    Abstract Background: Immune escape remains a major challenge in the treatment of malignant tumors. Here, we studied the mechanisms underlying immune escape in the tumor microenvironment and identified a potential therapeutic target.
    Methods: Pathological specimens from patients with liver cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, and liver metastasis of colon cancer were subjected to immunohistochemistry analysis to detect the expression of programmed death-1 (PD-1) in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Additionally, the expression of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), such as highly upregulated in liver cancer (HULC) was evaluated by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and the relationship between HULC, Treg cells, and PD-1 was determined. The animals were divided into H22 hepatic carcinoma and S180 sarcoma groups. Each group was divided into
    Results: High expression of lncRNA HULC promotes the proliferation of Treg cells and increases PD-1 expression in the tumor microenvironment. The HULC-Treg-PD-1 axis plays an immunosuppressive role and promotes the proliferation of malignant tumors. Knocking out the
    Conclusion: The lncRNA HULC-Treg-PD-1 axis promotes the growth of malignant tumors. This axis could be modulated to reduce PD-1, IL-10, and TGF-β1 expression and the subsequent immune escape. The inhibition of immune escape in the tumor microenvironment can be achieved by controlling the LncRNA HULC-Treg-PD-1 axis.

    Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused an ongoing global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Proper nutritional support helps boost the immunity of the human body, strengthen the high-risk populations' defense against SARS-CoV-2, reduce the prevalence of COVID-19, prevent mild cases from developing into severe cases, and reduce the occurrence of adverse symptoms during recovery. Nutritional support is an important guarantee to provide protection against virus infection, promote patient recovery, and improve patient prognosis. Whole nutritional food formulas designed according to the characteristic clinical symptoms of COVID-19 provide patients with comprehensive nutritional support of appropriate nutritional content, which effectively improves the nutritional status of patients and provides strong technical support to improve their quality of survival. During the critical period of COVID-19 prevention and control, more emphasis should be placed on the essential role of nutritional support and the clinical efficacy of nutritional support should be given full play.

    Abstract Objective: While low-dose lamotrigine has shown effectiveness in managing paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) in pediatric populations, the cognitive consequences of extended use are yet to be fully elucidated. This study seeks to assess the evolution of cognitive functions and the amelioration of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms following a two-year lamotrigine treatment in children.
    Methods: This investigation employed an open-label, uncontrolled trial design. Between January 2008 and December 2021, thirty-one participants, ranging in age from 6.5 to 14.1 years, were enrolled upon receiving a new diagnosis of PKD, as defined by the clinical diagnostic criteria set by Bruno in 2004. Comprehensive evaluation of PRRT2 variants and 16p11.2 microdeletion was achieved using whole-exome sequencing (WES) and bioinformatics analysis of copy number variant (CNV) for all subjects. Immediately after diagnosis, participants commenced treatment with low-dose lamotrigine. Cognitive function was assessed using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Chinese Revised (WISC-CR) at baseline and after 2 years, with ADHD diagnoses and symptom severity simultaneously assessed by experts in accordance with the DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for ADHD and the ADHD Rating Scale-IV (ADHD-RS-IV).
    Results: Initially, twelve out of 31 patients (38.7%) presented with comorbid ADHD. The latency to treatment initiation was notably longer in PKD patients with ADHD (30.75 ± 12.88 months) than in those without ADHD (11.66 ± 9.08 months), t = 4.856, p<0.001. Notably, patients with a latency exceeding 2 years exhibited a heightened risk for comorbid ADHD (OR = 4.671, P=0.015) in comparison to those with shorter latency. Out of the cohort, twenty-five patients saw the clinical trial to its completion. These individuals demonstrated a marked elevation in WISC-CR scores at the 2-year mark relative to the outset across FSIQ (baseline mean: 108.72 ± 10.45 vs 24 months: 110.56 ± 10.03, p=0.001), VIQ (baseline mean: 109.44 ± 11.15 vs 24 months: 110.80 ± 10.44, p=0.028), and PIQ domains (baseline mean: 106.52 ± 9.74 vs 24 months: 108.24 ± 9.38, p=0.012). Concurrently, a substantial mitigation was observed in ADHD inattention at 2 years compared to baseline (p<0.001), with an average total subscale scores decrement from 9.04 ± 4.99 to 6.24 ± 4.05.
    Conclusion: Prolonged duration of untreated PKD in children may elevate the risk of ADHD comorbidity. Notably, following a 2-year lamotrigine regimen, enhancements were observed in both cognitive test outcomes and ADHD symptomatology.

