Background: Previous research suggests that maternal parenting stress is a significant predictor of socialemotional problems in children. However, little is known regarding the mother-child relationship and the effect of maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on this association. Methods: Three waves of longitudinal panel data were collected from 2893 Chinese preschoolers with a follow-up interval of 6 months. The mothers of preschoolers were asked to complete anonymous questionnaires concerning demographic variables, maternal ACEs and parenting stress in Wave 1, mother-child relationships in Wave 2, and children's social-emotional problems in Wave 3. The parallel mediation model was conducted to analyze the mediating role of three dimensions of mother-child relationships, and the moderation model was conducted to examine the moderating role of maternal ACEs. Results: The results showed that maternal parenting stress predicted children's social-emotional problems directly or indirectly through the mother-child relationship, with an intimate mother-child relationship mediating this main effect negatively but a conflicted and dependent mother-child relationship mediating this main effect positively. In addition, moderating results indicated that the main effect of maternal parenting stress on children's social-emotional problems was more marked among participants with at least one maternal ACEs than those without maternal ACEs. Furthermore, the moderating effect was only detected in children whose mothers had a high school education or less. Limitations: The subjectivity of mothers' reports may somewhat reduce the credibility due to the possible overestimation or underestimation of children's social-emotional problems. Conclusion: These findings provide new evidence for the effects of maternal parenting stress on children's socialemotional development and highlight the need for more attention to children with mothers having ACE exposure, lower educational level and poor parent-child relationships.
Background: Previous researches found that maternal ACEs not only affect the psychological behavior of preschool children, but also have direct or indirect negative effects on the executive functions (EFs) and cognition of offspring. And, the possible social psychological mechanism between maternal ACEs and preschool children's EFs is still not clear. Objectives:This study mainly tries to understand the association between parenting stress and child maltreatment in maternal ACEs and children's EFs through longitudinal cohorts. Participants and Setting: Participants were 2160 preschool children and their mothers who finally completed baseline and 3 waves of follow-up. Methods: Using a cohort study, a baseline survey of junior kindergartens was carried out in June 2021 and followed up every six months, with a total of 3 follow-ups. Results: We found that EFs in preschoolers were significantly positively correlated with maternal ACEs, parenting stress, physical assault, psychological aggression, neglect and nonviolent discipline (r = 0.180, 0.386, 0.274, 0.302, 0.189, 0.148, respectively, P<0.01). Further, parenting stress and child maltreatment showed a chain mediating effect between maternal ACEs and EFs in preschoolers, and the total indirect effects accounted for 70.56%, 78.69%, 65.38%, and 68.07% of the total effect, respectively. Conclusions: This study found that maternal ACEs have a significant impact on the EFs of preschool children, and parenting stress and child maltreatment are the mediating factors of their association, revealing the potential mechanism between the two associations from the perspective of social psychology.
Emerging evidence indicates the critical roles of circular RNAs in the development of multiple cancers, containing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Herein, our present research reported the biological function and mechanism of circ_0027791 in HCC progression. Circ_0027791, microRNA-496 (miR-496), programmed cell death ligand 1 (PDL1), and methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) levels were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Cell viability, proliferation, invasion, and sphere formation ability were detected using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine, transwell, and sphere formation assays. Macrophage polarization was detected using flow cytometry assay. To understand the role of circ_0027791 during the immune escape, HCC cells were cocultured with peripheral blood mononuclear cells or cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells in vitro. A xenograft mouse model was applied to assess the function of circ_0027791 in vivo. After prediction using circinteractome and miRDB, the binding between miR-496 and circ_0027791 or PDL1 was validated based on a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Interaction between METTL3 and circ_0027791 was determined using methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (MeRIP)-qPCR, RIP-qPCR, and RNA pull-down assays. Circ_0027791, PDL1, and METTL3 expression were upregulated, and miR-496 was decreased in HCC patients and cells. Moreover, circ_0027791 knockdown might repress proliferation, invasion, sphere formation, M2 macrophage polarization, and antitumor immune response. Circ_0027791 knockdown repressed HCC tumor growth in vivo. In mechanism, circ_0027791 functioned as a sponge for miR-496 to increase PDL1 expression. In addition, METTL3 mediated the m6A methylation of circ_0027791 and stabilized its expression. METTL3-induced circ_0027791 facilitated HCC cell progression partly regulating the miR-496/PDL1 axis, which provided a new prognostic and therapeutic marker for HCC.

