Progress of experimental research on prevention and treatment of diabetic kidney disease by traditional Chinese medicine / 中国药科大学学报

@#Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the main complications of diabetes, and also the leading cause of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD).The main clinical manifestations are albuminuria and decreased glomerular filtration rate.DKD seriously affects the quality of life of sufferers and places a huge financial burden on them. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has accumulated rich experience in treating DKD.This paper analyzed and summarized the recent treatment of DKD with traditional Chinese medicine from three aspects: active ingredients of TCM, TCM pairs and TCM prescriptions, so as to provide new ideas for the majority of researchers in experimental research.

Clinical and genetic analysis of three children patients with Kleefstra syndrome / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis of three children with unexplained developmental delay/intellectual disability (DD/ID).@*METHODS@#Peripheral blood samples were collected from the patients and subjected to chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).@*RESULTS@#Patient 1 was found to harbor a 190 kb deletion at 9q34.3, which encompassed most of EHMT1 (OMIM 607001), the key gene for Kleefstra syndrome (OMIM 610253). Patients 2 and 3 were siblings. CMA showed that they have shared four chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs) including a deletion at 9q34.3 which spanned 154 kb and 149 kb, respectively, and encompassed the EHMT1 and CACNA1B (OMIM 601012) genes. The remaining 3 CNVs were predicted to be with no clinical significance.@*CONCLUSION@#Microdeletions at 9q33.4 probably underlay the pathogenesis of DD/ID in the three children, for which EHMT1 may be the key gene.

Case-control study in pediatric septic shock with cardiomyopathy / 中国小儿急救医学

Objective:The risk factors and survival conditions of cardiomyopathy in childhood septic shock were retrospectively analyzed.Methods:Children with septic shock admitted to the PICU at Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to March 2021 were collected.The case group included children with septic shock and cardiomyopathy.The propensity score matching method was used to match children with septic shock without cardiomyopathy in a 1∶2 ratio as the control group.Basic clinical data, myocardial biomarkers, cardiac ultrasound indicators, organ function indicators and clinical outcome indicators were collected from two groups.Results:Forty-six patients were included in the case group and 92 patients in the control group.There were no significant differences in age, sex, pediatric critical care score, and basic disease between two groups.Moreover, left ventricular ejection fraction[51.0%(43.0%, 62.0%) vs.65.5%(60.6%, 69.0%)], left ventricle short-axis shortening rate (FS)[26%(21%, 33%) vs.35%(32%, 38%)], and oxygenation index(PaO 2/FiO 2)[324.0(234.3, 400.0) mmHg vs.400.0(265.8, 445.0)mmHg] in case group were lower than those in control group, while the incidence of the ST segment changes of the ECG index (21.7% vs.3.3%), lactate[3.20(1.20, 5.87)mmol/L vs.1.80(1.20, 3.40)mmol/L], and vasoactive drug score[25.14(14.84, 42.70)points vs.15.04(10.00, 26.70) points] in case group were higher than those in control group, the differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.05). The differences of PICU mortality (15.2% vs.14.1%) and 28 d mortality (29.1% vs.29.3%) between two groups were not significant ( P>0.05). The Logistic regression analysis showed that the FS was associated with cardiomyopathy occurring in septic shock[ OR (95% CI): 0.795 (0.714~0.870), P<0.001]. Children with septic shock with elevated cardiac troponin I had an increased risk of death. Conclusion:FS is an independent risk factor for cardiomyopathy in septic shock.There is no difference in survival between septic shock with and without cardiomyopathy.Cardiac troponin I is associated with the prognosis of septic shock in children.

A preliminary study of binding site on β-tubulin interacting with the new anti-cancer drug docetaxel / 国际生物医学工程杂志

Objective To study the interaction mechanism of anti-cancer drug docetaxel (DTX) andβ-tubulin, to determine the binding sites and the involved amino acids between the β-tubulin and docetaxel, and to analyze the dynamic combination process. Methods The docking binding energy and interaction sites of DTX molecules withβ-tubulin on the potential energy surface were calculated by molecular docking method. The dynamic interaction process of the low binding energy DTX with β-tubulin was simulated by molecular dynamics method. Results The results of molecular docking showed that there are three interaction sites, including N1, N2 and N3, between DTX and β-tubulin. The DTX molecules with structure of No.1, 2 and 4, which have excellent docking energy, were chose for molecular dynamics simulation. As a result, the dynamic change processes of the system complexes from non-equilibrium to equilibrium were obtained. The simulation results showed that the hydrogen bonds formed by the DTX with structure No.1 were significantly higher than those with structures No. 2 and 4. The solvent accessibility surface area of the DTX with structures No.1, 2 and 4 was higher than that of paclitaxel. Conclusion The model of DTX binding toβ-tubulin was established, which could provide theoretical guidance for the design and development of novel paclitaxel anticancer drugs.

