Auranofin, an FDA-approved drug for rheumatoid arthritis, has emerged as a promising antiparasitic medication in recent years. The gold(I) ion in auranofin is postulated to be responsible for its antiparasitic activity. Notably, aurothiomalate and aurothioglucose also contain gold(I), and, like auranofin, they were previously used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Whether they have antiparasitic activity remains to be elucidated. Herein, we demonstrated that auranofin and similar derivatives, but not aurothiomalate and aurothioglucose, inhibited the growth of Toxoplasma gondii in vitro. We found that auranofin affected the T. gondii biological cycle (lytic cycle) by inhibiting T. gondiis invasion and triggering its egress from the host cell. However, auranofin could not prevent parasite replication once T. gondii resided within the host. Auranofin treatment induced apoptosis in T. gondii parasites, as demonstrated by its reduced size and elevated phosphatidylserine externalization (PS). Notably, the gold from auranofin enters the cytoplasm of T. gondii, as demonstrated by scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS).IMPORTANCEToxoplasmosis, caused by Toxoplasma gondii, is a devastating disease affecting the brain and the eyes, frequently affecting immunocompromised individuals. Approximately 60 million people in the United States are already infected with T. gondii, representing a population at-risk of developing toxoplasmosis. Recent advances in treating cancer, autoimmune diseases, and organ transplants have contributed to this at-risk populations exponential growth. Paradoxically, treatments for toxoplasmosis have remained the same for more than 60 years, relying on medications well-known for their bone marrow toxicity and allergic reactions. Discovering new therapies is a priority, and repurposing FDA-approved drugs is an alternative approach to speed up drug discovery. Herein, we report the effect of auranofin, an FDA-approved drug, on the biological cycle of T. gondii and how both the phosphine ligand and the gold molecule determine the anti-parasitic activity of auranofin and other gold compounds. Our studies would contribute to the pipeline of candidate anti-T. gondii agents.

In this study, we performed a head-to-head comparison of both humoral and cellular immune response induced by different prime-boost immunization regimens of mRNA vaccine and adjuvanted protein subunit vaccine against varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in middle-aged mice, aiming to get a better understanding of the influence of vaccination schedule on immune response.Methods: VZV glycoprotein (gE) mRNA was synthesized and encapsulated into SM-102-based lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). VZV-primed middle-aged C57BL/6 mice were then subjected to homologous and heterologous prime-boost immunization strategies using VZV gE mRNA vaccine (RNA-gE) and protein subunit vaccine (PS-gE). The antigen-specific antibodies were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis. Additionally, cell-mediated immunity (CMI) was detected using ELISPOT assay and flow cytometry. Besides, in vivo safety profiles were also evaluated and compared.Results: The mRNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles had a hydrodynamic diameter of approximately 130 nm and a polydispersity index of 0.156. Total IgG antibody levels exhibited no significant differences among different immunization strategies. However, mice received 2×RNA-gE or RNA-gE>PS-gE showed a lower IgG1/IgG2c ratio than those received 2×PS-gE and PS-gE> RNA-gE. The CMI response induced by 2×RNA-gE or RNA-gE>PS-gE was significantly stronger than that induced by 2×PS-gE and PS-gE> RNA-gE. The safety evaluation indicated that both mRNA vaccine and protein vaccine induced a transient body weight loss in mice. Furthermore, the protein vaccine produced a notable inflammatory response at the injection sites, while the mRNA vaccine showed no observable inflammation.Conclusion: The heterologous prime-boost strategy has demonstrated that an mRNA-primed immunization regimen can induce a better cell-mediated immune response than a protein subunit-primed regimen in middle-aged mice. These findings provide valuable insights into the design and optimization of VZV vaccines with the potentials to broaden varicella vaccination strategies in the future.Keywords: varicella-zoster Virus, mRNA vaccine, glycoprotein E, lipid nanoparticles, heterologous prime-boost, cell-mediated immunity

