    Abstract: Understanding immune cell phenotypes in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is essential for explaining and predicting progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its response to immunotherapy. Here we describe the single-cell transcriptomics of CD45 + immune cells from tumors, normal tissues and blood of NSCLC patients. We identified three clusters of immune cells exerting immunosuppressive effects: CD8 + T cells with exhausted phenotype, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) with a pro-inflammatory M2 phenotype, and regulatory B cells (B regs) with tumor-promoting characteristics. We identified genes that may be mediating T cell phenotypes, including the transcription factors ONECUT2 and ETV4 in exhausted CD8 + T cells, TIGIT and CTL4 high expression in regulatory T cells. Our results highlight the heterogeneity of CD45 + immune cells in the TME and provide testable hypotheses about the cell types and genes that define the TME.

    Abstract: The current American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) system only considered the importance of the size and laterality of lymph nodes while not the positive lymph node number (PLNN) for hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC). Methods A total of 973 patients with HPSCC from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004–2015) were identified. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate the prognostic effects. We applied six Cox regression models to compare the survival prognostic values of PLNN and AJCC systems. Results Positive lymph node number showed a significant association with overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) ( P & lt; 0.001) in univariate and multivariable analyses. The increased PLNN of HPSCC gave rise to poor OS and CSS. The survival model incorporating a composite of PLNN and TNM classification (C-index for OS:0.682, C-index for CSS:0.702) performed better than other models. Conclusions A positive lymph node number could serve as a survival predictor for patients with HPSCC and a complement to enhance the prognostic assessment effects of TNM cancer staging systems.

    Abstract: Cancer has the highest mortality in humans worldwide, and the development of effective drugs remains a key issue. Traditional Chinese medicine Saussurea involucrata (SI) exhibits a series of effects, such as anti-cancer, but the action mechanisms are still unclear. Here, systems pharmacology was applied to reveal its anti-cancer mechanism. First, we screened the active compounds of SI. Then, the compound–target network, target–disease network, and target–pathway network were constructed. DAVID was applied for GOBP analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on cancer-related targets. Seven potential compounds and 187 targets were identified. The target–disease classification network showed that compounds mainly regulated proteins related to cancer, nervous system diseases, and cardiovascular system diseases. Also, SI anti-tumor effect mainly associated with the regulation of NO production, angiogenesis, MAPK, and PKB from GOBP enrichment. Additionally, KEGG pathway enrichment indicated that targets involved in anti-inflammatory action, inhibiting angiogenesis and anti-proliferation or inducing apoptosis. Experimental validation showed that four active compounds could inhibit cell proliferation and promote apoptosis in A549 (except for kaempferol), PC-3, and C6 cells. This study not only provides experimental evidence for further research on SI in cancer treatment but also promotes the development of potential drugs of SI in modern medicine.

    Abstract: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common malignancies in the urinary system. The mortality of advanced RCC remains high despite advances in systemic therapy of RCC. Considering the misdiagnosis of early-stage RCC, the identification of effective biomarkers is of great importance. Tissue inhibitor matrix metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1), which belongs to TIMP gene family, is a natural inhibitor of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). In this study, we found TIMP1 was significantly up-regulated in cell lines and RCC tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that high expression of TIMP1 indicated a poor prognosis. Multivariate analysis further indicated that TIMP1 overexpression was an independent prognostic factor of RCC patients. Furthermore, knockdown of TIMP1 in vitro suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of RCC cells, while upregulating TIMP1 accelerated the proliferation, migration, and invasion of RCC cells. In addition, we also found that TIMP1 prompted the progression of RCC via epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signaling pathway. In conclusion, the present results suggested that TIMP1 indicated poor prognosis of renal cell carcinoma and could serve as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for RCC.

    Abstract: Ovarian cancer (OC) has the highest mortality rate among gynecologic malignancy. Hypoxia is a driver of the malignant progression in OC, which results in poor prognosis. We herein aimed to develop a validated model that was based on the hypoxia genes to systematically evaluate its prognosis in tumor immune microenvironment (TIM). Results We identified 395 hypoxia-immune genes using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). We then established a nine hypoxia-related genes risk model using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression, which efficiently distinguished high-risk patients from low-risk ones. We found that high-risk patients were significantly related to poor prognosis. The high-risk group showed unique immunosuppressive microenvironment, lower antigen presentation, and higher levels of inhibitory cytokines. There were also significant differences in somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) and mutations between the high- and low-risk groups, indicating immune escape in the high-risk group. Tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE) and SubMap algorithms showed that low-risk patients are significantly responsive to programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) inhibitors. Conclusions In this study, we highlighted the clinical significance of hypoxia in OC and established a hypoxia-related model for predicting prognosis and providing potential immunotherapy strategies.

