Abstract
Oral microbial community, as an important part of human microbial community, is closely related to oral and general health. Oral microbiological research has become the forefront of international microbiological research. Standardized and unified nomenclature for oral microorganisms in Chinese is of great significance to support the development of oral medicine research. Standardized translation of microbial names is the basis for writing canonical and authoritative professional textbooks and reference books, which helps students to accurately acquire the characteristics and classifications of oral microbes. Unified translation of oral microorganisms is also conducive to academic communication and cooperation, and plays an important role in oral health education and science popularization, which enables oral microbiology knowledge to be accurately disseminated to the public. Therefore, in order to standardize the words in scientific research, funding application, publications, academic exchanges and science popularization within the field of oral medicine, we have fully discussed and revised the Chinese names of oral microorganisms in 2017 edition and ones of newly discovered oral microbes, finally reaching a consensus to form the 2023 edition of Chinese names of oral microorganisms.

Abstract
Metabolic fitness of T cells is essential for their vitality, which is largely dependent on the behavior of the mitochondria. The nature of mitochondrial behavior in tumor-infiltrating T cells remains poorly understood. In this study, we show that mitofusin-2 (MFN2) expression is positively correlated with the prognosis of multiple cancers. Genetic ablation of Mfn2 in CD8+ T cells dampens mitochondrial metabolism and function and promotes tumor progression. In tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells, MFN2 enhances mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact by interacting with ER-embedded Ca2+-ATPase SERCA2, facilitating the mitochondrial Ca2+ influx required for efficient mitochondrial metabolism. MFN2 stimulates the ER Ca2+ retrieval activity of SERCA2, thereby preventing excessive mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation and apoptosis. Elevating mitochondria-ER contact by increasing MFN2 in CD8+ T cells improves the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Thus, we reveal a tethering-and-buffering mechanism of organelle cross-talk that regulates the metabolic fitness of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells and highlights the therapeutic potential of enhancing MFN2 expression to optimize T cell function.

Abstract
LZTFL1 is a tumor suppressor located in chromosomal region 3p21.3 that is deleted frequently and early in various cancer types including the kidney cancer. However, its role in kidney tumorigenesis remains unknown. Here we hypothesized a tumor suppressive function of LZTFL1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and its mechanism of action based on extensive bioinformatics analysis of patients' tumor data and validated it using both gain- and loss-functional studies in kidney tumor cell lines and patient-derive xenograft (PDX) model systems. Our studies indicated that LZTFL1 inhibits kidney tumor cell proliferation by destabilizing AKT through ZNRF1-mediated ubiquitin proteosome pathway and inducing cell cycle arrest at G1. Clinically, we found that LZTFL1 is frequently deleted in ccRCC. Downregulation of LZTFL1 is associated with a poor ccRCC outcome and may be used as prognostic maker. Furthermore, we show that overexpression of LZTFL1 in PDX via lentiviral delivery suppressed PDX growth, suggesting that re-expression of LZTFL1 may be a therapeutic strategy against ccRCC.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the application effect of the colonoscopy, fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and novel risk-adapted screening approach in colorectal cancer screening in Xuzhou population. Methods: From May 2018 to April 2019, 4 280 subjects aged 50-74 were recruited from Gulou district, Yunlong district and Quanshan district of Xuzhou. They were randomly assigned to the colonoscopy group (n=863), FIT group (n=1 723) and novel risk-adapted screening approach group (n=1 694) according to the ratio of 1∶2∶2. For the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, after the risk assessment, high-risk subjects were invited to undergo colonoscopy and low-risk subjects were invited to undergo FIT examination. All FIT positive subjects were invited to undergo colonoscopy. Colonoscopy participation rate [(the number of colonoscopies completed/the number of colonoscopies invited to participate)×100%], detection rate of colorectal lesions [(the number of diagnosed patients/the number of colonoscopies completed)×100%], colonoscopy resource load (the number of colonoscopies completed/the number of diagnosed advanced tumors) and FIT resource load in each group were calculated and compared. Results: The age of all subjects was (61±6) years old, including 1 816 males (42.43%). There was no statistically significant difference in the socio-demographic characteristics of the subjects in different screening groups. The colonoscopy participation rate was 22.60% (195/863) in the colonoscopy group, 57.04% (77/135) in the FIT group, and 33.94% (149/439) in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, respectively. The colonoscopy participation rate was higher in the FIT group than in the colonoscopy group and the novel risk-adapted screening approach group (P<0.001). The colonoscopy participation rate of novel risk-adapted screening group was significantly higher than the colonoscopy group (P<0.001). The detection rates of advanced tumors were 6.67% (13/195), 9.09% (7/77) and 8.72% (13/149), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The colonoscopy resource load (95%CI) was 15 (13-17) in the colonoscopy group, 11 (9-14) in the FIT group and 11 (10-13) in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, respectively. Among them, the colonoscopy resource load of high-risk individuals in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group was 12 (9-15). FIT resource loads (95%CI) were 207 (196-218) and 88 (83-94) in the FIT group and the novel risk-adapted screening approach group. Conclusion: The combined application of risk-adapted screening approach and FIT may have a good application effect in colorectal cancer screening.

