Optimization of transduction conditions of recombinant adeno-associated virus into NK92 cells / 中国药科大学学报

@#To improve the transduction efficiency of recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) in NK92 cells, the number of cells, concentration of IL-2 in the medium, and serotype and dosage of rAAV were explored to optimize cell state and viral transfection conditions.Then, zinc chloride (ZnCl2), chloroquine, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and genistein with different concentration were added separately during transfection to further improve the viral transduction efficiency.The results showed that, at cell number of 5 × 105, the expression efficiency of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) was relatively high.When the IL-2 concentration was 1 000 IU/mL, NK92 cells were most suitable for virus transfection. The transduction efficiency of different serotypes of rAAV in NK92 cells was rAAV6, rAAV2 and rAAV9 in descending order.Pretreatment of NK92 cells with genistein could significantly increase the viral transduction efficiency, while the addition of other reagents had no significant effect.Through the optimization of the above conditions, the transduction efficiency of rAAV to NK92 cells could be significantly improved, which provided evidence for functional genetic modification of NK92 cells by rAAV.

The effects of occupational noise exposure on glycated hemoglobin and prediabetes / 中国职业医学

Objective To investigate the relationship between occupational noise exposure and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, as well as prediabetes diagnosed by HbA1c. Methods A total of 1 181 workers from a cigarette factory were selected as the research subjects using a judgment sampling method. Workers were divided into control, low-level noise exposure and high-level noise exposure groups, consisting of 236, 359, and 586 individuals, respectively. The blood sample was collected for HbA1c test and occupation noise exposure intensity in workplace was detected by an area-sampling method. Results There were no statistical significant differences in HbA1c levels and prediabetes prevalence among the three groups of workers (all P>0.05). After adjusting for potential confounding factors such as years of service, gender, smoking, pack-years of smoking, alcohol consumption, and body mass index, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the high-level noise exposure group had higher HbA1c level than the control group (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis results showed that the high-level noise exposure group had higher risk of prediabetes compared with the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Occupational noise exposure could be a risk factor for the increased HbA1c levels and prediabetes incidence among the occupational population. More attention should be paid to the effects of occupational noise exposure on the HbA1c level in occupational health surveillance.

Problems and Suggestions in the Registration and Approval of Chemical Preparations in Medical Institutions of Guangdong Province / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for ensuring clinical drug safety and promoting the development of characteristic chemical preparations in medical institutions. METHODS： From three aspects such as registration declaration of new preparations， supplementary application declaration and re-registration declaration， the problems found during the technical review of registration of chemical preparation in medical institutions of Guangdong province have been summed up， the causes of above problems also have been analyzed， and the relevant suggestions have been given at the same time. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： There were deficiencies in the registration declaration of new preparations， such as insufficient basis for the title， the lack of key process parameters in the study of preparation process and the failure of stability test conditions to meet the requirements of the Pharmacopoeia， etc. There were deficiencies in the supplementary application declaration， such as the unreasonable formulation of drug， the interaction between the drugs packing material and the drug， and unreasonable setting of storage conditions. There were deficiencies in the re-registration declaration， such as the supply of existing drugs on the market， the lack of production conditions for the formulation unit， the inability to purchase the original excipient materials， and the incomplete attention items. The main reasons were that the lack of technical guidelines for the research of chemical preparations， imperfection of the Standards for the Quality Management of Pharmaceutical Preparation in Medical Institutions and authorized preparation of chemical agents not allowed in Measures for the Registration and Administration of Pharmaceutical Preparation in Medical Institutions， and some kinds of chemical preparations could not adapt to the development of the new situation. The solutions are to improve the regulations of medicinal preparation in medical institutions and develop chemical preparations selectively based on safety and efficiency. In the future， the problems can be solved by formulating the technical guidelines for the research of chemical preparations in medical institutions， refining the rules for the retention of samples in finished products， increasing the requirements for continuous stability inspections， allowing authorized chemical preparations to be commissioned and prepared， phasing out the chemical preparations that do not adapt to the new situation， and developing valuable chemical preparations， to provide safe and effective chemical preparations for clinical use.

