ABSTRACT

Recombinant humanized anti-ricin monoclonal antibody (MIL50) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody targeting ricin. In this study, an ELISA method was used to establish a method for the determination of MIL50 in macaque serum, and a cross design method was used. Twelve rhesus monkeys were intravenously injected 1 mg·kg-1 test preparation (MIL50 freeze-died powder injection) and reference preparation (MIL50 liquid preparation) to determine the plasma concentration of MIL50 at different time points, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed to compare the pharmacokinetic characteristics of MIL50 liquid preparation and freeze-died powder injection in rhesus monkeys. Animal welfare and experimental procedures follow the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Use of Laboratory Animals and the regulations derived by the Animal Care and Welfare Committee of the Institute of Radiation Medicine, Academy of Military Medical Sciences (IACUC-DWZX-2020-503). The results showed that there was no significant difference between Cmax and AUC0-5d in the two groups. The liquid preparation was the reference preparation, with Cmax ratio of 101.6% and AUC0-5d ratio of 101.9%, the 90% confidence interval of Cmax was 79.42%-129.92%, and the 90% confidence interval of AUC0-5d was 85.72%-121.18%. These results suggested that different dosage forms of MIL50 had certain differences in the changes of blood drug concentration in rhesus monkeys.

ABSTRACT

This study was designed to identify the pathogen causing soft rot of Pinellia ternata in Qianjiang of Hubei province and screen out the effective bactericides, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the control of soft rot of P. ternata. In this study, the pathogen was identified based on molecular biology and physiological biochemistry, followed by the detection of pathogenicity and pathogenicity spectrum via plant tissue inoculation in vitro and the indoor toxicity determination using the inhibition zone method to screen out bactericide with good antibacterial effects. The control effect of the bactericide against P. ternata soft rot was verified by the leave and tuber inoculation in vitro. The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the 16 S rDNA, dnaX gene, and recA gene sequences, respectively, and the result showed that the pathogen belonged to the same branch as the type strain Dickeya fangzhongdai JS5. The physiological and biochemical tests showed that the pathogen was identical to D. fangzhongdai, which proved that the pathogen was D. fangzhongdai. The pathogenicity test indicated that the pathogen could obviously infect leaves at 24 h and tubers in 3 d. As revealed by the indoor toxicity test, 0.3% tetramycin, 5% allicin, and 80% ethylicin had good antibacterial activities, with EC_(50) values all less than 50 mg·L~(-1). Tests in tissues in vitro showed that 5% allicin exhibited the best control effect, followed by 0.3% tetramycin and 10% zhongshengmycin oligosaccharide, and their preventive effects were better than curative effects. Therefore, 5% allicin can be used as the preferred agent for the control of P. ternata soft rot, and 0.3% tetramycin and 10% zhongshengmycin oligosaccharide as the alternatives. This study has provided a certain theoretical basis for the control of P. ternata soft rot.

ABSTRACT

To examine the outcomes of surgical treatment in patients of type Stanford A aortic dissection with Kommerell's diverticulum. From January 2009 to August 2017, patients of type Stanford A aortic dissection with Kommerell's diverticulum who underwent the Sun procedure were enrolled. Patient demographic, preoperative, intraoperative, early morbidity and mortality data were collected from medical and electronic patient records. Clinical follow-up data, including late morbidity and mortality, were obtained by telephone interview with the patient. A total of 13 patients (11 males and 2 females; mean age 47 years) were included. The mean maximum diameter of Kommerell's diverticulum was (21.8±7.7) mm. The Kommerell's diverticulum was repaired by direct suture of the orifice in 3 patients, ligation of the aberrant right subclavian artery in 9 patients, and suture and ligation in 1 patient, respectively. No perioperative death occurred. One patient underwent a reexploration for bleeding. There were 2 late deaths: unknown reason in 1 patient and septic shock secondary to renal abscess in 1 patient. Reintervention was performed in one patient for a persistent type Ⅱ endoleak. The Sun procedure with femoral artery cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass, unilateral carotid artery cannulation for selective cerebral perfusion and ligation of aberrant right subclavian artery on the right side of the trachea is an appropriate therapeutic strategy for patients of type Stanford A aortic dissection with Kommerell's diverticulum.

