Abstract
In this work, a novel sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor based on signal amplification was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of zearalenone (ZEA). The composite consisting of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) functionalized nitrogen doped graphene, halloysite nanotubes and toluidine blue (Tb/NG/PDDA/HNTs), was synthesized for the first time. Then it was modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to bind the secondary antibody (Ab2, 10 μg mL-1) and form the tracer label. In addition, ketjen black (KB) was doped into titanium-based metal-organic framework (Ti-MOF), which provided large specific surface area and employed as the sensing platform to increase the immobilization of the primary antibody (Ab1, 10 μg mL-1). This immunosensor showed a wide linear range for ZEA from 10 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.57 fg mL-1, which was below the maximum tolerable levels (50∼100 µg kg-1) set by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

Abstract
In this study, a signal-on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor for ultrasensitive detection of sulfadimethoxine (SDM) was constructed based on a competitive aptamer strategy. Specifically, cerium-metal-organic framework (Ce-MOF) with large specific surface area and excellent electrical conductivity was combined with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to form a substrate, followed by the immobilisation of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) via AuN bonds. In the presence of SDM, the aptamer tended to form an aptamer-SDM complex, which caused dsDNA to dissociate. After release of the aptamer, the capture probe (CP) combined with the tracer label to enhance the ECL signal. As expected, the prepared sensor displayed an ideal linear response range from 10.0 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.28 fg mL-1 and successfully detected SDM in milk and quality control samples.

Abstract
Ni-Zn bimetallic organic framework nanosheets (NiZn-MOF NSs) were modified onto PEI-functionalized MXene for the first time. The combination of the two kinds of nanosheets forms a sensing platform with superior conductivity and biocompatibility. On this basis, a highly sensitive biosensor was developed for the determination of sulfadimethoxine (SDM). Furthermore, Au and Mn nanoparticles decorated reduced graphene oxide (Au-Mn/rGO) was introduced as a signal hindering molecule under the target-induced amplification strategy. When the Au-Mn/rGO-labelled SDM-binding aptamer (Au-Mn/rGO-SBA) specifically bound to target SDM, it detached from the electrode, thereby further amplifying the electrochemical signal of [Fe(CN)6]3-/4-. The developed aptasensor for SDM showed excellent response signals in the range 1 pg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1, with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.22 pg mL-1. Significantly, the proposed sensor also showed satisfactory results in milk samples with recoveries ranging from 87.0 to 96.4% and RSD from 1.5 to 5.1%, which is believed to be useful in food safety assays.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This prospective study examined whether 18F-FAPI-04 PET/CT can predict the development and severity of radiation esophagitis (RE) in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC) treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS From June 2021 to March 2022, images were prospectively collected from LA-ESCC patients who underwent 18F-FAPI-04 PET/CT examinations before and during radiotherapy. The development of RE was evaluated weekly according to Radiation Therapy Oncology Group criterion. The target-to-background ratio in blood (TBRblood) was analyzed at each time point and correlated with the onset and severity of RE. Factors that predicted RE were identified by multivariate logistic analyses. RESULTS Thirty patients (median age, 66.5 years [interquartile range: 56¨C71 years]; 22 men) were evaluated. Significantly higher TBRblood (during radiotherapy, mean: 3.06 vs 7.11, P = 0.003) and change in TBRblood compared with pre-RT (ΔTBRblood, mean: 0.67 vs 4.81, P = 0.002) were observed in patients with RE than patients without RE. Those with grade 3 RE had a significantly higher TBRblood (during radiotherapy, mean: 4.55 vs 9.66, P = 0.003) and ΔTBRblood (mean: 2.16 vs 7.50, P = 0.003) compared with those with RE CONCLUSION The ΔTBRblood on 18F-FAPI-04 PET/CT may be effective at identifying patients at risk for the development of RE, especially grade 3 RE.

Abstract
We report on electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy of boron-vacancy (V_{B}^{-}) centers hosted in isotopically engineered hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) crystals. We first show that isotopic purification of hBN with ^{15}N yields a simplified and well-resolved hyperfine structure of V_{B}^{-} centers, while purification with ^{10}B leads to narrower ESR linewidths. These results establish isotopically purified h^{10}B^{15}N crystals as the optimal host material for future use of V_{B}^{-} spin defects in quantum technologies. Capitalizing on these findings, we then demonstrate optically induced polarization of ^{15}N nuclei in h^{10}B^{15}N, whose mechanism relies on electron-nuclear spin mixing in the V_{B}^{-} ground state. This work opens up new prospects for future developments of spin-based quantum sensors and simulators on a two-dimensional material platform.

