Diabetes mellitus in patients with type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis at diagnosis and after corticosteroid therapy

Background:A high prevalence of diabetes mellitus(DM)coexisting with autoimmune pancreatitis(AIP)is observed.However,evidence on the circumstances under which corticosteroid therapy(CST)for AIP improves or worsens DM is scarce.This study aimed to demonstrate and identify predictors of DM control under the influence of CST.Methods:Patients diagnosed with type 1 AIP were enrolled from a prospectively maintained cohort and were classified into three groups according to the chronology in which AIP and DM were diagnosed:pre-existing DM(pDM),concurrent DM(cDM),and non-DM(nDM).The responses of DM to CST were assessed when corticosteroid was ceased or tapered to a maintenance dose and classified as‘improvement’and‘non-improvement’(including‘no change’and‘exacerbation’).Results:Among 101 patients with type 1 AIP,52(51.5%)patients were complicated with DM at the time of AIP diagnosis,with 36 patients in the cDM group and 16 patients in the pDM group.The incidences of diffuse pancreatic swelling(72.2%)and pancreatic body/tail involvement(91.7%)were significantly higher in the cDM group than in both the pDM and nDM groups.Of the 52 patients with DM,CST was administered in 48 cases.Multivariate logistic analysis identified that elevated serum gamma-glutamyl transferase(GGT)level at AIP diagnosis[odds ratio(OR)=0.032,95%confidence interval(CI):0.003-0.412,P=0.008]and pancreatic atrophy after CST(OR=0.027,95%CI:0.003-0.295,P=0.003)were negatively associated with DM control improvement.Conclusions:Patients with diffuse pancreatic swelling and pancreatic body/tail involvement in pancreatitis tended to be complicated with cDM at AIP diagnosis.CST exerted a beneficial effect on the clinical course of DM in nearly half of the AIP patients complicated with DM at diagnosis,particularly in those without elevated serum GGT levels at diagnosis and who did not experience pancreatic atrophy after CST.

Anti-PD1 antibody and not anti-LAG-3 antibody improves the antitumor effect of photodynamic therapy for treating metastatic breast cancer

Photodynamic therapy(PDT)has limited effects in treating metastatic breast cancer.Immune checkpoints can deplete the function of immune cells;however,the expression of immune checkpoints after PDT is unclear.This study investigates whether the limited e±cacy of PDT is due to upregulated immune checkpoints and tries to combine the PDT and immune checkpoint inhibitor to observe the e±cacy.A metastatic breast cancer model was treated by PDT mediated by hematoporphyrin derivatives(HpD-PDT).The anti-tumor effect of HpD-PDT was observed,as well as CD4þT,CD8þT and calreticulin(CRT)by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence.Immune checkpoints on T cells were analyzed byflow cytometry after HpD-PDT.When combining PDT with immune checkpoint inhibitors,the antitumor effect and immune effect were assessed.For HpD-PDT at 100 mW/cm2 and 40,60 and 80 J/cm2,primary tumors were suppressed and CD4þT,CD8þT and CRT were elevated;however,distant tumors couldn't be inhibited and survival could not be prolonged.Immune checkpoints on T cells,especially PD1 and LAG-3 after HpD-PDT,were upregulated,which may explain the reason for the limited HpD-PDT effect.After PDT combined with anti-PD1 antibody,but not with anti-LAG-3 antibody,both the primary and distant tumors were signi-cantly inhibited and the survival time was prolonged,additionally,CD4þT,CD8þT,IFN-þCD4þT and TNF-þCD4þT cells were signi-cantly increased compared with HpD-PDT.HpD-PDT could not combat metastatic breast cancer.PD1 and LAG-3 were upregulated after HpD-PDT.Anti-PD1 antibody,but not anti-LAG-3 antibody,could augment the antitumor effect of HpD-PDT for treating metastatic breast cancer.

Tumor-infiltrating T-Lymphocyte immunity-related immune tolerance and anti–programmed cell death protein 1/ligand of programmed cell death protein 1 therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma

Systemic therapy has become the standard treatment for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)whose treatment options are limited.However,the long-term patient response to drugs and the survival outcomes remain a concern.With increasing exploration of the HCC microenvironment,particularly in terms of T lymphocyte immunity,a new era of immunomolecular targeted therapy,based on molecular signaling,has arrived for advanced HCC.In the study of immune tolerance of the intrinsic HCC microenvironment,we found that multiple immunosuppressive mechanisms and immune checkpoint inhibitors,such as anti–programmed cell death protein 1/ligand of programmed cell death protein 1 therapy,have improved clinical outcomes in some patients with advanced HCC.Furthermore,various combination therapies have been investigated,and HCC types have been categorized into different types based on anti–programmed cell death protein 1(PD-1)/ligand of programmed cell death protein 1(PD-L1)treatment.In this paper,we first discuss the tumor-infiltrating T lymphocyte immunity and immune tolerance of HCC.We then clarify the basic mechanism of anti–PD-1/PD-L1 therapy and discuss the types of HCC based on anti–PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.Thereafter,we explain the relevant studies and mechanisms of combination therapy of anti–PD-1/PD-L1 with antiangiogenesis drugs or multikinase kinase inhibitors,anti–T lymphocyte–related signaling pathways in HCC,and other anti-CD8+T cell immune checkpoints.In this way,this review offers a deeper understanding of anti–PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy for advanced HCC,in order to provide better individualized treatments for patients with advanced HCC.

