BackgroundAberrant tissue repair and relentless fibroblast activation are hallmark features of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Although IPF and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) share underlying aging-related pathologies, including immune and metabolic dysregulation, the putative genetic mechanisms linking AD susceptibility to pathogenic macrophage remodeling in the fibrotic niche are not fully established.MethodsWe performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to assess the genetic association and potential causal relationship between AD and IPF. Shared hub genes were identified via protein interaction networks. To characterize macrophage heterogeneity and intercellular crosstalk within the IPF microenvironment, we interrogated scRNA-seq data (GSE122960) utilizing Monocle 3 and CellChat algorithms. The functional essentiality of APOE was evaluated bridging computational virtual knockout (scTenifoldKnk) with laboratory in vitro assays. Specifically, downstream transcriptomic shifts and fibroblast activation capacities were validated using APOE-silenced THP-1 macrophages and a Transwell co-culture model with MRC-5 cells.ResultsMR estimates indicated that genetic liability to AD is associated with a lower risk of developing IPF. Integrated profiling identified the lipid-metabolism gene APOE as a central hub, specifically enriched in lung macrophages. Pseudotime modeling captured a pathogenic bifurcation in IPF, where macrophages evolve toward a terminal state marked by profound oxidative phosphorylation defects and massive SPP1 secretion. These SPP1+ macrophages primarily activate fibroblasts via CD44 and integrin signaling axes. Furthermore, both virtual simulations and in vitro THP-1 experiments demonstrated that loss of APOE function triggers the hyperactivation of complement (C1QA) and antigen-presentation (HLA-DR) pathways. Co-culture assays ultimately confirmed that APOE ablation in macrophages strongly exacerbates myofibroblast differentiation (elevated α-SMA and collagen I) in adjacent MRC-5 cells.ConclusionAPOE functions as a vital metabolic barrier against pro-fibrotic macrophage polarization in the lung. Disruption of this specific lipid metabolic network is strongly associated with SPP1-driven fibroblast activation and local immune imbalance, providing a theoretical framework that strictly warrants future in vivo investigation to determine its clinical relevance.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an age-related interstitial lung disease of unknown cause. Oxidative stress, an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, is implicated in IPF pathogenesis and prognosis but needs further study. We used transcriptome sequencing data (GSE70866) and oxidative stress-related genes from GeneCards. A prognostic risk model for IPF patients was constructed using LASSO. Functional and pathway differences were analyzed between risk score groups, along with comparisons of immune cells and functions. An IPF rat model with vitamin D3 (VD3) intervention was also established. Finally, we used IL-4 to induce M2 macrophages to explore the mechanism of action of CCL2. We identified 483 DEGs and 50 oxidative stress-related DEGs (OSDEGs). Single-factor COX regression identified 34 prognostic OSDEGs, and LASSO identified an 8-gene signature for the risk model. The high-risk group had more CD8 + T cells, macrophages, APC costimulation, and cytokine-cytokine receptor activity. CCL2 was significantly correlated with macrophages in IPF. VD3 inhibited the TGF-β signaling pathway and reduced macrophage M2 infiltration in the rat model. In the IL-4 induced M2 macrophage model, we found that M2 macrophages produced more CCL2, and the production of CCL2 was significantly reduced after VD3 intervention. We established prognostic markers of eight oxidative stress-related genes. The risk score effectively predicts adverse outcomes in IPF. VD3 may alleviate IPF by reducing macrophage infiltration and inhibiting the TGF-β signaling pathway.
