Abstract
The aberrant activation of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) acts as a potent driver of multiple types of human cancers. Despite the development of several conventional small-molecular FGFR inhibitors, their clinical efficacy is largely compromised due to low selectivity and side effects. Here, we report the selective FGFR1/2-targeting proteolysis targeting chimeric (PROTAC), BR-cpd7 that displays significant isoform specificity to FGFR1/2 with DC50 values around 10 nM, while sparing FGFR3. The following mechanistic investigation reveals the reduced FGFR signaling, through which BR-cpd7 induces cell cycle arrest and consequently blocks the proliferation of multiple FGFR1/2-dependent tumor cells. Importantly, BR-cpd7 has almost no anti-proliferative activity against cancer cells without FGFR aberrations, furtherly supporting its selectivity. In vivo, BR-cpd7 exhibits robust antitumor effects in FGFR1-dependent lung cancer at well-tolerated dose schedules, accompanied by complete FGFR1 depletion. Overall, we identify BR-cpd7 as a promising candidate for developing a selective FGFR1/2-targeted agent, thereby offering a new therapeutic strategy for human cancers in which FGFR1/2 plays a critical role.

Abstract
The cross section of the ^{13}C(α,n)^{16}O reaction is needed for nuclear astrophysics and applications to a precision of 10% or better, yet inconsistencies among 50 years of experimental studies currently lead to an uncertainty of ≈15%. Using a state-of-the-art neutron detection array, we have performed a high resolution differential cross section study covering a broad energy range. These measurements result in a dramatic improvement in the extrapolation of the cross section to stellar energies potentially reducing the uncertainty to ≈5% and resolving long standing discrepancies in higher energy data.

Abstract
Colorectal carcinoma (CRC), one of the most life-threatening cancer types, is associated with aberrant expression of epigenetic modifiers and activation of the Wnt pathway. However, the role of epigenetic regulators in driving cancer cell proliferation and their potential as therapeutic targets affecting the Wnt pathway remain unclear. In this study, BRD4 was found to promote the progression of CRC both in vitro and in vivo. The expression of BRD4 correlated with shortened CRC patient survival. In addition, BRD4 function was strongly correlated with the Wnt pathway, but rather through regulation of TCF7L2 at transcriptional levels. BRD4 and H3K27ac have overlapping occupancies in the cis-regulatory elements of TCF7L2, suggesting enhancer-based epigenetic regulation. Numerous YY1 binding sites were found in the abovementioned region. YY1 recruited BRD4 to bind to cis-regulatory elements of TCF7L2, thereby regulating the expression of TCF7L2. Altogether, this study validates that BRD4 performs a canonical epigenetic regulatory function in CRC and can be used in the treatment of Wnt pathway-dependent CRC or other malignancies with clinically available bromodomain inhibitors.

Abstract
Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignant bone cancer and usually occurs in adolescents and children. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play essential roles in tumor development and progression. This study aimed to explore the function and molecular basis of circ_0016347 in OS progression. Materials and Methods: The levels of circ_0016347, miR-1225-3p, and ether à go-go 1 (KCNH1) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or Western blot assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and colony formation assay. Cell migration and invasion were evaluated by transwell assay. Glucose consumption and lactate production were detected by glucose detection and lactic acid detection kits. The levels of Ki-67, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and hexokinase-2 (HK2) were examined by Western blot assay. The interaction among circ_0016347, miR-1225-3p, and KCNH1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft assay was conducted to analyze tumor growth in vivo. Results: Circ_0016347 and KCNH1 were upregulated, while miR-1225-3p was downregulated in OS tissues or cells. Circ_0016347 and KCNH1 promoted proliferation, migration, invasion, and glycolysis of OS cells. Circ_0016347 regulated OS progression by modulating KCNH1. Circ_0016347 was a sponge of miR-1225-3p, and miR-1225-3p targeted KCNH1. Circ_0016347 regulated KCNH1 expression via sponging miR-1225-3p. Moreover, silencing of circ_0016347 inhibited tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion: Circ_0016347 contributed to OS progression through the miR-1225-3p/KCNH1 axis, which might provide a promising biomarker for OS therapy.

