Objective:To explore the changes of number of CD4+ CD25 + foxp3 + regulatory T cells (Treg)and natural killer cells (NK)in the peripheral immune organs and tumor tissue of the murine models of lung cancer,and to clarify their effects on the development of lung cancer.Methods:The C57BL/6 mice were divided into Lewis lung carcinoma cells (LLC)injection group and normal control group.The mice in LLC injection group were injected with LLC subcutaneously in the armpit to establish the tumor models,while the mice in normal control group were injected with the same amount of saline.The number of CD4+ CD25 + T cells,CD4+ CD25 + foxp3 + Tregs in the spleen,lymph nodes and lung cancer tissues,and the number of NK cells in the spleen tissue were labeled by cell surface or intracellular antibody staining,and detected by flow cytometry.Results:The ratios of CD4+ CD25 + T cells to CD4+ T cells,foxp3+ cells to CD4+ CD25 + T cells,and the number of CD4+ CD25 + foxp3 + Treg in the spleen and lymph nodes of the mice in LLC injection group were increased significantly compared with normal control group (P <0.05 or P <0.01).Moreover,the ratios of CD4+ CD25 + T cells to CD4+ T cells and foxp3 + cells to CD4+ CD25 + T cells in the tumor tissue were significantly higher than those in the spleen and lymph nodes of the mice in LLC injection group.However,the ratio of NK cells in the spleen tissue of the mice in lung cancer group was significantly decreased compared with normal control group (P <0.05).Conclusion:The increase of ratio and the number of Treg cells and the decrease of ratio of NK cells in the main immune organs of lung cancer mice may promote the development of tumor and inhibit the immune response to cancer cells in vivo .

Objective:To investigate the change of nature killer T cell(NKT)and myeloid derived suppressor cells(MDSC) during the development of mouse lung tumor.Methods:Lung tumor mouse models were made by subcutaneous injection of Lewis lung tumor cells( LLC) ,peripheral blood leukocytes were extracted from mouse tail blood at different time points after LLC injection.NKT and MDSC were detected by flow cytometry after relative antibody staining.Results:With the increasing volume of lung tumor,the ratio of NKT cells decreased gradually,while the ratio of MDSC increased gradually in the peripheral blood of LLC-injected mice.Both NKT and MDSC showed significantly changes in LLC-injected mice compared with that of normal control mice.Conclusion:NKT and MDSC in LLC-injected mice show opposite changes during the development of lung tumor,so,they can be used as potential monitoring index for lung tumor development.

Objective: The research was to investigate the intermediary effect of school adjustment between famale college students’ life meaning and mobile phone addiction and to provide reference for mobile phone addiction prevention. Methods: Totally 1 355 female college students in Jinan City were investigated with Life Meaning Scale, School Adjustment Scale and Mobile Phone Addiction Scale. Results: Score of freshmen’ mobile phone addiction (34.02±7.87) was significantly lower than that of sophomores’ and junior’(36.67±8.03, 37.19±10.40)(F=4.58, P<0.05). Female college students’ life meaning and school adjustment were negatively correlated with mobile phone addiction(r=-0.50, -0.58, P<0.01). Female college students’ life meaning was positively correlated with school adjustment(r=0.51, P<0.01). Having a sense of life meaning and seeking a sense of life meaning could jointly explain 24% of the variation in mobile phone addiction. School adjustment played a complete mediating role between life meaning and mobile phone addiction in female college students. Conclusion Female college students’ life meaning can affect mobile phone addiction through school adjustment.

Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a series of syndromes caused by stroke, involving impairment of one or more cognitive functions, such as attention, language function, executive function, visuospatial cognition, episodic memory and working memory, etc. The traditional treatment methods of PSCI include drug therapy and cognitive training. The treatment modalities are limited and the maintenance effect is not good. Therefore, an auxiliary treatment method is urgently needed to improve its therapeutic effect. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a safe and mature non-invasive brain stimulation technique, which generates weak direct current (1-2 mA) through electrodes placed on the scalp to change the resting membrane potential of neurons, regulate the excitability of the cerebral cortex, so as to achieve the purpose of treatment. This article reviews the effect of tDCS on PSCI, and hopes to provide reference and guidance for its rehabilitation treatment.

