| 1 | Relationship between Fusobacterium nucleatum,inflammatory mediators and microRNAs in colorectal carcinogenesis显示文摘AIM To examine the effect of Fusobacterium nucleatum(F. nucleatum) on the microenvironment of colonic neoplasms and the expression of inflammatory mediators and microRNAs(miRNAs).METHODS Levels of F. nucleatum DNA, cytokine gene mRNA(TLR2, TLR4, NFKB1, TNF, IL1 B, IL6 and IL8), and potentially interacting miRNAs(miR-21-3p, miR-22-3p, mi R-28-5p, miR-34a-5p, miR-135b-5p) were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR) TaqMan? assays in DNA and/or RNA extracted from the disease and adjacent normal fresh tissues of 27 colorectal adenoma(CRA) and 43 colorectal cancer(CRC) patients. KRAS mutations were detected by direct sequencing and microsatellite instability(MSI) status by multiplex PCR. Cytoscape v3.1.1 was used to construct the postulated miRNA:mRNA interaction network.RESULTS Overabundance of F. nucleatum in neoplastic tissue compared to matched normal tissue was detected in CRA(51.8%) and more markedly in CRC(72.1%). We observed significantly greater expression of TLR4, IL1 B, IL8, and miR-135 b in CRA lesions and TLR2, IL1 B, IL6, IL8, mi R-34 a and miR-135 b in CRC tumours compared to their respective normal tissues. Only two transcripts for miR-22 and miR-28 were exclusively downregulated in CRC tumour samples. The mRNA expression of IL1 B, IL6, IL8 and miR-22 was positively correlated with F. nucleatum quantification in CRC tumours. The mRNA expression of miR-135 b and TNF was inversely correlated. The miRNA:mRNA interaction network suggested that the upregulation of miR-34 a in CRC proceeds via a TLR2/TLR4-dependent response to F. nucleatum. Finally, KRAS mutations were more frequently observed in CRC samples infected with F. nucleatum and were associated with greater expression of miR-21 in CRA, while IL8 was upregulated in MSI-high CRC.CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that F. nucleatum is a risk factor for CRC by increasing the expression of inflammatory mediators through a possible mi RNA-mediated activation of TLR2/TLR4. | Marcela Alcantara Proenca Joice Matos Biselli Maysa Succi Fábio Eduardo Severino Gustavo Noriz Berardinelli Alaor Caetano Rui Manuel Reis David J Hughes Ana Elizabete Silva | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,47: | 15 |
| 2 | Clinical and pathological characterization of epstein-barr virus-associated gastric carcinomas in portugal显示文摘AIM To determine the prevalence of epstein-barr virus(eb V)-associated gastric carcinomas in the North Region of Portugal and to study its clinicopathological characteristics. METHODS We have performed a retrospective study including a total of 179 consecutive patients with gastric cancer(GC) submitted to gastrectomy during 2011 at the Portuguese Oncology Institute of Porto. Clinical and pathological data was collected from individual clinical records and inserted on a database with unique codification. Tumour tissues were collected from the institutional tumour bank. eb V was detected by in situ hybridization for the detection of eb V-encoded small RNAs(ebe Rs) and eb V latent proteins(LMP1 and LMP2 A) were detected by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS The analysis showed that eb V-associated gastric carcinomas(eb Va GC) represents 8.4%(15/179) of all GC cases, with a significant differential distribution among histological types(P < 0.001): 100%(3/3) of medullary carcinomas, 100%(1/1) of adenosquamous carcinoma, 8.7%(8/92) of tubular adenocarcinomas, 8.0%(2/25) of mixed carcinomas and 2%(1/51) in poorly cohesive carcinomas. The analysis revealed a higher predominance of eb Va GC in the upper third and middle(cardia, fundus and body) of the stomach(P = 0.041), a significant lower number of regional lymph nodes invasion(P = 0.025) and a tendency for better prognosis(P = 0.222). eb V latent protein expression revealed that all eb Va GC cases were LMP1-negative, nevertheless 6 cases(40%) expressed LPM2 A, which reveals that these cases show a distinct eb V-Latency profile(latency II-like).CONCLUSION eb Va GC represents 8.4% of all GC in the North Region of Portugal. The eb V-infected patients have specific clinic-pathological features that should be further explored to develop new strategies of management and treatment. | Joana Ribeiro Andreia Oliveira Mariana Malta Claudia Oliveira Fernanda Silva Ana Galaghar Luís Pedro Afonso Maria Cassiano Neves Rui Medeiros Pedro Pimentel-Nunes Hugo Sousa | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,40: | 9 |
