A 56-year-old male patient sustained a traumatic cuboid medioplantar dislocation associated with a lateral cuneiform fracture. The patient was treated with open reduction and fixation using 2 temporary Kirschner wires. During surgery, the plantar ligament apparatus was found to be almost intact and the reduction was easily performed. At the last follow-up visit, the patient's functional outcomes were excellent.

Traumatic cuboid medioplantar dislocation associated with lateral cuneiform fracture usually requires surgical treatment. The authors conclude the integrity of the plantar ligament apparatus may play a role in facilitating the reduction.

The aim of this study was to test the efficacy of a TCM, Zhoushi Qiling Decoction (ZQD), in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and explore its underlying mechanism. A total of 151 patients were recruited to receive ADT treatment or ADT+ZQD treatment. The survival of patients who received ADT+ZQD treatment was significantly higher than those who received ADT therapy only. DU145 prostate cancer cells were treated with ZQD (50 mg/mL) for 24 h in vitro and expression levels of an array of miRNAs were examined. Our results suggested that miR-143 demonstrated prominent upregulation in DU145 cells after treatment with ZQD. In patient serum samples, miR-143 expression was also significantly upregulated after ADT+ZQE treatment, which was however absent in patients treated with ADT only. In DU145 cells, ZQD treatment led to a dose-dependent increase in apoptosis, which could be reduced by anti-miR-143 treatment. There was a binding site between miR-143 and B cell CLL/lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and ZQD treatment reduced Bcl-2 expression. ZQD treatment led to increased caspase-3 and Bax expression. ZQD treatment could promote apoptosis of prostate cancer cells by promoting miR-143 upregulation, which could be a possible mechanism underlying the inhibitory effect of ZQD in prostate cancer in patient.Our previous study showed that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes (BMSC-Exos) suppress high phosphorus (Pi)-induced calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). However, the mechanism had remained unclear. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which BMSC-Exos inhibit vascular calcification (VC). We found that BMSC-Exos reduced high Pi-induced Runx2, osteocalcin and BMP2 expression and inhibited the calcium deposition. Gene expression of human VSMCs stimulated by Pi or Pi plus BMSC-Exos (Pi + Exo) was systematically examined by microarray technology. NONHSAT 084969.2 and transcription factor p65 expression was significantly lower in the Pi + Exo group compared with the Pi group. This finding indicated that NONHSAT 084969.2 and the nuclear factor-κB pathway might play an important role in VC inhibition by BMSC-Exos. By silencing NONHSAT 084969.2 with small interfering RNA, Runx2, BMP2, and osteocalcin expression was decreased significantly. The calcified nodule content and alkaline phosphatase activity were reduced after NONHSAT 084969.2 inhibition and p65, p50, and IκB kinase-α expression was decreased significantly. These results indicated that BMSC-Exos inhibited Pi-induced transdifferentiation and calcification of VSMCs by regulating the NONHSAT 084969.2/nuclear factor-κB axis.
Osteosarcoma (OS) is characterized by a high rate of metastasis. It has been found that tumor cells can bypass apoptosis which leads to an uncontrolled proliferation, but chloroquine (CQ) can have an effect on the tumors by inducing apoptosis. We aimed to explore the effects and the hypothetical mechanism of CQ effects on OS.

We first estimated the CQ effects on proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and lamellipodia formation of OS cells. Mice bearing xenograft model were used to test the anti-tumor growth and lung metastasis effects of CQ in OS. Western blot and immunohistochemistry were used to explore the mechanism of CQ effects and the association between p-STAT3 expression and lung metastasis of OS patients.

CQ induces the apoptosis and suppressed the viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, and lamellipodia formation of OS cells
.
experiments demonstrated that CQ inhibited tumor growth and lung metastasis. CQ induced apoptosis was dependent on the lysosomal inhibition and inhibition of protein turnover. The lung metastasis was associated with the p-STAT3 expression in OS patients.

CQ inhibited progression of OS cells
, and suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis
. p-STAT3 can be a predictive biomarker for lung metastasis in osteosarcoma patients.
CQ inhibited progression of OS cells in vitro, and suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis in vivo. p-STAT3 can be a predictive biomarker for lung metastasis in osteosarcoma patients.Ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell death induced by excess iron-dependent lipid peroxidation product accumulation, plays a critical role in cancer. However, there are few reports about ferroptosis in endometrial cancer (EC). ABT-199 This article explores the relationship between ferroptosis-related gene (FRG) expression and prognosis in EC patients. One hundred thirty-five FRGs were obtained by mining the literature, retrieving GeneCards and analyzing 552 malignant uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) samples, which were randomly assigned to training and testing groups (11 ratio), and 23 normal samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We established a signature using eight screened FRGs (MDM2, GPX4, PRKAA2, PRNP, SLC11A2, ATP5MC3, PHKG2 and ACO1) related to overall survival using LASSO regression analysis. The samples were divided into low- and high-risk subgroups according to the median risk score. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the low-risk group had better OS. ROC curves showed that this signature performed well in predicting OS (1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year AUCs of 0.