Meiju Deng, Na Chen, Xiaojie Lao, Xiaolei Wang, Jiantao Fu, Lulu Xing, Hongxin Zhao Clinical Center for HIV/AIDS, Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100015, People’s Republic of ChinaCorrespondence: Hongxin Zhao, Clinical Center for HIV/AIDS, Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 8, Jingshun Dongjie, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100015, People’s Republic of China, Email drzhao66@ccmu.edu.cnPurpose: The study aimed to explore the reasons, efficacy, and safety of switching to dolutegravir (DTG) based regimens in virologically suppressed people living with HIV (PLWH) in tertiary hospitals in China. Therefore, the study could provide a valuable reference for the rational clinical use of DTG.Methods: PLWH’s basic information, treatment details, and reasons for switching were collected, through the electrical clinical medical record system and telephone follow-up. Data included the proportion of PLWH with HIV RNA < 50 copies/mL, changes in immunological indicators, and metabolic metrics at week 48 and week 96.Results: 319 PLWH were included in the analysis. The three major reasons for switching were neurological toxicity (16.30%), simplification (13.79%), and renal toxicity (11.29%). Our study showed high rates of virologic suppression in the per-protocol analysis (week 48: 99.69%; week 96: 99.29%) after switching to DTG-based regimens. The median CD4+ T cell count increased from 579 cells/μL (IQR 420.5– 758) to 642 cells/μL (IQR 466.5– 854) at week 96 (p< 0.0001). An improvement was observed in liver function (ALT: p< 0.0001; AST: p< 0.0001) and fasting glucose (p< 0.0001). However, there was an elevation in creatinine (Cr) (p< 0.0001) and a slight decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (p< 0.0001). Regarding lipid profile, triglyceride (TG) levels declined, while total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels increased. Further analysis revealed that the increase in TC and LDL-C was associated with the withdrawal of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). This observed increase in lipid parameters only concerned the PLWH who switched from a TDF-containing regimen to a non-TDF regimen.Conclusion: This study confirmed the virologic efficacy of switching to DTG-based regimens in virologically suppressed PLWH over a 96-week period. The findings also expanded the evidence of immune reconstitution and metabolic safety associated with this switch.Keywords: HIV, dolutegravir, switching, virologically suppressed, lipids profile

The displacement of a suspension of particles by an immiscible fluid in a capillary tube or in porous media is a canonical configuration that finds application in a large number of natural and industrial applications, including water purification, dispersion of colloids and microplastics, coating and functionalization of tubings. The influence of particles dispersed in the fluid on the interfacial dynamics and on the properties of the liquid film left behind remain poorly understood. Here, we study the deposition of a coating film on the walls of a capillary tube induced by the translation of a suspension plug pushed by air. We identify the different deposition regimes as a function of the translation speed of the plug, the particle size, and the volume fraction of the suspension. The thickness of the coating film is characterized, and we show that similarly to dip coating, three coating regimes are observed, liquid only, heterogeneous, and thick films. We also show that, at first order, the thickness of films thicker than the particle diameter can be predicted using the effective viscosity of the suspension. Nevertheless, we also report that for large particles and concentrated suspensions, a shear-induced migration mechanism leads to local variations in volume fraction and modifies the deposited film thickness and composition.

Activation of mitophagy could promote the survival of chondrocytes and alleviate cartilage degeneration. The aim of this study was to explore whether mitophagy was involved in the cartilage protection of KOA rabbits after electroacupuncture (EA) intervention.Methods: The rabbits were divided into 3 groups, Control group, KOA group, EA group, with 6 rabbits in each group. KOA model rabbits were established by modified Videman’s extended immobilization method for 6 weeks and randomly divided into KOA group and EA group. The rabbits in EA group were treated every other day for 3 weeks. The degree of cartilage degeneration was detected by Safranine O-Fast Green staining and immunofluorescence. The morphological changes of chondrocytes mitochondria were detected by transmission electron microscope. ATP concentration in cartilage was measured by ATP Assay Kit. The changes of Pink1-Parkin signal pathway were detected by immunofluorescence, Western blot, and Real-time PCR.Results: The morphology showed that EA could reduce the degeneration of KOA cartilage and increase the distribution of collagen II. We also found that EA could activate mitophagy in KOA rabbit chondrocytes to remove damaged mitochondria and restore mitochondrial homeostasis, which was manifested as increasing the expression of LC3 II/I, promoting the colocalization of TOM20 and LC3B, reducing the accumulation of mitochondrial markers outer mitochondrial membrane 20 (TOM20) and inner mitochondrial membrane 23 (TIM23), and increasing ATP production in chondrocytes. This regulation might be achieved by upregulating the Pink1-Parkin signal pathway.Conclusion: EA may play a role in protecting KOA cartilage by activating mitophagy mediated through Pink1-Parkin pathway.Keywords: osteoarthritis, electroacupuncture, mitophagy, mitochondria, Pink1-Parkin

