Abstract
Background and Objectives Heterozygous pathogenic variants in ATP1A3, which encodes the catalytic alpha subunit of neuronal Na+/K+-ATPase, cause primarily neurologic disorders with widely variable features that can include episodic movement deficits. One distinctive presentation of ATP1A3-related disease is recurrent fever-triggered encephalopathy. This can occur with generalized weakness and/or ataxia and is described in the literature as relapsing encephalopathy with cerebellar ataxia. This syndrome displays genotype-phenotype correlation with variants at p.R756 causing temperature sensitivity of ATP1A3. We report clinical and in vitro functional evidence for a similar phenotype not triggered by fever but associated with protein loss-of-function. Methods We describe the phenotype of an individual with de novo occurrence of a novel heterozygous ATP1A3 variant, NM_152296.5:c.388_390delGTG; p.(V130del). We confirmed the pathogenicity of p.V130del by cell survival complementation assay in HEK293 cells and then characterized its functional impact on enzymatic ion transport and extracellular sodium binding by two-electrode voltage clamp electrophysiology in Xenopus oocytes. To determine whether variant enzymes reach the cell surface, we surface-biotinylated oocytes expressing N-tagged ATP1A3. Results The proband is a 7-year-old boy who has had 2 lifetime episodes of paroxysmal weakness, encephalopathy, and ataxia not triggered by fever. He had speech regression and intermittent hand tremors after the second episode but otherwise spontaneously recovered after episodes and is at present developmentally appropriate. The p.V130del variant was identified on clinical trio exome sequencing, which did not reveal any other variants possibly associated with the phenotype. p.V130del eliminated ATP1A3 function in cell survival complementation assay. In Xenopus oocytes, p.V130del variant Na+/K+-ATPases showed complete loss of ion transport activity and marked abnormalities of extracellular Na+ binding at room temperature. Despite this clear loss-of-function effect, surface biotinylation under the same conditions revealed that p.V130del variant enzymes were still present at the oocyte's cell membrane. Discussion This individual's phenotype expands the clinical spectrum of ATP1A3-related recurrent encephalopathy to include presentations without fever-triggered events. The total loss of ion transport function with p.V130del, despite enzyme presence at the cell membrane, indicates that haploinsufficiency can cause relatively mild phenotypes in ATP1A3-related disease.

Abstract
Enzymes from ectotherms living in chronically cold environments have evolved structural innovations to overcome the effects of temperature on catalysis. Cold adaptation of soluble enzymes is driven by changes within their primary structure or the aqueous milieu. For membrane-embedded enzymes, like the Na+/K+-ATPase, the situation is different because changes to the lipid bilayer in which they operate may also be relevant. Although much attention has been focused on thermal adaptation within lipid bilayers, relatively little is known about the contribution of structural changes within membrane-bound enzymes themselves. The identification of specific mutations that confer temperature compensation is complicated by the presence of neutral mutations, which can be more numerous. In the present study, we identified specific amino acids in a Na+/K+-ATPase from an Antarctic octopus that underlie cold resistance. Our approach was to generate chimeras between an Antarctic clone and a temperate ortholog and then study their temperature sensitivities in Xenopus oocytes using an electrophysiological approach. We identified 12 positions in the Antarctic Na+/K+-ATPase that, when transferred to the temperate ortholog, were sufficient to confer cold tolerance. Furthermore, although all 12 Antarctic mutations were required for the full phenotype, a single leucine in the third transmembrane segment (M3) imparted most of it. Mutations that confer cold resistance are mostly in transmembrane segments, at positions that face the lipid bilayer. We propose that the interface between a transmembrane enzyme and the lipid bilayer is a critical determinant of temperature sensitivity and, accordingly, has been a prime evolutionary target for thermal adaptation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To establish a Bayesian network (BN) model for postoperative adjuvant treatment of early endometrial carcinoma (EC) patients. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 1280 early EC patients treated by multiple institutions in China from 1999 to 2017. All patients received primary hysterectomy/bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy. The FIGO 2009 stage of all patients is stage I and stage II EC, and the median age is 57 years old. All patients are grouped according to the ESMO-ESGO-ESTRO risk stratification. The clinicopathologic factors, treatment-related factors, local regional recurrence, distant metastasis and cancer-specific survival rate (CSS) of all patients were reviewed. We divide the original data set into training set and Validation set according to the ratio of 7:3. The training of the Bayesian network model is completed on Netica, and the test of the model effect is finally completed on the test set. RESULTS After variable screening, a total of 14 characteristic variables entered the final model. A total of 896 patients were used for the development of BN model, and 384 patients were used for the validation of BN model. The results of the model showed that the factors directly related to CSS were locoregional failure (LRF), radiotherapy mode, distant metastasis (DM). Factors directly related to DM were chemotherapy, LRF, CSS. The factors directly related to LRF were risk stratification, preoperative serum CA125 and preoperative HB. The accuracy, sensibility, specificity, micro-f1, micro-f1, weighted-f1 and AUC of BN model in predicting DM and CSS were better than XGBoost model. CONCLUSION In this study, we integrated almost all clinical pathology and treatment information related to postoperative adjuvant treatment of early EC patients and established a BN model for personalized clinical decision-making of postoperative adjuvant treatment of early EC patients. The results showed the complex correlation among the variables, and the overall prediction ability and visualization effect of BN model was significantly better than XGBoost model. Prospective research is needed before clinical implementation.