Methods 180 patients(180 eyes)with senile cataract were included between,2001 and 2005.The patients were divided into three group (n = 60 each),based on the admition time. Implantion of ReSTOR-SN60D3 is multifocal aspherical intraocular lens(SN60D3),implantion of SN60AT lens is single spheri-cal intraocular lens (SN60AT),and implantion of SN60WF lens is single aspherical intraocular lens (SN60WF group). Three months after operation,the refractive state,focus depth,modulation transfer function(MTF),and higher-order aberrations were measured ,and the visual quality were investigated. Results There was no signifi-cant difference in vision in three groups before operation(P > 0.05). After operation,the UCNVA of SN60D3 group was significantly better than the SN60AT group and SN60WF group(P < 0.05). Under 3 mm pupil diame-ter,spherical aberration of SN60D3 group and SN60WF Z(4,0)were less than SN60AT group(P < 0.05), SN60D3 group and SN60WF only under 5 CPD spatial frequency MTF(HOA)value was superior to the SN60AT group(P<0.05);The score of near vision,reliance on vision correction and limitation of operation of patients in SN60D3 group were higher than other two groups(P<0.05). Visual clarity and day vision fluctuations of patients in SN60D3 group is better than single focal sphere group(P<0.05). Conclusion In multifocal aspherical intra-ocular lens,general spherical aberrations and higher-order aberrations is smaller,effect of naked near vision is bet-ter and the rest of the vision is stable ,which can bring good visual quality for cataract patients after operation.

Discussion on Relevant Issues of Medical Institution Preparation Registration Management Approach( Trial) / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving registration regulation of medical institution preparation and pro-moting the development of it. METHODS:According to sorting out and summarizing the Medical Institution Preparation Registra-tion Management Approach(trail)contents,for its shortcomings in terms of medical institution preparation definitions,related im-provement suggestions were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:The Medical Institution Preparation Registration Manage-ment Approach(trail)has promulgated for 12 years from 2005 till now,existing shortcomings were that the definition of medical institution preparations was too wide,requirement on data of application and registration was less rigorous,regulation of clinical re-search was vague,clinical application re-evaluation was inadequate,disapproved case was lacked. In view of the above shortcom-ings,it is suggested to narrow the definition of medical institution preparations,modify the requirement on data of application and registration specify the regulation of clinical research,add monitoring period for the new preparation and update the disapproved case,so as to improve the registration regulation of medical institution preparations and promote the development of preparations in medical institutions.

The relationship between RSUME and small ubiquitin related modifiers of HIF-1α with invasive pituitary adenomas / 中国神经精神疾病杂志

Objective AIM:To study whether the RWD containing sumoylation enhancer (RSUME) enhanced small ubiquitin related modifiers (SUMO) to competitively inhibit Ubiquitin B (UBB)-mediated degradation of hypoxia hypoxia-inducible factor 1α.(HIF-1α) and the invasive pituitary adenomas.Methods The expression of protein and mRNA levels of RSUME,SUMO-1,UBB and HIF-1α were detected by using immunohistochemistry,western blot and qPCR in 38 cases of non-invasive pituitary adenoma,38 cases of invasive pituitary adenomas and 10 cases of normal pituitary capsule.The expression of SUMO-1 was analyzed in different types of pituitary adenomas.Results The protein,and mRNA levels of RSUME,SUMO-HIF-1αwere significantly higher in the invasive pituitary adenomas than in the non-invasive pituitary adenomas and normal pituitary capsule (P＜0.01).The protein and mRNA levels of RSUME,SUMO-HIF-1αwas higher in non-invasive pituitary adenomas than in normal pituitary capsule(P＜0.01).However,the protein levels of UBB-HIF-1α were significantly lower in the invasive pituitary adenomas than in the non-invasive pituitary adenomas and normal pituitary capsule (P＜0.01).The protein of UBB-HIF-1α were lower in non-invasive pituitary adenomas than in normal pituitary capsule (P＜0.01).The expression levels of SUMO were not significantly different among different types of pituitary adenomas (P＞0.05).Conclusion RSUM may increase pituitary adenomas angiogenesis and promote tumor invasion through enhancement of SUMO of HIF-1α which competitively inhibits ubiquitination of HIF-1 α.

