Research progress on the role and mechanisms of gut microbiota and related biomarkers in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease / 中华检验医学杂志

Coronary heart disease (CHD) has become a major public health issue in China. Gut microbiota has gradually become a CHD research hotspot in terms of auxiliary diagnosis, treatment and prevention targets. Results from multiple studies have shown that gut microbiota dysbiosis may mediate the process of CHD directly or indirectly through their metabolites, and some intestinal probiotics could inhibit the progression of atherosclerosis. The research advances on the related mechanism and their diagnostic efficacy as biomarkers of gut microbiota and metabolites in CHD are reviewed here to provide a reference for current and future clinical application.

Blood screening results of voluntary blood donors in Xi′an district from 2012 to 2021: a retrospective study / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To explore the population characteristics, the reasons for deferral and the changing trend of unqualified rate of blood test of voluntary blood donors in Xi′an, so as to provide a data support for recruiting low-risk regular blood donors, reducing unqualified rate, improving blood safety and blood quality. 【Methods】 The age, gender, occupation, education and unqualified blood test of voluntary blood donors in Xi′an area from 2012 to 2021 were classified and analyzed retrospectively. 【Results】 The number of voluntary blood donors in Xi′an increased year by year from 2012 to 2021, while the overall unqualified rate of blood test kept decreasing, with an overall unqualified rate at 2.36%, which was at a middle level in China. There were more male blood donors than female donors, and the highest proportion of blood donors in terms of age, occupation and education was between 21-30 years old group (40.19%), other occupation group(21.75%), and undergraduate and above group (32.61%) respectively. The total unqualified rate was ALT (0.68%)>HBsAg (0.55%) > anti -HCV (0.48%) > anti -TP (0.43%) > anti -HIV (0.17%). The unqualified rate of blood donors aged 31 to 40 was the highest. With the increase of academic qualifications, the unqualified rate generally showed a gradual downward trend. The unqualified rate of soldiers, teachers, civil servants and medical workers was low, while the unqualified rates of various items of students were high. There were seasonal differences in the total number of blood donors, the total unqualified rate and the unqualified rate of each item (except anti -HIV). 【Conclusion】 The voluntary blood donors are mainly males, aged 21 to 30, with other occupations and with bachelor degree or above. Regular voluntary blood donation teams in this area should be established among soldiers, teachers, civil servants, medical workers and highly educated groups, and more attention should be paid to health consultation for workers, farmers and students before blood donation.

Occult hepatitis C virus infection in volunteer blood donors in Shaanxi province / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To investigate the prevalence of occult hepatitis C virus infection (OCI) in Shaanxi blood donors and characterize the occult hepatitis C virus in this cohort. 【Methods】 Between July and September of 2019, 112, 117, 46, and 75 blood samples were obtained from eligible donors, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) elevated donors(ALT>50 U/L), hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) positive donors, and anti-hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV) positive donors, respectively. Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBMCs) were isolated from all the samples. HCV 5′UTR was amplified from total RNA of PBMCs using reverse transcription nested PCR (RT-Nested PCR) to detect the infection status of OCI in blood donors. HCV RNA core/E2 region was amplified from HCV RNA positive samples with RT-Nested PCR to determine HCV genotypes and subtypes via sequencing. 【Results】 Two (2.67%, 2/75) cases of OCI were identified in anti-HCV positive samples, 1(0.85%, 1/117) case of OCI was identified in abnormal ALT samples, and all OCI were genotyped as 1b. OCI was not found in HBsAg positive and eligible blood donors. 【Conclusions】 Our findings suggest that OCI does exist among Shaanxi blood donors and that ALT may be useful in diagnosing OCI.

Fusobacterium nucleatum promotes TNF-α-induced inflammatory changes in colorectal cancer HCT116 cell through NF-κB signaling pathway / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective:To investigate the mechanism by which Fusobacterium nucleatum ( Fn) infection promotes TNF-α-induced inflammatory changes in colorectal cancer HCT116 cells. Methods:Fn-infected cells and TNF-α inflammation induction models were established and divided into 4 groups, namely uninfected control group, Fn-infected group, TNF-α induction group, and Fn+ TNF-α group. First, Fn was used to infect normal colonic epithelial cells hcoEPIC, colorectal cancer HCT116 and LoVo cells, the cell adhesion was detected 4 h later. Subsequently, HCT116 cells were induced with TNF-α for 3 h and then infected with Fn. After 24 h, the cell survival rate and cell damage were detected by CCK8 experiment and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) viability assay. The ELISA method was further used to detect the expression of nuclear transcription factor NF-κB and cytokines IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1β in the cell and cell culture supernatant. Results:Fn has strong adhesion to colorectal cancer cells HCT116 and LoVo ( P<0.05), but basically does not show invasion. On the contrary, it has a higher invasion rate to normal colonic epithelial cells hcoEPIC after 24 h. Compared with the uninfected Fn group, the cell survival rate of the Fn-infected group was significantly reduced and the cell damage increased ( P<0.001). Three hours after TNF-α induction, Fn infection further promoted cell death and damage ( P<0.001). The expression of NF-κB in the Fn infection and TNF-α alone treatment group was significantly higher than that of the uninfected group ( P<0.001, P<0.05), and the NF-κB expression in the Fn+ TNF-α group was significantly higher than that of the control group and the single treatment group ( P<0.001). In the Fn infection and TNF-α treatment groups, the expressions of IL-6 and IL-8 were significantly higher than those in the uninfected group ( P<0.001), and IL-1β did not change significantly ( P>0.05). The expressions of IL-6, IL-8 and IL-1β in the Fn+ TNF-α group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group and the single treatment group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Fusobacterium nucleatum can preferentially adhere to colorectal cancer cell HCT116, further promote TNF-α-induced cell damage and death, the expression and release of NF-κB and its downstream pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β.