In this paper, we report the new results of spectroscopic observations of $\gamma$-ray blazar S5 0716+714 from 2019 September to 2020 March with the 2.4 m optical telescope at Lijiang Observatory of Yunnan Observatories. The median cadence of observations is $\sim$ 1 day. During the second observation period (Epoch2), the observational data reveal an extremely bright state and a bluer-when-brighter (BWB) chromatism. The BWB trend of Epoch2 differs significantly from that of the first observation period (Epoch1). A significantly brightness-dependent BWB chromatism emerges in the total data of Epoch1 and Epoch2. The BWB trend becomes weaker towards the brighter states, and likely becomes saturated at the highest state. Based on a log-parabolic function, a power-law of synchrotron peak flux and frequency $\nu_{\rm{p}}$, and a power-law of the curvature of synchrotron spectrum and its $\nu_{\rm{p}}$, simulation well reproduces the brightness-dependent BWB trend of S5 0716+714. The BWB trend is seemingly controlled by the shift of $\nu_{\rm{p}}$ with respect to the observational window, and effectively may be dominated by the variations of electron average energy and magnetic field in emitting region., Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures, Accepted for publication in ApJ

In order to study short timescale optical variability of $\gamma$-ray blazar S5 0716+714, quasi-simultaneous spectroscopic and multi-band photometric observations were performed from 2018 November to 2019 March with the 2.4 m optical telescope located at Lijiang Observatory of Yunnan Observatories. The observed spectra are well fitted with a power-law $F_{\lambda}=A\lambda ^{-\alpha}$ (spectral index $\alpha >0$). Correlations found between $\dot{\alpha}$, $\dot{A}$, $\dot{A}/A$, $\dot{F_{\rm{\lambda}}}$, and $\dot{F_{\rm{\lambda}}}/F_{\rm{\lambda}}$ are consistent with the trend of bluer-when-brighter (BWB). \textbf{The same case is for colors, magnitudes, color variation rates, and magnitude variation rates of photometric observations.} The variations of $\alpha$ lead those of $F_{\rm{\lambda}}$. Also, the color variations lead the magnitude variations. The observational data are mostly distributed in the I(+,+) and III(-,-) quadrants of coordinate system. Both of spectroscopic and photometric observations show BWB behaviors in S5 0716+714. The observed BWB may be explained by the shock-jet model, and its appearance may depend on the relative position of the observational frequency ranges with respect to the synchrotron peak frequencies, e.g., at the left of the peak frequencies. \textbf{Fractional variability amplitudes are $F_{\rm{var}}\sim 40\%$ for both of spectroscopic and photometric observations. Variations of $\alpha$ indicate variations of relativistic electron distribution producing the optical spectra. }, Comment: 28 pages, 11 figures, accepted in ApJ

