    Abstract Recent studies revealed a new biological process that malignant cancer cells hijack mitochondria from nearby T cells, providing another potential mechanism for immune evasion. We further confirmed this process at the single-cell genomic level through MERCI, a novel algorithm for tracking mitochondrial (MT) transfer. Applied to human cancer samples, MERCI identified a new cancer phenotype linked to MT hijacking, correlating with rapid tumour proliferation and poor patient survival. This discovery offers insights into the limitations of current cancer immunotherapies and suggests new therapeutic avenues targeting MT transfer to enhance cancer treatment efficacy.

    Abstract Purpose – This study aims to investigate whether temperature affects the product quality of exporters and whether the effect is non-linear. More specifically, whether the impact of high temperatures differs from the impact of low temperatures, and whether different types of companies or industries are affected differently. Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses detailed data covering all Chinese exporters from 2000 to 2016 to estimate the effects of temperature on the product quality of export firms. To clarify the relationship between them, the authors use a semi-parametric regression method, trying to test whether there is a non-linear relationship between temperature and the export quality of firms. Findings – The increase in the number of high temperature days significantly reduces the quality of exported products, and this negative effect increases as the temperature rises. High temperature has the most significant negative impact on export quality for firms with low technical complexity, private firms and firms with no intermediate imports and located in historical hot cities. Product quality of both labor-intensive and capital-intensive firms will be affected by heat. High temperatures have the greatest negative impact on the export quality of newly entering products, followed by exiting products, with the least negative impact on persisting product. Originality/value – To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to examine the impact of temperature on the quality of economic development. The findings of this paper again show that the potential economic impacts of global warming are huge. In addition to some potentially devastating impacts in the future, global warming is already causing imperceptible impacts in the present. Public and economic agents need to fully understand the possible adverse impacts of climate change and take corresponding adaptation measures to cope with global warming.

    Abstract Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for 90% of renal cancers, of which clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most usual histological type. The process of alternative splicing (AS) contributes to protein diversity, and the dysregulation of protein diversity may have a great influence on tumorigenesis. We developed a prognostic signature and comprehensively analyzed the role of tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and immune checkpoint blocking (ICB) treatment in ccRCC.
    Methods: To identify prognosis-related AS events, univariate Cox regression was used and functional annotation was performed using gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). In this study, prognostic signatures were developed based on multivariate Cox, univariate Cox, and LASSO regression models. Moreover, to assess the prognostic value, the proportional hazards model, Kruskal-Wallis analysis, and ROC curves were used. To obtain a better understanding of TIME in ccRCC, the ESTIMATE R package, single sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) algorithm, CIBERSORT method, and the tumor immune estimation resource (TIMER) were applied. The database was searched to verify the expression of
    Results: There were 9,347 AS cases associated with the survival of ccRCC patients screened. A total of eight AS prognostic signatures were developed with stable prognostic predictive accuracy based on splicing subtypes. In addition, a qualitative prognostic nomogram was developed, and the prognostic prediction showed high effectiveness. In addition, we found that the combined signature was significantly associated with the diversity of TIME and ICB treatment-related genes.
    Conclusion: We found novel and robust indicators (i.e., risk signature, prognostic nomogram, etc.) for the prognostic prediction of ccRCC. A new and reliable prognostic nomogram was established to quantitatively predict the clinical outcome. The AS-SF networks could provide a new way for the study of potential regulatory mechanisms, and the important roles of AS events in the context of TIME and immunotherapy efficiency were exhibited.

    Abstract Objectives: The sarcopenia (SI) index, defined as the serum creatinine to cystatin C ratio, is considered a predictor of poor muscle health and malnutrition, which is related to major adverse cardiovascular events. However, the effect of the SI index on cognitive function in stroke patients remains unknown. In this study, we aimed to examine the association between the SI and longitudinal cognitive impairment in patients with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
    Research design and methods: Participants who met the inclusion criteria in this national, multicenter, prospective cohort study were enrolled from the Impairment of Cognition and Sleep (ICONS) study of the China National Stroke Registry-3 (CNSR-3). They were categorized into four groups according to the quartile of the SI index. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models were performed to evaluate the association between the SI index and post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) at the 3-month follow-up. Moreover, discrimination tests were used to evaluate the incremental predictive value of the SI index beyond the potential risk factors. Furthermore, we performed subgroup analyses to test interactions.
    Results: Among the enrolled participants, the lower the SI index was, the worse the cognitive performance. At the 3-month follow-up, participants in the lowest SI quartile group exhibited a 42% increase in the risk of cognitive impairment relative to the highest quartile group [OR 0.58 (95% CI 0.37-0.90)]. Moreover, after applying the discrimination test, adding the SI index into the potential risk factors resulted in a slight improvement in predicting the risk of cognitive impairment [NRI 14% (P = 0.01)].
    Conclusion: This study demonstrated that a lower sarcopenia index was positively associated with a higher prevalence of PSCI. Monitoring the SI index in stroke patients and early identification and treatment of individuals with low SI level may be helpful to reduce the risk of cognitive impairment.