Abstract
The accessory protein ORF3a, from SARS-CoV-2, plays a critical role in viral infection and pathogenesis. Here, we characterized ORF3a assembly, ion channel activity, subcellular localization, and interactome. At the plasma membrane, ORF3a exists mostly as monomers and dimers, which do not alter the native cell membrane conductance, suggesting that ORF3a does not function as a viroporin at the cell surface. As a membrane protein, ORF3a is synthesized at the ER and sorted via a canonical route. ORF3a overexpression induced an approximately 25% increase in cell death. By developing an APEX2-based proximity labeling assay, we uncovered proteins proximal to ORF3a, suggesting that ORF3a recruits some host proteins to weaken the cell. In addition, it exposed a set of mitochondria related proteins that triggered mitochondrial fission. Overall, this work can be an important instrument in understanding the role of ORF3a in the virus pathogenicity and searching for potential therapeutic treatments for COVID-19.

Abstract
Olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) convert the stochastic choice of one of >1,000 olfactory receptor (OR) genes into precise and stereotyped axon targeting of OR-specific glomeruli in the olfactory bulb. Here, we show that the PERK arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR) regulates both the glomerular coalescence of like axons and the specificity of their projections. Subtle differences in OR protein sequences lead to distinct patterns of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress during OSN development, converting OR identity into distinct gene expression signatures. We identify the transcription factor Ddit3 as a key effector of PERK signaling that maps OR-dependent ER stress patterns to the transcriptional regulation of axon guidance and cell-adhesion genes, instructing targeting precision. Our results extend the known functions of the UPR from a quality-control pathway that protects cells from misfolded proteins to a sensor of cellular identity that interprets physiological states to direct axon wiring.

Abstract
Na+/K+-ATPase, which creates transmembrane electrochemical gradients by exchanging 3 Na+ for 2 K+, is central to the pathogenesis of neurological diseases such as alternating hemiplegia of childhood. Although Na+/K+-ATPase has 3 distinct ion binding sites I-III, the difficulty of distinguishing ion binding events at each site from the others hinders kinetic study of these transitions. Here, we show that binding of Na+ at each site in the human α3 Na+/K+-ATPase can be resolved using extracellular Na+-mediated transient currents. When Na+/K+-ATPase is constrained to bind and release only Na+, three kinetic components: fast, medium, and slow, can be isolated, presumably corresponding to the protein dynamics associated with the binding (or release depending on the voltage step direction) and the occlusion (or deocclusion) of each of the 3 Na+. Patient-derived mutations of residues which coordinate Na+ at site III exclusively impact the slow component, demonstrating that site III is crucial for deocclusion and release of the first Na+ into the extracellular milieu. These results advance understanding of Na+/K+-ATPase mutation pathogenesis and provide a foundation for study of individual ions' binding kinetics.

