Clinical observation of venetoclax-based treatment regimens for acute myeloid leukemia / 白血病·淋巴瘤

Objective:To investigate clinical efficacy and safety of venetoclax (VEN)-based regimens in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:The clinical data of 41 AML patients treated with venetoclax-based regimens from January 2021 to December 2021 in Ruijin Hospital North of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment regimens included VEN+demethylating drugs ± gene mutation inhibitors or VEN+chemotherapy with a median number of 2 courses (1- 5 courses).Results:The median age of all patients was 60 years (18-73 years), and there were 24 males and 17 females. After 1 course of VEN-based therapy, 22 (53.7%) patients achieved complete remission (CR) or morphological complete remission without complete blood count recovery (CRi), including 5 patients achieving minimal residual disease (MRD) negative. After 2 courses of treatment, of 17 patients available for efficacy evaluation, 7 patients achieved MRD negative. Among 20 relapsed/refractory AML patients, 9 cases achieved CR/CRi after 1 course of treatment, of which 1 patient had MRD negative. Among 21 patients initially treated and re-treated, 13 cases achieved CR/CRi and 1 case achieved partial remission after 1 course of treatment, of which 4 cases had MRD negative.Conclusions:VEN-based treatment regimens for AML have a high remission rate and tolerable adverse effects.

Subcutaneous Streptococcus dysgalactiae GAPDH vaccine in mice induces a proficient innate immune response

Background@#Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) on the surface of Streptococcus dysgalactiae, coded with gapC, is a glycolytic enzyme that was reported to be a moonlighting protein and virulence factor. @*Objective@#This study assessed GAPDH as a potential immunization candidate protein to prevent streptococcus infections. @*Methods@#Mice were vaccinated subcutaneously with recombinant GAPDH and challenged with S. dysgalactiae in vivo. They were then evaluated using histological methods. rGAPDH of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) was evaluated using immunoblotting, reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay methods. @*Results@#Vaccination with rGAPDH improved the survival rates and decreased the bacterial burdens in the mammary glands compared to the control group. The mechanism by which rGAPDH vaccination protects against S. dysgalactiae was investigated. In vitro experiments showed that rGAPDH boosted the generation of interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α. Treatment of BMDCs with TAK-242, a toll-like receptor 4 inhibitor, or C29, a toll-like receptor 2 inhibitor, reduced cytokines substantially, suggesting that rGAPDH may be a potential ligand for both TLR2 and TLR4. Subsequent investigations showed that rGAPDH may activate the phosphorylation of MAPKs and nuclear factor-κB. @*Conclusions@#GAPDH is a promising immunization candidate protein for targeting virulence and enhancing immune-mediated protection. Further investigations are warranted to understand the mechanisms underlying the activation of BMDCs by rGAPDH in a TLR2- and TLR4-dependent manner and the regulation of inflammatory cytokines contributing to mastitis pathogenesis.

