Abstract
UNLABELLED Interventions that alter PTH levels in an animal model of chronic kidney disease have effects on the perfusion of bone and bone marrow. INTRODUCTION Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have accelerated bone loss, vascular calcification, and abnormal biochemistries, together contributing to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and fracture-associated mortality. Despite evidence of vascular pathologies and dysfunction in CKD, our group has shown that cortical bone tissue perfusion is higher in a rat model of high-turnover CKD. The goal of the present study was to test the hypothesis that parathyroid hormone (PTH) suppressive interventions would normalize cortical bone vascular perfusion in the setting of CKD. METHODS In two separate experiments, 35-week-old CKD animals and their normal littermates underwent intra-cardiac fluorescent microsphere injection to assess the effect of 10 weeks of PTH suppression (Experiment 1: calcium supplementation, Experiment 2: calcimimetic treatment) on alterations in bone tissue perfusion. RESULTS In Experiment 1, CKD animals had serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and PTH levels significantly higher than NL (+ 182% and + 958%; p < 0.05). CKD+Ca animals had BUN levels that were similar to CKD, while PTH levels were significantly lower and comparable to NL. Both femoral cortex (+ 220%, p = 0.003) and tibial cortex (+ 336, p = 0.005) tissue perfusion were significantly higher in CKD animals when compared to NL; perfusion was normalized to those of NL in CKD+Ca animals. MicroCT analysis of the proximal tibia cortical porosity showed a trend toward higher values in CKD (+ 401%; p = 0.017) but not CKD+Ca (+ 111%; p = 0.38) compared to NL. Experiment 2, using an alternative method of PTH suppression, showed similar results as those of Experiment 1. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that PTH suppression-based interventions normalize cortical bone perfusion in the setting of CKD.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the perceptions, attitudes and treatment selection of Chinese surgeons on the "watch and wait" strategy for rectal cancer patients after achieving a clinical complete response (cCR) following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). Methods: A cross-sectional survey was used in this study. Selection of subjects: (1) Domestic public grade III A (provincial and prefecture-level) oncology hospitals or general hospitals possessing the radiotherapy department and the diagnosis and treatment qualifications for colorectal cancer. (2) Surgeons of deputy chief physician or above. Using the "Questionnaire Star" online survey platform to create a questionnaire about cognition, attitude and treatment choice of the "watch and wait" strategy after cCR following nCRT for rectal cancer. The questionnaire contained 32 questions, such as the basic information of doctor, the current status of rectal cancer surgery, the management of pathological complete remission (ypCR) after nCRT for rectal cancer, the selection of examination items for diagnosis of cCR, the selection of suitable people undergoing "watch and wait" approach, the nCRT mode for promotion of cCR, the choice of evaluation time point, the willingness to perform "watch and wait" approach and the treatment choice, and the risk and monitoring of "watch and wait" approach. A total of 116 questionnaires were sent to the respondents via WeChat between January 31 and February 19, 2019. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher's exact test for categorical variables. Results: Forty-eight hospitals including 116 surgeons meeting criteria were enrolled, of whom 77 surgeons filled the questionnaire with a response rate of 66.4%. "Watch and wait" strategy was carried out in 76.6% (59/77) of surgeons. Seventy surgeons (90.9%) were aware of the ypCR rate of rectal cancer after preoperative nCRT and 49 surgeons (63.6%) knew the 3-year disease-free survival of patients with ypCR in their own hospitals. Fifty-five surgeons (71.4%) believed that patients with ypCR undergoing radical surgery met the treatment criteria and were not over-treated. Three most necessary