    Abstract Muscle relaxation induced by muscle relaxants is one of the important conditions for endotracheal intubation and fixation, but sometimes muscle functions recover incompletely after operations, which is called postoperative residual neuromuscular block (PRNB). It can cause a series of serious postoperative complications and even death. Hence, it is essential to prevent and treat PRNB in the early stage during anesthesia implementation. With the rapid development of surgical technology and the gradual extension of the life span of the population, the number of operations for elderly patients is gradually increasing. Meanwhile, due to the physiological and pathological changes of the elderly and the combined underlying diseases, the elderly are more likely to suffer from PRNB in different degrees after surgery, which seriously damages the prognosis of elderly patients and increases the loss of medical resources. In these years, the successful application of short-acting muscle relaxants, new antagonists (such as sugammadex), and multi-mode neuromuscular monitoring devices in clinical practice have greatly reduced the incidence of PRNB in elderly patients. Furthermore, the basic researches which mainly based on the neuromuscular junction structure and the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies of the elderly provide a new theoretical basis for reducing the harm of PRNB to elderly patients. This paper reviews the research progress of the mechanism, adverse events and clinical interventions of PRNB in elderly patients after general anesthesia surgeries to provide reference for muscle relaxation management and postoperative antagonism in these people.

    Abstract Advanced fabrics with thermal wet management capability as low energy consumption media contribute to personal cooling and drying. Nevertheless, it remains a great challenge to obtain intelligent fabrics with adjustable thermal conductivity (TC) capable of bridging the supply and demand between human body temperature and self-adaptive thermal conduction. Herein, we report hygroscopic-shrinkage nanofiber-based fabrics with excellent moisture sensitivity and significant volume shrinkage, which benefits the construction of high-density thermal conductive pathways by absorbing sweat, with a maximum sweat absorption rate reaching up to 1781%. The TC of the shrunken fabric is significantly increased from the initial 0.102 to 0.731 W·m

    Abstract Stem cells are critical for organism development and the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. Recent studies focusing on RNA editing have indicated how this mark controls stem cell fate and function in both normal and malignant states. RNA editing is mainly mediated by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1). The RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 converts adenosine in a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) substrate into inosine. ADAR1 is a multifunctional protein that regulate physiological processes including embryonic development, cell differentiation, and immune regulation, and even apply to the development of gene editing technologies. In this review, we summarize the structure and function of ADAR1 with a focus on how it can mediate distinct functions in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Targeting ADAR1 has emerged as a potential novel therapeutic strategy in both normal and dysregulated stem cell contexts.

    Abstract Objective To investigate the application value of liquid-based cytology, DNA ploidy and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in the diagnosis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Methods From January 2013 to June 2021, 246 cases with suspected UTUC on CT or MRI images in the Army Medical Center of PLA were recruited and retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 190 cases were pathologically diagnosed as UTUC, 43 cases non-tumor lesions, and 13 cases other types of tumors. All the 246 cases were examined with liquid-based cytology of voided urine, 178 cases were also with DNA ploidy analysis and 167 cases with FISH. The diagnostic accuracy of liquid-based cytology, DNA ploidy and FISH alone or in combination was calculated and compared. Results The sensitivities of liquid-based cytology, DNA ploidy and FISH in the diagnosis of UTUC were 44.7%, 82.2%, and 57.9%, respectively; the specificities were 97.7%, 82.4%, and 92.3%, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivities of the above 3 methods for high-grade UTUC were 48.1%, 87.7%, and 60.7%, respectively, and for low-grade UTUC 25.0%, 52.4%, and 37.5%, respectively. When any one of the 3 methods is positive, the diagnostic sensitivity was increased to 93.8% (compared with the 3 methods being used alone, all P < 0.05). When any 2 of them were positive at the same time as the criteria for diagnosing UTUC (both negative or only 1 positive was regarded as negative), the positive predictive value and specificity of this combined diagnostic method were both 100%. Conclusion Urinary liquid-based cytology, DNA ploidy and FISH all are clinically valuable in the diagnosis of UTUC. The combination of the 3 methods can effectively improve the sensitivity or specificity of diagnosis, thereby helping to reduce the risk of missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis.