Abstract
Sunitinib resistance is a major challenge in systemic therapy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in regulating sunitinib resistance of RCC is largely unknown. We established sunitinib-resistant RCC cell lines in vivo. Through RNA-sequencing, we identified circSNX6, whose expression is upregulated in sunitinib-resistant cells compared with their parental cells. High circSNX6 expression was correlated with sunitinib resistance and worse oncologic outcomes in a cohort of 81 RCC patients. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that circSNX6 could promote sunitinib resistance in RCC. circSNX6 acts as a molecular "sponge" to relieve the suppressive effect of microRNA (miR)-1184 on its target gene, glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase 1 (GPCPD1), which increases intracellular lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) levels and, ultimately, promotes sunitinib resistance in RCC cells. Our findings demonstrated that the circSNX6/miR-1184/GPCPD1 axis had a critical role in regulation of intracellular LPA levels and sunitinib resistance in RCC; they also provide a novel prognostic indicator and promising therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Background Only a proportion of patients with bladder cancer may benefit from durable response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. More precise indicators of response to immunotherapy are warranted. Our study aimed to construct a more precise classifier for predicting the benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Methods This multi-cohort study examined the top 20 frequently mutated genes in five cohorts of patients with bladder cancer and developed the TP53/PIK3CA/ATM mutation classifier based on the MSKCC ICI cohort. The classifier was then validated in a validation set consisting of IMvigor210 cohort and Broad/Dana-Farber cohort. The molecular profile and immune infiltration characteristics in each subgroup as defined by this classifier were explored. Results Among all 881 patients with bladder cancer, the mutation frequency of TP53, PIK3CA, and ATM ranked in the top 20 mutated genes. The TP53/PIK3CA/ATM mutation classifier was constructed based on the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) ICI cohort and only showed predictive value for patients with bladder cancer who received ICI therapy (median overall survival: low-risk group, not reached; moderate-risk group, 13.0 months; high-risk group, 8.0 months; P<0.0001). Similar results were found in subgroups of MSKCC ICI cohort defined by tumor mutation burden. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that the risk group defined by the classifier served as an independent prognostic factor for overall survival in patients with bladder cancer. Efficacy of the classifier was verified in a validation set consisting of IMvigor210 cohort and Broad/Dana-Farber cohort. Lower expression of PD-1/PD-L1 and less tumor immune infiltration were observed in the high-risk group than the other two groups of the TCGA cohort and the IMvigor210 cohort. Conclusion Our study constructed a TP53/PIK3CA/ATM mutation classifier to predict the benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for patients with bladder cancer. This classifier can potentially complement the tumor mutation burden and guide clinical ICI treatment decisions according to distinct risk levels.

