BACKGROUND:This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TACE combined with durvalumab for treating advanced and metastatic BTC. Research design and methods: Data were collected retrospectively from a single center. The TACE procedures were performed 1 to 19 times, with repetitions occurring every 4 to 12 weeks based on the patient's liver function and tumor shrinkage. Durvalumab was given as an intravenous injection every three weeks at a dose of 1000 to 1500 mg. RESULTS:The estimated median progression-free survival (PFS) was 9.0 months (95% CI: 6.8 to 11.2), with a 1-year PFS rate of 23.8%. The estimated median overall survival (OS) was 16.0 months (95% CI: 7.5 to 24.5), with a 1-year OS rate of 58.7%. The investigator-confirmed objective response rate (ORR) was 35.9%. Elevated baseline carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ≥ 3 showed negative correlations with PFS (p = 0.035, CEA; p = 0.038, NLR) and OS (p = 0.040, NLR). Adverse events occurred in 36 patients (92.3%). Additionally, 7 patients (17.9%) experienced immune-mediated AEs (imAEs). CONCLUSIONS:These results indicate promising efficacy and acceptable safety for the combination of TACE and durvalumab as a first-line treatment for advanced and metastatic BTC.
Background:There is relatively scant evidence concerning the effects of Lenvatinib and Pembrolizumab together with TACE for advanced HCC Lenvatinib and pembrolizumab have been widely applied in clinical settings. PIVKA-II serving as the sensitive biomarker for evaluating liver cancer was employed by us to further assess the therapeutic effectiveness of TACE combined with Lenvatinib in the treatment of BCLC C. Methods:In this retrospective study, 260 patients with HCC BCLC C stage were included in the present study. TACE (TL group) included 126 patients, TACE-Lenvatinib-Pembrolizumab (TPB group) consisted of 134 patients. OS and PFS were compared between the two groups. Alternatively, the impact of PIVKA-II in TPB on the PFS of BCLC C stage was also assessed. Results:The median overall survival (OS) in the TL group was significantly prolonged compared to that in the TPB group (13.7 months versus 9.6 months). Conversely, the median progression - free survival (PFS) was extended in the TPB group as opposed to the TL group (9.3 months versus 6.2 months). The adverse events in the TPB group were controllable and tolerable. After six months of combined treatment, the change in PIVKA - II became less significant. This suggests that PIVKA-II is negatively correlated with PFS, meaning that the greater the decrease in PIVKA-II after 6 months of combined therapy, the longer the PFS time for the patient. Conclusion:TACE combined with Lenvatinib and Pembrolizumab exhibited remarkable survival benefits for HCC BCLC C patients. Given the extremely dismal prognosis of advanced HCC, the safety and efficacy of TACE in combination with Lenvatinib and Pembrolizumab justify its clinical application.
Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents 85% of all lung cancer (LC) cases that are malignant tumors, while lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the commonest type of NSCLC. Family with sequence similarity 107 member A (FAM107A) is a suppressor gene in many cancers, but its mechanism in LUAD has been less studied. The objective of the experiment is to explore the role and potential mechanism of FAM107A in the progression of LUAD. Methods: Expression levels of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and FAM107A in LUAD tissues/cells were determined using StarBase and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. In the first part, FAM107A specific short hairpin RNA (shFAM107A) was transfected into H1299 cells and FAM107A overexpression plasmid was transfected into PC9 cells. In the second part, shHDAC2 and shFAM107A were co-transfected into H1299 cells, and HDAC2 and FAM107A overexpression plasmids were co-transfected into PC9 cells. Then, chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were employed to determine HDAC2 enrichment in FAM107A promoter region. Loss- and gain-of-function experiments (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), colony formation assay, and flow cytometry) were conducted to verify the regulation of FAM107A on malignant phenotype of LUAD cells. The influence of HDAC2/FAM107A axis on LUAD cell biological behaviors was verified through rescue experiments. Results: FAM107A mRNA exhibited a low expression in LUAD tissues/cells (p < 0.001). Its overexpression suppressed the viability, proliferation, and B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) level in LUAD cells, and promoted the apoptosis as well as Bcl-2-Associated X (Bax) and Cleaved Caspase-3 protein levels (p < 0.01), while its silencing produced the opposite results. HDAC2 mRNA expression was highly expressed in LUAD tissues (p < 0.001). Its overexpression negated the aforementioned effects of FAM107A overexpression (p < 0.01), while its inhibition neutralized the effects of FAM107A silencing (p < 0.01). HDAC2 protein expression was enriched in FAM107A promoter region (p < 0.001), and FAM107A protein expression was inhibited by HDAC2 through its histone deacetylation. Conclusions: Repression of FAM107A induced by HDAC2 promotes colony formation, while inhibiting the apoptosis of LUAD cells.