| 3 | Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss:Effectiveness of salvage treatment with low-dose intratympanic dexamethasone显示文摘Objectives:To evaluate hearing outcome of salvage treatment with intratympanic steroids(ITS)in idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss(ISSNHL)refractory to initial systemic steroid(SS)therapy.Material and methods:A retrospective medical chart review was conducted on 54 consecutive patients with ISSNHL refractory to SS.Salvage treatment with a low dose intratympanic dexamethasone(4 mg/ml)was offered after one week of primary treatment.Patients were divided into two groups:25 patients accepted ITS(treatment group)and 29 patients did not undergo additional treatment(control group).A pure tone average(PTA)gain of at least 10 dB was considered hearing improvement.Results:Hearing improvement rate was higher in ITS group compared to control group(40%vs.13.8%,p=0.035).A mean PTA improvement of 8.6±9.8 dB was observed in the ITS group and,whereas the control group had an average hearing gain of 0.7±2 dB(p<0.001).Audiometric analysis revealed a significant hearing gain in ITS group at all tested frequencies compared to control group(p<0.05).Analysis of the selected variables,identified intratympanic steroid treatment as the only independent prognostic factor for hearing improvement(OR=4.2,95%CI:1.1e15.7;p=0.04).Conclusion:Intratympanic low dose dexamethasone is effective in patients with incomplete hearing recovery after primary systemic steroid treatment. | Pedro Salvador Francisco Moreira da Silva Rui Fonseca | 2021 | Journal of Otology2021,16,1: | 3 |
| 4 | Metal alginates for polyphenol delivery systems: Studies on crosslinking ions and easy-to-use patches for release of protective flavonoids in skin显示文摘Incorporation of bioactive natural compounds like polyphenols is an attractive approach for enhanced functionalities of biomaterials.In particular flavonoids have important pharmacological activities,and controlled release systems may be instrumental to realize the full potential of these phytochemicals.Alginate presents interesting attributes for dermal and other biomaterial applications,and studies were carried here to support the development of polyphenol-loaded alginate systems.Studies of capillary viscosity indicated that ionic medium is an effective strategy to modulate the polyelectrolyte effect and viscosity properties of alginates.On gelation,considerable differences were observed between alginate gels produced with Ca^2+,Ba^2+,Cu^2+,Fe^2+,Fe^3+and Zn^2+as crosslinkers,especially concerning shrinkage and morphological regularity.Stability assays with different polyphenols in the presence of alginate-gelling cations pointed to the choice of calcium,barium and zinc as safer crosslinkers.Alginate-based films loaded with epicatechin were prepared and the kinetics of release of the flavonoid investigated.The results with calcium,barium and zinc alginate matrices indicated that the release dynamics is dependent on film thicknesses,but also on the crosslinking metal used.On these grounds,an alginate-based system of convenient use was devised,so that flavonoids can be easily loaded at simple point-of-care conditions before dermal application.This epicatechin-loaded patch was tested on an ex-vivo skin model and demonstrated capacity to deliver therapeutically relevant concentrations on skin surface.Moreover,the flavonoid released was not modified and retained full antioxidant bioactivity.The alginate-based system proposed offers a multifunctional approach for flavonoid controllable delivery and protection of skin injured or under risk. | João Silva Pavlo Vanat Dorinda Marques-da-Silva Joaquim Rui Rodrigues Ricardo Lagoa | 2020 | Bioactive Materials2020,5,3: | 2 |