Retrospective analysis of outcomes of selectively or spontaneously reduced multiple pregnancies out of 6917 in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer pregnancy cycles / 中华妇产科杂志

Objective To analyze the effects of fetal reduction in early pregnancy on obstetric and neonatal outcomes of spontaneously or selectively reduced multiple pregnancies produced by in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Methods Retrospective study of 6917 clinical pregnancies from IVF-ET cycles, including 754 multiple pregnancies divided into two groups according to the remaining fetus number: reduced singleton group (n=599) and reduced twin group (n=155); and maternal and neonatal outcomes of two groups were compared to primary singleton group (n=3589) and primary twin group (n=2574). Results The rate of pregnancy complication [9.85%(59/599) versus 6.21%(223/3589)], preterm birth [19.37%(116/599) versus 10.73%(385/3589)], low birth weight [9.71%(56/577) versus 4.57%(152/3324)], perinatal death [0.69%(4/577) versus 0.12%(4/3324)] and malformation [2.95%(17/577) versus 1.02%(34/3324)] in reduced singleton group were significantly higher than those in primary singleton group (all P0.05). In reduced singleton group, birth defect rate was 2.95%, which was higher than those of the other three groups (P<0.05), in this group spontaneous pregnancy reduction accounted for 89.3%(535/599). Conclusions (1) The rate of pregnancy complication, preterm birth, low birth weight, perinatal death and malformation in reduced singleton group are still higher than primary singletons, suggesting embryo reduction only is a compensated method in multiple pregnancies. Limiting the number of embryos transferred is the essential solution. (2) The rate of birth defect in spontaneous pregnancy reduction group is higher, so prenatal examination should be reinforced in this group.

OBJECTIVE To study the genetic polymorphisms of Penta E locus in Fujian Han population. METHODS Polymorphisms of the Penta E locus in 851 unrelated individuals were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction-short tandem repeat (PCR-STR). The mutation rate of rare alleles was analyzed in 494 paternity identification cases (in a total of 674 meiosis). RESULTS Twenty-six alleles were identified for the Penta E locus, with their frequencies ranging from 0.0006 to 0.1528. There were 7 rare alleles, among which Penta E-28.4 ([AAAGA]29) was identified for the first time. Genetic parameters of the Penta E locus in Fujian Han population were obtained, including PIC= 0.91, PE= 0.817, PD= 0.986, and mutation rate= 0.0015. CONCLUSION The Penta E locus is highly polymorphic and has a low mutation rate in Fujian Han population. It also has a good prospect in genetics applications. DNA sequencing is a good method for identifying rare alleles.

Research Progress in molecular mechanisms between RSUME and invasive pituitary adenoma / 中国肿瘤临床

Pituitary adenoma, a benign intracranial tumor, is the third most common brain tumor, second only to glioma and me-ningioma. Pituitary adenoma has been defined as a benign tumor, but some pituitary adenomas can invade the surrounding tissue. This tumor is difficult to resect and can easily recur after surgery. RWD-containing sumoylation enhancer (RSUME) can stabilize the activity of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and inhibitor kappaB by the small ubiquitin-related modifiers. This phenomenon indicates the impor-tance of RSUME in pituitary adenoma because it promotes the invasiveness of the tumor. However, the correlation between RSUME and the invasion of pituitary adenoma remains unclear. In this study, the roles of RSUME on HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway and IκB/NF-κB compomers in the invasiveness of pituitary adenoma were reviewed.