Purpose For patients with advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), safe and effective therapies are urgently needed to improve their long-term prognosis. Although the guidelines recommend first-line treatments such as sorafenib, lenvatinib, and atezolizumab in combination with bevacizumab (T+A) and second-line treatments such as regorafenib, the efficacy comparison between drugs is lacking, that is, a treatment is not recommended as the optimal or alternative choice for a specific patient population. Therefore, we will conduct a high-quality network meta-analysis based on Phase III randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to systematically evaluate and compare overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and serious adverse events (SAE) of different treatment protocols in the context of first-line and second-line therapies, which are critical for clinical decision making and prognostic improvement in advanced HCC patients. Methods The studies of interest were Phase III RCTs evaluating the efficacy or safety of first- or second-line therapies in patients with unresectable or advanced HCC. Literature published in English from the four databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science was comprehensively searched from the inception to May 23, 2022. Outcomes of interest included OS, PFS, ORR, and SAE. A league table was developed to show the results of the comparison between different treatments. A histogram of cumulative probability was drawn to discuss the ranking probability of treatments based on different outcomes. The effectiveness and safety of various treatments were comprehensively considered and the two-dimensional diagram was plotted to guide clinical practice. The Gemtc package in R Studio was used for network meta-analysis in a Bayesian framework. Results The results showed that HAIC-FO was superior to T+A regimen, regardless of OS, PFS or ORR. TACE combined with lenvatinib performed better than T+A in PFS, and ORR. In addition to the T+A regimen, Sintilimab combined with IBI305 and camrelizumab combined with apatinib were also associated with longer OS, PFS, and ORR, and their SAE incidence was not higher than that of T+A, especially for camrelizumab combined with apatinib, its safety was better than that of T+A regimen. There were no new treatments or combinations that were more effective than regorafenib. It was important to note that for PFS, the efficacy of apatinib and cabozantinib was not statistically different from that of regorafenib, so these two treatments could be used as alternative treatment options in cases where regorafenib was not tolerated or treatment failed. Conclusions We conducted a network meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple treatment modalities by integrating the results of direct and indirect comparisons. This study included high-quality multicenter Phase III RCTs, collated and summarized all treatments involved in advanced or unresectable HCC in first-line and second-line settings, and compared with T+A and regorafenib, respectively, and ranked based on efficacy and safety to support clinical decision making.
PURPOSE:Acute rejection is a frequent complication among lung transplant recipients and poses substantial therapeutic challenges. 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), an enzyme responsible for the inactivation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), has recently been implicated in inflammatory lung diseases. However, the role of 15-PGDH in lung transplantation rejection remains elusive. The present study was undertaken to examine the expression of 15-PGDH in rejected lung allografts and whether inhibition of 15-PGDH ameliorates acute lung allograft rejection.METHODS:Orthotopic mouse lung transplantations were performed between donor and recipient mice of the same strain or allogeneic mismatched pairs. The expression of 15-PGDH in mouse lung grafts was measured. The efficacy of a selective 15-PGDH inhibitor (SW033291) in ameliorating acute rejection was assessed through histopathological examination, micro-CT imaging, and pulmonary function tests. Additionally, the mechanism underlying the effects of SW033291 treatment was explored using CD8+ T cells isolated from mouse lung allografts.RESULTS:Increased 15-PGDH expression was observed in rejected allografts and allogeneic CD8+ T cells. Treatment with SW033291 led to an accumulation of PGE2, modulation of CD8+ T-cell responses and mitochondrial activity, and improved allograft function and survival.CONCLUSION:Our study provides new insights into the role of 15-PGDH in acute lung rejection and highlights the therapeutic potential of inhibiting 15-PGDH for enhancing graft survival. The accumulation of PGE2 and modulation of CD8+ T-cell responses represent potential mechanisms underlying the benefits of 15-PGDH inhibition in this model. Our findings provide impetus for further exploring 15-PGDH as a target for improving lung transplantation outcomes.