Objective:To grasp the distribution of fine antigenic epitope profiles of nucleoprotein (NP) and glycoprotein (GP) fragments of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) and to clarify the value of dominant antigenic epitopes in laboratory testing of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF).Methods:In a minimal synthetic short peptide consisting of 8 amino acids was segmentally expressed by CCHFV YL04057 strain using a modified bio-peptide synthesis method from 2014 to 2021 in the laboratory of Xinjiang University, College of Life Sciences. Using CCHFV polyclonal antibody or monoclonal antibody 14B7 (IgM) or CCHFV-positive sheep serum as antibodies, the minimal antigenic epitopes (BCEs) with antigenic activity on NP and GP fragments were identified by immunoblotting, and the obtained BCEs with sequence polymorphism were spatially clustered with CCHFV from different regions using the neighbor-joining method to determine the combination mode of BCEs with geographical correlation of regional distribution, to explore its application in establishing serological diagnosis. A prokaryotic expression plasmid (pET-32a), an E. coli expression plasmid (pGEX-KG) and a prokaryotic expression plasmid with an incomplete glutathione (GST188) tag (pXXGST-ST-1) were used to construct and express six dominant antigenic epitopes of different peptide lengths on NP fragments, and an indirect Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was established. CCHF sheep serum identified by immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was used as a control, and the specificity, sensitivity and overall compliance of the recombinant proteins with different peptide lengths of antigenic epitopes with IFA assay results were statistically analyzed. Results:CCHFV, NP and GP fragments had a total of 30 antigenically active BCEs, among which the core intermediate fragment NP2 (aa 170 th-305 th), which had a concentration of antigenic epitopes in the NP fragment, has 6 BCEs, and the NP1 (aa 1 st-200 th) and NP3 (aa 286 th-482 nd) at both ends have 9 BCEs; the Gc (aa 1 st-558 th) and Gn (aa 533 th-708 th) fragments of the GP fragment have 14 BCEs and a long antigenic peptide (AP) containing 15 amino acids, and the amino acid sequence homology of the NP fragment BCEs was 97.1% and that of the GP fragment BCEs was 89.1%. There was a significant difference ( P=0.0281, P<0.05). Among the 9 BCEs with sequence polymorphism in the GP fragment, 6 combined BCEs from GnEc1, GnE2, GnE4, GcE3, GcE6 and GcAP-4 (Ap) could cluster 15 CCHFV strains from different regions of the world into 5 geographical taxa, AsiaⅠ, AsiaⅡ, AficaⅠ, AficaⅡ and Europe. The constructs expressing PET-32a-NP (full length), PGEX-KG-NP2 (aa 170 th-305 th), pGEX-KG-NP2-1 (aa 235 th-275 th), PGEX-KG-NP2-1-1 (aa 237 th-256 th), pXXGST-1-NP2-1-2 (aa 250 th-265 th) and PGEX KG-NP2-1-3 (aa 260 th-276 th), six recombinant proteins CCHFV NP rabbit polyclonal antiserum (pAb) Western Blotting reaction positive, 33 sheep sera tested by IFA XHF as a reference, the sensitivity of the assay established by indirect ELISA using the recombinant proteins constructed from two fragments of NP2 and NP2-1 as antigens. The sensitivity, specificity and overall compliance were the best, with 73.4% (11/15) and 66.7% (10/15) for sensitivity, 100% (18/18) and 94.4% (17/18) for specificity, and 87.9% (29/33) and 81.8% (27/33) for overall compliance. Conclusion:CCHFV NP and GP are distributed with a high number of BCEs with antigenic immunoreactivity, among which the dominant antigenic epitopes are of high value in the laboratory serological diagnosis of CCHF.

The imaging features demonstrate two typical findings: dilated(13 cases) and slim(7 cases) demonstrations. While for right lymphatic duct, the MR result included three types: dilated(6 cases), slim(4 cases) and no sign of manifestations(2 cases). In surgery, the thoracic duct in cervical segment demonstrated abnormal structures, including capsulated by fibrous tissues in peripheral area(30 sides), surrounded by internal jugular vein sheath(11 sides), external pressed by venae cervicalis transversa(5 sides) and lymphatic trunk dysplasia(2 sides).@*Conclusions@#MR thoracic duct and right lymphatic duct imaging can be used as an effective diagnostic imaging method for primary facial lymphedema, and the structural anomaly of the upper cervical catheter and the right lymphatic catheter may be one of the pathogenic factors of primary facial lymphedema.

