    Abstract Background: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a prevalent and serious complication of diabetes mellitus, impacting the nerves in the limbs and leading to symptoms like pain, numbness, and diminished function. While the exact molecular and immune mechanisms underlying DPN remain incompletely understood, recent findings indicate that mitochondrial dysfunction may play a role in the advancement of this diabetic condition.
    Methods: Two RNA transcriptome datasets (codes: GSE185011 and GSE95849), comprising samples from diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) patients and healthy controls (HC), were retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database hosted by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). Subsequently, differential expression analysis and gene set enrichment analysis were performed. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed to pinpoint key hub genes associated with DPN, with a specific emphasis on genes related to mitochondria and peripheral neuropathy disease (PND) that displayed differential expression. Additionally, the study estimated the levels of immune cell infiltration in both the HC and DPN samples. To validate the findings, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was employed to confirm the differential expression of selected genes in the DPN samples.
    Results: This research identifies four hub genes associated mitochondria or PN. Furthermore, the analysis revealed increased immune cell infiltration in DPN tissues, particularly notable for macrophages and T cells. Additionally, our investigation identified potential drug candidates capable of regulating the expression of the four hub genes. These findings were corroborated by qPCR results, reinforcing the credibility of our bioinformatics analysis.
    Conclusions: This study provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular and immunological characteristics of DPN, based on both bioinformatics and experimental methods.

    Abstract Objective: This study aimed to develop and evaluate an anti-angiogenesis-based model for predicting the survival and the potential benefits of targeted therapy for patients with localized advanced cervical cancer.
    Methods: We collected clinical data from 163 patients with cervical cancer who received paclitaxel and cisplatin (TP) or TP plus bevacizumab during or after radiotherapy from June 2017 to February 2023. We analyzed the clinical measures of recent efficacy and overall survival (OS) using univariate and logistic multivariate and Cox regression methods, respectively. We constructed a nomogram model and evaluated its efficacy using the c-index, the area under the curve (AUC), a calibration curve, and the clinical decision curve (DCA).
    Results: We found that targeted agents and hemoglobin were independent determinants of near-term efficacy (P < 0.05), while targeted agents and stage were independent factors of OS (P < 0.05). We developed a predictive model for an OS prognostic nomogram and performed internal validation 1000 times using the Bootstrap re-sampling method. The c-index was 0.81, and the AUC was 0.84 (P < 0.01).The calibration curves showed a good agreement between the projected and actual values. The DCA curve indicated that the model had a high positive predictive accuracy.
    Conclusion: We developed a novel anti-angiogenesis-based survival prediction model for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. This model could estimate the benefit of targeted therapy before treatment, and it had good validation.

    Abstract Purpose: Construction of a nomogram model based on Thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) in combination with inflammatory indicators and tumor markers to predict the probability of recurrence in mid- to late-stage cervical cancer.
    Methods: One hundred fourteen instances of intermediate and advanced cervical cancer admitted to our hospital's radiotherapy department between June 2017 and January 2023 were retrospectively studied. Logistic regression analysis includes variables relevant for univariate analysis. Meaningful indications from multifactor analysis were included in the nomogram model, the model's correctness was evaluated using the C-index, and the model's effectiveness was assessed using calibration curves, clinical decision curves, and clinical impact curves.
    Results: A nomogram model was created due to the logit regression analysis that revealed the squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) and TK1 as independent recurrence predictors following cervical cancer radiation (P<0.05). The C index and Area Under the Curve (AUC) were 0.79 (95% CI 0.67-0.91). The AUC and C-index were both more extraordinary than those of TNM staging alone (C-index 0.57, 95% CI 0.43-0.71) and SCC alone (C-index 0.67, 95% CI 0.51-0.82). Calibration curves, Decision Curve Analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curves (CIC) indicate that the model predicts probabilities more accurately.
    Conclusion: The nomogram model based on TK1 combined with inflammatory markers and tumor markers is more reliable than the TNM staging and SCC systems alone for forecasting recurrence after radiotherapy in intermediate- and advanced-stage cervical cancer. It is also a cheap, practical, and simple-to-obtain model that can supplement the TNM staging system for forecasting prognosis and significantly enhances clinicians' decision-making.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the feasibility of different thermosensitive composite hydrogels from chitosan derivatives as scaffold materials for periodontal tissue engineering.
    Methods: Three chitosan derivatives with different biological characteristics were prepared, namely, sulfonated chitosan (SCS), phosphorylated chitosan (PCS), and phosphorylated sulfonated chitosan (PSCS). Three thermosensitive composite hydrogels were constructed using basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), the chitosan derivatives, and collagen. Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, blank group, bFGF/SCS/collagen composite thermosensitive hydrogel group, bFGF/PCS/collagen compo-site thermosensitive hydrogel group, and bFGF/PSCS/collagen composite thermosensitive hydrogel group. Then, three-wall intrabony defects were established. The defects were treated with the different kinds of thermosensitive composite hydrogels. After 6 weeks of surgery, the animals were killed, and specimens were collected. Then, gross observation, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and Masson staining were performed.
    Results: The bFGF/chitosan derivatives/collagen composite thermosensitive hydrogel groups and the control group had statistical differences in the relative alveolar bone height, relative epithelial down growth and grading count score of periodontal tissue regeneration (
    Conclusions: bFGF/chitosan derivatives/collagen composite thermosensitive hydrogels have good application prospects in periodontal tissue engineering.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the effects of different selective sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on hemoglobin and hematocrit in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with a network meta-analysis (NMA).
    Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on SGLT2i for patients with T2DM were searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception of these databases to July 1, 2023. The risk of bias (RoB) tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and R software was adopted for data analysis.
    Results: Twenty-two articles were included, involving a total of 14,001 T2DM patients. SGLT2i included empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and canagliflozin. The NMA results showed that compared with placebo, canagliflozin 100mg, canagliflozin 300mg, dapagliflozin 10mg, dapagliflozin 2mg, dapagliflozin 50mg, dapagliflozin 5mg, empagliflozin 25mg, and dapagliflozin 20mg increased hematocrit in patients with T2DM, while canagliflozin 100mg, canagliflozin 200mg, canagliflozin 300mg increased hemoglobin in patients with T2DM. In addition, the NMA results indicated that canagliflozin 100mg had the best effect on the improvement of hematocrit, and canagliflozin 200mg had the best effect on the improvement of hemoglobin.
    Conclusion: Based on the existing studies, we concluded that SGLT2i could increase hematocrit and hemoglobin levels in patients with T2DM, and canagliflozin 100mg had the best effect on the improvement of hematocrit, while canagliflozin 200mg had the best effect on the improvement of hemoglobin.

