Abstract
High-efficient heat dissipation plays critical role for high-power-density electronics. Experimental synthesis of ultrahigh thermal conductivity boron arsenide (BAs, 1300 W m-1K-1) cooling substrates into the wide-bandgap semiconductor of gallium nitride (GaN) devices has been realized. However, the lack of systematic analysis on the heat transfer across the GaN-BAs interface hampers the practical applications. In this study, by constructing the accurate and high-efficient machine learning interatomic potentials, we perform multiscale simulations of the GaN-BAs heterostructures. Ultrahigh interfacial thermal conductance of 260 MW m-2K-1 is achieved, which lies in the well-matched lattice vibrations of BAs and GaN. The strong temperature dependence of interfacial thermal conductance is found between 300 to 450 K. Moreover, the competition between grain size and boundary resistance is revealed with size increasing from 1 nm to 1000 μm. Such deep-potential equipped multiscale simulations not only promote the practical applications of BAs cooling substrates in electronics, but also offer approach for designing advanced thermal management systems.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is the practical experience and summary of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. It shows great potential in treating various chronic diseases, complex diseases and major infectious diseases, and has gradually attracted the attention of people all over the world. However, due to the complexity of prescription and action mechanism of TCM, the development of TCM industry is still in a relatively conservative stage. With the rise of artificial intelligence technology in various fields, many scholars began to apply artificial intelligence technology to traditional Chinese medicine industry and made remarkable progress. This paper comprehensively summarizes the important role of artificial intelligence in the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry from various aspects, including new drug discovery, data mining, quality standardization and industry technology of traditional Chinese medicine. The limitations of artificial intelligence in these applications are also emphasized, including the lack of pharmacological research, database quality problems and the challenges brought by human-computer interaction. Nevertheless, the development of artificial intelligence has brought new opportunities and innovations to the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine. Integrating artificial intelligence technology into the comprehensive application of Chinese medicine industry is expected to overcome the major problems faced by traditional Chinese medicine industry and further promote the modernization of the whole traditional Chinese medicine industry.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can contain DNA, RNA, proteins and metabolic molecules from primary origins; they are coated with a phospholipid bilayer membrane and released by cells into the extracellular matrix. EVs can be obtained from various body liquids, including the blood, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, and urine. As has been proved, EVs-mediated transfer of biologically active molecules is crucial for various physiological and pathological processes. Extensive investigations have already begun to explore the diagnosis and prognosis potentials for EVs. Furthermore, research has continued to recognize the critical role of nucleic acids and proteins in EVs. However, our understanding of the comprehensive effects of metabolites in these nanoparticles is currently limited and in its infancy. Therefore, we have attempted to summarize the recent research into the metabolomics of EVs in relation to potential clinical applications and discuss the problems and challenges that have occurred, to provide more guidance for the future development in this field.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that target epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are commonly administered to EGFR-positive lung cancer patients. However, resistance to EGFR-TKIs (mostly gefitinib and erlotinib) is presently a significant problem. Limited studies have focused on an EGFR-TKI resistance-related gene signature (ERS) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). METHODS Gefitinib and erlotinib resistance-related genes were obtained through the differential analyses of three Gene Expression Omnibus datasets. These genes were investigated further in LUAD patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Patients in the TCGA-LUAD cohort were split into two groups: one for training and one for testing. The training cohort was used to build the ERS, and the testing cohort was used to test it. GO and KEGG analyses were explored for the enriched pathways between the high-risk and low-risk groups. Various software, mainly CIBERSORT and ssGSEA, were used for immune infiltration profiles. Somatic mutation and drug sensitivity analyses were also explored. RESULTS An ERS based on five genes (FGD3, PCDH7, DEPDC1B, SATB2, and S100P) was constructed and validated using the TCGA-LUAD cohort, resulting in the significant stratification of LUAD patients into high-risk and low-risk groups. Multivariable Cox analyses confirmed that ERS had an independent prognostic value in LUAD. The pathway enrichment analyses showed that most of the genes that were different between the two risk groups were related to the immune system. Further immune infiltration results revealed that a lower immune infiltration score was observed in high-risk patients, and that various leukocytes were significantly related to the ERS. Importantly, samples from the high-risk group showed lower levels of PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA-4, which are important biomarkers for immunotherapy responses. Patients in the high-risk group also had more gene mutation changes and were more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs like docetaxel and sorafenib. The ERS was also validated in the GSE30219, GSE11969 and GSE72094, and showed a favorable prognostic value for LUAD patients. DISCUSSION The ERS established during this study was able to predict a poor prognosis for LUAD patients and had great potential for predicting drug responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We conducted this study to assess the value of clinically relevant data for predicting the failure of removing urinary catheters among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage postoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all patients with intracerebral hemorrhage who underwent surgery for removal of intracerebral hematoma between January 2014 and December 2019, all of whom retained their urinary catheter. The patients were classified into 2 groups. Group A included patients who underwent successful removal of the catheter while group B included patients who underwent a failed removal. Univariate analysis was performed to determine the relationship between the failure of catheter removal and the patients' preoperative clinical characteristics. Independent prognostic predictors were identified using multivariate analyses. RESULTS The site of intracerebral hematoma ( P =0.004), volume of hematoma ( P <0.001), intraventricular hemorrhage ( P <0.001), admitted Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) ( P <0.001), GCS before urinary catheter removal ( P <0.001), smoking ( P =0.011), herniation ( P <0.001), urine protein ( P =0.013), creatinine ( P =0.037), and timing of urinary catheter removal ( P <0.001) were significantly different among the 2 groups. Multiple logistical regression analysis indicated that GCS before urinary catheter removal (odds ratio=1.171; 95% confidence interval=1.050-1.306; P =0.005) and timing for urinary catheter removal (odds ratio=0.962; 95% confidence interval=0.944-0.981; P <0.001) were associated with failure of urinary catheter removal. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that GCS before urinary catheter removal and the timing of urinary catheter removal are independent factors associated with failure of urinary catheter removal among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the primary histological subtype of lung cancer with a markedly heterogeneous prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify optimal prognostic biomarkers. We aimed to explore the value of the circadian miRNA (cmiRNA) pair in predicting prognosis and guiding the treatment of LUAD. We first retrieved circadian genes (Cgenes) from the CGDB database, based on which cmiRNAs were predicted using the miRDB and mirDIP databases. The sequencing data of Cgenes and cmiRNAs were retrieved from TCGA and GEO databases. Two random cmiRNAs were matched to a single cmiRNA pair. Finally, univariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, LASSO regression, and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis were performed to develop a prognostic signature consisting of seven cmiRNA pairs. The signature exhibited good performance in predicting the overall and progression-free survival. Patients in the high-risk group also showed lower IC50 values for several common chemotherapy and targeted medicines. In addition, we constructed a cmiRNA–Cgenes network and performed a corresponding Gene Ontology and Gene Set enrichment analysis. In conclusion, the novel circadian-related miRNA pair signature could provide a precise prognostic evaluation with the potential capacity to guide individualized treatment regimens for LUAD.