Evaluation and comparison of prognostic value of serum free light chain ratio/difference in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma / 中华血液学杂志

Objective@#To evaluate the prognostic value of serum free light chain ratio (rFLC) and difference (dFLC) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) .@*Methods@#Clinical data of 479 cases of newly diagnosed MM patients with FLC test records referred to our hospital from January 2012 to March 2016 were collected. rFLC preferred cut-off values were selected as≤14.828,14.828-364.597, ≥364.597 according to the literatures. The dFLC was divided into ≤112.85,112.85-2891.83, ≥2891.83 mg/L three groups. The rFLC and dFLC values among the death, the non-death, the progress and the non-progress groups were compared by t test. The correlation analysis showed that the rFLC and dFLC values were related to the death or progression of the disease. Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between each factor and death or progression. Univariate survival analysis (PFS) and total survival (OS) were performed using Kaplan-Meier. Single-variable and multivariate prognostic analysis were performed using Cox model.@*Results@#The cutoff values of rFLC less than 14.828 or dFLC less than or equal to 112.85 mg/L impacted most significant on OS and PFS of the patients (P<0.05) . Different rFLC cut-off values between two groups showed that when rFLC=14.828, OS was significantly better than the other two groups (NR vs 61 & 47 months, P=0.019) ; different dFLC cut-off values between two groups disclosed that PFS and OS were statistically significant when dFLC less than or equal to 112.85 mg/L compared with the other two groups (P<0.05) . The 4-year PFS/OS rates in the initial dFLC≤112.85 mg/L and rFLC≤14.828 groups was significantly higher than of the other two groups.@*Conclusion@#Different cutoff levels of rFLC and dFLC might have obviously effects on the prognoses of patients with newly diagnosed MM. The difference of survival prognosis would be more pronounced when rFLC≤14.828 or dFLC≤112.85 mg/L with lower risk of death and lower risk ratio, which might be ideal cutoff value for determining the prognosis of these patients.

The data about their eyesight and refractive status was analyzed by using SPSS 11.5.@*Results@#The total detection rate of poor eyesight was 69.99% in four schools, and total rate of myopia was 57.97%. 1 610 eyes were of low myopia (32.25%), 1 054 eyes were of moderate myopia (21.11%) and 231 eyes were of high myopia (4.61%). The order of refractive status composition in different periods was as follows: in primary school, it was emmetropia (35.64%)> low myopia (28.76%)> hyperopia (15.04%)> moderate myopia (10.45%); and in junior middle school, low myopia (38.62%) > moderate myopia (29.07%) > emmetropia (12.43%); in senior middle school, moderate myopia (37.31%) > low myopia (33.95%)> high myopia (11.34%), the emmetropia in senior middle school was detected of only 5.29%. Low myopia increased rapidly from grade 1 (10.54%) to grade 3 (30.08%) in primary schools, moderate myopia increased rapidly from grade 4 to grade 6 (14.22%, 17.94%, 25.00%) in primary schools, and high myopia increased rapidly from grade 2 (7.11%) in junior middle school to grade 2 (13.47%) in senior middle school. The average diopter was (-1.69±2.42)D. The average diopter of primary school was (-0.76±1.87)D, junior middle school was (-2.41±2.40)D, senior middle school was (-3.09±2.62)D, the difference was significant (F=541.40, P<0.01). The average diopter of each grade decreased year by year with significant difference (F=139.97, P<0.01). The annual difference was between - 0.3 D and - 0.7 D.@*Conclusion@#The prevention and control of myopia should pay special attention to the primary school stage. The earlier the intervention, the more likely it is to prevent myopia from developing into high myopia.

Except for rats in Con group,all rats were injected with 40%CCl4 sub-cutaneously twice a week for 8 weeks to establish hepatic fibrosis ,and those in OCT-treatment groups were injected at different doses of OCT twice a day at the same time. Plasma ALT and AST was assayed;the isolated livers were evaluated for histopathological changes by HE staining and Masson staining;hepatic histological grading and stag-ing were assessed by Ishak scoring system;Bcl-2,Bax,GRP78 and CHOP protein expression levels were deter-mined by Western blot. Results Compared with those in Con group ,the degrees of inflammatory cell infiltration and fibers,hepatic histological grading and staging,plasma ALT,AST activities and Bax,GRP78,CHOP protein levels were significantly increased in Mod and OCT-treatment groups ,but Bcl-2 protein level was significantly de-creased at the same time(P0.05). Conclusions OCT can reduce the level of liver injury in rats with hepatic fibrosis ,thus the mechanism may be related to relieving the ERS reaction in liver.