Abstract
Genome engineering of Rhodococcus opacus PD630, an important microorganism used for the bioconversion of lignin, is currently dependent on inefficient homologous recombination. Although a CRISPR interference procedure for gene repression has previously been developed for R. opacus PD630, a CRISPR/Cas9 system for gene knockout has yet to be reported for the strain. In this study, we found that the cytotoxicity of Cas9 and the deficiency in pathways for repairing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) were the major causes of the failure of conventional CRISPR/Cas9 technologies in R. opacus, even when augmented with the recombinases Che9c60 and Che9c61. We successfully developed an efficient single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) recombineering system coupled with CRISPR/Cas9 counter-selection, which facilitated rapid and scarless editing of the R. opacus genome. A two-plasmid system, comprising Cas9 driven by a weak Rhodococcus promoter Pniami, designed to prevent cytotoxicity, and a single-guide RNA (sgRNA) under the control of a strong constitutive promoter, was proven to be appropriate with respect to cleavage function. A novel recombinase, RrRecT derived from a Rhodococcus ruber prophage, was identified for the first time, which facilitated recombination of short ssDNA donors (40–80 nt) targeted to the lagging strand and enabled us to obtain a recombination efficiency up to 103-fold higher than that of endogenous pathways. Finally, by incorporating RrRecT and Cas9 into a single plasmid and then co-transforming cells with sgRNA plasmids and short ssDNA donors, we efficiently achieved gene disruption and base mutation in R. opacus, with editing efficiencies ranging from 22 % to 100 %. Simultaneous disruption of double genes was also confirmed, although at a lower efficiency. This effective genome editing tool will accelerate the engineering of R. opacus metabolism.

Abstract
Mutations in genes encoding Na+ /K+ -ATPase α1, α2, and α3 subunits cause a wide range of disabling neurological disorders, and dysfunction of Na+ /K+ -ATPase may contribute to neuronal injury in stroke and dementia. To better understand the pathogenesis of these diseases, it is important to determine the expression patterns of the different Na+ /K+ -ATPase subunits within the brain and among specific cell types. Using two available scRNA-Seq databases from the adult mouse nervous system, we examined the mRNA expression patterns of the different isoforms of the Na+ /K+ -ATPase α, β and Fxyd subunits at the single-cell level among brain regions and various neuronal populations. We subsequently identified specific types of neurons enriched with transcripts for α1 and α3 isoforms and elaborated how α3-expressing neuronal populations govern cerebellar neuronal circuits. We further analyzed the co-expression network for α1 and α3 isoforms, highlighting the genes that positively correlated with α1 and α3 expression. The top 10 genes for α1 were Chn2, Hpcal1, Nrgn, Neurod1, Selm, Kcnc1, Snrk, Snap25, Ckb and Ccndbp1 and for α3 were Sorcs3, Eml5, Neurod2, Ckb, Tbc1d4, Ptprz1, Pvrl1, Kirrel3, Pvalb, and Asic2.

Abstract
Background PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy are widely used in clinical practice. However, the ideal combined timing of them has not been fully explored. Methods In this study, simulation experiments to explore the impacts of the combination of anti-PD-1 antibody (anti-PD-1 Ab) on the cytotoxic effects of chemotherapeutic drugs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were performed. In addition, the effects of the combined timing of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and chemotherapy on efficacy and safety were retrospectively analysed in patients with refractory lung cancer. Results Experiments in vitro showed that administering the anti-PD-1 Ab 3 days after chemotherapy (represented by dicycloplatin) resulted in significantly weaker cytotoxic effects on lymphocytes, compared with administering the anti-PD-1 Ab before or concurrent with chemotherapy. Moreover, data from 64 lung cancer patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy as a second- or higher-line therapy were retrospectively analysed. The results showed that administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors 1-10 days (especially 3-5 days) after chemotherapy was associated with longer overall survival [17.3 months versus 12.7 months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.28-1.19, P = 0.137 in univariate analysis; HR = 0.36, 95% CI 0.16-0.80, P = 0.012 in multivariate analysis] and a trend of improved progression-free survival (5.1 months versus 4.2 months; HR = 0.81, 95% CI 0.42-1.54, P = 0.512) compared with administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors before or concurrent with chemotherapy. Conclusion Our findings suggest that administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors 1-10 days (especially 3-5 days) after chemotherapy is superior to administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors before or concurrent with chemotherapy in patients with refractory lung cancer, but this result needs to be further explored by prospective studies. The cytotoxic effects of chemotherapeutic drugs were positively correlated with the activation states of PBMCs. Administering the anti-PD-1 Ab 3 days after chemotherapy resulted in weaker cytotoxic effects on lymphocytes in vitro. Administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors a few days after chemotherapy resulted in better survival in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship between glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and intracranial atherosclerotic plaque features has remained understudied. This study aimed to investigate the association of type 2 diabetes mellitus and glycemic control with the characteristics of intracranial plaques using vessel wall MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 311 patients (217 [69.8%] men; mean age, 63.24 ± 11.44 years) with intracranial atherosclerotic plaques detected on vessel wall MR imaging were enrolled and divided into 3 groups according to type 2 diabetes mellitus and glycemic control statuses: the non-type 2 diabetes mellitus group, the type 2 diabetes mellitus with good glycemic control group, and the type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control group. The imaging features of intracranial plaque were analyzed and compared among the groups. The clinical risk factors for atherosclerosis were also analyzed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The plaque length and thickness were significantly higher in the type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control group than in the non-type 2 diabetes mellitus group. The prevalence of strongly enhanced plaques was significantly higher in the type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control group than in the non-type 2 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus with good glycemic control groups (92.9%, 63.4%, and 72.7%, respectively; P < .001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant association of poor glycemic control with the plaque length (OR = 1.966; 95% CI, 1.170-3.303; P = .011), plaque thickness (OR = 1.981; 95% CI, 1.174-3.340; P = .010), and strongly enhanced plaque (OR = 5.448; 95% CI, 2.385-12.444; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Poor glycemic control, compared with the history of diabetes, might have a greater impact on the burden and vulnerability of intracranial atherosclerotic plaques.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Mitochondria are dynamic regulators of cellular metabolism and homeostasis. The dysfunction of mitochondria has long been considered a major contributor to aging and age-related diseases. The prognosis of severe heart failure is still unacceptably poor and it is urgent to establish new therapies for this critical condition. Some patients with heart failure do not respond to established multidisciplinary treatment and they are classified as “non-responders”. The outcome is especially poor for non-responders, and underlying mechanisms are largely unknown.