Abstract
Purpose: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the three most common female genital tract cancers, and it contributes to the leading deaths of gynecologic cancer. MTHFD2 was reported up-regulated and associated with poor prognosis in many malignancies. However, its biological functions and mechanisms in EC are unclear. The present study aimed to identify the biological functions and potential molecular mechanisms of MTHFD2 in EC. Methods: The gene expression and information of patients used in this study were derived from TCGA, GEO and HPA databases. KM survival analysis was used to explore the clinical outcomes of EC patients and correlation analysis was applied to find the correction between MTHFD2 expression level and immune infiltration in EC. We used GO and GSEA analysis to explore the biological functions and mechanisms of MTHFD2. The CCK8 assay, the colony formation assay and the transwell migration assay were conducted to validate the function of MTHFD2 in EC cells. We applied STRING to find the protein that interacted with MTHFD2. Finally, ENCORI was used to explore the potential upstream regulation of MTHFD2 in EC and it was validated in EC cells. Results: In the present study, we found that MTHFD2 was up-regulated in EC and its high expression level was associated with patients' poor prognosis and adverse clinical parameters. MTHFD2 level was shown to be correlated with immune infiltration. Knockdown of MTHFD2 inhibited the malignant phenotype of HEC-1A and Ishikawa cells, including proliferation, colony formation and migration. Furthermore, we found the SNHG3/hsa-miR-455-5p axis as the potential upstream of MTHFD2. Conclusion: SNHG3/hsa-miR-455-5p axis-mediated high expression of MTHFD2, and the MTHFD2 expression level was associated with tumor immune infiltration and endometrial carcinoma progression. Knockdown of MTHFD2 significantly inhibited the malignant phenotype of EC cells. MTHFD2 may be a valuable predictive biomarker, and targeting MTHFD2 may be an effective way to improve the therapeutic effect in EC.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the ideal entry point and direction of retrograde intramedullary nailing of the tibia. METHODS The imaging data of patients with distal tibial fractures from June 2020 to December 2021 in our hospital were collected, and computer-aided design was performed. The relevant data were imported into the software for processing, so as to obtain a distal tibial fracture model and simulate the retrograde intramedullary nail placement in the tibia. The entry points and angles at which the intramedullary nail could be inserted successfully and the fracture could be maintained in good alignment were overlapped and counted to obtain the safe entry range and angle. The center of this safe range is the ideal entry point for retrograde intramedullary nailing of the tibia, and the mean value of the angle is the ideal direction of entry. RESULTS The ideal entry point of the retrograde intramedullary nailing was located at the midpoint of the medial malleolus in the C-arm fluoroscopic anteroposterior (AP) and lateral view. The ideal nail entry direction was located at the anatomic axis of the medial malleolus in the AP position and at the anatomic axis of the distal tibial metaphysis in the lateral position. CONCLUSION The ideal point and direction of nail insertion for retrograde tibial intramedullary nailing is a "double midpoint, double axis" approach.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There may be inaccuracies in hepatic steatosis in past research assessing the relationship between bone metabolism and liver steatosis. The goal of the current research was to look at the associations between bone mineral density (BMD) and the hepatic steatosis and fibrosis as detected by vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) in teenagers in the United States. METHODS Weighted multiple linear regression models and smoothed curve fitting were used to investigate the association between BMD and the degree of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in adolescents. RESULTS In 829 adolescents aged 12-19 years we found a negative association between total BMD and CAP (controlled attenuation parameter) [-32.46 (-58.98, -9.05)] and a significant positive association between lumbar BMD and LSM (liver stiffness measurement) [1.35 (0.19, 2.51)]. The inverted U-shaped relationships were founded between total BMD, lumbar BMD, pelvis BMD, and CAP with inflection points of 221.22 dB/m, 219.88 dB/m, and 216.02 dB/m, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In adolescents, higher BMD is significantly associated with lower levels of hepatic steatosis and higher levels of liver stiffness.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) with volar locking plates are commonly used to manage distal radial fractures. The anatomical tilt lateral (ATL) wrist X-ray is often required for evaluation of intra-articular screw penetration due to the screw position. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between the tube angulation given by performing radiographers for the ATL projection and the post-examination measurement of radial inclination (RI) on the Posterior Anterior (PA) wrist image. METHODS A retrospective review was performed for 36 patients. A standardised method developed by Kreder et al. (1996) was used to measure the RI on the PA wrist image. All ATL images sent into Picture Archiving and Communications System (PACS) have the tube angulation applied annotated on the image. Pearson's correlation was used to analyse the co-relationship between the RI and the tube angle applied for ATL projection. RESULTS The average angle of RI measured by the four observers was 19. Normality of 0.385 was established. A positive correlation (p = 0.792) between the RI and the tube angle applied for ATL was found. CONCLUSION Our study found a strong positive correlation between the tube angulation applied by performing radiographers for the ATL projection and the post-examination RI measured on the PA wrist image by the independent reviewers. This suggests that radiographers can use the measured RI to apply the tube angulation when performing the ATL wrist X-ray, instead of estimating the tube angulation to be applied. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Using the measured RI to apply the tube angulation when performing the ATL wrist X-ray will ensure a more reliable and reproducible way that could reduce the number of repeated images and, thus, unnecessary radiation dose to patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) is a novel obesity evaluation indicator that appears to be superior to body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) in evaluating muscle and fat mass. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between WWI and fractures among adults. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, multivariate logistic regression and smoothed curve fitting were used to investigate linear and nonlinear associations between WWI and fractures, based on data from 28,679 adult participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018. RESULTS After adjusting for all covariates, the prevalence of hip/wrist/spine fractures among all participants was 1.09%, 8.87%, and 1.97%, respectively. A 1-unit increase in WWI was associated with a 5% increase in the odds of hip fractures [1.05 (1.01, 1.10)], and a 9% increase in the odds of spine fractures [1.09 (1.06, 1.13)], but not with the prevalence of wrist fractures [0.97 (0.94, 1.06)]. CONCLUSIONS Higher WWI was associated with an increased prevalence of hip fracture and spine fracture, but not wrist fracture.

Abstract
Objective: This study aims to investigate the associations between genetic variations of pyroptosis pathway related key genes and adverse events (AEs) of postoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in patients with rectal cancer. Methods: DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood which was collected from 347 patients before CRT. Sequenom MassARRAY was used to detect the genotypes of 43 haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNPs) in eight pyroptosis genes, including absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), caspase-1 (CASP1), caspase-4(CASP4), caspase-5 (CASP5), caspase-11 (CASP11), gasdermin D (GSDMD), gasdermin E (GSDME) and NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3). The associations between 43 htSNPs and AEs were evaluated by the odd ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) by unconditional logistic regression models, adjusted for sex, age, clinical stage, tumor grade, Karnofsky performance status (KPS), surgical procedure, and tumor location. Results: Among the 347 patients with rectal cancer underwent concurrent CRT with capecitabine after surgery, a total of 101(29.1%) occurred grade ≥ 2 leukopenia. rs11226565 (OR=0.41, 95% CI: 0.21-0.79, P=0.008), rs579408(OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.03-2.29, P=0.034) and rs543923 (OR=0.63, 95% CI: 0.41-0.98, P=0.040) were significantly associated with the occurrence of grade ≥ 2 leukopenia. One hundred and fifty-six (45.0%) had grade ≥ 2 diarrhea, two SNPs were significantly associated with the occurrence of grade ≥ diarrhea, including CASP11 rs10880868 (OR=0.55, 95% CI: 0.33-0.91, P=0.020) and GSDME rs2954558 (OR=1.52, 95% CI: 1.01-2.31, P=0.050). In addition, sixty-six cases (19.0%) developed grade ≥2 dermatitis, three SNPs that significantly associated with the risk of grade ≥2 dermatitis included GSDME rs2237314 (OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.16-0.83, P=0.017), GSDME rs12540919 (OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.27-0.99, P=0.045) and NLRP3 rs3806268 (OR=1.51, 95% CI: 1.03-2.22, P=0.037). There was no significant difference in the association between other genetic variations and AEs of rectal cancer patients (all P>0.05). Surgical procedure and tumor location had great impacts on the occurrence of grade ≥2 diarrhea and dermatitis (all P<0.01). Conclusion: The genetic variants of CASP4, CASP11, GSDME and NLRP3 are associated with the occurrence of AEs in patients with rectal cancer who received postoperative CRT, suggesting they may be potential genetic markers in predicting the grade of AEs to achieve individualized treatment of rectal cancer.

