Fifty whitespotted bamboo sharks (Chiloscyllium playgiosum) of both sexes were used to establish a large capacity variable domain of the new antigen receptor (VNAR) library with a total capacity of over 10⁹ colony-forming units (CFU). It was applied to screen VNARs against human serum albumin (HSA) and human transcription factor EB (TFEB), respectively. Meanwhile, VNAR libraries specific to HSA and TFEB with capacities above 10⁸ CFU were obtained following conventional immunization. These two approaches were systematically studied in terms of VNAR yield and composition. By comparing the VNAR sequences obtained from naïve and antigen-immunized libraries, we found that the complementary-determining region 3 (CDR3) of the former differs in composition from that of the latter. It shares a higher degree of homology with the naïve library. Meanwhile, the binding efficiency assessed by ELISA is also different between the naïve and antigen-immunized libraries. The binding of VNARs from the TFEB-immunized library appeared to surpass that observed with the naïve libraries, whereas the performance of VNARs from the HSA-immunized library indicated that both the immunized and naïve libraries for HSA had positive binding responses in polyclonal and monoclonal ELISA. The results are useful to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic products based on shark VNARs.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Fuling Zexie Decoction combined with lifestyle intervention in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) of dampness syndrome. Methods A total of 40 patients with MetS of dampness syndrome were randomly divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=20) according to a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled design. The experimental group was given oral administration of Fuling Zexie Decoction,the control group was given placebo,150 mL each time,twice a day. Both groups were given healthy lifestyle(healthy eating habits and exercise mode) education. The intervention period was 16 weeks. Traditional Chinese medicine dampness syndrome scale score and the diagnostic indexes of MetS,including waist circumference (WC),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and fasting blood glucose (FBG),were evaluated before and after treatment. Other metabolic indexes such as body mass index(BMI),total cholesterol(TC),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),uric acid(UC),as well as inflammation related indexes including C-reactive protein (CRP),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α) were also evaluated. Results A total of 33 people completed the trial,including 17 people in the experimental group and 16 people in the control group. Compared to the baseline period,FBG,BMI,LDL-C and dampness syndrome scale score in the experimental group were significantly decreased at the 8th and 16th week of intervention(P<0.05). WC was significantly decreased at the 8th week of intervention(P<0.05). CRP showed a downward trend at the 16th week of intervention(P<0.05). Moreover,SBP and IL-6 in control group decreased significantly at the 8th and 16th week of intervention(P<0.05). WC,DBP and HOMA-IR decreased significantly at the 8th week of intervention (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in other outcome indexes between the two groups at the 8th and 16th week of intervention (P>0.05). The safety indexes of all patients before and after intervention were not significantly abnormal,and no serious adverse events occurred. Conclusion This study initially shows the positive regulatory effect of Fuling Zexie Decoction combined with lifestyle on metabolism and inflammation-related indexes in people with MetS of dampness syndrome,which helps to improve the level of dampness syndrome and provides a basis for further research.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Toumai ? endoscopic robotic system in radical prostatectomy. Methods:This study was a single-center phase Ⅲ randomized controlled study. From June 2020 to January 2021, patients with prostate cancer who met the inclusion criteria in Changhai Hospital Affiliated to Naval Military Medical University were divided into the experimental group and the control group by random table method. Inclusion criteria included aged 18 to 80 years, pathologically diagnosed as prostate cancer, clinical stage ≤T 2N 0M 0. Exclusion criteria included patients requiring emergency surgery, having serious cardiovascular diseases and cannot tolerate surgery, having participated in other investigational drug or device clinical trials within the last 3 months. The experimental group used Toumai ? laparoscopic robotic system, and the continence group used the Da Vinci robotic system. The patients in both groups underwent radical prostatectomy via a transabdominal approach, which was performed by two surgeons. The clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared, related adverse events were recorded, and PSA and urinary continence were followed up one month after the operation. Results:A total of 44 patients were enrolled in this study, including 22 cases in the experimental group and 22 cases in the control group. The mean age of patients in the trial group and the control group was (67.7±7.5) years and (66.4±6.3) years, respectively. The median PSA at diagnosis was 10.5 (7.7, 23.7) ng/ ml and 13.5 (8.9, 24.7) ng/ ml, respectively. Biopsy Gleason score of 6, 7, 8 and 9 in experimental group were 13.6% (3/22), 68.2% (15/22), 4.5% (1/22) and 13.6% (3/22), respectively, and in the control group were 4.5% (1/22), 59.1% (13/22), 22.7% (5/22) and 13.6% (3/22) respectively. The middle risk and high risk group in the experimental group was 50.0% (11/22), 50.0% (11/22), and the control group was 36.4% (8/22), 63.6% (14/22). There was no statistical difference between the two groups.The operations in both groups were successfully performed. There were no conversions to open or laparoscopic surgeries, and no Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲcomplications. There was no significant difference in the estimated blood loss during the operation [(109.1±51.6)ml vs.