    Abstract: Monocytes have been reported to be important mediators of the protective effect of exercise against the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study aims explored the mechanism by which monocytes achieve this. Using single cell transcriptome analysis, results showed that CD14 + and CD16 + monocytes interacted with other cells in the circulating blood. TNF , CCR1 , APP , and AREG , the key ligand-receptor-related genes, were found to be differentially expressed between exercise-treated and AD patients. The SCENIC analysis was performed to identify individual clusters of the key transcription factors (TFs). Nine clusters (M1-M9) were obtained from the co-expression network. Among the identified TFs, MAFB , HES4 , and FOSL1 were found to be differentially expressed in AD. Moreover, the M4 cluster to which MAFB , HES4 , and FOSL1 belonged was defined as the signature cluster for AD phenotype. Differential analysis by bulkRNA-seq revealed that the expression of TNF , CCR1 , and APP were all upregulated after exercise ( p & lt; 0.05). And ATF3 , MAFB , HES4 , and KLF4 that were identified in M4 clusters may be the TFs that regulate TNF , CCR1 , and APP in exercise prescription. After that, APP , CCR1 , TNF , ATF3 , KLF4 , HES4 , and MAFB formed a regulatory network in the ERADMT gene set, and all of them were mechanistically linked. The ERADMT gene set has been found to be a potential risk marker for the development of AD and can be used as an indicator of compliance to exercise therapy in AD patients. Using single-cell integration analysis, a network of exercise-regulating TFs in monocytes was constructed for AD disease. The constructed network reveals the mechanism by which exercise regulated monocytes to confer therapeutic benefits against AD and its complications. However, this study, as a bioinformatic research, requires further experimental validation.

    Abstract: Introduction. Regeneration of fibrochondrocytes is essential for the healing of the tendon-bone interface (TBI), which is similar to the formation of neurogenic heterotopic ossification (HO). Through single-cell integrative analysis, this study explored the homogeneity of HO cells and fibrochondrocytes. Methods. This study integrated six datasets, namely, GSE94683, GSE144306, GSE168153, GSE138515, GSE102929, and GSE110993. The differentiation trajectory and key transcription factors (TFs) for HO occurrence were systematically analyzed by integrating single-cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing, bulk RNA sequencing, and assay of transposase accessible chromatin seq. The differential expression and enrichment pathways of TFs in heterotopically ossified tissues were identified. Results. HO that mimicked pathological cells was classified into HO1 and HO2 cell subsets. Results of the pseudo-temporal sequence analysis suggested that HO2 is a differentiated precursor cell of HO1. The analysis of integrated scRNA data revealed that ectopically ossified cells have similar transcriptional characteristics to cells in the fibrocartilaginous zone of tendons. The modified SCENIC method was used to identify specific transcriptional regulators associated with ectopic ossification. Xbp1 was defined as a common key transcriptional regulator of ectopically ossified tissues and the fibrocartilaginous zone of tendons. Subsequently, the CellPhoneDB database was completed for the cellular ligand-receptor analysis. With further pathway screening, this study is the first to propose that Xbp1 may upregulate the Notch signaling pathway through Jag1 transcription. Twenty-four microRNAs were screened and were found to be potentially associated with upregulation of XBP1 expression after acute ischemic stroke. Conclusion. A systematic analysis of the differentiation landscape and cellular homogeneity facilitated a molecular understanding of the phenotypic similarities between cells in the fibrocartilaginous region of tendon and HO cells. Furthermore, by identifying Xbp1 as a hub regulator and by conducting a ligand–receptor analysis, we propose a potential Xbp1/Jag1/Notch signaling pathway.

