The anti-inflammatory effects of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) against ALI have been confirmed, but it exhibits a short half-life. miR-194-5p could directly target Rac1, but the internalization rate of miRNA cells was low.Purpose: To explore the potential of the soft mesoporous organic silica nanoplatform (NPs) as carriers for delivery of TMP and miR-194-5p through the tail vein.Methods: NPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p were added to the HUVEC cell-lines, in vitro, to observe the cell uptake and cytotoxic effects. In vivo experiments were conducted by injecting fluorescently labeled NPs through the tail vein and tracking distribution. Therapeutic and toxic side-effects were analyzed systemically.Results: In vitro study exhibited that NPs have no toxic effect on HUVECs within the experimental parameters and have excellent cellular uptake. The IVIS Spectrum Imaging System shows that NPs accumulate mainly in the lungs. NPs@TMP treatment can improved oxidative stress and inflammation levels in ALI mice and inhibited the TLR4/NLRP3/caspase 1 pathway. NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p can inhibit the Rac1/ZO-1/occludin pathway and improved endothelial cell permeability in ALI mice. The co-treatment of NPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p can significantly improved the survival rates of the mice, reduced pulmonary capillary permeability and improved pathological injury in ALI mice.Innovation: This study combined traditional Chinese medicine, bioinformatics, cellular molecular biology and nanobiomedicine to study the pathogenesis and treatment of ALI. The rate of cellular internalization was improved by changing the shape and hardness of nanoparticles. NPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p combined application can significantly improve the survival condition and pathological injury of mice.Conclusion: NPs loaded with TMP and miR-194-5p showed a greater therapeutic effect in ALI mice.

Computer Science - Machine Learning ,Statistics - Machine Learning - Abstract
The extrapolation strategy raised by Nesterov, which can accelerate the convergence rate of gradient descent methods by orders of magnitude when dealing with smooth convex objective, has led to tremendous success in training machine learning tasks. In this article, the convergence of individual iterates of projected subgradient (PSG) methods for nonsmooth convex optimization problems is theoretically studied based on Nesterov's extrapolation, which we name individual convergence. We prove that Nesterov's extrapolation has the strength to make the individual convergence of PSG optimal for nonsmooth problems. In light of this consideration, a direct modification of the subgradient evaluation suffices to achieve optimal individual convergence for strongly convex problems, which can be regarded as making an interesting step toward the open question about stochastic gradient descent (SGD) posed by Shamir. Furthermore, we give an extension of the derived algorithms to solve regularized learning tasks with nonsmooth losses in stochastic settings. Compared with other state-of-the-art nonsmooth methods, the derived algorithms can serve as an alternative to the basic SGD especially in coping with machine learning problems, where an individual output is needed to guarantee the regularization structure while keeping an optimal rate of convergence. Typically, our method is applicable as an efficient tool for solving large-scale $l$1-regularized hinge-loss learning problems. Several comparison experiments demonstrate that our individual output not only achieves an optimal convergence rate but also guarantees better sparsity than the averaged solution., Comment: 12 pages, 12 figures

