Abstract
AIM To investigate the metabolism and disposition characteristics of HSK7653 in healthy male Chinese participants. METHODS A single oral dose of 80 μCi (25 mg) [14C]HSK7653 capsules was administered to six healthy participants, and blood, plasma, urine and faeces were collected. Quantitative and qualitative analysis was conducted to investigate the pharmacokinetics, blood-to-plasma ratio, mass balance and metabolism of HSK7653. RESULTS The drug was well absorbed and reached a maximum concentration at 1.25 h. The drug-related components (HSK7653 and its metabolites) were eliminated slowly, with a half-life (t1/2) of 111 h. Unchanged HSK7653 contributed to more than 97% of the total radioactivity in all plasma samples. The blood-to-plasma ratio (0.573-0.845) indicated that HSK7653 did not tend to distribute into blood cells. At 504 h postdose, up to 95.9% of the dose was excreted, including 79.8% in urine and 16.1% in faeces. Most of the radioactivity (75.5% dose) in excreta was unchanged HSK7653. In addition, nine metabolites were detected in urine and faeces. The most abundant metabolite was M6-2, a dioxidation product of HSK7653, which accounted for 4.73% and 2.63% of the dose in urine and faeces, respectively. The main metabolic pathways of HSK7653 in vivo included oxidation, pyrrole ring opening and sulphonamide hydrolysation. CONCLUSION HSK7653 was well absorbed, slightly metabolized and slowly excreted in humans. The high plasma exposure and long t1/2 of HSK7653 may contribute to its long-lasting efficacy as a long-acting dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor.

Abstract
Neoantigen cancer vaccines have been envisioned as one of the most promising means for cancer therapies. However, identifying neoantigens for tumor types with low tumor mutation burdens continues to limit the effectiveness of neoantigen vaccines. Herein, we proposed a "hit-and-run" vaccine strategy which primes T cells to attack tumor cells decorated with exogenous "neo-antigens". This vaccine strategy utilizes a peptide nanovaccine to elicit antigen-specific T cell responses after tumor-specific decoration with a nanocarrier containing the same peptide antigens. We demonstrated that a poly(2-oxazoline)s (POx) conjugated with OVA257-264 peptide through a matrix metalloprotease 2 (MMP-2) sensitive linker could efficiently and selectively decorate tumor cells with OVA peptides in vivo. Then, a POx-based nanovaccine containing OVA257-264 peptides to elicit OVA-specific T cell responses was designed. In combination with this hit-and-run vaccine system, an effective vaccine therapy was demonstrated across tumor types even without OVA antigen expression. This approach provides a promising and uniform vaccine strategy against tumors with a low tumor mutation burden.

Abstract
A qualified delivery system is crucial for the successful application of messenger RNA (mRNA) technology. While lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are currently the predominant platform for mRNA delivery, they encounter challenges such as high inflammation and difficulties in targeting non-liver tissues. Polymers offer a promising delivery solution, albeit with limitations including low transfection efficiency and potential high toxicity. Herein, we present a poly(L-glutamic acid)-based phosphatidyl polymeric carrier (PLG-PPs) for mRNA delivery that combines the dual advantages of phospholipids and polymers. The PLGs grafted with epoxy groups were firstly modified with different amines and then with alkylated dioxaphospholane oxides, which provided a library of PLG polymers grafted with various phosphatidyl groups. In vitro studies proved that PLG-PPs/mRNA polyplexes exhibited a significant increase in mRNA expression, peaking 14 716 times compared to their non-phosphatidyl parent polymer. Impressively, the subset PA8-PL3 not only facilitated efficient mRNA transfection but also selectively delivered mRNA to the spleen instead of the liver (resulting in 69.73% protein expression in the spleen) once intravenously administered. This type of phosphatidyl PLG polymer library provides a novel approach to the construction of mRNA delivery systems especially for spleen-targeted mRNA therapeutic delivery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Envonalkib (TQ-B3139) is a novel, potent anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. This phase I mass balance study investigated the pharmacokinetics, metabolism, and excretion of 14C-radiolabeled envonalkib in healthy Chinese male subjects. METHODS A single oral dose of 600 mg (150 µCi) [14C]envonalkib was administered to healthy male subjects under fasted state. Samples of blood, urine and feces were collected for quantitative determination of total radioactivity and unchanged envonalkib, and the metabolites identification. RESULTS After dosing, the median Tmax of radioactivity was 4 h and the mean t1/2 was 65.2 h in plasma. The exposure of total radioactivity was much higher than that of unchanged envonalkib in plasma. The mean total recovery of the radiolabeled dose was 93.93% over 504 h post-dose, with 15.23% in urine and 78.71% in feces. Envonalkib underwent extensive metabolism and a total of 15 metabolites were identified in plasma, urine, and feces. Unchanged envonalkib and its major metabolite M315 were the main components in plasma, accounting for 20.37% and 33.33% of total plasma radioactivity. In urine, O-dealkylation metabolite M315 was the major component accounted for 7.98% of dose. In feces, 16.01% of dose was excreted as cysteine conjugate M434-1. Envonalkib was well tolerated and there were no serious adverse events observed in the study. CONCLUSION Envonalkib was extensively metabolized prior to excretion and eliminated primarily as metabolites via feces.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between portal vein thrombosis and rebleeding after non-urgent endoscopic treatment of esophagogastric varices. Methods: The cirrhotic patients with esophagogastric varices diagnosed in the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to March 2023 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into thrombotic group and non-thrombotic group according to the presence or absence of portal vein thrombosis. The failure rate of endoscopic treatment and rebleeding rate in different periods were compared between the two groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to select the best cutoff value of gastric varicose diameter that affected total rebleeding during follow-up in both groups. The influencing factors of rebleeding within 12 and 36 months in both groups were analyzed, and the influencing factors of rebleeding within 36 months in thrombus group were further analyzed. Results: A total of 106 patients were enrolled, including 53 patients in the thrombotic group [male 37, female 16, aged 18-78 (54±13) years] and 53 patients in the non-thrombotic group [male 37, female 16, aged 27-83 (55±12) years]. The follow-up time of the two groups were (20±15) and (25±15) months, respectively. The total rebleeding rate in the thrombotic group was higher than that in the non-thrombotic group [30.2% (16/53) vs 13.2% (7/53), P˂0.05]. The rebleeding rates within 6, 12, 24 and 36 months in the thrombotic group were higher than those in the non-thrombotic group [18.9% (10/53) vs 5.7% (3/53), 18.9% (10/53) vs 5.7% (3/53), 28.3% (15/53) vs 9.4% (5/53), 30.2% (16/53) vs 11.3% (6/53), all P˂0.05]. The best cut-off value of the diameter of gastric varices that affects the total rebleeding in the two groups was 10.4 mm (10 mm was selected as the best cut-off value for the convenience of practical clinical application). Hemoglobin ˂ 85 g/L (HR=0.202, 95%CI: 0.043-0.953, P=0.043), 10 mm ˂ the diameter of GV ≤ 15 mm (HR=5.321, 95%CI: 1.161-24.390, P=0.031) and endoscopic variceal ligation combined with endoscopic tissue adhesive injection (EVL+ETAI) (HR=7.172, 95%CI: 1.910-26.930, P=0.004) were the risk factors for the first gastroesophageal variceal rebleeding within 12 months after non-urgent endoscopic treatment. EVL+ETAI (HR=3.811, 95%CI: 1.441-10.084, P=0.007) and portal vein thrombosis (HR=4.026, 95%CI: 1.483-10.932, P=0.006) were the risk factors for the first gastroesophageal variceal rebleeding within 36 months after non-urgent endoscopic treatment. The study found that, 10 mm ˂ the diameter of GV ≤ 15 mm (HR=7.503, 95%CI: 1.568-35.890, P=0.012) was the risk factor for rebleeding within 36 months in the thrombotic group. Conclusion: Portal vein thrombosis is a risk factor for rebleeding after non-urgent endoscopic treatment of esophagogastric varices.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of partially replacing soybean meal (SBM) with algal sources on in vitro ruminal fermentation. Using 6 fermenters in a 3 × 3 replicated Latin square with 3 periods of 10 d each, we tested 3 treatments: a control diet (CRT) with SBM at 17.8% of the diet dry matter (DM); and 50% SBM biomass replacement with either Chlorella pyrenoidosa (CHL); or Spirulina platensis (SPI). The basal diet was formulated to meet the requirements of a 680-kg Holstein dairy cow producing 45 kg/d of milk with 3.5% fat and 3% protein. All diets had a similar nutritional composition (16.0% CP; 34.9% NDF; 31.0% starch, DM basis) and fermenters were provided with 106 g DM/d split into 2 portions. After 7 d of adaptation, samples were collected for 3 d of each period for analyses of ruminal fermentation at 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 h after morning feeding for evaluation of the ruminal fermentation kinetics. For the evaluation of the daily production of total metabolites and for the evaluation of nutrient degradability, samples from the effluent containers were collected daily. Statistical analysis was performed with the MIXED procedure of SAS with treatment, time, and their interactions considered as fixed effects; day, square, and fermenter were considered as random effects. Orthogonal contrasts (CRT vs. algae; and CHL vs. SPI) were used to depict the treatment effect, and significance was declared when P ≤ 0.05. Fermenters that received algae-based diets had a greater propionate molar concentration and molar proportion when compared with the fermenters fed CRT diets. In addition, those algae-fed fermenters had lower branched short-chain fatty acids (BSCFA) and isoacids (IA), which are biomarkers of ruminal protein degradation, along with lower ammonia (NH3-N) concentration and greater nonammonia nitrogen (NAN). When contrasting with fermenters fed SPI-diets, fermenters fed based CHL-diets had a lower molar concentration of BSCFA and IA, along with lower NH3-N concentration and flow, and greater NAN, bacterial nitrogen flow, and efficiency of nitrogen utilization. Those results indicate that CHL protein may be more resistant to ruminal degradation, which would increase efficiency of nitrogen utilization. In summary, partially replacing SBM with algae biomass, especially with CHL, is a promising strategy to improve the efficiency of nitrogen utilization, due to the fact that fermenters fed CHL-based diets resulted in a reduction in BSCFA and IA, which are markers of protein degradation, and it would improve the efficiency of nitrogen utilization. However, further validation using in vivo models are required.

