Abstract
ARX788 is an anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) antibody-drug conjugate with AS269 as cytotoxic payload. In this phase 1 multicenter dose-expansion clinical trial, patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma failing to respond to prior trastuzumab-based standard treatment were enrolled. Between July 15th, 2019, and March 14th, 2022, 30 participants were enrolled. Twenty-eight (93.3%) patients experienced at least one drug-related adverse event (AE) and 13.3% experienced grade 3 ARX788-related AEs. The confirmed objective response rate is 37.9% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 20.7%-57.7%) and the disease control rate is 55.2% (95% CI: 35.7%-73.6%). With a median follow up of 10 months, the median progression-free survival and overall survival are 4.1 (95% CI: 1.4-6.4) and 10.7 months (95% CI: 4.8-not reached), respectively. The median duration of response is 8.4 (95% CI: 2.1-18.9) months. ARX788 is well tolerated and has promising anti-tumor activity in patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric adenocarcinoma (ChinaDrugTrials.org.cn: CTR20190639).

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical and genetic features, and treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH). Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed the medical records of 25 pediatric patients with XLH who were admitted to Department of Endocrinology Genetics and Metabolism,Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2010 to January 2020. The clinical characteristics, PHEX gene variants, as well as clinical outcome of the patients were summarized. To analyze the correlation between genotype and phenotype, the patients were divided into different subgroups according to the location of the variants, including N-terminal-located vs. C-terminal-located variant, and Zn-binding domain exon 17 or 19 variant vs. non-exon 17 or 19 variant. The age at onset, height standard deviation score (HtSDS), intercondylar or intermalleolar distance, fasting serum phosphorus, and HtSDS and intercondylar or intermalleolar distance at the final follow-up were compared by rank sum test or t text. Results: Among the 25 children with XLH, 8 were boys and 17 were girls. The median age of onset was 1.2 (1.0, 1.8) years, and the median age of diagnosis was 2.5 (1.5, 4.3) years. The main clinical manifestations were abnormal gait and lower limb deformity. The HtSDS was -2.0(-3.2, -0.8), and the intercondylar or intermalleolar distance was 4.5 (3.0, 6.0) cm. The fasting serum phosphorus level was 0.8 (0.7, 0.9) mmol/L, while the serum alkaline phosphatase level was (721±41) U/L and the serum calcium level was (2.5±0.1) mmol/L. Three patients (12%) had parathyroid hormone levels above the upper limit of the normal range. Twenty-five patients (100%) showed radiographic changes of active rickets. Nephrocalcinosis was found in 2 cases (9%). Twenty-four different PHEX variations were detected in 25 patients, among whom 11 (44%) had not been reported previously. No hot spot variation was found. No statistical differences (all P>0.05) were identified in clinical features and outcomes either in comparing patients with N-terminal (21 cases) and C-terminal (4 cases) variants, or in comparing patients with variant located in exon 17 or 19 (4 cases) or not (21 cases). Twenty-four cases (96%) were treated regularly with phosphate supplements and active vitamin D. After 2.7 (1.6, 5.0) years of follow-up, clinical symptoms were relieved in 96% (24/25) of the patients. The HtSDS after treatment had no significant difference compared to that before treatment (-2.0(-3.2, -0.8) vs.-2.0(-2.8, -1.1),Z =-0.156, P>0.05), while the intercondylar or intermalleolar distance after treatment was significantly reduced compared to that before treatment (4.5(3.0, 6.0) vs. 1.5(0, 3.3) cm, Z =-3.043, P<0.05). Bone X-rays were reexamined in 17 cases after treatment, and radiographic signs of rickets were improved. Eighteen cases had secondary hyperparathyroidism and 7 cases had nephrocalcinosis. Conclusions: The main clinical manifestations of XLH are abnormal gait, lower limb deformity and short stature. A high proportion of novel variations of PHEX gene but no hot spot variation neither genotype-phenotype correlation are found. Regular treatment with phosphate supplements and active vitamin D can significantly improve the symptoms except for the height. However, the rate of adverse events including secondary hyperparathyroidism and nephrocalcinosis seems to be high.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical, genetic characteristics and follow-up data of Chinese patients with hypophosphatasia (HPP). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on six children with HPP admitted to the Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism in Beijing Children's Hospital from October 2010 to January 2019. Summarized the clinical and follow-up data of all six patients, as well as the pathogenic variants of five children. Results: The serum alkaline phosphatase levels of all six children (five males and one female) were significantly reduced (2-49 U/L). The 6 patients aged from 2 months to 6 years and 4 months, 4 infantile HPP, 1 childhood HIP and 1 odonto HPP. The four patients with infantile HPP presented with anorexia, slow weight gain and hypercalcemia, whereas the one patient with childhood HPP and the other patient with odonto HPP had tooth loss. The patient with childhood HPP also manifested with motor dysfunction. Genetic testing was conducted for five patients and 4 unrelated Chinese families and revealed 10 variations in ALPL gene, including 7 missense variation, 1 insertion variation, 1 frameshift variation, 1 deletion variation.Of which 3 were novel (p.Y28C, p.268, F>L, p.A176V).One of the infantile patients lost follow-up and the other three deceased. The clinical conditions were much improved with medical intervention for patients with childhood, orodonto HPP. Conclusions: While HPP patients with different ages of onset present with common features, the prognosis differ significantly. The prognosis is good for patients with childhood, orodonto HPP and poor for patients with infantile HPP. Genetic testing is the main method for definitive diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the mediating effect of psychological capital (PsyCap) between occupational stress and suicidal ideation. Methods: In September 2017, stratified-cluster sampling method was adopted to select employees of an electronic manufacturing service industry as respondents for a questionnaire survey in Jiangsu province. The demographic characteristics of employees were collected. A total of 2 465 employees were investigated, and 2 216 valid questionnaires were collected. The level of occupational stress and PsyCap was assessed by the Effort-Reward Imbalance Scale(ERI)and PsyCap Questionnaire. Results: The age of 2 216 employees was (28.70±5.26) years old, including 1 230 males (55.5%). The scores of occupational stress on effort, reward and over-commitment were (3.08±0.63), (3.73±0.60) and (2.51±0.68), respectively. The average ERI index (ratio of effort to return) was (0.88±0.39). The total score of PsyCap was (86.62±15.23). The detection rate of suicidal ideation within two weeks was 13.9% (309/2 216). The average score of effort and over-commitment and the ERI index were positively correlated with the number of suicidal ideation detected within two weeks, with correlation coefficients about 0.081, 0.141 and 0.164, respectively. The average score of reward and total score of PsyCap were negatively correlated with the number of suicidal ideation detected within two weeks, with correlation coefficients about -0.206 and -0.228, respectively. The mediating effect results showed that PsyCap had mediating effect on the effort, reward, over-commitment and suicidal ideation of occupational stress respectively, with mediating effect values of -0.087 (95%CI: -0.018,-0.019), -0.299 (95%CI: -0.428,-0.200) and 0.096 (95%CI: 0.0394, -0.170). The mediating effect percentages were 9.43%, 17.92%, and 9.54%, respectively. Conclusion: PsyCap has a mediating effect between effort, reward, over-commitment of occupational stress and suicidal ideation.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy of purse-string skin closure (PSC) and linear skin closure (LSC) in stoma reversal. Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing the use of PSC and LSC during stoma reversal were searched from Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI net, Wanfang database, VIP Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database. Literature inclusion criteria: (1) randomized controlled trials about comparing PSC and LSC in stoma reversal published publicly; only including English literature; (2) patients undergoing stoma (ileostomy or colostomy) reversal without limitation of age, sex and ethnicity; (3) PSC group receiving the suture of the dermis layer of the skin by purse-string suture, and forming a pore channel in the center of the skin after tightening and knotting, in order to achieve the purpose of secondary healing; the LSC group receiving the suture of the skin with conventional simple interrupted suture; (4) the enrolled literatures needed to include at least one of the following outcome indicators: the primary outcome was the incidence of SSI; the secondary outcome included the operation time, incisional hernia, hospital stay and patient satisfaction. Literature exclusion criteria: (1) duplicate published studies, incomplete studies, reviews, case reports, unpublished literature, retrospective studies, non-RCT. The search time ended on November 15, 2018. The basic information and important outcome indicators of the included articles were extracted. The Cochrane bias risk assessment tool was used to evaluate the quality of the selected literatures. Patient satisfaction was assessed using the following scales: (1) the patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS); (2) the body image questionnaire (BIQ); (3) Likert scale; (4) short form 36 (SF-36), version 2; (5) visual analog scale (VAS). Meta-analysis was performed using Review manager 5.3 software provided by the Cochrane Collaboration. Results: A total of 9 randomized controlled trials were included, involving 806 patients with 411 cases in the PSC group and 395 cases in the LSC group. Baseline data such as age, gender, body mass index (BMI), underlying disease, and anesthesia grading were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). The quality of these nine randomized controlled trials was high. Because the evaluation methods for these studies are not uniform, it is impossible to conduct a meta-analysis of patient satisfaction. However, from the summary results of various studies, the postoperative satisfaction of the purse-string suture group was better than that of the linear suture group. The meta-analysis showed that there was significant difference in postoperative SSI incidence between the PSC group and the LSC group [OR=0.14, 95%CI: 0.08-0.24, P<0.00001], while there were no significant differences in incidence of incisional hernia [OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.24-1.82, P=0.42], operation time [MD=0.61, 95%CI: -3.17-4.38, P=0.75], and hospital stay [MD=-0.26, 95%CI: -0.82-0.30, P=0.37]. Conclusions: PSC can be used for closure of the wound following stoma reversal. Compared with LSC, PSC can significantly reduce the incidence of SSI, and increase patients' satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous mass screening studies have shown that IgA antibodies against Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) can facilitate early detection of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but the impact of EBV-antibody screening for NPC-specific mortality remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective, cluster randomized, controlled trial for NPC screening (PRO-NPC-001) was conducted in 3 selected towns of Zhongshan City and 13 selected towns of Sihui City in southern China beginning in 2008. Serum samples of the screening group were tested for two previously selected anti-EBV antibodies. Subjects with serological medium risk were subsequently retested annually for 3 years, and those with serological high risk were referred to otorhinolaryngologists for diagnostic check-up. An interim analysis was carried out to evaluate the primary end points of the NPC-specific mortality and the early diagnostic rate, and the secondary end point of the NPC incidence, through linkage with the database of Zhongshan City. RESULTS Among 70 296 total subjects, 29 413 screened participants (41.8% of the total subjects) in the screening group and 50 636 in the control group, 153 (43.3 per 100 000 person-year), 62 (55.3 per 100 000 person-year) and 99 (33.1 per 100 000 person-year) NPC cases were identified. The early diagnostic rates of NPC were significantly higher in the participants (79.0%, P < 0.0001) and the screening group (45.9%, P < 0.0001) compared with the control group (20.6%). Although no differences were found between NPC-specific mortality of the screening group and the control group [relative risk (RR)= 0.82, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37-1.79], lower NPC-specific mortality was noticed among participants from the screening group versus the control group (RR = 0.22, 95% CI 0.09-0.49). CONCLUSION IgA antibodies against EBV can identify high-risk population and was effective in screening for early asymptomatic NPC. Although the mortality reduction was not significant in the primary end point, we noted encouraging evidence of a mortality reduction in screening participants in this interim analysis. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER NCT00941538.

Abstract
Background Cystinosis is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder caused by a defective transport of cystine across the lysosomal membrane. Previous studies have mapped cystinosis to the CTNS gene which is located on chromosome 17p13, and various CTNS mutations have been identified to correlate them with this disease. Methods We analyzed six patients from five unrelated families who were diagnosed with cystinosis in our hospital. We described the diagnostic procedures for all the patients and proposed alternative therapies for cystinosis patients instead of using cysteamine, an orphan drug which was commercially unavailable in China. Moreover, genetic analysis of all patients' samples was carried out to identify novel CTNS gene mutations. Results and conclusions The patients in this study were followed up from 1 to more than 10 years to monitor their growth and development, which indicated that the alternative therapies we used were helpful to ameliorate the complications of the cystinosis patients without cysteamine. Furthermore, by sequencing the patients' genome, we identified novel mutations in the CTNS gene including: c.477C > G (p.S159R), c.274C > T (p.Q92X) and c.680A > T (p.E227V); these mutations were only observed in cystinosis patients and had never been reported in any other populations, suggesting they might be specific to Chinese cystinosis patients.

