    Abstract: Colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is a rare subtype of colorectal cancer (CRC) with unique characteristics. Due to the limited researches on it, a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of this subtype is still lacking. In this article, we summarize the clinicopathological features and molecular characteristics of colorectal SRCC based on a literature review. Clinically, SRCC has been associated with young age, proximal site preference, advanced tumor stage, high histological grade, high rate of lymph node involvement, frequent peritoneal metastasis, and a significantly poor prognosis. Regarding molecular characteristics, in SRCC, the mutation burden of the classic signaling pathways that include WNT/β-catenin, RAS/RAF/MAPK, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways are generally reduced. In contrast, some genes related to the “epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process” and the “stem cell properties”, including RNF43 , CDH1 , and SMAD4 , as well as the related TGF-β signaling pathway have been observed more frequently altered in SRCC than in conventional adenocarcinoma (AC). In many studies but not in others, SRCC showed a higher frequency of BRAF mutation, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) positive status compared to AC. It has been proposed that colorectal SRCC consists of two subtypes, in which the MSI + /CIMP + / BRAF + /CD3 + /PD-L1 + hypermethylated genotype is more common in the proximal colon, and may represent the potential candidate for immunotherapy. Understanding the special molecular mechanisms related to the aggressive biology of SRCC is of great importance, which may provide a theoretical basis for the development of more targeted and effective treatments for this refractory disease.

    Abstract: To explore the associations of macular microvascular parameters with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) in rural-dwelling older adults in China. Methods This population-based cross-sectional study included 195 participants (age ≥ 60 years; 57.4% women) in the optical coherence tomographic angiography (OCTA) sub-study within the Multimodal Interventions to delay Dementia and disability in rural China (MIND-China). Macular microvascular parameters were measured using the OCTA. We automatically estimated volumes of gray matter, white matter, and white matter hyperintensity (WMH), and manually assessed numbers of enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) and lacunes on brain magnetic resonance imaging. Data were analyzed with the general linear models. Results Adjusting for multiple confounders, lower vessel skeleton density (VSD) and higher vessel diameter index (VDI) were significantly associated with larger WMH volume ( P & lt; 0.05). Lower VSD and foveal density-300 (FD-300) of left eye were significantly associated with lower brain parenchymal volume ( P & lt; 0.05). In addition, lower areas of foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and FD-300 of left eye were significantly associated with more EPVS ( P & lt; 0.05). The associations of abnormal macular microvascular parameters with WMH volume were evident mainly among females. Macular microvascular parameters were not associated with lacunes. Conclusion Macular microvascular signs are associated with WMH, brain parenchymal volume, and EPVS in older adults. The OCTA-assessed macular microvascular parameters can be valuable markers for microvascular lesions in the brain.

    Abstract: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer with a high global incidence and mortality. Mutated genes or dysregulated pathways responsible for CRC progression have been identified and employed as biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. In this study, a ubiquitination regulator, MARCH9, was shown to accelerate CRC progression both in vitro and in vivo . CRC samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) showed significantly upregulated MARCH9 expression by individual cancer stage, histological subtype, and nodal metastasis status. Knockdown of MARCH9 inhibited, while MARCH9 overexpression promoted, CRC cell proliferation and migration. Knockdown of MARCH9 also induced CRC cell apoptosis and caused cell cycle arrest. Further investigation showed that MARCH9 promoted CRC progression by downregulating the expression of a deubiquitinase cylindromatosis ( CYLD ) gene and activating p65, a member of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) protein family. Finally, in vivo xenograft studies confirmed that MARCH9 knockdown suppressed tumor growth in nude mice. Thus, this study demonstrated that MARCH9 may be a novel and effective therapeutic target for CRC therapy.

    Abstract: Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) visible on MRI can be asymptomatic. We sought to develop and validate a model for detecting CSVD in rural older adults. Methods This study included 1,192 participants in the MRI sub-study within the Multidomain Interventions to Delay Dementia and Disability in Rural China. Total sample was randomly divided into training set and validation set. MRI markers of CSVD were assessed following the international criteria, and total CSVD burden was assessed on a scale from 0 to 4. Logistic regression analyses were used to screen risk factors and develop the diagnostic model. A nomogram was used to visualize the model. Model performance was assessed using the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration plot, and decision curve analysis. Results The model included age, high blood pressure, white blood cell count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and history of cerebral infarction. The AUC was 0.71 (95% CI, 0.67–0.76) in the training set and 0.69 (95% CI, 0.63–0.76) in the validation set. The model showed high coherence between predicted and observed probabilities in both the training and validation sets. The model had higher net benefits than the strategy assuming all participants either at high risk or low risk of CSVD for probability thresholds ranging 50–90% in the training set, and 65–98% in the validation set. Conclusion A model that integrates routine clinical factors could detect CSVD in older adults, with good discrimination and calibration. The model has implication for clinical decision-making.

