ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand the association between waist circumference with psychological sub health among middle school students in Xinjiang, and to provide evidence for the management of waist circumference and effective prevention of mental health problems.@*Methods@#By using the stratified cluster sampling, 6 191 middle school students aged 13-15 in Urumqi, Karamay, Yining, and Kashgar of Xinjiang were surveyed on demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference, and psychological sub health symptoms. Chi square test, one way ANOVA, and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the association between waist circumference and mental sub health.@*Results@#The detection rate of psychological subhealth among secondary school students in Xinjiang was 21.4%. The detection rates of emotional problems, behavioral problems, and social adjustment difficulties were 28.4 %, 28.1%, and 17.7%, respectively. Significant differences in the detection rate of emotional problems, social adjustment difficulties, and psychological sub health scores were observed among students with different waist circumference levels ( F= 4.03 , 10.90 , 5.81, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that secondary school students with high waist circumference had a higher risk of social adjustment difficulties ( OR=1.45, 95%CI =1.20-1.75) and psychological sub health problems ( OR=1.46, 95%CI =1.22-1.74) compared to those with normal waist circumference ( P <0.01).@*Conclusion@#Psychological sub health problems of middle school students in Xinjiang are prominent, and the waist circumference is positively related to the psychological sub health problems. Schools should pay attention to the mental health education of middle school students, ensure reasonable diet, sleep and living habits, and promote their physical and mental health development.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the non-enterovirus A71 (non-EVA71) and non-coxsackievirus A16 (non-CVA16) enteroviruses causing hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Kunming and Qujing of Yunnan Province in 2021 by sequencing the VP4/VP2 and VP1 genes and to analyze the phylogenetic characteristics of the VP1 gene of CVA2, aiming to provide reference for the prevention and control of CVA2.Methods:The samples were made and extracted strictly according to the Laboratory Manual for Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018 Edition). VP4/VP2 junction regions were firstly amplified and sequenced by MD91/OL68-1 primers. These sequences were firstly edited and then "blasted" on the GenBank to determine the virus serotype. To analyze the phylogenetic characteristics of CVA2, the entire VP1 gene sequences were amplified in two segments using enterovirus species A primers. Virus serotype was again confirmed online by "Enterovirus Genotyping Tool Version 0.1". The sequences of the reference virus genotypes/sub-genotypes were downloaded according to the reference. The phylogenetic trees were constructed by Mega5.2 software and the genetic characteristics were analyzed.Results:A total of 749 non-EVA71 and non-CVA16 enteroviruses were detected in the two areas in 2021. Group A enteroviruses were the main pathogens, with CVA16 as the predominant virus, and a small number of group B enteroviruses were reported. Only five strains of CVA2 were detected with a detection rate of 0.67% (5/749), indicating that CVA2 was a rare pathogen for HFMD in the two areas. The sequencing and serotyping results were consistent using the two genomic regions of VP4/VP2 junction region and VP1 region. Phylogenetic analysis showed that three Kunming strains belonged to genotype A, while two Qujing strains belonged to genotype D.Conclusions:The detection rate of CVA2 in Kunming and Qujing was 0.67% in 2021. CVA2 was a rare pathogen for HFMD in the two regions. Phylogenetic analysis showed genotypes A and D spread in Kunming and Qujing, respectively, but had not caused epidemics. To our knowledge, this was the first report of genotype A of CVA2 in China. Strengthening the laboratory surveillance especially molecular epidemiological surveillance is valuable for the monitor and analysis of transmission source for CVA2.