Abstract
Introduction The mechanism by which socioeconomic status (SES) affects bone mineral density (BMD) remains unknown, and body mass index (BMI) may be a potential mediator. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether BMI mediates the relationship between SES [education level and poverty income ratio (PIR)] and lumbar BMD and the proportion it mediates. Methods This study included a total of 11,075 adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Lumbar BMD was measured at the lumbar spine by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Multivariate linear regression and smoothing curve fitting were used to investigate the relationship between SES and lumbar BMD. Mediator analysis was used to investigate the proportion of BMI mediating the association between SES and BMD. Results In the fully adjusted model, there was a positive correlation between SES and BMD (education level: β = 0.025, 95% CI: 0.005, 0.045; PIR: β = 0.007, 95% CI: 0.002, 0.011). Mediation analysis showed that BMI mediated the relationship between PIR, education level, and lumbar BMD with a range of mediation proportions from 13.33 to 18.20%. Conclusion BMI partially mediated the positive association between SES and BMD, and this association may be largely mediated by factors other than BMI.

Abstract
PurposePostoperative distal tibial fractures are often associated with complications such as difficulties in fracture healing and surgical incision infection. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fracture healing time and functional recovery after a retrograde tibial intramedullary nail treatment for distal tibial fractures.MethodsWe retrospectively studied 9 cases of patients with distal tibial fractures treated with retrograde intramedullary nailing (IMN). Fracture healing time was based on monthly postoperative x-ray imaging results, and functional outcomes were defined according to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score.ResultsAmong the 9 patients with distal tibial fractures from July 2020 to April 2021, the mean age was 51.8 ± 13.8 years. The classification of distal tibial fractures in the 9 patients according to OTA (Orthopaedic Trauma Association) includes 6 extra-articular fractures (3 of type A1, 2 of type A2, and 1 of type A3) and 3 intra-articular fractures (1 of type C1 and 2 of type C2). Among them, there were 5 closed fracture cases and 4 open fracture cases (according to Gustilo classification: 2 of type I, 2 of type II). We treated the fractures surgically with new retrograde tibial intramedullary nailing. The mean follow-up time for this group was 7.9 months (5–12 months). According to monthly postoperative radiographs performed to monitor fracture healing, the mean healing time was 3.3 months (3–4 months). Final postoperative function according to the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score shows 6 excellent cases, 3 good cases. No serious complications such as postoperative infection, bone and internal fixation exposure, osteofascial compartment syndrome, or vascular nerve injury occurred.ConclusionThe new retrograde tibial intramedullary nail (RTN) has some unique advantages, and its treatment of distal tibial fractures can achieve good efficacy, but further studies are still needed to verify it.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study was undertaken to determine the clinical effectiveness of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) with unilateral balloon infusion of low dose of bone cement for treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) in the elderly. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was carried out. A total of 36 patients with OVCFs treated by PKP from August 2019 and August 2020 were included. Patients were divided into two groups according to the amount of bone cement infused into the vertebral body. The amount of cement in conventional-dose group was 3.5-6.0 mL and the amount of cement in small-dose group was 1.8-3.0 mL. Pain relief before and after the operation were evaluated, and the leakage of bone cement in the two groups was also observed. RESULTS Two groups of patients have obtained a good clinical efficacy. Pain has significant differences before and after the operation (p < 0.05). More importantly, compared with conventional-dose group, small-dose group has lower bone cement leakage rate (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS PKP with small-dose bone cement infusion can obtain the same clinical effects of conventional-dose, but the incidence of bone cement leakage is lower and safe.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Severe hyperkalaemia is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening condition. Despite this knowledge, the incidence of hyperkalaemia in hospital inpatients remains high. On review of the acute management of hyperkalaemia at Croydon University Hospital, only 50% of medical and elderly care inpatients were managed correctly in line with hospital guidelines, and 50% of surveyed doctors did not feel confident managing acute hyperkalaemia—highlighting an urgent requirement for improvement. The project objectives were to improve management in line with hospital guidelines, overall prescription accuracy and the confidence of junior doctors in managing acute hyperkalaemia.
Methods
Two PDSA cycles; cycle one involved teaching sessions to doctors and the creation and circulation of information posters. Cycle two involved the development and implementation of a new electronic order prescription set for the management of acute hyperkalaemia.
Results
Post-intervention results showed an improvement in the correct management of hyperkalaemia from 50% to 80%. Prescription accuracy improved from 90% to 100%. Doctors reported an improvement in their overall confidence from 50% to 64%. Sub-group analysis identified no post-intervention improvement in the correct management of hyperkalaemia in care of the elderly (COTE, >80 years) patients. COTE patients were also less likely to be managed correctly (45% vs 57%) and to have accurate prescriptions (71% vs 100%). However, prescription accuracy did improve in the COTE group (50% to 100%).
