    Abstract Background: To summarise the ultrasound manifestations of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) patients with lung lesions and explore the clinical value of bedside ultrasound in the identification of patients at risk of progression to severe disease.
    Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 31 patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to our hospital from January 18 to February 5, 2020. Lung ultrasounds were performed in all cases to evaluate the ultrasound manifestations of the patient's lung lesions and to determine the lung ultrasound scores (LUS). The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used for the multifactor analysis of 7 candidate parameters, including the LUS and the oxygenation index (PaO
    Results: Lung ultrasound images of COVID-19 patients mainly reflected the presence of interstitial pulmonary lesions (90.3%, 28/31). The lung lesions were primarily distributed in the subpleural and peripheral pulmonary zones. Multivariate analyses identified the oxygenation index, the LUS, and the lymphocyte count as factors related to the progression to severe-critical disease in COVID-19 patients (P<0.05). With a cut-off value of 9.5, the area under the ROC curve was 0.910. The LUS showed a sensitivity and specificity of 81.3% and 93.0%, respectively (P≤0.001), with an overall accuracy of 75%.
    Conclusions: The lung ultrasound findings in COVID-19 patients were mainly and specifically manifested as interstitial lesions involving the peripheral zones of the lung. In addition, ultrasound imaging could predict the likelihood of COVID-19 patients progressing to severe disease, thereby allowing for early intervention. Thus, lung ultrasounds have great clinical value in monitoring and evaluating COVID-19 patients.

    Abstract A series of cobalt-based multicomponent electrocatalysts (Co-Cat-T) for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) were synthesized by thermal pyrolysis of activated carbon-supported cobalt and melamine mixture from 500 to 800 °C. Their corresponding electrocatalytic performance was systematically investigated toward ORR in an alkaline electrolyte. The electrocatalyst chemical composition and structure evolution (e.g., microstrain, crystallite size, and cell volume) were confirmed by X-ray diffraction Rietveld analyses. The material generated at 550 °C (Co-Cat-T550) showed the largest cell volume of the C

    Abstract Antibodies targeting insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) induce objective responses in only 5% to 15% of children with sarcoma. Understanding the mechanisms of resistance may identify combination therapies that optimize efficacy of IGF-1R-targeted antibodies. Sensitivity to the IGF-1R-targeting antibody TZ-1 was determined in rhabdomyosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma cell lines. Acquired resistance to TZ-1 was developed and characterized in sensitive Rh41 cells. The BRD4 inhibitor, JQ1, was evaluated as an agent to prevent acquired TZ-1 resistance in Rh41 cells. The phosphorylation status of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) was assessed. Sensitivity to TZ-1 in vivo was determined in Rh41 parental and TZ-1-resistant xenografts. Of 20 sarcoma cell lines, only Rh41 was sensitive to TZ-1. Cells intrinsically resistant to TZ-1 expressed multiple (>10) activated RTKs or a relatively less complex set of activated RTKs (∼5). TZ-1 decreased the phosphorylation of IGF-1R but had little effect on other phosphorylated RTKs in all resistant lines. TZ-1 rapidly induced activation of RTKs in Rh41 that was partially abrogated by knockdown of SOX18 and JQ1. Rh41/TZ-1 cells selected for acquired resistance to TZ-1 constitutively expressed multiple activated RTKs. TZ-1 treatment caused complete regressions in Rh41 xenografts and was significantly less effective against the Rh41/TZ-1 xenograft. Intrinsic resistance is a consequence of redundant signaling in pediatric sarcoma cell lines. Acquired resistance in Rh41 cells is associated with rapid induction of multiple RTKs, indicating a dynamic response to IGF-1R blockade and rapid development of resistance. The TZ-1 antibody had greater antitumor activity against Rh41 xenografts compared with other IGF-1R-targeted antibodies tested against this model.