Abstract
The two-dimensional (2D) materials, represented by graphene, stand out in the electrical industry applications of the future and have been widely studied. As commonly existing in electronic devices, the electric field has been extensively utilized to modulate the performance. However, how the electric field regulates thermal transport is rarely studied. Herein, we investigate the modulation of thermal transport properties by applying an external electric field ranging from 0 to 0.4 V Å-1, with bilayer graphene, monolayer silicene, and germanene as study cases. The monotonically decreasing trend of thermal conductivity in all three materials is revealed. A significant effect on the scattering rate is found to be responsible for the decreased thermal conductivity driven by the electric field. Further evidence shows that the reconstruction of internal electric field and generation of induced charges lead to increased scattering rate from strong phonon anharmonicity. Thus, the ultralow thermal conductivity emerges with the application of external electric fields. Applying an external electric field to regulate thermal conductivity illustrates a constructive idea for highly efficient thermal management.

The Instant Delivery Service (IDS) riders' overwork by “self-pressurisation” will not only reduce the level of their physical and mental health but also lose their lives in safety accidents caused by their fatigue riding. The purpose of this article is to examine whether there is overwork among IDS riders in big and medium cities in China? What's going on with them? Based on the Cobb-Douglas production function in the input-output theory, this study characterised the factors on IDS riders' safety and health associated with labour intensity. A mediating model with moderating effect was adopted to describe the mediation path for the 2,742 IDS riders who were surveyed. The results of moderating regression demonstrated that (1) 0.4655 is the total effect of labour intensity on the safety and health of IDS riders. (2) 0.3124 is the moderating effect that working hours make a greater impact on labour intensity. (3) The mediating effect of work pressure is the principal means of mediation both upstream and downstream.

Abstract
The negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) is a novel property of materials, which enhances the mechanical feature and creates a wide range of application prospects in lots of fields, such as aerospace, electronics, medicine, etc. Fundamental understanding on the mechanism underlying NPR plays an important role in designing advanced mechanical functional materials. However, with different methods used, the origin of NPR is found different and conflicting with each other, for instance, in the representative graphene. In this study, based on machine learning technique, we constructed a moment tensor potential for molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of graphene. By analyzing the evolution of key geometries, the increase of bond angle is found to be responsible for the NPR of graphene instead of bond length. The results on the origin of NPR are well consistent with the start-of-art first-principles, which amend the results from MD simulations using classic empirical potentials. Our study facilitates the understanding on the origin of NPR of graphene and paves the way to improve the accuracy of MD simulations being comparable to first-principle calculations. Our study would also promote the applications of machine learning interatomic potentials in multiscale simulations of functional materials.