Abstract
Cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA21-1) is a protein fragment dissolved in the blood after apoptosis of lung epithelial cells, which is a predictive biomarker for the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Detection of serum CYFRA21-1 has a significant clinical value in diagnosis, monitoring and prognosis of NSCLC. Herein, a novel electrochemical immunosensor was constructed for the sensitive detection of CYFRA21-1. First, superconductive carbon black (KB) functionalized polyethyleneimine (PEI)-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were covered on the surface of methylene blue (MB) and used as substrate materials to immobilize the CYFRA21-1 antibody. Then, target CYFRA21-1 was successfully detected using an electrochemical immunosensor through specific recognition of antigen and antibody. The zirconium-based metal organic framework of PCN-222(Fe) with a large pore size and three-dimensional (3D) structure can absorb abundant AuNPs through strong electrostatic interaction, which enhances the conductive properties of PCN-222(Fe) and prevents the self-aggregation of AuNPs. However, PCN-222(Fe) with peroxidase-like activity can catalyze the generation of hydroxyl free radicals (˙OH) from H2O2, which oxidized MB, leading to a decrease in the current signal. The signal response to the degradation of MB was recorded using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). This indirect method of immunosensor offered a new strategy to address the limitations imposed by the poor conductivity of PCN-222(Fe), further enabling the amplification of the signal through the oxidative degradation of MB. Compared with traditional electrochemical immunosensors, this method has the advantages of a stable current signal and good reproducibility, providing a promising reference for the broad application of PCN-222(Fe) in electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
In recent decades, the incidence of breast cancer has increased year by year, posing a serious threat to human health and quality of life, and about 30% of breast cancer patients have human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression. Therefore, HER2 has become an important biomarker and indicator for the clinical evaluation of breast cancer in diagnosis, prognosis and recurrence. In this work, polyethyleneimine functionalized MoS2 nanoflowers (PEI-MoS2NFs) with good electrical conductivity and abundant active binding sites were designed and employed as a sensing platform for immobilizing the primary antibody of HER2 (Ab1). In addition, a La-MOF-PbO2 composite with a large specific surface area and good conductivity was used to load lots of electroactive toluidine blue (TB) and the secondary antibody of HER2 (Ab2) via gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the linker. Thus, the constructed sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was applied for sensitive detection of HER2, which showed a wide linear range from 100 fg mL-1 to 10 μg mL-1 with a lower limit of detection of 15.64 fg mL-1. Therefore, the resulting immunosensor in this study would have a potential application in clinical bioanalysis.

Abstract
The accurate identification and sensitive quantification of heavy metal ions are of great significance, considering that pose a serious threat to environment and human health. Most array-based sensing platforms, to date, utilize nanozymes as sensing elements, but few studies have explored the application of the peroxidase-like activity of clusterzymes in identification of multiple analytes. Herein, for the first time, we developed a clusterzyme sensor array utilizing gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) as sensing elements for five heavy metal ions identification including Hg2+, Pb2+, Cu2+, Cd2+ and Co2+. The heavy metal ions can differentially regulate the peroxidase-like activity of AuNCs, and that can be converted into colorimetric signals with 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as the chromogenic substrate. Subsequently, the generated composite responses can be interpreted by combining pattern recognition algorithms. The developed clusterzyme sensor array can identify five heavy metal ions at concentrations as low as 0.5 μM and their multi-component mixtures. Especially, we demonstrated the successful identification of multiple heavy metal ions in tap water and traditional Chinese medicine, with an accuracy of 100% in blind test. This study provided a simple and effective method for identification and quantification of heavy metal ions, rendering a promising technique for environmental monitoring and drug safety assurance.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer with substantial morbidity and mortality. Herein, a new signal-on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor based on multiple amplification strategies is constructed for ultrasensitive detection of cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA21-1) biomarker related to NSCLC. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) functionalized MXene is decorated with NiMn layer double hydroxide (NiMn LDH) to form MXene-PEI-NiMn LDH composite. Specially, the La-MOF@ZIF-67 bimetallic organic framework (named as LZBM) and MXene-PEI-NiMn LDH both served as coreaction accelerators to improve the ECL emission of the luminol-H2 O2 system. To be specific, Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) coated MXene-PEI-NiMn LDH is applied to immobilize primary CYFRA21-1 antibody (Ab1 ), while AuNPs decorated LZBM was used for the loading of luminol and secondary CYFRA21-1 antibody (Ab2 ) to form tracer label. Therefore, the ECL signal of the sandwich-type immunosensor is significantly enhanced due to the high loading capability for luminol and the synergistic catalytic ability for the decomposition of H2 O2 into reactive oxygen species (ROS). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the ECL immunosensor exhibited good analytical performances for CYFRA21-1 detection with a wide linear range (100 fg mL-1 -100 ng mL-1 ) and a low limit of detection (85.20 fg mL-1 ), providing a promising method for early diagnosis of NSCLC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Osteocalcin may benefit nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The present study aimed to explore the levels of serum osteocalcin in NAFLD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS In total, 1026 inpatients diagnosed with T2DM were enrolled in the study. NAFLD was defined according to the working definition of the revised guidelines for the management of NAFLD published by the Chinese Liver Disease Association, and confirmed by abdominal ultrasonography. RESULTS The current study found a NAFLD prevalence of 54% in the T2DM population. Subjects with NAFLD had lower concentrations of osteocalcin (8.28-13.99 ng/mL vs. 8.80-16.25 ng/mL, P = 0.001) but similar vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, beta-C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and procollagen type 1 N-peptide levels. Osteocalcin levels (OR: 0.956; 95% CI 0.926-0.987) were significantly associated with NAFLD. When all significant clinical indicators were analyzed together, increased BMI (OR: 1.120; 95% CI 1.065-1.178), fasting C-peptide (OR: 1.270; 95% CI 1.089-1.481) and triglycerides (OR: 1.661; 95% CI 1.284-2.148) were associated with a greater risk of NAFLD, while older age (OR: 0.967; 95% CI 0.948-0.986) and high osteocalcin levels (OR: 0.935; 95% CI 0.902-0.969) were related with a decreased risk of NAFLD. For every additional unit of osteocalcin, the patients received 7% deduced odds of NAFLD. CONCLUSION Low osteocalcin levels were associated with an increased risk for NAFLD in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