Cytogenetic abnormalities and prognosis of 532 patients with multiple myeloma / 中华血液学杂志

Objective@#To explore the effect of 6 common cytogenetic abnormalities on the prognosis of multiple myeloma (MM).@*Methods@#Myeloma cells from a cohort of 532 newly-diagnosed MM patients enrolled were enriched by CD138 immunomagnetic beads, then detected 13q-, 17p-, 1q+, t (4;14), t (11;14) and t (14;16) and other common genetic abnormalities in MM by using interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique to compare the influence of different genetic abnormalities on their prognoses.@*Results@#The rate of cytogenetic abnormalities was 78.20% (416/532) in 532 patients, of which 13q-accounted for 42.29% (225/532), 17p-16.35% (87/532), 1q+ 53.38% (284/532), t (4;14) 25.94% (138/532), t (11;14) 21.62% (115/532), t (14;16) 2.07% (11/532). Six kinds of cytogenetic abnormalities were analyzed, 13q- and 17p-, 1q+, t (4; 14), t (14;16) were all correlated (P <0.05). The univariate analysis indicated that 13q-, 1q+, t (4;14) and t (14;16) had a significant effect on progression-free survival (PFS), 13q-, 17p-, t (4;14) and t (14;16) had a marked influence on overall survival (OS). The multivariate analysis showed that 1q+, t (4;14) and t (14;16) were independent adverse factors of PFS, 17p-, t (4;14) and t (14;16) were independent unfavorable factors of OS. According to the independent prognosis factors number-based groups, the median PFS with 0, 1, 2, 3 independent prognosis factors of patients were 30.9, 28.4, 18.7 and 17.6 months (P =0.035) respectively, and the median OS were 54.4, 46.1, 38.0 and 21.2 months (P =0.004) respectively.@*Conclusion@#1q+, 17p-, t (4;14) and t (14;16) were independent prognostic factors affecting the survival of MM patients. 13q-is often accompanied by 17p-, 1q + and (or) t (4;14) , simply 13q- was not an independent prognostic factor; the more number of independent prognostic factors, the worse the prognosis of patients.

Quality control of human chorionic gonadotrophin subunit dissociation / 药学学报

Human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), a glycohormone widely used in treatment of infertility, is a heterodimer composed of an alpha-and a beta-subunit. The heterodimer could be dissociated during production and storage with an impact on its bioactivity. A CE-SDS method for quantitative analysis of hCG subunit dissociation was established in this study by optimization of a variety of method conditions including sample preparation buffer compositions, incubation temperature, separation voltage, and capillary temperature. This method was validated for good sensitivity, linearity, precision, and accuracy for both α-and β-subunit. CE-SDS also showed much better precision and accuracy than SDS-PAGE. The method was successfully used in both recombinant hCG (r-hCG) produced by cell culture and hCG (u-hCG) derived from urine. The CE-SDS method was used in the study of hCG development and stability. Therefore, it is an useful tool for the quality control of hCG.

Axl-targeting drugs in tumor therapy: Research advances / 国际药学研究杂志

Axl belongs to the family of receptor tyrosine kinase. Axl and its ligand Gas6 are aberrantly over-expressed in numerous human cancers. The binding of Gas6 and Axl could activate multiple signaling pathways, which take part in the development and progression of cancer, including cell survival, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. In recent years, Axl and Gas6 have been considered as a promising novel target for cancer therapeutics. Several Axl inhibitors, including small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors and anti-Axl monoclonal antibodies are currently under research. In this paper, we review the development of Axl-targeting drugs in tumor therapy.
