T1. The average annual decline rate of anti-HBs positive rate from T0 to T1 was 6.07%. The GMC of anti-HBs decreased from 607.89 (95%CI: 579.01-642.62) mIU/ml to 16.44 (95%CI: 15.06-18.00) mIU/ml. The average annual decline rate of anti-HBs GMC in 10-year follow-up was 30.30%. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the positive rate of anti-HBs at T1 was lower in those who did not vaccinate the first dose in time (OR=0.25, 95%CI:0.07-0.71). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at T0, those with GMC ≥ 1 000 mIU/ml had a higher positive rate of anti-HBs at T1 (OR=2.29, 95%CI:1.76-2.97). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the GMC of anti-HBs at T1 was lower in those who did not vaccinate the first dose in time (β=-0.50, 95%CI:-1.24-0.24). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at T0, those with GMC ≥ 1 000 mIU/ml had a higher GMC of anti-HBs at T1 (β=0.81, 95%CI: 0.62-1.05). Conclusion: Anti-HBs GMC decreased in 10 years after primary vaccination of 5 μg recombinant hepatitis B vaccine among normal and high-responders. The anti-HBs persistence was mainly associated with whether the first dose was vaccinated in time and the level of anti-HBs at the end of primary vaccination.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The present study was the first prospective cohort evaluated the efficacy and safety of different doses of calcitriol in XLH children. The results suggested that a dose of 40 ng/kg/day calcitriol, compared with 20 ng/kg/day, was more effective in relieving the rickets, with similar safety outcomes. Further investigations were expected to set more dose groups. INTRODUCTION Dose recommended for calcitriol in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) varies in different studies. Therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy as well as the safety of 20 ng/kg/d and 40 ng/kg/d calcitriol in Chinese XLH pediatrics population. METHODS A 2-year, randomized, open-label, prospective study recruited 68 XLH children, which were randomized to receive either 40 ng/kg/day or 20 ng/kg/day calcitriol. Efficacy endpoints were the total Thacher ricket severity score (RSS) change from baseline to month 12 and 24, the difference in serum TALP level, fasting serum phosphate level, body height Z-score, and frequency of dental abscess. Safety assessments were done using renal ultrasound nephrocalcinosis grades (0-4), fasting serum and 24 h urine calcium level, and the occurrence of hyperparathyroidism. RESULTS The decrease in the total RSS from baseline was more significant in the high-dose group at 12 (difference 0.87, p = 0.049) and 24 month (difference 1.23, p = 0.011). The serum TALP level was significantly lower in the high-dose group at 6 months. Pi level, height Z-score change, frequency of dental abscess and ratio of de novo nephrocalcinosis were comparable. A lower incidence of secondary hyperparathyroidism was seen in the high-dose group (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION For the first time in this prospective cohort, 40 ng/kg/d calcitriol was shown to be the more effective therapy in XLH children than the 20 ng/kg/d. Moreover, 40 ng/kg/d calcitriol was not associated with increasing adverse events. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT 03,820,518.