Abstract
Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of the submandibular gland (also known as Küttner tumor) is characterized by concomitant swelling of the submandibular glands secondary to strong lymphocytic infiltration and fibrosis. The pathogenesis of this disease has been unclear, but it is associated with immune disorders. ADAMTS18 is a member of the ADAMTS superfamily of extracellular proteinases. In this study, we showed that Adamts18 is highly expressed in submandibular salivary gland (SMG) during embryonic development and decreases but is retained in adult SMG tissue in mice. Adamts18 deficiency led to reduced cleft formation and epithelial branching in embryonic SMG before embryonic day 15.5 in mice. No significant histologic changes in the later stages of branching or the morphology of SMG were detected in Adamts18-/- mice. However, Adamts18 deficiency causes spontaneous SMG fibrogenesis and fibrosis in adult mice. At 8 wk of age, Adamts18-/- mice began to manifest the first signs of pathologic changes of mild fibrosis and CD11b+ cell infiltration in SMG tissues. At ≥8 mo, all male and female Adamts18-/- mice developed unilateral or bilateral SMG scleroma that is similar to patients with chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of the submandibular gland. Adamts18-/- mice also showed secretory dysfunction and severe dental caries. Histologically, SMG scleroma is characterized by progressive periductal fibrosis, acinar atrophy, irregular duct ectasis, and dense infiltration of IgG-positive plasma cells. A significant infiltration of CD4+ T lymphocytes and CD11b+ monocytes and macrophages was also detected in the SMG scleroma of Adamts18-/- mice. The levels of TGF-β1, IL-6, and IL-33 were significantly increased in Adamts18-/- SMGs, which induces chronic inflammation and myofibroblast activation, ultimately leading to fibrosis. This study indicates that Adamts18 regulates the early branching morphogenesis of embryonic SMG and plays a role in protecting from spontaneous SMG fibrogenesis via modulating local inflammation, autoimmune reaction, and myofibroblast activation in adult mice.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to exert important roles in tumors, including clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). PVT1 is an important oncogenic lncRNA which has critical effects on onset and development of various cancers, however, the underlying mechanism of PVT1 functioning in ccRCC remains largely unknown. VHL deficiency-induced HIF2α accumulation is one of the major factors for ccRCC. Here, we identified the potential molecular mechanism of PVT1 in promoting ccRCC development by stabilizing HIF2α. PVT1 was significantly upregulated in ccRCC tissues and high PVT1 expression was associated with poor prognosis of ccRCC patients. Both gain-of-function and loss-of function experiments revealed that PVT1 enhanced ccRCC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion and induced tumor angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, PVT1 interacted with HIF2α protein and enhanced its stability by protecting it from ubiquitination-dependent degradation, thereby exerting its biological significance. Meanwhile, HIF2α bound to the enhancer of PVT1 to transactivate its expression. Furthermore, HIF2α specific inhibitor could repress PVT1 expression and its oncogenic functions. Therefore, our study demonstrates that the PVT1/ HIF2α positive feedback loop involves in tumorigenesis and progression of ccRCC, which may be exploited for anticancer therapy.