Therefore, it is important to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying immune evasion in NSCLC. Spontaneous ferroptosis of neutrophils has been suggested as a key mechanism of immunosuppression in cancer. Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP1) plays an important role in immune infiltration in several cancers. However, the role of IGFBP1 in NSCLC is unknown. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the association of IGFBP1 mRNA expression with infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and prognosis in NSCLC.Patients and Methods: Retrospective RNA-seq data from 990 patients in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were analyzed in relation to patient clinical characteristics. The Timer2 database was used to assess immune infiltration, and the FerrDb V2 database was used to obtain ferroptosis-related genes. Finally, the results were validated by the proteomic analysis of serum samples collected from six patients with NSCLC and six healthy individuals.Results: IGFBP1 expression was enriched in lung adenocarcinoma samples and positively correlated with the pathological grade of NSCLC. IGFBP1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for the overall survival of patients with NSCLC. In addition, IGFBP1 expression correlated with myeloid-derived suppressor cell infiltration. Notably, Gene Ontology analysis of IGFBP1-related genes revealed that the major molecular functions of their protein products were related to NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase activity. Furthermore, expression levels of multiple ferroptosis suppressor genes positively correlated with IGFBP1 expression.Conclusion: High IGFBP1 expression indicates a poor prognosis in patients with NSCLC, which may be related to tumor immunosuppression caused by neutrophil ferroptosis.Keywords: immune infiltration, immunotherapy, lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous cell carcinoma, myeloid-derived suppressor cells

Our previous studies showed that acupotomy could treat KOA in a variety of ways, including reducing cartilage deterioration and enhancing biomechanical qualities. However, the mechanism of hypoxia and angiogenesis induced by acupotomy in KOA synovium remains unclear. This study looked for the benign intervention of acupotomy in synovial pathology.Methods: The rabbits were divided into 3 groups, Normal group, KOA group, and KOA + Acupotomy (Apo) group, with 11 rabbits in each group. The KOA rabbit model was established by the modified Videman method with six weeks. The KOA + Apo group performed the intervention. The tendon insertion of vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, rectus femoris, biceps femoris, and anserine bursa were selected as treatment points in rabbits. Rabbits were treated once every 7 days for 3 weeks. We observed the intra-articular pressure and oxygen partial pressure (BOLD MRI). The synovial morphology was monitored by Hematoxylin-Eosin Staining (HE Staining). The expression of hypoxia-inducible transcription factor-1α (HIF-1α), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was detected using Immunohistochemical (IHC), Western Blot and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).Results: Acupotomy reduced intra-articular hypertension and improved the synovial oxygen situation, synovial inflammatory and angiogenesis. HIF-1α, VEGF, IL-1β and TNF-α expression were downregulated by acupotomy.Conclusion: Acupotomy may reduce inflammation and angiogenesis in KOA rabbit by reducing abnormally elevated intra-articular pressure and improving synovial oxygen environment. The above may provide a new theoretical foundation for acupotomy treatment of KOA.Keywords: acupotomy, KOA, synovium, intra-articular pressure, hypoxia, angiogenesis

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity ,Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
A magnetic order can be completely suppressed at zero temperature($T$), by doping carriers or applying pressure, at a quantum critical point(QCP), around which physical properties change drastically. However, the situation is unclear for an electronic nematic order that breaks rotation symmetry. Here we report nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) studies on NaFe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$As where magnetic and nematic transitions are well separated. The NMR spectrum is sensitive to inhomogeneous magnetic fields in the vortex state, which is related to London penetration depth $\lambda_{\rm L}$ that measures the electron mass $m^*$. We discovered two peaks in the doping dependence of $\lambda_{\rm L}^2$($T\sim$0); one at $x_{\rm M}$=0.027 where the spin-lattice relaxation rate shows quantum critical behavior, and another at $x_{\rm c}$=0.032 around which the nematic transition temperature extrapolates to zero and the electrical resistivity shows a $T$-linear variation. Our results indicate that a nematic QCP lies beneath the superconducting dome at $x_{\rm c}$ where $m^*$ is enhanced. The impact of the nematic fluctuations on superconductivity is discussed., Comment: 13 pages, 6 figures

