Abstract
OBJECTIVE Tubal ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Studies have suggested that infection-induced inflammatory responses are major risk factors for EP. The aim of the present study was to find an association between MMP2 and CD63 gene variants and risk of EP during Chlamydia trachomatis infection in an Indian population. METHODS Fallopian tube samples of 120 EP and 120 tubal ligation women were collected. C. trachomatis was detected by PCR. The genotyping of MMP2 (rs17859882 G/T, rs7201A/C) and CD63(rs2231464 C/T, rs376086542 A/G) gene variants was done by qualitative real-time PCR using allelic discrimination method (VIC- and FAM-labeled). RESULTS The frequency of GG or GT genotype of MMP2 G/T polymorphism (rs17859882) was 66.6% in infected EP and 36.7% in uninfected EP and 22% in tubal ligation controls (P < 0.0001), while the frequency of AC or CC genotype of MMP2 A/C polymorphism (rs7201) was 66.6% in infected EP and 20.6% in uninfected EP and 13.5% in tubal ligation controls (P < 0.0001). The frequency of CT or TT genotype of CD63 C/T polymorphism (rs2231464) was 74% in infected EP and 21.8% in uninfected EP and 11.8% tubal ligation controls (P < 0.0001), while the frequency of AG or GG genotype of CD63 A/G polymorphism (rs376086542) was 48.1% in infected EP and 41.3% in uninfected EP and 18.6% tubal ligation controls (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The present study revealed a strong association between the presence of gene variants MMP2 (rs17859882 G/T, rs7201A/C) and CD63 (rs2231464 C/T, rs376086542 A/G) and risk of tubal EP during C. trachomatis infection.

Abstract
AIMS Synovial sarcoma is a rare but aggressive variant of soft-tissue sarcoma. Literature is sparse and reported mostly from the West. We analysed the clinical profiles and prognostic factors of extremity synovial sarcoma patients in order to study their clinical journey. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective analysis. All patients with extremity synovial sarcoma treated between 1992 and 2020 were included. Patients with metastases at presentation were excluded. A descriptive analysis of demographic and clinicopathological features of patients undergoing limb salvage surgery (LSS) or amputation was carried out. Overall survival and disease-free survival were calculated for the entire cohort as well as for the LSS and amputation groups. Factors prognostic for survival were identified. RESULTS In total, 157 patients had localised extremity synovial sarcoma. Predominantly, young adults (median 31 years) and males (61%) were affected. Over 70% of patients presented after recurrence or unplanned surgeries. Sixty-seven per cent of tumours were >5 cm, 69% were deep and 23% involved bone. The limb salvage rate was 64%. In the LSS group, adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy were given to 72% and 68% of patients, respectively. In the amputation group, 72% of patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. In a median follow-up of 59 months, 39.4% of patients had recurrences, the majority (61.2%) were systemic. Five-year overall survival and disease-free survival were 53.4% and 49.8%, respectively. Overall survival was 63.9% and 29.7% in the LSS and amputation groups, respectively. On multivariate analysis, tumour size, depth, omission of radiotherapy and bone invasion were found to be the adverse prognostic factors. CONCLUSION This is one of the largest studies on extremity synovial sarcoma. Mostly males and young adults were affected. The limb salvage rate was 64%, despite most being referred after unplanned surgery. Almost 70% of patients received radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Overall survival was inferior in the amputation group. Tumour size >5 cm, depth and bone invasion were negative, whereas adjuvant radiotherapy was a positive prognostic factor for survival. Chemotherapy had no impact on survival.

Abstract
Radiology has seen tremendous evolution in the last few decades. At the same time, oncology has made great strides in diagnosing and treating cancer. Distant metastases of neoplasms are being encountered more often in light of longer patient survival due to better therapeutic strategies and diagnostic methods. Brain metastasis (BM) is a dismal manifestation of systemic cancer. In the present scenario, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) are playing a big role in providing molecular information about cancer. Lately, molecular imaging has emerged as a stirring arena of dynamic imaging techniques that have enabled clinicians and scientists to noninvasively visualize and understand biological processes at the cellular and molecular levels. This knowledge has impacted etiopathogenesis, detection, personalized treatment, drug development, and our understanding of carcinogenesis. This article offers insight into the molecular biology underlying brain metastasis, its pathogenesis, imaging protocols, and algorithms. It also discusses disease-specific molecular imaging features, focusing on common tumors that spread to the brain, such as lung, breast, colorectal cancer, melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma. Additionally, it covers various targeted treatment options, criteria for assessing treatment response, and the role of artificial intelligence in diagnosing, managing, and predicting prognosis for patients with brain metastases.