Abstract
Clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) carries a variable prognosis. Prognostic biomarkers can stratify patients according to risk, and can provide crucial information for clinical decision-making. We screened for an autophagy-related long non-coding lncRNA (lncRNA) signature to improve postoperative risk stratification in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We confirmed this model in ICGC and SYSU cohorts as a significant and independent prognostic signature. Western blotting, autophagic-flux assay and transmission electron microscopy were used to verify that regulation of expression of 8 lncRNAs related to autophagy affected changes in autophagic flow in vitro. Our data suggest that 8-lncRNA signature related to autophagy is a promising prognostic tool in predicting the survival of patients with ccRCC. Combination of this signature with clinical and pathologic parameters could aid accurate risk assessment to guide clinical management, and this 8-lncRNAs signature related to autophagy may serve as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Background To investigate the value of using contrast-enhanced transrectal ultrasound (CETRUS) to reduce unnecessary collection of biopsies during prostate cancer diagnosis and its utility in predicting biochemical recurrence in patients with localized prostate cancer. Methods This was a prospective study of suspected prostate cancer patients who were evaluated with CETRUS followed by a prostate biopsy. Prostate blood flow via CETRUS was graded using a 5-point scale. The relationship between CETRUS score and biopsy outcome was then analyzed for all patients; univariate and multi-variate analyses were used to determine the probable prognostic factors for biochemical recurrence in patients with localized prostate cancer that underwent a radical prostatectomy. Results A total of 347 patients were enrolled in the study. Prostate cancer was found in 164 patients. A significant positive correlation (r = 0.69, p < 0.001) was found between CETRUS scores and prostate cancer incidence. Using CETRUS scores ≥2 as the threshold for when to biopsy could have safely reduced the number of biopsies taken overall by 12.1% (42/347) and spared 23.0% (42/183) of patients from undergoing an unnecessary biopsy. 77 patients with localized prostate cancer underwent a radical prostatectomy. The median follow-up time was 30 months (range: 8–56 months) and 17 of these 77 patients exhibited biochemical recurrence during the follow-up period. 3-year biochemical recurrence-free survival rates were 86% for patients with low CETRUS scores (≤ 3) and 59% for patients with high scores (> 3; p = 0.015). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that CETRUS score was an independent predictor of biochemical recurrence (HR: 7.02; 95% CI: 2.00–24.69; p = 0.002). Conclusions CETRUS scores may be a useful tool for reducing the collection unnecessary biopsy samples during prostate cancer diagnosis and are predictive of biochemical recurrence in patients with localized prostate cancer following a radical prostatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of high-risk localised renal cell carcinoma is key for the selection of patients for adjuvant treatment who are at truly higher risk of reccurrence. We developed a classifier based on single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to improve the predictive accuracy for renal cell carcinoma recurrence and investigated whether intratumour heterogeneity affected the precision of the classifier. METHODS In this retrospective analysis and multicentre validation study, we used paraffin-embedded specimens from the training set of 227 patients from Sun Yat-sen University (Guangzhou, Guangdong, China) with localised clear cell renal cell carcinoma to examine 44 potential recurrence-associated SNPs, which were identified by exploratory bioinformatics analyses of a genome-wide association study from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (KIRC) dataset (n=114, 906 600 SNPs). We developed a six-SNP-based classifier by use of LASSO Cox regression, based on the association between SNP status and patients' recurrence-free survival. Intratumour heterogeneity was investigated from two other regions within the same tumours in the training set. The six-SNP-based classifier was validated in the internal testing set (n=226), the independent validation set (Chinese multicentre study; 428 patients treated between Jan 1, 2004 and Dec 31, 2012, at three hospitals in China), and TCGA set (441 retrospectively identified patients who underwent resection between 1998 and 2010 for localised clear cell renal cell carcinoma in the USA). The main outcome was recurrence-free survival; the secondary outcome was overall survival. FINDINGS Although intratumour heterogeneity was found in 48 (23%) of 206 cases in the internal testing set with complete SNP information, the predictive accuracy of the six-SNP-based classifier was similar in the three different regions of the training set (areas under the curve [AUC] at 5 years: 0·749 [95% CI 0·660-0·826] in region 1, 0·734 [0·651-0·814] in region 2, and 0·736 [0·649-0·824] in region 3). The six-SNP-based classifier precisely predicted recurrence-free survival of patients in three validation sets (hazard ratio [HR] 5·32 [95% CI 2·81-10·07] in the internal testing set, 5·39 [3·38-8·59] in the independent validation set, and 4·62 [2·48-8·61] in the TCGA set; all p<0·0001), independently of patient age or sex and tumour stage, grade, or necrosis. The classifier and the clinicopathological risk factors (tumour stage, grade, and necrosis) were combined to construct a nomogram, which had a predictive accuracy significantly higher than that of each variable alone (AUC at 5 years 0·811 [95% CI 0·756-0·861]). INTERPRETATION Our six-SNP-based classifier could be a practical and reliable predictor that can complement the existing staging system for prediction of localised renal cell carcinoma recurrence after surgery, which might enable physicians to make more informed treatment decisions about adjuvant therapy. Intratumour heterogeneity does not seem to hamper the accuracy of the six-SNP-based classifier as a reliable predictor of recurrence. The classifier has the potential to guide treatment decisions for patients at differing risks of recurrence.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the synergistic effect of silibinin combined with crizotinib on anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive (ALK+ ) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and its mechanism. Methods: H2228 and H3122 cells were treated with silibinin, crizotinib alone or in combination. Cell proliferation was measured by 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and colony formation assay. Migration or invasion ability was tested by wound healing assay or transwell assay, respectively. Expressions of E-Cadherin and vimentin protein were examined by immunofluorescence staining. The protein expressions of ALK, p-ALK, E-Cadherin and Vimentin were detected by western blotting.The anti-cancer effect of silibinin combined with crizotinib in vivo was determined by subcutaneously injecting 2×10(6) H2228 cells into immunodeficient nude mice. Results: The result of MTT assay showed that the cell viability of H2228 or H3122 treated with 100 μmol/L silibinin was (88.38±4.10)% or (72.27±3.62)%, respectively, marginally decreased compared with that of the control. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of H2228 cells treated with crizotinib alone or combined with 100 μmol/L silibinin was (917.10±7.75) nmol/L or (238.73±7.67) nmol/L, respectively. The IC(50) of H3122 cells treated with crizotinib alone or combined with 100 μmol/L silibinin was (472.50±15.70) nmol/L or (206.10±12.01) nmol/L, respectively. The IC(50s) of H2228 and H3122 cells were significantly decreased by combined treatment of crizotinib and silibinin compared to crizotinib treatment alone (P<0.01). When compared with the control group, colony forming ratios of H2228 cells were (83.34±2.72)% in 100 μmol/L silibinin treatment group, (69.42±3.06)% in 400 nmol/L crizotinib treatment group and (27.32±1.42)% in combined treatment group. When compared with the control group, colony forming ratios of H3122 cells were (84.45±5.67)% in 100 μmol/L silibinin treatment group, (45.02±5.83)% in 400 nmol/L crizotinib treatment group and (17.43±3.83)% in combined treatment group. Silibinin combined with crizotinib treatment significantly inhibited the colony formation ability of H2228 and H3122 cells (P<0.01). Migration and invasion results showed that combined treatment of crizotinib and silibinin markedly inhibited the migration and invasion ability of H2228 cells (P<0.01). Western blot results indicated that treated with silibinin alone or in combination of crozitinib for 48 hours, the protein level of E-cadherin in H2228 cells was upregulated, while the expressions of p-ALK and vimentin were downregulated, without obvious alteration of ALK protein expression. In the xenograft model, the mean tumor weight was (9.40±2.58)g in crizotinib treatment group and (4.58±1.07)g in the combined treatment group. The inhibitory effect of tumor growth in vivo of combined treatment was significantly superior to that of crizotinib treatment alone (P<0.05). Conclusion: Silibinin enhances the inhibitory effect of crizotinib on ALK positive NSCLC cells, which may be associated with suppression of ALK activity and mesenchymal-epithelial transition.

