Fork-head box protein M1 (FoxM1) is a transcriptional factor which plays critical roles in cancer development and progression. However, the general regulatory mechanism of FoxM1 is still limited. STMN1 is a microtubule-binding protein which can inhibit the assembly of microtubule dimer or promote depolymerization of microtubules.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ON-01910.html  It was reported as a major responsive factor of paclitaxel resistance for clinical chemotherapy of tumor patients. But the function of abnormally high level of STMN1 and its regulation mechanism in cancer cells remain unclear. In this study, we used public database and tissue microarrays to analyze the expression pattern of FoxM1 and STMN1 and found a strong positive correlation between FoxM1 and STMN1 in multiple types of cancer. Lentivirus-mediated FoxM1/STMN1-knockdown cell lines were established to study the function of FoxM1/STMN1 by performing cell viability assay, plate clone formation assay, soft agar assay in vitro and xenograft mouse model in vivo. Our results showed that FoxM1 promotes cell proliferation by upregulating STMN1. Further ChIP assay showed that FoxM1 upregulates STMN1 in a transcriptional level. Prognostic analysis showed that a high level of FoxM1 and STMN1 is related to poor prognosis in solid tumors. Moreover, a high co-expression of FoxM1 and STMN1 has a more significant correlation with poor prognosis. Our findings suggest that a general FoxM1-STMN1 axis contributes to cell proliferation and tumorigenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer and colorectal cancer. The combination of FoxM1 and STMN1 can be a more precise biomarker for prognostic prediction.Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects 5% of children world-wide. Of these, two-thirds continue to have impairing symptoms of ADHD into adulthood. Although a large literature implicates structural brain differences of the disorder, it is not clear if adults with ADHD have similar neuroanatomical differences as those seen in children with recent reports from the large ENIGMA-ADHD consortium finding structural differences for children but not for adults. This paper uses deep learning neural network classification models to determine if there are neuroanatomical changes in the brains of children with ADHD that are also observed for adult ADHD, and vice versa. We found that structural MRI data can significantly separate ADHD from control participants for both children and adults. Consistent with the prior reports from ENIGMA-ADHD, prediction performance and effect sizes were better for the child than the adult samples. The model trained on adult samples significantly predicted ADHD in the child sample, suggesting that our model learned anatomical features that are common to ADHD in childhood and adulthood. These results support the continuity of ADHD's brain differences from childhood to adulthood. In addition, our work demonstrates a novel use of neural network classification models to test hypotheses about developmental continuity.Charcot's neuroarthropathy is a destructive complication of the joint, which is often found in patients living with diabetes. Despite the fact that its description was published almost 100 years ago, its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment remain areas that need to be updated. Its prevalence is low in patients living with diabetes, but this increases in particular situations such as peripheral neuropathy, as well as after simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation (SPKT) in patients living with type 1 diabetes. We suggest that the development of neuroarthropathy after SPK in not only due to glucocorticoid therapy, as described, but also to the rapid passage into euglycemia. The reduced prevalence of neuroarthropathy after only kidney transplantation compared to SPK seems to validate our hypothesis.BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine versus midazolam on the dreaming of patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy during general anesthesia. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy under general anesthesia were randomly divided into a dexmedetomidine group (Group D, n=40) and a midazolam group (Group M, n=40). In group D, patients received 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine and in group M patients received 0.05 mg/kg midazolam intravenously 10 min prior to induction. After bronchoscopy and recovery, a modified Brice questionnaire was used to immediately evaluate the incidence of dreaming of patients. Dreamers were required to complete a 5-point Likert scale survey regarding the contents of their dreams (emotion, voice and movement, memorability) if dreaming was reported. Ramsay Sedation Scale score (Ramsay score) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score were assessed and recorded. RESULTS Patients in group D had higher Ramsay scores and VAS scores (2.9±0.6 and 79.4±4.0, respectively) than group M (2.4±0.7 and 75.0±6.0, respectively), with a statistically significant difference (P less then 0.05) between groups. The incidence and memorability of dreaming were significantly lower in group D (17.5%) than group M (37.5%, P less then 0.05), whereas no significant difference was found in emotion, voice, and movement scores of dreaming. CONCLUSIONS Compared to midazolam, pre-injection of dexmedetomidine before induction significantly decreased the incidence of dreaming in patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy during general anesthesia, without producing undesirable effects on the content of dreams (most of them were pleasant), produces a more efficacious sedation effect during the recovery period and improves the comfort level and satisfaction of patients.BACKGROUND Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) usually presents in patients under the age of 25 years and is an autosomal dominant condition associated with mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha gene, glucokinase gene, or hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha gene. This report is of a series of 4 cases from Poland of MODY type 5 associated with mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 beta (HNF1B) gene, including a 13-year-old boy and adult men aged 33, 34, and 35 years. CASE REPORT Three cases were diagnosed late, in patients in their mid-thirties. In two patients, the initial presentation was symptomatic diabetes complicated by ketoacidosis and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state. Renal cysts were found in all patients, and pancreatic hypoplasia in 3 patients. All patients except 1 were negative for autoantibodies; 1 presented with hypomagnesemia. Insulin therapy was instituted in all cases. The combination of family history, imaging study results, and biochemical characteristics led to the decision to perform genetic analysis, which was conducted in 2 cases at diagnosis, and in the 2 remaining patients at 1 month and 2 years after diagnosis, respectively.
