The results show that M. aquaticum has a high Cd bioenrichment ability and tolerance in water and can be used for phytoremediation of river water polluted by Cd. OBJECTIVES Conventional evaluation of anti-tumor activity on the basis of tumor size is inadequate for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We therefore aimed to assess the usefulness of intravoxel incoherent motion magnetic resonance imaging (IVIM-MRI) for evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of ICIs. MATERIALS AND METHODS A chest IVIM-MRI was performed before and 2, 4, and 8 weeks after administration of ICIs in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), skewness of ADC (ADCskew), kurtosis of ADC (ADCkurt), true diffusion coefficient (D), pseudodiffusion coefficient (D*), and perfusion fraction (f) were evaluated at each evaluation point and changes from the baseline (Δ). RESULTS Twenty patients were enrolled in this study. An increased ADC 8 weeks and decreased ADCkurt and ΔADCkurt 4 weeks after ICIs was associated with objective responses and longer progression-free survival (PFS). A decreased ΔADCskew at 4 weeks was associated with objective responses, disease control, and longer PFS and overall survival. There was no correlation between the efficacy of ICIs and D, D* and f. All of three patients who had pseudoprogression had decreased ΔADCskew at 4 weeks and two of them had decreased ΔADCkurt at 4 weeks. Inversely, all five patients who had progressive disease (PD) did not have increased ΔADCskew at 4 weeks and only one of them had decreased ΔADCkurt at 4 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Changes in histograms of ADC may be useful for predicting long-term efficacy and distinguishing between pseudoprogression and actual PD after ICIs. V.OBJECTIVES Little is known regarding the ICPi efficacy in LCNEC. https://www.selleckchem.com/pharmacological_MAPK.html We explored the efficacy and safety of ICPi in LCNEC and assessed its impact on OS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-seven consecutive patients with advanced LCNEC were selected from the Davidoff Cancer Center database. These were divided into groups A1 (patients treated with ICPi, n-23) and A2 (patients not treated with ICPi, n-14). Additionally, group A1* was introduced (patients treated with ICPi as a monotherapy, n-21). Another cohort of advanced non-LCNEC lung cancer patients treated with nivolumab at five Israeli cancer centers was chosen as a comparator (group B, n-270). ORR, PFS with ICPi in group A1* were assessed (RECIST 1.1), OS with ICPi was compared between groups A1* and B. OS since advanced disease diagnosis (OSDx) was compared between groups A1 and A2. RESULTS In group A1*, ORR and median PFS with ICPi were 33 %, and 4.2 months (95 % CI, 2.4-8.1), respectively. With median follow-up since start of ICPi of 6.2 months [IQR 2.2-12.1] and 4.9 months [IQR 2.3-8.9] in groups A1* and B, respectively, 52 % and 64 % of patients died in groups A1* and B, respectively. Median OS with ICPi comprised 11.8 months (95 % CI, 3.7-NR) and 6.9 months (95 % CI, 5.5-8.1) in groups A1* and B, respectively (p-0.23). Median OSDx was 14.5 months (95 % CI, 10.1-38.9) and 10.3 months (95 % CI, 2.6-NR), in groups A1 and A2, respectively (p-0.54). CONCLUSION In advanced LCNEC, ICPi outcomes are comparable to the outcomes observed in advanced NSCLC. Future research is needed to clarify the impact of ICPi on OS, and to correlate its benefit with tumor mutational landscape. The impact of culture conditions on equine monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDC) generation has not been fully characterized. We hypothesized that 1) MoDC could be cultured in a commercially available serum-free medium (AIM-V); and 2) that differential culture conditions would influence MoDC viability, yield and phenotype. MoDC generated from adult horses were cultured under variable conditions in a series of experiments. Viability was assessed using trypan blue and propidium iodide staining. Yield was determined by manual hemocytometer counting. Phenotype was assessed by flow cytometric analysis of surface markers (MHC class-II, CD86 and CD14). Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and repeated measures ANOVA. Two MoDC populations that differed in size and phenotype were identified larger MoDC (LgMoDC) and smaller MoDC (SmMoDC). Medium type, plate chemistry, or length of monocyte adhesion time did not impact MoDC viability or yield. LgMoDC generated in serum-free medium expressed more MHC class-II and CD86 (P ≤ 0.03). A prolonged duration in culture reduced MoDC yield (P ≤ 0.04). MoDC can be consistently and reliably generated using AIM-V serum-free medium in standard tissue culture plates with a recommended culture duration of 3-4 days. Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a zoonotic pathogen spreading worldwide. Pig was known as its first and main animal reservoir. In China, pork consumption is very large and the risk of potential HEV contamination should not be underestimated. The present study aims to develop a quantitative real-time reverse transcription combining recombinase polymerase amplification assay (RT-qRPA) for the rapid detection of HEV RNA presence in raw pork liver on the Jinzhou markets in China. Methods the specific primers and probes for RT-qRPA assay were designed targeting the ORF2/3 conserved region in genotype 4 swine HEV isolate (accession no. DQ279091.2) according to the TwistDx manual instructions. The specificity, sensitivity and reproducibility evaluations of the RT-qRPA method were subsequently conducted in assessing agreement with the standard RT-qPCR method. Results the qRPA method step exhibited the obvious time-saving advantage which worked under the isothermal condition at 39 °C within about 30 min to complete the run the routine monitoring of HEV contamination in the field. A trial was operated to assess the potential of using Lactobacillus plantarum L-137 (L-137) and/or β-glucan (BG) in improving the resistance of Nile tilapia against Aeromonas hydrophila. Control diet and 3 diets supplemented with L-137, BG or L-137 + BG were prepared. Final body weight, specific growth rate, superoxide dismutase, and catalase showed considerably (P less then .05) increased values in L-137 or L-137/BG groups, while glutathione peroxidase increased significantly (P less then .05) only in L-137/BG group. Fish fed L-137 and/or BG diets showed that feed conversion ratio and malonaldehyde levels were significantly decreased (P less then .05). Also, both L-137 and BG helped Nile tilapia to have high phagocytosis activity and relative expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) and interferon-gamma (INF-γ) genes. After A. hydrophila challenge, the intestinal villi epithelium of the L-137/BG group was intact and denser than the other groups. The hepatopancreas and spleen of the control group displayed severe necrosis in hepatocytes and congestion of blood sinusoids in addition to diffuse vacuolation.