ABSTRACT

Soil microorganisms are one of the important biological indictors of soil quality and can reflct the comprehensive ecological environment characteristics of the soil. The research of soil microbial diversity is the key to know the ecological functions and balance with soil. In this paper, high-throughput sequencing on PCR-amplified 16 S rRNA gene V3-V4 fragments was used to determine the bacterial diversity in rhizosphere soil of A. macrocephala under the treatment with BZJN1 or streptoprofen. The results showed that there were no significant differences of the bacteria in A. macrocephala rhizosphere soil of the streptoprofen treatment group and the biocontrol BZJN1 treatment group. All the soil bacteria was classified into 25 categories,67 classes, 108 orders, 167 families and 271 generas, except some unidentified bacteria. Proteobacteria(30.7%-34.8%) was the dominant phylum, of which Alphaproteobacteria(16.8%-18.5%) was the dominant subgroup. Compared with the control group, the relative abundance of multiple phylums bacteria in the rhizosphere soil of A. macrocephala was significantly changed in the streptoprofen treatment group and the biocontrol BZJN1 treatment group. In addition, RDA analysis showed that there was connection with different environmental factors and microbial communities. The abundance of the three genera in the rhizosphere soil of A. macrocephala was significantly positively correlated with Invertase, Urease and AP. PICRUSt function prediction results showed that BZNJ1 could enhance some bacterial functions and promote the plant growth. Biocontrol is a new type of green and safety control pest method. BZNJ1 significantly enhances some bacterial functions on the basis of effectively preventing root rot of A. macrocephala and promoting plant growth, and has no significant effect on the soil bacterial community structure. All the results can provide theoretical support for popularization of BZNJ1.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate long-term clinical outcomes of consecutive patients treated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) with drug-eluting stents(DES) for ostial/shaft lesions in unprotected left main coronary artery(ULMCA). Method: A total of 259 patients with isolated ostial/midshaft lesions in unprotected left main coronary artery were enrolled consecutively who received DES implantation or underwent CABG between January 2003 and July 2009 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital. The endpoints of the study were death, repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Time to the primary endpoint was evaluated according to the Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank test was applied to compare the incidence of the endpoint. Adjusted risks for adverse outcomes were compared by multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses. Results: A total of 259 patients were included, including 149 in PCI group and 110 in CABG group. And 193(74.5%) cases were males.The age was (61.4±9.8) years old. The median follow-up was 10.1 years (interquartile range 8.3 to 11.2 years) in the overall patients. There were no significant difference for the incidence of death [37.0% vs. 43.1% ,P=0.143] , MI [34.0% vs. 19.4% ,P=0.866], stroke [6.4% vs. 11.7% , P=0.732], repeart revascularization [33.6% vs. 39.9% ,P=0.522] between PCI group and CABG group before multivariate adjusting,according to the incidence calculated with Kaplan-Meier. After adjusting covariates such as age, left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and serum creatine with multivariate Cox hazard regression model, there was still no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusions: PCI with DES is as effective and safe as CABG in patients with left main ostium/shaft lesion during a median follow-up of 10.1 years.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Hook plate is usual and satisfactory for the treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation, but there are still many problems. The comparative analysis is seldom reported between reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament by autogenous tendon combined with hook plate and simple hook plate. OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament combined with hook plate and simple hook plate fixation for acromioclavicular joint dislocation. METHODS: A total of 38 patients with acromioclavicular dislocation were randomly divided into two groups. The patients were treated with plantar tendon "V" reconstruction with coracoclavicular ligament combined with hook plate fixation (combination group) and with a simple hook plate fixation (simple hook plate group). We compared the operation time, blood loss, hospitalization days, average hospitalization costs, the time taken for internal fixation, the motion range of shoulder joint at postoperative 12 months, the Constant-Murley function score, the reduction of shoulder joint and the Visual Analogue Scale scores between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Patients in both groups were followed up for 12 months. In the combination group, the hook plate was removed at postoperative 3 months. In the simple hook plate group, the hook plate was removed at approximately postoperative 12 months. In follow-up, no dislocation appeared in both groups. (2) No significant difference in hospitalization days, motion range of shoulder joint, Constant-Murley function score, the reduction of shoulder joint and the Visual Analogue Scale scores was determined between the two groups (P > 0.05). (3) Operation time was longer; blood loss was more; and average hospitalization costs were higher in the combination group than in the simple hook plate group (P < 0.05). (4) These findings indicate that plantar tendon reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament combined with hook plate meets biomechanical requirements in the treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation. The plate can be removed early using a fixator. The lower extremity has an incision, but the follow-up results are satisfactory. Simple hook plate fixation for acromioclavicular joint dislocation takes a long time, and can obtain average effect, but there is the risk of re-dislocation (this case does not experience re-dislocation). The appropriate treatment can be chosen according to the patient's condition, needs, and economic conditions.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the degrees of injury severity of sepsis models made by different kinds of Escherichia coli. Methods The 152 mice were randomly divided into control group, DH5α group, 44102 group, and 25922 group, with 38 rats in each group. DH5α group, 44102 group and 25922 group were intraperitoneally injected with 300 μL of Escherichia coli DH5α, 44102 and 25922 at the concentration of 1.0 × 109CFU/kg to prepare sepsis models of different kinds of Escherichia coli. Control group was injected intraperitoneally with the same amount of normal saline. (1) After 8 h, four mice were taken from each group for peripheral blood bacterial culture . (2) After 12 h, ten mice in each group were used for measuring serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). (3) Western blot assay was used to determine the serum levels of high-mobility group protein (HMGB1) in four mice of each group. (4) Ten mice in each group were used to measure serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine (CR) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) by automatic biochemical analyzer. (5) After liver, lung and kidney tissues were