    Abstract Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable B-cell malignancy, but with the emergence of immunotherapy, a potential cure is hopeful. The individualized interaction between the tumor and bone marrow (BM) microenvironment determines the response to immunotherapy. Angiogenesis is a constant hallmark of the BM microenvironment in MM. However, little is known about the potency ability of angiogenesis-associated genes (AAGs) to regulate the immune microenvironment of MM patients.
    Methods: We comprehensively dissected the associations between angiogenesis and genomic landscapes, prognosis, and the immune microenvironment by integrating 36 AAGs. Immunohistochemistry was performed to verify the correlation between angiogenic factor expression and patient prognosis. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis was applied to quantify the relative abundance of 28 infiltrating cells. The AAG score was constructed using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression model.
    Results: Angiogenesis was closely correlated with MM patient prognosis, and the mutation intensity of the AAGs was low. Immunohistochemistry confirmed that high microvessel density predicted poor prognosis. Three AAG clusters and two gene clusters with distinct clinical outcomes and immune characteristics were identified. The established AAG_score model performed well in predicting patient prognosis and active immunotherapy response. The high-AAG_score subgroup was characterized by reduced immune cell infiltration, poor prognosis, and inactive immunotherapy response. Multivariate analyses indicated that the AAG_score was strongly robust and independent among the prognostic variables.
    Conclusion: This study revealed that angiogenesis is significantly related to MM patient prognosis and immune phenotype. Evaluating the AAG signature was conducive to predicting patient response to immunotherapy and guiding more efficacious immunotherapy strategies.

    Abstract Background: Orthodontic tooth movement mainly depends on biological and mechanical reactions in the periodontium, such as the indispensable reconstruction process of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. To explore whether orthodontic compressive force can induce bone resorption during orthodontic tooth movement by regulating the GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway.
    Methods: We established orthodontic tooth movement models in Sprague-Dawley rats. In addition, compressive force-induced bone resorption that occurred during orthodontic tooth movement was analyzed by HE staining and micro-CT. The number and distribution of osteoclasts were observed by TRAP staining. Furthermore, pressure-induced bone resorption mediated by the GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling pathway was analyzed by immunohistochemistry.
    Results: As shown by the micro-CT results, bone parameters, such as bone mineral density (BMD), the bone volume fraction (BV/TV), and trabecular thickness (Tb. Th), were significantly decreased under orthodontic compressive force stimulation, in contrast with the dramatically increased trabecular spacing (Tb. Sp). During the process of tooth movement, the compressive force can induce bone resorption on the side with the force, which increases the expression of phosphorylated Ser-GSK-3β and activation of the β-catenin signaling pathway. Additionally, downregulation of the GSK-3β activity further caused the downregulation of bone parameters, leading to bone loss. The TRAP staining and immunohistochemistry staining results indicated that orthodontic compressive force influenced osteoclast formation and the secretion of osteoclast-related cytokines, matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligands (RANKLs), which is also related to the duration of orthodontic force.
    Conclusions: These results indicated that the GSK-3β inhibitor can promote osteoclast formation on the side with orthodontic compressive force. In addition, the activation of the GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling pathway contributes to bone reconstruction caused by orthodontic compressive force. Therefore, the GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling pathway can be a potential target for further clinical applications.

    Abstract Multiple myeloma bone disease is the most common complication of multiple myeloma, which mutually promotes the progression of multiple myeloma, severely affects patients' survival quality and prognosis. Recently, many studies revealed that non-coding RNAs play an important role in the imbalance of bone remodeling by regulating gene expression and participating in various signaling pathways. Additionally, most bone lesions fail to heal even when myeloma patients are in complete remission due to the sustained suppression of osteoblast activity, while non-coding RNAs may become a novel research field and clinical intervention targets. In this review, the latest research advances of non-coding RNAs which affect the occurrence and progress of multiple myeloma bone disease are summarized briefly.