    Abstract: Objective: Exercise can produce a large number of cytokines that may benefit cancer patients, including Interleukin 15 (IL-15). IL-15 is a cytokine that has multiple functions in regulating the adaptive and innate immune systems and tumorigenesis of lung and breast cancers. However, the roles of IL-15 in other types of cancer remain unknown. In this article, we try to systematically analyze if IL-15 is a potential molecular biomarker for predicting patient prognosis in pan-cancer and its connection with anti-cancer effects of exercise. Methods: The expression of IL-15 was detected by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, Human protein Atlas (HPA), and Genotype Tissue-Expression (GTEX) database. Analysis of IL-15 genomic alterations and protein expression in human organic tissues was analyzed by the cBioPortal database and HPA. The correlations between IL-15 expression and survival outcomes, clinical features, immune-associated cell infiltration, and ferroptosis/cuproptosis were analyzed using the TCGA, ESTIMATE algorithm, and TIMER databases. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed to evaluate the biological functions of IL-15 in pan-cancer. Results: The differential analysis suggested that the level of IL-15 mRNA expression was significantly downregulated in 12 tumor types compared with normal tissues, which is similar to the protein expression in most cancer types. The high expression of IL-15 could predict the positive survival outcome of patients with LUAD (lung adenocarcinoma), COAD (colon adenocarcinoma), COADREAD (colon and rectum adenocarcinoma), ESCA (esophageal carcinoma), SKCM (skin cutaneous melanoma), UCS (uterine carcinosarcoma), and READ (rectum adenocarcinoma). Moreover, amplification was found to be the most frequent mutation type of IL-15 genomic. Furthermore, the expression of IL-15 was correlated to the infiltration levels of various immune-associated cells in pan-cancer assessed by the ESTIMATE algorithm and TIMER database. In addition, IL-15 is positively correlated with ferroptosis/cuproptosis-related genes (ACSL4 and LIPT1) in pan-cancer. Levels of IL-15 were reported to be elevated in humans for 10–120 min following an acute exercise. Therefore, we hypothesized that the better prognosis of pan-cancer patients with regular exercise may be achieved by regulating level of IL-15. Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that IL-15 is a potential molecular biomarker for predicting patient prognosis, immunoreaction, and ferroptosis/cuproptosis in pan-cancer and partly explained the anti-cancer effects of exercise.

    Abstract: Background. The dysregulation of circular RNAs (circRNAs) participates in the malignant progression of multiple cancers, including osteosarcoma (OS). However, the role of circ_0097271 in OS development remains unclear. We thus aimed at unveiling the functional role and mechanism of circ_0097271 in OS. Methods. The expressions of circ_0097271, miR-640, and MCAM in OS were analyzed by qPCR. Cell proliferation and migration were inspected by CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, and Transwell assay. Circ_0097271’s role in vivo was assayed by establishing animal models. The predicted binding relationship between miR-640 and circ_0097271 or MCAM was verified by dual-luciferase reporter or RIP assay. Results. Circ_0097271’s expression was enhanced in OS samples and cells. The knockdown of circ_0097271 restrained OS cell growth and migration, and its downregulation also blocked solid tumor growth in vivo. Circ_0097271 targeted miR-640 and negatively modulated miR-640 expression. MiR-640 was poorly expressed in OS, and its depletion recovered OS cell growth and migration that were repressed by circ_0097271 knockdown. MiR-640 bound to MCAM 3’UTR and thus suppressed MCAM expression. MCAM knockdown repressed OS cell growth and migration, while additional miR-640 depletion partially abolished the anticancer effects of MCAM knockdown in OS cells. Conclusion. Circ_0097271 is an oncogenic driver and contributes to OS development via targeting the miR-640/MCAM pathway, which provides a potential opinion for OS treatment.

    Abstract: The initiation and progression of cancer depend on the genetic alterations inherent in cancer cells, coupled with the mutual interplay of cancer cells with the surrounding tumor stroma. The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family, as a mesenchymal growth factor, was involved in tumor progression by affecting the surrounding tumor stroma in some cancer types. However, the association of the PDGF family with the ovarian cancer stroma remains elusive. In our study, we first explored the expression pattern of the PDGF family using RNA expression profiles from public databases. We found that the PDGF family was highly expressed in tumor stroma compared with the corresponding epithelial components of ovarian cancer. In particular, PDGF receptors were weakly expressed in ovarian cancer tissues compared with the respective normal tissues; even in tumor mass, PDGF receptors were predominantly expressed by tumor stroma rather than ovarian cancer cells. Importantly, functional enrichment analyses and correlation analyses revealed that the PDGF family was strongly associated with activated stromal scores in ovarian cancer, including higher stromal scores, enriched pathways related to the extracellular matrix (ECM) organization and remodeling, elevated cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) infiltration, and increased tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) infiltration, especially macrophage M2. Besides, the positive correlations of the PDGF family with CAFs infiltration and macrophage M2 infiltration were observed in other various cancer types. Of note, the PDGF family was also involved in tumor progression-related pathways, such as transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt (PI3K-Akt) signaling. Higher expressions of PDGF receptors were also observed in ovarian cancer patients with venous or lymphatic invasion. Furthermore, we uncovered the prognostic prediction of the PDGF family in ovarian cancer and constructed a PDGF family-based risk prognosis model with a hazard ratio of 1.932 ( 95 % confidence   interval   CI = 1.27 – 2.95 ) and P value 〈 0.01 ( AUC = 0.782 , 0.752 for 1 year and 2 years, respectively). Taken together, we demonstrated that ovarian cancers with high PDGF family expression biologically exhibit malignant progression behaviors as well as poor clinical survival, which is attributed to the activated tumor stroma in ovarian cancer.