Purpose
Studies indicate mitochondrial dysfunction has causal roles for metabolic remodeling in the failing heart, but underlying mechanisms remain to be explored. This study tried to elucidate the role of Mitofusin-1 in a failing heart.
Methods
We examined twenty-two heart failure patients who underwent endomyocardial biopsy of intraventricular septum. Patients were classified as non-responders when their left-ventricular (LV) ejection fraction did not show more than 10% improvement at remote phase after biopsy. Fourteen patients were classified as responders, and eight as non-responders. Electron microscopy, quantitative PCR, and immunofluorescence studies were performed to explore the biological processes or molecules involved in failure to respond. In addition to studies with cardiac tissue specific knockout mice, we also conducted functional in-vitro studies with neonatal rat ventricular myocytes.
Results
Twenty-two patients with IDCM who underwent endomyocardial biopsy were enrolled in this study, including 14 responders and 8 non-responders. Transmission electron microscopy (EM) showed a significant reduction in mitochondrial size in cardiomyocytes of non-responders compared to responders. Quantitative PCR revealed that transcript of mitochondrial fusion protein, Mitofusin-1, was significantly reduced in non-responders. Studies with neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) indicated that the beta-1 adrenergic receptor-mediated signaling pathway negatively regulates Mitofusin-1 expression. Suppression of Mitofusin-1 resulted in a significant reduction in mitochondrial respiration of NRVMs. We generated left ventricular pressure overload model with thoracic aortic constriction (TAC) in cardiac specific Mitofusin-1 knockout model (c-Mfn1 KO). Systolic function was reduced in c-Mfn1 KO mice, and EM study showed an increase in dysfunctional mitochondria in the KO group subjected to TAC.
Conclusions
Mitofusin-1 becomes a biomarker for non-responders with heart failure. In addition, our results suggest that therapies targeting mitochondrial dynamics and homeostasis would become next generation therapy for severe heart failure patients.

Abstract
Background This study was performed to explore the clinical and prognostic significance of APOB mRNA expression, DNA methylation and APOB mutation in patients with low-grade glioma (LGG). Methods Bioinformatic analysis was conducted using genomic, clinical and survival data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases. Serum APOB protein levels were measured via immunoturbidimetry in 150 patients with LGG and 100 healthy controls from Hubei General Hospital. Results There was a negative association between the levels of APOB mRNA and DNA methylation (r=−0.355, P<0.0001) in patients with LGG from the TCGA database. Additionally, LGG patients with low levels of APOB mRNA exhibited better overall survival (OS) than those with high levels of APOB mRNA (HR=0.637, P=0.0085). The survival time of LGG patients with APOB hypermethylation was markedly longer than that of patients with APOB hypomethylation (HR=0.423, P=0.0185). The prognostic significance of APOB mRNA and DNA methylation was also validated with the CGGA cohort, and a similar conclusion was reached. APOB gene mutations were observed in 3% of patients with LGG from the TCGA database, and no association was detected between APOB mutations and OS (P=0.164). Furthermore, the levels of APOB protein were much lower in patients with LGG than in normal individuals (P=0.0022), and the expression of APOB protein was markedly different among groups when stratified by histological type (P<0.0001) and histological-molecular classification (P<0.0001). Conclusion APOB mRNA expression is negatively regulated by DNA methylation in patients with LGG. Low expression or hypermethylation of APOB might predict relatively favorable survival in patients with LGG.