fixed with formaldehyde, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed (n=10 for each group). Results In DH5α group, 44102 group and 25922 group, bacteria, inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6 and HMGB1 protein, liver and kidney indicators ALT, AST, CR and BUN showed a sequential increasing trend (P<0.01). The severe degrees of alveolar structure damage, hepatic cell infiltration and renal glomerular atrophy were DH5α group, 44102 group and 25922 group in turn. There were no obvious damages of lung, liver or kidney tissues in control group. Conclusion Escherichia coli 25922 induces severe sepsis injury and can be used to study the animal models of the initial inflammatory phase of sepsis. Escherichia coli 44102 induces moderate damage of sepsis and can be used in animal models that do not require definitive sepsis staging experiments. Escherichia coli DH5α induces less damage of sepsis and can be used to explore immunosuppressive therapy of the animal model of sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of 12-O-tetradecanoylophorbol-13-decanoate(TPD)on protection against acute intestinal radiation injury of mice and the possible mechanism.Methods Twenty female BALB/c mice aged 6-8 weeks were divided by random number table method into the control group and TPD groups(25,50,and 100 μg/kg). A radiation-damaged model of mice was irradiated by 10 Gy 60Co γ-rays,while the TPD groups were pretreated for 3 d with caudal vein injection before irradiation.The survival time of 20 days and the number of crypts at 3.5 days after irradiation were detected.Rat intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6)were treated with 1 nmol/L TPD for 12 h before irradiation with 10 Gy 60Co γ-rays,and CCK-8 was used to detect the capability of cell proliferation at 0,1,2,3 and 4 d after irradiation. Results The mice in the control group survived for an average of 4.2 days,compared to 10 days in the optimal TPD group (100 μg/kg).The average number of crypts in the control group and the best TPD group was 11.0 ±1.3 and 35.1 ±1.9 respectively.The proliferation activity of IEC-6 was measured for four consecutive days.The average D value of the TPD groups was significantly higher than that of control.Conclusion TPD has a protective effect against acute intestinal radiation injury, and its protective mechanism may be achieved by promoting intestinal crypt cell proliferation and increasing the number of crypts in the intestine.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of elemene combined with chemotherapy on S100A4 and MMP-9 protein expression in Lewis lung carcinoma mice and to explore the possible mechanism. Methods Twenty-four mice inoculated with Lewis cells were randomly divided into 4 groups,including lung carcinoma model group,chemotherapy group,elemene group,and combination group,6 mice in each group. On day 11 after inoculation, the mice in chemotherapy group were given intraperitoneal injection of etoposide (3 mg·kg-1·d-1)and cisplatin (3 mg·kg-1·d-1),the mice in elemene group were given intraperitoneal injection of elemene (100 mg·kg-1·d-1), the mice in the combination group were given intraperitoneal injection of elemene (100 mg·kg-1·d-1),etoposide (3 mg·kg-1·d-1),and cisplatin (3 mg·kg-1·d-1). After 7-day continuous treatment,the tumor body mass, spleen index, thoracic gland index, growth-inhibition rate, and metastasis-inhibition rate in various groups were measured,the contents of protein S100A4 and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9)in tumor tissues were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and the protein expression levels of S100A4 and MMP-9 were detected by immunohistochemical staining. Results In the combination group, the growth-inhibition rate and the inhibitory rate of metastases were increased obviously, the spleen index and thoracic gland index were also increased, the contents of S100A4 and MMP-9 were decreased, and the protein expression rates of S100A4 and MMP-9 were reduced(P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 compared with the chemotherapy group). Conclusion Elemene combined with chemotherapy could inhibit the Lewis lung carcinoma growth and metastasis in mice, and the possible mechanism might be associated with the decrease of S100A4 and MMP-9 protein expression in the tumor tissues.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical and pathological features and the diagnosis of childhood Alport syndrome (AS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 91 children with AS.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Hematuria was observed in all 91 patients, of whom 86 were accompanied with proteinuria. Sixty-one children with X-Linked AS (XL-AS) had positive family history. Renal biopsy was performed on 82 children. Mild to moderate mesangial proliferation was observed in 74 cases. Small amounts of immune complexes deposits in the glomerular mesangial area were observed in 48 cases. Glomerular basement membrane (GBM) attenuation, thickening and layering were observed in 53 cases by electron microscopy (EM). In 63 cases receiving renal tissue type IV collagen α3 and α5 chain immunofluorescence detection, 58 were diagnosed with AS, including 53 cases of XL-AS and 5 cases of autosomal recessive AS. In 91 cases of AS, 58 were diagnosed as AS by renal tissue type IV collagen α3 and α5 chain immunofluorescence, 21 were diagnosed by EM, one was diagnosed by skin biopsy, and 12 were diagnosed by gene detection. Six novel mutations of COL4A5 gene were found. Forty-five cases were misdiagnosed before the diagnosis of AS. Forty-one of the 45 cases received steroids and/or immunosuppressant therapy.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The clinical manifestations and pathological changes are not specific in children with AS, resulting in a higher rate of misdiagnosis. Typical lesions of GBM under EM are only observed in a part of patients. There is a high novel mutation rate of COL4A5 in the detected AS children.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore GRACE (global registry of acute coronary events)score on short term prognosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)in patients elder than 75 years with primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Methods: A total of 104 STEMI patients elder than 75 years with primary PCI in our hospital from 2011-11 to 2014-01 were studied. Based on GRACEscore at admission, the patients were divided into 2 groups: Lower/mid risk group, n=72 patients with GRACEscore at 112-154 (136.5±10.6) and High risk group, n=32 patients with GRACE score at 155-202(167.8±12.3). The baseline condition and outcomes were compared between 2 groups and the primary endpoint was 1 year mortality. Predictive value of GRACEscore on 1 year mortality was evaluated by ROC curve, the relationships between Lower/mid risk group, High risk group and clinical outcomes were assessed by log-ranksurvive curve andunivariate Cox regression analysis. Results: The area under ROC curve for GRACEscore predicting 1 year mortality was 0.788 with the sensitivity at 70.0%and specificity at 84.0 %.Univariate Cox regression analysis indicated that compared with Lower/mid risk group, High risk group had the higher risk of 1-year death (HR=5.75, 95% CI 1.486-22.256, P=0.0113); log-rank survive curve presented that High risk group had the higher 1 year mortality (21.9% vs 4.2%, P=0.0039). Conclusion: GRACE score may further distinguish the lower/mid risk and high risk populations in elder STEMI patients; it may also predict 1 year clinical prognosis.