    Abstract: Background: Increasing evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in cancer tumorigenesis and progression. TMPO antisense RNA 1 (TMPO-AS1) has been found to be involved in several cancers by acting as a competing endogenous RNA. However, the potential roles of TMPO-AS1 in bladder cancer (BC) and the potential interactions with proteins remain poorly understood. Methods: The expression of the lncRNA TMPO-AS1 was evaluated via bioinformatic analysis and further validated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Loss- and gain-of-function assays were performed to determine the biological functions of TMPO-AS1 in BC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, chromatin immunoprecipitation, Western blotting, and fluorescence in situ hybridization, as well as RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter assays, were conducted to explore the upstream and downstream molecules interacting with TMPO-AS1. Results: TMPO-AS1 is upregulated in BC. Functional experiments demonstrated that TMPO-AS1 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in BC and inhibits cell apoptosis in vivo and in vitro . Mechanically, E2F1 is responsible for TMPO-AS1 upregulation. Additionally, TMPO-AS1 facilitates the interaction of E2F1 with OTU domain-containing ubiquitin aldehyde binding 1 (OTUB1), leading to E2F1 deubiquitination and stabilization; therefore, TMPO-AS1 promotes BC malignant phenotypes. Furthermore, rescue experiments showed that TMPO-AS1 promotes BC growth in an E2F1-dependent manner. Conclusions: Our study is the first to uncover the novel TMPO-AS1/E2F1 positive regulatory loop important for the promotion of BC malignant behaviors. The TMPO-AS1/E2F1 loop should be considered in the quest for new BC therapeutic options.

    Abstract: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, we found that LINC00467 was significantly highly expressed in bladder cancer through bioinformatic analysis. The present study aimed to explore the role of LINC00467 in bladder cancer and its possible underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods The expression of LINC00467 was obtained from GEO (GSE31189), the TCGA database, and qRT-PCR. The role of LINC00467 in bladder cancer was assessed both in vitro and in vivo . RIP, RNA pulldown, and CO-IP were used to demonstrate the potential mechanism by which LINC00467 regulates the progression of bladder cancer. Results Through the analysis of GEO (GSE133624) and the TCGA database, it was found that LINC00467 was highly expressed in bladder cancer tissues and that the expression of LINC00467 was significantly negatively correlated with patient prognosis. Cell and animal experiments suggest that LINC00467 promotes the proliferation and invasion of bladder cancer cells. On the one hand, LINC00467 can directly bind to NF-kb-p65 mRNA to stabilize its expression. On the other hand, LINC00467 can directly bind to NF-kb-p65 to promote its translocation into the nucleus to activate the NF-κB signaling pathway, which promotes the progression of bladder cancer. Conclusions LINC00467 is highly expressed in bladder cancer and can promote the progression of bladder cancer by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway. Therefore, targeting LINC00467 is very likely to provide a new strategy for the treatment of bladder cancer and for improving patient prognosis.

    Abstract: Currently, the two exocyclic vinyl bridges in the acceptor–donor–acceptor (A–D–A)-type nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) have been widely recognized as one of the most vulnerable sites under external stresses. Embedding the exocyclic vinyl bridges into an aromatic ring could be a feasible solution to stabilize them. Herein, we successfully develop a phenalene-locked vinyl bridge via a titanium tetrachloride—pyridine catalytic Knoevenagel condensation, to synthesize two new A–D–A-type unfused NFAs, EH-FPCN and O-CPCN, wherein malononitrile is used as the electron-deficient terminal group while fluorene and carbazole rings are used as the electron-rich cores, respectively. These two NFAs possess wide bandgaps associated with deep energy levels, and significantly enhanced chemical and photochemical stabilities compared to the analogue molecule O-CzCN with normal exocyclic vinyl bridges. When pairing with a narrow bandgap polymer donor PTB7-Th, the fabricated EH-FPCN- and O-CPCN-based organic solar cells achieved power conversion efficiencies of 0.91 and 1.62%, respectively. The higher efficiencies for O-CPCN is attributed to its better film morphology and higher electron mobility in the blend film. Overall, this work provides a new design strategy to stabilize the vulnerable vinyl bridges of A–D–A-type NFAs.

    Abstract: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common brain tumor, with rapid proliferation and fatal invasiveness. Large-scale genetic and epigenetic profiling studies have identified targets among molecular subgroups, yet agents developed against these targets have failed in late clinical development. We obtained the genomic and clinical data of GBM patients from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) and performed the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox analysis to establish a risk model incorporating 17 genes in the CGGA693 RNA-seq cohort. This risk model was successfully validated using the CGGA325 validation set. Based on Cox regression analysis, this risk model may be an independent indicator of clinical efficacy. We also developed a survival nomogram prediction model that combines the clinical features of OS. To determine the novel classification based on the risk model, we classified the patients into two clusters using ConsensusClusterPlus, and evaluated the tumor immune environment with ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT. We also constructed clinical traits-related and co-expression modules through WGCNA analysis. We identified eight genes ( ANKRD20A4, CLOCK, CNTRL, ICA1, LARP4B, RASA2, RPS6 , and SET ) in the blue module and three genes ( MSH2 , ZBTB34 , and DDX31 ) in the turquoise module. Based on the public website TCGA, two biomarkers were significantly associated with poorer OS. Finally, through GSCALite, we re-evaluated the prognostic value of the essential biomarkers and verified MSH2 as a hub biomarker.