Abstract
In recent years, cancer therapies using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have achieved meaningful success, with patients with advanced tumors presenting longer survival times and better quality of life. However, several patients still do not exhibit good clinical outcomes for ICI therapy due to low sensitivity. To solve this, researchers have focused on identifying the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to ICI therapy. ICI therapy induces apoptosis, which is the most frequent regulated cell death (RCD) but lacks immunogenicity and is regarded as an “immune silent” cell death. Ferroptosis, a unique type of non-apoptotic-RCD, has been preliminarily identified as an immunogenic cell death (ICD), stimulating tumor-antigen-specific immune responses and augmenting anti-tumor immune effects. However, ferroptosis has rarely been used in clinical practice. Present evidence strongly supports that the interferon-γ signaling pathway is at the crossroads of ICI therapy and ferroptosis. TYRO3, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is highly expressed in tumors and can induce anti-programmed cell death (PD)-ligand 1/PD-1 therapy resistance by limiting tumoral ferroptosis. Therefore, in this review, we summarize the clinical practice and effects of ICI therapy in various cancers. We also provide an overview of ferroptosis and report the molecular connections between cancer cell ferroptosis and ICI therapy, and discuss the possibility to reverse ICI therapy resistance by inducing cancer cell ferroptosis.

Abstract
Two-dimensional Mg2C, one of the typical representative MXene materials, is attracting lots of attention due to its outstanding properties. In this study, we find the thermal conductivity of monolayer Mg2C is more than 2 orders of magnitude lower than graphene and is even lower than MoS2 despite the relatively lighter atoms of Mg and C. Based on the comparative analysis with graphene, silicene, and MoS2, the underlying mechanism is found lying in the unique arrangement of atoms (lighter atoms in the middle plane) and large electronegativity difference in Mg2C. The phonon anharmonicity is strong due to the resonant bonding. In addition, dual band gaps emerge in the phonon dispersion of Mg2C, which limit the phonon-phonon scattering and reduce the phonon relaxation time. This study reveals a new mechanism responsible for low thermal conductivity, which would be helpful for designing thermal functional materials and pave the way for applications in thermoelectrics.

Abstract
The current study sought to understand the influence of cultural values on mental health attitudes and help-seeking behaviors in college students of diverse ethnic backgrounds. Asian and Latinx college students (N = 159) completed an online survey in which they reported on their adherence to cultural values as measured by ethnicity-specific cultural values and general attitudes towards mental health. Factor analysis revealed two common factors of cultural values irrespective of ethnicity: Interdependent Orientation (IO) and Cultural Obligation (CO). Regardless of ethnicity, the more students endorsed IO values, the less likely they were to perceive a need for mental health treatment. IO value adherence was also predictive of more negative attitudes towards mental health. CO values were not predictive of perceived need or help-seeking behaviors. Findings highlight the importance of understanding shared cultural values across ethnic-racial groups and considering how the multidimensionality of culture may help explain shared mental health behaviors crossing lines of ethnic group membership.

