Methods In 70 patients with transcatheter closure of ASD,echocardio?graphic examinations were made different time intervals after the closure to calculate right cardiac morpnology and function. Results After closure ASD in different time intervals, the size of RAEDd1, RAEDd2, RVEDd1, RVEDd2, RVEDd3, Inferior Vena Cava and RIMP, RVEF, TAPSE and FAC were obviously decreased(P<0.01)between two groups. All events were obviously decreased compared precious function(P < 0.01)and the interaction of the time (P < 0.01). Conclusion The construction of right ventricular narrows gradually and the function recovers after transcatheter closure of ASD in a year and those who did not become worse.

Objective:To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissue and its effect on the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer cells by regulating miR-200a-3p.Methods:The relative expression levels of CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by TCGA database. Human bladder cancer cells UM-UC-3 were selected, and the cells were divided into negative control group and CALCOCO1 group, and NC plasmid and CALCOCO1 plasmid were transfected into UM-UC-3 cells respectively. The expression level of CALCOCO1 in each group was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The proliferation and migration ability of UM-UC-3 cells were detected by MTT assay and Transwell migration assay. Bioinformatics technology was used to predict and dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments to verify the targeting relationship between CALCOCO1 and miR-200a-3p. The expression levels of miR-200a-3p in UM-UC-3 cells in each group were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of UM-UC-3 cells proliferation and migration phenotype in each group. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and repeated measurement analysis of variance was used for comparison at different time. Results:Compared with adjacent tissues, the relative expression level of CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissues was significantly lower, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.01). The relative expression of CALCOCO1 in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group and negative control group was 9.66±2.51 and 1.07±0.59, respectively. The relative expression level of CALCOCO1 in CALCOCO1 group was significantly higher than that in negative control group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, the proliferation activity of UM-UC-3 cells in the CALCOCO1 group was decreased ( P<0.05), and the migration number of UM-UC-3 cells was significantly decreased ( P<0.01). CALCOCO1 had a binding site with miR-200a-3p ( P<0.01). The relative expression of miR-200a-3p in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group and negative control group was 1.02 ± 0.31 and 5.79 ± 1.68, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, the expression levels of proliferation phenotype proteins CCNB1, CCNE1 and CCND2 in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group decreased, and the expression levels of migration phenotype proteins FOXC2 and Fibronectin decreased. Conclusion:The expression of CALCOCO1 is down-regulated in bladder cancer tissue, promoting the expression of CALCOCO1 can inhibit the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer UM-UC-3 cells through targeted down-regulation of miR-200a-3p expression.

Objective To investigate the effect of solasonine,an active component of Solanum nigrum,on proliferation and apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer PC9 cells.Methods PC9 cells were treated with 2,5,10,15,20,or 25 μmol/L solasonine,and the changes in cell proliferation were examined using CCK-8 assay.Tetramethyl rhodamine ethyl ester(TMRE)was used to detect the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential,and caspase-3/7 detection kit and GreenNuc? caspase-3/Annexin V-mCherry kit for live cell were used to analyze the changes in caspase-3 of the cells.Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was employed to analyze the apoptosis rate of the cells.The effect of PTEN inhibitors on solasonine-induced cell apoptosis was examined by detecting apoptosis-related protein expressions using Western blotting.Results Solasonine treatment for 24,48,and 72 h significantly lowered the viability of PC9 cells.The cells treated with solasonine for 24 h showed significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and increased cell apoptosis with enhanced caspase-3/7 and caspase-3 activities and expression of cleaved caspase-3.Solasonine treatment significantly decreased phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt,increased the protein expressions of PTEN and Bax,and lowered the expression of Bcl-2 protein in the cells.Conclusion Solasonine inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of PC9 cells by regulating the Bcl-2/Bax/caspase-3 pathway and its upstream proteins.

Influenza B virus (IBV) is a segmented negative-strand RNA virus, which often causes local outbreak or seasonal epidemic along with influenza A virus (IAV) in the world. It is pathogenic to children, teenagers and elderly people and has a higher mortality rate in children and adolescents, so it poses a serious threat to public health and health. IBV is more likely to cause complications than IAV and the disease burden of IBV even exceeds IAV in the epidemic season. Recently, especially after winter of 2017, IBV has become the dominant strain in many areas of our country and seriously affects people's health. In view of this, this article reviews the structure, epidemiology, immunology and prevention of IBV, aiming at enhancing public's perceptions of the virus and providing reference for making strategies for prevention and control of influenza B.

This study aimed to explore the mechanism of how African swine fever virus (ASFV) I226R protein inhibits the cGAS-STING signaling pathway. We observed that I226R protein (pI226R) significantly inhibited the cGAS-STING-mediated type Ⅰ interferons and the interferon-stimulated genes production by dual-luciferase reporter assay system and real-time quantitative PCR. The results of co-immunoprecipitation assay and confocal microscopy showed that pI226R interacted with cGAS. Furthermore, pI226R promoted cGAS degradation through autophagy-lysosome pathway. Moreover, we found that pI226R decreased the binding of cGAS to E3 ligase tripartite motif protein 56 (TRIM56), resulting in the weakened monoubiquitination of cGAS, thus inhibiting the activation of cGAS and cGAS-STING signaling. In conclusion, ASFV pI226R suppresses the antiviral innate immune response by antagonizing cGAS, which contributes to an in-depth understanding of the immune escape mechanism of ASFV and provides a theoretical basis for the development of vaccines.
