    Abstract: Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) occurs frequently in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and confers a poor prognosis. Multiplex profiling of primary GACs has been insightful but the underpinnings of PC’s development/progression remain largely unknown. We characterised exome/transcriptome/immune landscapes of PC cells from patients with GAC aiming to identify novel therapeutic targets. Design We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) on 44 PC specimens (43 patients with PC) including an integrative analysis of WES, RNA-seq, immune profile, clinical and pathological phenotypes to dissect the molecular pathogenesis, identifying actionable targets and/or biomarkers and comparison with TCGA primary GACs. Results We identified distinct alterations in PC versus primary GACs, such as more frequent CDH1 and TAF1 mutations, 6q loss and chr19 gain. Alterations associated with aggressive PC phenotypes emerged with increased mutations in TP53, CDH1, TAF1 and KMT2C , higher level of ‘clock-like’ mutational signature, increase in whole-genome doublings, chromosomal instability (particularly, copy number losses), reprogrammed microenvironment, enriched cell cycle pathways, MYC activation and impaired immune response. Integrated analysis identified two main molecular subtypes: ‘mesenchymal-like’ and ‘epithelial-like’ with discriminating response to chemotherapy (31% vs 71%). Patients with the less responsive ‘mesenchymal-like’ subtype had high expression of immune checkpoint T-Cell Immunoglobulin And Mucin Domain-Containing Protein 3 (TIM-3), its ligand galectin-9, V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) and transforming growth factor-β as potential therapeutic immune targets. Conclusions We have uncovered the unique mutational landscape, copy number alteration and gene expression profile of PC cells and defined PC molecular subtypes, which correlated with PC therapy resistance/response. Novel targets and immune checkpoint proteins have been identified with a potential to be translated into clinics.

    Abstract: Background: The prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) patients with metastases is very poor. Understanding of molecular biology is limited. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling plays an important role in many tumor types and expression of Shh/Gli-1, two major molecules in Hh pathway has been documented in GAC. However, their clinical impact on GAC patients particularly in peritoneal metastasis remains elusive. Methods: Expression of Gli1 and Shh were examined using IHC in tissue microarrays containing more than 500 cases of GAC tissues with clinical annotation. The prognostic variables were determined using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. GAC cell lines, patient-derived peritoneal metastatic cells and novel PDX metastatic model were used to determine the functional role of Shh/Gli-1 in vitro and in vivo. Genetic knockout Gli-1 using LentiCRISPR/Cas9 and Hh inhibitor GDC0449 as well as BET inhibitor were used to test their antitumor activities in GAC cell line and patient-derived cells. Cell proliferation, colony formation, invasion, tumor sphere assays and immunofluorescence were performed to evaluate their functionality and effects of targeted therapy. Results: Both Gli1 and Shh expression are significantly overexpressed in GAC tissue. Among 519 GAC cases, 80.76% and 87.02% were positive for nuclear Gli-1 and cytoplasmic Shh expression respectively, while the strong nuclear expression rate for Gli-1 is 69.56% and 50.10% for Shh. In the univariate Cox analysis, the overall survival was shorter for patients with high Gli-1 (p=0.018) or high Shh expression (p=0.038). In the multivariate cox analysis for both markers, only Gli-1 remained as an independently prognostic for short survival. We also observed high Gli-1 nuclear expression correlated with the presence of lymph node metastasis (p=0.032). Gli1 was highly expressed in most human malignant ascites cells. Interestingly, Gli-1 was significantly upregulated in mouse PDX-ascites cells compared to primary mice tumors. Genetic knockdown Gli-1 or pharmacologically inhibition of Gli-1 by GDC0449 Hh inhibitor or BET inhibitor JQ1 decreased Gli-1 and restored E-cadherin expression and significantly suppressed malignant cell properties and reduced population of cancer stem cells (ALDH1+ or CD133+) in patients' derived metastatic cells. Conclusions: These findings indicate that overexpression of Gli1 and Shh plays an important role in progression of peritoneal metastases of GAC. Targeting Gli1/Hh signaling may provide novel therapeutic strategies for GAC patients with peritoneal metastases.