Abstract
X-box protein 1 (Xbp1), an essential transcription factor including an unstable form (Xbp1-u) and a stable form (Xbp1-s), plays an vital role in B cell activation and differentiation to plasma cells. In this study, we cloned and identified Xbp1-u gene from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), containing 783 bp of nucleotide sequence encoding 260 amino acids. The deduced protein possesses a basic region leucine zipper domain (bZIP) and 26 ribonucleotides of OnXbp1-u transcript. Transcription analysis revealed OnXbp1-u and OnXbp1-s were widely distributed in all examined tissues, with a high expression in immune-related tissues. When stimulated with Streptococcus agalactiae in vivo, the expressions of OnXbp1-u and OnXbp1-s were significantly up-regulated in liver, spleen, head kidney, blood, skin and intestine. After in vitro challenge upon S.agalactiae, the similar up-regulations of OnXbp1-u and OnXbp1-s were also demonstrated in head kidney leukocytes. Moreover, the OnXbp1-u and OnXbp1-s could get involved in LPS-inducible B cell activation and (r)OnIL6-inducible B cell differentiation. Taken together, the results indicated that OnXbp1-u and OnXbp1-s might not only involved in the immune response against S. agalactiae challenge, but also in the B cell activation and differentiation in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
Caspases are evolutionarily conserved proteases, which are inextricably linked with the apoptosis and immune system in mammals. However, the expression pattern and function of some caspases remain largely unknown in pufferfish. In this study, three different pufferfish caspases (caspase-2 (Pfcasp-2), caspase-3 (Pfcasp-3), and caspase-8 (Pfcasp-8)) were characterized, and their expression patterns and functions were determined following Aeromonas hydrophila infection. The open reading frames of Pfcasp-2, -3, and -8 are 1,320, 846, and 1455 bp, respectively. Analyses of sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree showed that casp-2, -3, and -8 share 52%-65%, 33%-40%, 63%-78% overall sequence identities with those of other vertebrates, respectively. 3D structures of Pfcasp-2, -3, and -8 enjoy conservation in core area together, while each owns a distinctive profile. Comparisons of deduced amino acid sequences indicated that Pfcaspases possessed the caspase domain and conserved active sites like 'HG' and 'QACXG' (X for R or G). qRT-PCR results revealed that Pfcasp-2, -3, and -8 were expressed constitutively in a wide range of organs, especially in immune-related organs including whole blood and kidney. In vitro, the expressions of the three caspases (Pfcasp-2, 3, and -8) and immune-related genes (IgM and IL-8) were significantly up-regulated in kidney leukocytes after A. Hydrophila challenge and inhibitors treatment. The expressions of Pfcasp-2 and Pfcasp-3 were successfully inhibited in the kidney leukocytes by Ac-DEVD-CHO (an inhibitor to caspase-3), but the expression of Pfcasp-8 was not affected. Cellular localization analysis showed that the distribution of Pfcasp-2, -3, and -8 was in cytoplasm. Further, overexpression of Pfcasp-2, -3, or -8 was found to cause DNA damage and apoptosis, suggesting that three caspases may be related to apoptosis and mediate different apoptosis pathways in pufferfish. Moreover, the expressions of these caspases were also up-regulated in whole blood and kidney after A. hydrophila challenge, indicating their possible involvement in the immune response against A. hydrophia stimulation. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that the caspase-2,-3, and -8 may play an important role in the apoptosis and immune response in pufferfish.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oseltamivir is a first-line antiviral drug, especially in primary hospitals. During the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), most patients with COVID-19 who are symptomatic have used oseltamivir. Considering its popular and important role as an antiviral drug, it is necessary to evaluate oseltamivir in the treatment of COVID-19. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of oseltamivir against COVID-19. METHODS Swiss-model was used to construct the structure of the N-terminal RNA-binding domain (NRBD) of the nucleoprotein (NC), papain-like protease (PLpro), and RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRp) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). TM-align program was performed to compare the structure of the viral proteins with the structure of the neuraminidase of influenza A. Molecular docking was used to analyze the theoretical possibility of effective binding of oseltamivir with the active centers of the viral proteins. In vitro study was used to evaluate the antiviral efficiency of oseltamivir against SARS-CoV-2. By clinical case analysis, we statistically evaluated whether the history of oseltamivir use influenced the progression of the disease. RESULTS The structures of NRBD, PLpro, and RdRp were built successfully. The results from TM-align suggested that the S protein, NRBD, 3C-like protease (3CLpro), PLPrO, and RdRp were structurally similar to the influenza A neuraminidase, with TM-scores of 0.30077, 0.19254, 0.28766, 0.30666, and 0.34047, respectively. Interestingly, the active center of 3CL pro was found to be similar to the active center from the neuraminidase of influenza A. Through an analysis of molecular docking, we discovered that oseltamivir carboxylic acid was more favorable to bind to the active site of 3CLpro effectively, but its inhibitory effect was not strong compared with the positive group. Finally, we used in vitro study and retrospective case analysis to verify our speculations. We found that oseltamivir is ineffective against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro study and the clinical use of oseltamivir did not improve the patients' symptoms and signs and did not slow the disease progression. CONCLUSIONS We consider that oseltamivir isn't suitable for the treatment of COVID-19. During the outbreak of novel coronavirus, when oseltamivir is not effective for the patients after they take it, health workers should be highly vigilant about the possibility of COVID-19.

