Socio-Environmental Circumstances Linked to Geospatial Clusters of Urothelial Carcinoma: A new Multi-Institutional Evaluation.
The recent advent of third-generation sequencing technologies brings promise for better characterization of genomic structural variants by virtue of having longer reads. However, long-read applications are still constrained by their high sequencing error rates and low sequencing throughput. Here, we present NanoVar, an optimized structural variant caller utilizing low-depth (8X) whole-genome sequencing data generated by Oxford Nanopore Technologies. NanoVar exhibits higher structural variant calling accuracy when benchmarked against current tools using low-depth simulated datasets. In patient samples, we successfully validate structural variants characterized by NanoVar and uncover normal alternative sequences or alleles which are present in healthy individuals.BACKGROUND Chitinase 3 like 1 protein (Chi3L1) is expressed in several cancers, and a few evidences suggest that the secreted Chi3L1 contributes to tumor development. However, the molecular mechanisms of intracellular Chi3L1 are unknown in the lung tumor development. METHODS In the present study, we generated Chi3L1 knockout mice (Chi3L1KO(-/-)) using CRISPR/Cas9 system to investigate the role of Chi3L1 on lung tumorigenesis. RESULTS We established lung metastasis induced by i.v. injections of B16F10 in Chi3L1KO(-/-). The lung tumor nodules were significantly reduced in Chi3L1KO(-/-) and protein levels of p53, p21, BAX, and cleaved-caspase 3 were significantly increased in Chi3L1KO(-/-), while protein levels of cyclin E1, CDK2, and phsphorylation of STAT3 were decreased in Chi3L1KO(-/-). Allograft mice inoculated with B16F10 also suppressed tumor growth and increased p53 and its target proteins including p21 and BAX. In addition, knockdown of Chi3L1 in lung cancer cells inhibited lung cancer cell growth and upregulated p53 expression with p21 and BAX, and a decrease in phosphorylation of STAT3. Furthermore, we found that intracellular Chi3L1 physically interacted and colocalized with p53 to inhibit its protein stability and transcriptional activity for target genes related with cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. In lung tumor patient, we clinically found that Chi3L1 expression was upregulated with a decrease in p53 expression, as well as we validated that intracellular Chi3L1 was colocalized, reversely expressed, and physically interacted with p53, which results in suppression of the expression and function of p53 in lung tumor patient. CONCLUSIONS Our studies suggest that intracellular Chi3L1 plays a critical role in the lung tumorigenesis by regulating its novel target protein, p53 in both an in vitro and in vivo system.BACKGROUND Inflammation and oxidative stress induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein are the main causes of vascular endothelial injury and atherosclerosis. Endothelial cells are important for the formation and repair of blood vessels. However, the detailed mechanism underlying the regulation of maturity and antioxidation of stem cell-derived endothelial like cells remains unclear. Besides, YY1 and TET2 play a key role on epigenetic modifications of proliferation and differentiation of stem cells. However, the regulatory mechanism of epigenetic modification induced by YY1 and TET2 on stem cells to iECICs is also not clear. AIM Here, we want to investigate detailed mechanism underlying the regulation of maturity and antioxidation of stem cell-derived iECICs by by YY1 and TET2. PROTAC tubulin-Degrader-1 cell line METHODS The qPCR, Western blot, immunohistochemical staining and flow cytometric analysis were used to analyze the expression level of each gene. Luciferase reporter assay was used to detect the binding sites between microRNA and tarten-eleven translocation 2 (TET2) gene, thereby activating the key factors of the serotonergic synapse pathway, CACNA1F, and CYP2D6. In addition, it promotes ability of maturity, antioxidation and vascular formation in vitro. Meanwhile, transplantation for miR-544-iECICs can significantly relieve oxidative stress injury on ApoE-/- atherosclerotic mice in vivo. CONCLUSIONS miR-544 regulates the maturity and antioxidation of iECICs derived from HuAECs by regulating the YY1/TET2/serotonergic synapse signalling axis.

The current cross-sectional study, conducted with 231 veterans, examines the relationship between socio-demographic features and both anxiety and depression in navy veterans after retirement. Spielberg's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was used for anxiety assessment, and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was used for depression assessment. The analysis was performed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version 20.0. RESULTS It was found that the mean score of state anxiety was 41 and trait anxiety, 38. Severe depression was found in 6.5% of the veterans, moderate in 8.3% and mild in 21.7%. The presence of a serious health problems was an independent predictor of both anxiety and depression's more serious symptoms. Inversely, the stability in terms of retirement choice was negatively related to depression, while the development of new interests and activities after retirement was negatively related to both anxiety and depression. Further, life satisfaction after retirement was a predictor of lower current anxiety levels among veterans.Tsukushi (TSK)-a small, secreted, leucine-rich-repeat proteoglycan-interacts with and regulates essential cellular signaling cascades. However, its functions in the mouse inner ear are unknown. In this study, measurement of auditory brainstem responses, fluorescence microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy revealed that TSK deficiency in mice resulted in the formation of abnormal stereocilia in the inner hair cells and hearing loss but not in the loss of these cells. TSK accumulated in nonprosensory regions during early embryonic stages and in both nonprosensory and prosensory regions in late embryonic stages. In adult mice, TSK was localized in the organ of Corti, spiral ganglion cells, and the stria vascularis. Moreover, loss of TSK caused dynamic changes in the expression of key genes that drive the differentiation of the inner hair cells in prosensory regions. Finally, our results revealed that TSK interacted with Sox2 and BMP4 to control stereocilia formation in the inner hair cells. Hence, TSK appears to be an essential component of the molecular pathways that regulate inner ear development.