A novel and relatively simple signal-off electrochemical aptasensor was constructed for highly sensitive detection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). For the first time, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) decorated titanium dioxide nanotube (TNT) was conjugated with polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) functionalized reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to form a new nanohybrid of Ag-TNT/P-rGO. This nanohybrid with a large specific surface area exhibited excellent electrochemical activity, which not only served as the sensing platform to immobilize LPS binding aptamer (LBA) but was also employed as the redox probe to monitor the change of the electrochemical signal. The electrochemical signal responses were measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in the potential range -0.3 to 0.5 V at a scan rate of 0.1 V/s. The proposed aptasensor exhibited acceptable stability, reproducibility, and specificity for LPS detection with a wide linear range from 17 fg/mL to 100 ng/mL. The limit of detection (LOD) was 5 fg/mL. Furthermore, the prepared aptasensor showed acceptable recovery ranging from 96% to 103%, and the RSD varied between 1.4% and 8.5% for determining LPS in real samples.Graphical abstract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common skin disorder in infancy. However, the diagnosis and definite significance of infantile AD remains a debated issue. OBJECTIVE To analyse the phenotypes of AD in infancy, to establish diagnostic criteria and to estimate the prevalence of this condition in China. METHODS This is a multicentric study, in which 12 locations were chosen from different metropolitan areas of China. Following careful and complete history-taking and skin examination, the definite diagnosis of AD was made and the severity based on the SCORAD index was determined by local experienced dermatologists. Based on the detailed phenotyping, the major and representative clinical features of infantile AD were selected to establish the diagnostic criteria and evaluate their diagnostic efficacy. RESULTS A total of 5967 infants were included in this study. The overall point prevalence of AD was 30.48%. The infantile AD developed as early as at the second month of life, and its incidence peaked in the third month of life at 40.81%. The proportion of mild, moderate and severe AD was 67.40%, 30.57% and 2.03%, respectively. The most commonly seen manifestations in the infantile AD were facial dermatitis (72.07%), xerosis (42.72%) and scalp dermatitis (27.93%). We established the novel diagnostic criteria of infants, which included: (i) onset after 2 weeks of birth; (ii) pruritus and/or irritability and sleeplessness comparable with lesions; and (iii) all two items above with one of the following items can reach a diagnosis of AD: (i) eczematous lesions distributed on cheeks and/or scalp and/or extensor limbs, and (ii) eczematous lesions on any other parts of body accompanied by xerosis. CONCLUSIONS In China, the prevalence of AD in infancy is 30.48% according to clinical diagnosis of dermatologists. The novel Chinese diagnostic criteria for AD in infants show a higher sensitivity and comparable specificity.

Abstract
This work describes a voltammetric and ultrasensitive aptasensor for sulfadimethoxine (SDM). It is based on signal amplification by making use of a multifunctional fullerene-doped reduced graphene oxide nanohybrid. The nanohybrid was coated with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) to obtain a material (P-C60-rGO) with large specific surface area and a unique adsorption ability for loading it with glucose oxidase (GOx). The coating also facilitates the direct electron transfer between the active site of GOx and the glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The P-C60-rGO were then modified with Pt@Au nanoparticles, and the thiolated SDM-binding aptamer was immobilized on the nanoparticles. On exposure of the modified GCE to a solution containing SDM, it binds to the aptamer. The results were recorded through the signal responses generated from the redox center of GOx (FAD/FADH2) by cyclic voltammetry at a scan rate of 100 mV·s-1 from -0.25 to -0.65 V. Accordingly, The sensor has good specificity and stability, and response is linear in the 10 fg·mL-1 to 50 ng·mL-1 SDM concentration range with a detection limit of 8.7 fg·mL-1. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of an electrochemical aptasensor for sulfadimethoxine (SDM) using multifunctional fullerene-doped graphene (C60-rGO) nanohybrids for amplification. The limit of detection for SDM is as low as 8.7 fg·mL-1.

Abstract
The risks caused by veterinary drug residues in animal foodstuffs are of great concern to the public. Accordingly, this work reported an amperometric aptasensor for highly sensitive detection of sulfadimethoxine (SDM). Functionalised fullerene (C60)-doped graphene (C60-rGO) nanohybrid was designed and prepared to load electroactive toluidine blue (Tb) through the π-π stacking, forming a C60-rGO-Tb nanocomposite. Furthermore, the as-prepared nanocomposite was decorated with gold nanoparticles and used for the immobilization of signal probes to form a new signal tracer, which was coupled with exonuclease-catalyzed target recycling for amplification. To construct the aptasensor, a thiolated double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) of aptamer-capture probe complex was immobilised on a gold electrode surface through strong Au-S bond. In the presence of SDM, the aptamer preferred to form an aptamer-SDM complex, which led to the dissociation of dsDNA. Then aptamer could be selectively digested by RecJf exonuclease, resulting in liberated SDM molecules to participate in the next reaction cycling and achieve signal amplification. Then, capture probes released from the cyclic processes were hybridized with the signal tracer, which could further enhance electrochemical signal responses. On the basis of cascade signal amplification strategies, the proposed aptasensor exhibited a wide linear range from 10 fg/mL to 10 ng/mL for SDM with high sensitivity, good selectivity and satisfactory stability.

Abstract
A method for the simultaneous determination of 21 illegally added chemical drugs in improving sleep and immunity health foods using ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed. Oral liquid and health wine samples were shaken with acetonitrile and acetonitrile-water-formic acid (60:39:1, v/v/v), respectively, then purified by QuEChERS method. The extracts were separated on an Acquity UPLCTM BEH C18 column (50 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with gradient elution of acetonitrile and 2 mmol/L ammonium acetate solution containing 0.1% (v/v) formic acid as mobile phases. The electrospray ionization in positive ion mode was used for analysis in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The results showed that the target drugs had a good linear relationship in the range of 1-100 μg/L with the correlation coefficients (R2) ≥ 0.992. The limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantification (LOQs) were 0.07-3.41 μg/kg and 0.22-11.36 μg/kg, respectively. The average recoveries of the 21 chemical drugs in oral liquid and health wine were in the range of 61.4%-116.5% and 67.4%-98.4% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.2%-13.4% and 0.2%-11.8%, respectively. The developed method is sensitive and reliable. It has been successfully used for the detection of illegally added chemical drugs in real samples.

