Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the effects of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSC) and their conditioned medium on proliferation, migration and apoptosis of human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) polyploid A549 cells.Methods:A549 cells in logarithmic phase were selected. After induction treatment with 1 μmol/L docetaxel for 24 h, DMEM/F12 medium with 10% fetal bovine serum was used to culture the cells for 3 d, finally the polyploid A549 cells model was successfully established. After finishing the separation and culture of hUC-MSC, hUC-MSC conditioned medium was prepared. Normally cultured polyploid A549 cells were treated as the control group, conditioned medium cultured polyploid A549 cells were treated as the conditioned medium group. hUC-MSC was co-cultured with polyploid A549 cells, and the ratio of the total number of cells was 2:1 and 5:1, respectively, which were recorded as MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group. Cells in each group were continually cultured for 48 h or 72 h. Proliferation and apoptosis of polyploid A549 cells in each group were detected by using flow cytometry, cell migration ability was detected by using Transwell assay, and the expressions of migration and apoptosis-related proteins were detected by using Western blotting.Results:Polyploid A549 cells model was successfully established and hUC-MSC was cultured separately. The result of cell proliferation detected by flow cytometry showed that at 48 h, the mean fluorescence intensity of the control group, conditioned medium group, MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group was 1 695±305, 2 020±85, 1 259±35 and 1 356±33, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 14.00, P < 0.05); at 72 h, the mean fluorescence intensity of the control group, conditioned medium group, MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group was 1 052±77, 1 309±24, 864±201 and 1 103±237, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 3.90, P > 0.05). The result of Transwell assay showed that at 48 h, the number of cell migration in the control group, conditioned medium group, MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group was 52±9, 57±12, 68±8 and 75±11, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( F = 32.16, P < 0.05); the number of cell migration in each experimental group was all higher than that in the control group (all P < 0.05). The percentage of apoptotic cells in the control group, conditioned medium group, MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group was (15.53±4.27)%, (13.77±1.75)%, (3.60±0.50)% and (2.33±0.06)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 182.36, P < 0.05); there was no statistically significant difference between the control group and conditioned medium group ( P > 0.05); there were statistically significant differences between MSC 1 group and the control group, MSC 2 group and the control group (both P < 0.05). Western blotting results showed that compared with the control group, the expression of migration-related protein matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9) was increased, the expression of pro-apoptotic protein bax was reduced, the expression of anti-apoptotic protein bcl-xL was increased in conditioned medium group, MSC 1 group and MSC 2 group. Conclusions:hUC-MSC can improve the migration and anti-apoptotic ability of polyploid A549 cells, suggesting that hUC-MSC may affect the survival of tumor cells during the process of chemotherapy damage and repair.

Lipid nanoparticle (LNP) is commonly used to deliver mRNA vaccines. Currently, LNP optimization primarily relies on screening ionizable lipids by traditional experiments which consumes intensive cost and time. Current study attempts to apply computational methods to accelerate the LNP development for mRNA vaccines. Firstly, 325 data samples of mRNA vaccine LNP formulations with IgG titer were collected. The machine learning algorithm, lightGBM, was used to build a prediction model with good performance (R ² > 0.87). More importantly, the critical substructures of ionizable lipids in LNPs were identified by the algorithm, which well agreed with published results. The animal experimental results showed that LNP using DLin-MC3-DMA (MC3) as ionizable lipid with an N/P ratio at 6:1 induced higher efficiency in mice than LNP with SM-102, which was consistent with the model prediction. Molecular dynamic modeling further investigated the molecular mechanism of LNPs used in the experiment. The result showed that the lipid molecules aggregated to form LNPs, and mRNA molecules twined around the LNPs. In summary, the machine learning predictive model for LNP-based mRNA vaccines was first developed, validated by experiments, and further integrated with molecular modeling. The prediction model can be used for virtual screening of LNP formulations in the future.

