Burden landscape of hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers in Chinese young adults: 30 years' overview and forecasted trends.

Background: Hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) cancers impose a considerable burden on young populations (aged 15 to 49 years), resulting in a substantial number of new cases and fatalities each year. In young populations, the HBP cancers shows extensive variance worldwide and the updated data in China is lacking.

Aim: To investigate the current status, trends, projections, and underlying risk factors of HBP cancers among young populations in China.

Alleviation of cadmium uptake in rice (Oryza sativa L.) by iron plaque on the root surface generated by Providencia manganoxydans via Fe(II) oxidation.

Iron plaque is believed to be effective in reducing the accumulation of heavy metals in rice. In this work, a known soil-derived Mn(II)-oxidizing bacterium, LLDRA6, which represents the type strain of Providencia manganoxydans, was employed to investigate the feasibility of decreasing cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice by promoting the formation of iron plaque on the root surface. Firstly, the Fe(II) oxidation ability of LLDRA6 was evaluated using various techniques including Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, phenanthroline photometry, and FeS gel-stabilized gradient assays.

Iron Plaque: A Shield against Soil Contamination and Key to Sustainable Agriculture.

Soils play a dominant role in supporting the survival and growth of crops and they are also extremely important for human health and food safety. At present, the contamination of soil by heavy metals remains a globally concerning environmental issue that needs to be resolved. In the environment, iron plaque, naturally occurring on the root surface of wetland plants, is found to be equipped with an excellent ability at blocking the migration of heavy metals from soils to plants, which can be further developed as an environmentally friendly strategy for soil remediation to ensure food security.

Surface Energy-Assisted Patterning of Vapor Deposited All-Inorganic Perovskite Arrays for Wearable Optoelectronics.

Solution-based methods for fabricating all-inorganic perovskite film arrays often suffer from limited control over nucleation and crystallization, resulting in poor homogeneity and coverage. To improve film quality, advanced vapor deposition techniques are employed for continuous film. Here, the vapor deposition strategy to the all-inorganic perovskite films array, enabling area-selective deposition of perovskite through substrate modulation is expanded.

The significance of gut microbiota in the etiology of autoimmune hepatitis: a narrative review.

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the liver that is mediated by autoimmunity and has complex pathogenesis. Its prevalence has increased globally. Since the liver is the first organ to be exposed to harmful substances, such as gut-derived intestinal microbiota and its metabolites, gut health is closely related to liver health, and the "liver-gut axis" allows abnormalities in the gut microbiota to influence the development of liver-related diseases such as AIH.

Prognostic Value of Combined Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Imaging Tumor Capsule in Solitary Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients after Narrow-Margin Hepatectomy.

Background: The study aimed to investigate the clinical value and prognostic patterns of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and imaging tumor capsule (ITC) in solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients undergoing narrow-margin hepatectomy.

Methods: Data for solitary HCC patients treated with narrow-margin surgery were extracted from Shanghai General Hospital. Clinical features of recurrence-free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS), and early recurrence were investigated by Cox/logistic regression.

Cuproptosis-related molecular patterns and gene (ATP7A) in hepatocellular carcinoma and their relationships with tumor immune microenvironment and clinical features.

Background: Cuproptosis has been studied in various aspects as a new form of cell death.

Aims: We hope to explore the molecular patterns and genes related to cuproptosis in evaluating and predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), as well as the impact of tumor immune microenvironment.

Methods And Results: Sixteen cuproptosis related gene (CRGs) and cuproptosis related molecular and gene characteristics were comprehensively analyzed from 492 HCC samples.

Prediction of prognosis, immune infiltration, and personalized treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma by analysis of cuproptosis-related long noncoding RNAs and verification .

Background: The correlations between cuproptosis and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) with the tumor microenvironment (TME), immunotherapy, and some other characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain unclear.

Methods: Sixteen cuproptosis regulators and 356 cuproptosis-related lncRNAs (CRLnc) were identified from 374 HCC profiles in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Six differentially expressed CRLnc were selected, and a prognostic risk model based on the CRLnc signature (CRLncSig) was constructed.

A Universal Fabrication Strategy for High-Resolution Perovskite-Based Photodetector Arrays.

Metal halide perovskite photodetector arrays have demonstrated great potential applications in the field of integrated systems, optical communications, and health monitoring. However, the fabrication of large-scale and high-resolution device is still challenging due to their incompatibility with the polar solvents. Here, a universal fabrication strategy that utilizes ultrathin encapsulation-assisted photolithography and etching to create high-resolution photodetectors array with vertical crossbar structure is reported.

Large-Scale, Uniform-Patterned CsCu I Films for Flexible Solar-Blind Photodetectors Array with Ultraweak Light Sensing.

Cesium copper halide perovskite is one of the promising materials for solar-blind light detection. However, most of the cesium copper halide perovskite-based photodetectors (PDs) are focused on ultraviolet A detection and realized on the rigid substrate in the single device configuration. Here, a flexible solar-blind PDs array (10 × 10 pixels) based on the CsCu I film patterns for ultraweak light sensing and light distribution imaging is reported.

Construction of a m5C-related long non-coding RNA signature for the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

RNA modification serves as a kind of posttranscriptional modification. Besides N6-methyladenosine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine(m5C) is also an important RNA modification. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in tumor progression.

Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are found to be novel biomarkers for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and play an important role in tumor progression. We established a genomic instability-related long noncoding RNA signature (GIlncSig) as an independent prognosis factor and also investigated its impact on prognosis significance.

P76RBE silencing inhibits ovarian cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion via suppressing the integrin β1/NF-κB pathway.

Rhophilin Rho GTPase binding protein 2 (P76RBE) belongs to rhophilin family of Rho-GTPase-binding proteins and is found to contribute to the development of diverse cancers. Data in Oncomine and Kaplan-Meier Plotter databases showed that P76RBE was upregulated in ovarian cancer tissues compared with normal tissues, and patients with high P76RBE expression had worse overall survival, which indicated P76RBE may be associated with the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer. This study aimed to investigate the role of P76RBE in ovarian cancer and to reveal the possible underlying mechanisms.
