Abstract Objective This study aimed to develop and validate an artificial intelligence radiopathological model using preoperative CT scans and postoperative hematoxylin and eosin (HE) stained slides to predict the pathological staging of gastric cancer (stage I-II and stage III). Methods This study included a total of 202 gastric cancer patients with confirmed pathological staging (training cohort: n = 141; validation cohort: n = 61). Pathological histological features were extracted from HE slides, and pathological models were constructed using logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), and NaiveBayes. The optimal pathological model was selected through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Machine learnin algorithms were employed to construct radiomic models and radiopathological models using the optimal pathological model. Model performance was evaluated using ROC curve analysis, and clinical utility was estimated using decision curve analysis (DCA). Results A total of 311 pathological histological features were extracted from the HE images, including 101 Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) features and 210 deep learning features. A pathological model was constructed using 19 selected pathological features through dimension reduction, with the SVM model demonstrating superior predictive performance (AUC, training cohort: 0.949; validation cohort: 0.777). Radiomic features were constructed using 6 selected features from 1834 radiomic features extracted from CT scans via SVM machine algorithm. Simultaneously, a radiopathomics model was built using 17 non-zero coefficient features obtained through dimension reduction from a total of 2145 features (combining both radiomics and pathomics features). The best discriminative ability was observed in the SVM_radiopathomics model (AUC, training cohort: 0.953; validation cohort: 0.851), and clinical decision curve analysis (DCA) demonstrated excellent clinical utility. Conclusion The radiopathomics model, combining pathological and radiomic features, exhibited superior performance in distinguishing between stage I-II and stage III gastric cancer. This study is based on the prediction of pathological staging using pathological tissue slides from surgical specimens after gastric cancer curative surgery and preoperative CT images, highlighting the feasibility of conducting research on pathological staging using pathological slides and CT images.

Objective: This study aims to develop and validate an innovative radiopathomics model that combines radiomics and pathomics features to effectively differentiate between stages I-II and stage III gastric cancer (pathological staging). Methods: Our study included 200 patients with well-defined stages of gastric cancer divided into a training cohort (n = 140) and a test cohort (n = 60). Radiomics features were extracted from contrast-enhanced CT images using PyRadiomics, while pathomics features were obtained from whole slide images of pathological specimens through a fine-tuned deep learning model (ResNet-18). After rigorous feature dimensionality reduction and selection, we constructed radiomics models (SVM_rad, LR_rad, and MLP_rad) and pathomics models (SVM_path, LR_path, and MLP_path) utilizing support vector machine (SVM), logistic regression (LR), and multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithms. The optimal radiomics and pathomics models were chosen based on comprehensive evaluation criteria such as ROC curves, Hosmer‒Lemeshow tests, and calibration curve tests. Feature patterns extracted from the best-performing radiomics model (MLP_rad) and pathomics model (SVM_rad) were integrated to create a powerful radiopathomics nomogram. Results: From a pool of 1834 radiomics features extracted from CT images, 14 were selected to construct radiomics models. Among these, the MLP_rad model exhibited the most robust predictive performance (AUC, training cohort: 0.843; test cohort: 0.797). Likewise, 10 pathomics features were chosen from 512 extracted from whole slide images to build pathomics models, with the SVM_path model demonstrating the highest predictive efficiency (AUC, training cohort: 0.937; test cohort: 0.792). The combined radiopathomics nomogram model exhibited optimal discriminative ability (AUC, training cohort: 0.951; test cohort: 0.837), as confirmed by decision curve analysis (DCA), which indicated superior clinical effectiveness. Conclusion: This study presents a cutting-edge radiopathomics nomogram model designed to predict pathological staging in gastric cancer, distinguishing between stages I-II and stage III. Our research leverages preoperative CT images and histopathological slides to forecast gastric cancer staging accurately, potentially facilitating the estimation of staging before radical gastric cancer surgery in the future.