Abstract
This study aims to summarize and analyze the clinical manifestations, genetic characteristics, treatment modalities and long-term prognosis of congenital hyperinsulinemia (CHI) in Chinese children. Sixty children with CHI, who were treated at Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2014 to August 2017, and their families, were selected as subjects. The CHI-related causative genes in children were sequenced and analyzed using second-generation sequencing technology. Furthermore, the genetic pathogenesis and clinical characteristics of Chinese children with CHI were explored. Among the 60 CHI children, 27 children (27/60, 45%) carried known CHI-related gene mutations: 16 children (26.7%) carried ABCC8 gene mutations, seven children (11.7%) carried GLUD1 gene mutations, one child carried GCK gene mutations, two children carried HNF4α gene mutations and one child carried HADH gene mutations. In these 60 patients, 8 patients underwent 18F-L-DOPA PET scan for the pancreas, and five children were found to be focal type. The treatment of diazoxide was ineffective in these five patients, and hypoglycemia could be controlled after receiving partial pancreatectomy. Conclusions: ABCC8 gene mutation is the most common cause of CHI in Chinese children. The early genetic analysis of children's families has an important guiding significance for treatment planning and prognosis assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the genotype and phenotype of Chinese patients with congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) caused by activating mutations in GLUD1, the gene that encodes mitochondrial enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH). METHODS The clinical data of glutamate dehydrogenase hyperinsulinism (GDH-HI) patients were reviewed, and gene mutations were confirmed by whole exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger DNA sequencing. RESULTS Twenty-six patients with GDH-HI heterozygous missense mutations were identified from 240 patients diagnosed as congenital hyperinsulinism over past 15 years. The median age at onset was 8 months (range: 1 day of life to 3 years). Seizure disorder was common in our cohort of patients (23/26). Four patients had normal serum ammonia levels; the median serum concentration was 101 μmol/L (range: 37-190 μmol/L). Hypoglycemic symptoms could be triggered by fasting or protein meals in all patients while blood glucose could be well controlled in all patients with diazoxide. Dosage of diazoxide could be reduced by protein restriction. Attempts to lower ammonia levels failed with different therapies such as protein restriction, benzoate, or N-carbamoyl glutamate. In follow-up, 15 of 26 patients had normal intelligence. Eleven patients developed epilepsy at the age of 6 months to 11 years. De novo mutations in GLUD1 were found in 24 cases, and dominant inheritance was observed in the other two; all were heterozygous. A total of 35% (9/26) patients carried c.1493C>T (p.S445L) mutation. CONCLUSIONS Phenotypic heterogeneity of GDH-HI patients was observed within the Chinese cohort in the present study. The fact that most patients had a GLUD1 p. S445L mutation implies that this site could be a hotspot in Chinese patients. A high frequency of GDH-HI with normal ammonia has been reported in this study. Hence, GLUD1 mutational analysis may be an important method to differential diagnosis of GDH-HI from other diazoxide-responsive CHI in Chinese patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics, outcome and diagnosis of two cases of imported children Zika virus infection in China. METHOD A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical characteristics, treatment and outcome of two cases of imported children with Zika virus infection in February 2016 in Enping People's Hospital of Guangdong. RESULT Two cases of children with imported Zika virus infection resided in an affected area of Venezuela, 8-year-old girl and her 6 year-old brother. The main findings on physical examination included the following manifestations: fever, rash, and conjunctivitis. The rash was first limited to the abdomen, but extended to the torso, neck and face, and faded after 3-4 d. The total number of white blood cells was not high and liver function was normal. The diagnosis of two cases of Zika virus infection was confirmed by the expert group of Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, according to the epidemiological history, clinical manifestations and Zika virus nucleic acid detection results.Treatment of Zika virus infection involves supportive care. Two Zika virus infection children had a relatively benign outcome. CONCLUSION At present, Zika virus infection in children is an imported disease in China. No specific therapy is available for this disease. Information on long-term outcomes among infants and children with Zika virus disease is limited, routine pediatric care is advised for