Abstract
Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) is the most abundant and biologically active catechin in green tea, and it exerts multiple effects in humans through mechanisms that remain to be clarified. The present study used bioinformatics to identify possible mechanisms by which EGCG reduces the risk of ovarian cancer. Possible human protein targets of EGCG were identified in the PubChem database, possible human gene targets were identified in the National Center for Biotechnology Information database, and then both sets of targets were analyzed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). The results suggest that signaling proteins affected by EGCG in ovarian cancer, which include JUN, FADD, NFKB1, Bcl‐2, HIF1α, and MMP, are involved primarily in cell cycle, cellular assembly and organization, DNA replication, etc. These results identify several specific proteins and pathways that may be affected by EGCG in ovarian cancer, and they illustrate the power of integrative informatics and chemical fragment analysis for focusing mechanistic studies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The enumeration of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) using the CellSearch assay is a well-established prognostic and predictive marker for metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, additional prognostic markers are lacking in patients with ≥ 5 CTCs in 7.5 ml of blood. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are derived from circulating monocytes or tissue-resident macrophages. TAMs have a controversial role in metastasis and anti-tumor processes. Recent studies showed that circulating cancer associated macrophage-like cells (CAMLs) are specialized phagocytic myeloid cells and found in the peripheral blood of patients with solid tumors including breast cancer, but not in healthy individuals. The presence of CAMLs may indicate the activation of innate immunity in cancer patients. The function and prognostic value of CAMLs in MBC is unknown. In the current study, we measured CTCs and CAMLs on the CellSearch™ platform and investigated their prognostic values in MBC.
Methods: Peripheral blood samples from 127 stages IV breast cancer patients were collected at baseline before starting first-line therapy. The detection and enumeration of CTCs and CAMLs in 7.5 ml blood sample were performed on the CellSearch™ system. CTCs were identified by cytokeratins (CK-8, 18, and 19) positive and CD45 negative staining. CAMLs were defined by positive staining for cytokeratins and CD45 (Adams et al, PNAS, 111(9):3514-9, 2014). CTCs and CAMLs enumeration in associations with the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients were evaluated using Kaplan Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards modeling.
Results: The image review of CAMLs by using CellSearch analysis showed heterogeneous morphological phenotypes. CAMLs are large cells presenting enlarged nuclei or multiple individual nuclei, and both cytokeratin and CD45 positive with diffused cytoplasmic staining. Among the 127 MBC patients, 38 (29.9%) had elevated CTCs (≥5 CTCs), and 21 (16.5%) had at least one CAML detected. Patients with CAMLs had a significantly increased PFS (p=0.0374) and OS (p=0.0042), compared to patients without CAMLs at baseline. Patients with elevated baseline CTCs and CAMLs had worse PFS with a hazard ratio (HR) of 4.04 (95% CI 2.16 -7.56, P<0.0001), compared to patients with < 5 CTCs and without CAMLs. The combined analysis of baseline CTCs enumeration and CAMLs showed similar effect on patient OS. Compared to patients with < 5 CTCs and without CAMLs, patients with < 5 CTCs and with CAMLs, patients with ≥ 5 CTCs and without CAMLs, and patients with ≥ 5 CTCs and with CAMLs, had an increasing trend of death risk, with an HR of 2.66 (95% CI 0.53-13.21), 6.14 (2.10-17.92), and 9.13 (3.05-27.37), respectively (p for trend<0.0001).
Conclusion: Baseline enumerations of both individual CTCs and CAMLs are feasible and increase our ability to accurately predict outcome in MBC patients. Evaluation of CAMLs in peripheral blood may be a marker of innate immunity and provide additional prognostic values for MBC.

Abstract
Objective:To investigate the possible effects of meteorological and environmental factors on AR of children and IFN-γgene specific DNA methylation levels in CD4⁺ T cells of patients with AR. Method:Undergoing follow-up on 35 pediatric AR patients (6-12 years). Data on daily sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), particulate matter of diameter smaller than 10 micrometer (PM-10) and particulate matter of diameter smaller than 2.5 micrometer (PM2.5), the average of ozone (O₃) per 8 hours was available as average values derived from the data of 6 state controlled monitoring stations distributed across Pudong district, Shanghai. We quantified IFN-γ (interferon-γ) gene specific DNA methylation levels in CD4⁺ T cells from 35 patients with AR and 30 healthy controls. mRNA levels of IFN-γ gene were measured by real-time reverse transcriptase-PCR. Methods of personal exposure assessment of PM2.5 and PM10 were measured. Result:Compared with control, IFN-γ promoter region was hypermethylated in AR CD4⁺ T cells (P<0.05). Of all observed CpG sites in IFN-γ promoter region, there were significant differences in CpG⁻²⁹⁹, CpG⁺¹¹⁹, CpG⁺¹⁶⁸ (P=0.004, P=0.029, P=0.035). IFN-γ mRNA expression was significantly increase in CD4⁺ T cells (P<0.05). The level of IFN-γ mRNA expression was negatively correlated to mean level of methylation in IFN-γ promoter region. After adjusting, level of long exposure PM2.5 was positively correlated with level of methylation in IFN-γ promoter region. Conclusion:Level of methylation in IFN-γ promoter region may be affected by long exposure PM2.5.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is an extremely aggressive form of locally advanced breast cancer that affects approximately 5% of breast cancer patients. The prognosis of IBC patients is remarkably poor, with a three-year survival rate of approximately 30% compared to 60% for non-IBC breast cancer patients. The etiology of IBC is largely unknown. A few risk factors have been reported such as body mass index (BMI) and educational level. Prior evidence has also implicated genetic components in IBC etiology. For instance, the reported familial cases and racial incidence disparity of IBC patients, as well as the fact IBC patients typically have a younger age onset than non-IBC patients, all indicated the possible involvement of genetic factors. Nevertheless, as yet no genetic epidemiological study has been reported to evaluate IBC genetic predisposition.