Abstract
Chemokines are a class of small molecular weight cytokines of 6-14 kDa, exerting important roles in the regulation of various inflammatory diseases and immune cell migration. In this study, we have identified the CXCL12 gene from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), including CXCL12a (OnCXCL12a) and CXCL12b (OnCXCL12b). The open reading frames of OnCXCL12a and OnCXCL12b are 309 and 297 bp, encoding 102 and 98 amino acids, respectively. Multiple alignment showed that OnCXCL12a and OnCXCL12b have characteristics of CXC chemokines and share high identity with CXCL12 amino acid sequences from the known species. Tissue distribution in the healthy fish indicated that OnCXCL12a and OnCXCL12b expressed in all examined tissues, with the highest expression in muscle and anterior kidney, respectively. After challenged by Streptococcus agalactiae, Poly(I:C) and LPS in vivo and in vitro, OnCXCL12 is transcriptionally up-regulated in immune tissues and cells significantly. The recombinant OnCXCL12 proteins, (r)OnCXCL12a and (r)OnCXCL12b, enhance the release of nitric oxide and increase the expression of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10) in anterior kidney leukocytes, as well as exhibit chemotactic activity for leukocytes from anterior kidney. Summarizing, these results indicate that OnCXCL12 is involved in the immune response of Nile tilapia against pathogen infection and may play an important role in mediating inflammatory response.

Abstract
Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 4 (MFAP4), a pattern recognition-like molecule with a fibrinogen-like domain (FBG), has the ability to combine and agglutinate pathogens, playing an essential role in the first line of innate immune defense. In this study, the sequence of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) microfibril-associated glycoprotein 4 (OnMFAP4) open reading frame (ORF) was amplified and identified. The ORF of OnMFAP4 is 720 bp of nucleotides and codes for 239 amino acids. Spatial mRNA encoding analysis indicated that OnMFAP4 was highly produced in liver, intestine and head kidney in healthy tilapia, and with the lowest expression in muscle. After challenges with Streptococcus agalactiae (S. agalactiae) and Aeromonas hydrophila (A. hydrophila), the expression of OnMFAP4 mRNA was prominently produced in the liver, spleen and head kidney. The up-regulation of OnMFAP4 expression was also presented in head kidney monocytes/macrophages (MO/MΦ) and hepatocytes. Recombinant OnMFAP4 ((r)OnMFAP4) could bind and agglutinate both bacterial pathogens. Moreover, (r)OnMFAP4 could take part in the modulation of inflammation and phagocytosis. In conclusion, this study revealed that OnMFAP4 might take effect in host defense against bacterial infection in Nile tilapia, with agglutination and opsonization capability to bacterial pathogens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a public health emergency of global concern. We aimed to explore the risk factors of 14-day and 28-day mortality and develop a model for predicting 14-day and 28-day survival probability among adult hospitalized patients with COVID-19. METHODS In this multicenter, retrospective, cohort study, we examined 828 hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19 hospitalized in Wuhan Union Hospital and Central Hospital of Wuhan between January 12 and February 9, 2020. Among the 828 patients, 516 and 186 consecutive patients admitted in Wuhan Union Hospital were enrolled in the training cohort and the validation cohort, respectively. A total of 126 patients hospitalized in Central Hospital of Wuhan were enrolled in a second external validation cohort. Demographic, clinical, radiographic, and laboratory measures; treatment; proximate causes of death; and 14-day and 28-day mortality are described. Patients' data were collected by reviewing the medical records, and their 14-day and 28-day outcomes were followed up. RESULTS Of the 828 patients, 146 deaths were recorded until May 18, 2020. In the training set, multivariate Cox regression indicated that older age, lactate dehydrogenase level over 360 U/L, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio higher than 8.0, and direct bilirubin higher than 5.0 μmol/L were independent predictors of 28-day mortality. Nomogram scoring systems for predicting the 14-day and 28-day survival probability of patients with COVID-19 were developed and exhibited strong discrimination and calibration power in the two external validation cohorts (C-index, 0.878 and 0.839). CONCLUSION Older age, high lactate dehydrogenase level, evaluated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and high direct bilirubin level were independent predictors of 28-day mortality in adult hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19. The nomogram system based on the four factors revealed good discrimination and calibration, suggesting good clinical utility.

Abstract
Introduction
Fear of cancer recurrence is common in young adults with cancer and also related to poorer psychological outcomes. Sleep may be disrupted by anxious thoughts about cancer, causing long-term psychological distress. Thus, the current study tests sleep as a putative mediator of the association between fear of cancer recurrence and overall psychological distress in young adult cancer survivors.

In a national cross-sectional survey of Canadians, 436 young adults diagnosed with cancer between the ages of 15-39 (current age range 20-39, m=32.39, SD=4.70; 88% female) completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory—Short Form, and the Kessler 10 Distress Inventory. Mediation was estimated using PROCESS. Age, sex, and on/off treatment status were entered into models as covariates.
Results
In the current sample, average fear of cancer recurrence was above the clinical cut-point (m=22.92, SD=6.84), psychological distress was high (m=25.18, SD=7.81), and sleep quality was poor (m=9.11, SD=3.95). Females reported significantly higher fear of cancer recurrence than males [F(1, 435)=15.49, p <.001]. Patients on treatment reported significantly higher fear of cancer recurrence [F(1,435)=11.43, p=.001], poorer sleep quality [F(1,435)=6.48, p=.011], and greater psychological distress [F(1,435)=4.73, p <.001] than patients off treatment. Using a bootstrapping model with covariates, higher fear of cancer recurrence was related to poorer sleep quality and, in turn, higher psychological distress as indicated by the indirect effect’s confidence interval not containing 0 (indirect effect=.13; 95%CI=0.081, 0.189).
Conclusion
Sleep quality may play an important role in connecting the common experience of fear of cancer recurrence to psychological distress in young adult cancer survivors. Future longitudinal research is needed to examine this possible mediator of young adult cancer patients’ psychological distress outcomes over time.