Polyethylene terephthalate microplastics (PET-MPs) are persistent in the environment and have become an emerging health concern. PET-MPs play a role in lung pathologies; however, little is known about their role in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Our research aimed to determine the role of PET-MPs in exacerbating IPF by combining improved detection and toxicology. The ProTox 3.0 platform was used to predict the microplastic toxicity of polyethylene terephthalate. The toxicological mechanism of PET-MP-induced IPF was explored using network toxicology, molecular docking, Mendelian randomization, and single-cell sequencing analysis. By analyzing the PubChem, ChEMBL, and SwissTargetPrediction databases, 120 potential targets related to PET-MPs exposure were identified, and 81 intersecting targets were obtained by intersecting the IPF gene in the Gene Expression Omnibus database. These were further optimized into three core targets, namely AKT1, PIM1, and PIK3CD. PET-MPs affected metabolic, lipid, atherosclerosis, and C-type selection receptor signaling pathways. The binding affinity of PET-MPs to these core targets was potent, and PET-MPs had a good binding effect with these target proteins. PET-MPs exhibit lung toxicity, which may be related to three key proteins: AKT1, PIK3CD, and PIM1. PET-MPs may exacerbate IPF via metabolic pathways, lipids, and atherosclerosis, which may occur in AT2 and CD8+T cells. This study offers valuable information on the molecular mechanism of IPF triggered by PET-MPs, emphasizing the practicality of network toxicology in the toxicity evaluation of emerging environmental contaminants.
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by excessive lipid peroxidation, is implicated in the development and therapeutic responses of cancer. However, the role of ferroptosis-related gene profiles in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) remains largely unknown. The present study aimed to identify the prognostic roles of ferroptosis-related genes in LSCC. Sequencing data from the Cancer Genome Atlas were analyzed and ferroptosis-related gene expression between tumor and para-tumor tissue was identified. The prognostic role of these genes was also assessed using Kaplan-Meier analyses and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model analyses. Immunological correlation, tumor stemness, drug sensitivity and the transcriptional differences of heat shock protein (HSP)A5 in LSCC were also analyzed. Thereafter, the expression of HSPA5 in 100 patients with metastatic LSCC was evaluated using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and the clinical significance of these markers with different risk factors was assessed. Of the 22 ferroptosis-related genes, the expression of HSPA5, HSPB1, glutathione peroxidase 4, Fanconi anemia complementation group D2, CDGSH iron sulfur domain 1, farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1, nuclear factor erythroid 2 like 2, solute carrier (SLC)1A5, ribosomal protein L8, nuclear receptor coactivator 4, transferrin receptor and SLC7A11 was significantly increased in LSCC compared with adjacent tissues. However, only high expression of HSPA5 was able to predict progression-free survival (PFS) and disease-free survival in LSCC. Although HSPA5 was also significantly elevated in patients with lung adenocarcinoma, HSPA5 expression did not predict the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Of note, a higher expression of HSPA5 was related to higher responses to chemotherapy but not to immunotherapy. In addition, HSPA5 expression was positively correlated with 'ferroptosis', 'cellular responses to hypoxia', 'tumor proliferation signature', 'G2M checkpoint', 'MYC targets' and 'TGFB'. IHC analysis also demonstrated that a high expression of HSPA5 in patients with metastatic LSCC in the study cohort was associated with shorter PFS and overall survival. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that the expression of the ferroptosis-related gene HSPA5 may be a negative prognostic marker for LSCC.

Certain high-risk factors related to the death of COVID-19 have been reported, however, there were few studies on a death prediction model. This study was conducted to delineate the clinical characteristics of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) of different degree and establish a death prediction model. In this multi-centered, retrospective, observational study, we enrolled 523 COVID-19 cases discharged before February 20, 2020 in Henan Province, China, compared clinical data, screened for high-risk fatal factors, built a death prediction model and validated the model in 429 mild cases, six fatal cases discharged after February 16, 2020 from Henan and 14 cases from Wuhan. Out of the 523 cases, 429 were mild, 78 severe survivors, 16 non-survivors. The non-survivors with median age 71 were older and had more comorbidities than the mild and severe survivors. Non-survivors had a relatively delay in hospitalization, with higher white blood cell count, neutrophil percentage, D-dimer, LDH, BNP, and PCT levels and lower proportion of eosinophils, lymphocytes and albumin. Discriminative models were constructed by using random forest with 16 non-survivors and 78 severe survivors. Age was the leading risk factors for poor prognosis, with AUC of 0.907 (95% CI 0.831-0.983). Mixed model constructed with combination of age, demographics, symptoms, and laboratory findings at admission had better performance (p= 0.021) with a generalized AUC of 0.9852 (95% CI 0.961-1). We chose 0.441 as death prediction threshold (with 0.85 sensitivity and 0.987 specificity) and validated the model in 429 mild cases, six fatal cases discharged after February 16, 2020 from Henan and 14 cases from Wuhan successfully. Mixed model can accurately predict clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients.

