Project description:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in newly diagnosed patients with resectable rectal cancer with lateral lymph node metastasis. This study aims to
* further verify the safety and efficacy of FOLFOXIRI three-drug regimen
* Using multiple omics techniques to identify and confirm specific molecular markers Participants will be treated with FOLFOXIRI three-drug combination regimen. Researchers will compare another group treated with conventional preoperative chemoradiotherapy to see if the experimental group is superior to the control group in terms of 3-year disease free survival, local recurrence rate, lateral lymph node positivity rate, and 5-year overall survival rate.

Project description:The combination of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and total mesorectal excision (TME) is considered the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer in the western world. Appropriate preoperative treatment and margin free surgery are key-elements in reducing the local-recurrence of the tumor and consequently improving overall survival.
Nevertheless, the local recurrence of stage II and III rectal cancer is still high, with current levels of 5% to 10% even when R0 resection is achieved. Most of the cases of loco-regional recurrence are associated with lateral lymph nodes (LLN) spread of cancer cells, which is not always controlled by the preoperative chemotherapy. As a matter of fact, the incidence of LLD metastases has been estimated to range from 11% to 22% in patients with T3/4 rectal cancer below the peritoneal reflection.
In order to improve these poor outcomes, Japanese surgeons have adopted extended lymphadenectomy with the dissection of lateral extramesorectal lymph nodes as the standard of care for T2-3 low rectal cancer patients5. While this approach is widely used in Japan and Korea, western surgeons have preferred a less aggressive approach, indicating lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) only in presence of clinically highly suspicious lateral pelvic lymph nodes on baseline magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, it is essential to identify preoperative predictive factors of LLN metastasis.
Even if MRI is considered the optimal diagnostic tool in rectal cancer, its accuracy for LLN staging is considered poor, especially after neoadjuvant treatment. LLNs often change in both features and size after CRT, and this behaviour might not be in concordance with the response of the primary tumor.
To the best of our knowledge, no consensus exists on whether the risk of local recurrence should be determined by assessing the features of LLN on the primary MRI or on the restaging MRI. Moreover, the relation between LLN response and primary tumor regression grade after neoadjuvant CRT needs to be thoroughly explored.
This multicenter cohort study aimed to investigate factors on primary and restaging MRI associated with lateral nodal recurrence and to identify patients who may benefit from LLND after neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer.

Project description:Postoperative Pulmonary Complications (PPC) are very common. It severely affects postoperative recovery, particularly in the abdominal surgery. Patients with laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer generally have a higher age and decreased lung function reserve. At the same time, they prone to developing atelectasis due to the effects of pneumoperitoneum pressure. Therefore, they are a high-risk group of respiratory insufficiency and PPC.
Mechanical ventilation with a low tidal volume is a routine in clinic nowadays. However, this conventional strategy will also result in atelectasis formation. Therefore, it may deteriorate the vulnerable lung function of patients undergoing laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer. Patients with Acute Lung Injury or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ALI/ARDS) could benefit from the "open lung approach", including the use of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and recruitment maneuvers (RMs). Whether a lung protective mechanical ventilation strategy with medium levels of PEEP and repeated RMs, the "open lung approach", protects against respiratory insufficiency and PPC during laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer is uncertain. The present study aims at comparing the effects of "open lung approach" mechanical ventilation strategy and conventional mechanical ventilation strategy in PPC, extra-pulmonary complications, length of hospital stay, biomarkers of lung injury and changes of respiratory function in patients undergoing general anesthesia for laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer.