Abstract
Assessment of the value of three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (3D-DSA) combined with neurointerventional thrombolysis in the treatment of senile cerebrovascular occlusion was investigated. A total of 129 patients with senile cerebrovascular occlusion admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from August 2015 to September 2017 were collected. Among them, 69 patients who underwent neurointerventional catheter thrombolysis under 3D-DSA were included in the study group, and 60 patients treated with neurointerventional thrombolysis were the control group. The levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-1β and IL-8 in the two groups were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before treatment (T0), 7 days (7d) after treatment (T1) and 14 days (14d) after treatment (T2). The score of the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale and the clinical efficacy of patients in the two groups were compared before and after treatment, and Barthel index (BI) was used for investigation before and after treatment. The recurrence rate of disease in the two groups within 1 year was recorded. At T1, IL-6, IL-1β and IL-8 in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The NIHSS score in the study group was lower than that in the control group after treatment (P<0.05). The BI score in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group after treatment (P<0.05). After the prognostic follow-up, the disease recurrence rate of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, 3D-DSA combined with neurointerventional thrombolysis can significantly reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokines and improve the quality of life in patients with cerebrovascular occlusion, which has a high clinical value.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinical and imaging characteristics of cerebral amyloid angiopathy characterized by cortical superficial siderosis and improve clinicians' understanding of the disease. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on 16 patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy characterized by cortical superficial siderosis from June 2013 to August 2016 in Beijing Hospital, and the information including epidemiological data, clinical features, cranial MRI and electroencephalogram (EEG) results were analyzed. Results: The ratio of male to female in 16 patients was 1.67∶1, and the average age of onset was 73 (69-79) years. The most common clinical symptoms were transient focal neurological episodes (TFNEs)(12/16). Cranial MRI showed localized (9/16) and diffuse type cortical superficial siderosis (7/16); few of them were associated with different degrees of cerebral microbleeds. Most of the EEG findings were normal (6/9) and a few showed focal slow waves (3/9). During a mean follow-up of 17 (17±11) months, 5 patients developed repeated TFNE, of which 1 had cerebral hemorrhage. Conclusions: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy characterized by cortical superficial siderosis occurs predominantly in the elderly. TFNE is the most common clinical manifestation. Cranial MRI is the most important diagnostic method, and antithrombotic therapy should be avoided as much as possible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to explore the expression level and biological function of lncRNA PRNCR1 in preeclampsia (PE). PATIENTS AND METHODS 57 PE patients and 57 normal pregnant women were enrolled in this study. The expression level of PRNCR1 in the maternal placenta of PE patients and normal pregnancy was detected by qRT-PCR. The CCK-8 assay was carried out to determine the cell viability after interference and overexpression of PRNCR1 on trophoblasts. We utilized Western blot to examine the protein level of PRNCR1. RESULTS Higher systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and urinary protein levels in PE patients were observed in comparison with those in normal pregnant women, while the neonatal weight in PE group was markedly lower than that in normal pregnant women. LncRNA PRNCR1 was overexpressed in PE patients, which was positively correlated with systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and urine protein, whereas negatively correlated with fetal birth weight of PE patients. In addition, the expression of PRNCR1 in BeWo trophoblast cells was significantly decreased after the interference with PRNCR1, while the cell viability increased. However, overexpression of PRNCR1 in HTR-8 cells significantly reduced the viability of cells. Expression levels of p-p38 and p-JNK in PE patients were higher than those in normal pregnancy women, and the expression level of p-ERK was decreased, which suggested that PRNCR1 promoted the progression of PE by modulating the MAPK signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS PRNCR1 is highly expressed in PE and promotes the progression of PE by modulating the MAPK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Utilization of feed in livestock species consists of a wide range of biological processes, and therefore, its efficiency can be expressed in various ways, including direct measurement, such as daily feed intake, as well as indicator measures, such as feeding behavior. Measuring feed efficiency is important to the swine industry, and its accuracy can be enhanced by using automated feeding systems, which record feed intake and associated feeding behavior of individual animals. Each automated feeder space is often shared among several pigs and therefore raises concerns about social interactions among pen mates with regard to feeding behavior. The study herein used a data set of 14,901 Duroc boars with individual records on feed intake, feeding behavior, and other off-test traits. These traits were modeled with and without the random spatial effect of Pen_Room, a concatenation of room and pen, or random social interaction among pen mates. The nonheritable spatial effect of common Pen-Room was observed for traits directly measuring feed intake and accounted for up to 13% of the total phenotypic variance in the average daily feeding rate. The social interaction effect explained larger proportions of phenotypic variation in all the traits studied, with the highest being 59% for ADFI in the group of feeding behaviors, 73% for residual feed intake (RFI; RFI4 and RFI6) in the feed efficiency traits, and 69% for intramuscular fat percentage in the off-test traits. After accounting for the social interaction effect, residual BW gain and RFI and BW gain (RIG) were found to have the heritability of 0.38 and 0.18, respectively, and had strong genetic correlations with growth and off-test traits. Feeding behavior traits were found to be moderately heritable, ranging from 0.14 (ADFI) to 0.52 (average daily occupation time), and some of them were strongly correlated with feed efficiency measures; for example, there was a genetic correlation of 0.88 between ADFI and RFI6. Our work suggested that accounting for the social common pen effect was important for estimating genetic parameters of traits recorded by the automated feeding system. Residual BW gain and RIG appeared to be two robust measures of feed efficiency. Feeding behavior measures are worth further investigation as indicators of feed efficiency.