In this study, we report a MRSA-infected patient who was associated with livestock as a butcher, from whom we collected two MRSA strains FJ0318 and FJ0322. To further understand the correlation between these MRSA isolates and livestock, whole-genome sequencing and comparative genomic analyses were performed for these two isolates. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that these two strains were homologous. Multilocus sequence typing showed that these two strains belong to ST7, which is a common lineage in retail meat and meat products in China. The genetic islands in FJ0318 and FJ0322 were different from those in other common clones, such as ST59, ST8, and ST5. A mosaic plasmid with a sequence identical to that of the plasmid pE2 from livestock was found in strain FJ0318. Additionally, a novel prophage island was identified on the chromosome. Furthermore, the sequence of the island was similar to that of phage SP6 identified in livestock. ST7 may originate from livestock and be transmitted to communities, causing invasive infections.Keywords: MRSA, ST7, whole genome analysis, livestock

However, expression profiles of ARGs have rarely been used to explore the relationship between autophagy and sepsis-induced ARDS. Therefore, we aim to identify and validate the potential ARGs of sepsis-induced ARDS through bioinformatics analysis and experiment validation.Methods: We downloaded GSE32707 data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The potential differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed ARGs (DEARGs) of sepsis-induced ARDS were screened by R software. Then, we performed functional enrichment analyses to explore the potential biological functions of DEARGs and constructed protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks. Subsequently, correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used for the DEARGs. In addition, we estimated the proportions of 22 immune cell subsets by using CIBERSORT algorithm. Finally, RNA expression of seven DEARGs were validated by qRT-PCR in blood samples from sepsis-induced ARDS and healthy controls.Results: We identified 28 DEARGs, including 11 up-regulated genes and 17 down-regulated genes, which were primarily involved in autophagy and apoptosis. Seven genes (BAG3, CTSD, ERBB2, MYC, PEA15, RAB24 and SIRT1) with AUC > 0.70 were considered possible to be sepsis-induced ARDS hub genes for ROC curve analysis. CIBERSORT results shown that sepsis-induced ARDS contained a higher proportion of naive CD4+ T cells, gamma delta T cells, monocytes, and neutrophils, and lower levels of CD8+ T cells, memory resting CD4+ T cells, follicular helper T cells were relatively lower. The results of qRT-PCR also demonstrated that the expression levels of BAG3, CTSD, ERBB2, MYC and SIRT1 in sepsis-induced ARDS patients and healthy controls had differences.Conclusion: We identified an association between DEGs and immune infiltration in sepsis-induced ARDS and validated BAG3, CTSD, ERBB2, MYC and SIRT1 that may be have excellent diagnostic performance.Keywords: autophagy, sepsis-induced ARDS, immune infiltration, bioinformatics analysis, Gene Expression Omnibus dataset

The aim of this study was to establish and validate a nomogram based on radiomics features for the preoperative prediction of cOLNM in early-stage solid lung adenocarcinoma patients.Methods: A total of 244 patients with clinical T1-2N0M0 solid lung adenocarcinoma who underwent preoperative contrast-enhanced chest CT were divided into a primary group (n = 160) and an independent validation group from another hospital (n = 84). The records of 851 radiomics features of each primary tumor were extracted. LASSO analysis was used to reduce the data dimensionality and select features. Multivariable logistic regression was utilized to identify independent predictors of cOLNM and develop a predictive nomogram. The performance of the predictive model was assessed by its calibration and discrimination. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed to estimate the clinical usefulness of the nomogram.Results: The predictive model consisted of a clinical factor (CT-reported tumor size) and a radiomics feature (Rad-score). The nomogram presented good discrimination, with a C-index of 0.782 (95% CI, 0.768– 0.796) in the primary cohort and 0.813 (95% CI, 0.787– 0.839) in the validation cohort, and good calibration. DCA showed that the radiomics nomogram was clinically useful.Conclusion: This study develops and validates a nomogram that incorporates clinical and radiomics factors. It can be tailored for the individualized preoperative prediction of cOLNM in early-stage solid lung adenocarcinoma patients.Keywords: solid lung adenocarcinoma, prediction, clinical occult lymph node, computed tomography, radiomics

