    Abstract CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology can effectively solve the problem of insufficient source of T cells in chimerical antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) therapy and enhance their anti-tumor abilities by knocking out the genes related to the suppression of T cells activity. The technology can also be used to construct T cells with dual-targeting effect to stop tumor immune escape and inhibit recurrence and drug resistance development during chemotherapy. Compared with the other genetic engineering technologies that have complex processes, multiple genome editing by CRISPR/Cas9 is a technology of efficient and convenient to operate.So it is believed to be valuable and potential target molecules for CAR-T therapy.

    Abstract Keratin 6A (KRT6A) is involved in the pathogenesis of various skin diseases. However, the reports on the roles of KRT6A in atopic dermatitis (AD) are limited. This study aimed to investigate the potentials of KRT6A in AD. mRNA levels were detected by RT-PCR. Cytokine release was determined by ELISA. Protein expression was determined using Western blot. Cell viability was determined by CCK-8. Cytotoxicity was detected by LDH assay. Cell death was determined by TUNEL. The pyroptosis of keratinocytes was detected using flow cytometry. We found that KRT6A was overexpressed in AD patients. Moreover, KRT6A was stimulated after exposed to proinflammatory cytokines. Overexpressed KRT6A suppressed inflammatory response, while KRT6A knockdown exerted the opposite effects. Overexpressed KRT6A suppressed inflammation-induced pyroptosis of keratinocytes. Additionally, KRT6A negatively regulated interleukin-17a (IL-17a) expression, blocking IL-17 signaling. IL-17a overexpression antagonized the effects of KRT6A and promoted pyroptosis of keratinocytes. In conclusion, KRT6A exerted protective functions in AD via regulating IL-17 signaling. This KRT6A/IL-17 may be a novel target for AD.

    Abstract Studies have found that the digital economy plays a positive role in promoting high-quality economic development. Meanwhile, the digital industrialization and industrial digitalization have given rise to new demands and supply modes of consumption. It is necessary to analyze the role of consumption expansion in the impact of digital economy on high-quality economic development. Based on Chinese provincial panel data, we first applied the entropy weight method to construct the digital economy index and the high-quality economic development index. And on this basis, it was verified that the digital economy can positively promote the high-quality development of the inverted U-shaped structural economy. Then we separately used the mediation and the threshold effect models to analyze the role of consumption expansion in empowering high-quality development in the digital economy. Regional heterogeneity was further taken into account. The results dedicate that consumer demand and the digital economy have a partial or complete mediating effect. The promotion of high-quality development by the digital economy can be affected by the threshold of consumption expansion, which is manifested in the marginal incremental effect due to the growth of consumption supply. On the contrary, the growth of consumer demand has led to the inverted U-shape of the digital economy to promote high-quality economic development. In the heterogeneity analysis, the threshold effect also varied greatly. This research enriches the theoretical achievements and reveals the impact of consumption expansion on the digital economy affecting the high-quality development, which may provide certain reference for other countries and regions.

    Abstract Background: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) for the diagnosis of mediastinal and hilar lymph is poorly studied in patients with extrathoracic malignancies.
    Aim: To evaluate the value of EBUS-TBNA for the diagnosis of enlarged intrathoracic lymph nodes in patients with extrathoracic malignancies.
    Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with extrathoracic malignancies who were referred to Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 2013 to December 2018 for EBUS-TBNA due to intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. The specimens were defined as positive for malignancy, negative for non-malignancy (tuberculosis, sarcoidosis,
    Results: A total of 80 patients underwent EBUS-TBNA and had a final diagnosis, among which 50 (62.5%) were diagnosed with extrathoracic malignancy with intrathoracic lymph nodes metastasis, 14 (17.5%) were diagnosed with primary lung cancer with nodal involvement, and 16 (20.0%) exhibited benign behavior including tuberculosis, sarcoidosis and reactive lymphadenitis or who had benign follow-up. The diagnostic sensitivity, NPV, and accuracy of EBUS-TBNA for intrathoracic lymphadenopathy in patients with extrathoracic malignancy were 93.8% (
    Conclusion: EBUS-TBNA is a simple and accurate procedure for the diagnosis of intrathoracic lymphadenopathy with extrathoracic malignancy.

    Abstract Composites, such as fiber-reinforced plastics, are produced using layering prepregs with varying ply orientations to achieve enhanced mechanical properties. However, this results in intricate residual stresses, which are influenced by the forming process and ply orientation. In this study, three representative microscopic models-featuring discrete fiber and resin-represent unidirectional, cross-ply, and angle-ply laminates. These models underwent simulations under three different cooling histories using the finite element method. The findings suggest that ply orientation does not significantly influence temperature distribution. However, it significantly impacts the von Mises stress in the fiber closest to the interface between two stacked laminae. This differs from the inter-laminar stresses determined with the macroscopic lamination model. Apart from the free edge, which exhibits a complex stress distribution, the von Mises stress within a unit cell displays a recurring pattern. The magnitude of the von Mises stress decreases as the ply orientation angle increases and shifts when a temperature gradient is present throughout the composite's thickness. This study provides valuable insights into the mechanics of residual stresses at the microscopic level and highlights potential defect areas influenced by these stresses.

    Abstract Background: Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning is an important diagnostic imaging technique used in disease diagnosis, therapy planning, treatment monitoring, and medical research. The standardized uptake value (SUV) obtained at a single time frame has been widely employed in clinical practice. Well beyond this simple static measure, more detailed metabolic information can be recovered from dynamic PET scans, followed by the recovery of arterial input function and application of appropriate tracer kinetic models. Many efforts have been devoted to the development of quantitative techniques over the last couple of decades.
    Challenges: The advent of new-generation total-body PET scanners characterized by ultra-high sensitivity and long axial field of view, i.e., uEXPLORER (United Imaging Healthcare), PennPET Explorer (University of Pennsylvania), and Biograph Vision Quadra (Siemens Healthineers), further stimulates valuable inspiration to derive kinetics for multiple organs simultaneously. But some emerging issues also need to be addressed, e.g., the large-scale data size and organ-specific physiology. The direct implementation of classical methods for total-body PET imaging without proper validation may lead to less accurate results.
    Conclusions: In this contribution, the published dynamic total-body PET datasets are outlined, and several challenges/opportunities for quantitation of such types of studies are presented. An overview of the basic equation, calculation of input function (based on blood sampling, image, population or mathematical model), and kinetic analysis encompassing parametric (compartmental model, graphical plot and spectral analysis) and non-parametric (B-spline and piece-wise basis elements) approaches is provided. The discussion mainly focuses on the feasibilities, recent developments, and future perspectives of these methodologies for a diverse-tissue environment.
