Application and prospect of gene therapy for fundus vascular diseases / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

Fundus vascular diseases, including neovascular age-related macular degeneration(nAMD)and diabetic retinopathy(DR), are the leading causes of visual impairment worldwide. With the accelerated aging and increased incidence of diabetes, the prevalence of these two fundus diseases will continue to rise. Currently, intraocular injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(anti-VEGF)remains the first-line treatment for fundus vascular diseases, but disadvantages exist, such as frequent intraocular injections, high cost and poor compliance, thus more durable and effective therapeutic strategies need to be explored. The successful application of gene therapy in inherited retinal diseases(IRDs)provides a new idea for the treatment of fundus vascular diseases. With the ongoing of several clinical trials, gene therapy for fundus vascular diseases is expected to be employed in the clinical setting. But there still remain some concerns, including the optimal therapeutic targets selection, administration route and safety issues. This review focuses on the application and prospect of gene augmentation and gene editing-mediated anti-VEGF therapy for the treatment of nAMD and DR.

Ureaplasma urealyticum GrpE promotes mouse dendritic cell maturation and elicits Th1 immune responses / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective:To investigate the effects of Ureaplasma urealyticum GrpE ( Uu-GrpE) on the maturation of dendritic cells and the polarization of T cells. Methods:Uu-GrpE was expressed and purified, and then identified by Western blot. The cytotoxicity of Uu-GrpE to mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) was analyzed by LDH kit. After stimulating BMDCs with Uu-GrpE, the expression of costimulatory molecules, CD80, CD86 and major histocompatibility complex Ⅱ (MHCⅡ), on the surface of BMDCs was detected by flow cytometry, and ELISA was used to detect the cytokines such as IL-12p70, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6. CD4 + Na?ve T cells were isolated from mouse spleen tissues by magnetic beads. A co-culture system of BMDCs and Na?ve T cells was constructed to analyze the effects of GrpE-stimulated mature BMDCs (GrpE-BMDCs) on T cell proliferation and polarization towards Th1/Th2. Mice were immunized with GrpE-BMDCs through the tail vein, and the induced humoral and cellular immune responses were detected by ELISA and flow cytometry. Results:Uu-GrpE was successfully express and high purity BMDCs were isolated. Uu-GrpE could stimulate BMDCs to secrete cytokines such as IL-12p70, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 without having cytotoxicity. Uu-GrpE significantly increased the expression of CD80 [mean flourscence indensity (MFI): (324.00±22.11) vs (91.03±10.95), P<0.01], CD86 [MFI: (1 176.00±51.39) vs (217.00±14.93), P<0.01] and MHCⅡ [MFI: (708.70±56.32) vs (185.70±16.77), P<0.01] on BMDCs. Compared to the GrpE-BMDCs only group and GrpE (boiled)-BMDCs+ T cell group, the GrpE-BMDCs+ T cell group showed significantly increased T cell proliferation [stimulation index: (7.25±0.21) vs(6.55±0.23) and (6.09±0.35), both P<0.05], and dramatically promoted T cell secretion of IL-2 and IFN-γ [IL-2: (145.60±14.67) pg/ml vs(55.92±3.12) pg/ml and (26.05±2.40) pg/ml, P<0.05 and P<0.01; IFN-γ: (267.20±37.80) pg/ml vs(146.70±20.65) pg/ml and(27.84±6.69) pg/ml, both P<0.05]. However, no significant change was observed in the expression of Th2-type cytokines. Moreover, the adoptive transfer of GrpE-BMDCs induced a Th1-type immune response. Conclusions:Uu-GrpE could stimulate the maturation and polarization of BMDCs. Moreover, it could induce Th1 immune response as a candidate protein vaccine for Ureaplasma urealyticum.

Research progress on the mechanism of circRNA regulating radioresistance-related pathways / 中华放射医学与防护杂志

Radiotherapy is an important means to treat malignant tumors in clinical practice. However, tumor radioresistance not only seriously limits the efficiency of radiotherapy, but also leads to poor prognosis of patients, which may eventually lead to tumor metastasis and recurrence. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a new member of noncoding RNA, which is highly specific, stable and conservative. This paper reviewed with the effect of circRNA on the signal pathways related to radiotherapy resistance by analyzing the perspective of DNA damage repair pathway, EMT (epithelial mesenchymal transition) process, Wnt pathway, tumor stem cells and other pathways, and sorted out the mechanism of circRNA in tumor cell resistance to radiotherapy, which may provide valuable clues for further study of circRNA.