Conclusion
This project achieved its initial objectives. However, COTE patients were less likely to be managed correctly. This may be secondary to being more complex patients, having multiple co-morbidities or significant polypharmacy, which may further contribute to hyperkalaemia. Doctors may feel less confident suspending or modifying medications in these cases and seek input from specialist teams prior to doing so. Future interventions will focus on delivering teaching sessions on hyperkalaemia in complex cases to improve confidence and understanding.

Abstract
Medulloblastoma (MB), accounting for nearly 10% of all childhood brain tumors, are implicated with aberrant activation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. Saikosaponin B1 (SSB1) and Saikosaponin D (SSD), two bioactive constituents of Radix Bupleuri, are reported to have many biological activities including anticancer activities. In our work, we evaluated the inhibition of SSB1 and SSD on MB tumor growth in allograft mice and explored the underlying mechanisms. The associated biological activity was investigated in Shh Light II cells, an Hh-responsive fibroblast cell line, using the Dual-Glo® Luciferase Assay System. First, SSB1 (IC50, 241.8 nM) and SSD (IC50, 168.7 nM) inhibited GLI-luciferase activity in Shh Light II cells stimulated with ShhN CM, as well as Gli1 and Ptch1 mRNA expression. In addition, both compounds suppressed the Hh signaling activity provoked by smoothened agonist (SAG) or excessive Smoothened (SMO) expression. Meanwhile, SSB1 and SSD did not inhibit glioma-associated oncogene homolog (GLI) luciferase activity activated by abnormal expression of downstream molecules, suppressor of fuse (SUFU) knockdown or GLI2 overexpression. Consequently, SSB1 (30 mg/kg, ip) and SSD (10 mg/kg, ip) displayed excellent in vivo inhibitory activity in MB allografts, and the tumor growth inhibition ratios were approximately 50% and 70%, respectively. Our findings, thus, identify SSB1 and SSD significantly inhibit tumor growth in MB models by inhibiting the Hedgehog pathway through targeting SMO.

Abstract
Both bench and bedside investigations have challenged the supportive role of Hedgehog (Hh) activity in the progression of colorectal cancers, thus raising a critical need to further deeply determine the contribution of Hh to the growth of colorectal cancer. Combining multiple complementary means, including in vitro and in vivo inflammatory colorectal cancer models, and pathological analysis of clinical colorectal cancer patients samples. We report that colorectal cancer cells hijack prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to non-canonically promote Hh transcriptional factor Gli activity and Gli-dependent proliferation of colorectal cancer cells in a Smo-independent manner. Mechanistically, PGE2 activates c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which in turn enables Gli2 to evade ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation by phosphorylating Gli2 at Thr1546. This study not only presents evidence for understanding the contribution of Hh to colorectal cancers, but also provides a novel molecular portrait underlying how PGE2-activated JNK fine-tunes the evasion of Gli2 from ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation. Therefore, it proposes a rationale for the future evaluation of chemopreventive and selective therapeutic strategies for colorectal cancers by targeting PGE2-JNK-Gli signaling route.