    Abstract: The current COVID-19 pandemic has heavily burdened the global public health system and may keep simmering for years. The frequent emergence of immune escape variants have spurred the search for prophylactic vaccines and therapeutic antibodies that confer broad protection against SARS-CoV-2 variants. Here we show that the bivalency of an affinity maturated fully human single-domain antibody (n3113.1-Fc) exhibits exquisite neutralizing potency against SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus, and confers effective prophylactic and therapeutic protection against authentic SARS-CoV-2 in the host cell receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) humanized mice. The crystal structure of n3113 in complex with the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2, combined with the cryo-EM structures of n3113 and spike ecto-domain, reveals that n3113 binds to the side surface of up-state RBD with no competition with ACE2. The binding of n3113 to this novel epitope stabilizes spike in up-state conformations but inhibits SARS-CoV-2 S mediated membrane fusion, expanding our recognition of neutralization by antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Binding assay and pseudovirus neutralization assay show no evasion of recently prevalent SARS-CoV-2 lineages, including Alpha (B.1.1.7), Beta (B.1.351), Gamma (P.1), and Delta (B.1.617.2) for n3113.1-Fc with Y58L mutation, demonstrating the potential of n3113.1-Fc (Y58L) as a promising candidate for clinical development to treat COVID-19.

    Abstract: Ternary transition metal phosphides (TTMPs) with two-dimensional heterointerface and adjustable electronic structures have been widely studied in hydrogen evolution reactions (HER). However, single-phase TMPs often have inappropriate H* adsorption energy and electronic transfer efficiency in HER. Herein, we utilized the heterogeneity in the crystal structure to design an efficient and stable catalyst from the NiCoP nanowire@NiCoP nanosheet on nickel foam (NW-NiCoP@NS-NiCoP/NF) for HER. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with a heterogeneous matrix on crystal surfaces were grown under different reaction conditions, and non-metallic P was introduced by anion exchange to adjust the electronic structure of the transition metals. The hierarchical structure of homologous NiCoP/NF from the LDH allows for a larger surface area, which results in more active sites and improved gas diffusion. The optimized NW-NiCoP@NS-NiCoP/NF electrode exhibits excellent HER activity, with an overpotential of 144 mV, a Tafel slope of 84.2 mV dec−1 at a current density of 100 mA cm−2 and remarkable stability for more than 500 h in 1.0 M KOH electrolyte. This work provides ideas for elucidating the rational design of structural heterogeneity as an efficient electrocatalyst and the in situ construction of hierarchical structures.

    Abstract: Developing energy production, storage, and conversion technologies based on sustainable or renewable energy is essential to address the energy and environmental crisis. Electrochemical water splitting is one of the most promising approaches to realize the production of green hydrogen. The design of catalytic materials with low cost, high activity, and long‐term stability and the exploration of specific reaction mechanisms are the key focus for the involved electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Recently, substantial efforts have been devoted to the rational design and synthesis of non‐noble metallic heterostructures with fascinating synergistic effects among different components. These heterostructured materials demonstrate comprehensive properties exceeding the estimations by the rule of mixtures and display high activity and long‐term stability in industrial conditions for HER. Herein, the reaction mechanism and key parameters for improving catalytic performance in the HER process are discussed in detail. The latest advances in heterostructures based on synthetic methods and electrocatalytic characteristics from experimental and computational perspectives are summarized according to the role of various components. Herein, insights are provided in this review into an in‐depth understanding of the heterostructures as HER electrocatalysts, and the opportunities and challenges to scale up future‐oriented developments are highlighted.

    Abstract: Despite established functions of PPARδ in lipid metabolism and tumorigenesis, the mechanisms underlying its role in gastric cancer are undefined. Here, we demonstrate that SOX9 was dramatically induced by stably expressing PPARδ and by its agonist GW501516 in human gastric cancer cell lines. PPARδ knockdown in patient-derived gastric cancer cells dramatically reduced SOX9 expression and transcriptional activity, with corresponding decreases in invasion and tumor sphere formation. Mechanistically, PPARδ induced SOX9 transcription through direct interaction with and activation of the Hippo coactivator YAP1. PPARδ–YAP1 interaction occurred via the C-terminal domain of YAP1, and both TEAD- and PPARE-binding sites were required for SOX9 induction. Notably, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genetic ablation of YAP1 or SOX9 abolished PPARδ-mediated oncogenic functions. Finally, expression of PPARδ, YAP1, and SOX9 were significantly correlated with each other and with poor survival in a large cohort of human gastric cancer tissues. Thus, these findings elucidate a novel mechanism by which PPARδ promotes gastric tumorigenesis through interaction with YAP1 and highlights the PPARδ/YAP1/SOX9 axis as a novel therapeutic target in human gastric cancer. Implications: Our discovery of a new model supports a distinct paradigm for PPARδ and a crucial oncogenic function of PPARδ in gastric cancer through convergence on YAP1/TEAD signaling. Therefore, PPARδ/YAP1/SOX9 axis could be a novel therapeutic target that can be translated into clinics.