    Abstract: The mid-transverse colon cancer is relatively uncommon in all colon cancers and the optimal surgical approach of mid-transverse colon cancer remains debatable. Aim and Objectives Our study aimed to depict the techniques and outcomes of laparoscopic transverse colectomy in one single clinical center and compare this surgical approach to traditional laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and laparoscopic left hemicolectomy. Method This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with mid-transverse colon cancer in one single clinical center from February 2012 to October 2020. The enrolled patients were divided into two groups undergoing laparoscopic transverse colectomy and laparoscopic right/left hemicolectomy, respectively. The intraoperative, postoperative complications, oncological outcomes and functional outcomes were compared between the two groups. The primary endpoint was disease free survival (DFS). Results The study enrolled 70 patients with 40 patients undergoing laparoscopic transverse colectomy and 30 patients undergoing laparoscopic hemicolectomy. The intraoperative accidental hemorrhage and multiple organ resection occurred similarly in the two groups. In transverse colectomy, caudal-to-cephalic approach was likely to harvest more lymph nodes although require more operation time than cephalic-to-caudal approach (23.1 ± 14.3 vs. 13.4 ± 5.4 lymph nodes, P  = 0.004; 184.3 ± 37.1 min vs. 146.3 ± 44.4 min, P  = 0.012). The laparoscopic transverse colectomy was marginally associated with lower incidence of overall postoperative complications and shorter postoperative hospital stay although without statistical significance (8(20.0%) vs. 12(40.0%), P  = 0.067; 7(5–12) vs. 7(5–18), P  = 0.060). The 3-year DFS showed no significant difference (3-year DFS 89.7% in transverse colectomy vs. 89.9% in hemicolectomy, P  = 0.688) between the two groups. The alternating consistency of defecation occurred significantly less after laparoscopic transverse colectomy than laparoscopic hemicolectomy (15(51.7%) vs. 20(80.0%), P  = 0.030). Conclusion The laparoscopic transverse colectomy is technically feasible with satisfactory oncological and functional outcomes for mid-transverse colon cancer. Performing the caudal-to-cephalic approach might be more advantageous in lymphadenectomy.

    Abstract: Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in old age and poses a severe threat to the health and life of the elderly. However, traditional diagnostic methods and the ATN diagnostic framework have limitations in clinical practice. Developing novel biomarkers and diagnostic models is necessary to complement existing diagnostic procedures. Methods: The AD expression profile dataset GSE63060 was downloaded from the NCBI GEO public database for preprocessing. AD-related differentially expressed genes were screened using a weighted co-expression network and differential expression analysis, and functional enrichment analysis was performed. Subsequently, we screened hub genes by random forest, analyzed the correlation between hub genes and immune cells using ssGSEA, and finally built an AD diagnostic model using an artificial neural network and validated it. Results: Based on the random forest algorithm, we screened a total of seven hub genes from AD-related DEGs, based on which we confirmed that hub genes play an essential role in the immune microenvironment and successfully established a novel diagnostic model for AD using artificial neural networks, and validated its effectiveness in the publicly available datasets GSE63060 and GSE97760. Conclusion: Our study establishes a reliable model for screening and diagnosing AD that provides a theoretical basis for adding diagnostic biomarkers for the AD gene.

    Abstract: To date, the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease is still not fully elucidated. Much evidence suggests that Ferroptosis plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of AD, but little is known about its molecular immunological mechanisms. Therefore, this study aims to comprehensively analyse and explore the molecular mechanisms and immunological features of Ferroptosis-related genes in the pathogenesis of AD. Materials and methods We obtained the brain tissue dataset for AD from the GEO database and downloaded the Ferroptosis-related gene set from FerrDb for analysis. The most relevant Hub genes for AD were obtained using two machine learning algorithms (Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multiple support vector machine recursive feature elimination (mSVM-RFE)). The study of the Hub gene was divided into two parts. In the first part, AD patients were genotyped by unsupervised cluster analysis, and the different clusters’ immune characteristics were analysed. A PCA approach was used to quantify the FRGscore. In the second part: we elucidate the biological functions involved in the Hub genes and their role in the immune microenvironment by integrating algorithms (GSEA, GSVA and CIBERSORT). Analysis of Hub gene-based drug regulatory networks and mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA regulatory networks using Cytoscape. Hub genes were further analysed using logistic regression models. Results Based on two machine learning algorithms, we obtained a total of 10 Hub genes. Unsupervised clustering successfully identified two different clusters, and immune infiltration analysis showed a significantly higher degree of immune infiltration in type A than in type B, indicating that type A may be at the peak of AD neuroinflammation. Secondly, a Hub gene-based Gene-Drug regulatory network and a ceRNA regulatory network were successfully constructed. Finally, a logistic regression algorithm-based AD diagnosis model and Nomogram diagram were developed. Conclusion Our study provides new insights into the role of Ferroptosis-related molecular patterns and immune mechanisms in AD, as well as providing a theoretical basis for the addition of diagnostic markers for AD.
