OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunction (SD) and its association with quality of life (QOL) in men with chronic pancreatitis (CP).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male patients with CP were prospectively enrolled in our pancreas center and completed the following 4 validated questionnaires: International Index of Erectile Function 5, Erectile Hardness Score, Pancreatitis Quality of Life Instrument, and Short Form Survey. Patients were classified as having mild, moderate, or severe SD based on review of questionnaires.
RESULTS: Thirty patients were enrolled in the study, of which 18 patients had SD (mild in 9, moderate in 1, and severe in 8 patients). No significant differences were seen demographic or clinical characteristics in patients with and without SD. Patients with SD had more abdominal pain compared with those without SD (94.4% vs 83.3%, P = 0.001). No significant differences were noted in QOL metrics between the 2 groups.
CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study shows that SD is present in 60% males with CP. No difference was noted in the QOL of patients with and without SD, albeit limited by our small sample size. Physicians caring for CP patients should routinely inquire for symptoms of SD and offer a urology referral if indicated.
The cargo content in small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) changes under pathological conditions. Our data shows that in obesity, extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1) protein levels are significantly increased in circulating sEVs, which is dependent on integrin-β2. Knockdown of integrin-β2 does not affect cellular ECM1 protein levels but significantly reduces ECM1 protein levels in the sEVs released by these cells. In breast cancer (BC), overexpressing ECM1 increases matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3) and S100A/B protein levels. Interestingly, sEVs purified from high-fat diet-induced obesity mice (D-sEVs) deliver more ECM1 protein to BC cells compared to sEVs from control diet-fed mice. Consequently, BC cells secrete more ECM1 protein, which promotes cancer cell invasion and migration. D-sEVs treatment also significantly enhances ECM1-mediated BC metastasis and growth in mouse models, as evidenced by the elevated tumor levels of MMP3 and S100A/B. Our study reveals a mechanism and suggests sEV-based strategies for treating obesity-associated BC.

Risk Summary

Radioactive iodine products cross the placenta and can permanently impair fetal thyroid function. Administration of an appropriate thyroid blocking agent is recommended before use of Ioflupane I 123 Injection in a pregnant woman to protect the woman and fetus from accumulation of iodine-123 [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

There are no available data on Ioflupane I 123 Injection use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with ioflupane I-123. All radiopharmaceuticals have the potential to cause fetal harm depending on the fetal stage of development and the magnitude of the radiation dose. Administration of Ioflupane I 123 Injection at a dose of 185 MBq (5 mCi) results in an absorbed radiation dose to the uterus of 0.3 rad (3.0 mGy). Radiation doses greater than 15 rad (150 mGy) have been associated with congenital anomalies but doses under 5 rad (50 mGy) generally have not. Advise pregnant women of the potential risks of fetal exposure to radiation doses with administration of Ioflupane I 123 Injection. 

The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that affects an estimated 2-5% of North Americans. FASD is induced by prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) during pregnancy and while there is a clear genetic contribution, few genetic factors are currently identified or understood. In this study, using a candidate gene approach, we performed a genetic variant analysis of retinoic acid (RA) metabolic and developmental signaling pathway genes on whole exome sequencing data of 23 FASD-diagnosed individuals. We found risk and resilience alleles in ADH and ALDH genes known to normally be involved in alcohol detoxification at the expense of RA production, causing RA deficiency, following PAE. Risk and resilience variants were also identified in RA-regulated developmental pathway genes, especially in SHH and WNT pathways. Notably, we also identified significant variants in the causative genes of rare neurodevelopmental disorders sharing comorbidities with FASD, including STRA6 (Matthew-Wood), SOX9 (Campomelic Dysplasia), FDG1 (Aarskog), and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (TBX1). Although this is a small exploratory study, the findings support PAE-induced RA deficiency as a major etiology underlying FASD and suggest risk and resilience variants may be suitable biomarkers to determine the risk of FASD outcomes following PAE.