Results The average annual crude mortality rate of malignant tumors was 142.90/100000 in Xiqing District of Tianjin from 2010 to 2015, and the standardized mortality rate was 98.95/100000. The average crude mortality rate of male was 165.25/100000, the standardized mortality rate was 110.21/100000. The average crude mortality rate of female was 121.23/100000, and the standardized mortality rate was 87.54/100000. Among the leading causes of death in malignant tumors, the top three leading cancer types were lung cancer (62.42/100000), liver cancer (18.82/100000) and gastric cancer (13.22/100000). The mortality rates of lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, leukemia, esophageal cancer, bladder cancer and nasopharyngeal carcinoma were significantly higher in males than those in females (P<0.05). There were death cases in different age groups, and the high mortality rate was concentrated in the age group of 0-1 and age group of more than 85. Conclusion The lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer and other malignant tumors pose a serious threat to the health of Xiqing district residents.

Methods The death monitoring data in 2010-2015 of Xiqing District were collected, and which were classified by international classification of diseases ICD-10 encoding. The mortality rate, standardized mortality rate of malignant tumor and tumor death in different gender and age groups were analyzed. Results The average annual crude mortality rate of malignant tumors was 142.90/100000 in Xiqing District of Tianjin from 2010 to 2015, and the standardized mortality rate was 98.95/100000. The average crude mortality rate of male was 165.25/100000, the standardized mortality rate was 110.21/100000. The average crude mortality rate of female was 121.23/100000, and the standardized mortality rate was 87.54/100000.
