BACKGROUND:
Acquired and primary resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) is still the bottleneck of clinical treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). STE029 is a novel anticancer drug which consists of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutarylcoenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) inhibitor and novel cancer cell membrane targeting molecular. This study aimed to investigate the reversal mechanism of EGFR-TKI resistance by STE029 in lung adenocarcinoma.
METHODS:
CCK8 test was used to test the cell viability and survival rate of EGFR mutated PC9 cell (Gefitinib sensitive), PC9/BB4 cell (acquired Gefitinib resistant), and EGFR wild type A549 cell after treatment of STE029, Gefitinib or combination of both. EdU test was applied to detect changes in cell cycle and Hoechst 33258 was applied to detect apoptosis rate in overcoming the EGFR-TKI resistance. The activity of EGFR/PI3K/Akt, cell cycle and apoptosis signal pathways were examined. In vivo, nude mice were exposed to STE029, Gefitinib and STE029+Gefitinib for 5 wk. And the the tumor volume was measured and tumor weight was obtained on the last day.
RESULTS:
(1) PC9 cells was highly sensitive to Gefitinib, while PC9/BB4 and A549 cell showed significant resistance to Gefitinib treatment; (2) STE029+Gefitinib treatment could significantly decrease the 50% inhibitory concentrarion (IC₅₀) of Gefitinib in PC9, PC9/BB4 and A549 cells (P<0.05, respectively); (3) In PC9 and PC9/BB4 cells, STE029+Gefitinib can block cell cycle and inhibit cell proliferation (P<0.001), while there was no significant difference in apoptosis rate among three drug intervention groups (P>0.05); However, apoptosis rate was increased in STE029+Gefitinib group in A549 cell (P<0.01), while no significance detected in cell proliferation (P>0.05). (4) In PC9 and PC9/BB4 cells, the combination of STE029 and Gefitinib could downregulate p-EGFR, p-Akt, p-Cyclin D1 and Cyclin D1 (P<0.001), and upregulate the expression of GSK-3β (P<0.001), and the expression of cleaved caspase-8, caspase-8 cleaved caspase-9, caspase-9 showed no difference among groups (P>0.05). In A549 cells, the combination of STE029 and Gefitinib could downregulate p-Akt (P<0.001) and upregulate cleaved caspase-8 and cleaved caspase-9 (P<0.001); (5)In vivo, the combination of STE029 and Gefitinib effectively inhibited tumor development and progression compared to STE029 alone or Gefitinib alone, with significant difference (P<0.05) in PC9 and PC9/BB4 xenografted tumor.
CONCLUSIONS
STE029 could sensitize Gefitinib by inhibiting EGFR/PI3K/Akt pathway, blocking the tumor cell cycle and proliferation and inducing apoptosis through caspase-8 and caspase-9 dependent pathway. STE029 deserves further investigations in overcoming EGFR-TKI resistance in lung cancer.

Medical microbiology is one of the compulsory courses of basic medical sciences, which lays an important theoretical foundation for the follow-up study of infectious diseases, contagions, tumors, and so on. The course of medical microbiology in our college adhered to the concept of student-centered, diversified teaching, scientific evaluation, and continuous improvement. Teaching design was a cross-link of general theories, specific chapters, clinical cases, theory and practice, and the ideological and political education throughout the curriculum. Lectures adopted the mode of offline teaching (such as flipped classroom, case analysis, and comprehensive experimental design), online assistance (such as classroom test, stage test, extracurricular homework, and questionnaire survey), and combined process evaluation. This teaching mode also reflected the deep integration of information technology and classroom teaching. With the development and construction in these years, medical microbiology has completed the renewal of curriculum resources, the construction of online question bank, the construction and design of ideological and political case bank, and process evaluation (10 points of usual score + 10 points of case study + 10 points of experimental performance + 100 points of final examination multiplied by 70%). There was no significant difference in the results of qustionnaire survey in terms of the improvement of independent learning ability, curriculum evaluation system and satisfaction feedback. Students in Batch 2019 were most satisfied with the teaching of keeping pace with the times and the guidance of positive outlook on life and values.

【Objective】 To explore the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in the genotyping of difficult blood typing samples, and to provide evidence for clinical blood transfusion. 【Methods】 Three ambiguous blood group samples, submitted to Shanghai Blood Center by Shanghai regional hospitals, were studied, of which Sample1 included the proband and his parents. Serological methods were used to perform blood group typing, direct antibody test, unexpected antibody screening and identification test. Blood group genotyping was performed by using the MALDI-TOF MS detection systeme stablished in our laboratory. Sanger sequencing was used to confirm gene mutation sites, and serological or flow methods were used to verify specific samples′ phenotype. 【Results】 Serological results indicated the existence of antibodies against high frequency antigens in sample 1 (including proband and her mother), 2 and 3. The genotyping results of MALDI-TOF MS showed that the proband of sample 1 was Di(a+ b+ ), her father was Di(a-b+ ), her mother was Di(a+ b-), sample 2 was p, and sample 3 was Jr(a-). Sequencing results of three samples were consistent with mass spectrometry typing results. Serological results showed that sample 2 had a p phenotype. The flow cytometry results suggested that sample 3 had a Jr(a-) phenotype. 【Conclusion】 For the first time, we applied MALDI-TOF MS technology to blood type genotyping of ambiguous clinical samples in China. Compared with other genotyping methods such as PCR-SSP, MALDI-TOF MS has the advantages of rapid detection, high throughput and high specificity, which would contribute to identification of difficult blood typing samples in the future, as well as rare blood group screening.

【Objective】 To investigate and analyze the polymorphism of RHD gene in RhD-negative population in Jiayuguan using molecular biological technique, so as to accurately identify RhD-negative individuals, and formulate individualized transfusion strategies. 【Methods】 The RhD negative voluntary blood donors and patients (mainly pregnant women) were recruited. After informed consent, history of blood transfusion and pregnancy of them were investigated, and samples were collected for negative D confirmation, gene sequencing as well as antibody screening and identification. 【Results】 Among the 96 samples, 73 cases were RHD gene deletion, 18 RHD*01EL.01(17 RHD1227A homozygous type and 1 RHD1227A heterozygous type), 2 weak RHD*15 type (845G/A), 1 partial D type, i. e. RHD-CE(7) -D heterozygous allele, and 2 RHD*01N.16 variant. Antibody was detected out in 4 cases, among which 2 were positive for anti-D, 1 anti-D plus anti-E, and 1 anti-Dia. 【Conclusion】 The proportion of DEL gene in RhD negative Chinese Han population in Jiayuguan is slightly lower than that in general Chinese Han population. No anti-D or RHD-HDN was observed in DEL type women due to multiple pregnancy or delivery of D positive newborns.

OBJECTIVE:
To train convolutional networks using multi-lead ECG data and classify new data accurately to provide reliable information for clinical diagnosis.
METHODS:
The data were pre-processed with a bandpass filter, and signal framing was adopted to adjust the data of different lengths to the same size to facilitate network training and prediction. The dataset was expanded by increasing the sample size to improve the detection rate of abnormal samples. A depth-wise separable convolution structure was used for more specific feature extraction for different channels of twelve-lead ECG data. We trained the two classifiers for each label using the improved DenseNet to classify different labels.
RESULTS:
The propose model showed an accuracy of 80.13% for distinguishing between normal and abnormal ECG with a sensitivity of 80.38%, a specificity of 79.91% and a F1 score of 79.35%.
CONCLUSIONS
The model proposed herein can rapidly and effectively classify the ECG data. The running time of a single dataset on GPU is 33.59 ms, which allows real-time prediction to meet the clinical requirements.