    Abstract Background: Patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) have a progressive disease that is associated with poor quality of life and high mortality. Many patients experience anxiety and depression (A&D) symptoms, which can further accelerate disease progression. We hypothesized that indicators of myocardial function and inflammatory stress may reflect the severity of A&D symptoms in patients with CHF. Changes in these biomarkers could potentially predict whether A&D symptoms will deteriorate further in these individuals.
    Aim: To measure changes in cardiac and inflammatory markers in patients with CHF to determine A&D severity and predict outcomes.
    Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 233 patients with CHF treated at the Jingzhou Hospital, Yangtze University between 2018-2022 and grouped them according to Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores. We compared clinical data in the no-A&D, mild-A&D, moderate-A&D, and severe-A&D groups, the SAS and SDS scores with the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification, and cardiac markers and inflammatory factors between the no/mild-A&D and moderate/severe-A&D groups. Regression analysis was performed on the markers with
    Results: In the inter-group comparison, the following variables had an effect on A&D severity in patients with CHF: NYHA class, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (
    Conclusion: Cardiac and inflammatory biomarkers, such as LVEF, NT-proBNP, and IL-6, are correlated with A&D severity in patients with CHF and have predictive value.

    Abstract Background: The senescence of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) is crucial in the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Accumulating evidence suggests a close association between insufficient mitophagy and RTEC senescence. Yeast mitochondrial escape 1-like 1 (YME1L), an inner mitochondrial membrane metalloprotease, maintains mitochondrial integrity. Its functions in DKD remain unclear. Here, we investigated whether YME1L can prevent the progression of DKD by regulating mitophagy and cellular senescence.
    Methods: We analyzed YME1L expression in renal tubules of DKD patients and mice, explored transcriptomic changes associated with YME1L overexpression in RTECs, and assessed its impact on RTEC senescence and renal dysfunction using an HFD/STZ-induced DKD mouse model. Tubule-specific overexpression of YME1L was achieved through the use of recombinant adeno-associated virus 2/9 (rAAV 2/9). We conducted both in vivo and in vitro experiments to evaluate the effects of YME1L overexpression on mitophagy and mitochondrial function. Furthermore, we performed LC-MS/MS analysis to identify potential protein interactions involving YME1L and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
    Results: Our findings revealed a significant decrease in YME1L expression in the renal tubules of DKD patients and mice. However, tubule-specific overexpression of YME1L significantly alleviated RTEC senescence and renal dysfunction in the HFD/STZ-induced DKD mouse model. Moreover, YME1L overexpression exhibited positive effects on enhancing mitophagy and improving mitochondrial function both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, our LC-MS/MS analysis uncovered a crucial mitophagy receptor, BCL2-like 13 (BCL2L13), as an interacting partner of YME1L. Furthermore, YME1L was found to promote the phosphorylation of BCL2L13, highlighting its role in regulating mitophagy.
    Conclusions: This study provides compelling evidence that YME1L plays a critical role in protecting RTECs from cellular senescence and impeding the progression of DKD. Overexpression of YME1L demonstrated significant therapeutic potential by ameliorating both RTEC senescence and renal dysfunction in the DKD mice. Moreover, our findings indicate that YME1L enhances mitophagy and improves mitochondrial function, potentially through its interaction with BCL2L13 and subsequent phosphorylation. These novel insights into the protective mechanisms of YME1L offer a promising strategy for developing therapies targeting DKD.