The key event in the progression of lung injury is Caspase-1-dependent alveolar macrophage (AM) pyroptosis. Similarly, neutrophils are stimulated to release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to participate in the innate immune response. This study aims to illustrate the specific mechanisms by which NETs activate AM at the post-translational level and maintain lung inflammation.Methods: We established a septic lung injury model by caecal ligation and puncture. We found elevated NETs and interleukin-1b (IL-1β) levels in the lung tissues of septic mice. Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses was utilized to determine whether NETs promote AM pyroptosis and whether degrading NETs or targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome had protective effects on AM pyroptosis and lung injury. Flow cytometric and co-immunoprecipitation analyses verified intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and the binding of NLRP3 and ubiquitin (UB) molecules, respectively.Results: Increased NETs production and IL-1β release in septic mice were correlated with the degree of lung injury. NETs upregulated the level of NLRP3, followed by NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and caspase-1 activation, leading to AM pyroptosis executed by the activated fragment of full-length gasdermin D (FH-GSDMD). However, the opposite effect was observed in the context of NETs degradation. Furthermore, NETs markedly elicited an increase in ROS, which facilitated the activation of NLRP3 deubiquitination and the subsequent pyroptosis pathway in AM. Removal of ROS could promote the binding of NLRP3 and ubiquitin, inhibit NLRP3 binding to apoptosis-associated spotted proteins (ASC) and further alleviate the inflammatory changes in the lungs.Conclusion: In summary, these findings indicate that NETs prime ROS generation, which promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation at the post-translational level to mediate AM pyroptosis and sustain lung injury in septic mice.Keywords: sepsis, neutrophil extracellular traps, macrophage pyroptosis, NLRP3 inflammasomes, ubiquitination, oxidative stress

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
Corona cooling was detected previously from stacking a series of short type-I bursts occurred during the low/had state of atoll outburst. Type-I bursts are hence regarded as sharp probe to our better understanding on the basic property of the corona. The launch of the first Chinese X-ray satellite Insight-HXMT has large detection area at hard X-rays which provide almost unique chance to move further in this research field. We report the first detection of the corona cooling by Insight-HXMT from single short type-I burst showing up during {\bf flare} of 4U 1636-536. This type-I X-ray burst has a duration of $\sim$13 seconds and hard X-ray shortage is detected with significance 6.2~$\sigma$ in 40-70 keV. A cross-correlation analysis between the lightcurves of soft and hard X-ray band, shows that the corona shortage lag the burst emission by 1.6 $\pm$1.2~s. These results are consistent with those derived previously from stacking a large amount of bursts detected by RXTE/PCA within a series of {\bf flares} of 4U 1636-536. Moreover, the broad bandwidth of Insight-HXMT allows as well for the first time to infer the burst influence upon the continuum spectrum via performing the spectral fitting of the burst, which ends up with the finding that hard X-ray shortage appears at around 40 keV in the continuum spectrum. These results suggest that the evolution of the corona along with the outburst{\bf /flare} of NS XRB may be traced via looking into a series of embedded type-I bursts by using Insight-HXMT., Comment: published in 2018, ApJL,864, L30

Astrophysics - Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics - Abstract
In this work, we report the in-orbit demonstration of X-ray pulsar navigation with Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT), which was launched on Jun. 15th, 2017. The new pulsar navigation method 'Significance Enhancement of Pulse-profile with Orbit-dynamics' (SEPO) is adopted to determine the orbit with observations of only one pulsar. In this test, the Crab pulsar is chosen and observed by Insight-HXMT from Aug. 31th to Sept. 5th in 2017. Using the 5-day-long observation data, the orbit of Insight-HXMT is determined successfully with the three telescopes onboard - High Energy X-ray Telescope (HE), Medium Energy X-ray Telescope (ME) and Low Energy X-ray Telescope (LE) - respectively. Combining all the data, the position and velocity of the Insight-HXMT are pinpointed to within 10 km (3 sigma) and 10 m/s (3 sigma), respectively., Comment: Accepted by the Astrophysical Journal Supplement

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
We present the X-ray timing results of the new black hole candidate (BHC) MAXI J1535-571 during its 2017 outburst from Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (\emph{Insight}-HXMT) observations taken from 2017 September 6 to 23. Following the definitions given by \citet{Belloni2010}, we find that the source exhibits state transitions from Low/Hard state (LHS) to Hard Intermediate state (HIMS) and eventually to Soft Intermediate state (SIMS). Quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are found in the intermediate states, which suggest different types of QPOs. With the large effective area of \emph{Insight}-HXMT at high energies, we are able to present the energy dependence of the QPO amplitude and centroid frequency up to 100 keV which is rarely explored by previous satellites. We also find that the phase lag at the type-C QPOs centroid frequency is negative (soft lags) and strongly correlated with the centroid frequency. By assuming a geometrical origin of type-C QPOs, the source is consistent with being a high inclination system., Comment: 12 pages, 11 figures, Sumbitted to ApJ