Background: Depressive symptoms are the most common mental disorder among adolescents, and its prevalence has been increasing in recent years. Although childhood maltreatment is a contributing factor to depressive symptoms among adolescents, the underlying mechanism of how this factor causes depressive symptoms is unclear.Objective: This study aimed to investigate the mediating effects of parent-child relationship on the association between childhood maltreatment and depressive symptoms among adolescents and to identify how sex and only child status affect this association.Methods: A total of 14,500 middle school students were randomly selected from four cities (Shenzhen, Zhengzhou, Nanchang, and Guiyang) in China. A survey questionnaire was admin-istered to collect information on childhood maltreatment, parent-child relationship, and depressive symptoms. Pearson's correlation analysis was used in analyzing the relationship, Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effects. A moderated mediation analysis has been used to determine the moderated mediation effect.Results: Childhood maltreatment significantly negatively correlated with parent-child relationship and positively correlated with depressive symptoms (P < 0.001). The indirect effect of parent -child relationship accounted for 20.60% of the total effect between childhood maltreatment and depressive symptoms in all respondents and differed by sex (boys, 17.00%; girls, 25.23%) and only child status (only child, 15.61%; child with siblings, 23.49%). Besides, the indirect effect of the mediation model was moderated by sex and only child status.Conclusions: Childhood maltreatment increased the risk of depressive symptoms, and this rela-tionship was partially mediated by parent-child relationship, sex and only child status have moderated the indirect relationship. These findings showed efforts aimed at enhancing the parent-child relationship may prevent or reduce the prevalence of depressive symptoms among adolescents, especially in girls and children with siblings.

The lack of reliable plasma biomarkers limits their use in the diagnosis of gastric cancer (GC). The current study aimed to determine whether plasma nesfatin-1 can be used as a novel non-invasive biomarker for the diagnosis of GC. The levels of nesfatin-1 in 40 patients with GC and 40 healthy individuals, who were selected from the Chaohu Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University, were assessed. ELISA was used for the measurement of plasma nesfatin-1 levels, while immunohistochemistry was applied to determine Ki67 protein expression in GC and normal gastric tissues. The diagnostic value of plasma nesfatin-1 for GC was further assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The results revealed that, compared with the controls, the mean nesfatin‐1 levels in patients with GC were significantly increased. Furthermore, the protein expression of Ki67 in GC tissue was significantly upregulated compared with that in normal gastric tissue. Plasma nesfatin-1 levels were also demonstrated to be correlated with Ki67 protein expression in GC tissues. Additionally, ROC curve analysis indicated the potential diagnostic value of nesfatin-1, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for nesfatin‐1 was 0.857 (95% confidence interval, 0.769-0.946). At a threshold nesfatin-1 level of 1.075 ng/ml, the optimal sensitivity and specificity were 70.0 and 95.0%, respectively, in discriminating patients with GC from healthy controls. These results indicated that plasma nesfatin-1 may serve as a novel biomarker for the diagnosis of GC and determination of GC cell proliferation.

KISS 1 and KISS 1R, a novel pair of metastasis suppressors, are likely to be associated with the prognosis of colorectal cancer ( CRC ). Here, a meta‐analysis was performed to study the role of KISS 1 and KISS 1R in CRC . Heterogeneity, stability and publication bias were all estimated. Six publications describing a total of 559 CRC patients were included in the present study. Low KISS 1 expression predicted 70% higher risk of poor prognosis for general patients ( HR , 1.71; 95% CI , 1.28–2.29) and 99% higher risk for East Asian patients ( HR , 1.99; 95% CI , 1.46–2.72). Limited evidence indicated that decreased KISS 1R expression might predict poor outcome ( HR , 2.96; 95% CI , 1.51–5.82). Neither heterogeneity nor publication bias was identified. The current analyses suggest that low KISS 1 expression predicts poor overall survival among East Asian patients with CRC . Evidence on other races and KISS 1R are still insufficient, and additional studies are required to clarify the risk of CRC associated with KISS 1R by race.

Objective This study aimed to investigate whether the copy numbers of the CCL3L1 (Chemokine C-C-Motif Ligand 3 Like Protein 1) gene were associated with susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods A total of 806 Chinese individuals including 405 AS patients and 401 healthy controls were enrolled. The CCL3L1 gene copy number was measured by a custom-by-design Multiplex AccuCopyTM Kit based on a multiplex fluorescence competitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) principle, and 50 samples were randomly selected using the fluorescent quantitative PCR method to verify copy number. Main statistical method was t test, chi-square test and logistic regression model. Results There were no statistically significant differences between the case group and control group in age and gender ( t=1.77, P=0.076, χ2=1.14, P=0.289). The copy number of CCL3L1 gene ranged from 0 to 13 in both AS patients and the controls. After copy numbers were classified into 3 categories by 3, we did not find significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.591, P=0.669). And regression analyses also did not support the hypothesis that CCL3L1 gene copy number variation (CNV) could be an impact factor to the severity or function indexes of AS patients ( χ2=0.341, P=0.804 and χ2=0.472, P=0.774, respectively). Conclusion We suggest that the copy number of the CCL3L1 gene does not have a role in the susceptibility and the severity or function to AS.