Abstract
Virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines had shown great potential during the COVID-19 pandemic, and was thought to be the next generation of antiviral vaccine technology due to viromimetic structures. However, the time-consuming and complicated processes in establishing a current recombinant-protein-based VLP vaccine has limited its quick launch to the out-bursting pandemic. To simplify and optimize VLP vaccine design, we herein report a kind of viromimetic polymer nanoparticle vaccine (VPNVax), with subunit receptor-binding domain (RBD) proteins conjugated to the surface of polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid (PEG-b-PLA) nanoparticles for vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. The preparation of VPNVax based on synthetic polymer particle and chemical post-conjugation makes it possible to rapidly replace the antigens and construct matched vaccines at the emergence of different viruses. Using this modular preparation system, we identified that VPNVax with surface protein coverage of 20%-25% had the best immunostimulatory activity, which could keep high levels of specific antibody titers over 5 months and induce virus neutralizing activity when combined with an aluminum adjuvant. Moreover, the polymer nano-vectors could be armed with more immune-adjuvant functions by loading immunostimulant agents or chemical chirality design. This VPNVax platform provides a novel kind of rapidly producing and efficient vaccine against different variants of SARS-CoV-2 as well as other viral pandemics.

Abstract
Over the past decade, extreme temperature events have become more frequent and longer in duration. Previous studies on the association between extreme cold events (ECEs) and congenital heart defects (CHDs) are few and inconsistent. We conducted a national multicenter study in 1313 hospitals in 26 provinces in China and collected a total of 14 808 high CHD-risk participants from 2013 to 2021. We evaluated the ECEs experienced by each pregnant women during the embryonic period (3-8 weeks). The results indicated that ECEs experienced by pregnant women during the embryonic period were associated with the development of fetal CHD and were more strongly associated with some specific fetal CHD subtypes, such as pulmonary stenosis, pulmonary atresia, and tetralogy of Fallot. Of the CHD burden, 2.21% (95% CI: 1.43, 2.99%)-2.40% (95% CI: 1.26, 3.55%) of fetal CHD cases were attributable to ECEs during the embryonic period. Our findings emphasize the need to pay more attention to pregnant women whose embryonic period falls during the cold season to reduce cold spell detriments to newborns.

Abstract
Nanoplastics have been demonstrated to be reproductively toxic to mammals. However, the mechanisms of nanoplastics induce reproductive damage in mammals, especially their effects on spermatogenesis, remain elusive. Herein, we explored the effects and underlying mechanisms of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) on the testicular development of male mice after 28 days of exposure, representing the first systematic study of PS-NPs-induced male reproductive injury by integrating histomorphology, transcriptomics and proteomics. PS-NPs decreased the sperm concentration, sperm motility, and disrupted the structure of the seminiferous tubules of the mice. Besides, transcriptome and proteome analyses revealed that PS-NPs disrupted spermatogenesis by inhibiting the transcription of Prm3/Tnp1/Aurkc/Mea1/Mettl14 and the expression of Pmfbp1/Ggn/Fsip2. Furthermore, PS-NPs enabled Hsd3b5 protein expression to reduce dihydrotestosterone levels, and affected sperm flagellar assembly by decreasing the expression of Dnah8/Tekt5/Rsph6a. Moreover, PS-NPs induced testicular cell apoptosis by up-regulating the expression of cathepsins (B/F/H). In addition, PS-NPs destroyed tight junctions by reducing the expression of the Claudin family (3/5/15). In conclusion, PS-NPs can disrupt spermatogenesis by altering the expression patterns of transcriptome and proteome, inducing testicular cell apoptosis and destroying tight junctions.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, and surgical resection is the first choice for its treatment. With the development of operation techniques, surgical treatment for breast cancer is evolving toward minimally invasive and breast-conserving approaches. However, breast-conserving surgery is prone to an increased risk of cancer recurrence and is becoming a key challenge that needs to be solved. In this study, we introduce a one-shot injectable nano-in-gel vaccine (NIGel-Vax) for postoperative breast cancer therapy. The NIGel-Vax was constructed by mixing protein antigens with PEI-4BImi-Man adjuvant and then encapsulated in a hydrogel made with oxidized dextran (ODEX) and 4-arm PEG-ONH2. Using 4T1 tumor-extracted proteins as antigen, the NIGel-Vax achieved a 92% tumor suppression rate and a 33% cure rate as a postoperative therapy in the 4T1 tumor model. Using the tumor-associated antigen trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2) protein as the antigen, NIGel-Vax achieved a 96% tumor suppression rate and a 50% cure rate in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) models. This design provides an encouraging approach for breast cancer postoperative management.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the possible anti-atherosclerotic mechanisms of glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor canagliflozin. Methods: ApoE-/-mice fed on Western diet were randomly assigned into the model group (n=10) and the canagliflozin group (n=10). C57BL/6J mice fed on normal diet were chosen as the control group (n=10). Mice in the canagliflozin group were gavaged with canagliflozin for 14 weeks. The presence and severity of atherosclerosis were evaluated with HE and oil red O stainings in aortic root section slices. PCR assay was performed to determine the mRNA expression levels of nitric oxide synthase. Hepatic transcriptome analysis and hepatic amino acid detection were conducted using RNA-seq and targeted LC-MS, respectively. Results: HE staining and oil red O staining of the aortic root showed that AS models were successfully established in ApoE-/-mice fed on Western diet for 14 weeks. Canagliflozin alleviated the severity of atherosclerosis in pathology. Hepatic transcriptome analysis indicated that canagliflozin impacted on amino acid metabolism, especially arginine synthesis in ApoE-/-mice. Targeted metabolomics analysis of amino acids showed that canagliflozin reduced hepatic levels of L-serine, L-aspartic acid, tyrosine, L-hydroxyproline, and L-citrulline, but raised the hepatic level of L-arginine. Compared to the model group, the canagliflozin group exhibited higher serum arginine and nitric oxide levels as well as elevated nitric oxide mRNA expression in aortic tissues (P<0.05). Conclusion: Canagliflozin regulated the amino acid metabolism, reduced the levels of glucogenic amino acids,and promoted the synthesis of arginine in atherosclerotic mice.