Methods: To test the hypothesis that genetic variants and mutations may affect IBC susceptibility, we performed whole exome sequencing in a pilot case-control study that contained 70 IBC cases and 119 unrelated cancer-free controls. Sequencing data were de-multiplexed, filtered, assessed for various quality control metrics, mapped to reference genome and annotated. Comprehensive single variant-based, gene-centered, and pathway-based analyses were conducted to identify variants, genes, and pathways that may be involved in IBC predisposition.
Results: We obtained > 50x on-target sequencing coverage of the whole exome in > 90% of the patients. In single variant analysis, we identified six variants reaching genome-wide significance. Four variants were encoded by genes that have been implicated in breast cancer development including MALAT1, MAP3K9, POLR3B, and FIP1L1. Two variants were encoded by novel genes that have not been related to breast cancer, including CCDC30 and LINC01565. Two types of analyses based on a gene-centered strategy identified top genes such as SLC39A4, CDHR1, AP5Z1, GNB3, ITGA10, etc. However, possibly due to the limited sample size, none of these genes reached genome-wide significance. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), using the complete list of significant genes identified by each of these analyses all reported "cancer" as the highest possible disorder associated with these genes, demonstrating the biological plausibility of our findings. Moreover, canonical pathways such as IL4 signaling, glycogen degradation, epithelial adherence junction signaling, and CCR3 signaling in eosinophils were among the top pathways that were found involved in IBC predisposition.
Conclusion: Overall, we provided novel preliminary evidence that genetic variants are potentially associated with the risk of developing IBC. We are currently conducting validation studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to confirm these findings and identify additional genetic susceptibility loci.

Abstract
Abstract
Background The enumeration of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has been proven to have prognostic values in several solid tumors including breast cancer. It has been established that a cut-off of 5 CTCs in 7.5 ml of blood may significantly differentiate breast cancer patients with favorable and unfavorable survival. However, CTC enumeration has not been shown to further predict the prognosis in those patients with more than 5 CTCs in 7.5 ml of blood. There are several recent in vitro and in vivo studies suggesting that clusters of CTC can be identified in blood and those clusters may play an important role in tumor progression and metastasis. Few clinical studies have been reported to enumerate CTC clusters and evaluate their prognostic values. In the current study, we hypothesize that the enumeration of CTC clusters play an important role in the prognostication of advanced breast cancer patients by providing additional predictive performance independent of CTC enumeration.
Methods In an ongoing study of blood-based breast cancer biomarkers, we enrolled 114 patients with stages III and IV breast cancer. Among them, 68 patients had inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), an extremely aggressive form of breast cancer with a much lower survival rate than non-IBC breast cancer patients. The number of single CTCs and CTC clusters (two or more CTCs bound together) in 7.5 ml blood sample were counted using the CellSearch™ system (Janssen Diagnostic) at baseline study entry, and their associations with the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients were evaluated using Kaplan Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards modeling.
Results Baseline CTCs were detected in 67 (58.77%) patients. Thirty-five (30.70%) and 19 patients (16.67%) had elevated CTCs (≥5 CTCs/7.5 mL) and clusters, respectively. IBC patients had a slightly higher percentage of cluster (17.65%) compared to non-IBC patients (15.22%). Patients with elevated baseline CTC and cluster had worse PFS (log rank P, 0.0009 and 0.0035, respectively). Compared to patients with < 5 CTC and without cluster, those patients with elevated CTC without cluster, and those with elevated CTC with cluster had an increasingly higher risk of disease progression with an hazard ratio [HR] of 1.93 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-3.67) and 2.91 (1.54-5.50), respectively (P for trend = 0.001). Moreover, the combined analysis of baseline CTC and cluster enumerations showed similar effect when the analysis was restricted to IBC patients (HR 3.03, 95% CI 1.34-6.86).
Conclusion Baseline enumerations of both individual CTCs and CTC clusters predict PFS in advanced stage breast cancer patients. CTC clusters provide further prognostic value in patients with elevated CTC and their molecular characterizations may provide novel insights into the metastasis process.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Circulating Tumor cells (CTCs) detection has prognostic and predictive implications in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Genomic and phenotypic analysis of CTCs hold enormous promise as blood-based molecular characterization and monitoring disease progression and treatment benefit with a strong potential to be translated into more individualized targeted treatments. FDA-approved CellSearch™ detection allows only enumeration of CTCs expressing EpCAM without molecular characterization. CTCs represent very heterogeneous populations of tumorigenic cancer cells and some subpopulations have undergone epithelial-Mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is associated metastasis process and an unfavourable outcome. EpCAM-based enrichment technique has failed to detect EMT subpopulations due to the decreased expression or loss of epithelial markers. Non-EpCAM-based approaches are needed for identifying EMT CTCs. The ScreenCell® devices are single-use and low-cost innovative devices that use a filter for enrichment-free isolation of CTCs by a two-steps combining size-based separation and staining using different markers. The DEPArray™ system is the ideal downstream isolation system to collect single or pooled CTCs for molecular and genetic analysis. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of achieving CTCs detection/enumeration using ScreenCell® filtration followed by single cell isolation with the DEPArray™ in MBC patients.