Abstract
We previously identified the important role of RIN1 expression in the prognosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The role of RIN1 in ccRCC malignancy and underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here we report that ccRCC cells and tissues expressed more RIN1 than normal controls. Gain‐of‐function and loss‐of‐function studies demonstrated that RIN1 enhanced ccRCC cell growth, migration and invasion abilities in vitro and promoted tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Mechanistic studies revealed that RIN1 has an activating effect on EGFR signaling in ccRCC. In addition, we unveil Rab25, a critical GTPase in ccRCC malignancy, as a functional RIN1 interacting partner. Knockdown of Rab25 eliminated the augmentation of carcinoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion by ectopic RIN1. We also confirmed that RIN1 and Rab25 expression correlates with the overall‐survival of ccRCC patients from TCGA. These findings suggest that RIN1 plays an important oncogenic role in ccRCC malignancy by activation of EGFR signaling through interacting with Rab25, and RIN1 could be employed as an effective therapeutic target for ccRCC.

Abstract
Immunisation registry systems have been shown to be important for finding pockets of under-immunised individuals and for increasing vaccination coverage. The National Immunisation Information System (NIIS) was established in 2003 in Taiwan. In this perspective, we present the construction of the NIIS and two innovative applications, which were implemented in 2009, which link the NIIS with other databases for better control of measles. Firstly, by linking the NIIS with hospital administrative records, we are able to follow up contacts of measles cases in a timely manner to provide the necessary prophylaxis, such as immunoglobulin or vaccines. Since 2009, there have been no measles outbreaks in hospitals in Taiwan. Secondly, by linking the NIIS with an immigration database, we are able to ensure that young citizens under the age of five years entering Taiwan from abroad become fully vaccinated. Since 2009, the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine coverage rate at two years of age has increased from 96% to 98%. We consider these applications of the NIIS to be effective mechanisms for improving the performance of infectious disease control in Taiwan. The experience gained could provide a valuable example for other countries.

Abstract
Background Metabolic risk factors and abnormalities such as obesity and hypertension are rapidly rising among the Chinese population following China’s tremendous economic growth and widespread westernization of lifestyle in recent decades. Limited information is available about the current burden of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in China. Methods We analyzed data on metabolic risk factors among 22,457 adults aged ≥ 32 years participating in the “Zhabei Health 2020” survey (2009–2010), a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of community residents in Zhabei District. We defined MetS using Chinese-specific cut-off points for central obesity according to consensus criteria recently endorsed by several international and national organizations in defining MetS in different populations worldwide. We used a multiple logistic regression model to assess the associations of potential risk factors with MetS. Results The unadjusted prevalence of the MetS was 35.1% for men and 32.5% for women according to the consensus criteria for Chinese. The prevalence increased progressively from 12.1% among participants aged 32–45 years to 45.4% among those aged ≥ 75 years. Age, smoking, family history of diabetes, and education are significantly associated with risk of MetS. Conclusions The MetS is highly prevalent and has reached epidemic proportion in Chinese urban adult community residents.

