Synchronous ileal and colonic adenocarcinomas associated with Crohn's disease: report of a case with a focus on genetic alterations and carcinogenesis

Patients with Crohn's disease have an increased risk of developing intestinal tumours. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain poorly understood. To address this question, this report describes an unusual case of Crohn's disease complicated by synchronous small intestinal and colonic adenocarcinomas. Genetic events in both the tumours and their adjacent mucosae were evaluated and the tumorigenesis of these cancers is discussed.     

Correction to: Cichorium intybus L. promotes intestinal uric acid excretion by modulating ABCG2 in experimental hyperuricemia

The study of sex differences in hyperuricemia can provide not only a theoretical basis for this clinical phenomenon but also new therapeutic targets for urate-lowering therapy. In the current study, we aimed to confirm that estradiol can promote intestinal ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) expression to increase urate excretion through the PI3K/Akt pathway. The estradiol levels of hyperuricemia/gout patients and healthy controls were compared, and a hyperuricemia mouse model was used to observe the urate-lowering effect of estradiol and the changes in ABCG2 expression in the kidney and intestine. In vivo and in vitro intestinal urate transport models were established to verify the urate transport function regulated by estradiol. The molecular pathway by which estradiol regulates ABCG2 expression in intestinal cells was explored. The estradiol level of hyperuricemia/gout patients was significantly lower than that of healthy controls. Administering estradiol benzoate (EB) to both male hyperuricemic mice and female mice after removing the ovaries confirmed the urate-lowering effect of estradiol, and hyperuricemia and estradiol upregulated the expression of intestinal ABCG2. Estradiol has been confirmed to promote urate transport by upregulating ABCG2 expression in intestinal urate excretion models in vivo and in vitro. Estradiol regulates the expression of intestinal ABCG2 through the PI3K/Akt pathway. Our study revealed that estradiol regulates intestinal ABCG2 through the PI3K/Akt pathway to promote urate excretion, thereby reducing serum urate levels.     

进展期胃癌多药耐药基因表达的临床意义

目的 探讨多药耐药基因（MDR1基因）在人胃癌组织中的表达及其与临床病理的关系。方法 采用逆转录－多聚酶链反应（RT－PCR）法检测了215例手术切除的进展期胃癌组织中的MDR1基因的表达。实验数据采用SAS软件中的χ^2检验和Fisher’s exact P做统计学处理。结果 MDRI基因的阳性率为31．63％（68／215）,与年龄、性别、组织学类型、分化程度、淋巴结转移、Borromann分型及TNM分期等无关,但在分化差的肿瘤中有增高趋势,如黏液腺癌及印戒细胞癌中达41．67％及50．00％。结论 化疗前胃癌组织中MDRI基因即存在较高的表达率,这为选用化疗药物和MDR逆转剂提供了参考指标,但不能作为制定化疗方案的唯一指标。     

Targeting NF-κB c-Rel in regulatory T cells to treat corneal transplantation rejection

The relevance of Tregs in the induction of tolerance against corneal allografts has been well established. Although it is well known that the conversion of Tregs into effector-like cells contributes to the loss of corneal immune privilege, the underlying mechanism is still not fully understood. Using heterologous penetrating keratoplasty model, we found that Tregs from corneal allograft rejected mice (inflam-Tregs) exhibit impaired function and characteristics of effector T cells. Further study showed that the expression of NF-κB c-Rel, a key mediator of effector T cell function, was significantly increased in inflam-Tregs. Mechanistic study revealed that elevated NF-κB c-Rel level in inflam-Tregs impaired Treg function through the promotion of inflammatory cytokine production and glycolysis. More importantly, we demonstrated that targeting NF-κB c-Rel was able to improve the immune suppressive function of inflam-Tregs in vitro and enhance the potential of them to suppress corneal transplantation rejection. Therefore, our current study identified NF-κB c-Rel as a key mediator of the conversion of Tregs into effector-like cells when under inflammatory environment.     