Abstract
Obtaining accurate individual feed intake records is the key first step in achieving genetic progress toward more efficient nutrient utilization in pigs. Feed intake records collected by electronic feeding systems contain errors (erroneous and abnormal values exceeding certain cutoff criteria), which are due to feeder malfunction or animal-feeder interaction. In this study, we examined the use of a novel data-editing strategy involving multiple imputation to minimize the impact of errors and missing values on the quality of feed intake data collected by an electronic feeding system. Accuracy of feed intake data adjustment obtained from the conventional linear mixed model (LMM) approach was compared with 2 alternative implementations of multiple imputation by chained equation, denoted as MI (multiple imputation) and MICE (multiple imputation by chained equation). The 3 methods were compared under 3 scenarios, where 5, 10, and 20% feed intake error rates were simulated. Each of the scenarios was replicated 5 times. Accuracy of the alternative error adjustment was measured as the correlation between the true daily feed intake (DFI; daily feed intake in the testing period) or true ADFI (the mean DFI across testing period) and the adjusted DFI or adjusted ADFI. In the editing process, error cutoff criteria are used to define if a feed intake visit contains errors. To investigate the possibility that the error cutoff criteria may affect any of the 3 methods, the simulation was repeated with 2 alternative error cutoff values. Multiple imputation methods outperformed the LMM approach in all scenarios with mean accuracies of 96.7, 93.5, and 90.2% obtained with MI and 96.8, 94.4, and 90.1% obtained with MICE compared with 91.0, 82.6, and 68.7% using LMM for DFI. Similar results were obtained for ADFI. Furthermore, multiple imputation methods consistently performed better than LMM regardless of the cutoff criteria applied to define errors. In conclusion, multiple imputation is proposed as a more accurate and flexible method for error adjustments in feed intake data collected by electronic feeders.

Abstract
Complement-mediated inflammation plays a vital role in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), implicating pro-inflammatory factor interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) secretion. Brain samples and contralateral hemiencephalon were all collected and detected by Western blot. NLRP3 expression was located by dual immunofluorescence staining at 1, 3, and 5 days post-ICH. Brain water content was examined post-ICH. The neural deficit scores were evaluated by observers blindly. ILs were detected by ELISA. SiRNAs targeting NLRP3 (siNLRP3), siASC, and siControl were injected to inhibit NLRP3 function. To test the complement activation via Nod-like receptor (NLR) family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3), normal rabbit complement (NRC) was injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to facilitate the complement function. As a result, complement 3a (C3a) and complement 5a (C5a) were upregulated during the ICH-induced neuroinflammation, and ablation of C3 attenuates ICH-induced IL-1β release. Though the LPS rescues the neuroinflammation in the ICH model, C3 deficiency attenuates the LPS-induced inflammatory effect. The NLRP3 inflammasome was activated after ICH and was located in the microglial cell of the mouse brain, which exhibits a time-dependent manner. However, the number of NLRP3/Iba-1 dual-labeled cells in the C3-/- group is less than that in the WT group in each time course, respectively. IL-1β and IL-18 released in perihematoma tissue, caspase-1-p20, brain water content, and behavioral outcomes were attenuated in the siNLRP3 and siASC groups than in the siControl and ICH groups. We also found that 5% of complement supplement enhances ICH-induced IL-1β release, while NLRP3 and ASC inhibition attenuates it. In conclusion, complement-induced ICH neuroinflammation depended on NLRP3 activation, which facilities LPS- and ICH-induced neuroinflammation, and NLRP3 is required for ICH-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most common malignancies in women. Paclitaxel is the front-line chemotherapeutic agent for treating CC. However, its therapeutic efficacy is limited because of chemoresistance, the mechanism of which remains poorly understood. Here, we used microRNA (miRNA) arrays to compare miRNA expression levels in the CC cell lines, HeLa and CaSki, with their paclitaxel resistance counterparts, HeLa/PR and CaSki/PR. We demonstrate that miR-125a was one of most significantly downregulated miRNAs in paclitaxel-resistant cells, which also acquired cisplatin resistance. And