Nonetheless, HCC remains a major public health issue as one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide and one of the leading causes of death caused by cancer in China. Hepatocarcinogenesis is a very complex biological process associated with many environmental risk factors and factors in heredity, including abnormal activation of cellular and molecular signaling pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin, hedgehog, MAPK, AKT, and ERK signaling pathways, and the balance between the activation and inactivation of the proto-oncogenes and anti-oncogenes, and the differentiation of liver cancer stem cells. Molecule-targeted therapy, a new approach for the treatment of liver cancer, blocks the growth of cancer cells by interfering with the molecules required for carcinogenesis and tumor growth, making it both specific and selective. However, there is no one drug completely designed for liver cancer, and further development in the research of liver cancer targeted drugs is now almost stagnant. The purpose of this review is to discuss recent advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of HCC and in the development of novel strategies for cancer therapeutics.展开更多

Thus, we systematically searched cohort and case-control studies investigating the associations of active and passive smoking with breast cancer risk among Chinese females in four English databases(PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Wiley) and three Chinese databases(CNKI, WanFang, and VIP). Fifty-one articles(3 cohort studies and 48 casecontrol studies) covering 17 provinces of China were finally included in this systematic review. Among Chinese females, there was significant association between passive smoking and this risk of breast cancer [odds ratio(OR): 1.62; 95% confidence interval(CI): 1.39–1.85; I2 = 75.8%, P < 0.001; n = 26] but no significant association between active smoking and the risk of breast cancer(OR: 1.04; 95% CI: 0.89–1.20; I2 = 13.9%, P = 0.248; n = 31). The OR of exposure to husband's smoking and to smoke in the workplace was 1.27(95% CI: 1.07–1.50) and 1.66(95% CI: 1.07–2.59), respectively. The OR of light and heavy passive smoking was 1.11 and 1.41, respectively, for women exposed to their husband's smoke(< 20 and ≥ 20 cigarettes per day), and 1.07 and 1.87, respectively, for those exposed to smoke in the workplace(< 300 and ≥ 300 min of exposure per day). These results imply that passive smoking is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, and the risk seems to increase as the level of passive exposure to smoke increases among Chinese females. Women with passive exposure to smoke in the workplace have a higher risk of breast cancer than those exposed to their husband's smoking.展开更多

METHODS: This cross-sectional study investigated children with bilateral CC aged 3-8 y(CC group) using Conners’ Parent Rating Scale-48(CPRS-48) from July to December 2016. The abnormal rates of psychological symptoms in CC children and normal vision(NV) children were compared using the Chi-square test. The scores of CC children were compared with those of NV children and the Chinese urban norm using the independent samples t-test and one-sample t-test, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The ratio of CC children to NV children was 119:143. The overall rate of psychological symptoms in CC children was 2.28 times higher than that in NV children(46.22% vs 20.28%, Pearson’s χ2=20.062;P<0.001). CC children showed higher scores for conduct problems, learning problems, impulsiveness/hyperactivity, anxiety, and hyperactivity index than NV children and the Chinese urban norm, particularly between the ages of 3 and 5 y. Furthermore, male children aged between 6 and 8 y showed a higher impulsive/hyperactive score than females of the same age(t=6.083, P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Children with bilateral CCs have a higher rate of ADHD symptoms than children with NV. This study provides clinical evidence that screening for psychological symptoms and particularly for ADHD symptoms in children with bilateral CC are recommended for an early diagnosis and timely treatment.展开更多

