  5. Article: Heart-rate-based prediction of velocity at lactate threshold in ordinary adults.

    Shen, Tonghui / Wen, Xu

    Abstract Background: Velocity lactate threshold (VLT) is commonly used as a standard for exercise intensity, although previous studies of VLT have focused mostly on well-trained athletes. Heart rate (HR) is an important physiological index which is easy to measure, the heart rate-workload relationship curve is the reported coincidence with lactate threshold (LT). This study aimed to develop valid, simple and economical velocity at lactate threshold prediction methods for general Chinese adults.
    Methods: Eighty-four Chinese adults (49 males and 35 females aged 27.1 ± 8.3 years) were recruited to perform a graded exercise test on a treadmill. A 20-s rest time for the blood sample collection was set between each 3-min successive stage. Blood lactate concentration and heart rate (HR) were determined using a blood lactate analyser and HR monitors. Multiple linear regressions were applied to develop VLT prediction models using velocity at different HR levels, genders, BMI and ages as dependent variables.
    Results: Eight VLT prediction models were established, in which 47%-65% of variance of VLT could be explained. The results of the paired t-tests showed no significant difference can be observed between estimated and measured VLTs.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, simple and convenient VLT prediction models were established, and the models are valid in predicting VLT for general population.

    Abstract Background: Bladder cancer with high expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) is related to pathological malignancy and poor prognosis. The standard care for muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer (MIBC) is neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy (RC) with pelvic lymph node dissection. For HER2-positive MIBC, the efficacy of cisplatin-based NAC is unsatisfactory, and adverse reactions are inevitable or even intolerable. New regimens with higher efficiency and lower toxicity need to be explored in the neoadjuvant setting for this population.
    Methods: HOPE-03 is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm, phase Ib/II study aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RC48-ADC (disitamab vedotin (DV)), a humanized anti-HER2 antibody conjugated with monomethyl auristatin E, and tislelizumab (PD-1 antibody) as a novel neoadjuvant treatment combination in patients with HER2-positive locally advanced urothelial MIBC. Fifty-one patients with cT2-4bN0-3M0-1a pathology- and imaging-diagnosed HER2 positive (immunohistochemistry status 3+ or 2+ or 1+) MIBC were recruited. Of these patients, six were enrolled in the dose-escalation phase (three patients in the RC48-ADC 1.5 mg/kg group and three patients in the 2.0 mg/kg group), and 45 patients were enrolled in the phase II study (the expected recommended phase II dose for RC48-ADC was 2.0 mg/kg). Patients without disease progression received radical cystectomy or bladder-sparing therapies as their preference after neoadjuvant treatment. The primary endpoints were clinical complete remission rate (cCR rate; T0/Ta/Tis), pathological complete remission rate (pCR rate), and safety. The secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), and quality of life.
    Discussion: The HOPE-03 trial provides a description of the safety profile of RC-48 and tislelizumab combination in the neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive locally advanced urothelial MIBC, and the efficacy is explored as well in this population.

    Abstract We used 10 × genomics single-cell transcriptome sequencing technology to reveal the tumor immune microenvironment characteristics of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) in a patient with malignant pleural effusion (MPE). A total of 8008 high-quality cells were finally obtained for subsequent bioinformatic analysis, which were divided into 10 cell clusters further identified as B cells, T cells, myeloid cells, NK cells, and cancer cells. Such SCLC related genes as NOTCH1, MYC, TSC22D1, SOX4, BLNK, YBX3, VIM, CD8A, CD8B, and KLF6 were expressed in different degrees during differentiation of T and B cells. Different ligands and receptors between T, B and tumor cells almost interact through MHC II, IL-16, galectin, and APP signaling pathway.

    Abstract: ... with programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) in binding to the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) on T cells, PD-L2 ...

    Abstract Programmed cell death 1 ligand 2 (PD-L2), a member of the B7 immune checkpoint protein family, emerges as a crucial player in immune modulation. Despite its functional overlap with programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) in binding to the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) on T cells, PD-L2 exhibits a divergent expression pattern and a higher affinity for PD-1. However, the regulatory mechanisms of PD-L2 remain under-explored. Here, our investigations illustrate the pivotal role of cholesterol in modulating PD-L2 stability. Using advanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and biochemical analyses, we demonstrate a direct and specific binding between cholesterol and PD-L2, mediated by an F-xxx-V-xx-LR motif in its transmembrane domain, distinct from that in PD-L1. This interaction stabilizes PD-L2 and prevents its downstream degradation. Disruption of this binding motif compromises PD-L2's cellular stability, underscoring its potential significance in cancer biology. These findings not only deepen our understanding of PD-L2 regulation in the context of tumors, but also open avenues for potential therapeutic interventions.

    Abstract GABA is a health-promoting bioactive substance. Here, the GABA biosynthetic pathways were investigated, and then the dynamic quantitative changes in GABA and the expression levels of genes related to GABA metabolism under heat stress or at different developmental stages of fruiting bodies in Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq. ex Fr.) P. Kumm were determined. We found that the polyamine degradation pathway was the main route of GABA production under growth normal condition. The accumulation of GABA and the expression of most genes related to GABA biosynthesis, including genes encoding glutamate decarboxylase (PoGAD-2), polyamine oxidase (PoPAO-1), diamine oxidase (PoDAO) and aminoaldehyde dehydrogenase (PoAMADH-1 and PoAMADH-2), were significantly suppressed by heat stress and the excessive maturity of fruiting bodies. Finally, the effects of GABA on the mycelial growth, heat tolerance and the morphogenesis and development of fruiting bodies were studied, the results showed that the deficiency of endogenous GABA inhibited the mycelial growth and primordial formation and aggravated heat damage, whereas exogenous application of GABA could improve thermotolerance and promote the development of fruiting bodies.