that the upregulation of miR-125a sensitized HeLa/PR and CaSki/PR cells to paclitaxel both in vitro and in vivo and to cisplatin in vitro. Moreover, we determined that miR-125a increased paclitaxel and cisplatin sensitivity by downregulating STAT3. MiR-125a enhanced paclitaxel and cisplatin sensitivity by promoting chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. Clinically, miR-125a expression was associated with an increased responsiveness to paclitaxel combined with cisplatin and a more favorable outcome. These data indicate that miR-125a may be a useful method to enable treatment of chemoresistant CC and may also provide a biomarker for predicting paclitaxel and cisplatin responsiveness in CC.

Abstract
Striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) complexes are striatin-centered multicomponent supramolecular structures containing both kinases and phosphatases. STRIPAK complexes are evolutionarily conserved and have critical roles in protein (de)phosphorylation. Recent studies indicate that STRIPAK complexes are emerging mediators and regulators of multiple vital signaling pathways including Hippo, MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase), nuclear receptor and cytoskeleton remodeling. Different types of STRIPAK complexes are extensively involved in a variety of fundamental biological processes ranging from cell growth, differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis to metabolism, immune regulation and tumorigenesis. Growing evidence correlates dysregulation of STRIPAK complexes with human diseases including cancer. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the assembly and functions of STRIPAK complexes, with a special focus on cell signaling and cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is not more treatment selection for advanced nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who had disease progression after two previous treatments. Everolimus is an oral inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway, which is aberrantly activated in NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Stage IV NSCLC patients, with one or multiple prior chemotherapy regimens, received everolimus 5-10 mg/day with or without chemotherapy until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary objective were toxicity of everolimus and overall disease control rate (DCR). RESULTS 22 patients were enrolled. Common ≥ grade 3 events were stomatitis, dyspnea, vomiting, thrombocytopenia. Overall disease control rate was 54.5% among 22 patients, 1 had a partial response, and 11 had disease stabilization. Common ≥ Grade 3 events were stomatitis, dyspnea, vomiting, and thrombocytopenia. CONCLUSION Everolimus was well tolerated, showing the modest clinical activity in heavily pretreated advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Efficient use of feed resources has become a clear challenge for the U.S. pork industry as feed costs continue to be the largest variable expense. The availability of the Illumina Porcine60K BeadChip has greatly facilitated whole-genome association studies to identify chromosomal regions harboring genes influencing those traits. The current study aimed at identifying genomic regions associated with variation in feed efficiency and several production traits in a Duroc terminal sire population, including ADFI, ADG, feed conversion ratio, residual feed intake (RFI), real-time ultrasound back fat thickness (BF), ultrasound muscle depth, intramuscular fat content (IMF), birth weight (BW at birth), and weaning weight (BW at weaning). Single trait association analyses were performed using Bayes B models with 35,140 SNP on 18 autosomes after quality control. Significance of nonoverlapping 1-Mb length windows (n = 2,380) were tested across 3 QTL inference methods: posterior distribution of windows variances from Monte Carlo Markov Chain, naive Bayes factor, and nonparametric bootstrapping. Genes within the informative QTL regions for the traits were annotated. A region ranging from166 to 140 Mb (4-Mb length) on SSC 1, approximately 8 Mb upstream of the MC4R gene, was significantly associated with ADFI, ADG, and BF, where SOCS6 and DOK6 are proposed as the most likely candidate genes. Another region affecting BW at weaning was identified on SSC 4 (84-85 Mb), harboring genes previously found to influence both human and cattle height: PLAG1, CHCHD7, RDHE2 (or SDR16C5), MOS, RPS20, LYN, and PENK. No QTL were identified for RFI, IMF, and BW at birth. In conclusion, we have identified several genomic regions associated with traits affecting nutrient utilization that could be considered for future genomic prediction to improve feed utilization.