    Abstract Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common complication of diabetes that is clinically characterized by progressive albuminuria due to glomerular destruction. The etiology of DKD is multifactorial, and numerous studies have demonstrated that cellular senescence plays a significant role in its pathogenesis, but the specific mechanism requires further investigation.
    Methods: This study utilized 5 datasets comprising 144 renal samples from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. We obtained cellular senescence-related pathways from the Molecular Signatures Database and evaluated the activity of senescence pathways in DKD patients using the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) algorithm. Furthermore, we identified module genes related to cellular senescence pathways through Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) algorithm and used machine learning algorithms to screen for hub genes related to senescence. Subsequently, we constructed a cellular senescence-related signature (SRS) risk score based on hub genes using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), and verified mRNA levels of hub genes by RT-PCR in vivo. Finally, we validated the relationship between the SRS risk score and kidney function, as well as their association with mitochondrial function and immune infiltration.
    Results: The activity of cellular senescence-related pathways was found to be elevated among DKD patients. Based on 5 hub genes (LIMA1, ZFP36, FOS, IGFBP6, CKB), a cellular senescence-related signature (SRS) was constructed and validated as a risk factor for renal function decline in DKD patients. Notably, patients with high SRS risk scores exhibited extensive inhibition of mitochondrial pathways and upregulation of immune cell infiltration.
    Conclusion: Collectively, our findings demonstrated that cellular senescence is involved in the process of DKD, providing a novel strategy for treating DKD.

    Abstract Background: The treatment and diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still a difficult problem in the medical community, and exploring the molecular mechanism of the occurrence and development of NSCLC is a hot topic of the current research. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NORAD is highly expressed in a variety of cancer cells. It may be a molecular target that promotes NSCLC. The aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of lncRNA NORAD on the proliferation, apoptosis, and chemosensitivity of NSCLC by regulating zinc finger protein 217 (ZNF217) through miR-199a-3p.
    Methods: Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) method was applied to detect the expressions of NORAD, miR-199a-3p and ZNF217 genes in normal lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B, lung cancer H460 cells, and Cisplatin (DDP) resistant cell lines H460/DDP. H460/DDP cells were devided into control group, si-NC group, si-NORAD group, miR-NC group, miR-199a-3p mimic group, si-NORAD+inhibitor NC group and si-NORAD+miR-199a-3p inhibitor group. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, the expression of NORAD, miR-199a-3p and ZNF217 genes of cells in each group were detected and the expression levels of Ki-67, caspase-9 and ZNF217 proteins in different cells were also observed. The relationship between miR-199a-3p, NORAD and ZNF217 was vefified.
    Results: Compared with BEAS-2B cells, the expressions of NORAD, ZNF217 mRNA were significantly increased in H460 and H460/DDP cells (P<0.05) but the expression of miR-199a-3p was significantly reduced (P<0.05). Compared with H460 cells, the expression of NORAD and ZNF217 mRNA in H460/DDP cells was significantly increased (P<0.05) and the expression of miR-199a-3p was significantly reduced (P<0.05). Compared with the control group and si-NC group, the proliferation rate, NORAD and ZNF217 mRNA expression, Ki-67 and ZNF217 protein expression of H460/DDP cells in the si-NORAD group were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate, miR-199a-3p expression and caspase-9 expression were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the miR-NC group, the proliferation rate, NORAD and ZNF217 mRNA expression, Ki-67 and ZNF217 protein expression of H460/DDP cells in the miR-199a-3p mimic group were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate, miR-199a-3p expression and caspase-9 expression were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the si-NORAD+inhibitor NC group, the proliferation rate, ZNF217 mRNA expression, Ki-67 and ZNF217 protein expression of H460/DDP cells in the si-NORAD+miR-199a-3p inhibitor group were significantly increased (P<0.05), the apoptosis rate, miR-199a-3p expression and caspase-9 expression were obviously increased reduced (P<0.05).
    Conclusions: Down-regulating NORAD expression can enhance miR-199a-3p expression and inhibit ZNF217 expression, thereby inhibiting H460/DDP cell proliferation, promoting apoptosis and enhancing its DDP chemotherapy sensitivity.
