一个以前列腺特异抗原密度和穿刺评分为基础的中国人群中前列腺癌根治术后病理升级预测模型的建立

目的：分析前列腺癌根治术后病理得分较穿刺得分增加的原因，并建立一个可以预测中国人群中前列腺癌根治术后病理升 级的模型。方法：以2008 年8 月至2013 年12 月在我院泌尿科行前列腺癌根治性切除术的264例患者的临床资料为基础，根据 术前和术后患者病理得分的变化将其分为升级组和未升级组。运用单因素和多因素logistic 回归分析病理升级的原因，并通过多 因素回归系数建立预测病理升级的诺模图。结果：264 例患者中，共238 例最终纳入统计分析，多因素logistic 回归分析显示前列 腺特异抗原密度(0R=3.854，P=0.001 )和穿刺Gleason(≤ 6)评分是中国人群中前列腺癌根治术后病理升级的独立危险因素。前列腺 特异抗原密度和穿刺得分的ROC 最佳截断取值为0.37 ng/ml 2和8 分。运用上述两个变量建立了一个可用于预测病理升级的诺 模图。结论：前列腺特异抗原密度和穿刺Gleason 评分是预测中国人群中前列腺癌根治术后病理升级的独立危险因素，本研究所 得的诺模图可以很好地预测前列腺癌根治术后的病理升级。     

Ultrasound mediated efficient synthesis of new 4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)furan-2-carboxamides as potent tyrosinase inhibitors: Mechanistic approach through chemoinformatics and molecular docking studies

We have carried out the synthesis of new 4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)furan-2-carboxamide derivatives by the reaction between isatoic anhydride, 2-furoic hydrazide and substituted salicylaldehydes in ethanol: water (5:5 v/v) solvent system using p-TSA as a catalyst under ultrasound irradiation at room temperature. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed through spectral techniques such as IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and LCMS. The important features of this protocol include simple and easy workup procedure, reaction carried out at ambient temperature, use of ultrasound and high yield of oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)furan-2-carboxamides in short reaction time. The synthesized compounds 4a–4j were screened against tyrosinase enzyme and all these compounds found to be potent inhibitors with much lower IC₅₀ value of 0.028 ± 0.016 to 1.775 ± 0.947 µM than the standard kojic acid (16.832 ± 1.162 µM). The kinetics mechanism for compound 4e was analyzed by Lineweaver-Burk plots which revealed that compound inhibited tyrosinase non-competitively by forming an enzyme-inhibitor complex. Along with this all the synthesized compounds (4a–4j) were scanned for their DPPH free radical scavenging ability. The outputs received through in vitro and in silico analysis are coherent to the each other with good binding energy values (kcal/mol) posed by synthesized ligands.

目的:探讨不同海拔高度的高原低压缺氧环境下大鼠肠道病理损伤的特点。方法:将30只SD雄性大鼠随机分5组:平原对照组、5000米海拔高度10天组、5000米海拔高度21天组、6500米海拔高度10天组、6500米海拔高度21天组,每组6只。大鼠在平原环境或模拟高原环境中常规饲养,在相应时间点,深度麻醉受试大鼠致死,取材,固定、HE染色后镜检并进行病理学损伤评分。结果:各高原组空、回肠病理损伤评分均显著高于平原对照组(P0.01),5000 m暴露21d组空肠、回肠、结肠病理损伤评分显著高于5000 m暴露10 d组,明显低于6500 m暴露21d组,6500 m暴露10d组空肠、回肠、结肠病理损伤评分显著高于5000 m暴露10 d组(P0.01或P0.05)。5000 m暴露10 d组结肠损伤病理评分与平原对照组比较差异无统计学意义外,其余高原组结肠病理损伤评分均显著高于平原对照组(P0.01或P0.05)。5000 m暴露21 d组空肠与结肠病理损伤评分存在显著性差异(P0.05);6500 m暴露21 d组空肠和回结肠均与结肠病理损伤评分存在显著性差异(P0.05,P0.01)。结论:肠道粘膜随着海拔高度和缺氧时间的延长而损伤加重。在相同的情况下,小肠的损伤较结肠严重,但空肠和回肠的损伤无明显差异,结肠损伤的发生较晚且与高原环境停留时间具有明显关系,提示在进入高原早期应将小肠病理损伤的防治作为重点。

A Comparison of Bone Mineral Density and Its Predictors in HIV-Infected and HIV-Uninfected Older Men

ObjectiveBone health in older individuals with HIV infection has not been well studied. This study aimed to compare bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone score (TBS), and bone markers between HIV-infected men and age- and body mass index (BMI)-matched HIV-uninfected men aged ≥60 years. We investigated the associations of risk factors related to fracture with BMD, TBS, and bone markers in HIV-infected men.MethodsThis cross-sectional study included 45 HIV-infected men receiving antiretroviral therapy and 42 HIV-uninfected men. Medical history, BMD and TBS measurements, and laboratory tests related to bone health were assessed in all the participants. HIV-related factors known to be associated with bone loss were assessed in the HIV-infected men.ResultsThe mean BMD, TBS, and osteopenia or osteoporosis prevalence were similar among the cases and controls. The HIV-infected men had significantly higher mean N-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen and C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen levels. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that low BMI (lumbar spine, P = .015; femoral neck, P = .018; and total hip, P = .005), high C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen concentration (total hip, P = .042; and TBS, P = .010), and low vitamin D supplementation (TBS, P = .035) were independently associated with low BMD and TBS.ConclusionIn older HIV-infected men with a low fracture risk, the mean BMD and TBS were similar to those of the age- and BMI-matched controls. The mean bone marker levels were higher in the HIV group. Traditional risk factors for fracture, including low BMI, high C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen level, and low vitamin D supplementation, were significant predictors of low BMD and TBS.     

Rethinking protein aggregation and drug discovery in neurodegenerative diseases: Why we need to embrace complexity?

More than a century has passed since pathological protein aggregates were first identified in the brains of patients with neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). Yet, we still do not have effective therapies to treat or slow the progression of these devastating diseases or diagnostics for early detection and monitoring disease progression. Herein, I reflect on recent findings that are challenging traditional views about the composition, ultrastructural properties, and diversity of protein pathologies in the brain, their mechanisms of formation and how we investigate and model pathological aggregation processes in the laboratory today. This article is an invitation to embrace the complexity of proteinopathies as an essential step to understanding the molecular mechanisms underpinning NDDs and to advance translational research and drug discovery in NDDs.
