To obtain the P8 protein of Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV) with biological activity, its outer coat protein gene S8 was expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells using the baculovirus expression system. The S8 gene was subcloned into the pFastBacTM1 vector, to produce the recombinant baculovirus transfer vector pFB-S8. After transformation, pFB-S8 was introduced into the competent cells (E. coli DH10Bac) containing a shuttle vector, Bacmid, generating the recombinant bacmid rbpFB-S8. After being infected by recombinant baculovirus rvpFB-S8 at different multiplicities of infection, Sf9 cells were collected at different times and analyzed by SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. The expression level of the P8 protein was highest between 48-72 h after transfection of Sf9 cells. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that P8 protein of RGDV formed punctate structures in the cytoplasm of Sf9 cells.

Conclusion The levels of peripheral blood CD13+CD4+CD25hi Treg cells are higher in DLBCL patients, which has a close relationship between the expression of CD13+CD4+CD25hi Treg cells and clinical stage and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the correlation between hemoglobin level and health status of the elderly living in communities in Beijing.Methods A random cluster sampling method was used to select residents living in communities of Beijing city,and a cross-sectional study was carried out by questionnaires,scene testing and blood sample collection.WHO-formulated criteria were applied for diagnosing anemia.The health indicators in questionnaires included visual impairment,physical disability,decreased health,self-care,fatigue,anorexia,independent walking distance,exercise frequency,intelligence status and computing power.Results Complete information was obtained in a total of 1 948 elderly people,including 790 cases of male and 1 158 cases of female,with an average age of(73.9±6.1)years and a median age of 74 years(65-100).The mean level of hemoglobin in the 1 948 people was(135.65 ± 14.48) g/L,with (142.56 ± 15.56) g/L in male and (130.95 ± 11.53) g/L in female.Hemoglobin level was significantly lower in female than in men (t =54.739,P＜ 0.01).Hemoglobin level was decreased with aging,and negatively associated with appetite,physical strength,walk assistance,visual acuity and physical ability(r=-0.055,-0.067,-0.071,-0.114,-0.095;P =0.022,0.005,0.004,0.000,0.000),while positively associated with health status,activities in daily life,athletic ability,exercise frequency and intelligence (r =0.073,0.126,0.122,0.066,0.124;P =0.002,0.000,0.000,0.006,0.000).Conclusions The hemoglobin level of the elderly decreases with aging and is associated with health status and quality of life in the elderly,which should be taken care seriously.

Objective:To investigate the expression of B7-H3 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its prognostic significance.Methods:The paraffin-embedded tumor tissues of 103 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL in Linyi Central Hospital from May 2013 to May 2019 were detected by using immunohistochemistry. The association of the expression of B7-H3 protein with the clinicopathological features, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of DLBCL patients was analyzed. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the factors affecting PFS and OS.Results:The positive rate of B7-H3 protein in patients with DLBCL was 68.0% (70/103). There were no statistically significant differences in the positive rate of B7-H3 protein among patients with different gender, age, clinical staging, international prognostic index (IPI) score, treatment effect, B symptoms, pathological type and other clinicopathological characteristics (all P > 0.05). The 5-year PFS and 5-year OS rates were 24% and 32% in all patients, the 5-year PFS rates were 47% and 14% in B7-H3 negative and B7-H3 positive patients, respectively ( P < 0.01); and 5-year OS rates were 50% and 24% in B7-H3 negative and B7-H3 positive patients, respectively ( P < 0.001). Multi-factor Cox regression analysis showed that B7-H3 positive was an adverse affecting factor of PFS ( HR = 2.685, 95% CI 1.503 - 4.789, P = 0.001) and OS ( HR = 2.262, 95% CI 1.248 - 4.098, P = 0.007). Conclusions:The moderate and high expression of B7-H3 may be related to the poor prognosis of DLBCL patients.