Demographic information, underlying diseases, ambient temperature, and relative humidity, clinical manifestations, initial body temperature, time from onset to diagnosis of EHS (including suspected), and the duration of body temperature > 38°C of all enrolled patients were recorded. The occurrence of organ dysfunction within 72 h was evaluated, and in-hospital deaths were recorded. The patients were subsequently divided into a survival group and a non-survival group. The “case” refers to patients in the non-survival group, while the “control” refers to patients without death.Results: Of the 214 hospitalized patients with EHS, 183 survived and 31 died, and the overall mortality was 14.49% (31/214). A binary logistic regression showed that only the duration of body temperature > 38°C (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.34– 2.42) and the number of organs damaged within 72 h of onset (OR 6.54, 95% CI 2.31– 18.56) were statistically significant in terms of risk of death in hospital (p < 0.05). A goodness of fit test produced a p-value of 0.76. According to receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, the areas under the curve (AUC) were 0.989 (95% CI 0.978– 1.000; p < 0.05) and 0.936 (95% CI 0.896– 0.976; p < 0.05).Conclusion: Of the various factors involved in the early stage of the disease, the duration of high body temperature and the number of organs damaged within 72 h of onset were independent risk factors and predictors associated with death.Keywords: heat stroke, exertional, cooling, mortality

In the iron-based superconductors (FeSCs), orbital differentiation is an important phenomenon, whereby correlations stronger on the dxy orbital than on the dxz/yz orbital yield quasi-particles with dxy} orbital character having larger mass renormalization and abnormal temperature evolution. However, the physical origin of this orbital differentiation is debated between the Hund's coupling induced unbinding of spin and orbital degrees of freedom and the Hubbard interaction instigated orbital selective Mott transition. Here we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to identify an orbital-dependent correlation-induced quasi-particle (QP) anomaly in LiFeAs. The excellent agreement between our photoemission measurements and first-principles many-body theory calculations shows that the orbital-differentiated QP lifetime anomalies in LiFeAs are controlled by the Hund's coupling.

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity ,Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We synthesized a series of V-doped LiFe$_{1-x}$V$_x$As single crystals. The superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ of LiFeAs decreases rapidly at a rate of 7 K per 1\% V. The Hall coefficient of LiFeAs switches from negative to positive with 4.2\% V doping, showing that V doping introduces hole carriers. This observation is further confirmed by the evaluation of the Fermi surface volume measured by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), from which a 0.3 hole doping per V atom introduced is deduced. Interestingly, the introduction of holes does not follow a rigid band shift. We also show that the temperature evolution of the electrical resistivity as a function of doping is consistent with a crossover from a Fermi liquid to a non-Fermi liquid. Our ARPES data indicate that the non-Fermi liquid behavior is mostly enhanced when one of the hole $d_{xz}/d_{yz}$ Fermi surfaces is well nested by the antiferromagnetic wave vector to the inner electron Fermi surface pocket with the $d_{xy}$ orbital character. The magnetic susceptibility of LiFe$_{1-x}$V$_x$As suggests the presence of strong magnetic impurities following V doping, thus providing a natural explanation to the rapid suppression of superconductivity upon V doping., Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures.

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity ,Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
In copper-oxide and iron-based high temperature (high-$T_{\rm c}$) superconductors, many physical properties exhibit in-plane anisotropy, which is believed to be caused by a rotational symmetry-breaking nematic order, whose origin and its relationship to superconductivity remain elusive. In many iron-pnictides, a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural transition temperature $T_{\rm s}$ coincides with the magnetic transition temperature $T_{\rm N}$, making the orbital and spin degrees of freedom highly entangled. NaFeAs is a system where $T_{\rm s}$ = 54 K is well separated from $T_{\rm N}$ = 42 K, which helps simplify the experimental situation. Here we report nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on NaFe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$As (0 $\leq x \leq$ 0.042) that revealed orbital and spin nematicity occurring at a temperature $T^{\rm *}$ far above $T_{\rm s}$ in the tetragonal phase. We show that the NMR spectra splitting and its evolution can be explained by an incommensurate orbital order that sets in below $T^{\rm *}$ and becomes commensurate below $T_{\rm s}$, which brings about the observed spin nematicity., Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures, to appear in Phys.Rev.B (Rapid Commun.)