Abstract
Background:Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 positive dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5+ DM) is typically amyopathic and associated with a life-threatening, therapy-resistant, rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD).Objectives:The present study aims to characterize the prognostic factors and long-term outcome of MDA5+ DM -associated RP-ILD.Methods:A multicenter retrospective study was performed across ten tertiary hospitals in China between January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2019.Results:A total of 238 patients (170 women) with MDA5+ DM enrolled into this retrospective clinical study. The mean age was 53.0 ± 12.2 years. The median follow-up duration was 6.3 ± 12.2 months. Of those 238 anti-MDA5+ patients, ILD is commonly observed in 213 patients, and RP-ILD occurred in 35.29% (84/213) of these patients (RP-ILD defined as progressive dyspnea occurs within 1 month after the onset of respiratory symptoms, and chest radiography or pulmonary function test show progressive interstitial abnormalities). The mortality rate of RP-ILD patients within the 6 months was 58.3% (49/84) in our cohort. Death peaked the first three months after diagnosis, occupying 84.8% (39/46) of died RP-ILD patients. Cox univariate proportional hazard analysis showed that age, gender, disease duration, abnormal laboratory features (LDH, CK, ESR and CRP), anti-Ro52 autoantibody and anti-MDA5 grade were related to the risk of occurrence of RP-ILD in patients with MDA5+ DM. The Cox proportional hazards model identified the disease duration [odds ratio (OR) 0.81 (95% CI 0.68, 0.96), P=0.016] as a protective factor, and anti-Ro52 autoantibody [OR 5.82 (95% CI 1.72, 19.73), P=0.005] as independent risk factors for the occurrence of RP-ILD in MDA5+ DM patients. The 6-month all-cause mortality rate of RP-ILD patients was 58.3% (49/84).Conclusion:Combined with anti-Ro52 in Myositis-specific antibodies was associated with the occurrence and long-term mortality in MDA5+ DM -associated RP-ILD patients. The results suggest poor overall survival among patients with MDA5+ DM -associated RP-ILD. Survival during the first 6 months is crucial for long-term survival. Early recognition and prompt treatment of this high-risk group of MDA5+ DM -associated RP-ILD patients are therefore important.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play an essential role in maintaining self-tolerance and immune homeostasis. Abnormalities in the quantity or function of Treg cells are believed in RA patients, contributing to the inability to suppress autoimmunity and proinflammatory cytokines. Forkhead box P3 (Foxp3) is a crucial transcription factor for the development and differentiation of Tregs. How Tregs lose Foxp3 expression under inflammatory milieu remains largely unknown. Peptidase inhibitor 16 (PI16) is a member of the CAP (Cysteine-rich secretory proteins, Antigen 5, and Pathogenesis-related 1) protein family and its function are largely poor understood. In a genome-wide expression profiling study for identifying human Foxp3 target genes revealed PI16 was expressed on the cell surface of >80% of resting human CD25+ Foxp3+ Tregs. In the inflamed joint of juvenile idiopathic arthritis revealed a low number of PI16+ Tregs but high number of Th17 cells. However, little is known the function role of PI16 on Tregs or on RA development.Objectives:To investigate the role of peptidase inhibitor 16 (PI16) on the key T regulatory (Tregs) cells transcription factor Foxp3 expression and on the development of autoimmune arthritis.Methods:The expression of PI16 in blood, synovial fluid, inflamed joints were examined in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and in arthritic mice. Arthritis symptom, histological features and Foxp3 expression in PI16 transgenic (PI16Tg) arthritic mice were examined. Posttranslational mechanisms on PI16-mediated Foxp3 expression were analyzed. The specific role PI16 on Foxp3 expression was validated in conditional knockout (KO) mice.Results:The expression of PI16 was significantly increased in PBMC, serum, synovial tissue from RA patients or arthritic mice compared with controls. PI16Tg arthritic mice exhibited obvious inflammation, synovial hyperplasia and articular cartilage destruction in the joints compared with those in wild-type mice (WT) arthritic mice.Foxp3 is downregulated in splenic T cells and synovial tissue from PI16Tg arthritic mice. Naïve T cells derived from PI16Tg arthritic mice showed the decreased capacity to differentiate into Tregs. Polycomb-group (PcG) proteins complex molecule of Bmi-1 was significant increase in Tregs and joint tissue from PI16Tg arthritic mice. A direct interaction between 1-95AA domains of PI16 and 169 and 436 domains of Bmi-1 in Tregs promoter was observed. The binding of PI16 with Bmi-1 in the Foxp3 promoter inhibit the K48-linked polyubiquitin degradation of Bmi-1 at lysine site 72 and 153 region, which prompts the repressive histone modification of H3K27me3 and H2AK119ub, and inhibits the active histone modification of H3K4me3. Furthermore, conditional knockout of PI16 in Tregs retarded Foxp3 loss and blunted disease progression in experimental arthritis.Conclusion:PI16 represses Foxp3 expression by mediating histone modification via inhibiting K48-linked polyubiquitin degradation of Bmi-1 in Foxp3 promoter, contributing to disease progression in arthritic mice.Disclosure of Interests:None declared.