Methods The clinical data of 172 patients with locally advanced primary NPCs who were treated from January 2009 to December 2012 were collected. Tumor regression was evaluated based on the results of the computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging studies. Data about the tumor diameters before and after induction chemotherapy and after radiotherapy as well as the survival times of the patients were obtained. Results All 172 patients had NPCs. After radiotherapy, the TVRR in patients without residual tumor cells was higher than that in patients with residual tumor cells after induction chemotherapy(median values: 47.7% and 15.1%, respectively), and the 5-year survival rates were 80.3% and 45.6%, respectively. Neck lymph node metastasis was observed in 161 of 172 patients, and the TVRRs were similar(median values: 46.8% in 161 patients without residual tumor cells and 11.1% in 161 patients with residual tumor cells). The 5-year survival rate of the 161 patients without residual tumor cells was 84.5%, and that of patients with residual tumor cells was 37.3%. As shown by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve, the area under the curve(AUC) of the ROC curve for TVRRs in patients with primary NPCs but without residual tumors was 0.851, whereas that for TVRRs in patients with neck lymph node metastasis but without residual tumors was 0.784. This result indicates that TVRR has a high diagnostic performance. The univariate Cox regression analysis showed that clinical stage, TVRR in primary NPCs, neck lymph node metastatic lesions before and after induction chemotherapy, presence or absence of residual tumor cells in primary NPCs, and neck lymph node metastatic lesions after radiotherapy were significantly correlated to overall survival(OS). Results of the multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that clinical stage and presence or absence of residual tumor cells in the lymph nodes after radiotherapy were the independent prognostic factors of OS.Conclusion The TVRR after induction chemotherapy may be an effective predictive indicator of the treatment efficacy of radiotherapy in patients with NPC.展开更多

The current treatment for CNV focuses primarily on topical eyedrops of glucocorticoids,non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, electro-coagulation and laser photo-coagulation. Unfortunately,coagulation-based treatment is restricted by corneal hemorrhage and iris atrophy. And drug treatments have limited therapeutic effects and a short duration of action. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems are widely applied due to their improved pharmacokinetics, optimized drug targeting and enhanced biocompatibility. In this article, we provide a comprehensive and systematic overview of the CNV nanodrug system, highlighting some of the recent advances in nanodrug design, preparation, and functional modification. Moreover, we discuss the challenges in the clinical translation and potential risks in CNV treatment. A greater effort is needed for the potential applications of nanotechnology in the field of ophthalmology.展开更多

文摘The incidence and mortality of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) have fallen dramatically in China and elsewhere over the past several decades. Nonetheless, HCC remains a major public health issue as one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide and one of the leading causes of death caused by cancer in China. Hepatocarcinogenesis is a very complex biological process associated with many environmental risk factors and factors in heredity, including abnormal activation of cellular and molecular signaling pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin, hedgehog, MAPK, AKT, and ERK signaling pathways, and the balance between the activation and inactivation of the proto-oncogenes and anti-oncogenes, and the differentiation of liver cancer stem cells. Molecule-targeted therapy, a new approach for the treatment of liver cancer, blocks the growth of cancer cells by interfering with the molecules required for carcinogenesis and tumor growth, making it both specific and selective. However, there is no one drug completely designed for liver cancer, and further development in the research of liver cancer targeted drugs is now almost stagnant. The purpose of this review is to discuss recent advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of HCC and in the development of novel strategies for cancer therapeutics.

文摘Thrombosis is a global health issue and one of the leading factors of death.However,its diagnosis has been limited to the late stages,and its therapeutic window is too narrow to provide reasonable and effective treatment.In addition,clinical thrombolytics suffer from a short half-life,allergic reactions,inactivation,and unwanted tissue hemorrhage.Nano-medicines have gained extensive attention in diagnosis,drug delivery,and photo/sound/magnetic-theranostics due to their convertible properties.Furthermore,diagnosis and treatment of thrombosis using nano-medicines have also been widely studied.This review summarizes the recent advances in this area,which revealed six types of nanoparticle approaches:(1)in vitro diagnostic kits using“synthetic biomarkers”;(2)in vivo imaging using nano-contrast agents;(3)targeted drug delivery systems using artificial nanoparticles;(4)microenvironment responsive drug delivery systems;(5)drug delivery systems using biological nanostructures;and(6)treatments with external irradiation.The investigations of nano-medicines are believed to be of great significance,and some of the advanced drug delivery systems show potential applications in clinical theranotics.