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity ,Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The optical properties of LiFeAs with $T_c \simeq$ 18 K have been determined in the normal and superconducting states. The superposition of two Drude components yields a good description of the low-frequency optical response in the normal state. Below $T_c$, the optical conductivity reveals two isotropic superconducting gaps with $\Delta_{1} \simeq 2.9$ $\pm$ 0.2 meV and $\Delta_{2} \simeq 5.5$ $\pm$ 0.4 meV. A comparison between the superconducting-state Mattis-Bardeen and the normal-state Drude components, in combination with a spectral weight analysis, indicates that the spectral weight associated with a band which has a very small scattering rate is fully transferred to the superfluid weight upon the superconducting condensate. These observations provide clear evidence for the coexistence of clean- and dirty-limit superconductivity in LiFeAs., Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, Supplementary Material available

A series of LiFe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$As compounds with different Co concentrations have been studied by transport, optical spectroscopy, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance. We observed a Fermi liquid to non-Fermi liquid to Fermi liquid (FL-NFL-FL) crossover alongside a monotonic suppression of the superconductivity with increasing Co content. In parallel to the FL-NFL-FL crossover, we found that both the low-energy spin fluctuations and Fermi surface nesting are enhanced and then diminished, strongly suggesting that the NFL behavior in LiFe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$As is induced by low-energy spin fluctuations which are very likely tuned by Fermi surface nesting. Our study reveals a unique phase diagram of LiFe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$As where the region of NFL is moved to the boundary of the superconducting phase, implying that they are probably governed by different mechanisms., Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures

Further studies have shown that RUNX2 plays a key role in the invasion and metastasis of cancers. RUNX2 is a “key” molecule in the regulatory network comprised of multiple signaling pathways upstream and its target downstream molecules. Due to the complex regulatory mechanisms of RUNX2, the specific mechanism underlying the occurrence, development and prognosis of malignant tumors has not been fully understood. Currently, RUNX2 as a promising therapeutic target for cancers has become a research hotspot. Herein, we reviewed the current literature on the modulatory functions and mechanisms of RUNX2 in the development of malignant tumors, aiming to explore its potential clinical application in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of tumors.Keywords: RUNX2, malignant tumor;, research progress

Radiomic features were extracted from a semiautomatically outlined tumor region in the Chang-Gung Image Texture Analysis (CGITA) software package. The differences in radiomic parameters between lung ADC and SCC were compared stage-by-stage in 253 consecutive NSCLC patients with stages I to III disease. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm was used for feature selection. A radiomic signature for each stage was subsequently constructed and evaluated. Then, an individual nomogram incorporating the radiomic signature and clinical risk factors was established and evaluated. The performance of the constructed models was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, and the nomogram was further validated by calibration curve analysis.Results: The performance of the radiomic signature for distinguishing lung ADC and SCC in both the training and validation cohorts was good, with AUCs of 0.883, 0.854, and 0.895 in the training cohort and 0.932, 0.944, and 0.886 in the validation cohort for stages I, II, and III NSCLC, respectively. The radiomic-clinical nomogram integrating radiomic features with independent clinical predictors exhibited more favorable discriminative performance, with AUCs of 0.982, 0.963, and 0.979 in the training cohort and 0.989, 0.984, and 0.978 in the validation cohort for stages I, II, and III, respectively.Conclusion: Differences in PET radiomic features between lung ADC and SCC varied in different stages. Stage-specific PET radiomic prediction models provided more favorable performance for discriminating the histological subtype of NSCLC.Keywords: non-small-cell lung cancer, positron emission tomography, PET, textural analysis, heterogeneity, staging