    Abstract Vascular aging is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the elderly population. Endothelial cells (ECs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), forming the intima and media layers of the vessel wall respectively, are closely associated with the process of vascular aging and vascular aging-related diseases. Numerous studies have revealed the pathophysiologic mechanism through which lncRNA contributes to vascular aging, hence more attention is now paid to the role played by antisense long non-coding RNA (AS-lncRNA) in the pathogenesis of vascular aging. Nonetheless, only a small number of studies focus on the specific mechanism through which AS-lncRNA mediates vascular aging. In this review, we summarize the roles and functions of AS-lncRNA with regards to the development of vascular aging and vascular aging-related disease. We also aim to deepen our understanding of this process and provide alternative therapeutic modalities for vascular aging-related diseases.

    Abstract The present study investigated, the anti-apoptotic activity of Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) via inhibition of Bax translocation and the subsequent recovery of hematopoietic function. Mitochondrial apoptosis in bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMNCs) was observed in aplastic anemia (AA) patients. To establish a mouse model of AA, BALB/c mice were transplanted with lymph node cells from DBA/2 donor mice via vein injection after treatment with Co60 γ-radiation. After treatment with Rg1 for 14 days, the peripheral blood and Lin-Sca-1 + c-Kit + (LSK) cell counts of the treated group were increased compared with those of the untreated model mice. In in vivo and in vitro tests of LSKs, Rg1 was found to increase mitochondrial number and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax and to decrease damage to the mitochondrial inner and outer membranes, the mitochondrial Bax level and the protein levels of mitochondrial apoptosis-related proteins AIF and Cyt-C by decreasing the ROS level. Rg1 also improved the concentration-time curve of MAO and COX and levels of ATP, ADP and AMP in an in vitro test. In addition, high levels of Bax mitochondrial translocation could be corrected by Rg1 treatment. Levels of markers of mitochondrial apoptosis in the Rg1-treated group were significantly better than those in the AA model group, implying that Rg1 might improve hematopoietic stem cells and thereby restore hematopoietic function in AA by suppressing the mitochondrial apoptosis mediated by Bax translocation.

    Abstract Some non-coding RNAs (ncRNA), as functional RNA molecules, lack potential to encode proteins, but can affect gene expression and disease progression through a variety of mechanisms. In multiple myeloma (MM), cardiovascular disease is one of the most common complications, which may be related to a variety of factors, including patient's own factors, disease-related factors, drug factors, etc. Non-coding RNA is considered to be an important regulator of cardiovascular event risk factors and cell function, and an important candidate target for improving the condition and prognostic assessment. This article briefly summarized the role of non-coding RNA in cardiac amyloidosis caused by MM, damage to the heart by inflammatory factors, and heart disease caused by chemotherapy drugs in recent years.

    Abstract Several genes associated with periodontitis have been identified through genome-wide association studies (GWAS); however, known genes only explain a minority of the estimated heritability. We aimed to explore more susceptibility genes and the underlying mechanisms of periodontitis. Firstly, a genome-wide meta-analysis of 38,532 patients and 316,185 healthy controls was performed. Then, cross- and single-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) were conducted based on GWAS summary statistics and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Risk genes were evaluated to determine if they were differentially expressed in periodontitis sites compared with unaffected sites using public datasets. Finally, gene co-expression network analysis was conducted to identify the functional biology of the susceptible genes.

    Abstract Acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease is a refractory disease which can affect implantation and become a threat to life in severe cases. Autophagy is an intracellular degradation pathway necessary for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. In recent years, a large number of studies have found that it is closely related to the pathogenesis and process of acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease. The main mechanisms may involve that inflammatory factor storm after pretreatment and infusion of donor cells induces disordered intestinal immune tolerance, and abnormal oxidative stress damages intestinal mucosal barrier, leading to intestinal rejection of acute graft-versus-host disease via mTOR signal pathway of autophagy, disordered mitophagy and other related pathways.
