RESUMO

Objective:To study the clinical features and genotypes of neonatal Glanzmann thrombasthenia(NGT).Methods:A male neonate with NGT admitted to the Department of Neonatology of our hospital was retrospectively reviewed. CNKI, Wangfang database, VIP, the Chinese Medical Journal Full Text database, PubMed and Embase database were searched using key words '(neonate OR newborn) AND (Glanzmann thrombasthenia)' both in English and Chinese. The clinical features and genotypes of NGT were summarized and analyzed.Results:A male full-term neonate was admitted to our hospital for mass on the forehead and ecchymosis and petechiae on the body within half an hour after birth. He gradually developed subgaleal hemorrhage and severe anemia. Platelet count, mean platelet volume and coagulation functions were normal. The platelet aggregation test indicated decreased platelet aggregation rate induced by arachidonic acid and adenosine diphosphate. Genetic testing revealed two heterozygous mutations in the patient's ITGA2B gene: NM_000419.4: c.886G>A(p.Gly296Arg) and NM_000419.4: c.2855dup(p.Phe953Valfs*83). A total of 42 literature involving 44 patients (our case included) with NGT were retrieved. 33 cases (75.0%) of NGT showed ecchymosis or petechiae on the first day after birth. For 13 cases with detailed information, 5 cases with severe anemia were given erythrocyte and plasma transfusion and platelet transfusion was given in 1 case. 4 cases had homozygous variants and 4 cases showed compound heterozygous variants. 10 cases had follow-up records, including 2 cases without any bleeding and 8 cases with varying degrees of bleeding during follow-up. No deaths were reported.Conclusions:Neonates with ecchymosis and petechiae in the early postnatal period should be suspected of NGT. Blood transfusion is preferred when the indication for transfusion is met.

RESUMO

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic disabling joint disease, and currently there is no effective treatment for the cause. Necroptosis plays a key role in many diseases, and receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3) is a key regulator during necroptosis process. Studies have shown that the expression level of RIP3 was significantly upregulated in human and mouse OA degenerative cartilage tissues, suggesting the occurrence of necroptosis. However, the specific pathophysiological role of RIP3 in cartilage is still unclear. This study intends to sequence and analyze the transcriptome of chondrocytes before and after RIP3 overexpression, and explore the specific functional mechanism of RIP3 in OA pathogenesis. RNA sequencing results showed that overexpression of RIP3 induced upregulation of 244 genes and downregulation of 277 genes in chondrocytes. Sixteen candidate target genes were screened out by constructing gene co-expression network for further verification at mRNA level, and the results suggested that RIP3 had the most significant inductive effect on the expression of phosphoinositide-3kinase, regulatory subunit 5 (Pik3r5), integrin subunit beta 3 (Itgb3) and MYB proto-oncogene like 2 (Mybl2). Results from CCK-8 and lactate dehydrogenase activity analysis showed that silencing the expression of Itgb3 by siRNA significantly rescued chondrocyte viability decline and necroptosis induced by RIP3, and it also inhibited the upregulating effect of RIP3 on the expression of catabolism-related genes Mmp1, Mmp13 and Il6, as well as the downregulating effect of RIP3 on the expression of anabolism-related genes Acan, Col2a1 and Sox9. This study has demonstrated that RIP3 promotes chondrocyte necrosis and cartilage matrix metabolism disorders by upregulating the expression of Itgb3 in chondrocytes, and ultimately leads to cartilage degeneration. These findings provided potential novel targets for the clinical treatment of OA, and further clarified the pathophysiological significance of necroptosis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Dengue is an arthropod-borne viral disease with a majority of asymptomatic individuals and clinical manifestations varying from mild fever to severe and potentially lethal forms. An increasing number of genetic studies have outlined the association between host genetic variations and dengue severity. Genes associated to viral recognition and entry, as well as those encoding mediators of the immune response against infection are strong candidates for association studies. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the association between MBL2, CLEC5A, ITGB3 and CCR5 genes and dengue severity in children. METHODS A matched case-control study was conducted and 19 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated. FINDINGS No associations were observed in single SNP analysis. However, when MBL2 SNPs were combined in haplotypes, the allele rs7095891G/rs1800450C/ rs1800451C/rs4935047A/rs930509G/rs2120131G/rs2099902C was significantly associated to risk of severe dengue under α = 0.05 (aOR = 4.02; p = 0.02). A second haplotype carrying rs4935047G and rs7095891G alleles was also associated to risk (aOR = 1.91; p = 0.04). MAIN CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to demonstrate the association between MBL2 haplotypes and dengue severity in Brazilians including adjustment for genetic ancestry. These results reinforce the role of mannose binding lectin in immune response to DENV.

RESUMO

Objective@#To investigate the molecular pathogenesis for a patient with Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT). @*Methods@#The peripheral blood of a patient with Glanzmann′s thrombasthenia was collected, and the genetic mutations were detected by gene sequencing technology. The mutant plasmids were prepared by PCR site-directed mutagenesis and transfected into CHO-K1 cells of Chinese hamster ovary to construct in vitro eukaryotic expression system. The expressions of αⅡb and β3 protein subunits in CHO-K1 cells were detected by western blot. The expression levels of αⅡb and β3 in cellular membrane and cytoplasm of CHO-K1 cells were detected by flow cytometry. The expression and distribution of αⅡb and β3 in CHO-K1 cells were observed by immunofluorescent labeling under microscope. @*Results@#This patient was diagnosed with type Ⅱ GT. Gene sequencing revealed two mutations in ITGB3 gene which has not been reported in the literature. ITGB3 c.1495 T>C missense mutation resulted in replacement of cysteine no.499 by arginine (p.C499R). ITGB3 c.1728 delC code shift mutation resulted in a change in the amino acid synthesis initiated by the β3 protein subunit serine no.577 and terminated by the 92nd amino acid following these changes. The results of western blotting showed that the synthesis and expression of primary structures of αⅡb and β3 were detectable in the lysates of mutant CHO-K1 cells. The results of flow cytometry showed that no expression of β3 on the surface and intracellular of mutant CHO-K1 cells was observed. Under fluorescence microscopy no distribution of β3 protein subunit was displayed in mutant CHO-K1 cells. @*Conclusion@#The mutation of ITGB3 c.1728 del C or ITGB3 c.1495 T>C should be relevant to the cause of GT in this patient. The mutation of ITGB3 c.1728 del C and ITGB3 c.1495 T>C seems not to affect the formation of the primary structure of β3 protein subunit, but did affect the formation of its high-level structure.