ABSTRACT
Cryptogenic stroke (CS) is a type of stroke that can not find the exact cause after using the standard clinical examination procedure of stroke. In recent years, many studies have shown that patent foramen ovale (PFO) is closely associated with CS, and its main pathogenesis is paradoxical embolism. In clinical practice, ultrasound is often used for PFO screening. In the context of PFO, the secondary prevention of CS includes drug therapy and PFO closure, but the choice of treatment is still controversial. Screening and evaluation of possible PFO will help to develop secondary prevention strategies for patients with CS, especially those who can benefit from PFO closure.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 38 patients with HL who underwent ASCT. Kaplan-Meier and Cox methods were used to analyze the curative effect and prognostic factors after transplantation. Results All 38 transplanted patients obtained hematopoietic reconstitution. The CR rates before and after transplantation were 55.3% and 81.6%, respectively, and the 5-year PFS and OS were 76.1% and 79.0%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that B symptoms, IPS score, pre-transplant remission status, extranodal invasion, and pretreatment regimen were the factors affecting the prognosis of ASCT in patients with HL. Multivariate analysis showed that B symptom was an independent risk factor affecting 5-year PFS. Conclusion ASCT is effective in the treatment of high-risk, relapsed, and refractory patients with HL. B symptom is an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of transplantation.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Mongolian medicine Sanzisan ，and to evaluate its internal quality by chemical pattern recognition technique comprehensively. METHODS HPLC method was used. Using geniposide as reference，HPLC fingerprints of 15 batches of Sanzisan were drawn with Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatogram Fingerprint（2012 edition）. Similarity evaluation and common peaks identification were conducted. Combined with cluster analysis （CA），principal component analysis （PCA），and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA），the quality of 15 batches of Sanzisan was evaluated ，and the differential markers that affected its quality were screened. RESULTS There were 29 common peaks in 15 batches of Sanzisan ，and the similarity was no less than 0.952，indicating that the chemical composition of the 15 batches of Sanzisan had good consistency. A total of 13 common peaks were identified ，which were chebulic acid ，gallic acid，punicalin，punicalagin A ，punicalagin B ，jasminoside B ，caffeic acid ，corilagin，geniposide，chebulagic acid ，1，2，3，4，6- O-galloylglucose，chebulinic acid ，ellagic acid. Both CA and PCA could divide 15 batches of Sanzisan into four categories ，and the classification results were consistent ，indicating that the quality of 15 batches of Sanzisan had certain differences. Fourteen differential markers （chebulic acid ，gallic acid ，ellagic acid ，etc）that lead to the quality difference between batches were screened out by OPLS-DA. CONCLUSIONS Established HPLC fingerprint analysis method is simple and stable. Combined with chemical pattern recognition analysis ，it can be used for the quality control of Sanzisan.
ABSTRACT
@#As a structural barrier between the brain and the systemic circulation, the blood-brain barrier prevents macromolecules and most small-molecule drugs from entering the brain, which make it difficuct to treat central diseases.Various solute carriers such as glucose transporters and amino acid transporters which can transport various nutrients into the brain, are highly expressed on the blood-brain barrier.The ligand corresponding to the transporter is modified on the nano-drug carrier, and the drug is carried across the blood-brain barrier through transporter-mediated transport, which can achieve high-efficiency delivery of drugs to the brain and improve the diagnostic sensitivity and therapeutic effect of central diseases.In this paper, we review different types of solute carriers to mediate nanoformulations such as liposomes, metal nanoparticles, polymer micelles and dendrimers across the blood-brain barrier for the treatment of brain diseases and discuss the opportunities and challenges of this strategy in future applications.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To compare and study the characteristics of blood donors with and without adverse reactions to apheresis platelet donation(ARAPD), and to study the influencing factors of blood donors participating in blood donation again, so as to provide basis for putting forward scientific and reasonable countermeasures and retaining blood donors to the greatest extent. 【Methods】 157 679 platelet donors from Tianjin Blood Center from December 26, 2015 to December 25, 2020 were selected and divided into ARAPD group(n=168) and non-ARAPD group (n=157 511). Such characteristics as sex, age, height, weight, blood type, educational background, first-time donation or not, platelet count, hematocrit, phlebotomy time, circulating blood volume and anticoagulant dosage of the two groups were analyzed. Chi-square test was used to identify the high-risk population with poor blood donation response. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to study the influencing factors of blood donors returning. 【Results】 The age, height and weight of ARAPD group were lower than those of the non-ARAPD group, and the proportion of first-time blood donors, the proportion of women and phlebotomy time were higher than those of non-ARAPD group. There was little difference between the two groups in circulating blood volume, anticoagulant dosage, pre- and post-donation platelet count and hematocrit. Logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of ARAPD were age, educational background, first-time donation or not and phlebotomy time, among which age and first-time donation or not were positively correlated, education and phlebotomy time were negatively correlated (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Female, low age, low height and weight, and less blood donation are the basic characteristics of high-risk people with ARAPD. Low age, high education, first-time blood donation and long phlebotomy time are the influencing factors that lead to donor lapsing. Therefore, countermeasures are put forward based on the above results.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To study and analyze the characteristics of 56-60 years old apheresis platelet donors and the results of pre-donation blood testing in Tianjin, so as to provide reference for the management of blood stations and the maintenance and retention of blood donors. 【Methods】 The information of platelet donors were collected by Tianjin Blood Center from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2021.The donors aged 56-60(the observation group) were compared with donors aged 18-55(the control). The number of blood donations, male to female ratio, donation frequency, proportion of two-therapeutic-amount donation, rate of deferred donation, incidence of adverse reactions to blood donation, etc of the two groups were studied. The pre-donation test results of the two groups were also compared through the analysis of the unqualified factors of blood routine. 【Results】 From 2012 to 2021, there were 2 837 platelet donors aged 56-60 in Tianjin, and the donation frequency and proportion of two-therapeutic-amount donation were significantly higher than those in the control. The blood routine indexes were significantly different between two groups, but all fluctuated within the normal range(P<0.05). More donors in the observation group than the control were deferred due to unqualified blood routine indexes, mainly caused by Hb deferral. 【Conclusion】 In the past 9 years, the number of apheresis platelet donors aged 56-60 in Tianjin has been stablely increasing. Elderly donors always meet the health requirements of donations according to the results of blood tests. Close monitor of the blood routine indexes, however, should be paid to such population to ensure the elderly donor health and donation safety.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the potential risk factors for cryptogenic stroke (CS) in patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO).Methods:Patients underwent PFO closure in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from June 2018 to December 2021 were enrolled retrospectively. Transesophageal echocardiography was used to evaluate the morphological characteristics of foramen ovale and right-to-left shunt (RLS). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for CS in patients with PFO. Results:A total of 203 patients with PFO were enrolled. Their age was 41.9±14.3, and 116 patients (57.1%) were male. There were 102 patients in CS group and 101 patients in non-stroke group. The age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, and the constituent ratios of male, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and smoking of the CS group were significant higher than those of the non-stroke group (all P<0.05). The PFO channel of the CS group was longer, wider and more combined with resting RLS (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that systolic blood pressure (odds ratio [ OR] 1.065, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.022-1.111; P=0.003), PFO length ( OR 1.124, 95% CI 1.004-1.258; P=0.043) and resting RLS ( OR 5.449, 95% CI 2.283-13.004; P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for CS in patients with PFO. Conclusion:Systolic blood pressure, PFO length and the presence of resting RLS are the independent risk factors for CS in patients with PFO.