Objective:To observe the effect of Jinxiangdan （JXD） on NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing-3 （NLRP3）/cysteine-dependent aspartate-directed protease-1 （Caspase-1）/interleukin-1<italic>β</italic> （IL-1<italic>β</italic>） signaling pathway in myocardium of rats with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury （MIRI） and explore the protective effect and mechanism of JXD against MIRI. Method:Fifty male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group， model group， high- and low-dose JXD groups， and positive drug （Di'ao Xinxuekang） group， with 10 rats in each group. Seven days before modeling， rats in the JXD groups were separately treated with intragastric administration of 0.72 and 0.18 g·kg^-1 JXD tablets， the ones in the sham operation group and model group with the same volume of normal saline， and those in the positive drug group with 1.29 g·kg^-1 Di'ao Xinxuekang. Twelve hours after the last intragastric administration， the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery was ligated for 30 min and then re-perfused for 60 min for inducing MIRI. ST segment elevation was detected by electrocardiogram（ECG） for model evaluation. The contents of creatine kinase （CK） and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） in cardiac tissue were measured by colorimetry. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was conducted for observing myocardial histopathological changes， followed by the detection of cardiomyocyte apoptosis by DNA in situ nick end-labeling （TUNEL） assay. The protein and mRNA expression levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and IL-1<italic>β</italic> were detected by Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， respectively. Result:Compared with sham operation group， the model group exhibited obviously elevated ST segment （<italic>P</italic><0.01）， enhanced CK and LDH activities in the myocardium （<italic>P</italic><0.01）， increased apoptotic cardiomyocytes （<italic>P</italic><0.01）， and up-regulated NLRP3， Caspase-1， and IL-1<italic>β</italic> protein and mRNA expression （<italic>P</italic><0.01）. Compared with model group， JXD at both the high and low doses and Di'ao Xinxuekang significantly lowered the ST segment （<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）， diminished the CK and LDH activities in myocardial tissue （<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）， improved the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes （<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）， and down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and IL-1<italic>β</italic> in myocardial tissue （<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The ST segment of ECG in the low-dose JXD group was increased as compared with that in the Di'ao Xinxuekang group （<italic>P</italic><0.05）， while the ST segment in the high-dose JXD group was obviously elevated （<italic>P</italic><0.05）. Besides， the green fluorescence intensities in the low- and high-dose JXD groups and the Di'ao Xinxuekang group remarkably declined （<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The mRNA and protein expression levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and IL-1<italic>β</italic> in the high-dose JXD group were down-regulated （<italic>P</italic><0.05）. Conclusion:JXD alleviates MIRI possibly by lowering NLRP3 and IL-1<italic>β</italic> expression and inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Ligand binding and conformational changes of SUR1 subunit in pancreatic ATP-sensitive potassium channels

ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K) are energy sensors on the plasma membrane. By sensing the intracellular ADP/ATP ratio of β-cells, pancreatic K channels control insulin release and regulate metabolism at the whole body level. They are implicated in many metabolic disorders and diseases and are therefore important drug targets. Here, we present three structures of pancreatic K channels solved by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), at resolutions ranging from 4.1 to 4.5 Å. These structures depict the binding site of the antidiabetic drug glibenclamide, indicate how Kir6.2 (inward-rectifying potassium channel 6.2) N-terminus participates in the coupling between the peripheral SUR1 (sulfonylurea receptor 1) subunit and the central Kir6.2 channel, reveal the binding mode of activating nucleotides, and suggest the mechanism of how Mg-ADP binding on nucleotide binding domains (NBDs) drives a conformational change of the SUR1 subunit.

Objective To investigate the clinical diagnosis features of primary pulmonary lymphoma (PPL). Methods 11 cases of primary pulmonary lymphoma, confirmed by pathological examinations from January 2015 to March 2017, were studied. Most of them (10 cases) were diagnosed by endobronchial ultrasound. Results The study group consisted of 7 male (63.6％) and 4 female (36.4％) patients, aged from 35 to 72 years. 8 of 11 cases (72.7％) were more than 50 years old. The clinical symptoms consist of cough (63.6％), sputum (45.5％), breathlessness(36.4％), 2 cases were asymptomatic. The pulmonary imaging manifestation consists of four different patterns: pneumonic (72.7％);nodular or mass (45.5％); bronchovascular-lymphangitic (9.1％); milliary- hematogenous (9.1％). Air bronchograms (8 cases, 72.7％) were the common accompanying signs, typically taking the shape of withered arborization. Many cases (72.7％) were misdiagnosed, first as pneumonia or organizing pneumonia. Conclusion Primary lymphoma of the lung occurs with nonspecific clinical features, often initial misdiagnosed as pneumonia or organizing pneumonia, but it has some characteristics on radiology, such as multiple lesions, lesions accompanied with air bronchogram taking the shape of withered arborization. Final diagnosis making depended on pathological examinations by lung biopsy. The positive rate of lung biopsy by endobronchial ultrasound is also high.