Abstract
A case of multiple primary primitive neuroectodermal tumours (PNETs), which occurred at different levels of the spinal epidural space successively over a period of 8 months, is reported. A 24-year-old male, presenting with rapidly progressive paralysis, hyperthesia and a posterior epidural mass extending from T8 to T10 revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), exhibited a good recovery after initial emergency surgery. Lower back pain, chest pain and paralysis were subsequently reported. Spinal MRI in month 7 revealed a mass extending from T12 to L1 and another mass extending from T4 to T5 was detected epidurally in month 8. Additional operations were performed and radiotherapy was given. Pathological findings were consistent with PNETs and symptoms improved with treatment, particularly following each surgical excision.

Abstract
Kinetic results in this paper show that, contrary to earlier reports, pig pancreatic prophospholipase A(2) (proPLA2) does not hydrolyze monodisperse short chain phosphatidylcholine below the critical micelle concentration. ProPLA2 is active on an anionic interface, but at a rate that is decreased by more than 100-fold compared to that of PLA2, the active form. Solution studies show that both proPLA2 and PLA2 bind to an anionic interface and also bind a tetrahedral intermediate mimic at the active site. The 1.5 A resolution crystal structure of the anion-assisted dimer of proPLA2 reported in this paper is compared with the corresponding structure for PLA2 [Pan, Y. H., et al. (2001) Biochemistry 40, 609-617]. As a mimic for the forms bound to the anionic interface, these structures provide insights into the possible structural basis for the impaired chemical step of the zymogen. The proPLA2 dimer contained within one crystallographic asymmetric unit has one molecule of the inhibitor 1-hexadecyl-3-(trifluoroethyl)-sn-glycero-2-phosphomethanol and is bridged by four coplanar sulfate anions. Relative to the structure of PLA2, the subunit contact surface in proPLA2 displays a tilted orientation, an altered mode of inhibitor binding, displacement of a mechanistically significant loop that includes Tyr69, and a critical active site water seen in PLA2 that is not seen in proPLA2. These differences are interpreted to suggest possible origins of the functional differences between the pro and active enzyme at an anionic interface. A structural origin of this difference is discussed in terms of the calcium-coordinated activated water mechanism of the esterolysis reaction. Together, a comparison of the structures of the anion-assisted dimers of PLA2 and proPLA2 not only offers an explanation of why the zymogen form is k(cat)-impaired and binds poorly even to the anionic interface but also supports a mechanism for the activated enzyme that includes a critical second-sphere assisting water bridging His48 and the calcium-coordinated catalytic water.

Abstract
We report the structures of the crystallographic dimer of porcine pancreatic IB phospholipase A(2) (PLA2) with either five sulfate or phosphate anions bound. In each structure, one molecule of a tetrahedral mimic MJ33 [1-hexadecyl-3-(trifluoroethyl)-sn-glycero-2-phosphomethanol] and the five anions are shared between the two subunits of the dimer. The sn-2-phosphate of MJ33 is bound in the active site of one subunit (A), and the alkyl chain extends into the active site slot of the second subunit (B) across the subunit-subunit interface. The two subunits are packed together with a large hydrophobic and desolvated surface buried between them along with the five anions that define a plane. The anions bind by direct contact with two cationic residues (R6 and K10) per subunit and through closer-range H-bonding interactions with other polarizable ligands. These features of the "dimer" suggest that the binding of PLA2 to the anionic groups at the anionic interface may be dominated by coordination through H-bonding with only a partial charge compensation needed. Remarkably, the plane defined by the contact surface is similar to the i-face of the enzyme [Ramirez, F., and Jain, M. K. (1991) Proteins: Struct., Funct., Genet. 9, 229-239], which has been proposed to make contact with the substrate interface for the interfacial catalytic turnover. Additionally, these structures not only offer a view of the active PLA2 complexed to an anionic interface but also provide insight into the environment of the tetrahedral intermediate in the rate-limiting chemical step of the turnover cycle. Taken together, our results offer an atomic-resolution structural view of the i-face interactions of the active form of PLA2 associated to an anionic interface.

Abstract
Moving the information instead of the patient is often sufficient and telemedicine is a useful and potentially powerful tool which fulfils this idea. It has changed the classical form of health-care delivery by providing those people living in rural and remote areas with comparable services to those in urban areas. Equally, remote hospitals can obtain specialist consultations and diagnosis without the need for the patient to travel. We have reviewed the present status of telemedicine and its future possibilities.