Methods: The first part of the study consisted in evaluating CTCs detection/enumeration in 30 patients with stage III and stage IV breast cancer. 3 mL of whole blood in an EDTA or Transfix tubes was collected and processed on the ScreenCell® Cyto device following the instructions of the supplier. CTCs were stained with cytokeratin (CK-8, 18, and 19), leukocyte antigen (CD45), and a nuclear dye (DAPI) and counted under fluorescence microscope. CTCs were identified as positive staining for CK and DAPI and negative staining for CD45 (CK+/DAPI+CD45-). In the second part, After enrichment, CTCs were stained with CK, CD45, and DAPI and sorted with DEPArray™ Platform (Silicon Biosystems, Inc). Single CTCs were collected and the DNA of each single CTCs was amplified with Ampli1™ WGA kit, and the genome integrity index (GII) was assessed by Ampli1™ QC kit (Silicon Biosystems, Inc). Library was constructed and whole exome sequencing (WES) of DNA mutations was conducted.
Results: Twenty patient samples had CTCs detected (66.7%), the number of CTCs was 1 to 347 per 3.0 ml of whole blood. CTC-clusters were detected in 7 patient samples (23.3%). Single CTCs were collected on DEPArray™ platform after enrichment with ScreenCell filtration. GII was confirmed with the presence of short, medium, and long DNA fragments (3 to 4 PCR bands) in the WGA library by PCR-based assay. All collected CTCs showed high GII as measured by Ampli1™ QC kit (GII ≥ 3) for WES of DNA mutations. The data analysis of WES results is under processing.
Conclusions: ScreenCell® filtration is simple and effective devices to isolate CTCs and identify CTC-clusters. Isolation of single cells for molecular analysis using the combination of ScreenCell® filtration and DEPArray™ Platform is feasible for genetic characterization of CTCs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: 65% of primary breast cancers express the estrogen receptor α (ERα) and the mainstay of treatment are therapies that result in selective estrogen receptor modulation (SERM) of estrogen deprivation (aromatase inhibitors, AIs). Even thought endocrine therapy resulted in reduced recurrence and mortality, a significant portion of patients relapse with a metastatic disease and subsequently progress while of therapy for advanced disease (endocrine resistance). Recent evidence showed that activating hot spot mutation in the ligand binding domain of the ERα are acquired on treatment (frequency of 20%) and can drive resistance to endocrine therapy. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) provide a non-invasive accessible source of tumor material and the molecular profiling of these rare cells might lead to insight on disease progression and therapeutic strategies. These features suggest that the detection of ESR1 mutation on single CTC may be a useful biomarker for therapy guidance.
Purpose: Investigate the incidence and heterogeneity of ESR1 mutational status within single CTCs isolated from individual metastatic breast cancer patients (mBCs), combining the FDA approved CellSearch® system for enumeration of CTCs with the DEPArrayTM technologies.
Methods: CTCs were enriched and enumerate by CellSearch® in 7.5 ml blood samples collected from 21 mBCs according to standard protocol. Each CTC-enriched sample with at least 20 CTCs was recovered from Veridex cartridge and loaded into the DEPArrayTM A300K chip, since the DEPArrayTM analyzed only the 66% of the sample volume loaded, according to the manufacturer's instructions. The chip scanning was performed by automated fluorescence microscope. The loaded cells were recovered as single cell and subdivided in tree different group: Cytokeratin (CK) positive ( Dapi+, CK+, ER-, CD45-); ER positive (Dapi+, ER+, CK+, CD45-); White Blood cells (WBCs) (Dapi+, CD45+, CK-, ER-). Single CTCs and WBCs were then submitted to whole genome amplification (WGA) using the Single Cell WGA kit (Yikon Genomics) according the manufacturer's instructions. Detection of target 14 ESR1 hot spot mutations was performed on ABI PRISM® 3700 genetic analyzer by target Sanger sequencing.
Results: 3 out of 21 mBCs with ≥20 CTCs were sorted and a total of 65 cells were recovered. WGA and ESR1 mutational status were performed on a total of 25 cells (respectively 11 ER+, 6 CK+ and 8 WBCs). In 1 of the 3 patients, that failed 2 lines of chemotherapy and previous single agent endocrine therapy, molecular heterogeneity was detected among its ER+ cells. 4 of 5 ER+ cells were heterozygote for the Y537S while one cell was homozygous, maybe due to a loss of heterozygosity. Y537S is one of the most common mutations that leads to a ligand independent ER transcriptional activity that does not respond to endocrine manipulation. No mutations were reported in all the CK+ and WBC cells analyzed.
Conclusions: This study demonstrates the feasibility of a non-invasive approach based on liquid biopsy in mBCs. Evaluation of ER status and early identification of ESR1 mutation in ER+ CTCs might allow to predict effect of the endocrine therapies and switching to other treatments before the emergence of metastatic disease.

Abstract
A novel method was established for the determination of 11 β-blockers in sedative functional foods using QuEchERS sample preparation coupled with UPLC-MS/MS. The analytes were extracted twice with acetic acid-acetonitrile-methanol (0.1:3:7, v/v/v), and the extracts were purified with mixed QuEchERS adsorbents. Separation was performed on a C18 column, and detection using electrospray ionisation in positive-ion mode. The linear range for the 11 analytes was from 1 to 500 μg l(-1), and the correlation coefficients were above 0.9990. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.02-0.16 and 0.07-0.54 μg kg(-1), respectively. The average recovery for 11 analytes at the three spiking levels varied from 71.8% to 121.9%, and the relative standard deviation was 2.4-12.6%. The method was applied to the analysis of β-blockers in 22 real samples, but none of the analytes was detected. The proposed method is sensitive, efficient, reliable and applicable to real samples.