Pathogenicity evaluation and splicing correction of COL4A5 splice mutation in X-linked Alport syndrome / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective:To analyze the splicing mutation site of COL4A5 gene in a family with X-linked dominant Alport syndrome and explore the possibility of exon specific U1 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) gene therapy. Methods:The clinical data of the proband and family members of Alport syndrome were collected, and the gene mutations in the whole exon of a series of nephropathy genes in the proband were detected by high-throughput sequencing. The splice site changes and pathogenicity caused by COL4A5 c.546+5G>A mutation were analyzed by online software. Minigene experiment was used to verify and analyze the effect of COL4A5 gene mutation site c.546+5G>A in the proband of Alport syndrome family, and transient transfection and introduction of modified U1 snRNA to correct splicing mutation. Results:The results of gene sequencing showed that there was a hemizygous variation of COL4A5 gene in the proband and his half brother, and the variation site was c.546+5G>A. The results of online software for analyzing the pathogenicity of splice variation showed that the original donor splicing site could not be detected after mutation, suggesting that there was a great possibility of affecting splicing. The abnormal splicing mode of COL4A5 gene with c.546+5G>A mutation—deletion of exon 9 was verified by hybridized small gene detection. The abnormal splicing mutation could be partially corrected by the modified U1 snRNA. The correction ratios of ExSpeU1 (MT), ExSpeU1(E9+1), ExSpeU1(E9+9) and ExSpeU1(E9+11) to exon 9 deletion caused by c.546+5G>A were 0, 43.81%, 52.09% and 48.12%, respectively. Conclusions:The pathogenicity of the new splicing mutation of COL4A5 is verified, and the modified U1 snRNA can partially correct the abnormal splicing.

Clinical Research Progress of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in the Treatment of Small Cell Lung Cancer / 中国肺癌杂志

With the in-depth study of tumor immunity, immunotherapy represented by immune checkpoint inhibitors has made a great breakthrough in solid tumors. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for about 15%-20% of all lung cancers, with high malignancy, early metastasis and lack of effective treatment strategy. The appearance of immune checkpoint inhibitors brings new hope for SCLC. Several clinical trials have demonstrated the persistent efficacy and clinical activity of the programmed death receptor/ligand 1 (PD-1/L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) in the treatment of SCLC. However, its efficacy and safety are not very accurate, and the markers that can effectively predict the efficacy of immunotherapy have not been concluded. In this paper, for further changing the treatment strategy of SCLC clinical practice and providing theoretical basis of research, we reviewed the progress of immune checkpoint inhibitors, related markers in the treatment of SCLC by exploring the value, problems and challenges of immunotherapy in SCLC.

Procaine Attenuates Pain Behaviors of Neuropathic Pain Model Rats Possibly via Inhibiting JAK2/STAT3

Neuropathic pain (NPP) is the main culprit among chronic pains affecting the normal life of patients. Procaine is a frequently-used local anesthesia with multiple efficacies in various diseases. However, its role in modulating NPP has not been reported yet. This study aims at uncovering the role of procaine in NPP. Rats were pretreated with procaine by intrathecal injection. Then NPP rat model was induced by sciatic nerve chronic compression injury (CCI) and behavior tests were performed to analyze the pain behaviors upon mechanical, thermal and cold stimulations. Spinal expression of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. JAK2 was also overexpressed in procaine treated model rats for behavior tests. Results showed that procaine pretreatment improved the pain behaviors of model rats upon mechanical, thermal and cold stimulations, with the best effect occurring on the 15th day post model construction (p<0.05). Procaine also inhibited JAK2 and STAT3 expression in both mRNA (p<0.05) and protein levels. Overexpression of JAK2 increased STAT3 level and reversed the improvement effects of procaine in pain behaviors (p<0.01). These findings indicate that procaine is capable of attenuating NPP, suggesting procaine is a potential therapeutic strategy for treating NPP. Its role may be associated with the inhibition on JAK2/STAT3 signaling.