    Abstract: In SOFT study, subgroup analysis for hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer women younger than 35 years indicated better 5-year DFS in OFS+exemestane arm than OFS+tamoxifen. Since only about 11% of women included were younger than 35 years of age, this subgroup analysis result is underpowered. In addition, there still no specific randomized clinical trial focusing on endocrine treatment in women younger than 35 years of age. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa)+tamoxifen versus GnRHa+AIs in HR+ early breast cancer patients under age 35 with intermediate or high risk for disease recurrence. Study design This is a prospective, open label, multicentre, randomized controlled trial that compared the efficacy of GnRHa+tamoxifen versus GnRHa+AIs in HR+ early breast cancer patients under age 35 with intermediate or high risk for disease recurrence. This study was initiated by the first affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-sen university in 2016. Twenty-four hospitals in China participate in this trial. The protocol was approved by the appropriate regulatory and ethics authorities for each centre. This trial has been registrated at ClinicalTrials.gov. The NCT Number is NCT02914158. Criteria for patient eligibility: 1. Written informed consent must be signed. 2. ECOG≤2. 3. Histologically proven HR+ (ER≥1% by IHC) invasive breast cancer. 4. Age≤35, premenopausal. 5. No distant metastatic disease. 6. T≥2cm or with at least 1 axillary lymph node involved. 7. Patient must accept proper surgery, systemic therapy and radiation therapy if necessary. 8. Laboratory exam criteria for enrollment: hemoglobin ≥10g/dl, white blood cell ≥4,000/mm3, platelets ≥100,000/mm3, glutamic oxalacetic transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase ≤2 times upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin, creatinine clearance rate ≤1.5 times ULN. Criteria for patient ineligibility: 1. Patients who are pregnant or lactating at the time of randomization or refuse to contraception.2. Patients who received organ transplantation. 3. Patients who have other malignant diseases within 5 years. 4. Patients with psychiatric disorder, peripheral or central nerve system disease or any disorder, which compromises ability to give informed consent or participate in this study. 5. Patients with sever hepatic, renal, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive diseases or uncontrolled diabetes. 6. Patients who participate in other clinical trials. 7. Patients who allergy to goserelin, leuprorelin, tamoxifen or AIs. Statistical analysis According to previous results, 5-year DFS for OFS+tamoxifen in HR+ breast cancer patients under age 35 with intermediate or high risk of disease recurrence was 73% vs. 81% for OFS+AIs. This trial designed 80% power to detect a between-group difference using a two-sample log-rank test (two-sided a=0.05). To allow for missing 10% data, the study planned to enroll 680 patients (340 patients for each group) in 5 years. The statistical design assumed that 197 primary end point events should occur during 5-year follow-up and OFS+AIs should decrease 30% DFS relative risk. The calculations were performed using PASS 11. Treatment details Patients enrolled are randomized 1:1 to two arms in 8 weeeks after surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Goserelin 3.6mg or leuprorelin 3.75mg is injected subcutaneously every 28 days for 5 years. Arm A: Tamoxifen 20mg orally daily. Arm B: Exemestane 25mg, letrozole 2.5mg or anastrozole 1mg orally daily. Stratification Stratified by HER2 and axillary lymph node status. Primary end point: Disease free survival. Secondary end point: Overall survival. Invasive Breast Cancer Recurrence-Free Interval. Adverse Effects Rate.

    Abstract: Pyroptosis is an immunogenic cell death and would trigger robust antitumor immunity. However, due to cytoxicity of pyroptosis executors, Gasdermin family proteins, it is indispensable to construct tumor‐specific vectors. Here, we report the development of a novel vector named lipid‐coated poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles coloaded with Gasdermin E expressing plasmid DNA (GSDME‐pDNA) with a heat‐inducible mouse heat shock protein 70 (mHSP70) as the promoter and a photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG) to activate the mHSP70 element. The cellular internalization and transfection rate of the vector were remarkably enhanced by photothermal treatment. And the mHSP70 promoter further improved the gene transfection rate for about 15‐fold. With the combination of oxaliplatin (OXA), the mechanism switch between apoptosis and pyroptosis was fulfilled by cleavage of GSDME through activated caspase‐3, which promoted damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) release and increased the infiltration of immune cells at the tumor site. This combination strategy not only prominently inhibited the growth of the treated tumor, but also exhibited a lethal effect on the distal tumors. Besides, mouse colon cancer cell CT26 overexpressing GSDME after OXA treatment had the potential to be the preventive tumor vaccine. This study provides a novel thought and feasible method for the clinical treatment of colon cancer.