Abstract
Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine that exerts its biological functions through interaction with its receptor system consisting of a ligand-specific IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) and a common signal-transducing receptor (gp130). In this study, OnIL-6R and Ongp130 genes from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were identified, and their roles in bacterial or viral infection and in regulation of inflammatory response involved in IL-6 were investigated. The open reading frames (ORFs) of OnIL-6R and Ongp130 are 2019 bp and 2679 bp, encoding 672 and 892 amino acids, respectively. Domain analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of OnIL-6R and Ongp130 showed that both of them contained a conserved Ig-like domain, FNIII domains, and a WSXWS motif. The transcripts of OnIL-6R and Ongp130 were widely expressed in all examined tissues. Following in vivo challenges with Streptococcus agalactia, Poly I: C and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the mRNAs of OnIL-6R and Ongp130 were notably induced in liver, head kidney and spleen. The transcriptional up-regulations of OnIL-6R and Ongp130 were also detected in Nile tilapia monocytes/macrophages and lymphocytes after in vitro stimulations with S. agalactiae, Poly I: C and LPS. Besides, increasing mRNA levels of the inflammation-related cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, and MIF) induced by recombinant OnIL-6 could be further enhanced by co-treatment with recombinant soluble OnIL-6R in lymphocytes. Furthermore, recombinant soluble Ongp130 suppressed the induction of expression of these cytokines in lymphocytes when co-stimulated with (r)OnIL-6 and (r)sOnIL-6R. Taken together, these results indicated that OnIL-6R and Ongp130 were likely involved in the resistance to bacterial or viral infection in Nile tilapia. Moreover, soluble OnIL-6R and soluble Ongp130 have an agonistic effect or antagonistic effect in the inflammation response involved in OnIL-6.

Abstract
Complement component 1q (C1q), together with C1r and C1s to form C1, recognize and bind immune complex to initiate the classical complement pathway. In this study, C1q subunit molecules (XlC1qA, XlC1qB, XlC1qC) were cloned and analyzed from Xenopus laevis (X. laevis). The open reading frame (ORF) of XlC1qA is 819 bp of nucleotide sequence encoding 272 amino acids, the ORF of XlC1qB is 711 bp encoding 236 aa, and the XlC1qC is consists of 732 bp encoding 243 aa. The deduced amino acid sequences contain a collagen-like region (CLR), Gly-X-Y repeats in the N-terminus and a C1q family domain at the C-terminus. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the XlC1qs are clustered with the amphibian clade. Expression analysis indicated that the XlC1qs exhibited constitutive expression in all examined tissues, with the highest expression in liver. Additionally, XlC1q could interact with heat-aggregated mouse IgG and IgM, Xenopus IgM and Nile tilapia IgM, respectively, indicating the functional conservation of XlC1q binding to immunoglobulins. Further, XlC1qs can inhibit C1q-dependent hemolysis of sensitized sheep red blood cells with concentration-dependent manner. These data collectively suggest that the function of C1qs in X. laevis may be conserved in interaction with immunoglobulins, as that of mammals and teleosts.