Objective:To study the migration of polyploid tumor cells induced by docetaxel, the characteristics of epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and the killing effect of immune cells on them, in order to explore the potential role of polyploid tumor cells in tumor recurrence.Methods:The human non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells were treated with 1 μmol/L docetaxel for 24 h, and the cells were collected as Doc 1 d group. After drug removal, the cells were cultured in fresh and complete medium for 3 or 5 days, then the cells were collected as Doc 3 d group or Doc 5 d group respectively. The A549 cells were treated with DMSO for 24 h as control group. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect cell morphology, flow cytometry was used to analyze cell ploidy, scratch test was used to detect cell migration, Western blotting was used to detect the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition related proteins, and lactate dehydrogenase release method was used to evaluate the killing activity of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells.Results:Compared with the control group, most of the cells in the Doc 1 d group, Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group were apoptotic, a few of the surviving cells were significantly larger, and the nucleus was polynuclear. The proportions of polyploid cell subset (DNA content > 4N) in the control group, Doc 1 d group, Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group were (1.93±0.55)%, (22.97±2.37)%, (51.30±12.51)% and (67.87±8.31)% respectively, and the difference among the four groups was statistically significant ( F=26.521, P<0.001). The proportion of polyploid cell subset in Doc 1 d group, Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.001). With the prolongation of withdrawal time, the proportion of polyploid cell subset in Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group was significantly higher than that in Doc 1 d group ( P=0.009; P=0.004). After 24 h and 48 h culture, the wound healing rates of the control group were both 100%, and the wound healing rates of the Doc 3 d group were (39.10±2.12)% and (46.13±5.32)% respectively, with no significant difference ( t=2.126, P=0.051). Compared with the control group at 24 h and 48 h, the cell migration abilities of Doc 3 d group were significantly lower ( t=49.756, P<0.001; t=30.825, P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the expression of E-cadherin protein decreased gradually in the Doc 1 d group, Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group, the expression of Vimentin protein increased gradually, and the expressions of Snail protein and N-cadherin protein did not change significantly. The killing efficiencies of CIK cells against the cells of the control group, Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group were (27.27±1.91)%, (17.87±2.35)%, (9.47±0.51)% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=11.294, P<0.001). The killing efficiency of Doc 3 d group and Doc 5 d group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P=0.004; P<0.001). The killing efficiency of Doc 5 d group was significantly lower than that of Doc 3 d group ( P=0.003). Conclusion:The migration ability of polyploid tumor cells induced by docetaxel is weakened, but epithelial-mesenchymal transition is likely to occur, and the killing effect of immune cells on them is reduced.

Objective:To investigate the proliferation and apoptosis characteristics of polyploid non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell model induced by docetaxel (Doc), and to analyze the potential role of polyploid tumor cells in chemotherapy resistance and tumor recurrence.Methods:NSCLC A549 cells were treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or 1 μmol/L Doc for 24 h. After drug removal, the cells were cultured in complete medium until the third day or the 5th day, and then they were recorded as the control group, Doc 24 h group, Doc 24 h+ 3 d group, Doc 24 h + 5 d group, respectively. The cell morphology was detected by using immunofluorescence staining. Flow cytometry was used to determine cell ploidy and cell cycle. Dil labeling and CFSE labeling were applied to detect cell proliferation. Flow cytometry by Annexin-V/PI double labeling was used to detect apoptosis. The changes of cyclin and apoptotic protein were analyzed by using Western blot.Results:Immunofluorescence staining results showed that compared with the control group, the volume of a small number of surviving cells in Doc 24 h group was increased slightly and the cells showed multinuclear status; while the cell volume in Doc 24 h+ 3 d group and Doc 24 h+ 5 d group continued to increase, and the nucleus remained multinuclear. The results of cell ploidy analysis also showed that the percentage of polyploid cell subsets was (3.40±0.95)%, (20.80±2.87)% in Doc 24 h group, (55.67±3.85)% in Doc 24 h+3 d group and (76.20±2.51)% in Doc 24 h+5 d group. With the prolongation of withdrawal time, the percentage of polyploid cell subsets was increased, and the difference was statistically significant ( F= 478.054, P < 0.05). The percentage of G 1 and S phase cell subsets in Doc 24 h group was lower than that in the control group, and the percentage of G 2/M phase cell subsets was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (both P < 0.05). The protein expression level of cdc2, P-cdc2 (Thr14), P-cdc2 (Tyr15), P-cyclin B1 (Ser128), P-cyclin B1 (Ser147) in the cells of the control group, Doc 24 h group, Doc 24 h+ 3 d group and Doc 24 h+ 5 d group was down-regulated in sequence, while the expression level of cyclin B1 was up-regulated, and cdc25c was down-regulated in Doc 24 h + 3 d group and Doc 24 h+ 5 d group. Dil staining results showed that the fluorescence of cell-labeled Dil in Doc 24 h group, Doc 24 h+ 3 d group and Doc 24 h + 5 d group did not decrease significantly. CFSE staining showed that the fluorescence intensity of CFSE labeled by polyploid A549 cells did not change significantly with the prolonged withdrawal time. Annexin-V/PI double staining showed that the percentage of apoptotic cell subsets in Doc 24 h group was higher than that in the control group ( P < 0.05), but the percentage of apoptotic cell subsets in Doc 24 h + 3 d group and Doc 24 h + 5 d group was lower than that in Doc 24 h group, while there was no statistically significant difference when compared with the control group ( P > 0.05). Western blot results showed that the expression of bcl-xl and mcl-1 in the control group, Doc 24 h group, Doc 24 h + 3 d group and Doc 24 h + 5 d group was up-regulated in sequence, while the expression of bax and bak in Doc 24 h + 3 d group and Doc 24 h + 5 d group was up-regulated, but down-regulated in Doc 24 h+5 d group. Conclusions:Doc can induce polyploidy of A549 cells in vitro. The cell cycle is blocked in G 2/M phase. After doc treatment, the proliferation of A549 cells is significantly decreased, and the apoptosis of A549 cells is promoted. However, with the prolongation of withdrawal time, apoptosis resistance occurs, and the expression levels of corresponding pro-apoptosis and anti-apoptosis proteins show significant changes. This may be helpful for polyploid tumor cells to produce drug resistance and tumor recurrence after chemotherapy intervention.