Abstract
BackgroundFor patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), delays in diagnosis and treatment can lead to permanent radiographic damage, even early in the course of disease.1 In the phase 3 FUTURE 5 study (NCT02404350), treatment with secukinumab (SEC) was shown to inhibit progression of structural damage through Week 104 in patients with PsA.2 However, the effect of disease duration on inhibition of radiographic progression by SEC has not been characterized.ObjectivesThis post hoc analysis explored relationships between time since diagnosis (TSD) of ≤1 year vs >1 year and radiographic progression among patients with PsA receiving SEC over 2 years in FUTURE 5.MethodsPatient data from FUTURE 5 were stratified by TSD ≤1 year vs >1 year and analyzed by treatment arm. Through Week 24, patients received SEC 300 or 150 mg with subcutaneous loading dose (LD), SEC 150 mg without LD, or placebo (PBO) (period 1). After Week 24, patients receiving PBO were switched to SEC 300 or 150 mg (period 2), and a protocol amendment allowed those with suboptimal clinical response to SEC 150 mg to escalate to SEC 300 mg after Week 52 per investigator judgment.2 The proportion of patients with no radiographic progression, defined as change from baseline in van der Heijde total modified Sharp score ≤0.0, was analyzed at Weeks 24, 52, and 104. Mean total Sharp score was evaluated at baseline, and mean change from baseline was determined at Weeks 24, 52, and 104.ResultsOf 996 patients with PsA included here, 217 (21.8%) had a TSD ≤1 year and 779 (78.2%) had a TSD >1 year. At baseline, patients with TSD >1 year had greater radiographic damage than patients with TSD ≤1 year as determined by mean total Sharp score (Table 1). As early as Week 24, patients receiving SEC had less radiographic progression than those receiving PBO, regardless of TSD. From Week 24 to Week 104, radiographic progression remained low among all patients receiving SEC, with a trend of least progression among patients randomized to SEC 300 mg at baseline. Regardless of treatment, patients with TSD >1 year had numerically greater radiographic progression than those patients with TSD ≤1 year. Overall, the proportion of patients receiving SEC who did not have any radiographic progression was higher than that of placebo at Week 24 irrespective of TSD, with a trend towards a higher number of non-progressors among those treated with SEC 300 mg (Figure). Patients randomized to SEC 300 mg were the least likely to experience radiographic progression through 52 weeks.Table 1.Baseline Total Sharp Score and Change From Baseline at Weeks 24, 52, and 104 by TSDTotal Sharp scoreTSD ≤1 yearTSD >1 yearPeriod 1SEC 300 mg n = 54SEC 150 mg n = 46SEC 150 mg NL n = 43PBO n = 74SEC 300 mg n = 168SEC 150 mg n = 174SEC 150 mg NL n = 179PBO n = 258Baseline, mean (SD)8.02 (20.77)8.82 (12.06)12.74 (33.67)8.84 (20.42)14.37 (24.17)14.67 (28.01)15.56 (37.52)17.34 (41.21)Week 24 change from baseline, mean (SD)0.05 (0.72)−0.08 (1.40)−0.61 (5.25)0.76 (2.05)0.09 (1.37)0.23 (1.24)0.03 (2.05)0.42 (1.56)Period 2SEC 300 mg* n = 54SEC 150 mg†n = 46SEC 150 mg NL†n = 43PBO ‒ 300 mg n = 40PBO ‒ 150 mg†n = 30SEC 300 mg* n = 168SEC 150 mg†n = 174SEC 150 mg NL†n = 179PBO ‒ 300 mg n = 113PBO ‒ 150 mg†n = 123Week 52 change from baseline, mean (SD)0.05 (0.48)−0.03 (1.22)0.35 (2.25)0.22 (0.70)0.18 (0.75)−0.07 (1.16)0.26 (1.96)0.26 (1.05)0.16 (0.94)0.40 (2.00)Week 104 change from baseline, mean (SD)0.06 (0.63)0.11 (0.99)0.20 (2.71)0.11 (0.68)−0.07 (0.50)0.11 (2.00)0.62 (2.94)0.46 (2.08)0.12 (0.90)0.81 (2.66)NL, no loading dose; PBO, placebo; SEC, secukinumab; TSD, time since diagnosis.* One outlier in the 300-mg dose group was excluded.