Abstract
Despite recent innovations in imaging and genomic screening promotes advance in diagnosis and treatment of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), there remains high mortality of LUAD and insufficient understanding of LUAD biology. Our previous study performed an integrative multi-omic analysis of LUAD, filling the gap between genomic alterations and their biological proteome effects. However, more detailed molecular characterization and biomarker resources at proteome level still need to be uncovered. In this study, a quantitative proteomic experiment of patient-derived benign lung disease samples was carried out. After that, we integrated the proteomic data with previous dataset of 103 paired LUAD samples. We depicted the proteomic differences between non-cancerous and tumor samples and among diverse pathological subtypes. We also found that up-regulated mitophagy was a significant characteristic of early-stage LUAD. Additionally, our integrative analysis filtered out 75 potential prognostic biomarkers and validated two of them in an independent LUAD serum cohort. This study provided insights for improved understanding proteome abnormalities of LUAD and the novel prognostic biomarker discovery offered an opportunity for LUAD precise management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iruplinalkib is a novel anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor for the treatment of ALK-positive crizotinib-resistant NSCLC. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A single oral dose of 120 mg/3.7 MBq [14C]iruplinalkib was administered to healthy subjects. Blood, urine and fecal samples were collected and analyzed for iruplinalkib and its metabolites. The safety of iruplinalkib was also assessed. RESULTS Iruplinalkib was absorbed quickly and eliminated slowly from plasma, with a Tmax of 1.5 h and t1/2 of 28.6 h. About 88.85% of iruplinalkib was excreted at 312 h, including 20.23% in urine and 68.63% in feces. Seventeen metabolites of iruplinalkib were identified, and M3b (demethylation), M7 (cysteine conjugation), M11 (oxidative dehydrogenation and cysteine conjugation of M3b) and M12 (oxidative dehydrogenation and cysteine conjugation) were considered the prominent metabolites in humans. Iruplinalkib-related compounds were found to be covalently bound to proteins, accounting for 7.70% in plasma and 17.96% in feces, which suggested chemically reactive metabolites were formed. There were no serious adverse events observed in the study. CONCLUSIONS Iruplinalkib was widely metabolized and excreted mainly through feces in humans. Unchanged iruplinalkib, cysteine conjugates and covalent protein binding products were the main drug-related compounds in circulation. Iruplinalkib was well tolerated at the study dose. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: Anonymized).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy with high morbidity and mortality. To improve CMC prognosis, research must identify safe and effective natural drugs that improve the proliferation, migration, and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) processes of CRC. The purpose of this paper is to understand how cichoric acid (CA) impacts CRC proliferation, metastasis, and EMT of CRC by adjusting the Ras homolog family member A (RhoA)/RHO-associated coiled coil protein kinase (ROCK) pathway. METHODS Human Colon Cancer Cells (HCT116) cells were randomly divided into Control (blank medium treatment), low concentration CA (CA-L), medium concentration CA (CA-M), high concentration CA (CA-H), and high-concentration CA+RhoA activator U46619 (CA-H+U46619) groups. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and apoptosis were evaluated with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression of RhoA, ROCK, and EMT-associated proteins were detected by Western Blot. The CRC transplanted tumor model of nude mice was constructed, and the mice were grouped into low-dose CA (CA-Low, 15 mg/kg CA), high-dose CA (CA-High, 30 mg/kg CA), high-dose CA+RhoA activator U46619 (CA-High+U46619, 30 mg/kg CA+10 mM U46619), and Model groups at random, with 12 mice in each group. Tumor volume, mass, and inhibition rate were measured and calculated, and the pathological changes of tumor in nude mice were detected by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. RESULTS Compared with Control, the optical density of cells at 450 nm (OD450) value (48 h, 72 h), cell migration number, cell invasion number, RhoA, ROCK1, N-cadherin, vimentin protein expression levels of HCT116 cells were reduced in CA-M and CA-H groups; however, E-cadherin level and apoptosis rate were increased (p < 0.05). In the CA-High group, we observed a significant decrease (p < 0.05) in both tumor volume and mass in nude mice. Additionally, the tumor tissue cells exhibited better organization, reduced size, reduced tumor and vascular tissue hyperplasia, and decreased infiltration of inflammatory cells. U46619 decreased the retardation of CA on the proliferation, EMT, and migration of CRC tumor cells as well as the growth of transplanted CRC tumors in nude mice. CONCLUSIONS CA may reduce CRC migration, proliferation, and EMT by inhibiting the activation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although some well-established oncogenes are involved in cancer initiation and progression such as prostate cancer (PCa), the long tail of cancer genes remains to be defined. Goosecoid (GSC) has been implicated in cancer development. However, the comprehensive biological role of GSC in pan-cancer, specifically in PCa, remains unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of GSC in PCa development. METHODS We performed a systematic bioinformatics exploration of GSC using datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas, Genotype-Tissue Expression, Gene Expression Omnibus, German Cancer Research Center, and our in-house cohorts. First, we evaluated the expression of GSC and its association with patient prognosis, and identified GSC-relevant genetic alterations in cancers. Further, we focused on the clinical characterization and prognostic analysis of GSC in PCa. To understand the transcriptional regulation of GSC by E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1), we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Functional experiments were conducted to validate the effect of GSC on the tumor cellular phenotype and sensitivity to trametinib. RESULTS GSC expression was elevated in various tumors and significantly correlated with patient prognosis. The alterations of GSC contribute to the progression of various tumors especially in PCa. Patients with PCa and high GSC expression exhibited worse progression-free survival and biochemical recurrence outcomes. Further, GSC upregulation in patients with PCa was mostly accompanied with higher Gleason score, advanced tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, and elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Mechanistically, the transcription factor, E2F1, stimulates GSC by binding to its promoter region. Detailed experiments further demonstrated that GSC acted as an oncogene and influenced the response of PCa cells to trametinib treatment. CONCLUSIONS GSC was highly overexpressed and strongly correlated with patient prognosis in PCa. We found that GSC, regulated by E2F1, acted as an oncogene and impeded the therapeutic efficacy of trametinib in PCa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE HSK21542, a synthetic short-chain polypeptide, is a selective peripheral kappa opioid receptor (KOR) agonist. In this single-centre, non-randomized, open-label study, the pharmacokinetics, mass balance, metabolism and excretion of HSK21542 were investigated. METHODS A single intravenous dose of 2 μg/0.212 μCi/kg [14C]HSK21542 was administered to six healthy male subjects. Samples of blood, urine and faeces were collected for quantitative determination of total radioactivity and unchanged HSK21542, and identification of metabolites. RESULTS The mean total recovery was 81.89% of the radiolabelled dose over 240 h post-dose, with 35.60% and 46.30% excreted in faeces and urine, respectively. The mean maximum concentration (Cmax), the half-life (t1/2) and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-t) of total radioactivity (TRA) in plasma were 20.4 ±4.16 ng Eq./g, 1.93 ± 0.322 h and 21.8 ± 2.93 h·ng Eq./g, respectively, while the Cmax, t1/2 and the AUC0-t of unchanged HSK21542 were 18.3 ± 3.36 ng/mL, 1.66 ± 0.185 h and 18.4 ± 2.24 h·ng/mL, respectively. The blood-to-plasma ratios of TRA at several times ranged from 0.46 to 0.54. [14C]HSK21542 was detected as the main circulating substance in plasma, accounting for 92.17% of the AUC of TRA. The unchanged parent compound was the only major radioactive chemical in urine (100.00% of TRA) and faeces (93.53% of TRA). Metabolites were very minor components. CONCLUSIONS HSK21542 was barely metabolized in vivo and mainly excreted with unchanged HSK21542 as its main circulating component in plasma. It was speculated that renal excretion was the principal excretion pathway, and faecal excretion was the secondary pathway. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05835934.

