Hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are serious interrelated public health problems. Despite the monitoring and control of high blood pressure, symptoms of CKD are not usually apparent in its early stages. Previously, we reported the utility of urinary vanin-1 as an early biomarker of kidney injury in spontaneously hypertensive rats, but it remains unknown whether urinary vanin-1 is associated with CKD in humans. In this study, we estimated associations between urinary vanin-1 and parameters of kidney function in a cross-sectional study of hypertensive patients. We measured concentrations of vanin-1 using spot urine from 147 adult hypertensive patients (mean age, 72.8 years; 39.5% women). Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the median of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/lee011.html The group with eGFR less then 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 showed significantly higher levels of urinary vanin-1 than those with eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2. On univariate analysis, urinary vanin-1 as well as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) showed significant negative correlations with eGFR; however, multivariate analysis revealed that urinary vanin-1, but not NGAL, significantly correlated with eGFR. In addition, urinary vanin-1 had a significant positive correlation with the urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) (r = 0.21; P = .021) and albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) (r = 0.61; P less then .01). In conclusion, urinary vanin-1 is associated with lower eGFR and higher UPCR and UACR, and might be a potential marker of decreased kidney function in hypertensive patients. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.Skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) is a multifactorial disease that presents a poor prognosis due to its rapid progression towards metastasis. This study focused on the identification of prognostic differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between primary and metastatic SKCM. DEGs were obtained using three chip data sets from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The protein-protein interaction network was described by STRING and Cytoscape. Kaplan-Meier curves were implemented to evaluate survival benefits within distinct groups. A total of 258 DEGs were distinguished as possible candidate biomarkers. Besides, survival curves indicated that DSG3, DSC3, PKP1, EVPL, IVL, FLG, SPRR1A and SPRR1B were of significant value to predict the metastatic transformation of melanoma. To further validate our hypotheses, functional enrichment and significant pathways of the hub genes were performed to indicate that the most involved considerable path. In summary, this study identified substantial DEGs participating in melanoma metastasis. DGS3, DSC3, PKP1, EVPL, IVL, FLG, SPRR1A and SPRR1B may be considered as new biomarkers in the therapeutics of metastatic melanoma, which might help us predict the potential metastatic capability of SKCM patients, thus provide earlier precautionary treatments. However, further experiments are still required to support the specific mechanisms of these hub genes.Cancer immunotherapy often reflects the improvement in both short-term risk reduction and long-term survival. In this scenario, a mixture cure model can be used for the trial design. However, the hazard functions based on the mixture cure model between two groups will ultimately crossover. Thus, the conventional assumption of proportional hazards may be violated and study design using standard log-rank test (LRT) could lose power if the main interest is to detect the improvement of long-term survival. In this paper, we propose a change sign weighted LRT for the trial design. We derived a sample size formula for the weighted LRT, which can be used for designing cancer immunotherapy trials to detect both short-term risk reduction and long-term survival. Simulation studies are conducted to compare the efficiency between the standard LRT and the change sign weighted LRT.The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by granulosa cell (GC) dysfunction. m6 A modification affects GC function in patients with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), but the role of m6 A modification in PCOS is unknown. The purpose of the prospective comparative study was to analyse the m6 A profile of the luteinized GCs from normovulatory women and non-obese PCOS patients following controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. RNA m6 A methylation levels were measured by m6 A quantification assay in the luteinized GCs of the controls and PCOS patients. Then, m6 A profiles were analysed by methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq). We reported that the m6 A level was increased in the luteinized GCs of PCOS patients. Comparative analysis revealed differences between the m6 A profiles from the luteinized GC of the controls and PCOS patients. We identified FOXO3 mRNA with reduced m6 A modification in the luteinized GCs of PCOS patients. Selectively knocking down m6 A methyltransferases or demethylases altered expression of FOXO3 in the luteinized GCs from the controls, but did not in PCOS patients. These suggested an absence of m6 A-mediated transcription of FOXO3 in the luteinized GCs of PCOS patients. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the involvement of m6 A in the stability of the FOXO3 mRNA that is regulated via a putative methylation site in the 3'-UTR only in the luteinized GCs of the controls. In summary, our findings showed that altered m6 A modification was involved in up-regulated expression of FOXO3 mRNA in the luteinized GCs from non-obese PCOS patients following controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. The aim of our study was to characterize the clinical features of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in a real-world setting using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database. The irAEs were defined using the preferred terms of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities. irAEs were categorized as follows adrenal insufficiency, colitis, eye diseases, hematological disorder, hepatitis, hyperthyroidism, hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, myasthenia gravis, myocarditis, nephritis/renal dysfunction, pneumonitis, rash, and type 1 diabetes mellitus. We used several indices such as reporting odds ratio (ROR) to assess disproportionality in pharmacovigilance data, time-to-onset analysis using Weibull shape parameters, and the association rule mining technique to evaluate possible risk factors between variables in the spontaneous reporting system database. The JADER database contained 534 688 reports from April 2004 to June 2018. The RORs of pneumonitis including interstitial lung disease for nivolumab, pembrolizumab, and ipilimumab were 7.