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the long-term efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) as the first-line consolidation therapy for high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the rituximab era.Methods:From January 2010 to June 2017, 113 DLBCL patients admitted to Henan Cancer Hospital who had complete remission (CR) after rituximab combined with chemotherapy were enrolled. Among 113 patients, 40 cases received auto-HSCT as the first-line consolidation treatment after chemotherapy (transplantation group) and 73 cases received chemotherapy only (non-transplantation group). The clinical data of 113 patients were retrospectively analyzed. The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method, and OS and PFS were compared between both groups.Results:The 2-, 3- and 5-year OS rates of transplantation group and non-transplantation group were 90.0% vs. 91.8%, 84.9% vs. 80.1%, 80.9% vs. 72.8%, respectively, and the difference in OS was statistically significant of both groups ( P = 0.457); the 2-, 3- and 5-year PFS rates were 85.0% vs. 85.0%, 82.2% vs. 61.8%, 82.2% vs. 60.0%, respectively, and the difference in PFS was statistically significant of both groups ( P = 0.046). None of the patients in the transplantation group experienced early transplantation-related death. Conclusions:In the era of rituximab treatment, the first-line auto-HSCT consolidation therapy could improve the PFS of high-risk DLBCL patients who are sensitive to chemotherapy, and it may improve the OS with a good safety.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize characteristics and rules of blood pressure variability (BPV) in children with H-type hypertension, in an attempt to explore some basis for further selection of the time points of treatment.Methods:A total of 117 children diagnosed as essential hypertension in Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from March 2018 to September 2019 were selected as the research objective.According to the serum level of homocysteine (Hcy), those children were divided into the simple essential hypertension group (74 cases, Hcy≤13.9 μmol/L) and the H-type hypertension group (43 cases, Hcy>13.9 μmol/L). All children received 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24 h ABPM), and BPV indexes were recorded and subject to group comparison.Meanwhile, the serum Hcy level was monitored.Besides, the demographic data and such blood biochemical indexes as blood glucose, blood fat and renal function were recorded or measured for an analysis of the correlation between BPV and each index.Results:There were no significant differences in gender, age, body mass index (BMI) and biochemical indexes between the simple essential hypertension group and the H-type hypertension group (all P>0.05). Compared with the simple essential hypertension group, the H-type hypertension group had a significantly higher 24 h systolic blood pressure standard deviation [24 h SSD, (11.21±3.23) mmHg vs.(9.64±2.73) mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, t=-2.806, P<0.05], nighttime systolic blood pressure standard deviation [nSSD, (10.79±3.89) mmHg vs.(9.26±3.23) mmHg, t=-2.292, P<0.05], and nighttime diastolic blood pressure standard deviation [nDSD, (10.23±3.53) mmHg vs.(8.73±2.93) mmHg, t=-2.617, P<0.05]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the serum Hcy level was significantly positively correlated with 24 h, SSD, nSSD and nDSD ( r=0.194, 0.183, 0.182, all P<0.05). Conclusions:24 h SSD in children with H-type hypertension is significantly higher, with an obvious increase in both nSSD and nDSD, and the serum Hcy level was significantly positively correlated with BPV, which suggested that it was required to effectively control the serum Hcy level, reduce the range of blood pressure fluctuation and select the optimal time points of treatment, thus delaying the progress of hypertension.

HYD-PEP06, an endostatin-modified polypeptide, has been shown to produce effective anti-colorectal carcinoma effects through inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, whether HYD-PEP06 has similar suppressive effect on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remained unknown. In this study, HYD-PEP06 inhibited metastasis and EMT but not proliferation
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the risk factors, clinical features and prognosis of abnormal liver function after receiving oxaliplatin-containing chemotherapy regimen in patients with colorectal cancer, and to provide a relevant basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 108 colorectal cancer patients who received XELOX (oxaliplatin+capecitabine) or mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin+leucovorin+ 5-fluorouracil) chemotherapy regimen from October 2017 to May 2019 in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were analyzed retrospectively. According to the liver function indexes after chemotherapy, the patients were divided into abnormal liver function group and normal liver function group. The observation indexes included alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase. The clinical characteristics of liver dysfunction after oxaliplatin-containing chemotherapy were analyzed and the related factors that might lead to liver dysfunction were analyzed by using multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:Among 108 patients receiving chemotherapy, there were 67 (62.0%) cases of abnormal liver function. The main grades of liver dysfunction were grade 1 and grade 2, including 49 cases of grade 1 (73.1%) and 16 cases of grade 2 (23.9%). After chemotherapy, the abnormal liver