    Abstract Oncolytic viruses (OVs) have attracted growing awareness in the twenty-first century, as they are generally considered to have direct oncolysis and cancer immune effects. With the progress in genetic engineering technology, OVs have been adopted as versatile platforms for developing novel antitumor strategies, used alone or in combination with other therapies. Recent studies have yielded eye-catching results that delineate the promising clinical outcomes that OVs would bring about in the future. In this review, we summarized the basic principles of OVs in terms of their classifications, as well as the recent advances in OV-modification strategies based on their characteristics, biofunctions, and cancer hallmarks. Candidate OVs are expected to be designed as "qualified soldiers" first by improving target fidelity and safety, and then equipped with "cold weapons" for a proper cytocidal effect, "hot weapons" capable of activating cancer immunotherapy, or "auxiliary weapons" by harnessing tactics such as anti-angiogenesis, reversed metabolic reprogramming and decomposing extracellular matrix around tumors. Combinations with other cancer therapeutic agents have also been elaborated to show encouraging antitumor effects. Robust results from clinical trials using OV as a treatment congruously suggested its significance in future application directions and challenges in developing OVs as novel weapons for tactical decisions in cancer treatment.

    Abstract Background: With advances in medicine, there have been more and more ways to treat renal calculi in recent years. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a safe and effective treatment. The purpose of this paper is to study the efficacy and safety of PCNL combined with negative pressure suction in the treatment of renal calculi by meta-analysis.
    Methods: The PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Chinese Journal Full-Text Database, VIP, Wanfang Science and Technology Journal Full-Text Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Search databases were searched for articles related to the efficacy and safety of PCNL combined with negative pressure suction in the treatment of renal calculi from the establishment of the databases to October 2021. Endnote X9 software was first used to check and eliminate the articles, and the quality of the included articles were evaluated according to the risk of bias tool of Cochrane Collaboration. Stata 15.1 software was used to record the data. A meta-analysis was performed on the stone clearance rate, operation time, postoperative complications, postoperative fever, septic shock, intrapelvic pressure, and blood loss of PCNL combined with negative pressure suction in the treatment of renal calculi. The reliability of the results was assessed by a sensitivity analysis. Egger's linear test was used to test the publication bias of the articles.
    Results: A total of 10 articles were included in the meta-analysis, and the total sample size of the study was 820. The meta-analysis showed that when PCNL combined with negative pressure suction was used to treat renal calculi, the stone clearance rate and the occurrence of septic shock of the test group did not differ significantly from that of the control group; the incidence rate of postoperative complications、the operation time, the intraoperative bleeding and the postoperative fever of the test group was significantly better than that of the control group.
    Discussion: Compared to the group without negative pressure, PCNL reduces the operation time, postoperative complications, postoperative fever, septic shock, and intraoperative blood loss without increasing the risk of septic shock.

    Abstract Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) proteins are a family of signaling molecules that function downstream of multiple receptor signaling pathways, and they play a pivotal role in the regulation of intracellular biological progresses. These TRAF-dependent signaling pathways and physiological functions have been involved in the occurrence and progression of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which is a common pathophysiological process that occurs in a wide variety of clinical events, including ischemic shock, organ transplantation, and thrombolytic therapy, resulting in a poor prognosis and high mortality. IRI occurs in multiple organs, including liver, kidney, heart, lung, brain, intestine, and retina. In recent years, mounting compelling evidence has confirmed that the genetic alterations of TRAFs can cause subversive phenotype changes during IRI of those organs. In this review, based on current knowledge, we summarized and analyzed the regulatory effect of TRAFs on the IRI of various organs, providing clear direction and a firm theoretical basis for the development of treatment strategies to manipulate TRAF proteins or TRAF-dependent signaling pathways in IRI-related diseases.

    Abstract Background: Over the past decade, there has been a significant increase in research on the use of mobile health (mHealth) apps as disease management tools. However, very few apps are currently available for prostate cancer (PCa) patient management, and the available apps do not combine the needs of physicians with the requirements of patients. This study aimed to describe the development of a mHealth application for PCa survivors called RyPros, which includes dynamic visualization, intelligent reminders, and instant messaging to support decision-making regarding treatment and follow-up and test the initial accessibility and acceptability application.
    Methods: The application was developed through a three-step procedure: logical structure design, application programming, and testing. Dynamic visualization, intelligent reminders, and instant messaging were the core functions of RyPros. Twenty-eight participants who had PCa were enrolled in four weeks of follow-up using the RyPros App. We initially evaluated participants' acceptance of RyPros based on their use of the app (login data, questionnaire completion) and a satisfaction survey.
    Results: We successfully designed and tested the application. A total of 32 participants were enrolled, of whom 28 completed the 4-week follow-up, yielding a participation rate of 87.5%. Each participant logged on an average of 2.82 times and achieved an average of 0.89 questionnaires per week over the four weeks. Most participants (64%) liked the app, and most participants (71%) were satisfied, giving the RyPros app a rating of 4 or 5. More than half of the participants (61%) intended to use the RyPros app regularly, and the majority of participants agreed that the three core functionalities of RyPros were helpful (20/28, 71% for instant messaging; 16/28, 57% for visualization; and 18/28, 64% for reminders and assessments).
    Conclusions: The mHealth application we developed for PCa survivor management provided dynamic visualization, reminders, assessments, and instant messaging to support decision-making based on multidisciplinary collaboration. PCa survivors showed high acceptance of the RyPros app.