† Includes patients who received dose escalation to SEC 300 mg after Week 52.ConclusionSEC resulted in low rates of radiographic progression through 2 years of treatment among patients in FUTURE 5, regardless of time since PsA diagnosis.References[1]Haroon M, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundBone erosion is a clinical feature of rheumatoid arthritis related to disease severity and poor functional prognosis. Excessive osteoclast differentiation and insufficient osteoblast function are the main reasons for the erosive process in RA. Our previous investigation indicated that L-arginine supplementation not only diminished arthritic inflammation in the serum-induced arthritis (K/BxN) model but also decreased inflammatory joints osteoclast numbers (1).ObjectivesIn the present study, we aim to investigate the metabolic action of L-arginine supplementation in RA, especially on periarticular bone erosion and systemic bone loss. We plan to depict the metabolic features of TNFα induced inflammatory osteoclasts after in vitro L-arginine supplementation.MethodsThree murine arthritis models (serum-induced arthritis (K/BxN) model, collagen-induced arthritis model, and hTNFtg mice model) were analysed in this study. L-arginine was supplemented within the drinking water after the onset of arthritis. Bone parameters for axial skeleton (spine) and peripheral skeleton (tibia) from the respective group were quantified by μCT. HE and TRAP staining were performed to address further the erosion area and osteoclast numbers in periarticular sites. In vitro osteoclast differentiation was conducted with or without L-arginine treatment, in the presence or not of TNFα activation. Seahorse and SCENITH analyses were adopted to delineate the metabolic features. JC-1 staining and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to depict the mitochondria metabolism. RNA-seq and mass spectrometry (MS) were performed to investigate the underlying molecular mechanism.ResultsInflammation was diminished in all three arthritis models after L-arginine supplementation with a significant reduction in arthritic score. Moreover, an amelioration of periarticular bone erosion, systemic bone loss, and decreased osteoclast numbers in periarticular sites were observed in arthritic mice after L-arginine treatment. L-arginine also inhibited osteoclastogenesis in vitro, particularly under TNFα activation. Seahorse and SCENITH analyses indicated TNFα promoted glycolysis while blocking mitochondria-driven oxidative phosphorylations (OXPHOS) in pre-osteoclasts. Meanwhile, JC-1 staining and TEM images also showed that TNFα decreased mitochondria membrane potential and prompted damage of mitochondria. Surprisingly, L-arginine rescued the TNFα inhibition of OXPHOS while promoting ATP production.RNA-seq and MS data confirmed the boost of OXPHOS after L-arginine treatment under TNFα activation. To interfere with OXPHOS, L-arginine inhibited cJun thus altered arginase-1 and arginase-2 expression. Moreover, the increased ATP in L-arginine treated cells facilitated purine metabolism, especially the production of inosine and hypoxanthine, contributing to the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. Increasing Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is essential for the production of inosine and hypoxanthine due to the decreased inhibitory regulation of the transcription factor c-Jun.ConclusionThese data strongly demonstrated that L-arginine ameliorates bone erosion in RA through metabolic reprogramming and perturbation of purine metabolism in osteoclasts. L-arginine might therefore benefit RA therapy by reducing joint inflammation and also ameliorating bone destruction.References[1]Hannemann, Nicole, et al. “Transcription factor Fra-1 targets arginase-1 to enhance macrophage-mediated inflammation in arthritis.” The Journal of clinical investigation 129.7 (2019): 2669-2684.Disclosure of InterestsShan Cao: None declared, Rui Song: None declared, Xianyi Meng: None declared, Katerina Kachler: None declared, Maximilian Fuchs: None declared, Xinyu Meng: None declared, Yixuan Li: None declared, Verena Taudte: None declared, Meik Kunz: None declared, Ursula Schloetzer-Schrehardt: None declared, Ulrike Schleicher: None declared, Xiaoxiang Chen Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Roche and Novartis, Georg Schett Speakers bureau: AbbVie, BMS, Celgene, Janssen, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Roche and UCB, Aline Bozec: None declared.

