Abstract Background The 2019 novel coronavirus has caused the outbreak of acute respiratory disease in Wuhan, Hubei Province China since December 2019. This study was performed to analyze clinical characteristics patients who succumbed and recovered from (COVID-19). Methods Clinical data were collected two tertiary hospitals Wuhan. A retrospective investigation conducted fatal cases COVID-19 (death group) we compare them with (recovered group). Continuous variables analyzed using...
The role of interleukin (IL)-6 in the pathogenesis cardiac myocyte hypertrophy remains controversial.To conclusively determine whether IL-6 signaling is essential for development pressure overload-induced left ventricular (LV) and to elucidate underlying molecular pathways.Wild-type knockout (IL-6(-/-)) mice underwent sham surgery or transverse aortic constriction (TAC) induce overload. Serial echocardiograms terminal hemodynamic studies revealed attenuated LV superior preservation function...
Deregulated microRNAs (miRNAs) and their roles in cancer development have attracted much attention. Two miRNAs, miR-15a miR-16, which act as putative tumor suppressor by targeting the oncogene BCL2 , been implicated cell cycle, apoptosis proliferation. In this study, we investigated possible role of miR-15a/16 angiogenesis multiple myeloma (MM). Using a stem-loop quantitative reverse transcription–PCR, analyzed expressions bone marrow samples from newly diagnosed MM patients panel lines....
BCMA-specific chimeric antigen receptor-T cells (CAR-Ts) have exhibited remarkable efficacy in refractory or relapsed multiple myeloma (RRMM); however, primary resistance and relapse exist with single-target immunotherapy. Bispecific CARs are proposed to mitigate these limitations.We constructed a humanized bispecific BM38 CAR targeting BCMA CD38 tested the antimyeloma activity of CAR-Ts vitro vivo. Twenty-three patients RRMM received infusions phase I trial.BM38 showed stronger cytotoxicity...
Objectives: An ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 is spreading globally. Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure the most common complication 2019. However, clinical effectiveness early high-flow nasal oxygen treatment in patients with acute has not been explored. This study aimed to analyze and identify variables predicting failure. Design: A multicenter, retrospective cohort study. Setting: Three tertiary hospitals Wuhan, China. Patients: Forty-three confirmed adult treated oxygen....
Background This study aimed to evaluate the longitudinal progression of residual lung abnormalities (ground-glass opacities, reticulation and fibrotic-like changes) pulmonary function at 3 years following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods prospective, cohort enrolled COVID-19 survivors who exhibited upon discharge from two hospitals. Follow-up assessments were conducted 6 months, 12 2 post-discharge, included tests, 6-min walk distance (6MWD), chest computed tomography (CT) scans...
Abstract Pyroptosis is a form of programmed cell death (PCD) that plays vital role in immunity and diseases. Although it was recently reported chemotherapy drugs can induce pyroptosis through caspase‐3‐dependent cleavage gasdermin E (GSDME), the osteosarcoma (OS) with dioscin less understood. In this study, we explored effects on OS vitro vivo further elucidated underlying molecular mechanisms found dioscin‐triggered GSDME‐dependent GSDME‐N generated by caspase‐3. Furthermore, inhibited...
Chromosome 17p deletions are present in 10% of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM), and associated inferior prognosis. miR‐324‐5p is located on chromosome 17p, shows diverse functions different types cancers. However, its role MM largely unknown. Here we found the expression was decreased MM, especially del(17p) MM. In contrast, hedgehog (Hh) signaling components elevated, indicating a correlation between Hh important for pathogenesis maintenance stem cell compartment....
Inherent or acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs is still an obstacle for the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). MicroRNA dysregulation related development chemoresistance in cancers. However, its role MM largely unknown. Here we demonstrated that miR-221/222 were upregulated plasma cells from patients with MM, especially those relapsed refractory disease. Moreover, expression levels inversely correlated dexamethasone (Dex) sensitivity human cell lines. Importantly, found Dex...
N6-methyladenosine (m6A), as the most pervasive internal modification of eukaryotic mRNA, plays a crucial role in various cancers, but its multiple myeloma (MM) pathogenesis has not yet been investigated. In this study, we revealed significantly decreased m6A methylation plasma cells (PCs) from MM patients and showed that abnormal level resulted mainly upregulation demethylase fat mass obesity-associated protein (FTO). Gain- loss-of-function studies demonstrated FTO tumor-promoting...
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with camrelizumab (hereafter, TACE-camrelizumab) in treatment patients recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (R-HCC) after curative resection.R-HCC who underwent TACE plus or TACE-alone from January 2016 to August 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients assessed for tumor response, progression-free survival, survival rates adverse events.Seventy-one included this study, including 20 TACE- group 51...
Objectives To compare the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib (LEN) combined with camrelizumab plus transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE-LEN-C) TACE LEN (TACE-LEN) in patients unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC). Methods Eighty-three uHCC treated TACE-LEN-C or TACE-LEN from September 2018 to May 2021 were enrolled this retrospective study. Overall survival (OS), progression-free (PFS), local tumor response, adverse events (AEs) evaluated. Univariate multivariate analyses...
Abstract Background The prognostic significance of the CRAFITY score ( CR P and AF in I mmuno T herap Y ) has been demonstrated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients receiving immunotherapy. purpose this study was to investigate utility predictive value HCC after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combination with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) Materials methods Data from advanced treated TACE plus TKIs PD-1 inhibitor January 2019 June 2022 were collected analyzed retrospectively....
Browning white adipocytes may be a new target in anti-obesity therapy. Pentamethylquercetin (PMQ) has been shown to have effects monosodium glutamate-induced obese mice. Here, we aimed study the of PMQ vitro and vivo determine if adipose browning is involved mechanism underlying PMQ. We evaluated on cell proliferation, differentiation, glucose consumption, cellular lipid metabolism, related brown gene expression 3T3-L1 adipocytes. also investigated mouse model high-fat diet (HFD)-induced...