Abstract
To prevent the exploitation of wild agarwood, the development of artificial agarwood through fungal inoculation is a promising method, but finding species that produce efficient high-quality agarwood remains difficult. In this study, a fungal inducer was prepared using wild agarwood containing fungi and high-throughput sequencing was performed to determine its species makeup. Subsequently, it was used to inoculate Aquilaria sinensis(Lour.) Spreng. The induced agarwood (IA), wild agarwood (WA), and nonresinous whitewood (WW) were analyzed for the extract content. In addition, liquid and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine the chemical composition of the samples. The results were used to evaluate the quality of the IA. Mortierella humilisLinnem. ex W.Gams, Oidiodendron maius(Barron), and Tolypocladium album(W. Gams) Quandt, Kepler, and Spatafora were the fungal inducers that were discovered to produce agarwood. The extracts from the IA and WA contained 64 and 69 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones, respectively, while there were none in the WW. Furthermore, 20 (relative content 36.19%) and 27 (relative content 54.92%) sesquiterpenes were identified in the essential oils of the IA and WA, respectively, and none were identified in the WW. The fungal inducer that was prepared from the WA effectively improves the quality of the agarwood, which is extremely similar to that of the WA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical efficacy of intercondylar fossa plasty in preventing intercondylar fossa impingement syndrome after high tibial osteotomy. METHODS From August 2018 to August 2020, 84 patients with inverted knee osteoarthritis were treated by arthroscopy combined with high tibial osteotomy, and were divided into two groups with 42 cases in each group according to different surgical methods. In the intercondylar fossa plasty group, there were 13 males and 29 females, age ranged from 52 to 67 years old with an average of(58.27±4.32) years old, and arthroscopic intercondylar fossa plasty was performed first, and then high tibial osteotomy. In the arthroscopic cleansing group, 16 males and 26 females, age ranged from 50 to 71 years old with an average of (59.02±5.14) years old, underwent arthroscopic cleansing and then high tibial osteotomy. Postoperative treatment was evaluated using visual analogue scale(VAS), hospital for special surgery (HSS) score for the knee, and the occurrence of intercondylar percussa impingement. RESULTS All 84 patients were followed up, the duration ranged from 12 to 18 months with an average of (14.1±1.6) months. The VAS and HSS score of knee joint at 6, 12 and 18 months after surgery were significantly improved compared with preoperative period, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05), but the incidence of intercondylar fossa index and intercondylar fossa impact between the two groups was significantly compared 18 months after surgery (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Intercondylar fossa plasty can effectively prevent the incidence of intercondylar fossa impact after high tibial osteotomy, and has a more significant effect on postoperative knee pain and function improvement.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a growing source of global mortality and threatens global control of tuberculosis (TB) disease. The diarylquinoline bedaquiline (BDQ) recently emerged as a highly efficacious drug against MDR-TB, defined as resistance to the first-line drugs isoniazid (INH) and rifampin. INH resistance is primarily caused by loss-of-function mutations in the catalase KatG, but mechanisms underlying BDQ's efficacy against MDR-TB remain unknown. Here we employ a systems biology approach to investigate BDQ hyper-susceptibility in INH-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis . We found hyper-susceptibility to BDQ in INH-resistant cells is due to several physiological changes induced by KatG deficiency, including increased susceptibility to reactive oxygen species and DNA damage, remodeling of transcriptional programs, and metabolic repression of folate biosynthesis. We demonstrate BDQ hyper-susceptibility is common in INH-resistant clinical isolates. Collectively, these results highlight how altered bacterial physiology can impact drug efficacy in drug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Survival rates for women with metastatic cervical cancer (CC) are low, with limited management options. Radiation therapy (RT) for metastatic disease has led to prolonged survival in other malignancies, however, the data are scarce in CC. Herein, we evaluated the effect of RT for metastatic CC. MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 58 patients with metastatic CC between September 2019 and January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were treated with platinum-based chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy or immunotherapy followed with or without RT (NRT). The recent efficacy, survival status and prognostic factors were analyzed statistically. RESULTS Objective response rate (ORR) was 63.6% with one complete and twenty partial responses in RT group (n = 33) and 40.0% with two complete and eight partial responses in NRT group (n = 25), respectively (p = 0.074). Disease control rate (DCR) of the RT and NRT groups were 79.4% vs 80.0%, respectively (p = 0.861). Median follow-up time was 17 months (3-39months). In RT group, 11(33.3%) patients experienced local regional or distant failure and 9 (27.3%) patients were dead. In NRT group, 15(60%) patients had progression and 8 (32%) patients dead. There was no significant difference between the two groups in overall survival (OS); however, RT group displayed superior progression-free survival (PFS) (1-year OS: 72.7% vs. 68.0%, p = 0.460; 1-year PFS: 66.7% vs. 40.0%, p = 0.039). The multivariate analysis showed that RT, immunotherapy, lymph node metastasis only relevant predictor of superior PFS but not OS. In subgroup analysis, patients treated with RT appeared to have a better PFS in some specific cohorts, such as age>45 years (72.0% vs 36.4% P = 0.015), squamous carcinoma histology (71.0% vs 40.9% P = 0.017), metastatic at diagnosis (75.0% vs 47.6% P = 0.012), non-targeted therapy (72.4% vs 43.8% P = 0.040). No significant increase in treatment-related toxicity was observed in the RT group compared with the NRT group. CONCLUSION RT provided superior PFS in metastatic CC patients compared to NRT, and well tolerated. Moreover, RT, immunotherapy, lymph node metastasis only were independent significant prognostic factors for PFS. Subgroup analysis showed that combination of RT and chemotherapy obtained favorable PFS in metastatic CC patients with age>45 years, squamous carcinoma histology, metastatic at diagnosis, non-targeted therapy. Studies with a larger sample size and longer follow-up are warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly lethal human malignance. Due to unobvious symptoms at early stage, most of the patients with PC are diagnosed at late stages and lose the chance of surgical resection. Furthermore, PC patients are resistant to chemoradiotherapy and therefore show a dismal survival. Hyperthermia is commonly used as a sensitizer of chemotherapy or radiotherapy for the clinical treatment of human cancers. Our study aimed to investigate whether hyperthermia can improve the radiosensitivity of PC cells and uncover the involved mechanisms. MATERIALS/METHODS PC cells BxPC3, CFPAC-1 and PANC1 were heated to 43 ℃ 1 h before exposure to ionizing irradiation (IR). The radiosensitivity of PC cells were detected in vitro by colony formation assay, immunofluence analysis and western blotting. The mechanisms studies have been conducted using qRT-PCR analysis, cDNA/siRNA transfection and comet assay. RESULTS Hyperthermia significantly enhanced the radiosensitivity of PC cells by decreasing their colony formation and increasing DNA damage following IR. By qRT-PCR analysis of Wnt genes expressions, we found Wnt2B was significantly down-regulated in PC-3 cells which were treated with the combination of hyperthermia and IR compared with hyperthermia or IR alone. Functional assays showed that the expression level of Wnt2B was inversely associated with the radiosensitivity of PC-3 cells. Furthermore, we found hyperthermia inhibited the expression of DNA repair proteins such as p-BRCA1 and p-MRE11 in PC cells following IR CONCLUSION: Hyperthermia can significantly enhance the radiosensitivity of PC cells in a Wnt2B signaling-dependent manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence remains limited on the association between maternal ozone (O3) exposure and congenital heart defects (CHDs) in offspring, and few studies have investigated the interaction and modification of paternal smoking on this association. METHODS Using a sample including pregnant women at high risk of fetal CHD (with metabolic disease, first-trimester viral infection, family history of CHD, etc.) from a maternal-fetal medicine study covering 1313 referral hospitals in China during 2013-2021, we examined the associations between maternal O3 exposure during 3-8 weeks of gestational age and fetal CHD in offspring and investigated the interaction and modification of paternal smoking on this association. CHD was diagnosed by fetal echocardiograms, maximum daily 8-hour average O3 exposure data at a 10 km × 10 km spatial resolution came from the Tracking Air Pollution in China dataset, and paternal smoking was collected using questionnaires. Logistic regression models were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Among 27,834 pregnant women at high risk of fetal CHD, 17.4% of fetuses were diagnosed with CHD. Each 10 μg/m3 increase in maternal O3 exposure was associated with a 17% increased risk of CHD in offspring (OR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.14-1.20). Compared with paternal nonsmoking and maternal low O3 exposure, the ORs (95% CI) of CHD for smoking and low O3 exposure, nonsmoking and high O3 exposure, and smoking and high O3 exposure were 1.25 (1.08-1.45), 1.81 (1.56-2.08), and 2.23 (1.84-2.71), respectively. Paternal smoking cessation seemingly mitigated the increased risk of CHD. CONCLUSIONS Maternal O3 exposure and paternal smoking were interactively associated with an increased risk of fetal CHD in offspring, which calls for effective measures to decrease maternal exposure to O3 pollution and secondhand smoke for CHD prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is associated with early recurrence and a poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Studies have shown that EMT-related genes play an important regulatory role in tumor invasion, metastasis, and drug resistance, but the biological functions of EMT-related genes in ccRCC have not been specifically described. METHODS The mRNA and clinicopathological data of 532 ccRCC and 72 normal samples were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas as a training set. The gene expression matrix and survival data of 91 and 101 ccRCC samples were obtained from the International Cancer Genome Consortium and the ArrayExpress databases as validation sets, respectively. Univariate Cox analysis was used to identify and cluster prognostic genes, and multivariate Cox was performed to construct a prognostic signature. Moreover, CIBERSORT and CellMiner were used to assess immune cell infiltration and prognostic gene-drug sensitivity of the signature, respectively. Most importantly, we performed detailed experiments to verify the oncogenic function of a significant gene, OLFML2B, in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS We constructed a prognostic signature including seven genes and divided patients into high-risk and low-risk groups. The prognosis of the high-risk group was significantly worse than that of the low-risk group through Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Interestingly, significant differences were observed in clinical characteristics and immune cell infiltration between the two groups. In addition, a significant correlation was found between the expression of prognostic genes and the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutics. Most importantly, OLFML2B was proved to contribute to the proliferation and metastasis of ccRCC through detailed functional experiments in vitro and in vivo, and its prognostic efficacy for ccRCC patients was affirmed. CONCLUSION We identified the prognostic signature of seven genes based on EMT-related genes as prognostic biomarkers for ccRCC. Besides, OLFML2B was validated as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target for ccRCC by our detailed experiments.