Objective:To investigate the function of gasdermin D (GSDMD) in intestinal damage of mice with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:The healthy C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups randomly, including normal saline (NS) group, small interfering RNA (siRNA)-NS group, SAP model group and siRNA-SAP group, with 6 mice in each group. The SAP mouse model was reproduced by intraperitoneal injection of caerulein 50 μg/kg combined with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 10 mg/kg; the NS group was given the same amount of NS; in the siRNA-SAP group and siRNA-NS group, siRNA 50 mg/kg was injected through the tail vein three times before modeling or injection of NS. The blood of mice eyeball in each group was taken 12 hours after modeling, and serum interleukins (IL-1β, IL-18) levels were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mice were sacrificed to observe the general changes in abdominal cavity, the pancreas and ileum tissues were taken to observe the pathological changes under a light microscope. The expression of long-chain non-coding RNA uc.173 (lnc uc.173) was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of tight junction proteins zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) and Occludin in intestinal mucosal epithelial cells. Western blotting was used to detect the GSDMD protein expression level in the intestinal tissue.Results:The serum levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the SAP model group were significantly higher than those in the NS group and the siRNA-NS group [IL-1β (ng/L): 146.66±1.40 vs. 44.48±5.76, 81.49±10.75, IL-18 (ng/L): 950.47±177.09 vs. 115.43±16.40, 84.84±21.90, all P < 0.05]; and the levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the siRNA-SAP group were significantly lower than those in the SAP model group [IL-1β (ng/L): 116.26±15.54 vs. 146.66±1.40, IL-18 (ng/L): 689.96±126.08 vs. 950.47±177.09, both P < 0.05]. General observation showed that there were no obvious abnormalities in the abdominal cavity of the mice in the NS and siRNA-NS groups; the mice in the SAP model group and the siRNA-SAP group had different degrees of edema and congestion in the intestine; compared with the SAP model group, the abnormalities in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly reduced. Under light microscope, there were no obvious changes in the pancreas and intestinal mucosa in the NS group and the siRNA-NS group; the pancreatic tissue of the SAP model group and the siRNA-SAP group had different degrees of edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and lobular structure damage, and the intestinal mucosa was damaged to a certain degree, and the villi were broken to varying degrees, but the damage in the siRNA-SAP group was lighter. The results of RT-PCR showed that the expression of lnc uc.173 in the intestinal tissues of the model SAP group was significantly lower than that of the NS group and the siRNA-NS group (2 -ΔΔCt: 0.26±0.12 vs. 1.01±0.37, 0.67±0.32, both P < 0.05), while the expression of lnc uc.173 in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly higher than that in the SAP model group (2 -ΔΔCt: 0.60±0.39 vs. 0.26±0.12, P < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry showed that ZO-1 and Occludin proteins in the NS group were distributed along the epithelial cells of the intestinal mucosa, showing a strong expression; ZO-1 and Occludin expressions were significantly reduced in the SAP model group and siRNA-SAP group, but the expressions in the siRNA-SAP group was higher than that in the SAP model group. Western blotting showed that the expression level of GSDMD protein in the intestinal tissues of the SAP model group was significantly higher than that of the NS group and the siRNA-NS group [GSDMD protein (GSDMD-N/β-actin): 1.99±0.46 vs. 1, 1.00±0.78, both P < 0.05]. Compared with the SAP model group, the expression of GSDMD protein in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly decreased [GSDMD protein (GSDMD-N/β-actin): 1.42±0.42 vs. 1.99±0.46, P < 0.05]. Conclusions:The systemic inflammatory response and intestinal mucosal barrier damage of SAP mice may be related to the increase of GSDMD expression in intestinal tissues. GSDMD mediates cell pyrolysis to promote the release of inflammatory factors, cause intestinal injury, and down-regulate the expression of intestinal epithelial cell tight junction proteins such as ZO-1 and Occludin, resulting in intestinal mucosal damage.

