Increasing research has shown that the abnormal expression of circRNAs is closely related to tumorigenesis, apoptosis, and patient prognosis in cervical cancer. This study aimed to reveal the procancer role of circIL21R in cervical cancer and investigate its related molecular mechanisms. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that circIL21R promotes the progression of cervical cancer via the miR-1205/PTBP1 axis. CircIL21R expression was significantly greater in tumor tissue than in adjacent normal tissue, and higher circIL21R expression indicated shorter survival. We applied MTS assays, EdU assays, and Transwell assays to show that the overexpression of circIL21R promoted cervical cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Mechanistically, circIL21R promoted the expression of PTBP1 by sponging miR-1205. Moreover, rescue assays confirmed that regulating the expression of miR-1205 or PTBP1 could reverse the tumorigenic effect caused by circIL21R overexpression. In addition, circIL21R promoted the tumorigenesis of cervical cancer in vivo. In summary, our study demonstrated that circIL21R was highly expressed in cervical cancer and upregulated PTBP1 expression by acting as a ceRNA for miR-1205, making outstanding contributions to several malignant biological processes in cervical cancers, such as growth, proliferation, and invasion. CircIL21R is a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer.

We aimed to explore what kind of endocrine treatments are optimal for hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer in some specific clinical situations. We searched randomized controlled trials in Embase, Medline, the Cochrane library, and PubMed from inception to April 1, 2020 and performed a network meta-analysis based on a Bayesian fixed-effects model. Progression-free survival (PFS) with hazard ratios and corresponding 95% confidence interval was defined as the primary endpoint, while overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate and serious adverse events were used as secondary endpoints. A total of 35 studies involving 12,285 patients and 24 treatment options were included. In general, most co-treatment options prolonged PFS compared to single-agent therapy, of which aromatase inhibitor (AI) plus everolimus and fulvestrant plus palbociclib were probably the most effective agents, and the latter had the best safety record. However, despite the superior efficacy of fulvestrant plus capecitabine for PFS and OS, palpable toxic effects have been demonstrated for this treatment, so its application must be scrupulously considered. The results of subgroup analysis indicated that fulvestrant combined with palbociclib improved prognosis for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-mutated patients, PI3K-unmutated patients, patients with endocrine therapy resistance, and visceral metastatic patients, while no obvious improvement was detected in OS. Moreover, the efficacy of fulvestrant plus cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors was slightly better than that of AI plus CDK4/6 inhibitors, while AI plus everolimus was more efficacious than fulvestrant combined with everolimus in terms of PFS, OS, and ORR. In conclusion, our results provide moderate evidence that fulvestrant plus palbociclib and AI plus everolimus were the most effective treatments, while the efficacy and safety of fulvestrant plus palbociclib was obviously superior in some specific clinical situations.

Objective: To analyze the risk factors for complications in pregnancy associated with pulmonary hypertension (PH) and to develop a logistic regression model to predict cardiac outcomes. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 249 women with PH, who were followed at the Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Affiliated to the Capital Medical University, from January 2012 to March 2015. All pregnancies were recorded. Overall, 214 cases of pulmonary arterial hypertension were identified. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were performed to determine the risk factors occurring during or after pregnancy in women with PH. Ultimately, six independent risk factors for cardiac events were determined. Results: There were 70 cases of cardiac complications (28.1%) with PH, including 7 cases of maternal death (2.81%). Independent risk factors were rapid progression of symptoms [OR = 3.044, 95% CI (1.042-8.895), P < 0.05], brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) plasma levels >= 300pg/mL [OR= 5.543, 95% CI (1.403-21.896), P < 0.05], severe pulmonary hypertension (PAP >= 80mmHg, 1mmHg = 0.133 kPa) [OR = 6.769, 95% CI (2.748-16.677), P < 0.05], World Health Organization functional class (WHO-FC) III-IV [OR = 6.053, 95% CI (2.638-13.886), P < 0.05], PH pre-pregnancy [OR = 5.434, 95% CI (1.298-22.738), P < 0.05], and delivery >= 28 weeks gestation [OR = 10.876, 95% CI (3.957-29.893), P < 0.05]. Conclusions: Early advice on contraception for patients with PH, and the need for patients to undergo a comprehensive assessment of cardiac function pre-pregnancy are suggested from the results of the present study.