All included patients were followed up for 28 days or died, whichever was earlier. Patients with free T3 (FT3) of < 3.1 pmol/L were considered with low T3 syndrome. The correlation and prognostic significance of the FT3 and maximum dosage of norepinephrine (MDN) within 72 h, as well as other clinical indicators, were analyzed by using correlation analysis, principal component analysis, receiver operating characteristic curve, Youden index, and logistic regression.Results: A total of 138 patients were allocated to the low T3 group. FT3 inversely correlated with the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score within 24 h, fluid resuscitation volume within 24 h, and lactic acid levels, and positively correlated with the mean arterial pressure. The critical values of age, SOFA, and MDN for predicting the 28-day mortality were 79.5 years, 8.5 points, and 0.61 μg/kg/min, respectively. The mortality of the low T3 and normal T3 groups was similar. Considering the MDN of 0.61 μg/kg/min as the cutoff value, the mortality between the two groups was significantly different.Conclusion: Among patients with sepsis and septic shock, FT3 was inversely correlated with the disease severity. An MDN ≥ 0.61 μg/kg/min within 72 h may be an important prognostic indicator.Keywords: euthyroid sick syndromes, low T3 syndrome, non-thyroidal illness syndrome, norepinephrine, sepsis, septic shock

The primary goal for brain AVM treatment is to prevent rupture and hemorrhage; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unknown.Methods: We constructed venous hypertension (VH) rat model with end-to-end anastomosis of the proximal left common carotid artery and the left distal external jugular vein. Thirty-eight adult rats were randomly assigned to four groups: the 0-week (n=5), the 1-week VH group (n=12), the 3-week VH group (n=9), and the 6-week VH group (n=12). We measured the hemodynamics and diameter of the arterialized veins. An RNA sequencing of arterialized veins was conducted, followed by comprehensive bioinformatics analysis to identify key genes and biological pathways involved in VH progression. The candidate genes from RNA-Seq were validated by RT-qPCR and immunostaining in human tissues.Results: We observed high-flow and low resistance characteristics in VH models. A total of 317 upregulated and 258 downregulated common genes were consistently differentially expressed during VH progression. Thirteen co-expression modules were obtained by WGCNA analysis, and 4 key modules were identified. Thirteen genes: Adamts8, Adamtsl3, Spon2, Adamtsl2, Chad, Itga7, Comp, Itga8, Bmp6, Fst, Smad6, Smad7, Grem1, and Nog with differential expressions were identified using the density of maximum neighborhood component (DMNC) algorithm in Cytohubba. The expression of five potential genes (Adamts8, Adamtsl3, Spon2, Adamtsl2, Itga8) were increased in RT-qPCR, while in human bAVM tissue, the protein levels of Adamtsl2 and Itga8 were significant elevated and Spon2 and Adamtsl3 were decreased.Conclusion: The identified gene networks of Adamtsl3, Spon2, Adamtsl2, and Itga8 provided key genes for further intervention.Graphical Abstarct: Keywords: WGCNA, xCells, focal adhesion, vascular microenvironment, bioinformatics

We present the design and performance of a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope (STM) which operates inside a water-cooled Bitter magnet, which can attain a magnetic field of up to 38 T. Due to the high vibration environment generated by the magnet cooling water, a uniquely designed STM and vibration damping system are required. The STM scan head is designed to be as compact and rigid as possible, to minimize the effect of vibrational noise as well as fit the size constraints of the Bitter magnet. The STM uses a differential screw mechanism for coarse tip - sample approach, and operates in helium exchange gas at cryogenic temperatures. The reliability and performance of the STM are demonstrated through topographic imaging and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) at T = 4.2 K and in magnetic fields up to 34 T., Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures

