    Abstract Objective: Successful prognosis is crucial for the management and treatment of osteosarcoma (OSC). This study aimed to predict the cancer-specific survival rate in patients with OSC using deep learning algorithms and classical Cox proportional hazard models to provide data to support individualized treatment of patients with OSC.
    Methods: Data on patients diagnosed with OSC from 2004 to 2017 were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. The study sample was then divided randomly into a training cohort and a validation cohort in the proportion of 7:3. The DeepSurv algorithm and the Cox proportional hazard model were chosen to construct prognostic models for patients with OSC. The prediction efficacy of the model was estimated using the concordance index (C-index), the integrated Brier score (IBS), the root mean square error (RMSE), and the mean absolute error (SME).
    Results: A total of 3218 patients were randomized into training and validation groups (n = 2252 and 966, respectively). Both DeepSurv and Cox models had better efficacy in predicting cancer-specific survival (CSS) in OSC patients (C-index >0.74). In the validation of other metrics, DeepSurv did not have superiority over the Cox model in predicting survival in OSC patients.
    Conclusions: After validation, our CSS prediction model for patients with OSC based on the DeepSurv algorithm demonstrated satisfactory prediction efficacy and provided a convenient webpage calculator.

    Abstract The speaker's identity (who the speaker is) and linguistic information (what the speaker is saying) are essential to daily communication. However, it is unclear whether and how listeners process the two types of information differently in speech perception. The present study adopted a passive oddball paradigm to compare the identity and linguistic information processing concerning neural resource involvements and hemispheric lateralization patterns. We used two female native Mandarin speakers' real and pseudo-Mandarin words to differentiate the identity from linguistic (phonological and lexical) information. The results showed that, in real words, the phonological-lexical variation elicited larger MMN amplitudes than the identity variation. In contrast, there were no significant MMN amplitude differences between the identity and phonological variation in pseudo words. Regardless of real or pseudo words, the identity and linguistic variation did not elicit MMN amplitudes differences between the left and right hemispheres. Taken together, findings from the present study indicated that the identity information recruited similar neural resources to the phonological information but different neural resources from the lexical information. However, the identity and linguistic information processing did not show a particular hemispheric lateralization pattern at an early pre-attentive speech perception stage. The findings revealed similarities and differences between linguistic and non-linguistic information processing, contributing to a better understanding of speech perception and spoken word recognition.

    Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most prevalent cancer globally, and about half of CRC patients eventually succumb to tumor metastasis. Despite this, treatment options for metastatic colon cancer remain severely limited, reflected by a 12% 5-year overall survival rate. Increasing evidence suggests that cancer stem cells (CSCs) are pivotal in driving CRC metastasis. Our study found a significant upregulation of MOGS in metastatic colorectal cancer, with high MOGS expression inversely correlating with patient prognosis. Additionally, MOGS enhances the NOTCH pathway, thus promoting stemness in CRC cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, MOGS may facilitate the maturation of NOTCH1 protein by promoting NOTCH1 glycosylation. Correspondingly, silencing MOGS markedly reduced invasion and stemness of CRC cells

    Abstract B cell primary thyroid malignant lymphoma (BC-PTML) accounts for 95% of all cases of PTML. However, development of effective treatment and management strategies for BC-PTML is challenging owing to the rarity of this disease. This study assessed data from 1,152 patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database who were diagnosed with BC-PTML during 2000-2015. Patients were randomly divided into a training group (n=806) and a test group (n=346) at a ratio of 7:3 using the hold-out method. Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank tests were used to calculate the survival rate of patients. Subsequently, a stepwise Cox regression model was established to screen the prognostic factors of patients with BC-PTML, and these variables were used to construct a nomogram to predict 5-, 10-, and 15-year BC-PTML cancer-specific survival (CSS). The discrimination and calibration of the new model were evaluated using the concordance index (C-index) and calibration curves, and the accuracy and benefits of the model were assessed through comparison with the traditional Ann Arbor staging system using decision curve analysis (DCA). After stepwise regression, the optimal model included radiotherapy, primary site surgery, Ann Arbor Stage, chemotherapy, histological subtype, and age at diagnosis. The C-index, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and DCA suggested that the nomogram had improved discriminatory ability and clinical benefit compared with the Ann Arbor staging system. In summary, this study established an effective nomogram to predict CSS in patients with BC-PTML and assist clinicians in developing effective individualized treatment strategies.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to explore the effects of miR-939 and miR-376A on the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) by using a decoy strategy to regulate the expression of nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB) and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT). Such strategies represent a potential novel treatment for UC. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis was used to detect the differences between the expression of miR-939, miR-376a, NF-κB, NFAT in the tissue samples from the resting and active stages of UC and healthy controls, and analyzed the correlation. The electrophoretic mobility shift assay was used to validate the ability of miRNAs to bind to NF-κB and NFAT. The expression of components of the intestinal barrier in UC and changes in apoptosis-related factors were examined by western blotting, qPCR, and immunofluorescence. After a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mouse model of UC was established, the morphological changes in the colonic tissues of mice, the changes in serum inflammatory factors, and the changes in urine protein or urine leukocytes, liver enzymes, and prothrombin time were measured to examine intestinal permeability. The expression of miR-939 and miR-376a in human UC tissue was significantly lower than that in the normal control tissue, and was negatively correlated with the expression of NF-κB and NFAT. miR-939 and miR-376a decoy strategies resulted in a beneficial increase in the expression of claudins, occludins, and ZO-1 protein and inhibited apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells. The disease activity index of the UC model group was significantly higher than that of the normal control group. The expression of inflammatory factors in the decoy group was higher than that in the UC model group. Therefore, from the experimental results, it can be concluded that using miR-939 and miR-376a to trap NF-κB and NFAT inhibits the activation of transcription factors NF-κB and NFAT, which in turn inhibits the expression of inflammatory factors and results in partial recovery of the intestinal barrier in UC. The decoy strategy inhibited apoptosis in the target cells and had a therapeutic effect in the mice model of UC. This study provides new ideas for the development of future clinical therapies for UC.