Objective To evaluate clinical efficacy on treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis by botulinum toxin type A injection and to introduce a corresponding method evolved from Minor's starch iodine test with MATLAB analysis.Methods Ten patients were involved in the study and evaluated preoperatively by both Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) and Minor's starch iodine test with MATLAB analysis.All cases were treated with botulinum toxin type A injection dosed by 50 U on one side focally and evaluated postoperatively by both above mentioned methods with interval of 1 month and by HDSS only of 6 months.Results The clinical efficiency by the therapy evaluated by HDSS accounted for 100％ and 60％ postoperatively with intervals of 1 month and 6 months respectively.By the Minor's starch iodine test with MATLAB analysis,all patients showed no statistical difference between two matched sides preoperatively (P ＞ 0.05),while postoperatively statistical difference was observed between the treated side and the control (P＜0.05) and also between the treated group and zero control (P＜0.05).Conclusions The clinical efficacy of botulinum toxin type A injection in treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis is highlighted in short term.The evolved Minor's starch iodine test combined with MATLAB analysis serves as an alternative which facilitates operability and objectivity evaluating the therapy outcomes on hyperhidrosis.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of anemia and its influencing factors in the elderly population dwelling in urban communities in Beijing.Methods:A random cluster sampling method was adopted to select the elderly people of communities in Beijing, and cross-sectional research was conducted through questionnaire surveys, field tests and blood sample collection.The criteria for diagnosing anemia were from WHO standards, and the health evaluation indicators in the questionnaire survey included demographic data and eating habits, socio-economic information, information on enjoying health services, health and physical fitness and other information.Blood samples were drawn for routine blood tests and biochemical tests.Results:A total of 1 947 elderly people aged 65 years and above were investigated, including 789 males(40.5%)and 1 158 females(59.5%). Among the 1 947 survey subjects, 288 elderly people had anemia, with the prevalence of anemia of 14.79%(288/1 947). The prevalence of anemia was 16.35%(129/789)in males and 13.73%(159/1 158)in females.There was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of anemia between male and female( χ2=2.760, P=0.097). Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting anemia.The results showed that the higher age( OR=1.055, P=0.000), the higher frequency of meat-eating( OR=1.353, P=0.046), the lower frequency of fruit-eating( OR=0.759, P=0.048), the worse health status of cohabitants( OR=0.757, P=0.037), the lower BMI( OR=0.905, P=0.001)and the lower exercise frequency( OR=0.769, P=0.012)were correlated to the higher anemia risk in the elderly population dwelling in urban communities in Beijing. Conclusions:The prevalence of anemia is relatively high in the elderly in Beijing communities.According to our findings, older people should reduce the frequency of eating meat, while ensuring nutritional intake, increase the intake of fruits and take appropriate exercises to reduce the prevalence of anemia.

BACKGROUND: Autophagy plays a crucial role in chemotherapy resistance of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Hence, autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG5), an essential molecule involved in autophagy regulation, is presumably associated with recurrence of TNBC. This study was aimed to investigate the potential influence of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in ATG5 on the disease-free survival (DFS) of early-stage TNBC patients treated with anthracycline- and/or taxane-based chemotherapy. METHODS: We genotyped ATG5 SNP rs473543 in a cohort of 316 TNBC patients treated with anthracycline- and/or taxane-based chemotherapy using the sequenom's MassARRAY system. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis were used to analyze the association between ATG5 rs473543 genotypes and the clinical outcome of TNBC patients. RESULTS: Three genotypes, AA, GA, and GG, were detected in the rs473543 of ATG5 gene. The distribution of ATG5 rs473543 genotypes was significantly different between patients with and without recurrence (P = 0.024). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients carrying A allele of ATG5 rs473543 had an increased risk of recurrence and shorter DFS compared with those carrying the variant genotype GG in rs473543 (P = 0.034). In addition, after adjusting for clinical factors, multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that the AA/GA genotype of rs473543 was an independent predictor for DFS (hazard risk [HR], 1.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-2.87; P = 0.034). In addition, DFS was shorter in node-negative patients with the presence of A allele (AA/GA) than in those with the absence of A allele (P = 0.027). CONCLUSION ATG5 rs473543 genotypes may serve as a potential marker for predicting recurrence of early-stage TNBC patients who received anthracycline-and/or taxane-based regimens as adjuvant chemotherapy.