Abstract
Gliomas are the commonest malignant central nervous system tumours in adults and imaging is the cornerstone of diagnosis, treatment, and post-treatment follow-up of these patients. With the ever-evolving treatment strategies post-treatment imaging and interpretation in glioma remains challenging, more so with the advent of anti-angiogenic drugs and immunotherapy, which can significantly alter the appearance in this setting, thus making interpretation of routine imaging findings such as contrast enhancement, oedema, and mass effect difficult to interpret. This review details the various methods of management of glioma including the upcoming novel therapies and their impact on imaging findings, with a comprehensive description of the imaging findings in conventional and advanced imaging techniques. A systematic appraisal for the existing and emerging techniques of imaging in these settings and their clinical application including various response assessment guidelines and artificial intelligence based response assessment will also be discussed.

Abstract
PROBLEM Increased oxidative stress (OS) and inflammatory responses are major underlying factors behind Chlamydia trachomatis-associated recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). miRNAs are known to regulate inflammation and OS and their dysregulation has been associated with compromised pregnancies. Therefore, aim of this study was to investigate the expression/correlation of OS biomarkers, cytokines and miRNAs in C. trachomatis-associated RSA. METHOD OF STUDY Urine and non-heparinized blood samples were collected from RSA patients with history of >3 consecutive abortions (cases) and non-pregnant women with history of >2 successful deliveries (controls) attending Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi. C. trachomatis detection was done in urine by PCR. miRNA expression was studied by microarray analysis and validated by real time-PCR. Evaluation of cytokines and antioxidant genes expression were done by real-time PCR. Level of OS biomarkers 8-hydroxy guanosine (8-OHdG) and 8-isporostane (8-IP) were measured by ELISA. RESULTS Fifty circulating miRNAs were differentially expressed in infected patients compared with controls. Of these, four were overexpressed and 46 downregulated. Thirteen differentially expressed circulating miRNAs were selected to validate microarray results. miRs-8069, -3663-3p showed maximum upregulation/downregulation in infected versus control group. Expression of cytokines (IL-8, TNF-α, IFN-γ), antioxidant genes SOD2 and OS biomarkers (8-OHdG,8-IP) were increased while SOD1 was decreased in infected patients. miR-8069 showed significant positive correlation with cytokines, SOD2, 8-OHdG and 8-IP. miR-3663-3p showed significant positive correlation with SOD1. CONCLUSIONS Overall results indicate circulating miRNAs are involved in pathogenesis of C. trachomatis-associated RSA and are potential modulators of cytokine signalling and OS in infected RSA.