Central neuromedin U 2 receptor (NMU2R) plays important roles in the regulation of food intake and body weight. Identification of NMU2R agonists may lead to the development of pharmaceutical agents to treat obesity. Based on the structure of rutin, a typical flavonoid and one of the NMU2R agonists we previously identified from an in-house made natural product library, 30 flavonoid derivatives have been synthesized and screened on a cell-based reporter gene assay. A number of compounds were found to be selective and highly potent to NMU2R. For example, the EC50 value of compound NRA 4 is very close to that of NMU, the endogenous peptide ligand of NMU2R. Structure-activity relationship analysis revealed that a 3-hydroxyl group in ring C and a 2'-fluoride group in ring B were essential for this class of compounds to be active against NMU2R.

Interleukin (IL)-2 is a pharmacologically important cytokine secreted by T-lymphocytes. Recombinant IL-2 (rIL-2) has been modified and produced in many systems. Mass production of rIL-2 is the prerequisite for its wide application. Using a site-directed mutagenesis strategy, we first generated a gene coding for a new type of mutant of human IL-2 (MhIL-2), in which we replaced the cysteine-125 in human IL-2 with alanine, the leucine-18 with methionine, and the leucine-19 with serine. Then we investigated the possibility of its production of MhIL-2 in a Pichia pastoris system. High-level secreted expression of MhIL-2 was achieved by methanol induction. When purified with ultrafiltration, cation-exchange chromatography, and Sephadex G100 gel filtration, about 100 mg of MhIL-2 with high purity was obtained from 1 L of ferment supernatant. Biologic activity assay revealed that the purified recombinant protein displayed increased activity on proliferation of IL-2-dependent CTLL-2 cells. These results suggest that MhIL-2 is an improved IL-2 mutant that might hold great promise for clinical use, and that P. pastoris is an excellent system for the mass production of biologically active hIL-2.

Aim: To establish a cell-based assay to screen human dopamine D1 and D5 receptor agonists against compounds from a natural product compound library. Methods: Synthetic responsive elements 6timescAMP response elements (CRE) and a mini promoter containing a TATA box were inserted into the pGL3 basic vector to generate the reporter gene construct pCRE/TA/Luci. CHO cells were co-transfected with the reporter gene construct and human D1 or D5 receptor cDNA in mammalian expression vectors. Stable cell lines were established for agonist screening. A natural product compound library from over 300 herbs has been established. The extracts from these herbs were used for human D1 and D5 receptor agonist screenings. Results: A number of extracts were identified that activated both D1 and D5 receptors. One of the herb extracts, SBG492, demonstrated distinct pharmacological characteristics with human D1 and D5 receptors. The EC 50 values of SBG492 were 342.7 mug/mL for the D1 receptor and 31.7 mug/mL for the D5 receptor. Conclusion: We have established a cell-based assay for high-throughput drug screening to identify D1-like receptor agonists from natural products. Several extracts that can active D1-like receptors were discovered. These compounds could be useful tools for studies on the functions of these receptors in the brain and could potentially be developed into therapeutic drugs for the treatment of central nervous system diseases.

Background The G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily represents the largest protein family in the human genome. These proteins have a variety of physiological functions that give them well recognized roles in clinical medicine. In Xenopus tropicalis, a widely used animal model for physiology research, the repertoire of GPCRs may help link the GPCR evolutionary history in vertebrates from teleost fish to mammals. Results We have identified 1452 GPCRs in the X. tropicalis genome. Phylogenetic analyses classified these receptors into the following seven families: Glutamate, Rhodopsin, Adhesion, Frizzled, Secretin, Taste 2 and Vomeronasal 1. Nearly 70% of X. tropicalis GPCRs are represented by the following three types of receptors thought to receive chemosensory information from the outside world: olfactory, vomeronasal 1 and vomeronasal 2 receptors. Conclusion X. tropicalis shares a more similar repertoire of GPCRs with mammals than it does with fish. An examination of the three major groups of receptors related to olfactory/pheromone detection shows that in X. tropicalis, these groups have undergone lineage specific expansion. A comparison of GPCRs in X. tropicalis, teleost fish and mammals reveals the GPCR evolutionary history in vertebrates.