these infants and children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the durability of resin-based root-surface coating material and all-in-one self-etching adhesive on root surface in vitro. METHODS Human extracted premolars or molars with intact roots were selected. The cementum was removed using a periodontal scaler to expose root dentin. The root surface was coated with an acid-resistant nail varnish, leaving a window of 3 mm×3 mm on the exposed dentin.The window was covered with either PRG Barrier Coat (PRG) or Clearfil S3 Bond (CS3). After water aging for 14 d, specimens were immersed in acid buffer at pH 4.5 for 4 d and the demineralization buffer was changed every 24 h. Then the specimen was split longitudinally through the center of the 'window' and the cross-sectional surface was observed with scanning electron microscope (SEM). After fixed and dehydrated, the prepared samples were coated with platinum. The coating material, root dentin and the interface was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The thickness of the coating material was measured on the SEM images. Regarding toothbrush wear test, coronal dentindisks were prepared and covered with PRG and CS3, respectively. After storage in water for 24 h, the specimen was subjected to the toothbrush wear tester for 100, 200, 300, 500, 700, 1 500 brushing cycles. A slurry of fluoride toothpaste (1:2 ratio of toothpaste and deionized water by weight) was used and the brushing load was 300 N. The surface microstructure of remaining coating material was analyzed using SEM. The wear depths were determined by a profilometer. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 20.0 by one-way ANOVA. The level of significance was at 0.05. RESULTS Application of PRG Barrier Coat produced a coating layer of (47.1±27.3) μm, while CS3 presented a thin film of (5.7±2.1) μm in thickness. The exposed dentin was hermetically sealed and no obvious gap was observed at the interface in both PRG and CS3 groups. There was no dentin demineralization observed in both groups after water aging. The wear depths of PRG and CS3 increased along with the numbers of brushing cycles. PRG wore at a significant lower pace than CS3 did (P<0.05). CONCLUSION PRG coating resin had similar performances as CS3 on protecting root dentin from demineralization after water aging. What's more, PRG demonstrated a higher toothbrush wear resistance than CS3. We concluded that PRG Barrier Coat contained S-PRG filler may be an effective coating material for protecting exposed root from both chemical and mechanical challenges. Further studies should be carried out to evaluate the long-term reliability of the rootsurface coating materials under the clinical setting.

Abstract
Background: In central precocious puberty (CPP), the pulse secretion and release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) are increased due to early activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, resulting in developmental abnormalities with gonadal development and appearance of secondary sexual characteristics. The CPP without organic disease is known as idiopathic CPP (ICPP). The objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of domestic leuprorelin (GnRH analog) in girls with ICPP. Methods: A total of 236 girls with ICPP diagnosed from April 2012 to January 2014 were selected and were randomized into two groups. One hundred fifty-seven girls in the test group were treated with domestic leuprorelin acetate, 79 girls in the control group were treated with imported leuprorelin acetate. They all were treated and observed for 6 months. After 6-month treatment, the percentage of children with peak luteinizing hormone (LH) ≤3.3 U/L, the percentage of children with peak LH/peak follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) ratio <0.6, the improvements of secondary sexual characteristics, gonadal development and sex hormone levels, the change of growth rate of bone age (BA) and growth velocity, and drug adverse effects between two groups were compared. Results: After the treatment, the percentage of children with a suppressed LH response to GnRH, defined as a peak LH ≤3.3 U/L, at 6 months in test and control groups were 96.80% and 96.20%, respectively, and the percentage of children with peak LH/FSH ratio ≤0.6 at 6 months in test and control groups were 93.60% and 93.70%, respectively. The sizes of breast, uterus and ovary of children and the levels of estradiol (E2) were significantly reduced, and the growth rate of BA was also reduced. All the differences between pre- and post-treatment in each group were statistically significant (P < 0. 05), but the differences of the parameters between two groups were not significant (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Domestic leuprorelin is effective and safe in the treatment of Chinese girls with ICPP. Its effectiveness and safety are comparable with imported leuprorelin.