Recently, A2B3 type strong spin orbital coupling compounds such as Bi2Te3, Bi2Se3 and Sb2Te3 were theoretically predicated to be topological insulators and demonstrated through experimental efforts. The counterpart compound Sb2Se3 on the other hand was found to be topological trivial, but further theoretical studies indicated that the pressure might induce Sb2Se3 into a topological nontrivial state. Here, we report on the discovery of superconductivity in Sb2Se3 single crystal induced via pressure. Our experiments indicated that Sb2Se3 became superconductive at high pressures above 10 GPa proceeded by a pressure induced insulator to metal like transition at ~3 GPa which should be related to the topological quantum transition. The superconducting transition temperature (TC) increased to around 8.0 K with pressure up to 40 GPa while it keeps ambient structure. High pressure Raman revealed that new modes appeared around 10 GPa and 20 GPa, respectively, which correspond to occurrence of superconductivity and to the change of TC slop as the function of high pressure in conjunction with the evolutions of structural parameters at high pressures., Comment: 30 Pages 5 Figures with Supplementary Materials

A total of 462 radiomics features were extracted from the segmentation of regions of interest (ROIs) based on pretreatment CT images of each patient. The LASSO algorithm was applied to reduce the dimensionality of the data and select features. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was adopted to build radiomics signatures. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive accuracy of these models.Results: There was no significant difference between the training and validation datasets for any clinical factors in patients with ESCC. The PD-L1 expression level correlated with the differentiation degree (p= 0.011) and tumor stage (p= 0.032). Smoking status (p= 0.043) and differentiation degree (p= 0.025) were associated with CD8+TILs expression levels. The radiomics signatures achieved good performance in predicting PD-L1 and CD8+TILs with AUCs= 0.784 and 0.764, respectively. The combined model showed a favorable predictive ability compared to radiomics signatures or clinical factors alone and improved the AUCs from 0.669 to 0.871 for PD-L1 and from 0.672 to 0.832 for CD8+TILs. These results were verified in the validation dataset with the AUCs of 0.817 and 0.795, respectively.Conclusion: CT-based radiomics features have a potential value for classifying patients according to PD-L1 and CD8+TILs expression levels. The combination of clinical factors and radiomics signatures significantly improved the predictive performance in ESCC.Keywords: radiomics features, PD-L1, CD8+TILs, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, computed tomography

Cigarette smoking stimulates the release of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT), which might promote awakening and inhibit rapid eye movement sleep. Dopamine transporter (DAT) and serotonin transporter play a key role in the reuptake of DA and 5-HT from the synaptic cleft into presynaptic neurons. However, the relationship among cigarette smoking, sleep disturbance and neurotransmitters has never been investigated in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).Methods: A total of 159 Chinese male subjects (81 active smokers and 78 non-smokers) who would undergo lumbar puncture before the surgery of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were recruited and 5mL-CSF samples were collected incidentally. CSF levels of DA, DAT, 5-HT, and serotonin transporter were measured using radioimmunoassay and ELISA. Sociodemographic data and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scale were collected before surgery.Results: PSQI global scores, SOL, and CSF DA levels were significantly higher in active smokers compared to non-smokers (2.00 [1.00– 4.75] scores vs 4.00 [3.00– 6.00] scores, p = 0.001; 10.00 [5.00– 15.00] minutes vs 15.00 [10.00– 30.00] minutes, p = 0.002; 87.20 [82.31– 96.06]ng/mL vs 107.45 [92.78– 114.38] ng/mL, p < 0.001), while CSF DAT levels were significantly lower in active smokers (0.35 [0.31– 0.39] ng/mL vs 0.29 [0.26– 0.34] ng/mL, p < 0.001).Conclusion: Cigarette smoking was indeed associated with sleep disturbance, shown by prolonged SOL, higher DA levels and lower DAT levels in CSF of active smokers.Keywords: sleep, cigarette smoking, dopamine, cerebrospinal fluid

The Cu substitution effect on the superconductivity of LiFeAs has been studied in comparison with Co/Ni substitution. It is found that the shrinking rate of the lattice parameter c for Cu substitution is much smaller than that of Co/Ni substitution. This is in conjugation with the observation of ARPES that shows almost the same electron and hole Fermi surfaces (FSs) size for undoped and Cu substituted LiFeAs sample except for a very small hole band sinking below Fermi level with doping, indicating little doping effect at Fermi surface by Cu substitution, in sharp contrast to the much effective carrier doping effect by Ni or Co., Comment: 19 pages + 5 Figures Accepted by JPCM