    Abstract Objective: To explore the relationship between flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) and peritoneal metastasis (PM) in gastric cancer (GC).
    Materials and methods: TIMER 2.0 was used to perform pan-cancer analysis and assess the correlation between the expression of FMOs and cancers. A dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) was used to analyze the correlation between FMOs and clinicopathological features of GC. PM is well established as the most common mode of metastasis in GC. To further analyze the correlation between FMOs and PM of GC, a dataset was obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The results were validated by immunohistochemistry. The relationship between FMOs and PM of GC was explored, and a novel PM risk signature was constructed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. The regression model's validity was tested by multisampling. A nomogram was established based on the model for predicting PM in GC patients. The mechanism of FMOs in GC patients presenting with PM was assessed by conducting Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses in TCGA and GEO datasets. Finally, the potential relationship between FMOs and immunotherapy was analyzed.
    Results: The pan-cancer analysis in TCGA and GEO datasets showed that FMO1 was upregulated, while FMO2 and FMO4 were downregulated in GC. Moreover, FMO1 and FMO2 correlated positively with the T and N stage of GC in the TCGA dataset. FMO1 and FMO2 expression was a risk factor for GC (hazard ratio: 1.112 and 1.185). The overexpression of FMO1 was significantly correlated with worse disease-free-survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). However, no relationship was found between FMO2 expression in GC and DFS and OS. PM was highly prevalent among GC patients and typically associated with a worse prognosis. FMO1 was highly expressed in GC with PM. FMO1 and FMO2 were positively correlated with PM in GC. We identified a 12-gene panel for predicting the PM risk signature by LASSO (Area Under Curve (AUC) = 0.948, 95%CI: 0.896-1.000). A 10-gene panel for PM prediction was identified (AUC = 0.932, 95%CI: 0.874-0.990), comprising FMO1 and FMO2. To establish a model for clinical application, a 7-gene panel was established (AUC = 0.927, 95% CI: 0.877-0.977) and successfully validated by multisampling. (AUC = 0.892, 95% CI: 0.878-0.906). GO and KEGG analyses suggest that FMO1 and FMO2 regulate the extracellular matrix and cell adhesion. FMO1 and FMO2 were positively correlated with the immune score of GC, and their expression was associated with the infiltration of immune cells.
    Conclusion: PM in GC is strongly correlated with FMOs. Overall, FMO1 and FMO2 have huge prospects for application as novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets.

    Abstract The spleen is postulated to be a hematopoietic tissue in adult fish; however, clear evidence is still lacking to define its role in hematopoietic activity. In our previous study, a congenitally asplenic zebrafish was generated though gene editing, which provided a new perspective for studying the role of fish spleen in hematopoiesis. In this study, HSC-regulated and erythrocyte marker genes, such as gata1a, gata2, klf1, hbaa1, hbaa2, hbba1 and hbba2 were significantly reduced in congenitally asplenic zebrafish when compared with wild-type (WT). Subsequently, we conducted the transcriptome profiles of whole kidneys from WT and congenitally asplenic zebrafish to explore the possible molecular mechanisms underlying the impaired erythropoiesis caused by congenital asplenia. Our results demonstrated that congenital asplenia might impair heme-iron recycling during erythropoiesis, as evidenced by significant down-regulation of genes associated with iron acquisition (tfr1a, tfa, steap3 and slc25a37) and heme biosynthesis and transport (alas2, fech, uros, urod, copx, ppox and abcb10) in congenitally asplenic zebrafish. In addition, the down-regulation of hemopoiesis-related GO terms, including heme binding, tetrapyrrole binding, iron ion binding, heme metabolic process, heme biosynthetic process, erythrocyte differentiation, iron ion homeostasis and hemoglobin metabolic process confirmed the impaired erythropoiesis induced by congenital asplenia. Our study provides an in-depth understanding of spleen function in regulating heme-iron homeostasis during hematopoiesis, thereby providing valuable insights into pathological responses in splenectomized or congenitally asplenic patients.