受体相互作用蛋白激酶1调节癌症进展和免疫反应的研究现状

受体相互作用蛋白激酶1(receptor-interacting protein kinase 1,RIPK1)是一种多结构域丝氨酸/苏氨酸蛋白激酶。它通过磷酸化特定的蛋白质,引起下游的信号转导和生物效应。近年来,随着对RIPK1的深入研究,学者发现其在自身免疫性疾病、神经退行性疾病,以及多种实体瘤和血液肿瘤中具有重要意义。一方面,RIPK1通过激活特定通路如核因子-κB(nuclear factor-κB,NF-κB)和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(mitogen-activated protein kinase,MAPK)等促进细胞存活及炎症反应。另一方面,RIPK1通过与胱天蛋白酶-8(cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-8,caspase-8)作用促进凋亡,或与RIPK3和混合谱系激酶结构域样假激酶(mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein,MLKL)作用促进坏死性凋亡的发生。RIPK1作为上游信号在不同肿瘤患者中表达水平不同。其支架功能和激酶活性可以调节癌症进展,也可以启动机体适应性免疫,抑制肿瘤进展;此外,还能产生免疫抑制性肿瘤微环境而促进肿瘤的发展。其双重作用在调节癌症的发生、发展及机体免疫反应方面都有所展现,可以作为新的治疗靶点控制癌症进展。该文从RIPK1的结构入手,深入探讨其功能,特别是其在调节癌症进展和免疫反应方面的功能,为癌症靶向药物的开发提供新的思路。

金匮肾气丸联用cART对HIV-1感染者的疗效及不良反应分析

获得性免疫缺陷综合征(acquired immunodeficiency syndrome,AIDS)的主要治疗方法为联合抗逆转录病毒治疗(combined antiretroviral therapy,cART),但部分患者由于免疫功能重建不全和不良反应,可能出现药物性肝损伤、消化功能下降、神经系统毒性和代谢紊乱等,严重影响了抗病毒疗效和患者生存质量,已成为AIDS治疗领域的瓶颈[1]。部分国家资助的中医药防治AIDS科研课题提出正虚(主要为肾虚)是AIDS发生发展的内在病理基础,以肾气与肾阴肾阳的功能下降为主要特征[2-3]。补肾制剂可能是缓解人类免疫缺陷病毒(human immunodeficiency virus,HIV)感染患者病情和不良反应的可靠方式。金匮肾气丸是由地黄、山药、茯苓、牡丹皮、山茱萸、牛膝、泽泻等多味中药制成的综合制剂[4],具有温补肾阳、化气行水的作用。本研究首次采用金匮肾气丸与cART联用治疗HIV-1感染者,比较了金匮肾气丸与cART联用、单用cART对HIV-1感染者抗病毒疗效和不良反应的差异,试图为探索HIV-1感染者治疗的新途径提供参考。

Brain and spinal cord trauma:what we know about the therapeutic potential of insulin growth factor 1 gene therapy

Although little attention has been paid to cognitive and emotional dysfunctions observed in patients after spinal co rd injury,several reports have described impairments in cognitive abilities.Our group also has contributed significantly to the study of cognitive impairments in a rat model of spinal co rd injury.These findings are very significant because they demonstrate that cognitive and mood deficits are not induced by lifestyle changes,drugs of abuse,and combined medication.They are related to changes in brain structures involved in cognition and emotion,such as the hippocampus.Chronic spinal cord injury decreases neurogenesis,enhances glial reactivity leading to hippocampal neuroinflammation,and trigge rs cognitive deficits.These brain distal abnormalities are recently called te rtiary damage.Given that there is no treatment for Tertiary Damage,insulin growth factor 1 gene therapy emerges as a good candidate.Insulin growth factor 1 gene thera py recove rs neurogenesis and induces the polarization from pro-inflammato ry towards anti-inflammatory microglial phenotypes,which represents a potential strategy to treat the neuroinflammation that supports te rtiary damage.Insulin growth factor 1 gene therapy can be extended to other central nervous system pathologies such as traumatic brain injury where the neuroinflammatory component is crucial.Insulin growth factor 1 gene therapy could emerge as a new therapeutic strategy for treating traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury.