文摘The Tonggou Cu polymetallic deposit in the Bogda Orogenic Belt,Eastern Tianshan shows evidence for three stages of hydrothermal mineralization:early pyrite veins(Stage 1),polymetallic sulfide±epidote-quartz(Stage 2),and late-stage pyrite-calcite veins(Stage 3).Fluid inclusion petrography and microthermometry analyses indicate that the liquid-rich aqueous inclusions(L),vapour-rich aqueous inclusions(V),and NaCl daughter mineral-bearing three phase inclusions(S)formed during the main stage of mineralization,and that the ore fluids represent high-temperature and high-salinity H20-NaCl hydrothermal fluids that underwent boiling.Stable isotope(H,O)data indicate that the ore fluids of the Tonggou deposit were originally derived from magmatic water in Stage 2 and subsequently mixed with local meteoric water during Stage 3.Sulphur isotope compositions(6.7‰to 10.9‰)are consistent with theδ^34 S values of pyrite from the Qijiaojing Formation sandstone,indicating the primary source of the sulphur ore.Furthermore,chalcopyrite grains separated from the chalcopyrite-rich ore samples yield an isochron age of 303±12 Ma(MSWD=1.2).These results indicate that the Tonggou deposit is a transition between high-sulfidation and porphyry deposits which formed in the Late Carboniferous.It also suggests an increased likelihood for the occurrence of Cu(Au,Mo)in the Bogda Orogenic Belt,especially at locations where the Cu-Zn deposits are thicker;further deep drilling and exploration are encouraged in these areas.

文摘AIM: To investigate the behavioral and psychological disorders and the prevalence of parent ratings of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) symptoms among children with bilateral congenital cataracts(CCs). METHODS: This cross-sectional study investigated children with bilateral CC aged 3-8 y(CC group) using Conners’ Parent Rating Scale-48(CPRS-48) from July to December 2016. The abnormal rates of psychological symptoms in CC children and normal vision(NV) children were compared using the Chi-square test. The scores of CC children were compared with those of NV children and the Chinese urban norm using the independent samples t-test and one-sample t-test, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The ratio of CC children to NV children was 119:143. The overall rate of psychological symptoms in CC children was 2.28 times higher than that in NV children(46.22% vs 20.28%, Pearson’s χ2=20.062;P<0.001). CC children showed higher scores for conduct problems, learning problems, impulsiveness/hyperactivity, anxiety, and hyperactivity index than NV children and the Chinese urban norm, particularly between the ages of 3 and 5 y. Furthermore, male children aged between 6 and 8 y showed a higher impulsive/hyperactive score than females of the same age(t=6.083, P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Children with bilateral CCs have a higher rate of ADHD symptoms than children with NV. This study provides clinical evidence that screening for psychological symptoms and particularly for ADHD symptoms in children with bilateral CC are recommended for an early diagnosis and timely treatment.

文摘Background Metastatic lung cancer(LC)is a threat to human health.We previously proposed a fat age-inflammation(FAIN)index which showed prognostic value in patients with certain cancers.However,whether a similar association exists in patients with metastatic LC remains unknown.Methods We performed a cohort study including 1360 patients with metastatic LC from January 2013 to April 2019.The FAIN index was defined as:(triceps skinfold thickness+albumin)/[age+5×(neutrophil count/lymphocyte count)]×100%.Sex-specific cutoffs of the FAIN were determined using an optimal stratification approach.The associations of the FAIN index with the nutrition related factors,short-term outcomes and overall survival(OS)of patients were comprehensively assessed.Results The study enrolled 865 males and 495 females with a median age of 59.9 years.The continuous FAIN was significantly associated with the OS in both genders(both P<0.05).The optimal stratification-defined FAIN cutoffs were 82 for women and 60 for men.A total of 623 patients(45.8%)were categorized as having a low FAIN.A low FAIN was associated with poorer nutrition-related factors and impaired short-term outcomes including the thirty-day mortality,length of hospital stay,intensive care unit stay and cost(all P<0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that a lower FAIN was also associated with an increased death hazard(HR=1.428,95%CI=1.209-1.686).Conclusion This study assessed the FAIN index,which might act as a feasible tool to monitor nutrition-related factors and help develop management strategies to optimize the clinical outcomes of patients with metastatic LC.

