    Abstract The purpose of this experiment to analyze the expression and clinical significance of interleukin-17 (IL-17) in lung tissue of lung cancer patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). For this aim, 68 patients with lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who were admitted to our hospital from February 2020 to February 2022 were selected as the research objects of the study group. The specimens were fresh lung tissue obtained after lobectomy; In addition, 54 healthy subjects were selected as the control group during the same period, and fresh lung tissue obtained by minimally invasive lung volume reduction was selected as the sample. The clinical baseline data of the two groups were observed and compared. The mean alveolar area, small airway inflammation score and Ma tube wall thickness were measured. The expression of IL-17 was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results showed that gender, average age and average body mass index of the two groups (P > 0.05); At present, the proportion of smokers, pulmonary artery systolic pressure, PaCO2 level and CRP level in the study group are high, PaO2 level, FEV1% predicted value, FEV1 / FVC and FIB level are low, and the number of acute exacerbations in the past year is high (P > 0.05). In the study group, the average alveolar area, the thickness of the Ma tube wall, the lymphocyte infiltration score of the tracheal wall and the total pathological score of the small airway were higher (P > 0.05). The expression of IL-17 in the airway wall and lung parenchyma was higher in the study group (P > 0.05). IL-17 expression in lung tissue of lung cancer patients with COPD was positively correlated with body mass index, and negatively correlated with CRP, FIB, FEV1% predicted value and the number of acute exacerbations in the past year; CRP and the number of acute exacerbations in the past year were independent variables and independent influencing factors of IL-17 expression (P < 0.05). In conclusion, IL-17 is highly expressed in the lung tissues of patients with lung cancer and COPD, which may play an important role in the occurrence and development of the disease.

    Abstract Purpose of review: The (pro)renin receptor (PRR), also termed as ATPase H+ transporting accessory protein 2 (ATP6AP2), was originally cloned as a specific receptor for prorenin and renin [together called (pro)renin]. Given the wide tissue distribution of PRR, PRR was further postulated to act as a regulator of tissue renin. However, assigning a physiological role of PRR within the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been challenging largely due to its pleotropic functions in regulation of embryogenesis, autophagy, and H+ transport. The current review will summarize recent advances in understanding the roles of sPPR within the intrarenal RAS as well as those outside this local system.
    Recent findings: Site-1 protease (S1P) is a predominant source of sPPR at least in the kidney. So far most of the known physiological functions of PRR including renal handling of electrolytes and fluid and blood pressure are mediated by sPRR. In particular, sPRR serves as a positive regulator of collecting duct renin to activate the intrarenal RAS during water deprivation or angiotensin-II (AngII) infusion. However, PRR/sPRR can act in renin-independent manner under other circumstances.
    Summary: S1P-derived sPRR has emerged as a key regulator of kidney function and blood pressure and its relationship with the intrarenal RAS depends on the physiological context.

    Abstract The (pro)renin receptor (PRR) was originally cloned as a specific single-transmembrane receptor for prorenin and renin and has now emerged as a multifunctional protein implicated in a wide variety of developmental and physiopathological processes. Activation of PRR in the kidney causes Na+ and water retention, contributing to elevation of blood pressure in response to various hypertensive stimuli. Part of the renal action of PRR depends on activation of intrarenal renin-angiotensin system. In recent years, accumulating evidence suggests that the prohypertensive action of renal PRR was largely mediated by production of the 28-kDa soluble (pro)renin receptor through protease-mediated cleavage of the extracellular domain of PRR. The generation of multiple isoforms of PRR due to the protease-mediated cleavage partially explains diversified actions of PRR. The current review will summarize recent advances in understanding the roles of sPPR in animal models of hypertension.

    Abstract Aim: Our main goal of this meta-analytical analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) against multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) in the context of identifying biochemical recurrence in patients with prostate cancer (PCa).
    Materials and methods: A thorough search covering articles published until March 2023 was carried out across major databases such as PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. Studies examining the direct comparison of PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI in patients with PCa suffering biochemical recurrence were included in the inclusion criteria. Using the renowned Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Performance Studies-2 technique, each study's methodological rigor was assessed.
    Results: We analyzed data from six eligible studies involving 290 patients in total. The combined data showed that for PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI, respectively, the pooled overall detection rates for recurrent PCa after definitive treatment were 0.69 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.45-0.89) and 0.70 (95% CI: 0.44-0.91). The detection rates for local recurrence were specifically 0.52 (95% CI: 0.39-0.65) and 0.62 (95% CI: 0.31-0.89), while they were 0.50 (95% CI: 0.26-0.74) and 0.32 (95% CI: 0.18-0.48) for lymph node metastasis. Notably, there was no discernible difference between the two imaging modalities in terms of the overall detection rate (P = 0.95). The detection rates for local recurrence and lymph node metastasis did not differ statistically significantly (P = 0.55, 0.23).
    Conclusion: The performance of PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI in identifying biochemical recurrence in PCa appears to be comparable. However, the meta-analysis' findings came from research with modest sample sizes. In this context, more extensive research should be conducted in the future.