    Abstract A metal organic framework (MOF), synthesized from cobalt salt, melamine (mela), and 1,4-dicarboxybezene (BDC), was used as precursor to prepare Co/CoNₓ/N-CNT/C electrocatalyst via heat treatment at different temperature (700–900 °C) under nitrogen atmosphere. Crystallites size and microstrain in the 800 °C heat-treated sample (MOFs-800) were the lowest, whereas the stacking fault value was the highest among the rest of the homemade samples, as attested to by the Williamson–Hall analysis, hence assessing that the structural or/and surface modification of Co nanoparticles (NPs), found in MOFs-800, was different from that in other samples. CNTs in MOFs-800, interacting with Co NPs, were formed on the surface of the support, keeping the hexagonal shape of the initial MOF. Among the three homemade samples, the MOF-800 sample, with the best electrocatalytic performance toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in 0.1 M KOH solution, showed the highest density of CNTs skin on the support, the lowest ID/IG ratio, and the largest N atomic content in form of pyridinic-N, CoNₓ, pyrrolic-N, graphitic-N, and oxidized-N species. Based on the binding energy shift toward lower energies, a strong interaction between the active site and the support was identified for MOFs-800 sample. The number of electron transfer was 3.8 on MOFs-800, close to the value of 4.0 determined on the Pt/C benchmark, thus implying a fast and efficient multielectron reduction of molecular oxygen on CoNₓ active sites. In addition, the chronoamperometric response within 24 000 s showed a more stable current density at 0.69 V/RHE on MOFs-800 as compared with that of Pt/C.

    Abstract Annexin A1 (anxA1) is an immunomodulatory protein that has been proposed as a tumor vascular target for antitumor biologic agents, yet to date the vascular expression of anxA1 in specific tumor indications has not been systematically assessed. Attempts to evaluate vascular anxA1 expression by immunohistochemistry are complicated by a lack of available antibodies that are both specific for anxA1 and bind the N-terminal-truncated form of anxA1 that has previously been identified in tumor vasculature. To study the vascular expression pattern of anxA1 in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), we isolated an antibody capable of binding N-terminal-truncated anxA127-346 and employed it in immunohistochemical studies of human lung specimens. Lung tumor specimens evaluated with this antibody revealed vascular (endothelial) anxA1 expression in five of eight tumor samples studied, but no vascular anxA1 expression was observed in normal lung tissue. Tumor microarray analysis further demonstrated positive vascular staining for anxA1 in 30 of 80 NSCLC samples, and positive staining of neoplastic cells was observed in 54 of 80 samples. No correlation was observed between vascular and parenchymal anxA1 expression. Two rodent tumor models, B16-F10 and Py230, were determined to have upregulated anxA1 expression in the intratumoral vasculature. These data validate anxA1 as a potential vascular anti-tumor target in a subset of human lung tumors and identify rodent models which demonstrate anxA1 expression in tumor vasculature.

    Abstract Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a class of biopharmaceuticals that combine the specificity of antibodies with the high-potency of cytotoxic drugs. Engineering cysteine residues in the antibodies using mutagenesis is a common method to prepare site-specific ADCs. With this approach, solvent accessible amino acids in the antibody have been selected for substitution with cysteine for conjugating maleimide-bearing cytotoxic drugs, resulting in homogeneous and stable site-specific ADCs. Here we describe a cysteine engineering approach based on the insertion of cysteines before and after selected sites in the antibody, which can be used for site-specific preparation of ADCs. Cysteine-inserted antibodies have expression level and monomeric content similar to the native antibodies. Conjugation to a pyrrolobenzodiazepine dimer (SG3249) resulted in comparable efficiency of site-specific conjugation between cysteine-inserted and cysteine-substituted antibodies. Cysteine-inserted ADCs were shown to have biophysical properties, FcRn, and antigen binding affinity similar to the cysteine-substituted ADCs. These ADCs were comparable for serum stability to the ADCs prepared using cysteine-mutagenesis and had selective and potent cytotoxicity against human prostate cancer cells. Two of the cysteine-inserted variants abolish binding of the resulting ADCs to FcγRs in vitro, thereby potentially preventing non-target mediated uptake of the ADCs by cells of the innate immune system that express FcγRs, which may result in mitigating off-target toxicities. A selected cysteine-inserted ADC demonstrated potent dose-dependent anti-tumor activity in a xenograph tumor mouse model of human breast adenocarcinoma expressing the oncofetal antigen 5T4.