Abstract
CD38 is a multifunctional cell surface molecule that plays a crucial role in B cell activation, differentiation, and maturation in mammals with an increased expression in B cell maturation. In this study, a CD38-like molecule (OnCD38) was cloned and identified from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), and its functional characterization was investigated. The open reading frame of OnCD38 is 828 bp of the nucleotide sequence, encoding a polypeptide of 275 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of OnCD38 is highly homologous to other teleost fish and similar to mammals, containing extracellular, intracellular and transmembrane regions. Subcellular localization studies revealed that OnCD38 molecules were presented on the surface of B cells. Three healthy tilapia were used in each experimental group and control group. Following keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) challenge in vivo, the mRNA expression of OnCD38 was significantly up-regulated in peripheral blood, spleen, and head kidney, with an earlier up-regulation in the second challenge than the first one. The up-regulation of OnCD38 expression was also detected in head kidney leukocytes after stimulation with LPS, recombinant HomoIL-10 ((r)HomoIL-10), (r)OnIL-10, and LPS plus (r)OnIL-10 in vitro. Furthermore, the OnCD38 expression increased with the differentiation of B cells, reaching a high level (10.1 fold higher than resting mature B cells) at the plasma-like B cells. Taken together, in this study, these results indicate that the OnCD38 is likely involved in the T cell-dependent response and plays roles in B cell differentiation in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
PURPOSE The role of serum tumor markers (STMs) in the modern management of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations in lung cancer remains poorly described. In this study, we investigated whether STMs could be a valuable noninvasive tool to predict EGFR mutations and ALK positivity in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We retrospectively reviewed and included 1089 NSCLC patients who underwent EGFR or ALK mutation testing and STMs measurement prior to treatment. The differences in several clinical characteristics and STMs between the subgroups were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of EGFR mutations and ALK positivity. RESULTS EGFR mutations were found more frequently in females (63.11%), never-smokers (59.69%), and those with lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) (53.87%). Negative carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125, ferritin (FERR), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC), and soluble fragment of cytokeratin 19 (CYFRA 21-1) levels were significantly associated with EGFR mutations (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that ADC, never-smoker status, and negative CA 125 and SCC results were predictors of EGFR mutations (p < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve yielded an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.715 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.673-0.758) for the combination of the four factors. Positive ALK expression was found more frequently in younger patients (median age: 49 years), females (8.40%), never-smokers (8.82%), and those negative for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) (8.02%). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that younger age and never-smoker status were the only independent predictors of ALK positivity (p < 0.05). The ROC curve yielded an AUC of 0.760 (95% CI: 0.677-0.844) for the combination of these two factors. CONCLUSION STMs are associated with mutant EGFR status and could be integrated with other clinical factors to enhance the ability to distinguish EGFR mutation status among NSCLC patients. For ALK-positive patients, younger age and never-smoker status could predict the mutation status, whereas STMs could not.

Abstract
B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 (Blimp-1), a transcription factor containing zinc finger, is required and sufficient to trigger terminal differentiation of B cells in mammals. The Blimp-1 (OnBlimp-1) from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was identified and characterized its expression pattern during B cell activation and maturation. The cDNA of OnBlimp-1 open reading frame is 2547 bp encoding a protein of 848 amino acids and the predicted molecular weight is 93.36 kDa. OnBlimp-1 contains a SET domain and five ZnF_C2H2 domains, which shares high homology with that of other species. OnBlimp-1 transcription was detected in all examined tissues with high expression in the spleen (SPL). Analysis of sorted lymphocyte populations, including IgM+ and IgM- cells from peripheral blood (PBL), SPL and anterior kidney (AK), indicated that the OnBlimp-1 transcription was highly expressed in the IgM+ B cells. Upon LPS stimulation, OnBlimp-1 expression was up-regulated in tissues of PBL, SPL and AK significantly. The expression of OnBlimp-1, as well as the secreted IgM, was significantly up-regulated in the SPL and AK leukocytes stimulated with anti-OnIgM monoclonal antibody and LPS in vitro, respectively. Above results suggest that OnBlimp-1, a cytokine regulating the terminal differentiation of activated B cells to antibody-secreting cells, is likely to play important roles in B cell activation and maturation in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of serum miRNAlet-7a in laryngeal carcinoma and the effect of let-7a on proliferation and apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells. Methods: Real-time quantitative PCR was used to determine the expression level of serum miRNAlet-7a. The miRNA let-7a mimetic was synthesized and transiently transfected into the laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell line by cationic liposome method. The effects of up-regulation of let-7a expression on laryngeal cancer Hep-2 cells were detected by FCM and MTT assays,respectively. The association of let-7a levels with laryngeal cancer and the diagnostic value for laryngeal cancer were analyzed. Measurement data were taken by t test or analysis of variance; Counting data were analyzed by χ(2) test and Fisher exact probability method. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of let-7a for laryngeal cancer. Results: The relative expression of serum let-7a in healthy subjects was significantly higher than that in patients with laryngeal cancer (0.931±0.094) vs (0.380±0.113) (t=26.507,P<0.01). The relative expressions of serum let-7a in patients with laryngeal cancer before and after surgery were (0.380±0.113) vs(0.493±0.164),with significant difference (t=3.848,P<0.01).The relative expression of serum let-7a was related to lymph node metastasis (t=2.946, P<0.01). There was a positive correlation between the relative expression of let-7a in laryngeal carcinoma and that in serum (r=0.466,P=0.003). After transfection of let-7a mimics, Hep-2 cells showed an increased significant increase in the expression of let-7a (P<0.01), proliferation (P<0.01) and apoptosis (P<0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the best critical value for relative expression of let-7a in the diagnosis of laryngeal carcinoma was 0.557 with a sensitivity of 0.794,a specificity of 0.727,an area under curve(AUC) of 0.859,and a 95%CI of 0.773-0.926. Conclusions: miRNA let-7a can inhibit the proliferation of laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells and promote apoptosis. Serum let-7a is down-regulated in patients with laryngeal cancer and the level of let-7a is related to lymph node metastasis,which would help early diagnosis and postoperative disease monitoring of laryngeal cancer,but further research is needed.