Abstract
We have reported previously that the rodent carcinogen 2,4-diaminotoluene (2,4-DAT) is not activated as a mutagen to the standard Ames S. typhimurium tester strains when oxidized by prostaglandin H synthase (PHS). 2,4-DAT does, however, enhance the bacterial mutagenicity of the potent mutagen 2-aminofluorene (2-AF) when both compounds are incubated with the PHS activating system. Enhancement of activation of 2-AF would provide a plausible mechanism for the observed co-mutagenicity of 2,4-DAT. Co-incubation with 100 microM 2,4-DAT, however, inhibited the total metabolism of 25 microM 2-AF by 60% in both the PHS/H2O2 system and PHS/arachidonic acid system. The inhibition included a 75% decrease in the formation of water-soluble and protein-bound metabolites and about a 35% decrease in production of the peroxidative metabolites 2-nitrofluorene (NF) and 2-aminodifluorenylamine (ADFA). Azofluorene (AzF) production was the most sensitive to the effects of 2,4-DAT, exhibiting an 80% decrease in both PHS-catalyzed systems. No new 2-AF derived products were observed in the presence of 2,4-DAT. This pronounced inhibition of 2-AF metabolism by 2,4-DAT also was observed in incubations of the aromatic amines with PHS in the presence of S. typhimurium strain TA98. Bacterial N-acetylation of 2-AF did not appear to be an important reaction in any of these incubations. 2,4-DAT not only inhibited 2-AF metabolism by PHS, but also decreased the level of 2-AF covalent binding to the bacterial DNA by as much as 81%. This stands in sharp contrast to the enhancement of the mutagenicity of 2-AF elicited by 2,4-DAT in these same incubations. This clear dissociation between the extent of peroxidative activation, and resultant covalent modification of bacterial DNA, by 2-AF and the subsequent mutagenic response indicates that a metabolic interaction is not involved in the co-mutagenicity of 2,4-DAT.

Abstract
Combined extracranial and transcranial Doppler (TCD) instruments were used to study the hemodynamics of 20 patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) proved angiographically. It was discovered that the flow velocities in AVM-feeding arteries and their proximal arteries were increased; the increase of flow velocities in feeding arteries close to AVM was more remarkable than that in feeding-arteries proximal to extracranial internal carotid artery far from AVM; pulsating indexes of AVM-feeding arteries were decreased; increase of flow velocities in AVM-feeding arteries was related to the decrease of pulsating index; the flow velocities of nontapering feeding arteries were faster than those of tapering arteries; the greater the size of AVM, the faster the velocity in feeding artery; and the flow velocities and pulsating indexes of AVM-feeding arteries were gradually recovered to normal 3-5 weeks after resection of AVM. It is believed that increase of flow velocity in AVM-feeding artery is associated with distention and decreased resistance of flow in AVM-feeding artery. TCD combined with CT scans are helpful to the diagnosis of AVM. Combination of TCD and cerebral angiography (CAG) to evaluate comprehensively the preoperative hemodynamics of AVM and to monitor postoperative changes is helpful to detecting cerebral steal due to steal leakage in circle of Willis and preventing the hazardous postoperative complications caused by pressure breakthrough of normal perfusion.

Abstract
The interaction between the sulfite anion and specific benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) derivatives produces a novel class of benzo[a]pyrene sulfonates. (+/-)-7,8,9-Trihydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene-10-sulfonate (B[a]PT-10-sulfonate) is formed in high yields in incubations containing (+/-)-7r,8t-dihydroxy-9t,10t-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyre ne (anti-BPDE) and sulfite, and sulfite strongly enhances the mutagenicity of the diolepoxide toward Salmonella typhimurium under those conditions. Although B[a]PT-10-sulfonate itself shows little direct mutagenicity over a 1-20 microM concentration range, this reactive bay-region intermediate does enhance the mutagenicity of anti-BPDE in strains TA98 and TA100 by up to 280%. No significant enhancement was seen when up to 20 microM B[a]PT-10-sulfonate was used in concert with another direct-acting mutagen, N-acetoxy-acetylaminofluorene (N-AcO-AAF). The isomeric product derived from sulfite and (+/-)-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P-7,8-diol) is (+/-)-7,8,10-trihydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene-9-sulfonate (B[a]PT-9-sulfonate). Like B[a]PT-10-sulfonate, B[a]PT-9-sulfonate is not mutagenic to strains TA97, TA98 and TA100. This sulfonate exhibited little enhancing activity with anti-BPDE over a 1-20 microM concentration range, but did enhance the mutagenic response of strain TA98 to 0.2 microM N-Aco-AAF by up to 128%. Sulfite, anti-BPDE and B[a]PT-sulfonates were also examined for the ability to induce a forward mutation at the hgprt locus (8-azaguanine resistance) in strains of S.typhimurium. Sulfite caused a marked enhancement of forward mutation due to anti-BPDE in both TA98 and TA100. Surprisingly, concurrent administration of B[a]PT-10-sulfonate with anti-BPDE did not increase the number of mutant colonies. The extensive conversion of anti-BPDE to B[a]PT-10-sulfonate under conditions where sulfite enhances diolepoxide mutagenicity, when coupled with this enhancement of diolepoxide mutagenicity by B[a]PT-10-sulfonate in the reverse mutation assay, supports this novel B[a]P derivative as a mediator of the sulfite-dependent enhancement of B[a]P genotoxicity. Determining why this enhancing effect was not seen when selecting for mutation at the hgprt locus of S.typhimurium will require further study.