examinations in diagnosing cCR were colonoscopy (96.1%, 74/77), digital rectal examination (DRE) (90.9%,70/77) and DWI-MRI (83.1%, 64/77). Responders preferred to consider a "watch and wait" strategy for patients with baseline characteristics as mrN0 (77.9%, 60/77), mrT2 (68.8%, 53/77) and well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (68.8%, 53/77). Sixty-six surgeons (85.7%) believed that long-term chemoradiotherapy (LCRT) with combination or without combination of induction and/or consolidation of the CapeOX regimen (capecitabine + oxaliplatin) should be the first choice as a neoadjuvant therapy to achieve cCR. Forty-one surgeons (53.2%) believed that a reasonable interval of judging cCR after nCRT should be ≥ 8 weeks. Forty-four surgeons (57.1%) routinely, or in most cases, informed patient the possibility of cCR and proposed to "watch and wait" strategy in the initial diagnosis of patients with non-metastatic rectal cancer. Thirteen surgeons (16.9%) would take the "watch and wait" strategy as the first choice after the patient having cCR. Fifty-two surgeons (67.5%) would be affected by the surgical method, that was to say, "watch and wait" approach would only be recommended to those patients who would achieve cCR and could not preserve the anus or underwent difficult anus-preservation surgery. Sixteen surgeons (20.8%) demonstrated that "watch and wait" strategy would not be recommended to patients with cCR regardless of whether the surgical procedure involved anal sphincter. Eleven surgeons (14.3%) believed that the main risk of "watch and wait" approach came from distant metastasis rather than local recurrence or regrowth. Twenty-nine of surgeons (37.7%) did not understand the difference between "local recurrence" and "local regrowth" during the period of "watch and wait". Twenty-six surgeons (33.8%) thought that the monitoring interval for the first 3 years of "watch and wait" strategy was 3 months, and the follow-up monitoring interval could be 6 months to 5 years. Surgeons from cancer specialist hospitals had higher approval rate, notification rate, and referral rate of "watch and wait" strategy than those from general hospitals. Thirty-one surgeons (42.5%) considered that the difficulty and concern of carrying out "watch and wait" approach in the future was the disease progress leading to medical disputes. Twenty-six surgeons (35.6%) demonstrated that their concern was lack of uniform evaluation standard for cCR. Conclusions: Chinese surgeons seem to have inadequate knowledge of non-operative management for rectal cancer patients achieving cCR after nCRT and show relatively conservative attitudes toward the strategy. Chinese consensus needs to be formed to guide the non-operative management in selected patients. Chinese Watch & Wait Database (CWWD) is also needed to establish and provide more evidence for the use of alternative procedure after a cCR following nCRT.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the prognostic value of the intraductal carcinoma of the prostate IDC-P in metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) patients of different subgroups. Methods: Data of 582 de novo mPCa patients between January 2011 and December 2017 diagnosed at Departments of Urology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University were retrospectively analyzed. The age was (70±8) years (range: 45 to 89 years). IDC-P was identified from 12-core prostate biopsy. The prognostic role of IDC-P was assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression. Subgroup analysis was conducted by the forest plot. The endpoints were castration-resistant prostate cancer free survival (CFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: In total, 177/582 (30.4%) patients harbored IDC-P. Patients with IDC-P had poorer CFS and OS than those without IDC-P (mCFS: 12.1 months vs. 16.9 months, P=0.000; mOS: 39.7 months vs. not reached, P=0.000). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that, the existence of IDC-P was an independent prognosticator of both CFS (HR=1.40, 95% CI: 1.10 to 1.79, P=0.006) and OS (HR=1.51, 95% CI: 1.02 to 2.25, P=0.041). Subanalysis indicated that, in most subgroups, IDC-P was an adverse prognosticator of both CFS and OS. Even in subgroups with adverse clinicopathological features, e.g. Gleason score 9 to 10 (CFS: HR=1.467, P=0.007; OS: HR=1.807, P=0.013), baseline prostate specific antigen≥50 μg/L (CFS: HR=1.616, P=0.000; OS: HR=1.749, P=0.006), anemia (CFS: HR=1.653, P=0.036; OS: HR=2.100, P=0.038), alkaline phosphatase≥160 U/L (CFS: HR=1.326, P=0.038; OS: HR=1.725, P=0.010) or abnormal lactate dehydrogenase level (CFS: HR=1.614, P=0.001; OS: HR=1.900, P=0.003), IDC-P was still closely associated with shorter CFS and OS. Conclusions: The presence of IDC-P was closely related to poor survival outcomes for patients with mPCa. IDC-P was an adverse prognosticator in most subgroup patients. The description of IDC-P in the pathological report of prostate biopsy would help clinicians to evaluate the prognosis of mPCa patients more accurately and make better treatment choices.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and third-leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women in America. A quarter of lesions diagnosed annually are ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), one of the earliest pre-invasive forms of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Without therapeutic intervention, 30-50% of DCIS cases can progress to IDC. Understanding the mechanisms regulating progression from DCIS to IDC would help identify biomarkers to stratify DCIS patients at higher risk of progression or recurrence. Cumulative literature suggests the earliest phase of dissemination from the primary tumor is driven by the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program. DEAR1 is a tumor suppressor gene which is mutated, undergoes loss of heterozygosity in breast cancer, and is downregulated in DCIS lesions. DEAR1 regulates acinar morphogenesis and cell polarity, and is a negative regulator of TGF-beta-driven EMT by binding to and ubiquitinating SMAD3, thereby limiting the amount of SMAD3 available to activate an EMT signature. Overexpression of EMT master regulators, or exposure to TGF-beta in immortalized human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs), results in mammosphere formation and breast stem cell markers, thus linking the EMT process to acquisition of stem cell characteristics.
Methods: Stable lentiviral shRNA knockdown, in vitro mammosphere assay, cytospin, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, western blot analysis, ubiquitination and real-time quantitative PCR were performed.
Results: DEAR1 knockdown in immortal HMECs resulted in a significant enhancement of primary mammosphere formation and growth compared to controls, suggesting that DEAR1 may regulate stem/progenitor cell properties; this effect was greater when cells were exposed to TGF-beta. To determine if DEAR1 regulates stem cell properties through regulation of SMAD3 levels, DEAR1-SMAD3 double knockdown clones were examined for mammosphere formation. Results indicated fewer mammospheres in double knockdown clones, but only in the presence of TGF-beta, suggesting that the mammosphere phenotype is partially dependent on the TGF-beta-SMAD3 pathway. The observation that loss of DEAR1 alone results in a stem/progenitor cell phenotype indicates that DEAR1 may regulate mammosphere formation independent of its role in regulating the TGF-beta pathway. HMEC mammospheres express higher levels of stem cell marker aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH1) and co-express luminal and basal cytokeratins, suggesting bipotential capacity. We also observed upregulation of SNAI2 and ZEB1, master EMT and stem cell regulators, in DEAR1 knockdown HMECs. DEAR1 interacted with SNAI2 by co-immunoprecipitation analysis and also promoted the polyubiquitination of SNAI2.
Conclusions: Loss of the tumor suppressor/polarity regulator DEAR1 promotes stem cell properties in part through the DEAR1-TGF-beta-SMAD3 axis. We demonstrate a DEAR1-SNAI2 axis that may partially regulate stem/progenitor cell properties in HMECs through the polyubiquitination of SNAI2, a master regulator of EMT and stemness. These mechanisms governing acquisition of the stem cell properties may contribute to understanding how DCIS progress to IDC.