WebAnalysis of gene expression at single-cell resolution in the developing prefrontal cortex of the human embryo reveals a diversity of cell types, elucidates cell lineages and identifies signalling pathways that regulate development.
Human brain evolution is associated with expansion and folding of the neocortex. Increased diversity in neural progenitor (NP) populations (such as basally located radial glia [RG], which reside in an enlarged outer subventricular zone [OSVZ]) likely contributes to this evolutionary expansion, although their characteristics and relative contributions are only partially understood. Through single-cell transcriptional profiling of sorted human NP subpopulations, we identified the primate-specific TMEM14B gene as a marker of basal RG. Expression of TMEM14B in embryonic NPs induces cortical thickening and gyrification in postnatal mice. This is accompanied by SVZ expansion, the appearance of outer RG-like cells, and the proliferation of multiple NP subsets, with proportional increases in all cortical layers and normal lamination. TMEM14B drives NP proliferation by increasing the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of IQGAP1, which in turn promotes G1/S cell cycle transitions. These data show that a single primate-specific gene can drive neurodevelopmental changes that contribute to brain evolution.
Objective To detect the expression difference of AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) in malignant and benign breast tumor, and its impact on patients’ prognosis. Methods The specimens from 50 cases of breast invasive ductal carcinoma and 50 cases of breast fibroma were collected in Beijing Electric Power Hospital between January 2009 and May 2015 by random number table. The expression of ARID1A protein was detected by immunohistochemical EnVision method. The relationship between ARID1A expression and clinicopathological features was analyzed. The 50 breast cancer patients were followed up until December 31, 2015 by phone or reviewing case history. DFS and OS were calculated. The correlations of ARID1A with HER-2, ER and P53 were analyzed by nonparametric Spearman test. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and Log-rank test was used to compare the survival rate. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Results The high expression rate of ARID1A was 46% (23/50) in 50 cases of breast invasive ductal carcinoma, and 72% (36/50) in 50 cases of fibroma, indicating a significant difference (χ2=6. 986, P=0. 008). The expression of ARID1A was significantly different in the patients with different breastfeeding time, histological grade, P53 expression, ER expression, PR expression, molecular types and HER-2 expression (χ2= 4. 177, 4. 726, 4. 177, 5. 469, 14. 661, 5. 469, P<0. 050). ARID1A expression was positively correlated with P53 (r=0. 289, P=0. 042) and ER expression (r=0. 331, P=0. 019), but negatively correlated with HER-2 (r=-0. 372, P=0. 008). The 3-year DFS in TNM stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ patients was significantly higher than that in TNM stage I and Ⅱpatients (85. 5% vs 42. 4%,χ2=9. 657, P=0. 002), and 5-year OS in patients with tumor diameter≤2 cm was significantly higher than that in patients with tumor diameter> 2 cm (100% vs 71. 3%, χ2=5. 598, P=0. 018). The 3-year DFS and 5-year OS in P53 positive patients were significantly higher than those in P53 negative patients respectively (86. 3% vs 45. 5%, χ2= 5. 077, P=0. 024;95. 2% vs 50. 8%, χ2=9. 476, P=0. 002). The 3-year DFS and 5-year OS in patients with high expression of ARID1A were significantly higher than those in patients with low expression of ARID1A(81. 8% vs 70. 2%,χ2=0. 454,P=0. 500;90. 9%vs 76. 1%,χ2 =0. 090,P=0. 765). Multivariable Cox regression model showed that P53 positive was an independent protective factor (P=0. 028, OR=0. 079, 95%CI:0. 008-0. 761), which could affect the OS of breast cancer patients, but ARID1A expression was not an Independent prognostic factor ( P=0. 194, OR=4. 758, 95%CI:0. 453-49. 957). Conclusion The expression of ARID1A in breast cancer tissue is lower than that in breast fibroadenoma, and ARID1A may play an important role in the development of breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To study the impact of severe idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) on pregnancy outcome and to investigate the effect of multidisciplinary approach during pregnancy on the pregnancy outcome in pregnant woman with severe IPAH.METHODS:Between March 2007 and November 2013, 10 pregnant women with severe IPAH undergoing treatment in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were studied retrospectively.Hemodynamic measurements, medical therapy, manner of delivery, anesthetic administration, multidisciplinary management and outcomes were assessed.RESULTS:All 10 cases were first diagnosed at the mean of (24 ± 3) weeks during the pregnancy. The systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) estimated by transthoracic echocardiography was (95.6 ± 1.3) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) .Seven cases of class III and 3 cases of class IV were recorded by World Health Organization functional class.One patient underwent pregnancy termination at gestational age of 21 weeks with no maternal death or complications, nine patients continued pregnancy and all the patients underwent cesarean section. The mean pregnancy length was (31 ± 5) weeks.Nine had cesarean deliveries during continuous epidural anesthesia, and one during general anesthesia. There were three maternal deaths in hospital (5, 2, 3 days postpartum), and seven patients were alive, and the average hospitalization days was (8 ± 4) days.One fetus lost with cesarean section. Two were term delivery, and seven cases were premature delivery. The average weight is (1 948 ± 731) g and nine were alive and no malformation.CONCLUSIONS:Because of maternal mortality in patients with severe IPAH remains prohibitively high, patients should continue to be counseled to avoid pregnancy.Women with severe IPAH who become pregnancy should be followed by multidisciplinary approach, and cesarean deliveries during continuous epidural anesthesia are a relatively safe way for pregnancy termination in patients with severe IPAH.