Abstract
miRNAs regulate the expression of various genes involved in cellular and metabolic pathways in pregnancy related complications including recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). Modulation of progesterone and associated pro-inflammatory cytokines by miRNAs in Chlamydia trachomatis-associated RSA is still under investigation. Present study aimed to evaluate the expression/correlation of serum-circulating miRNAs-133a, 101-3p, 320b, 146b-5p, 24, 559, progesterone and few cytokines in C. trachomatis-positive spontaneous aborters. Non-heparinized blood and urine was collected from 120 patients with history of RSA (Group I) and 120 patients with ≥ 2 successful deliveries (Group II) attending Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi, India. C. trachomatis detection was performed by PCR and chlamydial load by real time PCR. Progesterone concentration was estimated by ELISA. miRNAs and cytokine expression was studied by quantitative real-time PCR and correlated with progesterone expression. Twenty six patients were found to be positive for C. trachomatis. miRNAs- 133a, 101-3p showed maximum upregulation in infected versus control patients. miRNA expression showed positive correlation with chlamydial load. Progesterone concentration showed significant decrease while cytokines (IL-6, IFN-γ, TNF-α) were significantly upregulated in C. trachomatis-positive patients. Positive correlation was observed between expression of miRNAs-133a and 101-3p and cytokines while negative correlation was observed with progesterone in infected RSA patients. Correlation between progesterone and cytokines was found to be significantly negative in infected RSA patients. Although further validation is required, the study concludes that miR-133a and 101-3p are of clinical importance and have a role in immunoregulation of progesterone and cytokines in infection associated RSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is a global health concern. Studies reveal infections are majorly responsible for sPTB and immune activation markers play a role in regulation of maternal immune responses against pathogens during sPTB. AIM To study the mRNA expression and correlation of activation markers (CD66a, ICAM1, ITGB1, TIM3, CD25, CD95) and associated cytokines (IL-1β and IL-17)/prostaglandin receptors (EP2 and IP) in the placenta of Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum-infected sPTB women. METHODS Placental samples were collected from 160 sPTB and 160 term birth women. PCR was used for the detection of C. trachomatis, M. hominis, U. urealyticum. The mRNA expression of activation markers, cytokines and prostaglandin receptors was evaluated by real-time qPCR. RESULTS The fold-change expression of CD66a, ICAM1, TIM3, CD25 and CD95 was 2.89, 5.5, 4.95, 6.44 and 6.95-fold (p < 0.001), respectively; while for cytokines- IL-1β and IL-17 was 5.41 and 4.71-fold (p < 0.001), respectively and for prostaglandin receptors- EP2 and IP was 5.5 and 5-fold (p < 0.001) upregulated, respectively in infected sPTB women. Significant positive correlation was obtained among ICAM-1 and IL-1β/EP2/IL-17, TIM3 and IP/IL-17. Significant negative correlation was obtained between CD66a and EP2/IL-17, CD25 and IL-1β/EP2, CD95 and IL-1β/EP2 in infected sPTB women. CONCLUSIONS CD66a, ICAM1 and TIM3 may play role in inflammation and have potential for the clinical beginning of preterm labour during infection while CD25 and CD95 are possibly involved in immunotolerance at feto-maternal interface during C. trachomatis, M. hominis and U. urealyticum infection.

Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis infection is a major cause of sexually transmitted diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) have been known to be upregulated/downregulated in various reproductive-associated diseases such as ectopic pregnancy, preterm birth and pre-eclampsia. However, there is paucity of literature on miRNA profile in C. trachomatis-infected RSA. The present study aimed to determine the profile of serum miRNAs followed by their validation in C. trachomatis-infected RSA and to find target genes involved in biological pathways. Non-heparinized blood and first void urine were collected from 30 non-pregnant women with RSA and 30 non-pregnant women with ≥2 successful deliveries (controls) attending Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi, India. C. trachomatis detection was done in urine by PCR and chlamydial load was determined by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). miRNA expression was studied by microarray analysis followed by in vitro validation by qRT-PCR. Analysis of target genes/pathways was characterized in silico. 06 RSA patients were infected with C. trachomatis, while chlamydial load was found to be 6000-12,000 copies/ml. 110 circulating miRNAs were expressed differentially in infected RSA patients compared with controls. Of these, 16 were overexpressed and 94 downregulated. 06 differentially expressed circulating miRNAs were selected to validate the microarray results. qRT-PCR data confirmed the reliability of the microarray results: miR-4443, -5100, -7975 showed statistically significant upregulation, while miR-6808-5p, -3148, -6727-5p were significantly downregulated in infected RSA patients versus controls. Chlamydial load was positively correlated with these upregulated miRNAs. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis revealed that target genes of miRNAs in RSA are involved in AMPK, Akt and mTOR signaling pathways. Overall results indicate that differentially expressed circulating miRNAs are involved in pathogenesis of C. trachomatis-associated RSA and have the potential to be used as biomarkers for predicting RSA.