Protein interaction databases are critical resources for network bioinformatics and integrating molecular experimental data. Interaction databases may also enable construction of predictive computational models of biological networks, although their fidelity for this purpose is not clear. Here, we benchmark protein interaction databases X2K, Reactome, Pathway Commons, Omnipath and Signor for their ability to recover manually curated edges from three logic-based network models of cardiac hypertrophy, mechano-signalling and fibrosis. Pathway Commons performed best at recovering interactions from manually reconstructed hypertrophy (137 of 193 interactions, 71%), mechano-signalling (85 of 125 interactions, 68%) and fibroblast networks (98 of 142 interactions, 69%). While protein interaction databases successfully recovered central, well-conserved pathways, they performed worse at recovering tissue-specific and transcriptional regulation. This highlights a knowledge gap where manual curation is critical. Finally, we tested the ability of Signor and Pathway Commons to identify new edges that improve model predictions, revealing important roles of protein kinase C autophosphorylation and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II phosphorylation of CREB in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. This study provides a platform for benchmarking protein interaction databases for their utility in network model construction, as well as providing new insights into cardiac hypertrophy signalling. KEY POINTS: Protein interaction databases are used to recover signalling interactions from previously developed network models. The five protein interaction databases benchmarked recovered well-conserved pathways, but did poorly at recovering tissue-specific pathways and transcriptional regulation, indicating the importance of manual curation. We identify new signalling interactions not previously used in the network models, including a role for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II phosphorylation of CREB in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

PURPOSE:To obtain a powdery extract by extracting nutritive components from shells and meats of a corbicula entirely unlike the conventional method where a boiled or baked corbicula or merely its soup is used for food and to provide its production method. CONSTITUTION:Raw corbiculas holding meats are boiled and the meats are separated from the shells after boiling. The residual shells alone are washed with water, dried, baked and powdered using a grinder, etc. On the other hand, raw corbiculas holding meats are immersed in water so as to release impurities such as sands and muds. After the addition of water, the corbiculas are boiled to prepare a mixture soup of shells and meats. The resultant mixture soup is boiled down again to prepare a paste-state extract. After water is removed while freezing this extract, the extract is then further dried. Coarse particles are obtained thereby and the resultant particles are powdered using a mixer, etc. The powdery extract prepared by baking shells alone is mixed with the other powdery extract obtained from the mixture soup prepared by simultaneously extracting shells and meats, thus producing the objective corbicula extract.

Cryptosporidium is an important gastrointestinal parasite that can cause mild to severe diarrhea in various vertebrates, including humans and domestic animals. Infection is prevalent in dairy cattle, particularly calves, resulting in diarrhea and increased mortality with significant production losses. However, the prevalence and identity of Cryptosporidium spp. in cattle in Heilongjiang Province is still poorly known. Our study aimed to investigate the prevalence and species and subtype distribution of Cryptosporidium in cattle in the region. In addition, we evaluated the zoonotic potential of Cryptosporidium isolates and assessed possible transmission routes and health effects of this organism. We collected 909 fecal samples from five different farms in Heilongjiang Province between August and September 2022. The samples underwent Cryptosporidium detection by nested PCR and small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene sequence analysis. Four Cryptosporidium species were identified, including C. parvum, C. bovis, C. ryanae, and C. andersoni, with an overall prevalence of 4.4% (40/909). Based on sequence analysis of the 60 kDa glycoprotein gene of C. parvum and C. bovis, three subtypes of C. parvum were identified, namely two previously known subtypes (IIdA19G1 and IIdA20G1), and one novel subtype (IIdA24G2). Two distinct subtype families were identified in C. bovis (XXVId and XXVIe). The high diversity of Cryptosporidium in dairy cattle and the emergence of a novel subtype of C. parvum in Heilongjiang Province suggest that dairy cattle may serve as a significant source of zoonotic cryptosporidiosis infection in this region.
BACKGROUND: Ferroptosis, as a novel form of programmed cell death, plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer (BCa). However, the regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of BCa remain to be elucidated.
METHODS: Based on single-cell RNA (scRNA) transcriptomic data of BCa, we employed non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) dimensionality reduction clustering to identify novel ferroptosis-related cell subtypes within the BCa TME, aiming to explore the biological characteristics of these TME cell subtypes. Subsequently, we conducted survival analysis and univariate Cox regression analysis to explore the prognostic significance of these cell subtypes. We investigated the relationship between specific subtypes and immune infiltration, as well as their implications for immunotherapy. Finally, we discovered a valuable and novel biomarker for BCa, supported by a series of in vitro experiments.
RESULTS: We subdivided cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), macrophages, and T cells into 3-5 small subpopulations through NMF and further explored the biological features. We found that ferroptosis played an important role in the BCa TME. Through bulk RNA-seq analysis, we further verified that ferroptosis affected the progression, prognosis, and immunotherapy response of BCa by regulating the TME. Especially ACSL4+CAFs, we found that high-level infiltration of this CAF subtype predicted worse prognosis, more complex immune infiltration, and less response for immunotherapy. Additionally, we found that this type of CAF was associated with cancer cells through the PTN-SDC1 axis, suggesting that SDC1 may be crucial in regulating CAFs in cancer cells. A series of in vitro experiments confirmed these inferences: SDC1 promoted the progression of BCa. Interestingly, we also discovered FTH1+ macrophages, which were closely related to SPP1+ macrophages and may also be involved in the regulation of BCa TME.
CONCLUSION: This study revealed the significant impact of ferroptosis on bladder cancer TME and identified novel ferroptosis-related TME cell subpopulations, ACSL4+CAFs, and important BCa biomarker SDC1.