function usually began in 1-4 cycles, of which 22 cases were 1 cycle (32.8%), 17 cases were 2 cycles (25.4%), 20 cases were 3 cycles (29.8%), and 4 cases were 4 cycles (6.0%). Univariate analysis showed that the age <60 years old, chemotherapy cycle >6, the use of mFOLFOX6 regimen, unprotected hepatoprotective drugs were related to liver dysfunction ( χ2 values were 3.910,4.799, 12.861, 4.044; all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that mFOLFOX6 regimen and unprotected hepatoprotective drugs were independent risk factors of abnormal liver function ( HR = 3.405, 95% CI 1.266-9.159, P = 0.015; HR = 2.348, 95% CI 1.012-5.477, P = 0.047). Conclusions:For patients with colorectal cancer who have a high risk of liver dysfunction after chemotherapy, it is recommended to prefer XELOX regimen among oxaliplatin-containing chemotherapy regimens and to take preventive liver protection treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate risk factors and available treatments of extramedullary relapse (EMR) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myeloid leukemia.Methods:A total of 280 patients were retrospectively analyzed from January 2008 to December 2018 in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Clinical data were collected including disease patterns, pre-transplantation status, chromosome karyotype, conditioning regimen, types of donor, extramedullary disease before transplantation and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The log-rank test and Cox proportional hazard model were uesd for univariate analysis and multivariate analysis, respectively.Results:Twenty patients developed EMR (7.14%). The median time of EMR was 7.5 (1-123) months after allo-HSCT. The mortality of EMR was 80% (16/20). Univariate analysis identified disease patterns, second complete remission (CR2) or progressive disease before transplantation, extramedullary disease, abnormal karyotype and conditioning regimen without total body radiation as significant factors correlated to EMR ( P<0.05). Multi-variable analysis revealed that CR2 or progressive disease ( RR=3.468,95% CI 2.189-7.786), abnormal karyotype ( RR=1.494,95% CI 1.020-2.189) and extramedullary disease before transplantation ( RR=8.627,95% CI 3.921-18.452) were independent risk factors of EMR. Conclusions:The clinical outcome of EMR after allo-HSCT is poor.It is crucial to comprehensively assess and identify EMR as early as possible.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To analyze and characterize the trend of blood collection and supply in Tianjin from 2010 to 2019, so as to provide references for respective working plans in Tianjin Blood Center. 【Methods】 Through the blood information management system, the issued amount of various blood components from Tianjin Blood Center from 2010 to 2019 was statistically analyzed; the number and respective data of blood donors in Tianjin in recent 10 years were sorted out and analyzed. 【Results】 From 2010 to 2019, the amount of issued blood components in Tianjin Blood Center increased year by year, with an average annual growth rate of 3.22%(×100%). The utilization rate of blood components in clinical increased year by year, reaching 99.99%(642 240.2/642 250.2)by the end of 2019.The consumption of platelets and cryoprecipitated coagulation factor increased rapidly, accounting for 8.89%(57 111.0/642 250.2)and 2.65%(16 989.0/642 250.2), respectively. In recent 10 years, a total of 1 473 172 blood donors have donated blood voluntarily, and the number increased steadily. Among the blood donors, those aged 18-35 took up the largest proportion, reaching 79.13%(116 5548/1 473 172). The ratio of male to female was about 3∶1, with male blood donors accounting for the vast majority.The main blood donors were students, staff and workers. In 2018, the blood donation rate in Tianjin was only 12.2‰, which lagged behind provincial capital cities and economically developed areas in terms of blood collection units per capita and other indicators. 【Conclusion】 Although blood collection and supply in Tianjin is generally developing scientifically and reasonably, the current situation is still very serious.It is necessary to formulate and improve blood donation strategies according to actual situations. The data in this study is helpful inguiding advance planning, overall construction and scientific development of future blood collection and supply in Tianjin.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To establish an ARIMA model to fit the distributed units of four blood components from 2010 to 2018 in Tianjin and test the fitting degree, so as to predict the future issuing units of these blood products, and provide scientific basis for the blood center to formulate blood collection and donor recruitment plan. 【Methods】 The monthly distributed data of blood components from 2010 to 2019 were sorted out to establish the ARIMA model. The model identification, parameter estimation and test of the distributed data concerning red cells, plasma, apheresis platelet and white cells from January 2010 to December 2019 were performed to determine the optimal model using Eviews 10.0 software. Considering the obvious trend and seasonality of data, the seasonal model was chosen to predict the issuing of four blood products in January to December 2019, and the fitting degree was tested by comparing with the actual value. 