Objective To analysis the clinical features of dorsal pancreas agenesis ( DPA) and the associated diabetes, pancreatitis and other congenital organ malformations.Methods Chinese databases of Sinomed, CQVIP and CNKI using the term of short pancreas, pancreas agenesis, bulbar pancreas and dorsal pancreas, and English databases of PubMed using the term of dorsal pancreas agenesis, short pancreas and pancreas hypoplasia were searched.The clinical manifestation, pancreatic head characteristics and associations with diabetes, pancreatitis and other congenital organ malformations were analyzed.Results Six related publications from Chinese databases were searched and 21 patients were included with 2 cases excluded.Sixty-one publications from English database were searched and 71 patients were included.Thus, a total of 91 patients with DPA were analyzed.Abdominal pain was the most common manifestation, which was reported by 61.5% of the patients. 15.3% patients were identified during regular physical examination. Other manifestations including jaundice, fatigue, abdominal discomfort and diabetes were rare.After removing cases with insufficient information, 39 patients (61.9%) carried abnormal pancreatic head.Prevalence of diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance was 56.7% and the percentage of insulin-dependent diabetes in patients with abnormal glycaemia was 47.3%(n=18).20 patients (26.7%) were associated with pancreatitis, including 15 patients (75.0%) with acute pancreatitis, 1 patient (5.0%) with recurrent pancreatitis, and 4 patients (20.0%) with chronic pancreatitis. Thirty-three patients ( 36.2%) suffered other congenital organ malformations, including 21 patients (63.6%) with splenic malformation, 8 patients (24.2%) with heart malformation, and 17 patients (51.5%) with multi-organs malformations like gastrointestinal malformation, azygos vein and inferior cava vena fusion, duodenal and biliary atresia and renal absence.Conclusions The main diagnostic criteria of DPA was the absence of dorsal pancreatic duct.Diabetes was the most common complication followed by pancreatitis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1(PARP-1) in intestinal mucosal barrier injury in rat model with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:Twenty healthy male Wistar rats were divided into four groups ( n=5 each group) using a random table method: control, SAP, 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), and 3-AB control groups. The SAP model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of cerulean with lipopolysaccharide. At 30 min, the rats were treated with the PARP-1 inhibitor, 3-AB, or normal saline,separately. After 12 h, all rats were sacrificed to harvest pancreas tissues, intestines tissues, and blood from the hearts for index detection. Serum amylase (AMY) and interleukin (IL)-6 levels were measured using an automatic biochemical instrument and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively.The protein expression of PARP-1 and nuclear factor (NF-κB) were measured using Western blot and that of occludin was measured using an immunohistochemical test. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of multiple groups of variables. Non-parametric tests of rank conversion were used when variances were not uniform. A P <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:Compared to the control group, the following indexes in the SAP group were significantly increased: ascites (with serious hemorrhage and necrosis in the pancreas and disordered intestinal villi),serum AMY and IL-6 levels, and the expression of PARP-1 and NF-κB. However, Occludin expression was significantly decreased. There was no significant difference between 3-AB group and 3-AB control group. Compared to the SAP group, the severity of SAP and pancreatitis-associated intestinal injury was significantly attenuated with the administration of 3-AB. Serum AMY and IL-6 levels were significantly decreased (serum AMY: 1 879.25 ± 736.6 U/L vs 5 569.33 ± 1993.48 U/L; IL-6: 77.98 ± 20.65 pg/mL vs 209.14 ± 79.08 pg/mL, both P<0.05), but the expression of PARP-1 and NF-κB were significantly increased (PARP-1: 1.44 ± 0.09 vs 1.49 ± 0.13; NF-κB: 0.63 ± 0.09 vs 0.96±0.08, both P<0.05). Similarly, Occludin expression was significantly decreased (6.7±1.5 vs 3.2±1.1, P<0.05). Conclusions:Inhibition of PARP-1 has protective effects on SAP associated intestinal mucosal barrier damage. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway and increase intestinal mucosal Occludin protein expression.

