ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the molecular mechanism of the disease based on the clinical characterization and genetic mutation analysis in a family with hereditary spherocytosis.@*METHODS@#The proband with jaundice and anemia was referred to Yidu Central Hospital of Weifang in May 2021. Peripheral blood samples were collected from six members of the family. Second-generation sequencing was used to screen the pathological mutations, and the clinically significant variant sites were selected. Then the relevant databases were used to analyze the variant sites, and RT-qPCR was used to detect the relative mRNA levels of candidate gene. The structure and function of SPTB protein were analyzed by UniProt and SMART databases.@*RESULTS@#We infer that the SPTB gene copy number variation (CNV) deletion was co-segregated with the phenotype of the patients in this family based on the results of second-generation sequencing (about 700 target genes). The UCSC Genome Browser demonstrated that the deleted region was mainly located in exon2-3 of SPTB gene. The results of RT-qPCR showed that the relative SPTB mRNA levels of all patients were lower than the healthy control. UniProt and SMART databases analysis showed that SPTB protein without CH1 and CH2 domains could not bind to erythrocyte membrane actin.@*CONCLUSION@#The CNV deletion of SPTB gene may be the reason for the hereditary spherocytosis in this family.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of DCAG regimen for treating the intermediate or high risk MDS and AML.@*METHODS@#PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of decitabine combined with CAG regimen for intermediate or high risk MDS and AML from inception to March, 2018. The quality of each RCT was evaluated by the Cochrane collaboration´s tool for assessing the risk of bias.Then, the data were analyzed by using RevMan 5.3.@*RESULTS@#Twenty-four RCTs were included in the meta-analysis, containing 1 557 patients with intermediate or high-risk MDS and AML, of whom 594 were AML patients and 590 were MDS patients. The patients treated with the DCAG regimen were enrolled in DCAG group, and the patients treated with single-agent decitabine or CAG regimen were enrolled in control group.@*RESULTS@#The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with other therapies, the complete remission rate of DCAG regimen in patients with intermediate or high-risk MDS and AML was high (RR=1.63,95% CI=1.43-1.85,P<0.000 01), and the overall response rate was also high (RR=1. 35,95% CI=1.24-1.46,P<0.000 01); Subgroup analysis results showed that DCAG regimen was better than CAG regimen in the complete remission rate (RR=1.71,95% CI=1.49-1.97,P<0.000 01), and slightly better than single-agent decitabine group (RR=1.43,95% CI=1.08-1.91,P=0.01). In terms of adverse reactions, there was no statistically significant difference in the rates of myelosuppression, pulmonary infection, gastrointestinal reactions, and bleeding events between the 2 groups (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#DCAG regimen has significant efficacy in the treatment of intermediate or high-risk MDS and AML, and is superior to CAG regimen and single-agent dicitabine regimen. As compared with control group, there was no significant difference in adverse events. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify above mentioned conclusion.

ABSTRACT

Objective To verify and evaluate the clinical performance of LD BC-Ⅰ blood cell image automatic analyzer.Methods A total of 202 EDTA-Na2 anticoagulant blood specimens were collected at the hospital clinic randomly between October and December 2016.After wright staining,each specimen was examined by microscopy and automatic analyzer respectively,the detection efficiency and the results of nuclear cells classification were compared between artificial microscopy and automatic analyzer,the correlation and consistency of two methods were further analyzed.Results The average time required for each specimen of the automatic analyzer was reduced by 3.81 minutes when compared with artificial microscopy,the P values was less than 0.01.LD BC-Ⅰ agreed 71.4%,64.8%,28.8%,21.1% and 71.6% respectively for pre-differentiation of the blast cells,promyelocytes,myelocyte,metamyelocytes and atypical lymphocytes.The diagnosis accordance rates of five nucleated cells above increased to 87.7%,81.5%,38.1%,26.3% and 86.2% after manual review.Passing Bablok regression analysis found that the correlation coefficient (r) of two methods of neutrophils was 0.981,lympho kjcytes (r =0.894),monocytes (r=0.725),eosinophils (r=0.772),and there were significant correlation between two methods (all P <0.01).Bland-Altman analysis found that the coincidence rate of the neutrophils and lymphocytes were 96%,the monocytes were 91% and the eosinophils were 94%.Conclusion The LD BC-Ⅰ automatic blood cell image analyzer could significantly improve the analysis efficiency of the nucleated cells.There was good consistency in the classification results of mature granulocytes,monocytes and lymphocytes between instrumental detection and artificial microscopy.The method has certain clinical value to be applied widely.

ABSTRACT

This study was purposed to investigate the expression of RPL36A (ribosomal protein 36a) in the newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and its mechanism at the molecular level. The RPL36A mRNA expression in the newly diagnosed AML cells, U937 cells and normal MNCs was determined by RT-PCR. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting to RPL36A was transfected into U937 cells by Lipofectamine 2000 system. Proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis of U937 were observed through MTT assay, flow cytometry, acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) double staining, TUNEL and Annexin V/FITC respectively. RPL36A mRNA and protein expression levels were detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis respectively. The results showed that RPL36A expression in the newly diagnosed AML cells and U937 cells was significantly upregulated. The average OD value of U937 cells transfected with RPL36A siRNA was significantly lower as compared with 3 control groups. The cell percentage in G2-and S-phase increased, which indicated the inhibition effect of RPL36A siRNA on cell proliferation. Remarkable cell apoptosis in U937 cells treated with RPL36A siRNA was observed by AO/EB, TUNEL analysis and Annexin V/FITC assay; RPL36A mRNA and protein expression level of U937 cells treated with siRNA were significantly declined in a time-dependent manner (r=0.9813 and 0.9537). It is concluded that the RPL36A expression in the AML cells is significantly enhanced and the RPL36A gene may be involved in regulation of cell cycle and cell apoptosis of AML, which promotes proliferation of AML cells and inhibits apoptosis of cells.