【Results】 The ARIMA model residual autocorrelation function and partial autocorrelation function of four blood components showed that the regression residuals of each product had the same variance. The predicted value of supply was basically within 95% CI, and the curve trend of model fitting value and actual value was basically consistent, The average relative errors of red cells, plasma, apheresis platelets and white cells were 6.19%, 5.08%, 1.72% and 7.17%, respectively. 【Conclusion】 ARIMA model can appropriately fit the change trend of blood supply in Tianjin, which is helpful to understand the clinical requirements in the near future, provide the basis for blood collection, recruitment and inventory management.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To study and analyze the basic characteristics of blood donors under the COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin area, so as to provide data support for improving the blood collection for emergency incidents. 【Methods】 The blood collection data of Tianjin Blood Center under the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020 were collected in terms of the number of blood donations, changes in blood donation units over time, group blood donation, donations given by regular blood donors and donations inside fixed blood donation sites, registered residence, gender, age, education, occupation, individual donation, group donation, and the annual daily blood collection and delivery data in Tianjin. 【Results】 The number of blood donations and donation units in Feb 2020 decreased by 56.96%(3 226/7 496-1)and 62.40%(5 382/14 314.5-1)compared with the same period in 2019, and decreased by 56.87%(3 226/7 480-1)and 60.70%(5 382/13 695.7-1)compared with the average value in the previous five years. The number of blood donations, donation units and rate of 400 mL donation in 2020 decreased by 13.25%(119 107/137 293-1), 17.7%(205 196.5/249 405-1)and 12.83%(66.0/75.8-1)respectively. Meanwhile the units of group donation increased by 22.59%(44 118.5/35 989.0-1)as compared with those in 2019. The proportion of regular blood donors raised up to 17.31%(20 623/119 107, which was the highest in recent 6 years. During the epidemic period, the number of blood donations of local registered residence, women, over 36 years old, with bachelor and above degree increased by varied extent compared with previous years. Workers, staff members and others were the main groups of voluntary blood donation, and civil servant, medical workers, farmers and teachers also played a certain role during the epidemic. 【Conclusion】 The clinical blood use in Tianjin was basically guaranteed during the COVID-19 epidemic. It is suggested to further optimize the structure of voluntary blood donors, establish a diversified and multi-level group blood donation team, and increase the number of regular blood donors.

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To construct lentiviral vector of late endosomal/lysosomal adaptor, mitogen-activated protein kinase and mammalian target of rapamycin activator 2 (lamtor2) gene, and to explore its regulatory role on inflammatory response of macrophages after Klebsiella pneumoniae infection.@*Methods@#Two pairs of mouse lamtor2 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) were designed and sub-cloned into PLKO.1-puro to construct lentiviral vector, and were transfected into the murine RAW264.7 macrophage. There were two experimental groups including pLKO.1-puro shlamtor 2-1(sh1 group) and pLKO.1-puro shlamtor 2-2 (sh2 group), and the RAW264.7 cells transfected with non-treated pLKO.1-puro was set as control. The expession of lamtor2 were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot. The levels of inflammatory factors including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α secreted by the cells were detected by RT-qPCR. T test was used for comparison between groups.@*Results@#The recombinant lentiviral vector PLKO.1-shlamtor 2 transfected RAW264.7 cells successfully. The relative expressions of lamtor2 mRNA in the control group, the sh1 group and the sh2 group were 1.000±0.000, 0.596±0.125 and 0.120±0.080, respectively. The expression of lamtor2 in the sh2 group was significantly lower than that in the sh1 group (t=3.399, P=0.015), and they were both significantly lower than the control group (t=3.333 and 9.734, respectively, both P< 0.05). After infection with Klebsiella pneumoniae, expression levels of IL-1β (t=15.20), IL-6 (t=43.30) and TNF-α (t=12.67) were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01).@*Conclusion@#The lentiviral vector of lamtor2 can stably down-regulate the expression of lamtor2 gene in macrophages through RNA interference mechanism, which has a significant effect on the secretion of inflammatory factors of macrophages that are infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae.