Abstract
Background:Our team have previously reported that Adiponectin correlates well with synovial inflammation and progressive bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Angiogenesis is another important part, which plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of RA.Objectives:We hypothesized that adiponectin induces synovial angiogenesis in RA.Methods:Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) was used to screen cellular changes in local knee joint of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) after intraarticularly injected of adiponectin. Chimera models of synovium-cartilage-NOD/SCID mice, matrigel plug assay and rat aortic ring assay were performed to demonstrate the pro-angiogenesis role of adiponectin. Cellular experiment, including proliferation, migration, apoptosis, tube formation and angiogenesis related gene expression profile, were detected with Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) and Mice Lung Microvessel Endothelial Cell (MLMEC) after adiponectin stimulation. Seahorse was performed to clear the influence of adiponectin to cell metabolism.Results:The synovium and pannus hyperplasia worse in CIA model after intraarticularly injected of adiponectin, along with more serious synovitis and bone erosion. ScRNA-Seq of synovial tissues separated from CIA reminded that endothelial cell barbarically grows via metabolic remodeling after stimulated with adiponectin. Synovial chimera, matrigel plug and rat aortic ring shows adiponectin accelerates angiogenesis significantly in different background conditions. In vitro, endothelial cell proliferation detecting by RCTA and CCK8, migration by wound healing and transwell, apoptosis by FACS, tube formation and angiogenesis related gene expression profile by PCR-ARRAY were promoted by adiponectin in both HUVEC and MLMEC. Seahorse showed HUVEC made more use of glycolysis after co-cultured with adiponectin, a method of cell energy supply that tumor cells possess called warburg effect, that drives endothelial cell hyperplasia in severe environment.Conclusion:As a classic metabolic regulator, adiponectin exacerbates CIA by promoting angiogenesis through metabolic remodeling. The findings not only provide a novel insight into the pathogenic role of adiponectin, but also reveals a potential therapeutical strategy to attenuate revascularization in RA.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:The prognosis of anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 positive dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5+ DM) – associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor and heterogeneity.Objectives:The aim of this study was to evaluate prognostic factors and to develop a simple and generally applicable bedside decision tree model for predicting outcomes in patients with anti-MDA5+ DM and to guide treatment.Methods:We analyzed data for 246 anti-MDA5+ DM patients from Myositis Study Group-Jiangsu, a multicenter cohort across eighteen tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu province, from March 2019 to October 2020. The primary end point was all-cause death, and the secondary end point was occurring of rapidly progressive-ILD (rp-ILD). We used a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model to identify the independent prognostic risk factors of death and rp-ILD respectively. A decision-tree prediction model was developed by using data from 10 hospital of southern region (n=163), with validation by using contemporaneous data from northern region (n=83).Results:To assess the risk of rp-ILD, we developed a combined risk score, the CROSS score, that included the following values and scores: C-reactive protein (≤8mg/L, 0; >8mg/L, 3), anti-Ro52 antibody (negative, 0; positive, 4), Sex (Female, 0; Male, 2) and Short course of disease (More than 3 months, 0; Less than 3 months, 2). The mortality risk was identified by the CAR score, including C-reactive protein (≤8mg/L, 0; >8mg/L, 1), Alanine Transaminase (≤50units/L, 0; >50units/L, 1) and rp-ILD (non-rpILD, 0; rp-ILD, 3). We divided patients into three risk groups according to the CROSS score: low, 0 to 3; medium, 4 to 7; and high 8-11. And then Use of a simple decision tree prediction model permitted stratification into three different outcome prediction groups. High-risk patients had significantly higher mortality rates than low- and medium-risk patients in both discovery and validation cohorts (p < 0.0001).Conclusion:The CROSS-CAR decision tree model is easy to evaluate the poor prognostic risk in MDA5+ DM patients during any follow-up period. Unnecessary lung examination, such as chest CT scan and arterial blood gas analysis was avoided in low- and medium- rpILD risk patients. The special ambulance, with red cross sign tagged on car in China, may help to screen the high risk patients and to guide further treatment.