Abstract
The Hippo pathway controls cell number and organ size by restricting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis, and thus is a key regulator in development and homeostasis. Dysfunction of the Hippo pathway correlates with many pathological conditions, especially cancer. Hippo signaling also plays important roles in tissue regeneration and stem cell biology. Therefore, the Hippo pathway is recognized as a crucial target for cancer therapy and regeneration medicine. To date, structures of several key components in Hippo signaling have been determined. In this review, we summarize current available structural studies of the Hippo pathway, which may help to improve our understanding of its regulatory mechanisms, as well as to facilitate further functional studies and potential therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of sporadic ruptured cerebral aneurysm in the Chinese population. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 264 consecutive Chinese patients admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University of Guizhou Province in Southwest China between December 2012 and March 2015 for spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a ruptured cerebral artery aneurysm. RESULTS The study population comprised 171 females and 93 males with a median age of 50 (range 5-76) years. The female to male ratio was 1.84:1. For both males and females, aneurysm rupture was most common in the 40-49-year age group (34.5%). Most of the ruptured aneurysms were in the size range of 2-5 mm (47.2%), followed by 5-10 mm (43.8%). Ruptured aneurysms occurred most often in the posterior communicating artery (36.6%) or the anterior communicating artery (25.7%). There were more cases of anterior communicating artery aneurysm on the left side (53 [Left side]/16 [Right side]=3.31, P>0.001) and slightly more cases of posterior communicating artery aneurysm on the right side (54 [Right side]/44[Left side]=1.23, P<0.05). CONCLUSION This study provides valuable information on the epidemiology of ruptured cerebral aneurysm in the Chinese population.

Abstract
Gamma-frequency oscillatory activity plays an important role in information integration across brain areas. Disruption in gamma oscillations is implicated in cognitive impairments in psychiatric disorders, and 5-HT3 receptors (5-HT3Rs) are suggested as therapeutic targets for cognitive dysfunction in psychiatric disorders. Using a 5-HT3aR-EGFP transgenic mouse line and inducing gamma oscillations by carbachol in hippocampal slices, we show that activation of 5-HT3aRs, which are exclusively expressed in cholecystokinin (CCK)-containing interneurons, selectively suppressed and desynchronized firings in these interneurons by enhancing spike-frequency accommodation in a small conductance potassium (SK)-channel-dependent manner. Parvalbumin-positive interneurons therefore received diminished inhibitory input leading to increased but desynchronized firings of PV cells. As a consequence, the firing of pyramidal neurons was desynchronized and gamma oscillations were impaired. These effects were independent of 5-HT3aR-mediated CCK release. Our results therefore revealed an important role of 5-HT3aRs in gamma oscillations and identified a novel crosstalk among different types of interneurons for regulation of network oscillations. The functional link between 5-HT3aR and gamma oscillations may have implications for understanding the cognitive impairments in psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is a subtype of stroke that associated with neurological dysfunction and inflammation, which may be ameliorated by a neuroprotective strategy targeting the complement cascade. The protective effect of C5a-receptor antagonist (PMX53) solely and in combination with thrombin antagonist (argatroban) was investigated in the ICH mouse model, respectively. Adult male C57BL/6J wild-type (WT) mice and C3(-/-) mice were randomized to receive PMX53/argatroban 1, 3 and 5 days after ICH. A double injection technique was used to infuse 25 μl of autologous whole blood into the right striatum. Mice in the sham group received only needle insertion. Brain water content and mRNA of inflammatory factors were measured on the first, third and fifth days after ICH, respectively. Neurological dysfunction was assessed using a 28-point neurological scoring system in the three cohorts, namely, on days 1, 3 and 5 following ICH. Animals treated with PMX53/argatroban demonstrated significant improvements in neurological function and fewer neurological apoptosis detected by TUNEL [terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end-labelling] and βIII-tubulin dual-staining compared with vehicle-treated animals. Compared with sham-treated mice, the brain water content in argatroban/PMX53-treated mice was decreased significantly in both the ipsilateral cortex and ipsilateral striatum. Administration of PMX53/argatroban provided a synergistic neuroprotective effect via reducing inflammatory factors and brain oedema, leading to improvements in neurofunctional outcome. The results of this study indicated that simultaneous blockade of the thrombin and C5a receptors represent a promising neuroprotective strategy in haemorrhagic stroke.