Lung fibrosis is a devastating outcome of various diffuse parenchymal lung diseases. Despite rigorous research efforts, the mechanisms that propagate its progressive and nonresolving nature remain enigmatic. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of lung fibrosis. However, the role of extracellular redox state in disease progression and resolution remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that compartmentalized control over extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) by aerosolized delivery of recombinant extracellular superoxide dismutase (ECSOD) suppresses an established bleomycin-induced fibrotic process in mice. Further analysis of publicly available microarray, RNA-seq and single-cell RNAseq datasets reveals a significant decrease in ECSOD expression in fibrotic lung tissues that can be spontaneously restored during fibrosis resolution. Therefore, we investigate the effect of siRNA-mediated ECSOD depletion during the established fibrotic phase on the self-limiting nature of the bleomycin mouse model. Our results demonstrate that in vivo knockdown of ECSOD in mouse fibrotic lungs impairs fibrosis resolution. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 downregulates endogenous ECSOD expression, leading to the accumulation of extracellular superoxide via Smad-mediated signaling and the activation of additional stores of latent TGF-β1. In addition, depletion of endogenous ECSOD during the fibrotic phase in the bleomycin model induces an apoptosis-resistant phenotype in lung fibroblasts through unrestricted Akt signaling. Taken together, our data strongly support the critical role of extracellular redox state in fibrosis persistence and resolution. Based on these findings, we propose that compartment-specific control over extracellular ROS may be a potential therapeutic strategy for managing fibrotic lung disorders.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is widespread cancer with a high degree of morbidity and mortality in individuals worldwide and a serious concern for its resistance to present chemotherapy drugs. In this investigation, the combination of cisplatin (CPT) and metformin (MET) to kill the HepG2 and caco-2 cells was developed into a new pH-responding magnetic nanocomposite based on reduced graphene oxide. Polyhydroxyethyl methacrylic (PHEA) was then linked employing grafting from approach to the reduced graphene oxide by ATRP polymerization (Fe3O4@rGO-G-PSEA). FT-IR, SEM, XRD, DLS, and TGA analyses evaluated physicochemical characteristics of the nanocomposite. In addition, the cellular uptake property of the nanocomposites was examined by the HepG2 cells. The outcomes of cell viability results indicate that the nanoparticles loaded with MET&CPT showed the lowest concentration rate of HepG2 and Caco-2 cells compared to the drug-loaded single nanocomposite groups and free drugs. The histological analysis has demonstrated relatively safe and does not produce different stress such as swelling and inflammation of the mice organs. Our results show the enhancement in cytotoxicity in HepG2 and Cocoa-2 cells by MET and CPT graphene oxide-based nanocomposite by promoting apoptotic response. Moreover, Fe3O4@rGO-G-PSEA showed potent in vivo antitumor efficacy but showed no adverse toxicity to normal tissues. Together, this study can provide insight into how surface embellishment may tune these nanocomposites' tumor specificity and provide the basis for developing anticancer efficacy.
Exposure to airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is associated with a variety of respiratory health effects and contributes to premature mortality. Lymphatic vessels are instrumental in facilitating the transport of toxic materials away from the lung to maintain alveolar clearance and have been shown to play important roles in lung injury and repair. Despite intense research efforts in delineating the effects of PM2.5 on blood vascular endothelial cells, the impacts of PM2.5 on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), a specialized subset of endothelial cells that comprise lymphatic vessels, remain enigmatic. Here, we conducted MTT assay and show that treatment of human pulmonary LECs with PM2.5 suppresses cell viability in a time- and dose-dependent manner. We subsequently performed Annexin V/propidium iodide labeling and demonstrate that PM2.5 induces LECs apoptosis and necrosis. Furthermore, we found that manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) expression and mitochondrial SOD activity were profoundly reduced following PM2.5 exposure. Mechanistically, we provide compelling evidence that PM2.5 reduces SOD2 expression through activation of Akt pathway, which leads to a disruption of mitochondrial redox homeostasis characterized by increased accumulation of mitochondrial superoxide. Conversely, mitochondria-targeted SOD mimetic (MitoTEMPO) corrects the disturbed oxidative milieu in PM2.5-treated LECs. Additionally, MitoTEMPO ameliorates the deleterious impacts of PM2.5 on mitochondrial DNA integrity and preserves the viability of LECs. Taken together, these novel data support a critical role for mitochondrial superoxide in the pathogenesis of PM2.5-induced LECs injury and identity mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants as promising therapeutic options to treat environmental lung diseases. Our findings are limited to experimental studies with primary LECs, and future investigations in animal models are warranted to shed light on the precise pathophysiology of lymphatic system in response to PM exposure.

