    Abstract Breast cancer is the most common cancer type and the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality in women worldwide. In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have made significant progress in the treatment of breast cancer, yet there are still a considerable number of patients who are unable to gain lasting and ideal clinical benefits by immunotherapy alone, which leads to the development of a combination regimen as a novel research hotspot. Furthermore, one miRNA can target several checkpoint molecules, mimicking the therapeutic effect of a combined immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), which means that the miRNA therapy has been considered to increase the efficiency of ICIs. In this review, we summarized potential miRNA therapeutics candidates which can affect multiple targets of immune checkpoints in breast cancer with more therapeutic potential, and the obstacles to applying miRNA therapeutically through the analyses of the resources available from a drug target perspective. We also included the content of "too many targets for miRNA effect" (TMTME), combined with applying TargetScan database, to discuss adverse events. This review aims to ignite enthusiasm to explore the application of miRNAs with multiple targets of immune checkpoint molecules, in combination with ICIs for treating breast cancer.

    Abstract Tumor-derived exosome (TDE)-mediated premetastatic niche (PMN) formation is a potential mechanism underlying the organotropic metastasis of primary tumors. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has shown considerable success in preventing and treating tumor metastasis. However, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this review, we discussed PMN formation from the perspectives of TDE biogenesis, cargo sorting, and TDE recipient cell alterations, which are critical for metastatic outgrowth. We also reviewed the metastasis-preventive effects of TCM, which act by targeting the physicochemical materials and functional mediators of TDE biogenesis, regulating the cargo sorting machinery and secretory molecules in TDEs, and targeting the TDE-recipient cells involved in PMN formation.

    Abstract Dysregulated protein synthesis is a hallmark of tumors. mRNA translation reprogramming contributes to tumorigenesis, which is fueled by abnormalities in ribosome formation, tRNA abundance and modification, and translation factors. Not only malignant cells but also stromal cells within tumor microenvironment can undergo transformation toward tumorigenic phenotypes during translational reprogramming. Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) have garnered interests for their ability to selectively inhibit protein synthesis and suppress tumor growth. This review summarizes the role of dysregulated translation machinery in tumor development and explores the potential of RIPs in cancer treatment.

    Abstract Distorted allocation of capital factors will lead to the loss of capital market-based soil as the background support for green technology innovation, which will not be able to climb up the value chain and eventually become an economic “colony.” This study empirically investigates the relationship between distorted capital factor allocation and green technology innovation using data from 2005 to 2018 for prefecture-level cities in China. The empirical results show that the distortion of capital factor allocation not only has a significant inhibiting effect on green technology innovation in the city, but also hinders the development of green technology innovation in neighboring cities. Mechanism test analysis suggests that there is negative impact via generating mismatch, crowding out, and rent-seeking effects. Further research shows that the effect of distorted capital factor allocation on urban green technology innovation is more influential in the eastern and western regions. The conclusions of this study have important practical significance for optimizing the rational allocation of factor resources, promoting green technology innovation, and achieving high-quality economic growth.

    Abstract As the leading cause of cancer-related death, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) threatens human health and limited treatments are available to cure the disease efficiently and effectively. The particularly immunotolerant environment of the liver lowers the efficacy of current therapies in patients with advanced HCC. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gathering increasing interest due to the immunoregulatory properties of certain compounds. In advanced HCC, TCM can restore immunosurveillance to promote antitumor effects in several ways, including the upregulation of immunostimulatory factors and the downregulation of immunosuppressive factors. The characteristic multitarget regulation of TCM compounds may provide new insights regarding effective HCC immunotherapies. Here, we review the immunoregulatory potency of TCMs for treating HCC and explain how individual TCM drugs and complex formulas remodel the immune environment in various cell- and cytokine-dependent manners.

    Abstract Multilayer coatings induce a significant polarization aberration in optical systems with high numerical aperture (NA) and wide field of view, which will cause wavefront distortion and imaging degradation. Studies have used low-polarization coatings (LPC) design to reduce the coating-induced polarization aberration. However, the polarization aberration caused by LPC remain evident in systems with large incident angles and many coated surfaces. In this paper, a hybrid optimization algorithm (HOA) is proposed to enhance the design accuracy of LPC. Based on the HOA, a collaborative optimization method is developed to simultaneously design coatings with different polarization properties for multiple surfaces, which can correct polarization aberration by mutual compensation between the coated surfaces and other optical elements in a single system. Finally, a high NA lithographic lens is simulated as an example to verify the collaborative optimization method. The simulation demonstrates that this method is superior to conventional methods. This research provides a new way to correct the polarization aberration and is applicable to any systems coated with multilayer coatings.

    Abstract Invasion and metastasis are the main reasons for the high mortality of liver cancer, which involve the interaction of tumor stromal cells and malignant cells. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are one of the major constituents of tumor stromal cells affecting tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. The heterogeneous properties and sources of CAFs make both tumor-supporting and tumor-suppression effects possible. The mechanisms for CAFs in supporting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression can be categorized into upregulated aggressiveness and stemness, transformed metabolism toward glycolysis and glutamine reductive carboxylation, polarized tumor immunity toward immune escape of HCC cells, and increased angiogenesis. The tumor-suppressive effect of fibroblasts highlights the functional heterogenicity of CAF populations and provides new insights into tumor-stromal interplay mechanisms. In this review, we introduced several key inflammatory signaling pathways in the transformation of CAFs from normal stromal cells and the heterogeneous biofunctions of activated CAFs. In view of the pleiotropic regulation properties of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and heterogeneous effects of CAFs, we also introduced the application and values of TCM in the treatment of HCC through targeting CAFs.

    Abstract Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is indispensable to reveal the cellular nanostructure of the 2:17-type Sm-Co based magnets which act as the first choice for high-temperature magnet-associated devices. However, structural deficiencies could be introduced into the TEM specimen during the ion milling process, which would provide misleading information to understand the microstructure-property relationship of such magnets. In this work, we performed a comparative investigation of the microstructure and microchemistry between two TEM specimens prepared under different ion milling conditions in a model commercial magnet Sm