Abstract
BackgroundWhile a so-called gut-joint axis is supported by many clinical observations, the current knowledge on such axis is mostly confined to descriptive and correlative data, e.g. showing the microbiota changes are associated with arthritis. In contrast, mechanistic data on how molecular changes in the intestinal epithelium influence the development of arthritis are scarce.ObjectivesTo investigate, whether the mucosal barrier in the intestine dependent of the epithelial cell survival maintenance, influences the development of arthritis.MethodsIntestinal hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α expression was assessed before, at onset and during experimental arthritis and human rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Intestinal epithelial cell-specific HIF1α conditional knock-out mice were generated (HIF1αΔIEC) and subjected to collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). Clinical and histological courses of arthritis were recorded, and T and B cell subsets were analyzed in the gut and secondary lymphatic organs, and intestinal epithelial cells were subjected to molecular mRNA sequencing in HIF1αΔIEC and littermate control mice. Furthermore, pharmacologic HIF1α stabilization by PHD inhibitor was used for the treatment of arthritis.ResultsIntestinal HIF1α expression peaked at onset and remained high in experimental arthritis and RA. Conditionally deletion of HIF1α in gut epithelial cells strongly exacerbate arthritis and was associated with increased gut epithelial cell death, intestinal and lymphatic Th1 and Th17 activation. Mechanistically, HIF1α inhibits the transcription of necroptotic and apoptotic markers, which leads to a defect in the intestinal barrier integrity. Furthermore, treatment with HIF1α stabilization reinforced the gut epithelial cell survival and inhibited arthritis.ConclusionThese findings show that the HIF1α regulating epithelial cells survival is critical for the breakdown of the intestinal barrier function in arthritis highlighting the functional link between intestinal homeostasis and arthritis.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) experience inflammation that may result in structural damage and disability. In the phase 3 FUTURE 5 study, treatment with secukinumab (SEC) inhibited radiographic progression and led to sustained remission and low disease activity (LDA) through Week 104.1,2ObjectivesThis post hoc analysis of FUTURE 5 explored relationships between radiographic progression status and achievement of LDA or remission in patients treated with SEC.MethodsPatients were randomized 2:2:2:3 to receive SEC 300 mg with loading dose (LD), 150 mg LD, SEC 150 mg without LD, or placebo (PBO) at Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and every 4 weeks thereafter until Week 24. In this post hoc analysis, patients were grouped by radiographic progression status at Week 24 (non-radiographic progressors: change from baseline in modified total Sharp score [mTSS] ≤0.0; radiographic progressors: change from baseline in mTSS >0.0). Efficacy (achievement of Minimal Disease Activity [MDA] or Very Low Disease Activity [VLDA] and their individual components, and Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis [DAPSA] LDA or remission) was assessed at Week 24.ResultsOf 933 patients with available data, 675 (72.3%) were classified as non-radiographic progressors and 258 (27.7%) were radiographic progressors at Week 24. Non-progressors at Week 24 were more likely than progressors to achieve DAPSA LDA and remission at Week 24 across all treatment arms (Figure 1A). In addition, non-progressors were more likely to achieve MDA and VLDA at Week 24 than progressors across all treatment arms (Figure 1B). Similar trends were observed for all of the individual MDA/VLDA criteria at Week 24 among patients treated with SEC 300 mg or SEC 150 mg LD (Table 1). Notably, non-progressors were more likely to achieve improvements in physical function, pain, and patient global assessment of disease activity than progressors across all treatment arms.Table 1.Proportion of Patients Achieving MDA/VLDA Components at Week 24 Grouped by Radiographic Progression Status at Week 24Week 24 non-progressorsWeek 24 progressorsOutcome, n/N (%)SEC 300 mg n = 166SEC 150 mg n = 150SEC 150 mg NL n = 159PBO n = 200SEC 300 mg n = 51SEC 150 mg n = 63SEC 150 mg NL n = 51PBO n = 93TJC78 ≤152/161 (32.3)46/146 (31.5)37/150 (24.7)38/196 (19.4)15/50 (30.0)13/62 (21.0)13/49 (26.5)11/90 (12.2)SJC76 ≤1105/160 (65.6)85/146 (58.2)83/150 (55.3)88/196 (44.9)32/50 (64.0)28/62 (45.2)20/49 (40.8)30/90 (33.3)PASI ≤1 or BSA ≤3%99/128 (77.3)90/128 (70.3)69/109 (63.3)64/153 (41.8)29/38 (76.3)27/47 (57.4)28/40 (70.0)26/70 (37.1)Patient pain VAS ≤1557/144 (39.6)50/133 (37.6)50/141 (35.5)33/179 (18.4)14/42 (33.3)15/60 (25.0)13/43 (30.2)7/82 (8.5)PtGA VAS ≤2063/145 (43.4)47/125 (37.6)50/135 (37.0)39/173 (22.5)13/41 (31.7)14/61 (23.0)13/41 (31.7)7/81 (8.6)HAQ-DI ≤0.572/135 (53.3)55/118 (46.6)54/122 (44.3)47/158 (29.7)13/39 (33.3)18/58 (31.0)17/39 (43.6)19/77 (24.7)Tender entheseal points ≤170/87 (80.5)44/63 (69.8)42/76 (55.3)45/88 (51.1)13/18 (72.2)17/31 (54.8)11/19 (57.9)23/38 (60.5)BSA, body surface area; HAQ-DI, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index; MDA, Minimal Disease Activity; NL, no loading dose; PASI, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index; PBO, placebo; PtGA, patient global assessment of disease activity; SEC, secukinumab; SJC, swollen joint count; TJC, tender joint count; VAS, visual analog scale; VLDA, Very Low Disease Activity.ConclusionPatients who did not have radiographic progression over 6 months of SEC treatment were more likely to achieve LDA or remission and improvement in physical function at Week 24.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death world-wide and its treatment remains a challenge in clinic, especially for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Thus, more effective therapeutic strategies are required for NSCLC treatment. Quercetin (Que) as a natural flavonoid compound has gained increasing interests due to its anticancer activity. However, poor water solubility, low bioavailability, short half-life, and weak tumor accumulation hinder in vivo applications and antitumor effects of Que. In this study, we developed Que-loaded mixed micelles (Que-MMICs) assembled from 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine–poly(ethylene glycol)–biotin (DSPE–PEG–biotin) and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate–poly[2-(dimethylamino) ethyl acrylate]–polycaprolactone (PEGMA–PDMAEA–PCL) for NSCLC treatment. The results showed that Que was efficiently encapsulated into the mixed micelles and the encapsulation efficiency (EE) was up to 85.7%. Cellular uptake results showed that biotin conjugation significantly improved 1.2-fold internalization of the carrier compared to that of non-targeted mixed micelles. In vitro results demonstrated that Que-MMICs could improve cytotoxicity (IC50 = 7.83 μg/mL) than Que-MICs (16.15 μg/mL) and free Que (44.22 μg/mL) to A549 cells, which efficiently induced apoptosis and arrested cell cycle. Furthermore, Que-MMICs showed satisfactory tumor targeting capability and antitumor efficacy possibly due to the combination of enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) and active targeting effect. Collectively, Que-MMICs demonstrated high accumulation at tumor site and exhibited superior anticancer activity in NSCLC bearing mice model.

Abstract
Filled and unfilled Sr2NaNb5O15-based tungsten bronze ceramics based on Gd doping were prepared using a traditional solid-state reaction method. Relaxor behaviors of the two different systems were analyzed, and the corresponding energy storage performance was also characterized. With the support of weakly coupled polar nanoregions and a non-polar matrix, an energy storage density of 2.37 J/cm3 and an efficiency of 94.4% were obtained in the Sr1.82Gd0.12NaNb5O15 ceramic. A discharge energy density of 2.51 J/cm3 and a power density of 59.1 MW/cm3 further proved its prospect for practical applications. In addition, the thermal stability and fatigue resistance of the ceramic were also evaluated. At the same time, under the theoretical framework of a perovskite and tungsten bronze, the contribution of vacancies to the local structure and relaxor behavior was briefly discussed. Because the currently used ceramics do not contain easily reducible metal oxides, this work lays the foundation for the development of multilayer ceramic capacitors that use base metals as internal electrodes.

Abstract
In recent years, the scale of population exposure and food poisoning caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) has shown a significant upward trend, becoming one of the primary food-borne pathogens. Herein, we developed a rapid and sensitive detection of V. parahaemolyticus by integrating the technology of magnetic nanobeads (MBs) based immunoseparation (IMS) with quantum dots (QDs) based immunofluorescence. Firstly, specific rabbit polyclone IgG antibodies (IgG) and chicken egg yolk antibodies (IgY) of V. parahaemolyticus were prepared. Then two sizes of MBs (1 μm; 180 nm) were coupled with IgG to form immuno-MB (IMB) capture probes for evaluating the effect of different sizes on the detection efficiency. For QDs, they were conjugated with IgY to form fluorescent reporting probes. In the process of detection, IMB probes were used to separate V. parahaemolyticus and then these complexes were labeled by QD probes on the principle of double antibody sandwich. The fluorescence intensity of the IMB-V. parahaemolyticus-QD complexes was measured by a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The detection method takes 150 min with a detection limit of 102 cfu mL-1 ranging from 102 to 106 cfu mL-1 and it has been shown to work satisfactorily in real food samples.