Abstract
A novel analytical method employing solid-phase extraction (SPE) coupled with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed for the simultaneous determination of 30 hormones in anti-ageing functional foods (capsules, powders and tablets). The analytes were extracted with acetic acid-acetonitrile (1-99 v/v), methanol and acetone, respectively. The extract was purified using a combined column, followed by analyte detection with electrospray ionisation in positive- or negative-ion modes. The results indicated that the 30 compounds had good linear correlations in the range of 1-1000 μg kg⁻¹, and the correlation coefficients were above 0.99. The limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) were 0.03-2 and 0.1-5 μg kg⁻¹, respectively. The average recovery of 30 compounds at the three spiked levels varied from 74.7% to 124.1%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 2.4-15.0%. This method was applied to the analysis of hormones in 14 real samples of which seven hormones (such as estrone, dienestrol) were detected in four samples, but the remainder of the hormones were not detected. The developed method is sensitive, efficient, reliable and applicable to real samples.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease of uncertain etiology that affects multiple tissues and organs. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) has been used in lupus-prone mice with a regulatory effect on immune abnormality. Tetra-arsenic tetra-sulfide (As4S4), a traditional Chinese medicine, is effective on acute promyelocytic leukemia with mild side effects than ATO. In this study, a pilot study was performed to investigate the effects and the mechanism of As4S4 on the lupus-prone BXSB mice. Improvement of monocytosis (p<0.05) in spleen and decreased serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) (p=0.0277) were observed with As4S4 treatment. As4S4-treated mice exhibited amelioration of skin, liver and renal disease with mild side effects. Histological analysis revealed that As4S4 suppressed immune complex deposition, mesangial proliferation and inflammatory cell infiltration in kidney and liver. Our study support that As4S4 selectively suppresses cutaneous lupus and nephritis in BXSB mice and might be a potential treatment for SLE.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is an aggressive type of advanced breast cancer with a poor prognosis and lower survival rate. IBC is characterized by peculiar clinical and biological features and resistance to standard treatments. IBC has shown the capacity to spread early through lymphatic channels and blood vessels causing the specific inflammatory signs. Currently, there are no specific therapeutic options for IBC patients because of very few molecular alterations associated with IBC. Thus, there is an unmet need to identify distinguished features of IBC that differentiate the disease from non-inflammatory breast cancer (nIBC). Metabolomic analysis of cancer cells holds the promise to identify unique chemical fingerprints of important cellular processes. In this study we investigated the global biochemical profiles of IBC and nIBC cells.
METHODS: Three IBC cell lines, SUM190, SUM149, FC-IBC-02, and three nIBC cell lines, MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, with five replicates for each cell line, were analyzed in this study. Metabolomic profiling analysis was performed by Metabolon, Inc (Durham, NC) on the gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy and ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography/mass spectroscopy platforms as previously described (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 108, 3270-3275, 2011). A total of 347 metabolites were detected. Welch's two-sample t-test was used to identify biochemicals that differed significantly between experimental groups (p≤0.001), as well as those approaching significance (0.001<p<0.05).
RESULTS: Comparison of global biochemical profiles for IBC and nIBC cell lines revealed numerous statistically changed metabolites at a p-value threshold of p<0.001. Statistical comparisons also revealed a clear metabolic separation of samples due to cell line differences. Several biochemical pathways emerged as being commonly altered across all IBC cell lines compared to all nIBC cell lines. Notable observations include alterations in inflammatory signaling, energy metabolism, and cell proliferation. Signatures of inflammation were elevated and inflammatory signaling pathways showed activation in IBC cell lines. In energy metabolism, the cellular energy for IBC cells appeared to be derived from amino acid catabolism to a greater extent than in nIBC cells. Furthermore, fatty acids was significantly elevated in IBC cell lines, that may indicate a reduced cellular proliferation and increased glycogen storage in IBC cells. Moreover, an altered methylation and glutathione metabolism were shown in IBC cell lines.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study is the first to demonstrate difference of metabolic profiles between IBC and nIBC cells. Future studies comparing global biochemical profiles in tissue biopsy and blood from IBC and nIBC patients may help to confirm the relevance of these findings in cell lines. Metabolic targets may provide more effective and specific therapeutic strategy for the treatment of IBC patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a highly aggressive form of breast cancer associated with extremely poor outcomes. The clinical and pathological characteristics of the disease are the peculiar invasion of the dermal lymphatics as tumor emboli and the development of early recurrences. We aimed to establish a 3D model to evaluate the role of tumor microenvironment.
Methods: We used human tumor-associated fibroblasts (or fibroblasts derived from metastatic skin) from IBC patients to build a multilayer extracellular matrix structure which effectively mimics aspects of the mesenchymal microenvironment of IBCs. Using this in vivo-like microenvironment we proceeded to test both matrix effects upon IBC's phenotypes and IBC modifications upon the cell-derived 3D matrices.
We seeded the IBC cells into the matrix and cultured for 3 days, then tested the characterization markers cancer cells and ECM e.g. Phalloidin, E-cadherin, Ki67, α5β1 integrin and fibronectin by immunofluorescence and the expression of E-cadherin and vimentin as marker of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by western blot.
