目的探讨miR-363-5p靶向三结构域蛋白14(TRIM14)对3种乳腺癌细胞系凋亡的影响。 方法采用实时荧光定量PCR法比较不同化疗药物诱导3种乳腺癌细胞(MCF-7、MDA-MB-435、MCF-12A)中miR-363-5p和TRIM14 mRNA表达水平,采用免疫组化法检测不同亚型乳腺癌组织TRIM14表达情况。采用Western blotting检测TRIM14蛋白表达。采用流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡情况。应用生物信息学方法预测miR-363-5p与TRIM14的结合位点,通过干扰miR-363-5p和TRIM14研究miR-363-5p对3种乳腺癌细胞中TRIM14的调控作用。Pearson相关分析各亚型乳腺癌组织中miR-363-5p与TRIM14的相关性。 结果3种化疗药物均能促进细胞凋亡,化疗药物处理3种亚型乳腺癌细胞后miR-363-5p表达上升,TRIM14 mRNA表达下降。荧光素酶报告基因实验发现TRIM14是miR-363-5p的靶基因。过表达miR-363-5p后,3种亚型乳腺癌细胞凋亡率上升,TRIM14蛋白和mRNA下降。敲低TRIM14后3种亚型乳腺癌细胞凋亡率上升,过表达TRIM14后3种亚型乳腺癌细胞凋亡率下降。3种亚型乳腺癌组织miR-363-5p与TRIM14表达呈负相关。 结论化疗药物诱导3种亚型乳腺癌细胞后miR-363-5p表达上升,miR-363-5p靶向抑制TRIM14表达,促进3种乳腺癌细胞系凋亡。     

凝血因子XI基因变异致下消化道出血病因分析

目的：对1 例遗传性凝血因子Ⅺ（FⅪ）缺陷症患者行内镜下直肠息肉摘除术后出现下消化道异常出血进行病因分析,探讨FⅪ基因变异与治疗后下消化道出血的关系。方法：家系调查（共3 代5 人）。检测患者及其家系成员相关凝血指标。提取外周血基因组DNA进行PCR扩增,采用DNA直接测序法分析患者FⅪ基因的全部外显子、侧翼序列、5’和3’端非翻译区序列,及家系成员相应的变异位点区域。用PyMol软件构建基因变异前后蛋白模型。结果：患者因“直肠息肉摘除术后3 d,血便2 d”入院。凝血指标检查显示患者的活化部分凝血活酶时间（APTT）、FⅪ活性（FⅪ:C）和FⅪ抗原（FⅪ:Ag）分别为50.9 s、53%和47.2%;其父亲上述3 项指标分别为45.4 s、44%和43.1%。DNA测序发现患者及其父亲的FⅪ基因第8号外显子均存在c.841C＞T杂合无义变异（p.Gln281*）。蛋白模型分析显示p.Gln281*变异会产生截短蛋白。结论：该家系FⅪ基因第8号外显子c.841C＞T（NM_000128）杂合无义变异与其FⅪ水平减低有关,可能也是该患者行内镜下直肠息肉摘除术后出现下消化道异常出血的主要原因。

Efficacy and safety of tacrolimus versus corticosteroid as initial monotherapy in adult-onset minimal change disease: a meta-analysis

Objective

The objective of this meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (TAC) monotherapy versus corticosteroid as initial monotherapy in adult-onset minimal change disease (MCD) patients.

Methods

Databases including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang database were searched from the inception to March 20, 2021. Eligible studies comparing TAC monotherapy and corticosteroid as initial monotherapy for adult-onset MCD patients were included. Data were analyzed using Review Manager Version 5.3.

Results

Four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 196 patients were included in the meta-analysis. For initial monotherapy for adult-onset MCD, TAC and corticosteroid had similar complete remission (OR 1.06, 95% CI 0.47–2.41, P?=?0.89), total remission (OR 1.30, 95% CI 0.39–4.35, P?=?0.67), relapse rate (OR 0.63, 95% CI 0.28–1.42, P?=?0.26). Main drug-related adverse effects of two therapeutic regimens had no difference concerning infection (OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.23–1.27, P?=?0.15), glucose intolerance (OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.16–1.84, P?=?0.33) and acute renal failure (OR 1.37, 95% CI 0.36–7.31, P?=?0.71).