Abstract
PROBLEM Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is a global health issue. Studies suggest infection and infection-based inflammatory responses are major risk factors for sPTB. Considering the important role of anti-inflammatory proteins in pregnancy, the study aimed to find the association between anti-inflammatory LGALS13 gene variants IVS2-22 A/G (rs2233706) and IVS3+72 T/A (rs2233708) and the risk of sPTB during Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum infection in Indian population. METHOD OF STUDY Placental samples of 160 sPTB and 160 term women were collected. Pathogens were detected by PCR. The genotyping of LGALS13 gene variants IVS2-22 A/G (rs2233706) and IVS3+72 T/A (rs2233708) was done by qualitative real-time PCR using allelic discrimination method (VIC- and FAM-labeled). RESULTS The frequency of AG or GG genotype of LGALS13 IVS2-22A/G polymorphism (rs2233706) was 75.5% in infected sPTB cases and 14.4% in uninfected sPTB cases and 7.3% in term birth controls (p < .0001), while the frequency of TA or AA genotype of LGALS13 IVS3+72T/A polymorphism (rs2233708) was 83.6% in infected sPTB cases and 18% in uninfected sPTB cases and 12.7% in term birth controls (p < .0001). The genotypic frequencies for both the variants of LGALS13 were statistically significant (p < .0001) in the infected sPTB versus uninfected sPTB and term birth controls. CONCLUSIONS Study reveals strong association between the presence of immunological gene variants LGALS13 IVS2-22 A/G (rs2233706) and LGALS13 IVS3+72 T/A (rs2233708) and risk of sPTB during C. trachomatis, M. hominis and U. urealyticum infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chlamydia trachomatis is a frequent cause of adverse pregnancy outcomes including recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). However, regulation of infectious load by host immune response is unknown. Female sex hormones are known to affect C. trachomatis infection. The aim of this study was to determine correlation of chlamydial infectious load and gestational age with concentration of progesterone/estrogen in RSA. METHODOLOGY Urine and non-heparinized blood were collected from patients with history of > 3 spontaneous abortions (n = 150, cases) and those with history of > 2 successful deliveries (n = 150, controls) from Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi, India. C. trachomatis positivity was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and chlamydial load by real-time PCR. Estrogen and progesterone concentrations were estimated by ELISA and correlated with chlamydial load. RESULTS 22/150 case patients were positive for C. trachomatis. 2,000-10,000 copies/mL of chlamydial load were detected in infected RSA patients. Progesterone concentration showed significant decrease while estrogen concentration was significantly increased in C. trachomatis-positive RSA patients versus controls. Chlamydial load and estrogen concentration were positively correlated while progesterone concentration was negatively correlated with chlamydial load. Gestational age was positively correlated with concentration of estrogen and negatively correlated with concentration of progesterone in infected-RSA women. CONCLUSIONS Overall findings suggest that interplay between chlamydial copy load, hormonal changes such as increased expression of estrogen and decreased expression of progesterone, and advanced gestational age may be contributing as deciding factors for ensuing RSA during C. trachomatis-infection.

Abstract
Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is a global health concern and it is the most prevalent cause of infant mortality and morbidity with occurrence rate of 5 - 18% worldwide. Studies suggest infection and infection-driven activation of inflammatory responses are the potential risk factors for sPTB. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are thought to control the expression of several immune genes, making them crucial components of the intricate immune regulatory network and the dysregulation of miRNAs in placenta has been associated to several pregnancy-related complications. However, studies on possible role of miRNAs in immunomodulation of cytokine signalling in infection-associated sPTB are scarce. Present study aimed to investigate expression/ correlation of a few circulating miRNAs (miR-223, -150-5p, -185-5p, -191-5p), miRNA target genes and associated cytokines in sPTB women found infected with Chlamydia trachomatis/ Mycoplasma hominis/ Ureaplasma urealyticum. Non-heparinized blood and placental sample were collected from 140 sPTB and 140 term women visiting Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi (India) for conducting PCR and RT-PCR for pathogen detection and miRNA/ target gene/ cytokine expression, respectively. Common target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs were obtained from databases. The correlation between select target genes/ cytokines and serum miRNAs was determined by Spearman's rank correlation. 