This study aimed to evaluate the value of serum procalcitonin (PCT) levels in the diagnosis of abscess and sepsis following transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) therapy among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

In this study, a retrospective review of patient charts was performed in 2221 patients who suffered from hepatocellular carcinoma and had undergone 8656 TACE procedures from January 2012 to January 2018. According to the diagnosis of infection and abscess after TACE, these participants were divided into infection group (group A, n=48) and abscess group (group B, n=35). Group B included subgroup B1 (suffered from liver abscess but no sepsis, n=16) and subgroup B2 (suffered from liver abscess and sepsis, n=19). The main observational indexes included sociodemographic characteristics and laboratory and clinical parameters.

The results showed that the mean PCT and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were higher in group B, but receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed low sensitivity and specificity. Only the mean PCT level was higher in subgroup B2 than in subgroup B1 (P<0.001); the ROC analysis had high sensitivity and specificity. However, all other data such as NEUT (neutrophil count) and NEUTP (neutrophil percentage) showed no significant differences.

Serum PCT level was a promising inexpensive marker for the diagnosis of liver abscess and sepsis following TACE therapy among patients with primary liver cancer. A cutoff level of 5.1 ng/mL for PCT had high sensitivity and specificity in predicting liver abscess with sepsis.

LACTB, regulated by a variety of microRNAs (miRNAs), is proven to be a tumor suppressor. However, there are few reports that LACTB in colon cancer cells is regulated by miRNA. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the miRNAs that regulate LACTB in colon cancer.

Data from TCGA were analyzed in starBase and GEPIA2, and Western blot and quantitative PCR (qPCR) were used to detect the expression of LACTB in colon cancer cell lines. MiRNAs targeting LACTB were predicted by MicroT-CDS, starBase, miRDB, mirDIP, and DIANA. The relationship between LACTB and miRNA was explored by dual-luciferase assay. MTT, propidium iodide (PI), Western blot, Annexin V-FITC/PI Kit, qPCR and transwell assay were used to detect the changes in cell proliferation, cell cycle, autophagy, apoptosis, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell migration, and invasiveness in colon cancer cells that overexpressed miR-1276 and/or LACTB.

The results showed that the LACTB mRNA level was lower and the miR-1276 level was higher in colon cancer than in normal tissue. MiR-1276 inhibited the expression of LACTB. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-1276 in colon cancer cells increased proliferation, migration, invasiveness and EMT, and decreased autophagy and apoptosis. Supplementing LACTB suppressed these effects of miR-1276.

In conclusion, miR-1276, which may be a potential therapy for colon cancer, inhibits cell growth and promotes apoptosis by targeting LACTB in colon cancer cells.

To develop an application dynamically monitoring the prostate cancer (PCa) risk for patients to assess their own progression of PCa risk at home.

Between January 2010 and December 2019, all of the 1697 patients underwent transrectal ultrasound prostate biopsy at the cancer center, which is one of the Chinese Prostate Cancer Consortium. Patients' clinical parameters from January 2010 to May 2018 were used to establish models that consisted of several risk factors with P value <0.1 in univariate analysis and with P value <0.05 in multivariate analysis (n=1113), including model 1 (predicting PCa), model 2 (predicting PCa with high Gleason scores (7 or higher)) and model 3 (predicting PCa with the high clinical stage (T2b or higher)). Other patients from June 2018 to December 2019 were used to validate models (n=440). Patients with a lack of sufficient data were eventually excluded (n=144).

A total of 1553 patients were involved in this study, and an application was used to perform the models. The predictive cut-off value and area under the curves (AUCs) of model 1, 2 and 3 were, respectively, calculated (cut-off 0.53, 0.38 and 0.40, AUCs 0.88, 0.89 and 0.89). Using a cut-off value of 10%, three models obtained a high sensitivity (>95%). Besides, more patients can be correctly reclassified via our models (42.9 to 55.5%). Decision curve analyses revealed a decent net benefit in any probability for models. These results were well verified in the validation cohort.

This application showed decent performance in predicting the risk of PCa and clinicopathology, which was available and convenient for patients to self-assess the progress of PCa risks so that being better to participate in disease management.

The goal of the current study was to identify potential prognostic biomarkers of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS).

We screened chip sequencing datasets of RMS through the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. A total of 74 RMS patient tissues and 39 normal muscle cell tissues were analyzed. Limma R software was used to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between RMS tissues and normal controls. The GO plot R package was used to visualize the results of the GO analysis. We screened for pathaffy package enrichment of DEGs by the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). check details The cutoff criterion was a P-value <0.05. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was applied to validate the expression of CDK1 (cyclin-dependent kinases 1) and MAD2L1 (Mitotic Arrest Deficient 2 Like 1) in RMS.

We obtained a total of 498 up- and 480 down-regulated DEGs. The hub genes are mainly involved in the cell cycle and P53 singling pathway. CDK1 expression was associated with tumor size and COG-STS (Children's Oncology Group-soft tissue sarcoma) staging of RMS.