Abstract
Folate-dependent one-carbon cycle metabolism (FOCM) plays a critical role in maintaining genomic stability through regulating DNA biosynthesis, repair and methylation. Folate metabolites as well as other metabolites in the FOCM are hypothesized to be altered when cells transition from normal to cancerous state. Using cells at different stages in their development into colorectal cancer, the FOCM metabolites were profiled as an effort to phenotype the cells, and the metabolite levels were compared to the expressions of related genes. Here, we investigate whether there is a correlation between the metabolite levels, DNA methylation levels and the expression of the related genes that drive the levels of these metabolites. Using CRL1459, APC10.1, HCT116 and Caco-2, we show for the first time that FOCM metabolites correlate with the gene expression patterns. These differences follow a trend that may facilitate distinguishing colon cells at the different stages as they transition into cancerous state. The folate distribution and methionine levels were found to be key in determining the staging of the colon cells in CRC development. Also, expression of CBS, MTRR and MAT genes may facilitate distinguishing between untransformed and transformed colon cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Obesity is associated with significant morbidity and mortality rates. Even modest weight loss may be associated with health benefits. Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a naturally occurring antioxidant. Studies have suggested anti-obesity properties of ALA; however, results are inconsistent. The purpose of this study is to conduct a meta-analysis of the effect of ALA on weight and body mass index (BMI). METHODS A comprehensive, systematic literature search identified 10 articles on randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies involving ALA. We conducted a meta-analysis of mean weight and BMI change differences between ALA and placebo treatment groups. RESULTS Alpha-lipoic acid treatment coincided with a statistically significant 1.27 kg (confidence interval = 0.25 to 2.29) greater mean weight loss compared with the placebo group. A significant overall mean BMI difference of -0.43 kg/ m2 (confidence interval = -0.82 to -0.03) was found between the ALA and placebo groups. Meta-regression analysis showed no significance in ALA dose on BMI and weight changes. Study duration significantly affected BMI change, but not weight change. CONCLUSIONS Alpha-lipoic acid treatment showed small, yet significant short-term weight loss compared with placebo. Further research is needed to examine the effect of different doses and the long-term benefits of ALA on weight management.

Abstract
Ag/Cu2O microstructures with diverse morphologies have been successfully synthesized with different initial reagents of silver nitrate (AgNO3) by a facile one-step solvothermal method. Their structural and morphological characteristics were carefully investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the experimental results showed that the morphologies transformed from microcubes for pure Cu2O to microspheres with rough surfaces for Ag/Cu2O. The photocatalytic activities were evaluated by measuring the degradation of methyl orange (MO) aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic efficiencies of MO firstly increased to a maximum and then decreased with the increased amount of AgNO3. The experimental results revealed that the photocatalytic activities were significantly influenced by the amount of AgNO3 during the preparation process. The possible reasons for the enhanced photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared Ag/Cu2O composites were discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) is a popular and classic herb in traditional Chineses medicines. The objective is to confirm the effects of aqueous extract of S. miltiorrhiza (ESM) and its main ingredient on the promotion of orthodontic tooth movement and healing of periodontal ligament in rat. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n= 150) were divided into five groups: model control group (0.5 ml/kg phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) injection), ESM group (0.75 g/kg/day of crude drugs) and Danshensu subgroups (250, 500, 750 mg/kg/day of body weight). All rats were administered intramuscularly into the buccal vestibular mucosa of first molar of left maxillary. The indicators such as the moving distance of orthodontic tooth, nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) expression and osteoclasts were tested. RESULTS The expressions of RANKL and OPG in the treatment groups were obviously enhanced compared with control group (P<0.05). The increase rate of OPG expression was slower than that of RANKL. But, RANKL decreased conspicuously after no orthodontic pressure was applied, especially in the treatment groups (Danshengsu high dose group at day 30: 2.17 versus 3.47 of control, P<0.01). ESM groups promoted osteoclasts proliferation in the first 20 days. CONCLUSION There is a relationship between RANKL/OPG ratio and the number of osteoclasts. ESM might accelerate periodontal alteration of rat orthodontic tooth via producing more osteoclasts.