43 sPTB were infected with either pathogen and a significant upregulation of serum miRNAs was observed. However, miR-223 and 150-5p showed maximum fold-change (4.78 and 5.58, respectively) in PTB versus control group. IL-6ST, TGF-β R3 and MMP-14 were important target genes among 454 common targets, whereas, IL-6 and TGF-β were associated cytokines. miR-223 and 150-5p showed significant negative correlation with IL-6ST/ IL-6/ MMP-14 and positive correlation with TGF-β R3/ TGF-β. A significant positive correlation was found between IL-6ST and IL-6, TGF-β R3 and TGF-β. However, miR-185-5p and 191-5p were not significantly correlated. Although post-transcriptional validation is required, yet on the basis of mRNA findings, the study concludes that miR-223 and 150-5p are apparently of clinical importance in regulation of inflammatory processes during infection-associated sPTB.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is a global health issue. Studies suggest infections are chiefly associated with sPTB and galectins (gals) play a role in regulation of innate and adaptive maternal immune response against pathogens during sPTB. The aim of this study was to describe the gene expression of gal -1, -3, -8, -9, -13 in relation to gene expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and the cytokines IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α, IFN-ϒ in the setting of sPTB and confirmed infection with Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma urealyticum. METHODS Placental samples were collected from 120 term control and 120 sPTB pregnancies. PCR was used to detect specific pathogens. Gene expression of galectins, cytokines, and COX-2 was performed using real time qPCR. RESULTS Fold-change expression of gal -1, -3, -8, -9, -13 was 5.13, 6.11, 1.14, 5.23 and 7.16 (p<0.001), respectively; while IL-10, IL-8, TNF-α, IFN-ϒ and COX-2 was 6.29, 6.55, 6.35, 6.36 and 2.73-fold upregulated (p<0.05), respectively in infected sPTB. Gal-1 was positively correlated with IL-10 (r=0.49, p=0.003) while gal-3 showed significant correlation with IL-8 (r=0.42, p=0.0113), TNF-α (r=0.65, p=< 0.001) and COX-2 (r=0.72, p=0.001). However, gal-8 was not significantly correlated with any cytokine. Gal-9, -13 were negatively correlated with IFN-ϒ (r=-0.45, p=0.006) and IL-8 (r=-0.39, p=0.018). DISCUSSION Gal-1, -9, -13 are anti-inflammatory and might play role in immune-tolerance while gal-3 is pro-inflammatory and possibly responsible for immunogenic response, having potential to anticipate the clinical beginning of preterm labour during infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress generated by Chlamydia trachomatis infection is associated with reproductive complications such as recurrent spontaneous abortion. Aim of prospective study was to evaluate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of SOD1 and SOD2 gene are associated with C. trachomatis-infected recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). METHODS 150 patients with history of RSA and 150 patients with history of successful deliveries were recruited from Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi, India. Urine and non-heparinized blood samples were collected and C. trachomatis was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Using qualitative real time PCR, SNPs rs4998557 (SOD1) and rs4880 (SOD2) were screened in enrolled patients. Level of 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 8-isoprostane (8-IP), progesterone and estrogen was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and correlated with SNPs. RESULTS Significant differences were found in frequency of AA genotype of SOD1 gene among RSA patients versus controls, (82% and 54.66%, respectively; p = 0.02; OR 0.40; CI 95%). Frequency of AA genotype of SOD1 gene among RSA patients with C. trachomatis infection was 87.33%, while in uninfected RSA patients was 71.33% (p < 0.0001; OR 8; CI 95%). No significant relation was found between SOD2 (rs4880) genotype and RSA. Furthermore, significant increase in 8-OHdG, 8-IP and estrogen and significant decrease in progesterone was observed among patients carrying AA genotype. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest the clinical importance of AA genotype along with 8-OHdG, 8-IP and estrogen and progesterone in screening C. trachomatis-infected RSA women.