Results: We divided six IBC cell lines into 2 groups depending on the phenotypes acquired when cultured in the IBC fibroblast-derived ECM. SUM149 (EGF receptor positive and aggressive phenotype), BR016 and LG018 (harvested from patient's pleural effusions) presented a single cell organization with a spindle-like or mesenchymal type (as opposed to cluster) morphology. In comparison, SUM190 (HER2 positive and non aggressive tumorigenesis), MDA-IBC-3 and FC-IBC-02 (abstracted from patient's pleural effusion) presented a phenotype resembling mammospheres or in vivo emboli. Moreover, this last group of cells showed a peculiar capability for ECM modifications which greatly differed from the ECM modifications that were apparent following 3 day culturing of the above mentioned group represented by SUM149. In addition, proliferation measurements by Ki67 expression demonstrated a significant increased in 3D culture for SUM149, BR016 and LG018 compared with that in 2D culture, while no differences in proliferation were observed in the other three cell lines. Moreover, the expression of E-cadherin known to be upregulated in IBC tumors was increased in all cancer cells when seeded into the human fibroblast-derived 3D matrix indicating a potential role of the microenvironment in promoting proliferation, growth and invasion.
Conclusion: The present study demonstrated the establishment of a novel IBC stromal 3D model using extracellular matrix produced from human fibroblasts of patients with advanced IBC. We showed a dynamic interaction between cancer cells and the microenvironment and potential sorting of IBC cells into two discrete groups which also correlate with their aggressive behaviors in vivo. We believe that these system may serve to predict levels of IBC tumorigenesis. We will proceed to further study the two identified responsive phenotypes with the goal of uncovering mechanisms of IBC tumor-stromal interactions and better understand ECM influences upon IBC development and progression. The ultimate goal will be to use the system to study IBC biology and better design drugs that will specifically affect the newly identified phenotypes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most metastatic variant of breast cancer. It is associated with a poor survival rate (40% 5-year survival) despite appropriate multidisciplinary care. For such an aggressive type of cancer, IBC has been understudied, in part due to the lack of adequate numbers of cell lines and mouse models that recapitulate the human disease. To expand our understanding of IBC, we have obtained all of the previously developed and characterized IBC cell lines and models including Mary-X, SUM149, SUM190, KPL-4, MDA-IBC-3 and have developed two new IBC models, designated as FC-IBC01 and FC-IBC02, using tumor cells derived from pleural effusion of IBC patients.
Materials and Methods: Each of these IBC cell lines has been luciferase (LUC)-tagged, allowing the growth of orthotopic injection or subcutaneous implantation to be evaluated by bioluminescent imaging (BLI). Alternatively, the LUC-tagged IBC cells can by injected via either intra-cardiac or intravenous route of delivery, which promotes rapid tumor colonization, resulting in both visceral and skeletal metastasis. Growth of IBC tumors can then be monitored immediately using BLI, thus eliminating the lag time needed for the physical detection of palpable tumors. BLI imaging also allows for monitoring of the kinetics and location of development of metastatic lesions. Whole transcriptome analysis was performed on IBC cell lines and xenograft tissues to define the heterogeneity of IBC as a distinct variant of breast cancer
Results: These models have allowed us to identify micro-metastatic foci in multiple sites distant from the IBC primary tumor in each of these models of IBC and allow the quantitation of anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects of targeted therapeutics as single agents as well as the potential synergy of combinations of agents. As an example, injection of LUC-tagged IBC cell lines such as SUM149-Luc, into the left ventricle of NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ mice allows the metastatic tumor burden to be monitored longitudinally by whole animal BLI, which can be validated at necropsy and by immunohistochemical analysis. Whole transcriptome analysis of pre-clinical models of IBC reflect the molecular subtypes observed in IBC patients, with the majority of IBC models being of the basal like, luminal B and Her2 amplified. Discussion: First time analysis of known and newly developed pre-clinical models of IBC allows a more complete analysis of IBC as a distinct variant of breast cancer. Furthermore, these approaches allow rapid evaluation of the promising targeted therapeutics identified based on whole transcriptome analysis of both IBC patient tumors and pre-clinical models developed from IBC patients. We believe that this extensive collection of LUC-tagged IBC cell lines is an invaluable tool for IBC research since the cell lines encompass the broad spectrum of IBC heterogeneity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most metastatic variant of locally advanced breast cancer. Although IBC is diagnosed less commonly than other types of breast cancer, it is extremely aggressive, and accounts for a disproportionate number of breast cancer related deaths annually. IBC exhibits very specific patterns of lymphangiogenesis and vasculogenic mimicry, however detailed studies of the genes and proteins involved in these angiogenic processes are lacking. This study performed whole unbiased gene transcription studies with validation by protein arrays using all available pre-clinical cell lines and in vivo xenograft models of IBC, including a new model of IBC, FC-IBC01, which exhibits lymphovascular invasion, to identify the specific pathways involved in the distinctive angiogenesis observed in IBC.
Materials and Methods: Real-time quantitative RT-PCR, cDNA microarray gene profiling, immunofluorescence with confocal imaging and protein arrays were used to examine differential expression of specific angiogenic gene families including VEGFA,B,C,D, VEGF Receptor genes, and ANG/TIE genes linked to angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis.
Results: Activity of the matrix metalloproteinase, MMP-2, is required for IBC tumor cells to undergo vasculogenic mimicry (VM), which is associated with a loss of TIMP-2, a well known inhibitor of angiogenesis. Therapeutics that target MMP activity can successfully inhibit this VM. Furthermore, pre-clinical models of IBC that form IBC tumor emboli exhibit lymphovascular invasion that is associated with distinct patterns of expression of genes that encode for distinct receptor tyrosine kinases that may represent important therapeutic targets for IBC.
Discussion: Identification of the distinct angiogenic pathways that are activated in IBC provides insight into the therapeutic targets that may abrogate the distinct lymphovascular invasion and vasculogenic mimicry that are linked to the aggressive metastasis of IBC.