The short-term outcomes and prognosis were compared between T2DM group and non-T2DM group using propensity score matching (PSM) analysis.Results: A total of 4250 patients were included in this study. There were 521 patients with T2DM and 3729 patients without T2DM. After 1:1 ratio PSM, there were 519 T2DM patients and 519 non-T2DM patients left in this study. No significant difference was found in baseline information after PSM (p> 0.05). T2DM had higher overall complications (p=0.033) after PSM in terms of short-term outcomes. As for prognosis, T2DM group had worse overall survival (OS) in all stages (p=0.044), stage I (p=0.009) and stage II (p=0.021) of CRC and T2DM group had worse disease-free survival (DFS) than non-T2DM group in stage I (p=0.008) of CRC before PSM. However, T2DM did not affect the overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival (DFS) on different stages of CRC after PSM (p> 0.05). Moreover, T2DM was not an independent predictor of OS or DFS (p> 0.05).Conclusion: T2DM increased overall complications after primary CRC surgery. However, T2DM might not affect OS and DFS of stage I–III CRC patients.Keywords: colorectal cancer, type 2 diabetes mellitus, outcomes, prognosis

The microRNA (miRNA or miR) involved in INSR, IRS or GLUT4 could be associated with the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM).Methods: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of T2DM with 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 7 miRNAs (miR-195, miR-126, miR-144, miR-155, miR-21, miR-93 and miR-222) involved in the insulin resistance pathway. A total of 1593 subjects with T2DM and 1656 nondiabetic subjects were genotyped. Then, the associations of these SNPs with the development of T2DM and individual metabolic traits were evaluated, such as fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C).Results: Our data showed that the C allele of rs1292037 in miR-21 could increase the risk of developing T2DM (P = 0.002, OR = 1.17; 95% CI: 1.06– 1.29). In addition, the T allele of rs13137 in miR-21 could be a risk factor for T2DM (P = 0.003, OR = 1.16; 95% CI: 1.05– 1.28). According to inheritance mode analysis, compared with the T/T-T/C genotype, the C/C genotype of rs1292037 showed a risk effect in T2DM in the recessive mode (P = 0.001, OR = 1.35; 95% CI: 1.13– 1.63). For rs13137, compared with the A/A-A/T genotype, the T/T genotype also showed a risk effect in T2DM in the recessive mode (P = 0.001, OR = 1.35; 95% CI: 1.13– 1.62). Moreover, in the nondiabetic group, compared with the rs78312845 A/G (FPG = 5.177± 0.488mmol/L; HbA1C = 5.147± 0.293%) and A/A genotypes (FPG = 5.155± 0.486mmol/L; HbA1C = 5.136± 0.299%), the G/G genotype (FPG = 4.887± 0.482mmol/L; HbA1C = 4.960± 0.397%) was associated with lower FPG (P = 0.012 and 0.019) and HbA1C (P = 0.008 and 0.011).Conclusion: Our results revealed that rs1292037 and rs13137 in miR-21 were associated with T2DM susceptibility in a Han Chinese population. Moreover, the rs78312845 in miR-195 contributed to the level of FPG and HbA1C in nondiabetic group in the Han Chinese population.Keywords: polymorphisms, T2DM, insulin resistance, Chinese population, microRNA