Abstract
In recent years, robot-assisted surgery (RAS) has developed rapidly and become one of the hot topics in clinical research. Compared with traditional surgery, RAS has advantages in terms of minimal invasiveness, aesthetics, and functional preservation, and has been gradually applied in clinical practice such as neurosurgery, urology, and head and neck surgery. In the treatment of head and neck tumors, RAS can effectively minimize the surgical injury and accelerate postoperative recovery. This article reviews the application of RAS in the resection of primary lesions of head and neck tumors, neck dissection, and reconstruction of tissue defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical value of perineural invasion (PNI) in patients with localized prostate cancer (PCa) is widely explored. However, its role in metastatic PCa (mPCa) remains unknown. OBJECTIVES We aim to investigate the clinical significance of PNI in patients with mPCa. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of 515 mPCa patients between 2012 and 2018 were retrospectively studied. PNI and its intensity were identified by prostate biopsy. The prognostic value of PNI was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional-hazards model. RESULTS Perineural invasion was detected in 170/515 (33.0%) cases. Among them 73/170 (42.9%) and 97/170 (57.1%) harbored unifocal PNI (uni-PNI) and multifocal PNI (multi-PNI), respectively. Compared to patients without PNI, those with PNI had statistically shorter castration-resistant PCa-free survival (CFS) and numerically shorter overall survival (OS) (mCFS: 15.4- vs. 18.5-Mo, p = 0.015; mOS: 63.8- vs. 71.4-Mo, p = 0.108). Patients harboring multi-PNI were associated with poorer clinical outcomes than those with uni-PNI (mCFS: 12.4- vs. 18.0-Mo, p = 0.040; mOS: 39.7-Mo vs. NR, p = 0.018) or those without PNI (mCFS: 12.4- vs. 18.5-Mo, p = 0.002; mOS: 39.7- vs. 71.4-Mo, p = 0.002). Totally, neither uni-PNI nor multi-PNI was an independent risk factor impacting survival outcomes in multivariate analyses. While remarkably, for patients with favorable/intermediate-risk mPCa, multi-PNI was an independent adverse prognosticator for both CFS and OS (CFS: HR: 1.705, 95% CI: 1.029-2.825, p = 0.038; OS: HR: 3.294, 95% CI: 1.464-7.413, p = 0.004). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION This study filled the blank of the clinical significance of PNI in mPCa. We found that multi-PNI could distinguish men with relatively poor prognosis from patients initially regarded as with favorable survival outcomes by other prognosticators, and thus, avoid disease underestimation in this group of patients. Our finding would help physicians have a deeper understanding of the heterogeneity of mPCa and make better individualized therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
In presented paper, a new chlorin derivative 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[(5-N-morpholino)pentyl] chlorin (TMC) was investigated as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Cellular uptake, cytotoxicity, intracellular location, biodistribution and antitumor effects were studied using human esophageal cancer cells (Eca-109) and human cervical cancer cells (Hela) in vitro and an esophageal cancer model in BALB/c nude mice. Cellular uptake and biodistribution of TMC were measured by fluorescence spectrophotometer. Cytotoxicity of TMC against Eca-109 and Hela cells was determined by MTT assay. The intracellular location of TMC was detected with a confocal microscopy. It was showed that TMC could rapidly accumulate in tumor cells and localize in cytoplasm. TMC was found to be low-toxic in dark but extensively photosensitive in vitro. A fast clearance rate of TMC was observed in Eca-109-bearing mice. In particular, TMC could significantly inhibit the tumor growth and exhibit a notable antitumor efficacy for PDT in vivo.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of generic dasatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in the choronie phase (CML-CP). Methods: Using randomized, parallel, overlapping, self-control designed study, a 100 mg dose of the reference or test tablet was given to 12 CML-CP patients who were resistant or intolerant to Imatinib and Nilotinib in a randomized two-way crossover design, and the plasma concentration of the medicine was assayed by HPLC-MS-MS. The main pharmacokinetic parameters and bioequivalence of the two formulations were evaluated. Results: The major pharmacokinetic parameters were as follows: Cmax (209.01±58.69) μg/L and (223.07±79.51) μg/L, Tmax (1.1±0.8) h and (1.1±0.8) h, T1/2 (5.10±1.34) h and (4.39±0.74) h, AUC0-τ (646.65±185.67) h·μg/L and (695.84±273.40) h·μg/L (all P>0.05); AUC0-∝ (668.11±186.00) h·μg/L and (712.42±278.08) h·μg/L, MRT (5.32 ± 1.70) h and (4.68 ± 1.53) h (all P>0.05).