Abstract
The Ki-ras proto-oncogene is activated by specific point mutations and is the transforming gene often identified in rodent and human lung tumors. An in vitro model to aid in the study of the consequences of Ki-ras activation and expression in mouse lung is needed. Accordingly, we have examined cell lines derived from chemically induced mouse lung tumors as well as spontaneous transformants of untreated mouse lung epithelial cells. The specific Ki-ras-activating gene mutations and the level of mRNA expression were examined for each cell line. Polymerase chain reaction and oligonucleotide hybridization were used to demonstrate that five of seven transformed lung cell lines contain codon 61 Ki-ras-activating mutations, resulting in an arginine substitution for wild-type glutamine. One transformed line contained this activating mutation and had also lost, or contained an altered, wild-type codon 61 Ki-ras allele. No codon 12 Ki-ras mutations were observed. Two transformed and two nontransformed epithelial lung cell lines contained only the wild-type codon 12 and 61 Ki-ras alleles. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that the Ki-ras mRNA was present in all the cell lines and was overexpressed in some, but not all, of the transformed lung cell lines. Those transformed lines with the highest levels of Ki-ras mRNA also expressed more H4-histone mRNA, suggesting that these cells have a greater proliferation rate. The level of Ki-ras mRNA increased during the proliferation of the nontransformed lung cells but then decreased upon reaching confluency. In contrast, the level of Ki-ras mRNA in the transformed lung cells was high during both growth and confluency, suggesting a potential defect in the regulation of Ki-ras in these cells. These lung cell lines will help provide a better understanding of the regulation of both the Ki-ras proto-oncogene and oncogene in the lung.

Abstract
In this article we report on a time-lapse microcinematographic and phase contrast study of the cell reformation of yolk granules which were isolated from mature oocytes in the genital sac of the middle female intersex of Chirocephalus nankinensis. The observations on yolk granules were made in fixed positions and the morphological changes of cell reformation were continuously recorded in vitro. The transformation of yolk granules into cellular structures may be tentatively described as follows: At the early stages in culture, it can be seen that the granular or bubbly structures gradually appear within the hyaloid and homogeneous yolk granules; the appearance of yolk granules gradually changes from elliptical into round shape. With further transformation, their appearances in general take the shape of oblate spheroids, their size is smaller than before and inside the yolk granules their granular and bubbly structures become more and more obvious. Finally, the nuclear and cellular structures can be seen in these transforming yolks. By means of time-lapse microcinematographic and phase contrast examinations in fixed positions, single yolk granules obtained from the mature oocyte with little amounts of adhering cytoplasm are continuously recorded and have been shown to occur, steadily and gradually build up cellular structures by self-organization and self-assembly. Up to the present, we have cultured these kinds of cellular organizations repeatedly. Therefore, it can be concluded that the existence of cell reformation on the basis of yolk granules according to the dynamic morphological changes is an objective reality.

Abstract
Spectrophotometric titration of Formosan cobra cardiotoxin showed that two of the three tyrosyl residues were titrated freely with a normal apparent pKa of 9.6 whereas the remaining one ionized at pH above 11.0. Nitration of cardiotoxin in Tris . HCl buffer with tetranitromethane resulted in the selective nitration of tyrosine 11 and tyrosine 22. It also revealed that tyrosine 51 was the abnormal one in the spectrophotometric titration. Complete nitration occurred in the presence of 6.0 M guanidine hydrochloride. Compared with the conformation of native cardiotoxin, the peptide conformation of the partially nitrated cardiotoxin did not change significantly but the conformation of the completely nitrated cardiotoxin changed remarkably. The biological activity of cardiotoxin was indeed affected by nitration, but the immunological activity was nearly intact even when all the tyrosine residues were nitrated.
