A DNA fragment encoding human interleukin 4 was obtained by PCR from pORF-hIL4 plasmid. The amplified fragment was inserted into prokaryotic expression vector PQE60 and recombinant protein was expressed in E. Coli M15 by adding isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG). The hIL-4 protein was present as insoluble inclusion bodies in the bacterial extract. After denaturation of inclusion bodies with 5 mol/L guanidine hydrochloride, the supernate was diluted to get renaturized. Then dialysis and Ni chelating chromatography were used for purification. TF-1 proliferation assay of recombinant human interleukin 4 was performed, and then rhIL-4 was fit to be used for proliferation of human dendritic cells from monocyte in vitro.

Adjacent segment disease(ASD) refers to the degeneration of adjacent segments after lumbar fusion surgery, including intervertebral disc herniation, stress vertebral fractures, slippage, segmental scoliosis, spinal canal stenosis, and facet joint degeneration, which can lead to corresponding clinical symptoms such as lumbosacral pain, root lower limb pain, or intermittent claudication. The treatment of different pathological types of ASD varies. The patients with mild symptoms require conservative treatment and patients with severe symptoms require surgical treatment. In the past, open fusion surgery with posterior approach or intervertebral foramen approach was commonly used for surgical treatment, which had definite therapeutic effects. However, there were drawbacks such as large surgical trauma, excessive intraoperative blood loss, and slow postoperative recovery. With the booming development of minimally invasive spinal surgery technology in recent years, spinal surgeons actively use minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of ASD. It has advantages such as less bleeding, short hospital stay, fast recovery, and fewer complications (such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism), but its indications are limited. Therefore, this article provides a reference for the choice of ASD treatment by reviewing the treatment modalities of ASD with different pathological types.

Beijing has been one of the epicenters attacked most severely by the SARS-CoV (severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus) since the first patient was diagnosed in one of the city's hospitals. We now report complete genome sequences of the BJ Group, including four isolates (Isolates BJ01, BJ02, BJ03, and BJ04) of the SARS-CoV. It is remarkable that all members of the BJ Group share a common haplotype, consisting of seven loci that differentiate the group from other isolates published to date. Among 42 substitutions uniquely identified from the BJ group, 32 are non-synonymous changes at the amino acid level. Rooted phylogenetic trees, proposed on the basis of haplotypes and other sequence variations of SARS-CoV isolates from Canada, USA, Singapore, and China, gave rise to different paradigms but positioned the BJ Group, together with the newly discovered GD01 (GD-Ins29) in the same clade, followed by the H-U Group (from Hong Kong to USA) and the H-T Group (from Hong Kong to Toronto), leaving the SP Group (Singapore) more distant. This result appears to suggest a possible transmission path from Guangdong to Beijing/Hong Kong, then to other countries and regions.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Shenbai Jiedu prescription on fecal metabolomics and intestinal flora diversity distribution in patients with colorectal adenoma and explore its potential targets. MethodA total of 21 patients diagnosed with colorectal adenoma were enrolled in this study. Following a four-week administration of Shenbai Jiedu prescription， their clinical symptoms were observed， and fecal samples of patients before and after treatment were collected. Untargeted metabolomics and metagenomic analysis based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （LC-MS） were employed to investigate the possible metabolic pathway of Shenbai Jiedu prescription and its influence on the distribution of intestinal flora in patients. ResultThe total scores of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes of patients after drug administration decreased significantly （P<0.01）. The results of untargeted metabolomics showed that the distribution of metabolites exhibited aggregation before and after drug administration， and a total of 106 differential metabolites were screened out （P<0.05）. The Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis revealed that arginine-proline metabolism， ferroptosis， glycine， and serine and threonine metabolism were significantly enriched metabolic pathways （P<0.05）. Notably， L-4-hydroxyglutamate semialdehyde， glutathione， isopentenyl pyrophosphate， creatinine， 4-acetamido-2-aminobutanoic acid， and guanidoacetic acid were found to be involved in these aforementioned metabolic pathways. Furthermore， the association between these metabolites and different intestinal flora was analyzed， and the results showed that Shenbai Jiedu prescription could interfere with metabolic pathways such as amino acid and ferroptosis in patients with colorectal adenoma by regulating intestinal flora such as Lachnoclostridium， Eggerthella， and Dialister （P<0.05）. ConclusionShenbai Jiedu prescription may improve the clinical symptoms of patients by increasing the abundance of intestinal beneficial bacteria， reducing the abundance of harmful bacteria， and regulating metabolic pathways such as amino acid and ferroptosis in patients with colorectal adenoma. This study may provide some research ideas and directions for Shenbai Jiedu prescription to interfere with colorectal adenoma recurrence and carcinogenesis.

ObjectiveTo explore the biological foundation of colorectal adenoma in damp-heat accumulation syndrome and the possible anti-tumor mechanism of Shenbai Jiedu prescription. MethodEight patients with colorectal adenoma in damp-heat accumulation syndrome， 11 patients with non-damp-heat accumulation syndrome， and 10 patients with colorectal cancer recruited by Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February 2019 to December 2020 meeting the inclusion criteria were clinically obtained， and the tissue of the three groups of patients was subjected to transcriptome sequencing to screen for the differentially expressed genes between the syndrome and the diseases. The intersection of the differentially expressed genes between the syndrome and the disease was taken for further screening of the differentially expressed genes sequentially increasing or sequentially decreasing in patients with non-damp-heat accumulation syndrome， damp-heat accumulation syndrome， and colorectal cancer， and functional enrichment analysis and signaling pathway enrichment analysis were carried out. Real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the effect of Shenbai Jiedu prescription on the expression of the above key differential genes. ResultBy comparing the damp-heat accumulation syndrome and non-damp-heat accumulation syndrome， a total of 384 differentially expressed genes were screened， of which 203 were up-regulated genes， and 181 were down-regulated genes. By comparing the colorectal adenoma of colorectal cancer and damp-heat accumulation syndrome， a total of 2 965 differentially expressed genes were screened， of which 2 460 were up-regulated genes， and 505 were down-regulated genes. The intersection of differentially expressed genes of the two groups was taken， and a total of 58 differentially expressed genes with the same changes were screened. The gene ontology functions were mainly enriched in UDP-galactose： β-N-acetylglucosamine beta-1，3-galactosyltransferase activity， N-acetyllactosaminide beta-1，3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity， and poly-N-acetyllactosamine biosynthetic process. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） signaling pathways were mainly enriched in glycosphingolipid biosynthesis-globo and isoglobo series， glycosphingolipid biosynthesis-lacto and neolacto series， and IL-17 signaling pathway. Shenbai Jiedu prescription significantly inhibited the expression of key genes involved in the enrichment， such as FOSB and B3GALT5， in a dose-dependent manner （P<0.05）. ConclusionGlycolipid metabolism may be the biological foundation of colorectal adenoma in damp-heat accumulation syndrome， and Shenbai Jiedu prescription may inhibit colorectal adenoma carcinogenesis by down-regulating the expression of FOSB and B3GALT5.