Abstract
The Warburg effect-related metabolic dysfunction of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle has emerged as a hallmark of various solid tumors, particularly renal cell carcinoma (RCC). RCC is characterized by high immune infiltration and thus recommended for immunotherapeutic interventions at an advanced stage in clinical guidelines. Nevertheless, limited benefits of immunotherapy have prompted investigations into underlying mechanisms, leading to the proposal of metabolic dysregulation-induced immunoevasion as a crucial contributor. In this study, a significant decrease is found in the abundance of alpha-ketoglutarate (αKG), a crucial intermediate metabolite in the TCA cycle, which is correlated with higher grades and a worse prognosis in clinical RCC samples. Elevated levels of αKG promote major histocompatibility complex-I (MHC-I) antigen processing and presentation, as well as the expression of β2-microglobulin (B2M). While αKG modulates broad-spectrum demethylation activities of histone, the transcriptional upregulation of B2M is dependent on the demethylation of H3K4me1 in its promoter region. Furthermore, the combination of αKG supplementation and PD-1 blockade leads to improved therapeutic efficacy and prolongs survival in murine models when compared to monotherapy. Overall, the findings elucidate the mechanisms of immune evasion in anti-tumor immunotherapies and suggest a potential combinatorial treatment strategy in RCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Evidence about the association between vegetable consumption and cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) cluster among children and adolescents was inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of CMRFs and CMRFs cluster, and to evaluate their associations with vegetable consumption. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 14,061 participants aged 6-19 years were recruited from 7 provinces of China. A standard physical examination, including height, weight and blood pressure, was conducted. Information regarding CMRFs was obtained through anthropometric measurements and blood sample testing, while weekly frequency and daily servings of vegetable consumption data collected by questionnaires. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the odds ratios (OR) for associations between CMRFs, CMRFs cluster and vegetable consumption. The prevalence of no CMRFs cluster among children and adolescents was 26.4%. Participants whose daily vegetable consumption was 0.75-1.5 and ≥1.5 servings showed a lower risk of high blood pressure (HBP), high total cholesterol (TC), high triglyceride (TG), and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) compared to those with daily vegetable consumption of <0.75 servings. Besides, higher average daily vegetable consumption was strongly associated with lower risks of CMRFs cluster. Stratified analyses showed that the protective effects of more vegetable intake on CMRFs cluster were profounder in boys and young adolescents. CONCLUSION More vegetable intake was associated with lower risks of CMRFs cluster in Chinese children and adolescents aged 6-19 years, which further highlighted the significance of vegetable consumption to improve the cardiometabolic risk status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although non-communicable diseases (NCDs) remain the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide, little comprehensive or recent evidence of the burden of NCDs among adolescents and young adults in the South-East Asia and Western Pacific regions is available. We aimed to report population shifts in people aged 10-24 years and their NCD burden from 1990 to 2019 using data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019. METHODS We retrieved data from GBD 2019 for people aged 10-24 years in the South-East Asia and Western Pacific regions from 1990 to 2019. We presented population shifts and analysed deaths, years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) for NCDs. We also quantified the associations of deaths and DALYs with the Socio-demographic Index (SDI) and Universal Health Coverage (UHC) effective coverage index using Spearman correlation and linear regression analyses. Percentages are reported to 1 decimal place and rates are reported to 2 decimal places. FINDINGS In 2019, there were 559·2 million young people aged 10-24 years in the South-East Asia region and 335·0 million in the Western Pacific region; India and China remained the countries with greatest number of this age group. In 1990-2019, India had an absolute increase of 139·4 million adolescents, while China had a decrease of 134·3 million. In 2019, NCDs accounted for 27·3% (95% uncertainty interval 25·1 to 29·2) and 34·6% (33·5 to 36·1) of total deaths, and 49·8% (45·3 to 54·4) and 65·1% (60·6 to 69·3) of total DALYs in the South-East Asia and the Western Pacific regions, respectively. Neoplasms, cardiovascular diseases, and mental disorders were the leading causes of NCD burden in 42 countries. Kiribati had the highest rates of deaths (62·82 [50·77 to 76·11] per 100 000 population), YLLs (4364·73 [3545·04 to 5275·63] per 100 000 population), and DALYs (9368·73 [7713·65 to 11340·99] per 100 000 population) for NCDs, whereas Australia (6976·51 [5044·46 to 9190·01] per 100 000 population) and New Zealand (6716·81 [4827·25 to 8827·69] per 100 000 population) had the largest rates of YLDs due to NCDs. From 1990 to 2019 across both regions, the rate of death due to NCDs declined by over a third (-32·8% [-41·1 to -22·9] in the South-East Asia region and -40·0% [-48·6 to -30·4] in the Western Pacific region), and DALYs decreased by about 12% (-12·0% [-16·8 to -7·7] in the South-East Asia region and -12·8% [-17·7 to -8·7] in the Western Pacific region), whereas the proportion of NCD burden relative to all-cause burden increased (45·7% [32·9 to 61·7] for deaths and 41·2% [35·2 to 48·8] for DALYs in the South-East Asia region; 11·8% [7·1 to 21·5] for deaths and 18·2% [14·6 to 22·0] for DALYs in the Western Pacific region). The rate of deaths and DALYs due to NCDs decreased monotonically alongside increases in SDI (rs=-0·57 [95% CI -0·81 to -0·32] for deaths and rs=-0·30 [-0·61 to 0·03] for DALYs). The rate of deaths (rs=-0·89 [95% CI -0·97 to -0·80]) and DALYs (rs=-0·67 [-0·93 to -0·41]) due to NCDs also decreased alongside increases in the UHC effective coverage index. INTERPRETATION Specific preventive and health service measures are needed for adolescents and young adults in countries with different levels of socioeconomic development to reduce the burden from NCDs.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic formate perovskites, AB(HCOO)3, are a large family of compounds that exhibit a variety of phase transitions and diverse properties, such as (anti)ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity, (anti)ferromagnetism, and multiferroism. While many properties of these materials have already been characterized, we are not aware of any study that focuses on the comprehensive property assessment of a large number of formate perovskites. A comparison of the properties of materials within the family is challenging due to systematic errors attributed to different techniques or the lack of data. For example, complete piezoelectric, dielectric, and elastic tensors are not available. In this work, we utilize first-principles density functional theory based simulations to overcome these challenges and to report structural, mechanical, dielectric, piezoelectric, and ferroelectric properties of 29 formate perovskites. We find that these materials exhibit elastic stiffness in the range 0.5-127.0 GPa; highly anisotropic linear compressibility, including zero and even negative values; dielectric constants in the range 0.1-102.1; highly anisotropic piezoelectric response with the longitudinal values in the range 1.18-21.12 pC/N; and spontaneous polarizations in the range 0.2-7.8 μC/cm2. Furthermore, we propose and computationally characterize a few formate perovskites that have not been reported yet.