Abstract
Mechanism of Chlamydia trachomatis causing tubal ectopic pregnancy (EP) is not well understood. Tetraspanins (tspans), activin-A, and inhibin-A might play a role in the development of pathological conditions leading to EP. The study aimed to elucidate the expression of tspans, activin-A, and inhibin-A with a role of associated cytokines in C. trachomatis-associated EP and analyze interacting partners of DEGs, with an expression of a few important interacting genes. Fallopian tissue and serum were collected from 100 EP (Group I) and 100 controls (Group II) from SJH, New Delhi, India. Detection of C. trachomatis was done by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and IgG antibodies were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Expression of tspans, activin-A, inhibin-A, and cytokines was analyzed by real time (RT)-PCR and their interacting genes were assessed by STRING. Expression of few disease-associated interacting genes was studied by RT-PCR. A total of 29% (Group I) were C. trachomatis positive. Tspans and activin-A were significantly upregulated, while inhibin-A was significantly downregulated in Group Ia. ITGA1, TLR-2, ITGB2, and Smad-3 were a few interacting genes. Expression of ITGA1, TLR-2, and Smad-3 was significantly upregulated in C. trachomatis-positive EP. Results suggested dysregulated tspans, activin-A, and inhibin-A might play a role in C. trachomatis-infected tubal EP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There remains controversy regarding the outcomes resulting from treatment versus conservative management of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) among preterm infants. The effects of extreme prematurity, hemodynamic status of the PDA, and age at treatment remain poorly defined. STUDY DESIGN This retrospective case-control study including infants < 1250 gm who were categorized into 3 groups: Group 1: without PDA, Group 2: with untreated PDA, and Group 3: treated PDA. Diagnosis and treatment of PDA extracted from the medical records. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and outcomes compared using chi-square and analysis of variance. Logistic regression used to estimate adjusted odds ratios. RESULTS The study included 734 infants, with 141(19%) in Group 1, 329 (45%) in 2, and 264 (36%) in 3. Group 3 had higher incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (aOR, 2.9; 95%CI 1.7-4.8). Infant treated for hemodynamically significant PDA (HSPDA) had higher incidence of BPD (aOR, 1.9; 95%CI 1.0-3.8) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) (aOR, 3.4; 95%CI 1.6-6.9). There were no differences in outcome associated with treatment among≤26 weeks gestation and the age when treated. CONCLUSION Infants with PDA who were treated had higher incidence of BPD. Among those who were treated, those with HSPDA had a higher incidence of BPD and ROP.

Abstract
Studies behind mechanisms of Chlamydia trachomatis-induced recurrent spontaneous abortion is still in its infancy. Possible strategy for preventing recurrent spontaneous abortion at molecular level is needed. Despite its multifactorial aetiology, Chlamydia trachomatis is important cause of RSA. However, mechanism leading to RSA in C. trachomatis-positive patients is not understood and novel strategies are needed. It is hypothesized that microRNAs play important role in RSA regulation during infection. Study aimed to elucidate expression/role of urine-circulating miRs-320b, 221-3p, 146b-5p,-16,-24,-559 in recurrent spontaneous aborters with C. trachomatis infection and to find their target genes by bioinformatic analysis. First-void urine was collected from 30 non-pregnant women with RSA (Group I) and 30 non-pregnant women with ≥2 successful deliveries (Group II; Controls) attending Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College, Safdarjung hospital, New Delhi (India). PCR was performed to detect C. trachomatis. Expression of miRNAs was studied by quantitative real-time PCR while target genes/functional annotations were predicted by GO/KEGG databases. Data was statistically evaluated. 05 RSA patients were C. trachomatis-positive. Group I was subdivided into Group Ia (C. trachomatis-positive RSA; n = 5) and Group Ib (C. trachomatis-negative RSA; internal controls). miR-320b, -221-3p, -146b-5p, -16, -24 were significantly upregulated (miR-16 showed maximum 4.3 fold-change) while miR-559 was downregulated (0.5 fold-change) in Group Ia versus controls ('p'<0.001). Bioinformatic analysis revealed that target genes of miRNAs in RSA are involved in apoptosis and AMPK signalling pathways. Results showed differential expression of miRNAs implyingmiR-16 and miR-559 as potential biomarkers of RSA in infected women. Furthermore, network of genes of differentially expressed miRNAs regulates RSA by targeting gene function in apoptosis, cell adhesion and angiogenesis.

