Objective to measure the percentage of th22 cells and evaluate the levels of plasma interlukin-22(IL-22)in human peripheral blood, so as to determine their clinical significance in primary Sj?gren′s syndrome(pSS). Methods Patients with pSS were divided into three subgroups based on severity of labial gland involvement:mild,moderate and severe. Healthy people served as controls. the percentage of th22 cells and the lev-els of IL-22 in human peripheral blood from pSS patients and healthy controls were measured and compared. Results Compared to healthy con-trols,pSS patients had significantly higher percentage of th22 cells and higher plasma IL-22 levels(P < 0.05). Among pSS patients,the more seri-ous illness they had,the higher percentage of th22 cell and levels of IL-22 were observed. Severe patients had higher percentage of th22 cells and IL-22 levels than moderate patients(P < 0.05),and moderate patients had higher percentage of th22 cells and IL-22 levels than mild patients(P <0.05). Conclusion Increased peripheral IL-22-secreting th22 cells are detected in primary Sj?gren′s syndrome,which have a close association with disease severity. these data suggest that th22 and its released cytokine IL-22 may be considered as potential valuable biomarkers for severity of pSS,which may provide a novel therapeutic target for treatment.

A gel permeation chromatography ( GPC ) coupled with solid phase extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometric ( GPC-SPE-GC/MS ) method was developed to analyze seven kinds of organophosphate esters ( OPEs ) , including tri-n-butylphosphate, tri ( 2-chloroethyl ) phosphate, triphenyl phosphate, tris ( 2-butoxyethyl ) phosphate, tri-o-tolylphosphate, tri-m-tolylphosphate, and tri-p-tolylphosphate) in human serum. The recoveries of cleanup methods between GPC-silica/alumina column and H2 SO4-silica/sulfuric acid gel column were compared. The purification method with the GPC-silica/alumina column didn’t destroy the structure of organophosphate esters ( OPEs ) and could effectively remove some protein and lipid matrix influence in serum. The developed method was verified using the spiked blank and the spiked serum, the good recoveries and reproducibilities were achieved. The recoveries of all of OPEs in spiked blank (n=3) were all more than 75%. The recoveries of d12-TCEP and d15-TPhP in human serum samples (n=9) were 86. 3%±21. 6% and 103. 1%±16. 5%, respectively. In human serum samples (n=9), the detection ratios for TnBP, TCEP, TPhP, TBEP and m-TTP were more than 90% in all of the serum samples, p-TTP was only 30%, o-TTP was not detectable. The concentrations of TnBP, TCEP, TPhP, TBEP and m-TTP in serum were 3. 4-46. 5 ng/g lipid, 248. 6-958. 2 ng/g lipid, n. d. -4. 2 ng/g lipid, n. d. -49. 9 ng/g lipid and n. d.-23. 1 ng/g lipid, respectively.

Objective:To establish patient-derived organoid models of pleomorphic adenomas (PA) of the parotid gland and preliminarily characterize their histology, related biomarkers and functions.Methods:Fresh tumor tissue specimens were collected from surgical procedures of Oral and Maxillofacial Department. The harvested tissues were processed and cultured in a head and neck tumor organoid culture system to establish organoid models from parotid gland pleomorphic adenomas. The in vitro growth of PA organoids was recorded by light microscopy. The successfully established organoids were passaged and cryopreserved, and the cryopreserved PA organoids were revived and re-cultured to observe their viability and organoid regeneration ability. Histological characterization, as well as characterization and detection of related markers and functional proteins, were performed on the organoids, comparing them with the patient-derived tissues. Results:The constructed organoid model of pleomorphic adenoma exhibited a dense and compact three-dimensional spherical structure. Hematoxylin and eosin staining indicated morphological similarities between the organoid and its tissue of origin. Immunohistochemistry showed positive cytoplasmic staining for Calponin, cytokeratin 7, and epithelial membrane antigen in both the organoid and the source tumor tissue, suggesting consistent histopathological characteristics between the organoid and its tissue of origin. Periodic acid-Schiff staining of the organoid showed positive staining for glycogen, with positive staining located in the interior and periphery of the organoid, indicating that the organoid possessed secretory functions like the salivary gland.Conclusions:This study successfully constructed organoids of pleomorphic adenoma derived from patient samples. This model faithfully replicates the tissue morphology and biomarkers of the source tissue and exhibits biological functions associated with mucus secretion. It serves as a valuable in vitro model for studying the development and progression of salivary gland tumors.

In order to enrich the library of domestic research about new red fluorescent marker in lactic acid bacteria (LAB), we described a new fusion expression system in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 based on the pSIP vector. This system contained red fluorescent protein mCherry as a marker and bile salt hydrolase gene (bsh) as a reporter gene. Moreover, in this study, four different promoters (PsppA, PldhL, P32 and PslpA) were used to regulate the expression of the fusion protein mCherry-BSH, completing the inducible and constitutive expression in lactic acid bacteria. The recombinant protein mCherry-BSH presented activity of red fluorescence and bile salt hydrolase (BSH). The successful construction of the fusion expression system in LAB using a red fluorescent protein mCherry provides favorable conditions for the distribution, intestinal colonization and survival rate of lactic acid bacteria, so as to reveal the function mechanism of its probiotic characteristics; and the system also could lay the foundation for researches on protein expression, cellular localization and properties identification of active protein in lactic acid bacteria.