Commercial culture of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) occurs in earthen ponds that are characterized by diel swings in dissolved oxygen concentration that can fall to severe levels of hypoxia, which can suppress appetite and lead to suboptimal growth. Given the significance of the hypothalamus in regulating these processes in other fishes, an investigation into the hypothalamus transcriptome was conducted to identify specific genes and expression patterns responding to hypoxia. Channel catfish in normoxic water were compared with catfish subjected to 12 h of hypoxia (20% oxygen saturation; 1.8 mg O2/L; 27°C) followed by 12 h of recovery in normoxia to mimic 24 h in a catfish aquaculture pond. Fish were sampled at 0-, 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-h timepoints, with the 6- and 12-h samplings occurring during hypoxia. A total of 190 genes were differentially expressed during the experiment, with most occurring during hypoxia and returning to baseline values within 6 h of normoxia. Differentially expressed genes were sorted by function into Gene Ontology biological processes and revealed that most were categorized as "response to hypoxia," "sprouting angiogenesis," and "cellular response to xenobiotic stimulus." The patterns of gene expression reported here suggest that transcriptome responses to hypoxia are broad and quickly reversibly with the onset of normoxia. Although no genes commonly reported to modulate appetite were found to be differentially expressed in this experiment, several candidates were identified for future studies investigating the interplay between hypoxia and appetite in channel catfish, including adm, igfbp1a, igfbp7, and stc2b.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Channel catfish are an economically important species that experience diel episodic periods of hypoxia that can reduce appetite. This is the first study to investigate their transcriptome from the hypothalamus in a simulated 24-h span in a commercial catfish pond, with 12 h of hypoxia and 12 h of normoxia. The research revealed functional groups of genes relating to hypoxia, angiogenesis, and glycolysis as well as individual target genes possibly involved in appetite regulation.
Introduction: gastrocolic fistula is an infrequent but severe complication of percutaneous gastrostomy. Clinical suspicion in the presence of chronic diarrhea of unknown etiology manifesting after percutaneous radiological gastrostomy (PRG) tube replacement is key to early detection and treatment. Case report: we report the case of a patient with PRG that began with chronic diarrhea after tube replacement and developed severe malnutrition. Initial treatment was not effective, studies were extended with the finding of this complication in a CT image. The use of this tube was discontinued with resolution of diarrhea and a favorable nutritional outcome. Discussion: this case report shows the importance of considering gastrocolic fistula in the differential diagnosis of persistent diarrhea in a patient with a gastrostomy tube.