HIV-1 Subtype Diversity and Factors Affecting Drug Resistance among Patients with Virologic Failure in Antiretroviral Therapy in Hainan Province,China,2014–2020

Objective This study aimed to determine the HIV-1 subtype distribution and HIV drug resistance(HIVDR)in patients with ART failure from 2014 to 2020 in Hainan,China.Methods A 7-year cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV/AIDS patients with ART failure in Hainan.We used online subtyping tools and the maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree to confirm the HIV subtypes with pol sequences.Drug resistance mutations(DRMs)were analyzed using the Stanford University HIV Drug Resistance Database.Results A total of 307 HIV-infected patients with ART failure were included,and 241 available pol sequences were obtained.Among 241 patients,CRF01_AE accounted for 68.88%,followed by CRF07_BC(17.00%)and eight other subtypes(14.12%).The overall prevalence of HIVDR was 61.41%,and the HIVDR against non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors(NNRTIs),nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors(NRTIs),and protease inhibitors(PIs)were 59.75%,45.64%,and 2.49%,respectively.Unemployed patients,hypoimmunity or opportunistic infections in individuals,and samples from 2017 to 2020 increased the odd ratios of HIVDR.Also,HIVDR was less likely to affect female patients.The common DRMs to NNRTIs were K103N(21.99%)and Y181C(20.33%),and M184V(28.21%)and K65R(19.09%)were the main DRMs against NRTIs.Conclusion The present study highlights the HIV-1 subtype diversity in Hainan and the importance of HIVDR surveillance over a long period.

Cocktail hepatocarcinoma therapy by a super-assembled nano-pill targeting XPO1 and ATR synergistically

Intensive cancer treatment with drug combination is widely exploited in the clinic but suffers from inconsistent pharmacokinetics among different therapeutic agents.To overcome it,the emerging nanomedicine offers an unparalleled opportunity for encapsulating multiple drugs in a nano-carrier.Herein,a two-step super-assembled strategy was performed to unify the pharmacokinetics of a peptide and a small molecular compound.In this proof-of-concept study,the bioinformatics analysis firstly revealed the potential synergies towards hepatoma therapy for the associative inhibition of exportin 1(XPO1)and ataxia telangiectasia mutated-Rad3-related(ATR),and then a super-assembled nano-pill(gold nano drug carrier loaded AZD6738 and 97110 amino acids of apoptin(AP)(AA@G))was constructed through camouflaging AZD6738(ATR small-molecule inhibitor)-binding human serum albumin onto the AP-Au supramolecular nanoparticle.As expected,both in vitro and in vivo experiment results verified that the AA@G possessed extraordinary biocompatibility and enhanced therapeutic effect through inducing cell cycle arrest,promoting DNA damage and inhibiting DNA repair of hepatoma cell.This work not only provides a co-delivery strategy for intensive liver cancer treatment with the clinical translational potential,but develops a common approach to unify the pharmacokinetics of peptide and small-molecular compounds,thereby extending the scope of drugs for developing the advanced combination therapy.

Human pluripotent stem cell-derivedβcells:Truly immature isletβcells for type 1 diabetes therapy?

A century has passed since the Nobel Prize winning discovery of insulin,which still remains the mainstay treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM)to this day.True to the words of its discoverer Sir Frederick Banting,“insulin is not a cure for diabetes,it is a treatment”,millions of people with T1DM are dependent on daily insulin medications for life.Clinical donor islet transplantation has proven that T1DM is curable,however due to profound shortages of donor islets,it is not a mainstream treatment option for T1DM.Human pluripotent stem cell derived insulin-secreting cells,pervasively known as stem cell-derivedβcells(SC-βcells),are a promising alternative source and have the potential to become a T1DM treatment through cell replacement therapy.Here we briefly review how isletβcells develop and mature in vivo and several types of reported SC-βcells produced using different ex vivo protocols in the last decade.Although some markers of maturation were expressed and glucose stimulated insulin secretion was shown,the SC-βcells have not been directly compared to their in vivo counterparts,generally have limited glucose response,and are not yet fully matured.Due to the presence of extra-pancreatic insulin-expressing cells,and ethical and technological issues,further clarification of the true nature of these SC-βcells is required.

目的:探究瘢痕疙瘩血管内血小板内皮细胞黏附分子1(platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1,PECAM-1)与平滑肌肌动蛋白(smooth muscle actin,SMA)的表达水平对瘢痕疙瘩综合治疗预后的影响。方法:回顾性分析2020年8月至2022年6月江苏大学附属医院皮肤科门诊收治的瘢痕疙瘩患者61例,共计69处瘢痕疙瘩,均接受手术切除与^(90)Sr同位素敷贴综合治疗,免疫组织化学染色检测手术切除瘢痕疙瘩标本血管内PECAM-1及SMA表达水平,电话及门诊随访6个月。结果:19处(27.5%)瘢痕疙瘩6个月内复发,11处(15.9%)在^(90)Sr同位素敷贴治疗后发生不良反应,复发组PECAM-1与SMA的高表达率均高于未复发组(χ^(2)=7.496,P=0.006;χ^(2)=5.197,P=0.023);治疗后不良反应发生率与PECAM-1及SMA的表达水平无明显关系(χ^(2)=0.172,P=0.935;χ^(2)=1.110,P=0.484)。结论:瘢痕疙瘩血管内PECAM-1及SMA的表达水平与综合治疗预后呈负相关,二者可能是判断瘢痕疙瘩预后的潜在指标。