(94.5±51.6)ml] and the blood transfusion rate [9.1%(2/22)vs. 4.5%(1/22)] in both groups. The operation time was significantly higher in the experimental group than that in the control group [164.5(130.5, 214.3) min vs. 88.0(65.3, 110.5)min, P<0.001]. The positive rate of surgical margin was 13.6% (3/22) in the experimental group and 36.4% (8/22) in the control group, respectively, showing no significant difference. The pathologic stages of pT 2, pT 3a and pT 3bin experimental group were 63.6% (14/22), 13.6% (3/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively, while those in control group were 36.3% (8/22), 40.9% (9/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively, showing no significant difference. The recovery rates of urine control in the experimental group and the control group were 22.7% (5/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively. The median PSA in the experimental group and the control group were 0.055 (0.021, 0.103) ng/ ml and 0.032 (0.010, 0.089) ng/ ml, respectively, with no statistical difference. Conclusions:The Toumai ? endoscopic robotic system can successfully perform radical prostatectomy, based on insignificant difference from Da Vinci robotic system in safety and efficacy. The short-term follow-up showed that tumor control and urinary continence have recovered well in the test group. The long-term effect of the new system on tumor control and functional recovery after radical prostatectomy needs further multi-center studies.

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with paclitaxel in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. METHODS:Totally 100 patients with advanced cervical cancer were randomly divided into observation group(50 cases)and control group(50 cases). Both groups were given 6MV linear accelerator radiotherapy combined with intra-cavitary irradiation. Based on it,control group was additionally given Cisplatin injection 20 mg/m2,d1+Paclitaxel injection 35 mg/m2,d1 intravenously within 3 h. Observation group was additionally given Nedaplatin for injection 20 mg/m2,d1+Paclitaxel injection intravenously(same usage and dosage as control group). A treatment course lasted for a week,and both groups received 6 courses of treatment. Short-term efficacies of 2 groups were observed,and the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGF-A), VEGF-C and VEGF-D,lymphatic microvessel density(LVD),microvessel density(MVD),toxic reaction were also observed be-fore and after treatment. RESULTS: Total response rate(52.00% vs. 32.00%)and disease control rate(86.00% vs. 66.00%)of ob-servation group were significantly higher than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). After treatment,the levels of VEGF-A,VEGF-C and VEGF-D,LVD,MVD in 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment,and the obser-vation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of thrombocyto-penia in observation group was significantly higher than control group,and the incidence of nausea and vomiting was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Nedaplatin combined with paclitaxel can im-prove short-term efficacy of patients with advanced cervical cancer,reduce gastrointestinal reaction,VEGF level and inhibit the generation of tumor vessel,but great importance should be attached to platelet toxic reaction.

BACKGROUND: For decades, liposome drug carrier has been used to enhance drug stability and efficacy, reduce drug toxicity and adverse effects. However, they fail to provide long-term delivery due to insufficient stability. Studies have demonstrated that silica is not toxic, with chemically inert and biological compatibility, and can be used as modified material. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the silica coated liposome and investigate the controlled release property. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: In vitro observation. The study was performed at the Nanomedicine and Biosensor Laboratory, Biomedical Engineering Center, Harbin Institute of Technology from May 2007 to June 2008. MATERIALS: Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) was purchased from Nanjing Kangsente Chemical Engineering Company; tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) was purchased from Aldrich, USA. Doxorubicin (DOX) was purchased from Beijing Huafeng United Technology Company; Sephadex G-50 was purchased from Amersham Biosciences, Sweden. All other chemical agents were of analytical purity. METHODS: Liposome was formed from DPPC following the precipitation of silica by sol-gel method. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Zeta-potential and dynamic light scanning were used for zeta-potential measurement and particle size distribution; transmission electron microscopy was used to collect the image of particle morphology; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to display chemical characteristics of Si-O-Si structure; Spectrophotofluorimetry was used to determine DOX regression equation and was further used for calculation in drug encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release.　RESULTS: ①Silica coated liposome was successfully prepared. ②FTIR proofed the presence of Si-O-Si at 1 166, 1 080, 859 and 526 cm-1. ③The DOX encapsulated silica coated liposome had encapsulation efficiency of 72.4%. ④Drug release profiles showed that sustained release of DOX was achieved after modification of silica on liposome. CONCLUSION: With Si-O-Si as protective layer, the liposome has increased stability and prolonged drug release.
