    Abstract Metastasis is the primary cause of death in lung cancer patients. However, until now, effective drugs and intervention strategies for treating lung cancer metastasis have been lacking. This hypothesis focuses on circulating tumour cells (CTCs) to develop a new antimetastatic therapeutic strategy for lung cancer. Here, we outline the role of CTCs in tumour metastasis and their functional effects during the treatment of lung cancer patients. Additionally, we hypothesized the possibility of CTCs as a novel biomarker and therapeutic target in preventing and treating metastasis in patients with early-stage lung cancer. We hope that the realization of this hypothesis will improve the overall survival of lung cancer.

    Abstract The X chromosome/autosome ratio has been widely used to profile XCU at the chromosomal level. However, this approach overlooks features of inside genes. Here, we present a computational protocol for the identification of X-linked genes contributing to X chromosome upregulation from RNA-sequencing datasets. We describe steps for selecting data, preparing software, processing data, and data analysis. This protocol quantifies the contribution value and contribution increment of each X-linked gene to XCU. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lyu et al. (2022).

    Abstract Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become the standard for advanced lung cancer treatment, but their effect on the prevention of lung cancer metastasis is still unclear. T-cell receptors (TCRs) are key "signal sensors" that recognize neoantigens on the surface of cancer cells. This review summarizes the research progress of TCR-T cell therapy in the prevention and treatment of lung cancer from the perspective of the diversity of TCR repertoire and the mechanism of tumor antigen recognition, in order to improve the efficacy of the prevention and treatment of lung cancer metastasis.

    Abstract Catalytic reforming is a key technology in the petroleum refining and petrochemical industry. In recent years, countercurrent continuous reforming has put forward and practiced the new concept of matching the activity of the catalyst with the difficulty of the reaction. Based on the equation-oriented method, the steady-state model for the reactor-regenerator section of countercurrent continuous reforming was established, including the reactor module, the regenerator module, the compressor model, the heat exchanger model, the heating furnace model, and the oil property model. The inlet and outlet of each module are connected according to the actual technological process, and the model conforms to the requirement of real-time optimization (RTO). The sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is used for calculation in this study. The model is calibrated to make the calculated value more consistent with the actual value. The model simulation showed the trend of the reforming reaction and the difference between countercurrent reforming and cocurrent reforming. Finally, the process model was optimized for different goals such as the yield of aromatics, the yield of high-octane gasoline, and the yield of C

    Abstract Background: Sepsis is regarded as a life-threatening organ dysfunction syndrome that responds to infection. Pyroptosis, a unique form of programmed cell death, is characterized by inflammatory cytokine secretion. Recently, an increasing number of studies have investigated the relationship between sepsis and pyroptosis. Appropriate pyroptosis can help to control infection during sepsis, but an immoderate one may cause immune disorders. The present study aimed to identify pyroptosis-related gene biomarkers and their relationship with the immune microenvironment using the genome-wide technique.
    Methods: The training dataset GSE154918 and the validation dataset GSE185263 were downloaded for bioinformatics analysis. Differentially expressed pyroptosis-related genes (DEPRGs) were identified between sepsis (including septic shock) and healthy samples. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed to explore gene function. CIBERSORT tools were applied to quantify infiltrating immune cells, and the correlation between differentially infiltrating immune cells and DEPRG expression was investigated. Furthermore, based on multivariable Cox regression, the study also utilized a random forest (RF) model to screen biomarkers.
    Results: In total, 12 DEPRGs were identified. The expression level of PLCG1 was continuously significantly decreased, while the expression level of NLRC4 was elevated from control to sepsis and then to septic shock. GSEA found that one DEPRG (PLCG1) was involved in the T-cell receptor signaling pathway and that many T cell-related immunologic signature gene sets were enriched. The proportions of plasma cells, T cells CD4 memory activated, and some innate cells in the sepsis group were significantly higher than those in the healthy group, while the proportions of T cells CD8, T cells CD4 memory resting, T cells regulatory (Tregs), and NK cells were lower. Additionally, CASP4 was positively correlated with Neutrophils and negatively correlated with T cells CD4 memory resting and Tregs. Lastly, two biomarkers (CASP4 and PLCG1) were identified, and a nomogram model was constructed for diagnosis with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.998.
    Conclusion: This study identified two potential pyroptosis-related diagnostic genes, CASP4 and PLCG1, and explored the correlation between DEPRGs and the immune microenvironment. Also, our study indicated that some DEPRGs were satisfactorily correlated with several representative immune cells that can regulate pyroptosis.