文摘In order to effectively control petroleum hydrocarbon pollution by immobilisation technology,it is necessary to understanding the degradation pathways of petroleum hydrocarbon in immobilised petroleum-degradation bacteria system.However,the adsorption in degradation process is rarely studied.In this study,adsorption process of petroleum hydrocarbon was synergistically studied by means of the surface properties,adsorption thermodynamics and molecular simulation.The results indicate that the immobilised petroleum-degradation bacteria have many holes for the bacteria to adsorb.The diesel adsorption by immobilised petroleum-degradation bacteria is a spontaneous,entropy-increasing and endothermic process.Diesel is first adsorbed to the surface of immobilised petroleum-degradation bacteria through hydrogen bonding,and then is biodegraded.This study provided substantial knowledge of immobilised technology in controlling petroleum hydrocarbon pollution.

文摘Genome size changes significantly among taxonomic levels,and this variation is often related to the patterns shaped by the phylogeny,life histories and ecological factors.However,there are mixed evidences on the main factors affecting molecular evolution in animals.In this study,we used phylogenetic comparative analysis to investigate the evolutionary rate of genome size and the relationships between genome size and life histories(i.e.,hatchling mass,clutch size,clutches per year,age at sexual maturity,lifespan and body mass)among 199 squamata species.Our results showed that the evolutionary rate of genome size in Lacertilia was significantly faster than Serpentes.Moreover,we also found that larger species showed larger hatchling mass,more clutches per year and clutch size and longer lifespan.However,genome size was negatively associated with clutch size and clutches per year,but not associated with body mass we looked at.The findings suggest that larger species do not possess the evolution of large genomes in squamata.
文摘Objective This study investigated the predictive value of tumor volume reduction rates(TVRRs) before and after induction chemotherapy in determining the radiosensitivity and prognosis of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinomas(NPCs). Methods The clinical data of 172 patients with locally advanced primary NPCs who were treated from January 2009 to December 2012 were collected. Tumor regression was evaluated based on the results of the computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging studies. Data about the tumor diameters before and after induction chemotherapy and after radiotherapy as well as the survival times of the patients were obtained. Results All 172 patients had NPCs. After radiotherapy, the TVRR in patients without residual tumor cells was higher than that in patients with residual tumor cells after induction chemotherapy(median values: 47.7% and 15.1%, respectively), and the 5-year survival rates were 80.3% and 45.6%, respectively. Neck lymph node metastasis was observed in 161 of 172 patients, and the TVRRs were similar(median values: 46.8% in 161 patients without residual tumor cells and 11.1% in 161 patients with residual tumor cells). The 5-year survival rate of the 161 patients without residual tumor cells was 84.5%, and that of patients with residual tumor cells was 37.3%. As shown by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve, the area under the curve(AUC) of the ROC curve for TVRRs in patients with primary NPCs but without residual tumors was 0.851, whereas that for TVRRs in patients with neck lymph node metastasis but without residual tumors was 0.784. This result indicates that TVRR has a high diagnostic performance. The univariate Cox regression analysis showed that clinical stage, TVRR in primary NPCs, neck lymph node metastatic lesions before and after induction chemotherapy, presence or absence of residual tumor cells in primary NPCs, and neck lymph node metastatic lesions after radiotherapy were significantly correlated to overall survival(OS). Results of the multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that clinical stage and presence or absence of residual tumor cells in the lymph nodes after radiotherapy were the independent prognostic factors of OS.Conclusion The TVRR after induction chemotherapy may be an effective predictive indicator of the treatment efficacy of radiotherapy in patients with NPC.

文摘METTL3 and METTL14 are two components that form the core heterodimer of the main RNA m^(6)A methyltransferase complex(MTC)that installs m^(6)A.Surprisingly,depletion of METTL3 or METTL14 displayed distinct effects on stemness maintenance of mouse embryonic stem cell(mESC).While comparable global hypo-methylation in RNA m^(6)A was observed in Mettl3 or Mettl14 knockout mESCs,respectively.Mettl14 knockout led to a globally decreased nascent RNA synthesis,whereas Mettl3 depletion resulted in transcription upregulation,suggesting that METTL14 might possess an mA-independent role in gene regulation.We found that METTL14 colocalizes with the repressive H3K27me3 modification.Mechanistically,METTL14,but not METTL3,binds H3K27me3 and recruits KDM6B to induce H3K27me3 demethylation independent of METTL3.Depletion of METTL14 thus led to a global increase in H3K27me3 level along with a global gene suppression.The effects of METTL14 on regulation of H3K27me3 is essential for the transition from self-renewal to differentiation of mESCs.This work reveals a regulatory mechanism on heterochromatin by METTL14 in a manner distinct from METTL3 and independently of m^(6)A,and critically impacts transcriptional regulation,stemness maintenance,and differentiation ofmESCs.