The patients were followed up by general practitioners and respiratory specialists once every three months and understood the situation of patients, discussed the parameters of ventilator, guided the application of ventilator, and monitored the pulmonary function indexes dynamically such as forced expiratory volume per second (FEV1% pred), blood gas analysis indexes such as blood gas analysis indicators (pH value, pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), arterial oxygen sub-pressure (PaO 2), arterial blood carbon dioxide sub-pressure (PaCO 2), modified British Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scales, and the number of acute exacerbations within 1 year. Results:After 1 year of treatment, SpO 2, PaO 2 and mMRC scales were improved compared with the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05), and the number of acute seizures decreased compared with the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in FEV1% pred, PaCO 2 and pH value( P>0.05). Conclusions:The combination of general practitioners and specialists in the management of noninvasive ventilation at home can significantly improve the arterial oxygen partial pressure of COPD patients, improve the degree of dyspnea and reduce the number of acute cases.

Objective To investigate the changes of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α, HIF-2α) expression level in lung cancer A-549 cells under normoxic conditions, different hypoxia durations, and different oxygen concentrations. Methods A549 cells were divided into normoxic group, time control group, and oxygen concentration control group. Western blot was used to detect the expression of HIF-1α and HIF-2α in A-549 cells.Results The expression of HIF-1α and HIF-2α protein were lower under normoxia and significantly increased under hypoxic conditions. The difference was statistically significant. The lower the oxygen concentration, the more HIF-1α and HIF-2α protein expression levels were. The differences between high and high were statistically significant. The expression of HIF-1α protein increased at 2 h after hypoxia, peaked at 8 h, appeared plateau at 8 to 16 h, and decreased at 32 h, with a statistically significant difference. HIF-2α proteins gradually increased with prolonged hypoxia. Conclusions Under hypoxic conditions, the expression of HIF-1α and HIF-2α are increased, and the expression of HIF-2α has a time-dependent pattern, which may have more important biological significance.
目的:探讨黄芪注射液联合丹参注射液治疗慢性阻塞性肺疾病的临床效果及对患者氧化应激水平的影响.方法:采用随机数字表法将137例慢性阻塞性肺疾病急性加重期(A EC O-PD)患者分为对照组68例和观察组69例.对照组给予常规治疗,观察组在对照组的基础上给予黄芪注射液联合丹参注射液治疗.观察两组治疗前后第1秒用力呼气量(FEV1)、用力肺活量(FVC)、FEV1占FVC的百分比(FEV1/FVC%)、血清超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、丙二醛(MDA)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)和总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)水平,统计两组临床疗效.结果:观察组有效率显著高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).两组治疗后FEVE1、FEV1/FVC水平与治疗前相比较均显著升高(P<0.05),且观察组与同期对照组相比较均显著升高(P<0.05).两组治疗后SOD、GSH-Px、T-AOC水平与治疗前相比较均显著升高(P<0.05),且观察组与同期对照组相比较均显著升高(P<0.05);两组治疗后MDA水平与治疗前相比较均显著降低(P<0.05),且观察组与同期对照组相比较显著降低(P<0.05).结论:黄芪注射液联合丹参注射液治疗AECO-PD可改善患者肺功能,提高治疗效果,清除氧自由基和提高抗氧化能力可能是其重要作用机制.