    Abstract We report the case of a 48-year-old male who presented with right lower abdominal pain and a mass for 2 weeks and got constipation for 5 days. An abdominal CT scan conducted before admission at other hospitals revealed an obstruction in the blind ascending colon, which was suspected to be a malignant tumor. Proctoscopy revealed peritoneal implantation metastasis and multiple pelvic lymph nodes. Physical examination was unremarkable except for multiple lymph node enlargements in the inguinal area, without pain. A whole-body contrast-enhanced FDG-PET/CT revealed lymphoma involvement in the ascending colon, peritoneum, bone marrow, and lymph nodes in multiple regions of the body, with DLBCL as a suspected diagnosis. Pathological findings from the colonoscopy revealed atypical lymphocyte infiltration and Immunostaining indicated the presence of atypical lymphocytes with Ki-67 (90%) and tested positive for CD20, CD19, CD10, and BCL-6. Based on the above findings, stage IV DLBCL was diagnosed. Furthermore, EBV-DNA amplification was positive. The patient received R-CHOP treatment for 2 days before experiencing symptoms of fevers, chills, and abdominal pain. He underwent emergency surgery due to intestinal perforation, and preoperative blood tests revealed HIV-positive. The prognosis for the patient is poor due to sepsis.

    Abstract Macrophages are involved in almost every aspect of biological systems and include development, homeostasis and repair. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have good clinical application prospects due to their ability to regulate adaptive and innate immune cells, particularly macrophages, and they have been used successfully for many immune disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), acute lung injury, and wound healing, which have been reported as macrophage-mediated disorders. In the present review, we focus on the interaction between MSCs and macrophages and summarize their methods of interaction and communication, such as cell-to-cell contact, soluble factor secretion, and organelle transfer. In addition, we discuss the roles of MSC-macrophage crosstalk in the development of disease and maintenance of homeostasis of inflammatory microenvironments. Finally, we provide optimal strategies for applications in immune-related disease treatments.

    Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‑associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a serious threat to human health. Parthenolide (PAR) displays several important pharmacological activities, including the promotion of liver function recovery during hepatitis. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of PAR on MAFLD in a mouse model. Body weight, liver to body weight ratios, histological score, alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were determined to evaluate liver injury. Liver hydroxyproline concentrations were also assessed. The expression levels of lipid metabolism‑related genes (sterol regulatory element binding protein‑1c, fatty acid synthase, acetyl CoA carboxylase 1, stearoyl CoA desaturase 1 and carbohydrate response element‑binding protein, peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor α, carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1α and acyl‑CoA dehydrogenase short chain), liver fibrosis‑associated genes (α‑smooth muscle actin, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 and TGF‑β1), pro‑inflammatory cytokines (TNF‑α, IL‑1β and IL‑6) and oxidative stress‑associated enzymes (malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase) were measured in mice with MAFLD. The expression levels of genes associated with the HIPPO pathway were also measured.

    Abstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by acute diffuse inflammatory lung injury with a high mortality rate. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are pluripotent adult cells that can be extracted from a variety of tissues, including the lung. Lung-resident MSC (LR-MSC) located around vascular vessels and act as important regulators of lung homeostasis, regulating the balance between lung injury and repair processes. LR-MSC support the integrity of lung tissue by modulating immune responses and releasing trophic factors. Studies have reported that the STING pathway is involved in the progression of lung injury inflammation, but the specific mechanism is unclear. In this study, we found that STING deficiency could ameliorate lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced acute lung injury, STING knockout (STING KO) LR-MSC had an enhanced treatment effect on acute lung injury. STING depletion protected LR-MSC from LPS-induced apoptosis. RNA-sequencing and Western blot results showed that STING KO LR-MSC expressed higher levels of MSC immunoregulatory molecules, such as Igfbp4, Icam1, Hgf and Cox2, than WT LR-MSC. This study highlights that LR-MSC have a therapeutic role in acute lung injury, and we demonstrate that STING deficiency can enhance the immunomodulatory function of LR-MSC in controlling lung inflammation. Thus, STING can be used as an intervention target to enhance the therapeutic effect of MSC.