    Abstract Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is a typical complete carcinogen in tobacco, but its mechanism of inducing the development of chronic pneumonia and consequent lung cancer is unclear. Here we elucidated the role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in developing B[a]P-induced chronic lung inflammation and efficacy of immunotherapy in preventing subsequent malignant transformation. Our study showed that as B[a]P could induce the accumulation of MDSCs in lung tissues and enhance the immunosuppressive effect regulated by cytokines and metabolites, thereby promoting the formation of immunosuppressive microenvironment, where effector T cells were exhausted, NK cells were dysfunctional, regulatory T (Treg) cells were expanded, polarized alveolar macrophages were transformed from M1 to M2. Subsequently, we performed the immunotherapy to block TNFɑ only or both TNFɑ and PD-1 at the early- or middle-stage of B[a]P-induced chronic lung inflammation to ameliorate the immunosuppressive microenvironment. We found that TNFɑ antagonist alone or with PD-1 blocker was shown to exert therapeutic effects on malignant transformation at the early stage of B[a]P-induced chronic lung inflammation. Taken together, our findings demonstrated that B[a]P-induced chronic lung inflammation resulted in the accumulation of MDSCs in lung tissues and exercise their immunosuppressive functions, thereby developing an immunosuppressive microenvironment, thus TNFɑ antagonist alone or with PD-1 blocker could prevent or retard the malignant transformation of B[a]P-induced chronic lung inflammation.

    Abstract Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is harmful to patients following kidney transplantation. Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) can be adopted to preserve grafts and reduce consequential injury. We hypothesized that aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) partly mitigates kidney IRI via regulating excessive autophagy in HMP. The rabbits were assigned to 5 groups: Normal, HMP, HMP + Alda-1, HMP + CYA and cold storage (CS). After the rabbit autologous kidney transplantation, renal pathology and function were evaluated by histological analysis, glomerular related proteins (desmin, nephrin), tubular injury factors (NGAL, Ki67), serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Oxidative stress molecular Malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD2) expression, as well as inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10) were assessed by immunohistochemistry. The expression of LC3, p62, ALDH2, p-Akt, mTOR, PTEN, p-PTEN, and 4-HNE were measured by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, Western blot analysis or ELISA. HMP was more effective than CS for kidney preservation, with p- ALDH2 expressed in greater quantities in HMP. The results of kidney pathology and function in HMP + Alda-1 were the best. The MDA & SOD2 and the Vyacheslav score were improved in HMP + CYA. ALDH2 reduced 4-HNE-induced oxidative stress, inflammatory infiltration, the expression of LC3, p62 and inhibited autophagy accompanied by activation of p-Akt and mTOR via p-PTEN/PTEN. Akt-mTOR autophagy pathway is a novel target for ALDH2 to reduce renal IRI partly by inhibition of 4-HNE in HMP, then protecting the donated kidney received after cardiac death (DCD).

    Abstract The VG161 represents the first recombinant oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 carrying multiple synergistic antitumor immuno-modulating factors. Here, we report its antitumor mechanisms and thus provide firm theoretical foundation for the upcoming clinical application in pancreatic cancer. Generally, the VG161-mediated antitumor outcomes were analyzed by a collaboration of techniques, namely the single-cell sequencing, airflow-assisted desorption electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (AFADSI-MSI) and nanostring techniques. In vitro, the efficacy of VG161 together with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been successfully shown to grant a long-term antitumor effect by altering tumor immunity and remodeling tumor microenvironment (TME) metabolisms. Cellular functional pathways and cell subtypes detected from patient samples before and after the treatment had undergone distinctive changes including upregulated CD8+ T and natural killer cells. More importantly, significant antitumor signals have emerged since the administration of VG161 injection. In conclusion, VG161 can systematically activate acquired and innate immunity in pancreatic models, as well as improve the tumor immune microenvironment, indicative of strong antitumor potential. The more robusting antitumor outcome for VG161 monotherapy or in combination with other therapies on pancreatic cancer is worth of being explored in further clinical trials.