A nationwide post-marketing survey of knowledge,attitude and practice toward human papillomavirus vaccine in general population: Implications for vaccine roll-out in mainland China

BackgroundHuman papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has been increasingly discussed in mainland China since its first approval in 2016. To date, nearly all studies assessing HPV vaccine perceptions and attitudes were implemented during pre-licensure period. Therefore, the nationwide post-marketing survey was conducted to update knowledge, attitudes and practice on HPV vaccine among general population in mainland China.MethodsParticipants aged 18–45 years living in mainland China were recruited in April 2019 by multi-stage non-randomized sampling. Sociodemographic factors, HPV and HPV vaccine related awareness, knowledge, attitudes, vaccine uptake and potential obstacles were assessed in questionnaires. Bivariate analysis and multivariate regression were used to identify disparity among subgroups with different sociodemographic characteristics.Results4,000 women (32.1 ± 7.81y) and 1,000 men (31.8 ± 7.96y) were included in final analysis. Less than one third of participants had heard of HPV (female: 31%; male: 22%) and HPV vaccine (female: 34%; male: 23%). Knowledge score was also unfavorable on HPV (female: 3 out of 13; male: 1.8 out of 13) and HPV vaccine (female: 3 out of 6; male: 2 out of 5). Only 3% females had been vaccinated three years after HPV licensure in China, although willingness to get vaccinated among those unvaccinated were high (mean willingness score ± SD: female: 3.3 ± 0.97; male: 3.0 ± 0.98). Industry of employment and household income were the major factors related to awareness and knowledge of vaccine, whereas HPV and HPV vaccine awareness were key influential factors for willingness. The main obstacles of vaccination were safety concerns, lack of knowledge, and high price of HPV vaccines.ConclusionsFindings highlight a lack of vaccine awareness, knowledge, and poor uptake in mainland China and underscore the necessity of health education campaigns. The identified priority groups, contents to be delivered and practical obstacles could furthermore provide insight into health education to reduce disparities and accelerate HPV vaccine roll-out in China.     

Ca2+ channel actions of the non-dihydropyridine Ca2+ channel antagonist Ro 40-5967 in vascular muscle cells cultured from dog coronary and saphenous arteries

Summary We studied the membrane effects of (1S,2S)-2-(2-[[3-2(benzimidazolyl) propyllmethylamino]ethyl)-6-fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-l-isopropyl-2-naphthyl-methoxy-acetate dihydrochloride, Ro 40-5967, a new non-dihydropyridine (DHP) Ca²⁺ channel antagonist, on dog coronary and saphenous arterial vascular muscle cells using the whole-cell patch-clamp method. Long-lasting (L-type) inward currents in 20 mM Ba²⁺ were measured over a range of test potentials (300 ms) from –50 mV to + 90 mV from a holding potential of –80 mV in the presence of 1 M Bay k8644 (a DHP Ca²⁺ agonist). Ro 40-5967 caused a concentration-dependent suppression of Ca²⁺ channel currents in muscle cells from both arteries, with greater potency on coronary than saphenous arterial cells. The concentration of Ro 40-5967 which inhibited the magnitude of peak inward currents by 50% (IC₅₀) was estimated to be 1 M (n = 5) in muscle cells from coronary artery and 10 M (n = 4) in saphenous artery. Ro 40-5967 (1 M) decreased the amplitude of the activation current-voltage relationship for coronary L-type Ca²⁺ channel currents over a wider range of membrane potentials than verapamil, diltiazem, or nifedipine. In contrast, block of Ca²⁺ channel currents in saphenous artery cells by 1 M Ro 40-5967 was only observed at command potentials positive to 0 mV. Ro 40-5967 (1 M) significantly shifted the voltage-inactivation curve downward by 40% in coronary (n = 4), but only by 18% in saphenous arterial muscle cells (n = 3). The non-parallel shift of the coronary artery inactivation curve suggests that pronounced resting channel block is a notable feature of Ro 40-5967. The marked inhibition of Ba²⁺ current by 1 M Ro 40-5967 in the inactivation protocol in coronary arterial muscle cells was found over the entire range of membrane holding potentials tested, while inhibition in the saphenous artery inactivation curve occurred only from holding potentials more positive than –40 mV. Therefore, Ro 40-5967 is unique: 1) in acting over a wider range of voltages, on both instantaneous and resting Ca²⁺ currents, than other Ca²⁺ antagonists; 2) in producing more significant resting state block; and 3) in acting with selectivity for coronary over saphenous arteries.This research was supported by National Institutes of Health grants HL38537, HL38645, and by F.