Consequently, developing a CD73 inhibitor as monotherapy and a potential beneficial combination partner with immune-checkpoint inhibitors needs investigation.Methods: CD73 inhibitors were evaluated in vitro with soluble and membrane-bound CD73 enzymes, as well as its PD biomarker responses in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by flow cytometry and ELISA. The binding modes of the molecules were analyzed via molecular modeling. The anti-tumor activity and synergistic effect of SHR170008 in combination with anti-PD-1 mAb were evaluated in a syngeneic mouse breast cancer model.Results: SHR170008 was discovered during the initial structural modifications on the link between the ribose and the α-phosphate of AMPCP, which significantly improved the stability of the compound confirmed by the metabolite identification study. Further modifications on the adenine base of AMPCP improved the potency due to forming stronger interactions with CD73 protein. It exhibited potent inhibitory activities on soluble and endogenous membrane-bound CD73 enzymes, and induced IFNγ production, reversed AMP-suppressed CD25+ and CD8+/CD25+ expression, and enhanced granzyme B production on CD8+ T cells in human PBMC. SHR170008 showed dose-dependent anti-tumor efficacy with suppression of adenosine in the tumors in EMT6 mouse breast tumor model. The increase of adenosine in tumor tissue by anti-PD-1 mAb alone was suppressed by SHR170008 in the combination groups. Simultaneous inhibition of CD73 and PD-1 neutralization synergistically enhanced antitumor immunity and biomarkers in response, and exposures of SHR170008 were correlated with the efficacy readouts.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that CD73 may serve as an immune checkpoint by generating adenosine, which suppresses the antitumor activity of anti-PD-1 mAb, and inhibition of CD73 may be a potential beneficial combination partner with immune-checkpoint inhibitors to improve their therapeutic outcomes in general.Keywords: small-molecule inhibitor of CD73, adenosine, anti-PD-1 mAb, checkpoint blockade, immunotherapy, combination therapy

Medical records were collected, and short-term outcomes and long-term survival were analyzed by different time groups.Results: A total of 586 patients were included in this study. In terms of surgical starting time, the midday group had a shorter operation time (p=0.017) but more complications (p=0.048) than the non-midday group. No significant difference was found based on the season of gastrectomy. The long preoperative waiting group had a shorter postoperative hospital stay than the short waiting group (p=0.026). No significant difference was found between the short-waiting group and long-waiting group in overall survival for all clinical stages. Age (p=0.040, HR=1.017, 95% CI=1.001– 1.033), BMI (p< 0.001, HR=0.879, 95% CI=0.844– 0.953) and clinical stage (p< 0.001, HR=2.053, 95% CI=1.619– 2.603) were independent prognostic factors predicting overall survival; however, season of gastrectomy, surgical starting time and preoperative waiting time were not identified as independent prognostic factors.Conclusion: Surgical starting time at the midday could cause more complications, and surgeons should be careful when the surgical starting time is midday.Keywords: gastric cancer, season, waiting time, surgical starting time

RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) was carried out to analyze lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles between the LPS-induced and control groups. We used bioinformatics analysis to predict target genes of early differential lncRNAs among obtained the differential mRNAs.Results: A total of 78 lncRNAs and 248 mRNAs were upregulated at 2 hours and downregulated at 9 hours, and 21 lncRNAs and 107 mRNAs were downregulated at 2 and upregulated at 9 hours in early ALI models. We predicted 7 cis-and trans-regulated target genes of the top 20 lncRNAs. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis indicated that the target genes for the screened lncRNAs were most enriched in three-terms: regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity, pertussis, and cellular response to LPS. Additionally, target genes of lncRNAs were the top three enriched in pertussis, osteoclast differentiation, and cAMP signaling pathways with Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. We also identified vital mRNAs and lncRNAs. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis suggested that Tnf, Jun, and Atf3 were the top three key genes. Hub lncRNA4344 (NONRATT004344.2) and cis-regulated target mRNA (NLRP3) were validated in vitro. Finally, luciferase assay results confirmed that lncRNA4344 sponged miR‐138-5p to promote pyroptosis in inflammatory responses to LPS‐induced acute lung injury by targeting NLRP3.Conclusion: Based on analysis of lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles by RNA-Seq and experimental verification, this study is the first to reveal that lncRNA4344 sponged miR‐138-5p to promote pyroptosis in inflammatory responses of LPS‐induced acute lung injury by targeting NLRP3. These newly identified lncRNA, miRNA, and mRNA might be novel potential targets for early treatment and prevention in early ALI.Keywords: acute lung injury, alveolar macrophage, ceRNA network long noncoding RNAs, pyroptosis, RNA sequencing