Abstract
The low-burden Diet Quality Questionnaire (DQQ) is a standardized tool to collect indicators of dietary adequacy as well as indicators of the protection of health against noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) within the framework of the global diet quality project. Stroke is the leading cause of the cardiovascular disease burden in China, with poor diet being one of the major risk factors. In this study, we aimed to understand the association of several indicators of diet quality derived from the DQQ with stroke among Chinese adults and, further, to examine the gender differences using the 2011 wave of the China Health and Nutrition Survey. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the associations of the NCD-Protect score, NCD-Risk score, and global dietary recommendations score (GDR) score with stroke. There were 192 stroke cases (121 in men and 71 in women) of 12,051 adults. The continuous NCD-Risk score was positively associated with stroke in women (odds ratio (OR) = 1.52, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.13-2.06). When compared with women with an NCD-Risk score of 0 points, those with an NCD-Risk score ≥2 points had a higher risk of stroke (OR = 2.71, 95% CI: 1.35-5.43). In addition, compared with women with a GDR score ≤0, those with a GDR score ≥2 points had lower odds of stroke (OR = 0.42, 95% CI: 0.22-0.77). Poor diet quality, as reflected by the NCD-Risk score, was associated with an increased risk of stroke in Chinese women, but not in men. Our findings provided evidence that an optimal diet quality could be conducive to preventing stroke for Chinese women and suggested a diverse diet characterized by the limited consumption of unhealthy foods, such as red meat, processed meat, sweets, soft drinks (sodas), and packaged ultra-processed salty snacks.

Abstract
As sorafenib is a first-line drug for treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, sorafenib resistance has historically attracted attention. However, most of this attention has been focused on a series of mechanisms related to drug resistance arising after sorafenib treatment. In this study, we used proteomic techniques to explore the potential mechanisms by which pretreatment factors affect sorafenib resistance. The degree of redundant pathway PI3K/AKT activation, biotransformation capacity, and autophagy level in hepatocellular carcinoma patients prior to sorafenib treatment might affect their sensitivity to sorafenib, in which ADH1A and STING1 are key molecules. These three factors could interact mechanistically to promote tumor cell survival, might be malignant features of tumor cells, and are associated with hepatocellular carcinoma prognosis. Our study suggests possible avenues of therapeutic intervention for patients with sorafenib-resistance and the potential application of immunotherapy with the aim of improving the survival of such patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Screening options for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are limited. New-onset type 2 diabetes (NoD) is associated with subsequent diagnosis of PDAC in observational studies and may afford an opportunity for PDAC screening. We evaluated this association using a large administrative database. METHODS Patients were identified using claims data from the OptumLabs® Data Warehouse. Adult patients with NoD diagnosis were matched 1:3 with patients without NoD using age, sex and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) status. The event of PDAC diagnosis was compared between cohorts using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors associated with PDAC diagnosis were evaluated with Cox's proportional hazards modeling. RESULTS We identified 640 421 patients with NoD and included 1 921 263 controls. At 3 years, significantly more PDAC events were identified in the NoD group vs control group (579 vs 505; P < 0.001). When controlling for patient factors, NoD was significantly associated with elevated risk of PDAC (HR 3.474, 95% CI 3.082-3.920, P < 0.001). Other factors significantly associated with PDAC diagnosis were increasing age, increasing age among Black patients, and COPD diagnosis (P ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS NoD was independently associated with subsequent diagnosis of PDAC within 3 years. Future studies should evaluate the feasibility and benefit of PDAC screening in patients with NoD.