    Abstract: Recent studies have shown that physical activities can prevent aging-related neurodegeneration. Exercise improves the metabolic landscape of the body. However, the role of these differential metabolites in preventing neurovascular unit degeneration (NVU) is still unclear. Here, we performed single-cell analysis of brain tissue from young and old mice. Normalized mutual information (NMI) was used to measure heterogeneity between each pair of cells using the non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) method. Astrocytes and choroid plexus epithelial cells (CPC), two types of CNS glial cells, differed significantly in heterogeneity depending on their aging status and intercellular interactions. The MetaboAnalyst 5.0 database and the scMetabolism package were used to analyze and calculate the differential metabolic pathways associated with aging in the CPC. These mRNAs and corresponding proteins were involved in the metabolites (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid, 2-Hydroxyglutarate, 2-Ketobutyric acid, 3-Hydroxyanthranilic acid, Fumaric acid, L-Leucine, and Oxidized glutathione pathways in CPC. Our results showed that CPC age heterogeneity-associated proteins (ECHS1, GSTT1, HSD17B10, LDHA, and LDHB) might be directly targeted by the metabolite of oxidized glutathione (GSSG). Further molecular dynamics and free-energy simulations confirmed the insight into GSSG’s targeting function and free-energy barrier on these CPC age heterogeneity-associated proteins. By inhibiting these proteins in CPC, GSSG inhibits brain energy metabolism, whereas exercise improves the metabolic pathway activity of CPC in NVU by regulating GSSG homeostasis. In order to develop drugs targeting neurodegenerative diseases, further studies are needed to understand how physical exercise enhances NVU function and metabolism by modulating CPC-glial cell interactions.

    Abstract: Currently, only a few studies have examined the link between dental health, cognitive impairment, and physical activity. The current study examined the relationship between denture use and physical activity in elderly patients with different cognitive abilities. Methods The study data was sourced from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database, which included information on denture use and amount of daily physical activity undertaken by older persons. Physical activity was categorized into three levels using the International Physical Activity General Questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Scale (IPAQ) rubric. The relationship between denture use and physical activity in middle-aged and older persons with varying degrees of cognitive functioning was studied using logistic regression models. Results A total of 5,892 older people with varying cognitive abilities were included. Denture use was linked to physical activity in the cognitively healthy 60 + age group ( p = 0.004). Denture use was positively related with moderate physical activity in the population (odds ratio, OR: 1.336, 95% confidence interval: 1.173–1.520, p & lt; 0.001), according to a multivariate logistic regression analysis, a finding that was supported by the calibration curve. Furthermore, the moderate physical activity group was more likely to wear dentures than the mild physical activity group among age-adjusted cognitively unimpaired middle-aged and older persons (OR: 1.213, 95% CI: 1.053–1.397, p & lt; 0.01). In a fully adjusted logistic regression model, moderate physical activity population had increased ORs of 1.163 (95% CI: 1.008–1.341, p & lt; 0.05) of dentures and vigorous physical activity population had not increased ORs of 1.016 (95% CI: 0.853–1.210, p & gt; 0.05), compared with mild physical activity population. Conclusion This findings revealed that wearing dentures affects physical activity differently in older persons with different cognitive conditions. In cognitively unimpaired older adults, wearing dentures was associated with an active and appropriate physical activity status.

    Abstract: Cell division cycle 6 (cdc6) is a key factor of DNA replication initiation license system and a proto‐oncogene. It has been detected in some tumor tissues to aid cancer diagnosis in many research projects. However, it remains unclear that if cdc6 could be detected in the peripheral blood, just like liquid biopsy, in solid tumor patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of cdc6 as a biomarker for circulating tumor cells in patients with lung cancer. Methods We first detected the expression of cdc6 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and tumor cells by in situ hybridization with cdc6 RNA probe. Then, we examined the expression of cdc6 in PBMCs from health individual, mononuclear cells from cord blood, or A549 cell line by RT‐qPCR. Furthermore, we used RT‐qPCR to test the cdc6 expression in PBMCs from tumor patients (test group) and non‐tumor individuals as a control group. Chi‐square test with Fisher's exact test was used to analyze the statistical significance of the difference. P   〈  .05 is considered as statistically significant difference. Results When compared the cdc6 expression in cells from difference sources, we found that A549 tumor cell line had the strongest expression of cdc6, samples from cord blood showed the least expression level, indicating the detection strategy of RT‐qPCR is reasonable. Using this method, we studied whether cdc6 in Peripheral blood could be detected as a biomarker by examining cdc6 expression from PBMCs of patients with lung cancer. We found 20% of patients with lung cancer were cdc6 positive in PBMCs, whereas only 4.26% was found positive in the control group ( P  = .039, P   〈  .05). Conclusion Cell division cycle 6 has a potential to be used as a circulating tumor cell biomarker for lung cancer. Further study in clinical application is still broad needed.