We have investigated the effects of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), a product of lipid peroxidation, on Abeta(1-42)-induced SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis.The viability of cultured SH-SY5Y cells was measured using a CCK-8 kit. Apoptosis was determined by Chip-based flow cytometric assay. The mRNA transcription of Bcl-2, Bax, and caspase-3 were detected by using reverse transcription and real-time quantitative PCR and the protein levels of Bax and caspase-3 were analyzed by Western blotting. The cytosolic calcium concentration of SH-SY5Y cells was tested by calcium influx assay. G2A expression in SH-SY5Y cells was silenced by small interfering RNA.Long-term exposure of SH-SY5Y cells to LPC augmented the neurotoxicity of Abeta(1-42). Furthermore, after LPC treatment, the Bax/Bcl-x(L) ratio and the expression levels, as well as the activity of caspase-3 were, elevated, whereas the expression level of TRAF1 was reduced. Because LPC was reported to be a specific ligand for the orphan G-protein coupled receptor, G2A, we investigated LPC-mediated changes in calcium levels in SH-SY5Y cells. Our results demonstrated that LPC can enhance the Abeta(1-42)-induced elevation of intracellular calcium. Interestingly, Abeta(1-42) significantly increased the expression of G2A in SH-SY5Y cells, whereas knockdown of G2A using siRNA reduced the effects of LPC on Abeta(1-42)-induced neurotoxicity.The effects of LPC on Abeta(1-42)-induced apoptosis may occur through the signal pathways of the orphan G-protein coupled receptor.

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) was initially isolated as a T cell growth factor and had been shown to direct the expansion and differentiation of several hematopoietic cell types. Clinical studies using IL-2 in the treatment of AIDS have been encouraging, due to its critical role as a proliferative signal for activated T-lymphocytes. IL-2 has also undergone trials in the treatment of several types of cancer, based on its stimulation of cytotoxic, antitumor cells. Today, human IL-2 is produced completely by genetically engineered method, and it has been proved that genetically engineered recombinant human IL-2 has almost the same function and clinical effect as wild IL-2. In the former study, recombinant human IL-2 usually comes from E. coli, in this paper the mutant IL-2 was successfully expressed and purified in Pichia pastoris for the first time. As a eukaryote, Pichia pastoris has many of the advantages of higher eukaryotic expression systems such as protein processing, protein folding, and posttranslational modification, while being as easy to manipulate as E. coli or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is faster, easier, and less expensive to use than other eukaryotic expression systems such as baculovirus or mammalian tissue culture, and generally gives higher expression level. Expression conditions of human mutant interleukin-2(the codon for cysteine-125 of human IL-2 with alanine; the codon for leucine-18 with methionine; the codon for leucine-19 with serine) in the recombinant Pichia pastoris strain were optimized via test of some factors such as the rate of aeration, the inductive duration, the initial pH and the concentration of methanol. The results from tests showed that the most important parameter for efficient expression of interleukin-2 in recombinant Pichia pastoris strain is adequate aeration during methanol induction, and the optimum inductive condition for interleukin-2 expression was: more than 80% aeration, 2 days for induction, the initial pH of 6.0, the final methanol concentration of 1.0%. With this condition, the expressed IL-2 was secreted into fermentation broth and reached a yield of 30%, approximately 200 mg/L. Expressed interleutin-2 (MvIL-2) was isolated and purified by centrifugation, millipore filtration to concentration, Econo-PacS strongly acidic cation exchanger cartridge and molecular sieve chromatography and the yield of MvIL-2 was 27%. MvIL-2 was purified to electrophoretic purity by SDS-PAGE and only one peak being loaded on HPLC. Purified MvIL-2 protein had stimulating activity similar to the wild type of IL-2 as assayed by IL-2-dependent CTLL-2 cells. However, the stability of MvIL-2 was superior than that of IL-2 at different temperatures. The activity of obtained MvIL-2 was 4 - 5 times of the wild type of IL-2, So MvIL-2 had an advantage over wild type of rhIL-2 in storage stability and activity.