Abstract
SHR6390 (dalpiciclib) is a selective and effective cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor and an effective cancer therapeutic agent. On 31 December 2021, the new drug application was approved by National Medical Product Administration (NMPA). The metabolism, mass balance, and pharmacokinetics of SHR6390 in 6 healthy Chinese male subjects after a single oral dose of 150 mg [14C]SHR6390 (150 µCi) in this research. The Tmax of SHR6390 was 3.00 h. In plasma, the t1/2 of SHR6390 and its relative components was approximately 17.50 h. The radioactivity B/P (blood-to-plasma) AUC0-t ratio was 1.81, indicating the preferential distribution of drug-related substances in blood cells. At 312 h after administration, the average cumulative excretion of radioactivity was 94.63% of the dose, including 22.69% in urine and 71.93% in stool. Thirteen metabolites were identified. In plasma, because of the low level of radioactivity, only SHR6390 was detected in pooled AUC0-24 h plasma. Stool SHR6390 was the main component in urine and stool. Five metabolites were identified in urine, and 12 metabolites were identified in stool. Overall, faecal clearance is the main method of excretion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of infections among cancer patients is as high as 23.2-33.2% in China. However, the lack of information and data on the number of antibiotics used by cancer patients is an obstacle to implementing antibiotic management plans. AIM This study aimed to investigate bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance in Chinese cancer patients to provide a reference for the rational use of antibiotics. DESIGN This was a 5-year retrospective study on the antibiotic resistance of cancer patients. METHODS In this 5-year surveillance study, we collected bacterial and antibiotic resistance data from 20 provincial cancer diagnosis and treatment centers and three specialized cancer hospitals in China. We analyzed the resistance of common bacteria to antibiotics, compared to common clinical drug-resistant bacteria, evaluated the evolution of critical drug-resistant bacteria and conducted data analysis. FINDINGS Between 2016 and 2020, 216 219 bacterial strains were clinically isolated. The resistance trend of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to amikacin, ciprofloxacin, cefotaxime, piperacillin/tazobactam and imipenem was relatively stable and did not significantly increase over time. The resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains to all antibiotics tested, including imipenem and meropenem, decreased over time. In contrast, the resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii strains to carbapenems increased from 4.7% to 14.7%. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) significantly decreased from 65.2% in 2016 to 48.9% in 2020. CONCLUSIONS The bacterial prevalence and antibiotic resistance rates of E. coli, K. pneumoniae, P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii, S. aureus and MRSA were significantly lower than the national average.

Abstract
Continuous innovation in artificially-induced agarwood technology is increasing the amount of agarwood and substantially alleviating shortages. Agarwood is widely utilized in perfumes and fragrances; however, it is unclear whether the overall pharmacological activity of induced agarwood can replace wild agarwood for medicinal use. In this study, the volatile components, total chromone content, and the differences in the overall activities of wild agarwood and induced agarwood, including the antioxidant, anti-acetylcholinesterase, and anti-glucosidase activity were all determined. The results indicated that both induced and wild agarwood's chemical makeup contains sesquiterpenes and 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones. The total chromone content in generated agarwood can reach 82.96% of that in wild agarwood. Induced agarwood scavenged 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS+) radicals and inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity and α-glucosidase activity with IC50 values of 0.1873 mg/mL, 0.0602 mg/mL, 0.0493 mg/mL, and 0.2119 mg/mL, respectively, reaching 80.89%, 93.52%, 93.52%, and 69.47% of that of wild agarwood, respectively. Accordingly, the results distinguished that induced agarwood has the potential to replace wild agarwood in future for use in medicine because it has a similar chemical makeup to wild agarwood and has comparable antioxidant, anti-acetylcholinesterase, and anti-glucosidase capabilities.

Abstract
1. Testosterone has an anabolic effect on skeletal muscle. The testes produce most of the testosterone in vivo, while the adrenal glands contribute smaller amounts. When testis testosterone is deficient the adrenal gland increases steroid hormone synthesis, which is referred to as compensatory testicular adaptation (CTA).2. To reveal the effects of testis testosterone deficiency on adrenal steroid hormones synthesis and skeletal muscle development, gene expression related to adrenal steroid hormones synthesis and skeletal muscle development were determined by RNA-seq.3. The results showed that castrating male ducks had significant effects on their body weight but no significant impact on cross-sectional area (CSA) or density of pectoral muscle fibres. In skeletal muscle protein metabolism, expression levels of the catabolic gene atrogin1/MAFbx and the anabolic gene eEF2 were significantly higher, with concomitant increases after castration. The adrenal glands' alteration of the steroid hormone 11β-hydroxylase (CYP11B1) was significantly lower following castration.4. Expression pattern analysis showed that the adrenal glands' glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1/GR) had a potential regulatory relationship with the skeletal muscle-related genes (Pax7, mTOR, FBXO32, FOXO3, and FOXO4).5. The data showed that castration affected muscle protein metabolism, adrenal steroid and testosterone synthesis. In addition, it was speculated that, after castration, steroid hormones produced by the adrenal gland could have a compensatory effect, which might mediate the changes in skeletal muscle protein metabolism and development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney cancer undergoes a dramatic metabolic shift and has demonstrated responsiveness to immunotherapeutic intervention. However, metabolic classification and the associations between metabolic alterations and immune infiltration in Renal cell carcinoma still remain elucidative. METHODS Unsupervised consensus clustering was conducted on the TCGA cohorts for metabolic classification. GESA, mRNAsi, prognosis, clinical features, mutation load, immune infiltration and differentially expressed gene differences among different clusters were compared. The prognosis model and nomograms were constructed based on metabolic gene signatures and verified using external ICGC datasets. Immunohistochemical results from Human Protein Atlas database and Tongji hospital were used to validate gene expression levels in normal tissues and tumor samples. CCK8, apoptosis analysis, qPCR, subcutaneously implanted murine models and flowcytometry analysis were applied to investigate the roles of ACAA2 in tumor progression and anti-tumor immunity. RESULTS Renal cell carcinoma was classified into 3 metabolic subclusters and the subcluster with low metabolic profiles displayed the poorest prognosis, highest invasiveness and AJCC grade, enhanced immune infiltration but suppressive immunophenotypes. ACAA2, ACAT1, ASRGL1, AKR1B10, ABCC2, ANGPTL4 were identified to construct the 6 gene-signature prognosis model and verified both internally and externally with ICGC cohorts. ACAA2 was demonstrated as a tumor suppressor and was associated with higher immune infiltration and elevated PD-1 expression of CD8+ T cells. CONCLUSIONS Our research proposed a new metabolic classification method for RCC and revealed intrinsic associations between metabolic phenotypes and immune profiles. The identified gene signatures might serve as key factors bridging tumor metabolism and tumor immunity and warrant further in-depth investigations.