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the association of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) deficiency with susceptibility and clinical features of group B Streptococcus (GBS) causing meningitis in Chinese infants. METHODS During 2014-2017, 33 infants with laboratory-confirmed GBS meningitis were included. Six polymorphisms (H/L, Y/X, P/Q, A/D, A/B and A/C) of MBL were sought for in these patients and in 330 healthy controls by PCR-based sequencing. Serum MBL concentration was determined. RESULTS Significantly higher frequency of MBL variant genotype A/B was found in patients than controls (15/33, 45%, vs. 79/330, 24%, p=0.011). Patients with variant genotype A/B had significantly lower serum MBL than those with wild-type genotype A/A (median, 482.87 vs. 1455.13 ng/mL, p=0.002). Moreover, patients with genotype A/B had significantly higher level of C-reactive protein (median, 146 vs. 41 mg/L, p=0.007), neutrophil (median, 58.1% vs. 45.7%, p=0.033) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in blood (median, 2.32 vs. 1.03, p=0.018) compared to those with genotype A/A. No significant differences were observed in clinical features of patients with different genotypes. CONCLUSIONS Our result suggested that infants with MBL deficiency are at higher risk of meningitis caused by GBS. Further studies in different populations with larger number of subjects are needed.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the status and prognostic significance of TERT and IDH1/2 genes mutations in diffusely infiltrating gliomas. Methods: Hot spot mutations of TERT and IDH1/2 genes were detected by DNA sequencing in 236 cases of gliomas at West China Hospital from 2012 to 2016, including pilocytic astrocytoma (WHO grade Ⅰ, 16 cases), diffuse astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma (WHO grade Ⅱ, 89 cases), anaplastic astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma (WHO grade Ⅲ, 72 cases) and glioblastoma (WHO grade Ⅳ, 59 cases). The prognostic significance of TERT and IDH1/2 hot spot mutations was evaluated. Results: No IDH or TERT mutations were detected in pilocytic gliomas. TERT promoter mutation frequency was higher in patients aged ≥40 years(60.8%, 93/153) than in patients aged <40 years (32.8%, 22/67; P<0.01). TERT promoter mutation rate was also significantly higher in oligodendroglioma (87.5% , 56/64) than that in astrocytoma(37.8%, 59/156; P<0.01). Young age (<40 years), oligodendroglioma and IDH1 mutation were favorable prognostic factors for diffusely infiltrating astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors. TERT mutation alone was not of prognostic significance. Diffusely infiltrating astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors were divided into four molecular subtypes according to TERT and IDH1 mutation status: IDH(+ )/TERT(+ ), IDH(+ )/TERT(-), IDH(-)/TERT(-) and IDH(-)/TERT(+ ). There was significant prognostic difference among the 4 subtypes. Conclusions: Combined IDH and TERT gene mutation analysis may be useful for prognostic subgrouping. Notably, IDH1 wild-type cases can be further subdivided into TERT(+ ) or (-) subgroups with significant prognostic difference.

Abstract
This work examines the skeletal accumulation of fluorescently tagged zoledronate in an animal model of chronic kidney disease. The results show higher accumulation in 24-h post-dose animals with lower kidney function due to greater amounts of binding at individual surfaces. INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients suffer from increased rates of skeletal-related mortality from changes driven by biochemical abnormalities. Bisphosphonates are commonly used in reducing fracture risk in a variety of diseases, yet their use is not recommended in advanced stages of CKD. This study aimed to characterize the accumulation of a single dose of fluorescently tagged zoledronate (FAM-ZOL) in the setting of reduced kidney function. METHODS At 25 weeks of age, FAM-ZOL was administered to normal and CKD rats. Twenty-four hours later, multiple bones were collected and assessed using bulk fluorescence imaging, two-photon imaging, and dynamic histomorphometry. RESULTS CKD animals had significantly higher levels of FAM-ZOL accumulation in the proximal tibia, radius, and ulna, but not in lumbar vertebral body or mandible, based on multiple measurement modalities. Although a majority of trabecular bone surfaces were covered with FAM-ZOL in both normal and CKD animals, the latter had significantly higher levels of fluorescence per unit bone surface in the proximal tibia. CONCLUSIONS These results provide new data regarding how reduced kidney function affects drug accumulation in rat bone.