OBJECTIVE:Study of pulmonary hypertension (PAH) during pregnancy has characteristics of the high risk factors for patient death and its clinical characteristics.METHODS:Death in patients with clinical data was collected from January 2006 to October 2013 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University treated 8 cases of pregnancy complicated with PAH in hospital. According to the mechanism of PAH patients will be divided into two categories, Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) in 4 cases, 4 cases of secondary PAH [are secondary to congenital heart disease, also known as congenital heart disease associated PAH (CHD-PAH)]. Analyze the clinical features of 8 cases of patients and pregnancy outcome.RESULTS:(1) In 8 patients, 4 cases were IPAH, none of them with primary diseases, and they were complicated with severe tricuspid regurgitation. 4 cases were CHD-PAH, all with Eisenmenger's syndrome. 8 patients were not preconception counseling and regular prenatal examination. (2) The pregestational cardiac function of 8 cases was grade I-II, and it was grade III-IV on admission. The estimation pressure (sPAP) of pulmonary artery systolic by echocardiography was 101 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa). In 8 patients, 7 cases were in pregnancy 27 weeks and beyond for treatment since the clinical symptoms increased, 1 case of pregnant 18 weeks for treatment caused by the increased clinical symptoms. (3) In 8 patients, 1 patient with CHD- PAH secondary to patent ductus arteriosus, its sPAP was 170 mmHg, dead at 12 hours after admission; the remaining 7 cases termination with cesarean section. 4 patients with IPAH were continuous epidural anesthesia, including 1 case for the intraoperative PAH crisis and respiratory and cardiac arrest with general anesthesia, 3 cases of CHD- PAH patients in 1 case with continuous epidural anesthesia, 2 cases of general anesthesia.(4) In 8 patients, 7 cases of median death time were 3 days after delivery, including 4 cases of IPAH patients death for 2.5 days after delivery; the causes of death were PAH crisis and heart failure. Time of death in 4 cases of CHD-PAH, 1 case was dead at 12 hours after admissions, the remaining 3 cases median death time were 13 days after delivery; the death causes for 4 cases of CHD-PAH were PAH crisis and multiple organ failure. (5) In 8 patients, 1 patient with CHD-PAH secondary to patent ductus arteriosus in gestational week 31 stillbirths occur. 1 case of pregnant 19 weeks had treatment of caesarean operation, the remaining 6 cases respectively at 28-30 weeks of gestation live birth, neonatal survival. (6) Before delivery, 4 cases of IPAH and 3 cases of CHD-PAH patients treated with alprostadil, iloprost, sildenafil, reduction of pulmonary artery pressure treatment, 1 case of CHD-PAH patient was dead after 12 hours in hospital, no drug treatment.CONCLUSIONS:(1) PAH in patients need for consultation prior to conception, pregnancy must conduct regular prenatal examination, symptoms occur during pregnancy, the cardiac function was significantly decreased, and no improvement of drug treatment should be early terminated the pregnancy. (2) Compared with the pregnant women with CHD- PAH, faster progress and poor prognosis in patients with IPAH disease. (3)The patients during cesarean operation or intrapartumare easy to cause PAH crisis and heart failure or multiple organ failure. Taking active measures to maintain stability of hemodynamics is the key to prevent the occurrence of death of pregnant women with PAH.
