Liver sinusoid endothelial cells are the first defense mechanism that protects the liver against various injuries,and they also play a significant role in the development of liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis caused by chronic liver injury.They are involved in liver fibrosis by mediating liver inflammation,participating in sinusoid capillarization and revascularization,activating hepatic stellate cells,secreting many proinflammatory cytokines,participating in extracellular matrix formation,and mediating liver microcirculation disturbance.Clarification of these mechanisms helps to identify new targets and develop new regimens for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Abstract: Objective To collect extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from Xi'an City between 2019 and 2020, and analyze the drug resistance patterns of XDR-TB strains to second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs and the occurrence of new defined extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis in Xi'an, in order to provide evidence for guiding clinical drug use of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) patients. Methods A total of 3 088 strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that underwent phenotypic drug susceptibility testing at Xi'an Chest Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively selected to analyze the resistance of anti-tuberculosis drug. Among the stored MDR-TB strains, 114 strains of preserved multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis were randomly selected for bedaquiline and linezolid susceptibility testing. Combined with the results of previous second-line drug susceptibility testing, the incidence of newly defined extensive drug resistance was analyzed. Results Among the 3 088 Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains analyzed, 411 strains (14.3%) showed resistance to isoniazid, 347 strains (11.2%) showed resistance to rifampicin, 142 strains (4.6%) showed resistance to ethambutol, 550 strains (17.8%) showed resistance to streptomycin, and 237 strains (7.6%) exhibited multidrug resistance. Of 237 MDR-TB strains, the resistance rates of ethambutol, moxifloxacin, rifampicin, sodium para-aminosalicylate, prothioconazole, capreomycin, amikacin, and clofazimine were 44.3%, 26.6%, 33.3%, 24.1%, 5.1%, 4.2%, 3.0%, and 2.5%, respectively. Among the randomly selected 114 MDR-TB strains, none showed resistance to bedaquiline, three showed resistance to linezolid, and one strain met the new definition for extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis. Conclusion In Xi'an City, high rates of resistance among MDR-TB strains are observed for ethambutol, quinolone and sodium para-aminosalicylate, and the drug susceptibility tests should be obtained as much as possible when using these drugs. The incidence of new definition extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis is low, and bedaquiline and linezolid remain effective drugs for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis even without drug susceptibility testing results.

BACKGROUND:Leukemia cells can obtain drug resistance phenotype mediated by adhesion to bone marrow stromal cells. But, for chronic myelogenous leukemia with adhesion functional defects, the role and mechanism of bone marrow stromal cells in imatinib-resistant formation remain unclear. OBJECTIVE:To construct the co-cultured model of bone marrow stromal cells-K562 cells and to investigate the influences of the co-culture with bone marrow stromal cells from the patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia on imatinib sensitivity of K562 cells and cellcycle. METHODS:The co-culture model was constructed by co-culturing K562 cells with bone marrow stromal cells isolated and cultured from the patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia. The IC50 values of K562 cells exposed to imatinib were quantified by MTT assay. The apoptotic rates of K562 cells exposed to 0.5μmol/L imatinib for 72 hours were detected by flow cytometry through Annexin V-FIT/PI labeling. The cellcycles, cellcycle protein (cyclin A, cyclin D1 and cyclin E) expression of K562 cells co-cultured with bone marrow stromal cells for 72 hours were analyzed by flow cytometry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The IC50 values of co-culture group and suspension culture group were respectively (0.52±0.02)μmol/L and (1.27±0.05)μmol/L, and their comparison showed significant differences (P<0.01). After 72 hours of treatment with 0.5μmol/L imatinib, the apoptotic rates in the co-culture group and suspension culture group were respectively (15.48±4.17)%and (32.01±6.83)%, and their comparison showed significant differences (P<0.01). The percentages of G0-G1 phase of K562 cells co-cultured with bone marrow stromal cells for 72 hours were (48.81±8.27)%, which were significantly higher than the suspension culture group (25.78±3.26%) (P<0.01). The co-culture with bone marrow stromal cells from the patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia could mediate K562 cells resistance to imatinib. The mechanism was possibly related with G0/G1 arrest of K562 cells induced by co-culture with bone marrow stromal cells.

Objective To analyze epidemic status and influencing factors for the poor vision of the students in Henan in 2014 and to provide the scientific basis of more targeted myopia prevention strategies.Methods The data of 34 886 students aged 9 to 18 who were involved in the students'physical fitness survey in Henan province in 2014 was used to analyze epidemic status and influencing factors for the poor vision.Results The prevalence rate of myopia among Henan students was 62.5%.In addition,high school was higher than middle school which was higher than primary school.Girl was higher than boy,and urban was higher than rural.Through the unconditional logistic regression,having breakfast three to five times a week,eating eggs three to five times a week,drinking milk unusually,doing exercise over two hours a day,and watching TV over two hours a day were the protective factors for poor vision,of which the OR were 0.850,0.883,0.864,0.830,0.738 respectively.Correspondingly,the 95% CI were 0.776-0.931,0.813-0.960,0.812-0.920,0.722-0.955,0.681-0.799.While sleeping less than seven hours,PE class one time a week or less,refusing to run longdistance,doing homework over two hours,and playing the e-productions over two hours were the risk factors of which OR were 1.100,1.091,1.100,1.375,1.155 respectively.Correspondingly,the 95% CI were 1.009-1.199,1.017-1.172,1.024-1.183,1.287-1.469,1.072-1.244.Conclusions The rate of the myopia among the students in Henan is still severe.There are multifarious factors related to poor vision.Therefore,much more targeted measures should be taken to prevent poor vision from developing.

Objective To determine the expression of interleukin-21 (IL-21) in patients infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and its association with HBV-DNA and ALT. Methods Clinical dates and blood specimen were collected from 25 unrelated healthy controls (HC) and 101 independent chronic HBV infected patients, including 25 patients in immune tolerant phase (IT), 25 in immune clearance phase (IC), 26 patients in inactive HBV carrier state (IA) and 25 patients in immune reactive phase (IR). Serum IL-21 levels were measured by Cytometric Bead Array (CBA). IL-21 mRNA and IL-21 receptor mRNA were measured by real-time PCR. Results Chronic HBV-infected patients had higher levels of serum IL-21 and IL-21 mRNA , with P <0.001 for both. In subgroup analysis, both serum IL-21 and IL-21 mRNA levels in IC, IR were higher than those in IT, IA and HC (all P < 0.001). Serum IL-21 level in IA was higher than that in HC and IT (P <0.001, P = 0.036). IL-21R mRNA levels were different between groups. Serum IL-21 level was associated with HBV-DNA (r = -0.472, P < 0.001), but not with ALT. Conclusion IL-21, up-regulated in chronic HBV infection, is associated with immune activity and may play a key role in HBV control.
