The predictive value of immune monitoring with circulating CD8

T lymphocytes for treatment response to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors has not been explored in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), prompting us to investigate whether dynamic changes in PD-1

CD8

T lymphocytes have predictive value for durable clinical benefit (DCB) and survival after PD-1 blockade.

Patients with recurrent and/or metastatic NSCLC treated with PD-1 inhibitors were enrolled (discovery cohort; n=94). Peripheral blood was obtained immediately before and after one cycle of treatment with PD-1 blockade. Phenotyping of circulating CD8

T lymphocytes was conducted using multi-colour flow cytometry. Predictive values of dynamic changes in circulating PD-1

CD8

T lymphocytes during the first cycle were validated in an independent cohort (validation cohort; n=54) of a prospective trial with a PD-1 inhibitor (NCT03486119).

Circulating PD-1

CD8

T lymphocytes were enriched with effector/memory populations with elevated expression of activation- and exhaustion-related markers. Reduction in the frequency of PD-1

cells among CD8

T lymphocytes after one cycle of treatment was associated with a higher probability of DCB and superior survival outcomes in the discovery cohort. Similar results were obtained in the analysis of tumour antigen NY-ESO-1-specific CD8

T lymphocytes and the validation cohort. Mechanistically, PD-1 molecule expression on CD8

T lymphocytes suppresses the effector functions of tumour antigen-specific CD8

T lymphocytes.

Dynamic changes in circulating PD-1

CD8

T lymphocytes predict clinical, and survival benefit from PD-1 blockade treatment in NSCLC, providing a useful tool to identify patient subgroups who will optimally benefit from PD-1 inhibitors.

Stability of the core is associated with lower extremity functioning. Consequently, impaired core stability might play a role in developing non-contact acute lower extremity sports injuries. The objective was to investigate components of core stability as potential risk factors for acute lower extremity injuries.

A cohort study was set up with a follow-up and injury registration period of 1.5 years.

142 male and female physical education students were included.

Measures of isometric hip and core muscular strength, endurance, proprioception and neuromuscular control of the core, and postural control were taken at the start of the study. Sports-related injury occurrence was registered during follow-up.

27 (19%) injuries of interest occurred during follow-up. After multivariate model building, a significant predictive effect was found for side-to-side hip abduction strength asymmetry (p=.007). The hazard of developing an acute lower extremity injury increased with 6.2% with a 1 unit increase in side-to-side strength imbalance, regardless of gender.

Hip abduction strength imbalance was determined as a risk factor for the development of non-contact, acute lower extremity injuries. Normalizing hip strength imbalances might be beneficial for injury prevention. However, further research is needed to support this claim.

Six compounds (mangiferin, isorhamnetin, luteolin, rosmarinic acid, 6-methylcoumarin, and cyanidin-3-glucoside) were further analyzed in a PhIP-producing chemical model to identify the dominant inhibitor. Its inhibitory mechanism was investigated by assessing the contribution of antioxidation and scavenging of key PhIP precursor/intermediate. No significant correlation was observed between PhIP inhibition rates and antioxidant activities. Further evaluation of the novel potent inhibitor mangiferin revealed a highly significant correlation between its dose-dependent inhibition of PhIP formation and phenylacetaldehyde scavenging. Finally, the proposed mechanism was corroborated through organic synthesis and structural elucidation of the mangiferin-phenylacetaldehyde adduct. This study has identified a potent novel inhibitor of the most abundant HA in heat-processed food and characterized its action mechanism. These findings may provide insight for future studies on mitigation of dietary exposure to toxic Maillard products by polyphenolic phytochemicals.It is generally proposed that tea cultivars with larger leaves contain more linalool, an important tea aroma contributor, than ones with smaller leaves. The objective of this study was to confirm the trait and explore the involved reason. Investigation on ten tea cultivars with different leaf areas demonstrated a significant positive correlation between linalool content and leaf area (R2 = 0.739, p = 0.010). Analysis of metabolite and gene expression level showed that the transform ability of linalool into linalool oxides was the key factor. Feeding experiments that supplied tea leaves of different leaf areas with [2H3]linalool under different light conditions revealed that the larger tea leaves receive more light and are less capable of transformation of linalool to linalool oxides, thus leading to linalool accumulation. This information will advance understanding of the variation of linalool content in tea varieties and will provide assistance in breeding and screening of high-linalool tea cultivars.The development of sensitive method for analysis ofpesticide residue is of great significance to ensure food safety and promote globalization of food trade. An original method was proposed for analysis of phenoxy carboxylic acids (PCAs) pesticide in plant-derived food. To concentrate trace PCAs, the TAPT-DHTA-COF was fabricated by a facile room-temperature method and utilized as the solid phase extraction cartridge packing. The TAPT-DHTA-COF exhibited excellent adsorption capacity and recyclability towards PCAs. Theoretical simulation indicated that the adsorption of PCAs onto the TAPT-DHTA-COF was driven by hydrogen bond, halogen bond and π-π interaction. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry for detection, good linearity ranged from 0.10 to 40 ng·g-1 and low limits of detection varied from 0.007 to 0.030 ng·g-1 were achieved for PCAs in rice, apple and greengrocery. The recoveries of PCAs from the spiked samples ranged from 81.2% to 107%. The reliability was verified by the accurate determination of certified reference materials.
