However, the relationship between VM and ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) serine/threonine kinase activation, which confers chemoradiotherapy resistance, remains unclear.Methods: We investigated VM formation and phosphorylated ATM (pATM) levels by CD31/GFAP-periodic acid-Schiff dual staining and immunohistochemical staining in 145 GBM specimens. Glioma stem-like cells (GSLCs) derived from the formatted spheres of U87 and U251 cell lines and their pATM level and VM formation ability were examined using western blot and three-dimensional culture. For the examination of the function of pATM in VM formation by GSLCs, ATM knockdown by shRNAs and deactivated via ATM phosphorylation inhibitor KU55933 were studied.Results: VM and high pATM expression occurred in 38.5% and 41.8% of tumors, respectively, and were significantly associated with reduced progression-free and overall survival. Patients with VM-positive GBMs exhibited higher pATM levels ( r s = 0.425, P = 0.01). The multivariate analysis established VM as an independent negative prognostic factor ( P = 0.002). Furthermore, GSLCs expressed high levels of pATM and formed vascular-like networks in vitro. ATM inactivation or knockdown hindered VM-like network formation concomitant with the downregulation of pVEGFR-2, VE-cadherin, and laminin B2.Conclusion: VM may predict a poor GBM prognosis and is associated with pATM expression. We propose that pATM promotes VM through extracellular matrix modulation and VE-Cadherin / pVEGFR-2 activation, thereby highlighting ATM activation as a potential target for enhancing anti-angiogenesis therapies for GBM.","PeriodicalId":93903,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES","volume":"37 8","pages":"834-849"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142094319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Secreted frizzled-related protein 5 (SFRP5) is a natural antagonist of winglesstype MMTV integration site family, member 5A (Wnt5a) and an anti-inflammatory adipocytokine. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether MC-LR can induce lipid metabolism disorders in hepatocytes and whether SFRP5, which has anti-inflammatory effects, can alleviate the effects of hepatic lipid metabolism by inhibiting the Wnt5a/Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway.Methods: We exposed mice to MC-LR in vivo to induce liver lipid metabolism disorders. Subsequently, mouse hepatocytes that overexpressed SFRP5 or did not express SFRP5 were exposed to MC-LR, and the effects of SFRP5 overexpression on inflammation and Wnt5a/JNK activation by MC-LR were observed.Results: MC-LR exposure induced liver lipid metabolism disorders in mice and significantly decreased SFRP5 mRNA and protein levels in a concentration-dependent manner. SFRP5 overexpression in AML12 cells suppressed MC-LR-induced inflammation. Overexpression of SFRP5 also inhibited Wnt5a and phosphorylation of JNK.Conclusion: MC-LR can induce lipid metabolism disorders in mice, and SFRP5 can attenuate lipid metabolism disorders in the mouse liver by inhibiting Wnt5a/JNK signaling.","PeriodicalId":93903,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES","volume":"37 8","pages":"850-864"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142094328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CBF values of the bilateral anterior cerebral artery (ACA), middle cerebral artery (MCA), posterior cerebral artery (PCA), and posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) territories and the laterality index (LI) of CBF were compared between the AMS and non-AMS groups. Statistical analyses were performed to determine the relationship between CBF and AMS, and the predictive performance was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results: The mean cortical CBF in women (81.65 ± 2.69 mL/100 g/min) was higher than that in men (74.35 ± 2.12 mL/100 g/min) ( P < 0.05). In men, the cortical CBF values in the bilateral ACA, PCA, PICA, and right MCA were higher in patients with AMS than in those without. Cortical CBF in the right PCA best predicted AMS (AUC = 0.818). In women, the LI of CBF in the ACA was different between the AMS and non-AMS groups and predicted AMS with an AUC of 0.753.Conclusion: Although the mechanism and prediction of AMS are quite complicated, higher cortical CBF at sea level, especially the CBF of the posterior circulatory system, may be used for prediction in male volunteers using non-invasive 3D-pCASL.","PeriodicalId":93903,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES","volume":"37 8","pages":"887-896"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142094327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review aimed to describe the global patterns and trends in the survival of patients with gynecological cancers. We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, SinoMed, and SEER for survival analyses of cancer registration data of cervical, endometrial, and ovarian cancers published between 1980 and 2022. Globally, the highest 5-year observed survival rate for cervical cancer was 76.5% in Anshan, Liaoning, China (2008-2017). The 5-year observed survival rates of endometrial and ovarian cancers were higher in Finland (1995-1999, 82.5%) and Singapore (1988-1992, 62.0%). The 5-year relative survival rate of cervical cancer patients was higher in Haining, Zhejiang, China (2011-2014, 85.8%). Korea ranked first at 89.0% and 64.5% for endometrial and ovarian cancers, respectively. Survival rates have improved for cervical, endometrial, and ovarian cancers. Patients aged ≥ 75 years and those with advanced-stage disease had the worst 5-year survival rates. Survival rates were better for squamous cell carcinoma in cervical cancer, for endometrial carcinoma and mucinous adenocarcinoma in endometrial cancer, and for germ cell and sex-cord stromal tumors in ovarian cancer. Over the past four decades, the survival rates of gynecological cancers have increased globally, with notable increases in cervical and endometrial cancers. Survival rates are higher in developed countries, with a slow-growing trend. Future studies should focus on improving survival, especially in ovarian cancer patients.","PeriodicalId":93903,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES","volume":"37 8","pages":"897-921"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142094324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