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) in urine are a promising source for developing non-invasive biomarkers. However, urine concentration and content are highly variable and dynamic, and actual urine collection and handling often is nonideal. Furthermore, patients such as those with prostate diseases have challenges in sample collection due to difficulties in holding urine at designated time points. Here, we simulated the actual situation of clinical sample collection to examine the stability of EVs in urine under different circumstances, including urine collection time and temporary storage temperature, as well as daily urine sampling under different diet conditions. EVs were isolated using functionalized EVtrap magnetic beads and characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), western blotting, electron microscopy, and mass spectrometry (MS). EVs in urine remained relatively stable during temporary storage for 6 hours at room temperature and for 12 hours at 4 °C, while significant fluctuations were observed in EV amounts from urine samples collected at different time points from the same individuals, especially under certain diets. Sample normalization with creatinine reduced the coefficient of variation (CV) values among EV samples from 17% to approximately 6% and facilitated downstream MS analyses. Finally, based on the results, we applied them to evaluate potential biomarker panels in prostate cancer by data-independent acquisition (DIA) MS, presenting the recommendation that can facilitate biomarker discovery with nonideal handling conditions.

We aimed to investigate the association between T2DM and the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes (CDKAL1 and HHEX) associated with insulin secretion.Subjects and Methods: T2DM (n=1,169) and nondiabetic (NDM) (n=1,277) subjects were enrolled and the eight SNPs in CDKAL1 and HHEX genes associated with insulin secretion were genotyped in a Chinese population using MassARRAY. Then, the association of these SNPs with T2DM was analyzed.Results: Our results revealed that four SNPs (rs4712524, rs10946398, rs7754840 in CDKAL1, and rs5015480 in HHEX) showed significantly different distributions between the T2DM and NDM groups (P< 0.00625). The G allele of rs4712524 (P=0.004, OR=1.184; 95% CI=1.057– 1.327), C allele of rs10946398 (P< 0.001, OR=1.247; 95% CI=1.112– 1.398), and C allele of rs775480 in CDKAL1 (P< 0.001, OR=1.229; 95% CI=1.096– 1.387) functioned as risk alleles of T2DM. The C allele of rs5015480 in HHEX (P< 0.001, OR=1.295; 95% CI=1.124– 1.493) was also the risk factor for T2DM. The haplotype analysis revealed that CDKAL1 haplotype rs4712524G-rs10946398C-rs7754840C-rs9460546G (P=0.001, OR=1.210; 95% CI=1.076– 1.360) and HHEX haplotype rs1111875C-rs5015480C (P< 0.001, OR=1.364; 95% CI=1.180– 1.576) were the risk factors of T2DM.Conclusion: Our results revealed that genetic variations in CDKAL1 and HHEX were associated with T2DM susceptibility in Chinese population.Keywords: association study, single nucleotide polymorphisms, CDKAL1, HHEX, type 2 diabetes, Chinese population

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
The bulk single crystals of of low-dimensional magnet (CH$_3$)$_2$NH$_2$CuCl$_3$ (DMACuCl$_3$ or MCCL) are grown by a slow evaporation method with different kinds of solvents, different degrees of super-saturation of solution and different temperatures of solution, respectively. Among three kinds of solvent, methanol, alcohol and water, alcohol is found to be the best one for growing MCCL crystals because of its structural similarity to the raw materials and suitable evaporation rate. The best growth temperature is in the vicinity of 35 $^{\circ}$C. The problem of the crystals deliquescing in air has been solved through recrystallization process. The crystals are characterized by means of x-ray diffraction, specific heat and magnetic susceptibility., Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures, 3 tables, published in Journal of Crystal Growth