Project description:Shotgun (bottom-up) approach has been widely applied in large-scale proteomics studies. The inherent shortages of shotgun approach lie in that the generated peptides often overwhelm the analytical capacity of current LC-MS/MS systems and that abundant proteins often hamper the identification of proteins in low abundance for highly complex samples. To reduce the sample complexity and relieve the problems caused by abundant proteins, herein we introduce a modified selective proteomics approach, termed ENCHANT, for enzyme and chemical assisted N-terminal blocked peptides analysis. Modified from our previous Nα-acetylome approach, ENCHANT aims to analyze three kinds of peptides, acetylated protein N-termini, N-terminal glutamine and N-terminal cysteine containing peptides. Application of ENCHANT to HeLa cells allowed to identify 3,375 proteins, 19.6% more than that by conventional shotgun approach. More importantly, ENCHANT demonstrated an excellent complementarity to conventional shotgun approach with the overlap of 34.5%. In terms of quantification using data independent acquisition (DIA) technology, ENCHANT resulted in 23.9% more quantified proteins than conventional shotgun approach with the overlap of 27.6%. Therefore, our results strongly suggest that ENCHANT is a promising selective proteomics approach complementary to conventional shotgun approach in both qualitative and quantitative proteomics studies.

Project description:Plant root architecture is a major determinant of fitness, and is under constant modification in response to favorable and unfavorable environmental stimuli. Beyond impacts on the primary root, the environment can also alter the position, spacing, density, and length of secondary or lateral roots. Lateral root development is among the best-studied developmental processes in Arabidopsis thaliana, yet the earliest steps of organogenesis remain elusive. Among the challenges faced in capturing these early molecular events is the fact that this process occurs in a small number of cells with unpredictable timing. The advent of single-cell sequencing affords the opportunity to isolate cells undergoing this fate transition and examine their transcriptomes independently. Using this approach, we successfully captured the transcriptomes of lateral root primordia and discovered many previously unreported upregulated genes. To further study this process, we developed a method to selectively repress genes in the xylem pole pericycle cells where lateral roots originate. We found that expression of several of the upregulated genes was required for normal root development. In addition, we discovered a subpopulation of cells in the endodermal cell file that respond to lateral root initiation, further highlighting the benefits of the single cell approach.

Project description:Pigs underwent 5 min of untreated cardiac arrest followed by 8 min of basic life support and 22 min of advanced life support (ALS). Following this conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation, all pigs were treated 120 min with extracorporeal circulation (eCPR). Blood samples were drawn at baseline, after ALS and after eCPR and were processed to serum samples, which were depleted for Albumin and IgG before analysing them via explorative mass spectrometry.

Project description:Conventional Superstimulation (group 1) vs. Long Superstimulation (group 3) A genome-wide bovine oligo-microarray was used to compare the gene expression of granulosa cells collected from ovarian follicles after differing durations of the growing phase induced by exogenous FSH treatment. Cows were given a conventional (4-day) or long (7-day) superstimulatory treatment (25mg FSH im at 12-h intervals; n=6 per group), followed by prostaglandin treatment with last FSH and LH treatment 24 hr later. Granulosa cells were harvested 24 h after LH treatment. The expression of 416 genes was down-regulated and 615 genes was up-regulated in the long FSH group compared to the conventional FSH group. Quantification by RT-PCR of 7 genes (NTS, PTGS2, PTX3, RGS2, INHBA, CCND2 and LRP8) followed the same trend as in microarrays. Compared to the conventional group, the long FSH group responded to exogenous LH with down-regulation of mRNA for cyclinD2, lipoprotein receptorP8, CYP51A1, CYP19A1, CJA1, INHBA, SRPINE1, and up-regulation of Vannin, POSTN, GTPAse, Cysteine. Markers of fertility and follicle maturity were up-regulated in the long FSH group. We conclude that a prolonged FSH-induced growing phase is associated with transcriptomic characteristics of greater follicular maturity and may therefore be more appropriate for optimizing the superovulatory response and developmental competence of oocytes in cattle.

Project description:To explore the effects of long-term olanzapine treatment on gene expression in the lateral septum of female mice, we conducted a study using female C57BL/6 mice fed with olanzapine-supplemented chow for 12 weeks. The treated mice exhibited significant weight gain and lipid alterations compared to the control group. Subsequently, RNA-seq was performed on the lateral septum brain regions of both the treated and control mice, followed by gene expression profiling to analyze the data.