Mucosa advancement flap anoplasty in treatment of chronic anal fissures: a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial / 中西医结合学报

Background: Anal fissure is one of the most common anal-rectum diseases, and approximately 10 percent patients with chronic anal fissure ultimately receive surgery. Relieving postoperative pain and protecting functions of the sphincter are central issues for coloproctologists. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of anoplasty in the treatment of chronic anal fissures. Design, setting, participants and interventions: In this prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial, 120 adult patients with chronic anal fissure were referred from Department of Coloproctology of Yueyang Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and Shanghai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The patients were enrolled from January 2009 to April 2010 and randomly divided into study (mucosa advancement flap anoplasty, abbreviated as anoplasty) group and control (fissurectomy) group. The two groups were assessed separately, and the main outcome measures were observed for 2 weeks, with a short-term follow-up for 6 weeks. Main outcome measures: Degree of pain, haemorrhage and anal canal pressure were observed and recorded preoperatively, and on the third day, the fourteenth day and the sixth week postoperatively. The wound healing time was also recorded. Surgical complications of the two groups were recorded and compared on the third day and the sixth week postoperatively. The curative effects associated with the surgery were analyzed on the fourteenth day and the sixth week after surgery and the therapeutic results were evaluated. Results: Three patients were dropped out due to the early discharge from hospital and losing connection (1 in study group and 2 in control group). Overall the surgery showed that the anoplasty group had better results than the fissurectomy group in the curative effect on the sixth week after operation (P0.05). There were no significant differences in relieving the anal canal pressure (P>0.05) and the surgical complications (dysuria, edema of anal margin, fever, infection, anal incontinence and anal deformation) between the two groups (P>0.05). None of the patients suffered postoperative complications by the sixth week after operation. Furthermore, there was no recurrence in either of the two groups at six weeks after operation. Conclusion: The results indicate that anoplasty for chronic anal fissures has advantages such as better therapeutic effects, less postoperative pain, a shorter healing time and no incidence of anal incontinence.

Construction, expression and in vitro biological effects of idiotype Ig Fab fragment of B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

The purpose of this study was to construct expression vectors of idiotype (Id) SmIg in patients with B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia and to express them in E.coli to obtain recombinant Id, and to investigate the effect of the protein on the proliferation and secretion of IL-2 and IFN-gamma of stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in vitro. Light chain gene and Fd fragment of heavy chain gene were inserted into fd-tet-DOG2 vector to construct fd-tet-DOG2-Fab. Fab gene was further cloned into expression vector pHEN2 to construct the soluble expression vector pHEN2-Fab. After induction by IPTG, Fab protein was purified by Ni-NTA-chromatography. MTT was used to determine the effects of purified protein on the proliferation of stimulated PBMC in vitro and the concentrations of IL-2 and IFN-gamma in the culture supernatants were detected by ELISA. The results showed that recombinant pHEN2-Fab expression vector was constructed successfully. Fab protein was expressed in positive clone after induced by IPTG and two specific bands at 24-25 kD position were observed by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Proliferation of PBMC could be induced by purified Fab and the concentrations of IL-2 and IFN-gamma in culture supernatants were increased significantly after induction. It was suggested that the expression vector of SmIg Fab fragment was constructed successfully, and expressed and secreted from E. coli. The Fab protein could induce proliferation of PBMC and promote secretion of IL-2 and IFN-gamma.

The expression vector of SmIg scFv fragment was constructed in patient with B cell chronic lymphocyte leukemia (B-CLL) and expressed in E. coli to obtain scFv fragment, and the effect of the protein on the proliferation of stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was investigated in vitro. Two pairs of primers were designed, and variable region genes of light chain and heavy chain were amplified by PCR respectively from the pGEM-T vectors previously constructed in our laboratory which containing light chain gene or Fd fragment of heavy chain gene. The PCR product was digested, purified and inserted into pHEN2 vector to construct the soluble expression vector pHEN2-scFv. After the induction by IPTG, the scFv protein was identified by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and purified by Ni-NTA-Chromatography. MTT was used to determine the effect of purified protein on the proliferation of stimulated PBMC in vitro. Plasmid PCR and restriction enzyme digestion of pHEN2-scFv revealed the pHEN2-scFv vector was constructed successfully. Id-scFv protein was expressed in positive clone after induced by IPTG. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the relative molecular weight of fusion protein was about 30 kD (1 kD= 0.9921 ku), which was consistent with the theoretically predicted value. Proliferation of PBMC could be induced by purified Id-scFv. It was suggested that the expression vector of SmIg scFv fragment was constructed successfully, and scFv protein was expressed and secreted from E. coli, which could induce proliferation of PBMC. This may lay an experimental foundation for further research of Id-HSP complex vaccine for B-CLL.

Mutation analysis of IgVH gene in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

The variable heavy chain region (VH) genes of 3 untreated patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) were cloned and analyzed. The VH family used was VH3-11, VH3-72 and VH3-33. More than 2% difference from the corresponding germline gene was detected in all the 3 obtained potential functional genes (average 16.7). Mutation pattern analysis indicated evidence of antigen selective pressure observed in 1 of 3 cases. Our findings suggested that the tumor cells originate from post-GC cells.
