The bighead catfish (Clarias macrocephalus) and channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) are freshwater species in the Siluriformes order. C. macrocephalus has both gills and modified gill structures serving as an air-breathing organ (ABO), while I. punctatus does not possess such an organ, and cannot breathe in air, providing an excellent model for studying the molecular basis of ABO development in teleost fish. To investigate the critical time window for the development of air-breathing function, seven development stages were selected based on hypoxia challenge results, and RNA-seq was performed upon C. macrocephalus to compare with the non-air-breathing I. punctatus. Five-hundred million reads were generated and 25,239 expressed genes were annotated in C. macrocephalus. Among those, 8675 genes were differentially expressed across developmental stages. Comparative genomic analysis identified 1458 C. macrocephalus specific genes, which were absent in I. punctatus. Gene network and protein-protein interaction analyses identified 26 key hub genes involved in the air-breathing function. Three top candidate genes, mb, ngb, hbae, are mainly associated with oxygen carrying, oxygen binding, and heme binding activities. Our study provides a rich data set for exploring the genomic basis of air-breathing function in C. macrocephalus and offers insights into the adaption to hypoxic environments. Rectal cancer treatment has evolved with the implementation of new surgical techniques. Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is the most recent approach developed to facilitate pelvic dissection of mid- and distal rectal tumours. The purpose of this study was to analyse the short- and mid-term oncological outcomes of TaTME. A study was conducted on patients treated with TaTME for rectal cancer at two colorectal units in Portugal between March 2016 and December 2018. Clinical, pathological and oncological data were retrospectively analysed. Primary endpoints were 3-year overall survival, disease-free survival and local recurrence. Secondary endpoints were clinical and pathological outcomes. Fifty patients (31 males, [62%], median age 66years [range 40-85years]) underwent TaTME, 49 (98%) for malignant and 1 (2%) for benign disease. There were no cases of conversion, 49 (98%) patients had complete or near-complete mesorectum, all the resections were R0 with adequate distal and circumferential margins. With a median follow-up of 36months, there were 2 cases (4%) of local recurrence and 3-year estimated overall survival and disease-free survival were 90% and 79%, respectively. TaTME can provide safe mid-term oncological outcomes, similar to what has been published for classic and laparoscopic TME. Our results also show how demanding this novel approach can be and the consequent need for audited data and standardized implementation.

EtOH and acetaldehyde have been studied to some depth, whereas the effects of acetic acid have been less well explored. In this study, we investigated the effect of acetic acid on big conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channels present in GH3 rat pituitary tumor cells in more detail. In whole cell voltage clamp recordings, extracellular application of acetic acid increased total outward currents in a dose-dependent manner. This effect was prevented after the application of the specific BK channel blocker paxilline. Acetic acid action was pH-dependent-in whole cell current and single BK channel recordings, open probability (Po) was significantly increased by extracellular pH reduction and decreased by neutral or base pH. Acetic acid hyperpolarized the membrane potential, whereas acidic physiological solution had a depolarizing effect. Moreover, acetic acid reduced calcium (Ca2+) oscillations and exocytosis of growth hormone contained secretory granules from GH3 cells. These effects were partially prevented by BK inhibitors-tetraethylammonium or paxillin. In conclusion, our experiments indicate that acetic acid activates BK channels in GH3 cells which eventually contribute to acetic acid-induced membrane hyperpolarization, cessation of Ca2+ oscillations, and decrease of growth hormone release.Acute phase response (APR), including myalgia, influenza-like symptoms, headache, arthralgia, and pyrexia, is the most common adverse reaction to initial zoledronic acid infusion. Dexamethasone plus acetaminophen is effective in significantly reducing the incidence and severity of APR. Acute phase response (APR), including myalgia, influenza-like symptoms, headache, arthralgia, and pyrexia, is due to immunomodulatory actions and is the most common adverse reaction to zoledronic acid (ZOL). The aims of our study were to compare the differences between acetaminophen and dexamethasone plus acetaminophen on the incidence and severity of APRs and to clarify the clinical factors related to APR with initial ZOL infusion. Patients with osteoporosis receiving their first ZOL infusion (N = 96) were assigned into two groups and given either acetaminophen (58 patients, control group) or acetaminophen plus dexamethasone (38 patients, study group). APRs were assessed through telephone interviews 2 weeks later post-infuse and severity of APR, especially myalgia, and increasing adherence following initial ZOL infusion.Programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression on tumor cells is induced by interferon-gamma, suggesting the induction of an anti-tumor immune response. In turn, binding of PD-L1 to programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) triggers an immune checkpoint pathway that contributes to tumor growth. Though it remains to be elucidated, the clinical significance of PD-L1 expression might vary with tumor progression in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Immunohistochemical analysis of PD-L1 was done in tumor specimens from patients who underwent radical surgery for stage I-IIIA NSCLC (n = 228). Tumor PD-L1 expression intensity was semi-quantitatively scored and its correlation with various clinicopathological features and postoperative relapse-free survival (RFS) was assessed relative to pathological stage. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/gsk-lsd1-2hcl.html In stage I, postoperative RFS was significantly prolonged in patients with a high PD-L1 score compared with a low PD-L1 score, exhibiting 5-year relapse-free probabilities of 94.1% and 75.1%, respectively (P = 0.031). A multivariate analysis revealed that a high PD-L1 score was a prognostic factor of longer postoperative RFS (hazard ratio 0.