Schisandra chinensis, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been used to treat sleep disorders. Zebrafish sleep/wake behavioral profiling provides a high-throughput platform to screen chemicals, but has never been used to study extracts and components from TCM. In the present study, the ethanol extract of Schisandra chinensis and its two main lignin components, schisandrin and schisandrin B, were studied in zebrafish. We found that the ethanol extract had bidirectional improvement in rest and activity in zebrafish. Schisandrin and schisandrin B were both sedative and active components. We predicted that schisandrin was related to serotonin pathway and the enthanol extract of Schisandra chinensis was related to seoronin and domapine pathways using a database of zebrafish behaviors. These predictions were confirmed in experiments using Caenorhabditis elegans. In conclusion, zebrafish behavior profiling could be used as a high-throughput platform to screen neuroactive effects and predict molecular pathways of extracts and components from TCM.

OBJECTIVETo establish the median of serum markers for second trimester screening in Qingdao region and to assess the influence of median correction on the performance of screening.

METHODSMaternal serum alpha-fetoproteins (AFP), human chorionic gonadotrophin, free beta subunit (β -HCG) and unconjugated oestriol (uE3) were assayed for prenatal screening of 18 188 singleton pregnancies at 15-20(+ 6) weeks gestation from January 2009 to July 2010. The median of serum markers was calculated based on above results and applied for risk estimation in screening for fetal aneuploidy from August 2010 to March 2011. The screening performance, specified in terms of detection rates (DRs), false positive rates (FPRs) and odds of being affected given a positive result (OAPR) were compared between the two groups. The risks of 45 affected pregnancies detected during the study were estimated with both Caucasian and corrected medians.

RESULTSThe average level of AFP in local pregnancies was similar to that of the Caucasian population, whilst β -HCG and uE3 were respectively 11% and 33% higher than those of Caucasians. The multiple of median (MoM) value was between 0.94 and 1.02 for the dataset based on the corrected median. At a cut-off of l in 270, FPR has decreased from 5.2% to 4.9%, and DR of Down syndrome has increased from 60% to 69.2%, and OAPR has increased from 1:79 to 1:59 when evaluating risk based on the corrected median. For the 45 affected pregnancies, three Down syndrome pregnancies could be missed because their risk estimates were lower than the cut-off level based on Caucasian median.

CONCLUSIONIt is useful to establish and apply population and laboratory-specific medians in order to improve the performance of prenatal screening and diagnosis.