Objective:To compare results of four glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) detection methods and to evaluate the uncertainty of HbA1C results in clinical laboratory, and to provide method for clinical laboratory on the evaluation of uncertainty.Methods:According to the four uncertainty evaluation methods, which were recommended by "CNAS-TRL-001, the evaluation and expression of measurement uncertainty in medical laboratory", the relative and absolute uncertainty of low, medium and high HbA1c in 33 clinical laboratories measured in 2019 and 35 clinical laboratories measured in 2020 was evaluated by more than 6 months of internal quality control (IQC) data, trueness verification and external quality assessment (EQA) data. The four uncertainty evaluation methods were: IQC data and trueness verification data (method 1), only trueness verification data (method 2), IQC and EQA data (method 3) and only EQA data (method 4). The related statistical methods used in this analysis were Friedman and Wilcoxon signed rank test.Results:For method 1, the median range of relative and absolute uncertainty of low, medium and high HbA1c detection in 2019 and 2020 ranged from 4.21% to 9.24% and from 0.27% to 0.64%, respectively. Compared to method 1, the relative and absolute uncertainties obtained by method 2 were smaller, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.016 7, P<0.05). Compared to method 1, the relative uncertainties obtained by method 3 and method 4 were smaller, except for the high concentration of HbA1c level in 2020. Among the 6 pairs of comparisons (low, medium and high HbA1c in 2019 and 2020), there were 3 pairs (high HbA1c in 2019, low and medium HbA1c in 2020) and 2 pairs (low and high HbA1c in 2020) of differences with statistical significance (all P<0.016 7). Conclusion:The uncertainty evaluation of HbA1c detection in clinical laboratory should be evaluated based on IQC and trueness verification data.

The epidemic strains of EV-A71 in Xining City was closely related to other provinces of China in 2017. Conclusions C4a was the dominant genotype of EV-A71 in Xining city in 2017, and no other genotype was detected. In addition, EV-A71 isolated from Xining city was co-evolved with EV-A71 in other provinces of China.

OBJECTIVE：To study the improvement eff ects and p otential mechanism of chelidonine on CCl 4-induced hepatic fibrosis model rats. METHODS ：According to the random number table method ，a total of 48 rats were randomly divided into normal control group ，model group ，chelidonine low-dose ，middle-dose and high-dose groups （0.125，0.25，0.50 mg/kg），positive control group （Liver-protecting tablet ，0.42 g/kg），with 8 rats in each group. Except for normal control group ，other groups were given CCl 4-olive oil solution intraperitoneally for 8 weeks to induce hepatic fibrosis model. From the fifth week of modeling ， normal control group and model group were given water intragastrically ；administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically，once a day ，for consecutive 10 weeks. After last intragastric administration ，hepatic index of rats was calculated. The levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST），alanine aminotransferase （ALT）and hyaluronic acid （HA）in serum and the level of hydroxyproline （Hyp）in liver tissue were determined. The staining of collagen fibrin in rat liver was observed. The protein expression of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA），microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3（LC3）and p 62 as well as the phosphorylation level of phosphoinositide 3 kinase（PI3K），protein kinase B （Akt）and mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）in liver tissue were determined ；mRNA expression corresponding to above protein were also determined. RESULTS ：Compared with normal control group ，the hepatic index ，the serum levels of AST ，ALT，HA and Hyp ，the percentage of positive staining area for collagen fibrin ，the mRNA and protein expression of α-SMA and LC 3- Ⅱ were increased significantly （P＜0.05）. Protein expression of p 62，phosphorylation levels of PI 3K，Akt and mTOR as well as mRNA expression of p 62，PI3K，Akt and mTOR were significantly down-regulated （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group ，phosphorylation levels of PI 3K and mTOR were decreased significantly in chelidonine low-dose group （P＜0.05）. The changes of above indexes in chelidonine middle-dose and high-dose groups （except for liver index ， HA level in middle-dose group ） were reversed significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS：Chelidonine can attenuate CCl 4-induced liver fibrosis in rats ；the mechanism of it may be associated with activating PI 3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway and inhibiting autophagy.