    Abstract Knocking down the oncogene ROC1 with siRNA inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells by suppressing the Neddylation pathway. However, methods for delivering siRNA in vivo to induce this high anticancer activity with low potential side effects are urgently needed. Herein, a folic acid (FA)-modified polydopamine (PDA) nanomedicine used in photothermal therapy was designed for siRNA delivery. The designed nanovector can undergo photothermal conversion with good biocompatibility. Importantly, this genetic nanomedicine was selectively delivered to liver cancer cells by FA through receptor-mediated endocytosis. Subsequently, the siRNA cargo was released from the PDA nanomedicine into the tumor microenvironment by controlled release triggered by pH. More importantly, the genetic nanomedicine not only inhibited liver cancer cell proliferation but also promoted liver cell apoptosis by slowing ROC1 activity, suppressing the Neddylation pathway, enabling the accumulation of apototic factor ATF4 and DNA damage factor P-H2AX. Combined with photothermal therapy, this genetic nanomedicine showed superior inhibition of the growth of liver cancer in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, the results indicate that this biodegradable nanomedicine exhibits good target recognition, an effective pH response, application potential for genetic therapy, photothermal imaging and treatment of liver cancer. Therefore, this work contributes to the design of a multifunctional nanoplatform that combines genetic therapy and photothermal therapy for the treatment of liver cancer.

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Chemotherapy tolerance weakened efficacy of chemotherapy drugs in the treating gastric cancer (GC). Banxiaxiexin decoction (BXXXD) was widely used in digestive diseases for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In order to better treat GC, three other herbs were added to BXXXD to create a new prescription named Modified Banxiaxiexin decoction (MBXXXD). Although MBXXXD potentially treated GC by improving chemotherapy tolerance, the possible mechanisms were still unknown.
    Aim of the study: To explore the therapeutic effect of MBXXXD on GC patients and explore the possible anti-cancer mechanism.
    Materials and methods: A randomized controlled trial (n = 146) was conducted to evaluate the clinical efficacy between MBXXXD + chemotherapy (n = 73) and placebo + chemotherapy (n = 73) in GC patients by testing overall survival, progression free survival, clinical symptoms, quality of life score, tumor markers, T cell subpopulation, and adverse reactions. Network pharmacology was conducted to discover the potential mechanism of MBXXXD in treating GC. Metabolic activity assay, cell clone colony formation and mitochondrial apoptosis were detected in human GC cell lines including AGS cell, KNM-45 cell and SGC7901 cell treated by MBXXXD. Multiple pathways including P53, AKT, IκB, P65, P38, ERK, JNK p-AKT, p-P65, p-P38, p-ERK and p-JNK in AGS cell, KNM-45 cell and SGC7901 cell treated by MBXXXD and GC patients treated by MBXXXD + chemotherapy were also detected.
    Results: MBXXXD + chemotherapy promoted overall survival and progression free survival, improved clinical symptoms and quality of life score, increased T4 lymphocyte ratio and T8 lymphocyte ratio as well as T4/T8 lymphocyte ratio, and alleviated adverse reactions in GC patients. Network pharmacology predicted multiple targets and pathways of MBXXXD in treating GC including apoptosis, P53 pathway, AKT pathway, MAPK pathway. MBXXXD inhibited cell viability, decreased cell clone colony formation, and promoted mitochondrial apoptosis by producing reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) and the cleavage of pro-caspase-3 and pro-caspase-9, and decreasing mito-tracker red Chloromethyl-X-rosamine (CMXRos) in AGS cell, KNM-45 cell and SGC7901 cell. MBXXXD up-regulated the expression of P53 and IκB, and down-regulated the expression of p-AKT, p-P65, p-P38, p-ERK, p-JNK, AKT, P65, P38, ERK and JNK AGS cell, KNM-45 cell and SGC7901 cell treated by MBXXXD and GC patients treated by MBXXXD + chemotherapy.
    Conclusion: MBXXXD benefitted chemotherapy for GC by regulating multiple targets and pathways.