文摘Corneal neovascularization(CNV) is one of the major factors for vision impairment and blindness worldwide. The current treatment for CNV focuses primarily on topical eyedrops of glucocorticoids,non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, electro-coagulation and laser photo-coagulation. Unfortunately,coagulation-based treatment is restricted by corneal hemorrhage and iris atrophy. And drug treatments have limited therapeutic effects and a short duration of action. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems are widely applied due to their improved pharmacokinetics, optimized drug targeting and enhanced biocompatibility. In this article, we provide a comprehensive and systematic overview of the CNV nanodrug system, highlighting some of the recent advances in nanodrug design, preparation, and functional modification. Moreover, we discuss the challenges in the clinical translation and potential risks in CNV treatment. A greater effort is needed for the potential applications of nanotechnology in the field of ophthalmology.

文摘With the capability of interconversion between electrical and mechanical energy,piezoelectric materials have been revolutionized by the implementation of perovskite-piezoelectric-ceramic-based studies over 70 years.In particular,the market of piezoelectric ceramics has been dominated by lead zirconate titanate for decades.Nowadays,the research on piezoelectric ceramics is largely driven by cutting-edge technological demand as well as the consideration of a sustainable society.Hence,environmental-friendly lead-free piezoelectric materials have emerged to replace lead-based Pb(Zr,Ti)O_(3)(PZT)compositions.Owing to the inherent high mechanical quality factor(Q_(m))and low energy loss,(Li,Na)NbO_(3)(LNN)materials have recently drawn increasing attention and brought advantages to high-power piezoelectric applications.Although the crystallographic structures of LNN materials were intensively investigated for decades,the technical strategies for electrical performance are still limited.As a result,the property enhancement appears to have approached a plateau.This review traces the progress in the development of LNN materials,starting from the polymorphism in terms of the crystal structures,phase transitions,and local structural distortions.Then,the key milestone works on the functional tunability of LNN are reviewed with emphasis on involved engineering approaches.The exceptional performance at a large vibration velocity makes LNN ceramics promising for high-power applications,such as ultrasonic welding(UW)and ultrasonic osteotomes(UOs).The remaining challenges and some strategic insights for synergistically engineering the functional performance of LNN piezoceramics are also suggested.

文摘Dear Editor,Selective pressures emerging from the environmental complexity can drive variation in vertebrate brain size(Sol et al.2005;Sayol et al.2016).It is generally agreed that larger brains can confer better cognitive abilities when species are faced with complex environments(Roth et al.2010;Sayol et al.2016).Indeed,there is evidence that artificial selection on large-brained individuals has enhanced learning abilities such as numerical abilities and spatial mate search and schooling behavior in guppies(Kotrschal et al.2013,2015;Vega-Trejo et al.2020).

文摘Hazard control of NOxis very important for the long life of hot stove shell and environmental protection.NOxconcentrations during different operation periods of hot stove were calculated according to thermodynamical and dynamical analyses.The results were verified by the previously measured data.Then,the influence of hot stove operation parameters on NOxconcentration and the mechanism of liquid water formation in hot stove were studied.The results indicated that in gas period,the dome temperature should be controlled below 1 420 ℃in order to decrease NOxemission.In the case of banking operation,NOxconcentration was about 40-60times higher than that in gas period.Hence,reasonable measures should be taken to reduce banking operation,especially in the situation of large excess air ratio.Since NOxformed during the whole operation process,the most effective way of preventing liquid water and HNO3generation is to control the pipe and shell temperature,which should be higher than the condensation temperature of water vapour.The condensation temperature should be considered as the design temperature of pipe and shell for hot stove.