    Abstract Loss-of-function analyses are essential to dissect the complex nature of biological processes, including gametogenesis. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) has been widely used in crop species as an amenable and rapid way to generate gene knockdowns. As a transient assay, VIGS circumvents the generation of stable transgenic lines through laborious and time-consuming tissue culture techniques. VIGS involves inoculating plants during early development with genetically manipulated viral constructs carrying an endogenous gene target sequence. The viral infection triggers the host plant gene silencing machinery to process the viral genomic RNA into small RNAs (sRNAs) including the gene complementary region. The sRNAs with complementary sequences to the endogenous gene mediate posttranscriptional gene silencing of the targeted gene. Here, we provide a simple and reproducible VIGS protocol employing the tobacco rattle virus (TRV) in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum cv. M82). As it is stable at later developmental stages this approach is suitable for many traits in tomato including gametogenesis and it can be adapted to other crop species.

    Abstract It is well known that the inferior film morphology and the excessive surface/interface defect states are two obstacles to achieving high electroluminescence performance of quasi-2D perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). To solve these problems, ibuprofen was introduced as an additive in the quasi-2D perovskite emitting layer. More efficient photoluminescence is demonstrated. Further, optimized quasi-2D PeLEDs with a current efficiency of 55.93 cd/A are confirmed and 5.7-fold enhancement in device stability is obtained. The physical mechanism of the remarkable improvement is investigated by kinds of measurements. Three aspects should be counted into it. First, the introduction of ibuprofen can passivate defects, thus making the quasi-2D perovskite emitting layer more dense and homogeneous. The reason should be that the C═O functional group and C═C bond in the benzene ring in ibuprofen can coordinate the unsaturated Pb

    Abstract Objective: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are enriched in the brain and involved in various central nervous system diseases. The potential role of circCCDC6 in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion defects was partly elucidated in the work.
    Methods: A middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) rat model and an oxygen-glucose deprivation and re-oxygenation (OGD/R)-treated SH-SY5Y cell model were constructed. CircCCDC6 expression in the two models was examined, and circCCDC6-involved mechanisms in neuronal pyroptosis and inflammation were analyzed through loss- and gain-of-function assays.
    Results: MCAO/R rat brain tissues and OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells exhibited upregulated circCCDC6. Silencing circCCDC6 attenuated neuronal pyroptosis and inflammation in the brain tissue of MCAO/R rats. Overexpressing circCCDC6 or inhibiting miR-128-3p stimulated OGD/R-induced pyroptosis and inflammation in SH-SY5Y cells, while upregulating miR-128-3p attenuated OGD/R injury. CircCCDC6 silencing-induced effects on SH-SY5Y cells were antagonized by TXNIP overexpression.
    Conclusion: Mechanistically, circCCDC6 mediates miR-128-3p and activates TXNIP/NLRP3, thereby promoting OGD/R-induced neuronal pyroptosis and inflammation. CircCCDC6 may provide a new strategy for the treatment of MCAO/R.

    Abstract Background: To facilitate the identification of less common clinical phenotypes of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) in children.
    Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 236 patients with MOGAD. The following phenotypes were considered to be typical for MOGAD: ADEM, ON, TM, and NMOSD. Less common onset clinical phenotypes were screened out; their clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis were summarized and analyzed.
    Results: 16 cases (6.8%) presented as cortical encephalitis, with convulsions, headache, and fever as the main symptoms. 15 cases were misdiagnosed in the early period. 13 cases (5.5%) showed the overlapping syndrome of MOGAD and anti-N-methyl-D aspartate receptor encephalitis (MNOS), with seizures (92.3%) being the most common clinical symptom. 11 cases (84.6%) showed relapses. The cerebral leukodystrophy-like phenotype was present in seven cases (3.0%), with a recurrence rate of 50%. Isolated seizures without any findings on MRI phenotype was present in three cases (1.3%), with the only clinical symptom being seizures of focal origin. Three cases (1.3%) of aseptic meningitis phenotype presented with prolonged fever.
    Conclusion: 40/236 (16.9%) of children with MOGAD had less common phenotypes. Less common clinical phenotypes of pediatric MOGAD are susceptible to misdiagnosis and deserve more attention.
    Impact: This is the first comprehensive analysis and summary of all less commonl clinical phenotypes of MOGAD in children, while previous studies have only focused on a specific phenotype or case reports. We analyzed the characteristics of MOGAD in children and further revealed the reasons why these less common clinical phenotypes are prone to misdiagnosis and deserve more attention. Our research on treatment has shown that early detection of MOG antibodies and early treatment are of great significance for improving the prognosis of these patients.