Abstract
Hippocampal pathology has been considered to underlie clinical, functional and cognitive impairments in schizophrenia. While longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have demonstrated progressive gray matter reduction of the hippocampus during the early phases of schizophrenia (SCZ), very little is known about whether functional connectivity (FC) between the hippocampus and other brain regions also exhibit progressive changes. In this study, resting state functional MRI (fMRI) was used to examine changes in hippocampal connectivity at baseline and follow-up scans comparing 68 patients with first episode SCZ and 62 matched controls. At baseline and follow-up, in the bilateral hippocampal network, SCZ mainly showed decreased FC with bilateral cerebellum posterior lobe, frontal gyrus temporal gyrus, precuneus, and cingulate cortex compared to controls. Furthermore, in the bilateral hippocampus, there was a significant interaction effect of group and time for FC with cerebellum posterior lobe, temporal gyrus, frontal gyrus, and posterior cingulate cortex. Interestingly, longitudinal changes of bilateral hippocampal connectivity with right middle frontal gyrus negatively correlated with positive symptom scores in SCZ. These results provide novel evidence for the progressive changes of FC between hippocampus and other brain regions in SCZ. It further suggests that longitudinal changes of bilateral hippocampal connectivity with right middle frontal gyrus can contribute to the formation and emergence of positive symptom of SCZ.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Survivin may play an important role in the development of osteosarcoma. In this study, we chose osteosarcoma cell line MG-63, which highly expressed survivin, to observe the effects of antisense oligonucleotide targeting survivin on the apoptosis induction and proliferation inhibition. It was shown in our results that the apoptosis rate and the proliferation inhibition rate increased significantly in survivin-positive cells MG-63 by using MTT and flow cytometry methods. We found that the growth inhibition rate and apoptosis rate were changed in a dose-dependent way. When the concentration of antisurvivin oligonucleotide was 600 nM, the effects reached the peak. RT-PCR and western-blot methods were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of survivin in MG-63. We observed that the mRNA and protein expression of survivin reduced after transfected with antisurvivin oligonucleotides at the concentration of 200 nM, 400 nM and 600 nM. At the same time, we found that the mRNA and protein expression of Fas were up-regulated with the concentration of antisurvivin oligonucleotides from 200 nM to 600 nM. It was negative associated with the expression change of survivin. These data suggested that survivin should play an important role in the development of osteosarcoma and the survivin blockaded by using antisurvivin oligonucleotide could inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of osteosarcoma by decreasing the expression of survivin and activate the Fas-mediated apoptosis. Down-regulation of survivin by antisense oligonucleotide might be an effective strategy to the treatment of osteosarcoma and might improve the therapeutic effect.

Abstract
We present a dual scanning tunneling microscope (DSTM) system operating between 2.2 K and room temperature, in a split-coil superconducting magnetic field up to 12 T and in ultrahigh vacuum. The DSTM consists of two compact STMs, each having x, y, and z coarse positioning piezoelectric steppers with embedded capacitive positioning sensor for navigation. Each STM can be operated independently and can achieve atomic resolution. The DSTM and the sample is configured in a way that allows the magnetic field orientation to be varied continuously from normal to parallel to the sample surface. Together with the sample, the DSTM can form a nanometer scale three terminal setup for transport measurement.

Abstract
We isolated human KB adenocarcinoma cisplatin-resistant (CP-r) cell lines with multidrug-resistance phenotypes because of reduced accumulation of cisplatin and other cytotoxic compounds such as methotrexate and heavy metals. The uptake of horseradish peroxidase (HRPO) and Texas Red dextran was decreased several-fold in KB-CP-r cells, indicating a general defect in fluid-phase endocytosis. In contrast, although EGF receptors were decreased in amount, the kinetics of EGF uptake, a marker of receptor-mediated endocytosis, was similar in sensitive and resistant cells. However, 40-60% of the (125)I-EGF released into the medium after uptake into lysosomes of KB-CP-r cells was TCA precipitable as compared to only 10% released by sensitive cells. These results indicate inefficient degradation of internalised (125)I-EGF in the lysosomes of KB-CP-r cells, consistent with slower processing of cathepsin L, a lysosomal cysteine protease. Treatment of KB cells by bafilomycin A(1), a known inhibitor of the vacuolar proton pump, mimicked the phenotype seen in KB-CP-r cells with reduced uptake of HRPO, (125)I-EGF, (14)C-carboplatin, and release of TCA precipitable (125)I-EGF. KB-CP-r cells also had less acidic lysosomes. KB-CP-r cells were crossresistant to Pseudomonas exotoxin, and Pseudomonas exotoxin-resistant KB cells were crossresistant to cisplatin. Since cells with endosomal acidification defects are known to be resistant to Pseudomonas exotoxin and blocking of endosomal acidification mimics the CP-r phenotype, we conclude that defective endosomal acidification may contribute to acquired cisplatin resistance.