Conclusion

TAC monotherapy is comparable with corticosteroid monotherapy in initial therapy of MCD. To further confirm the conclusion, more large multicenter RCTs are necessary.

     

Association of histological subtype with risk of recurrence in craniopharyngioma patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis

It is controversial whether there is a different risk of recurrence between two histological subtypes in craniopharyngioma (CP) patients. Some reported that adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) had a higher risk of recurrence than papillary craniopharyngioma (PCP), but others reported that there is no significant difference between them. So, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the association between the histological subtype of CP and the rate of recurrence. A comprehensive literature search was undertaken in PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science for all English articles published up to November 2020. Recurrence data stratified by ACP and PCP were extracted from studies meeting inclusion criteria. A pooled analysis of the association between the histological subtype of craniopharyngioma and rates of recurrence was performed. Thirteen articles containing 974 patients were included. When stratified by two pathological subtypes, the total recurrence rate of ACP was 26.0% and PCP was 14.1%, which showed ACP associated with a higher risk of tumor recurrence than PCP (odds ratio [OR]?=?2.12, 95% confidence interval [CI]?=?1.36, 3.30, P?=?0.00). This is the first meta-analysis focusing on histological subtypes of CP. PCP associates with a lower risk of recurrence than ACP, indicating that ACP could act as one of recurrence risk factors for CP patients. Nevertheless, large sample size and well-designed multicenter studies in which the other clinical variables are controlled to determine the histological subtype of CP as an independent recurrence risk factor are needed.

胎盘型谷胱甘肽S－转移酶在人乳腺癌的免疫组化检测

应用抗人胎盘型谷胱甘肽Ｓ－转移酶（ＧＳＴ－π）单克隆抗体，以微波ＬＳＡＢ免疫组化技术，检测了ＧＳＴ－π在人乳腺癌中的表达情况。１３２例乳腺癌中，７８．，８％（１０４／１３２）呈阳性表达。ＧＳＴ－π表达与患者年龄、肿瘤大小及腋窝淋巴结转移无明显相关，与组织学类型有一定关系，ＧＳＴ－π在ＥＲ（一）乳腺癌的阳性表达率９１．３％，显著高于ＥＲ（＋）者６４．４％（Ｐ＜０．０１），同样ＧＳＴ－π在ＰＲ（一）乳腺癌的阳性率８８．２％，也显著高于ＰＲ（＋）者６６．７％（Ｐ＜０．０５）。结果表明，ＧＳＴ－π的表达与乳腺癌发生、发展的关系密切，且与ＥＲ和ＰＲ的表达呈明显负相关，文中就其临床意义进行了讨论。     

Brain‐dead donor heart conservation with a preservation solution supplemented by a conditioned medium from mesenchymal stem cells improves graft contractility after transplantation

Hearts are usually procured from brain‐dead (BD) donors. However, brain death may induce hemodynamic instability, which may contribute to posttransplant graft dysfunction. We hypothesized that BD‐donor heart preservation with a conditioned medium (CM) from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) would improve graft function after transplantation. Additionally, we explored the PI3K pathway's potential role. Rat MSCs‐derived CM was used for conservation purposes. Donor rats were either exposed to sham operation or brain death by inflation of a subdural balloon‐catheter for 5.5 hours. Then, the hearts were explanted, stored in cardioplegic solution‐supplemented with either a medium vehicle (BD and sham), CM (BD + CM), or LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K (BD + CM + LY), and finally transplanted. Systolic performance and relaxation parameters were significantly reduced in BD‐donors compared to sham. After transplantation, systolic and diastolic functions were significantly decreased, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase‐mediated dUTP nick end‐labeling (TUNEL)‐positive cells and endonuclease G positive cells were increased in the BD‐group compared to sham. Preservation of BD‐donor hearts with CM resulted in a recovery of systolic graft function (dP/dt_max: BD + CM: 3148 ± 178 vs BD: 2192 ± 94 mm Hg/s at 110 µL, P < .05) and reduced apoptosis. LY294002 partially lowered graft protection afforded by CM in the BD group. Our data suggest that PI3K/Akt pathway is not the primary mechanism of action of CM in improving posttransplant cardiac contractility and preventing caspase‐independent apoptosis.