Abstract
The interest in the working and functionality of the human gut microbiome has increased drastically over the years. Though the existence of gut microbes has long been speculated for long over the last few decades, a lot of research has sprung up in studying and understanding the role of gut microbes in the human digestive tract. The microbes present in the gut are highly instrumental in maintaining the metabolism in the body. Further research is going on in this field to understand how gut microbes can be employed as potential sources of novel therapeutics; moreover, probiotics have also elucidated their significant place in this direction. As regards the clinical perspective, microbes can be engineered to afford defence mechanisms while interacting with foreign pathogenic bodies. More investigations in this field may assist us to evaluate and understand how these cells communicate with human cells and promote immune interactions. Here we elaborate on the possible implication of human gut microbiota into the immune system as well as explore the probiotics in the various human ailments. Comprehensive information on the human gut microbiome at the same platform may contribute effectively to our understanding of the human microbiome and possible mechanisms of associated human diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The absence of melanocytes poses a challenge for long-term tissue homeostasis in vitiligo. Surprisingly, while individuals with Fitzpatrick phototypes I-II (low melanin content) have a higher incidence of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer, people with vitiligo are at a decreased risk for the same. OBJECTIVES To understand the molecular mechanisms that protect vitiligo skin from ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage by (i) characterizing differentially expressed microRNAs in lesional vs. nonlesional epidermis and (ii) identifying their upstream regulators and downstream gene targets. METHODS Genome-wide microRNA profiling of nonlesional and lesional epidermis was performed on five individuals with stable nonsegmental vitiligo using next-generation RNA sequencing. The relevance of the upstream regulator and downstream target gene of the most differentially expressed microRNA was studied. RESULTS Our study found sirtuin1 (SIRT1), an NAD-dependent deacetylase, to be a direct target of miR-211 - the most significantly downregulated microRNA in lesional epidermis. Inhibition of SIRT1 with EX-527 downregulated keratin 10 and involucrin, suggesting that SIRT1 promotes keratinocyte differentiation. Overexpression of miR-211 mimic led to a significant increase in γ-H2AX positivity and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) formation, hallmarks of UVB-mediated DNA damage. These effects could be ameliorated by the addition of resveratrol, a SIRT1 activator. Furthermore, a long noncoding RNA, MALAT1, was identified as a negative upstream regulator of miR-211. Overexpression of MALAT1 resulted in increased expression of SIRT1 and a concomitant removal of UVB-induced CPDs in primary keratinocytes. CONCLUSIONS These findings establish a novel MALAT1-miR-211-SIRT1 signalling axis that potentially confers protection to the 'amelanotic' keratinocytes in vitiligo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study explored the chemoprophylactic potential of roflumilast against 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) actuated preneoplastic colon damage in albino Wistar rats. METHODS Animals were arbitrarily divided into five groups of six animals each. DMH was used to induce preneoplastic colon damage (20 mg/kg/7 days, subcutaneously, for 42 days). Roflumilast was administered subcutaneously at two doses (1 and 5 mg/kg/day, from day 28 to 42). At the end of the study, the animals were recorded for the electrocardiographic changes and heart rate variability (HRV) paradigms on 42nd day, using PowerLab system. Blood samples were collected from all the animals to measure hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric acid. The colon tissue was dissected out and analyzed for inflammatory markers, biochemical parameters including, superoxide dismutase, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, catalase, and glutathione reductase and histopathology. RESULTS DMH caused derangement of HRV factors, abnormal antioxidant markers, and elevated levels of inflammatory markers. H2S and nitric oxide levels upsurge in DMH-treated rats and promoted preneoplastic damage. Histopathologically, loss of crypts, goblet cells, and distorted lamina propria were observed in toxic group. Treatment with roflumilast was able to curtail down oxidative stress and inflammatory markers and stabilitate the hemodynamic derangements as well as was able to restore the normal architecture of colonic mucosa. CONCLUSION The findings from the present study conclude that treatment with roflumilast positively modulates the preneoplastic colon damage.

Abstract
Cytokines might be involved in spontaneous abortion by triggering inflammatory mediators (Cyclooxygenases (Cox)) leading to spontaneous abortion in Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct)-infected women. Study aimed to quantitate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-8) and Cox-2 in endometrial curettage tissue (ECT) of Spontaneous Aborters (SA). SA (n = 135) and 120 age-matched controls were enrolled from SJH, New Delhi, India. PCR was performed for detection of Ct MOMP gene (537 bp) in ECT. mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and Cox-2 was assessed by real-time qPCR. Data was statistically evaluated. 14.8% SA were diagnosed as Ct-positive. Elevated expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-8 and Cox-2 was observed in Ct-infected SA. Ct-positive recurrent aborters showed significantly higher cytokine expression. Significant positive correlation was found between expression of Cox-2 and TNF-α in infected SA. Data suggested an increased expression of Th-1 cytokines, particularly TNF-α that induced Cox-2 expression in ECT, leading to spontaneous abortion in Ct-infected pregnant women.