Abstract
The role of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), along with the regulatory mechanisms underlying distinct macrophage activation states, remains poorly understood in prostate cancer (PCa). Herein, we report that PCa growth in mice with macrophage-specific Ubc9 deficiency is substantially suppressed compared with that in wild-type littermates, an effect partially ascribed to the augmented CD8+ T cell response. Biochemical and molecular analyses revealed that signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4) is a crucial UBC9-mediated SUMOylation target, with lysine residue 350 (K350) as the major modification site. Site-directed mutation of STAT4 (K350R) enhanced its nuclear translocation and stability, thereby facilitating the proinflammatory activation of macrophages. Importantly, administration of the UBC9 inhibitor 2-D08 promoted the antitumor effect of TAMs and increased the expression of PD-1 on CD8+ T cells, supporting a synergistic antitumor efficacy once it combined with the immune checkpoint blockade therapy. Together, our results demonstrate that ablation of UBC9 could reverse the immunosuppressive phenotype of TAMs by promoting STAT4-mediated macrophage activation and macrophage-CD8+ T cell crosstalk, which provides valuable insights to halt the pathogenic process of tumorigenesis.

Abstract
SHR0302, a selective JAK1 inhibitor developed by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co., was intended for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. In this study, we evaluated the pharmacokinetics, mass balance, and metabolism of SHR0302 in six healthy Chinese male subjects after a single 8 mg (80 µCi) oral dose of [14C]SHR0302.SHR0302 was absorbed rapidly (Tmax = 0.505 h), and the average t1/2 of the SHR0302-related components in plasma was approximately 9.18 h. After an oral dose was administered, the average cumulative excretion of the radioactive components was 100.56% ± 1.51%, including 60.95% ± 11.62% in urine and 39.61% ± 10.52% in faeces.A total of 16 metabolites were identified. In plasma, the parent drug SHR0302 accounted for 90.42% of the total plasma radioactivity. In urine, SHR161279 was the main metabolite, accounting for 33.61% of the dose, whereas the parent drug SHR0302 only accounted for 5.1% of the dose. In faeces, the parent drug SHR0302 accounted for 23.73% of the dose, and SHR161279 was the significant metabolite, accounting for 5.67% of the dose. In conclusion, SHR0302-related radioactivity was mainly excreted through urine (60.95%) and secondarily through faeces (39.61%).The metabolic reaction of SHR0302 in the human body is mainly through mono-oxidation and glucuronidation. The main metabolic location of SHR0302 in the human body is the pyrrolopyrimidine ring.

Abstract
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is considered to be related to the worse prognosis, which might in part be attributed to the early recurrence and metastasis, compared with other type of kidney cancer. Oxidative stress refers to an imbalance between production of oxidants and antioxidant defense. Accumulative studies have indicated that oxidative stress genes contribute to the tumor invasion, metastasis and drug sensitivity. However, the biological functions of oxidative stress genes in ccRCC remain largely unknown. In this study, we identified 1,399 oxidative stress genes from GeneCards with a relevance score ≥7. Data for analysis were accessed from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) database, and were utilized as training set and validation set respectively. Univariate Cox analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression and multivariate Cox were employed to construct a prognostic signature in ccRCC. Finally, a prognostic signature including four different oxidative stress genes was constructed from 1,399 genes, and its predictive performance was verified through Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Interestingly, we found that there was significant correlation between the expression of oxidative stress genes and the immune infiltration and the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutics. Moreover, the highest hazard ratio gene urocortin (UCN) was chosen for further study; some necessary vitro experiments proved that the UCN could promote the ability of ccRCC proliferation and migration and contribute to the degree of oxidative stress. In conclusion, it was promising to predict the prognosis of ccRCC through the four oxidative stress genes signature. UCN played oncogenic roles in ccRCC by influencing proliferation and oxidative stress pathway, which was expected to be the novel therapeutic target for ccRCC.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the malignant tumors of urinary system with a high morbidity. Enhancer RNA is a subclass of long non-coding RNA transcribed from active enhancer regions, which plays a critical role in gene transcriptional regulation. However, the role of enhancer RNA (eRNA) in PCa remains extremely mysterious. This study is aimed at exploring key prognostic eRNAs in PCa. First, we downloaded gene expression data and clinical data of 33 cancer types from UCSC Xena platform. Second, we selected reported putative eRNA-target pairs and performed the Kaplan-Meier survival and correlation analysis to determine the crucial eRNAs most related to biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival. Third, we explored the clinical characteristics with the key eRNA GAS1 adjacent regulatory RNA (GAS1RR) and performed a computational difference algorithm and the Cox regression analysis. Next, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed to explore the underlying mechanisms. Finally, we used the pan-cancer data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and performed reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) of 18 pairs of specimens to prove the results we acquired. Among all 2695 putative eRNAs, 6 pairs of eRNA-target genes were prominently related to BCR-free survival. Growth arrest-specific protein 1 (GAS1) was a target gene of GAS1RR (r = 0.86, P < 0.001). Patients with low GAS1RR expression were likely to have unfavorable clinical characteristics. The result of computational Cox regression analysis demonstrated that GAS1RR may predict the prognosis of PCa independently. RT-qPCR results illuminated that GAS1RR and GAS1 were both downregulated in PCa tissues, and they show a strong positive correlation. GO and KEGG analyses revealed biological processes that GAS1RR was mainly associated with. Immune infiltration analysis indicated that GAS1RR expression is correlated with the infiltration level of six kinds of immune cells. Our results suggest that GAS1RR may be clinically useful in the prediction of PCa prognosis. Moreover, it may also be a prognostic predictor and theoretic target with great promise in PCa.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has been widely used in the treatment of advanced stage cancers with spreading metastases, while the fully activation of immune system often requires sustained and long-acting immune stimulation by immunotherapeutic agents. In previous studies, we designed a biopolymer immune implant by dynamic covalent bonds and achieved sustained release of loaded immunotherapeutic agents, thus stimulated systemic immune activation and elicited immune memory effects. Herein, we further optimized the implants and carried out a comprehensive evaluation of the implants on peritoneal metastasis carcinoma (PMC) therapy. Our results showed that the implants fabricated with 8-arm polyethylene glycol amine (8-arm PEG-NH2) and 40% oxidation degree dextran (ODEX) exhibited a satisfactory degradation time for activating the antitumor immunity. The drug combination of oxaliplatin (OxP) and resiquimod (R848) could be sustainably released from the implants for 18 days. The implants cured 75% of mice with PMC and elicited immune memory effects to resist tumor re-challenge without obvious side effects observed. Mechanism analysis revealed that the implants could serve as an in-situ vaccine to enhance the infiltration of activated dendritic cells (DCs), T cells and natural killer (NK) cells inside the tumor, as well as increase the serum tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin 12 (IL-12) levels. These results strongly support the clinical translation potential of this sustained released biopolymer immune implants for PMC therapy.

Abstract
1. An experiment feeding three concentrations of betaine was conducted using breeding geese to analyse the reproductive performance, serum biochemical indexes, egg quality and intestinal immunity.2. A total of 450 female and 90 male Jiangnan White breeding geese were divided into three treatments, with five pen replicates each containing 30 female geese and 6 male geese.3. The results showed that there was no significant effect on the reproductive performance, serum biochemical indexes or jejunal villi goblet cells of geese with different levels of betaine in the diet (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the addition of 2.5 g/kg betaine to the diet showed a tendency to increase egg mass (P>0.05) the betaine content in the yolk (P<0.05). Feeding betaine significantly increased the height of jejunal villi and egg yolk total cholesterol content in female geese (P<0.05).4. In conclusion, adding betaine to the goose diet was effective in its ability to improve intestinal structures and increase egg production. Adding 2.5 g/kg betaine to feed significantly increased the content of TCHOL and betaine in goose eggs.