As a novel vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (VEGFR2-TKI), apatinib has a certain anti-tumor effect for a variety of solid tumors. The present study evaluates its efficacy and safety in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, 47 patients with advanced HCC were included. TACE monotherapy group included 22 patients that responded to TACE, while the group that received TACE and apatinib included 25 patients that progressed on TACE and were able to receive apatinib off label. Median overall survival (OS) was significantly improved in the apatinib plus TACE group compared with the TACE group. Similarly, apatinib in combination with TACE significantly prolonged median progression-free survival (PFS) compared with TACE monotherapy. Furthermore, there was a significant difference between combination therapy and monotherapy in both Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) B and BCLC C group. The combination therapy had a dramatic effect on OS and PFS for patients at both BCLC B and BCLC C level. The most common clinically adverse events of apatinib plus TACE group were fatigue, weight loss, hypertension, hand-foot syndrome and anorexia, which were manageable and tolerable. The efficacy analysis showed that there was no significant association of survival benefit with age, gender, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, hypertension and hand-foot syndrome. Patients with macrovascular invasion and extrahepatic invasion showed worse survival benefits. In conclusion, apatinib combined with TACE revealed certain survival benefits for HCC patients who experienced progression following TACE, which can provide a promising strategy for HCC treatment.
Bone metastases are the most common sites for malignant tumors. Patients who failed to respond to initial first-line treatment with bisphosphonates usually suffer from extreme pain. The aim of this study was to observe the efficacy of arterial chemoembolization combined with Iodine-125 seed implantation in the treatment of bone metastatic cancer pain. All 14 patients with metastatic bone tumor wo failed first-line treatment underwent arterial chemoembolization the day before the implantation of the particles. A computer stereoscopic TPS was used to design the treatment plans, the number and dose of particles required for implantation. Pain relief was evaluated using several parameters such as Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Verbal Rating Scales (VRS). Pain intensity was measured pre-operation and 1-week, 1-month, 3-month after the treatment. Meanwhile, we also assessed tumor size using computer tomography (CT). Pain palliation was observed in 35.7% (5/14), 57.1% (8/14), and 78.6% (11/14) of all patients at 1-week, 1-month and 3-month post treatment. Likewise, our analysis showed that the combination therapy resulted in a significant decrease of VAS score (6.71 ± 0.49 before treatment vs 3.36 ± 0.40 at 3 month post treatment) and overall responding rate of 92.0% using VRS pain assessment. Consistently, tumor size was reduced from 42.16 ± 10.32 before treatment to 29.11 ± 8.73 at 3 months post treatment. No serious complications were detected. Our study demonstrate that the combination of arterial chemoembolization and 125I particles resulted in evident pain relief and reduction of tumor burden, suggesting that the combination treatment could be a feasible and promising therapy for bone tumor management.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with apatinib on pa-tients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods:Twenty-one patients were treated with TACE combined with 250 mg of apatinib once a day. Disease classification was assessed by investigators using the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tu-mors (mRECIST). The evaluation period was 28 days. Results:The therapeutic effects were classified as follows:3 patients (14.3%) had complete response, 6 patients (28.6%) had partial response, 5 patients (23.8%) had stable disease, and 2 patients (9.5%) had progres-sive disease. The disease control rate was 61.9%, and the objective response rate was 38.1%. In patients, the most frequent adverse events were fatigue (94.4%), anorexia (23.8%), diarrhea (19.0%), hypertension (19.0%), and hand-foot syndrome (19.0%). Conclusion:The short-term therapeutic effect revealed that the combination of TACE and apatinib could be a promising treatment for patients with advanced HCC. Adverse events should be closely monitored and provided with active management.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationships between upstream venous sinus stenosis and pulsatile tinnitus (PT), and to assess the correlation with diverticulum growth and the effectiveness of stent implantation. METHODS: Patient-specific geometric models were constructed using computed tomography venography images from a patient with PT, with sigmoid sinus diverticulum, and with upstream transverse sinus stenosis, in whom stenting of the upstream sinus stenosis alone achieved complete remission of PT. Computational fluid dynamics simulation based on this patient-specific geometry was performed using commercially available finite element software (ANSYS-14) to qualitatively and quantitatively compare the flow velocity, flow rate, velocity vector, pressure, vorticity, and wall shear stress on the affected side transverse and sigmoid sinuses, before and after stent implantation. RESULTS: Stenting improved the flow direction and magnitude. After stenting, the flow pattern became smoother and more regular. High-speed blood flow at the level of the diverticulum neck was confined to a smaller area, and its direction changed from approximately perpendicular to the diverticular dome to the distal side of the diverticular neck. The diverticulum showed obvious flow reduction, with decreases of 80.7%, 68.7%, 96.1%, and 91.3% in peak velocity, inflow rate, pressure gradient, and peak vorticity, respectively. The abnormally low wall shear stress at the dome of diverticulum was eliminated. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings strongly support a major role of diverticulum stenosis before in PT development and suggest that such stenosis is a causative factor of diverticulum growth. They also confirm the effectiveness of stent implantation for the treatment of PT.