Abstract
The pituitary function is regulated by a complex system involving the hypothalamus and biological networks within the pituitary. Although the hormones secreted from the pituitary have been well studied, comprehensive analyses of the pituitary proteome are limited. Pituitary proteomics is a field of postgenomic research that is crucial to understand human health and pituitary diseases. In this context, we report here a systematic proteomic profiling of human anterior pituitary gland (adenohypophysis) using high-resolution Fourier transform mass spectrometry. A total of 2164 proteins were identified in this study, of which 105 proteins were identified for the first time compared with high-throughput proteomic-based studies from human pituitary glands. In addition, we identified 480 proteins with secretory potential and 187 N-terminally acetylated proteins. These are the first region-specific data that could serve as a vital resource for further investigations on the physiological role of the human anterior pituitary glands and the proteins secreted by them. We anticipate that the identification of previously unknown proteins in the present study will accelerate biomedical research to decipher their role in functioning of the human anterior pituitary gland and associated human diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about the mental health (MH) hospitalization among patients with acne and rosacea. AIMS To determine the MH disorders and cost burden associated with acne and rosacea. METHODS Data were examined from the 2002-2012 US National Inpatient Sample, comprising a sample of ~20% of all US paediatric and adult hospitalizations (n = 87 053 155 admissions). RESULTS A diagnosis of ≥ 1 MH disorder was much more common among all inpatients with vs. those without a diagnosis of acne (43.7% vs. 20.0%, respectively) and rosacea (35.1% vs. 20.0%, respectively). In multivariable logistic regression models controlling for sex, age, race/ethnicity and insurance status, acne (adjusted OR = 13.02; 95% CI 11.75-14.42) and rosacea (adjusted OR = 1.70; 95% CI 1.56-1.95) were associated with significantly higher odds of a primary admission for an MH disorder (13 and 8, respectively, of 15 MH disorders examined). Both acne and rosacea were associated with higher risk of mood, anxiety, impulse control and personality disorders, and with > $2 million of excess mean annual costs of hospitalization for MH disorders in the USA. CONCLUSION In this study, inpatients with acne or rosacea had increased odds of comorbid MH disorders. In particular, there was an increased number of hospital admissions secondary to a primary MH disorder with coexistent acne/rosacea. MH comorbidities were associated with considerable excess costs among inpatients with acne or rosacea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brodalumab, a fully human anti-interleukin-17 receptor A monoclonal antibody, has demonstrated superior efficacy and safety over ustekinumab as induction therapy for moderate-to-severe psoriasis. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brodalumab through week 52 in patients who had inadequate responses to ustekinumab. METHODS A subgroup analysis of the phase III AMAGINE-2/-3 double-blind randomized controlled trials was performed. Participants were aged 18-75 years and had a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) ≥ 12, static Physician's Global Assessment score ≥ 3 and involvement of ≥ 10% body surface area. The studies were registered at ClinicalTrials.gov: AMAGINE-2, NCT01708603; AMAGINE-3, NCT01708629. RESULTS At baseline, patients with or without prior biologic experience who had an adequate response at week 16 on ustekinumab or brodalumab had lower rates of involved body surface area, PASI, prior biologic use, psoriatic arthritis and body mass index than patients who experienced inadequate response at or after week 16. Among patients who experienced inadequate response to ustekinumab, those rescued with brodalumab had PASI ≥ 75%, ≥ 90% and 100% improvement response rates of 72·6%, 58·1% and 36·3%, respectively, at week 52 compared with 61·7%, 25·5% and 5·4%, respectively, in patients who continued ustekinumab. Exposure-adjusted rates of treatment-emergent adverse events were similar among patients rescued with brodalumab (377·3 adverse events per 100 patient-years) and those who remained on ustekinumab (389·9 adverse events per 100 patient-years). CONCLUSIONS Among patients who experienced inadequate responses to ustekinumab, rescue with brodalumab improved skin clearance outcomes compared with continuing ustekinumab.