| 6 | Tracheobronchial Polyflex stents for the management of benign refractory hypopharyngeal strictures显示文摘AIM:To describe a modified technique for placement of a tracheobronchial self-expanding plastic stent(SEPS) in patients with benign refractory hypopharyngeal strictures in order to improve dysphagia and allow stricture remodeling.METHODS:A case series of four consecutive patients with complex hypopharyngeal strictures after combinedtherapy for laryngeal cancer,previously submitted to multiple sessions of dilation without lasting improvement,is presented.All patients underwent placement of a small diameter and unflared tracheobronchial SEPS.Main outcome measurements were improvement of dysphagia and avoiding of repeated dilation.RESULTS:The modified introducer system allowed an easy and technically successful deployment of the tracheobronchial Polyflex stent through the stricture.All four patients developed complications related to stent placement.Two patients had stent migration(one proximal and one distal),two patients developed phanryngocutaneous fistulas and all patients with stents in situ for more than 8 wk had hyperplastic tissue growth at the upper end of the stent.Stricture recurrence was observed at 4 wk follow-up after stent removal in all patients CONCLUSION:Although technically feasible,placement of a tracheobronchial SEPS is associated with a high risk of complications.Small diameter stents must be kept in place for longer than 3 mo to allow adequate time for stricture remodeling. | Rui Almeida Silva Nuno Mesquita Pedro Pimentel Nunes Elisabete Cardoso Ricardo Marcos Pinto Luís Moreira Dias | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,6: | 2 |
| 7 | Indirect printing of hierarchical patient-specific scaffolds for meniscus tissue engineering显示文摘The complex meniscus tissue plays a critical role in the knee. The high susceptibility to injury has led to an intense pursuit for better tissue engineering regenerative strategies, where scaffolds play a major role. In this study, indirect printed hierarchical multilayered sca ffolds composed by a silk fibroin (SF) upper layer and an 80/20 (w/w) ratio of SF/ionic-doped β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) bottom layer were developed. Furthermore, a comparative analysis between two types of sca ffolds pro- duced using di fferent SF concentrations, i.e., 8% (w/v) (Hi8) and 16% (w/v) (Hi16) was performed. In terms of architecture and morphology, the produced sca ffolds presented homogeneous porosity in both layers and no di fferences were observed when comparing both sca ffolds. A decrease in terms of mechanical performance of the sca ffolds was observed when SF concentration decreased from 16 to 8% (w/v). Hi16 revealed a static compressive modulus of 0.66 ± 0.05 MPa and dynamical mechanical properties ranging from 2.17 ± 0.25 to 3.19 ± 0.38 MPa. By its turn, Hi8 presented a compressive modulus of 0.27 ± 0.08 MPa and dynamical mechanical properties ranging from 1.03 ± 0.08 MPa to 1.56 ± 0.13 MPa. In vitro bioactivity studies showed formation of apatite crystals onto the surface of Hi8 and Hi16 bottom layers. Human meniscus cells (hMCs) and human primary osteoblasts were cultured separately onto the top layer (SF8 and SF16) and bottom layer (SF8/TCP and SF16/TCP) of the hierarchical sca ffolds Hi8 and Hi16, respectively. Both cell types showed good adhesion and proliferation as denoted by the live/dead staining, Alamar Blue assay and DNA quanti fication analysis. Subcutaneous implantation in mice revealed weak in flammation and sca ffold’s integrity. The hierarchical indirect printed SF sca ffolds can be promising candidate for meniscus TE sca ffolding applications due their suitable mechanical properties, good biological performance and possibility of being applied in a patient-speci fic approach. | Joao BCosta Joana Silva-Correia Sandra Pina Alain da Silva Morais Sílvia Vieira Hélder Pereira Joao Espregueira-Mendes Rui LReis Joaquim M.Oliveira | 2019 | Bio-Design and Manufacturing2019,2,4: | 2 |

| 12 | Fatigue Strength Evaluation of Resin-Injected Bolted Connections Using Statistical Analysis显示文摘在对老旧的螺栓和铆接金属桥进行修补和加固时可以使用不同的方案。由于铆接链接技术目前并不常用,连接它需要特定的设备和熟练的工人。另一种解决方案是使用焊接。但是,老旧钢材的可焊性较差。螺栓是一种非常可行的替代解决方案,并且常用于修复旧金属桥。装配螺栓的解决方案成本高昂,另一种方法是使用树脂灌注式螺栓。带有预紧力的树脂灌注式老旧螺栓连接的受力性能已经用准静态和蠕变试验进行了研究,然而,关于这些连接节点的滑移和疲劳行为的文献很少。本文概述了几位研究者的实验项目,旨在评估单侧受剪和双侧受剪的树脂灌注式螺栓连接的疲劳行为。对有预紧力的标准螺栓和有预紧力的树脂灌注式螺栓的连接节点的实验数据进行比较分析,显示后者的疲劳强度较低。但欧洲规范3(EC3)对树脂灌注式螺栓和标准螺栓的连接节点提出的疲劳强度曲线大致相同,这应得到足够的重视。此外,本研究还展示了使用黏结螺栓连接的可行性研究。最后的研究是用高强度低合金结构钢板和用于金属黏结的丙烯酸结构黏结剂进行的。针对两个实际工程案例,使用线性化边界及Castillo和Fernández-Canteli模型对疲劳实验数据进行统计分析。最终提出疲劳设计曲线,并与欧洲和北美规范中的几个设计建议进行比较。 | Jose Antonio Fonseca de Oliveira Correia Bruno Alexandre Silva Pedrosa Patricia Cordeiro Raposo Abilio Manuel Pinho De Jesus Helena Maria dos Santos Gervisio Grzegorz Stanislaw Lesiukc Carlos Alberto da Silva Rebelo Rui Artur Bartolo Calcada Luis Alberto Proenca Simoes da Silva | 2017 | Engineering2017,3,6: | 1 |