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Medulloblastoma (MB) is a common yet highly heterogeneous childhood malignant brain tumor, however, clinically effective molecular targeted therapy is lacking. Modulation of hedgehog (HH) signaling by epigenetically targeting the transcriptional factors GLI through bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) has recently spurred new interest as potential treatment of HH-driven MB. Through screening of current clinical BRD4 inhibitors for their inhibitory potency against glioma-associated oncogene homolog (GLI) protein, the BRD4 inhibitor 2 was selected as the lead for further structural optimization, which led to the identification of compounds 25 and 35 as the high potency HH inhibitors. Mechanism profiling showed that both compounds suppressed HH signaling by interacting with the transcriptional factor GLI, and were equally potent against the clinical resistant mutants and the wild type of smoothened (SMO) receptor with IC50 values around 1 nmol/L. In the resistant MB allograft mice, compound 25 was well tolerated and markedly suppressed tumor growth at both 5 mg/kg (TGI = 83.3%) and 10 mg/kg (TGI = 87.6%) doses. Although further modification is needed to improve the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, compound 25 represents an efficacious lead compound of GLI inhibitors, possessing optimal safety and tolerance to fight against HH-driven MB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence for the effectiveness of vitiligo treatments is limited. OBJECTIVES To determine the effectiveness of (i) handheld narrowband UVB (NB-UVB) and (ii) a combination of potent topical corticosteroid (TCS) and NB-UVB, compared with TCS alone, for localized vitiligo. METHODS A pragmatic, three-arm, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial (9-month treatment, 12-month follow-up). Adults and children, recruited from secondary care and the community, aged ≥ 5 years and with active vitiligo affecting < 10% of skin, were randomized 1 : 1 : 1 to receive TCS (mometasone furoate 0·1% ointment + dummy NB-UVB), NB-UVB (NB-UVB + placebo TCS) or a combination (TCS + NB-UVB). TCS was applied once daily on alternating weeks; NB-UVB was administered on alternate days in escalating doses, adjusted for erythema. The primary outcome was treatment success at 9 months at a target patch assessed using the participant-reported Vitiligo Noticeability Scale, with multiple imputation for missing data. The trial was registered with number ISRCTN17160087 on 8 January 2015. RESULTS In total 517 participants were randomized to TCS (n = 173), NB-UVB (n = 169) and combination (n = 175). Primary outcome data were available for 370 (72%) participants. The proportions with target patch treatment success were 17% (TCS), 22% (NB-UVB) and 27% (combination). Combination treatment was superior to TCS: adjusted between-group difference 10·9% (95% confidence interval 1·0%-20·9%; P = 0·032; number needed to treat = 10). NB-UVB alone was not superior to TCS: adjusted between-group difference 5·2% (95% CI - 4·4% to 14·9%; P = 0·29; number needed to treat = 19). Participants using interventions with ≥ 75% expected adherence were more likely to achieve treatment success, but the effects were lost once treatment stopped. Localized grade 3 or 4 erythema was reported in 62 (12%) participants (including three with dummy light). Skin thinning was reported in 13 (2·5%) participants (including one with placebo ointment). CONCLUSIONS Combination treatment with home-based handheld NB-UVB plus TCS is likely to be superior to TCS alone for treatment of localized vitiligo. Combination treatment was relatively safe and well tolerated but was successful in only around one-quarter of participants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Economic evidence for vitiligo treatments is absent. OBJECTIVES To determine the cost-effectiveness of (i) handheld narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) and (ii) a combination of topical corticosteroid (TCS) and NB-UVB compared with TCS alone for localized vitiligo. METHODS Cost-effectiveness analysis alongside a pragmatic, three-arm, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial with 9 months' treatment. In total 517 adults and children (aged ≥ 5 years) with active vitiligo affecting < 10% of skin were recruited from secondary care and the community and were randomized 1: 1: 1 to receive TCS, NB-UVB or both. Cost per successful treatment (measured on the Vitiligo Noticeability Scale) was estimated. Secondary cost-utility analyses measured quality-adjusted life-years using the EuroQol 5 Dimensions 5 Levels for those aged ≥ 11 years and the Child Health Utility 9D for those aged 5 to < 18 years. The trial was registered with number ISRCTN17160087 on 8 January 2015. RESULTS The mean ± SD cost per participant was £775 ± 83·7 for NB-UVB, £813 ± 111.4 for combination treatment and £600 ± 96·2 for TCS. In analyses adjusted for age and target patch location, the incremental difference in cost for combination treatment compared with TCS was £211 (95% confidence interval 188-235), corresponding to a risk difference of 10·9% (number needed to treat = 9). The incremental cost was £1932 per successful treatment. The incremental difference in cost for NB-UVB compared with TCS was £173 (95% confidence interval 151-196), with a risk difference of 5·2% (number needed to treat = 19). The incremental cost was £3336 per successful treatment. CONCLUSIONS Combination treatment, compared with TCS alone, has a lower incremental cost per additional successful treatment than NB-UVB only. Combination treatment would be considered cost-effective if decision makers are willing to pay £1932 per additional treatment success.
