CONCLUSION(1) Soldiers in the graduating class of armed services colleges have better body composition than that of ordinary residents in the same age and the same sex; (2) Standard of body composition for soldiers in the graduating class of armed services colleges should be different from that of ordinary residents, a new standard should be built up.

In this study, we explored the feasibility of biotin-mediated modified polymeric micelles for pancreatic cancer targeted photodynamic therapy. Poly (ethylene glycol)-distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine (mPEG2000-DSPE) served as the drug-loaded material, biotin-poly(ethylene glycol)-distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine (Biotin-PEG3400-DSPE) as the functional material and the polymeric micelles were prepared by a thin-film hydration method. The targeting capability of micelles was investigated by cell uptake assay in vitro and fluorescence imaging in vivo and the amounts of Biotin-PEG-DSPE were optimized accordingly. Hypocrellin B (HB), a novel photosensitizer was then encapsulated in biotinylated polymeric micelles and the anti-tumor efficacy was evaluated systemically in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that micelles with 5 mol % Biotin-PEG-DSPE demonstrated the best targeting capability than those with 20 mol % or 0.5 mol % of corresponding materials. This formulation has a small particle size [mean diameter of (36.74 ± 2.16) nm] with a homogeneous distribution and high encapsulation efficiency (80.06 ± 0.19) %. The following pharmacodynamics assays showed that the biotinylated micelles significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity of HB against tumor cells in vitro and inhibited tumor growth in vivo, suggesting a promising potential of this formulation for treatment of pancreatic cancer, especially those poorly permeable, or insensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

The ideal treatment and recovery of osteoarticular injury remain to be resolved. Small intestinal submucosa (SIS), a naturally-occurring decellularized extracellular matrix, has been recognized as an ideal scaffold for tissue engineering and widely used in repairing various tissues and organs. Nowadays its application has also been gradually increased in the field of orthopedics. We reviewed laboratorial studies and clinical trails about the application of SIS in bone and joint repair, aiming to evaluate its effects on the repair of bone, cartilage, meniscus, ligament and tendon. SIS has showed promising results in repairing bone, meniscus, ligament or tendon. However, additional studies will be required to further evaluate its effects on articular cartilage and tendon-bone healing. How to optimize SIS material,is also a focused problem concerned with making SIS a potential therapeutic option with high value for orthopedic tissue repair.

Objective To investigate the regulatory role of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) on acute lung injury (ALI), and its molecular mechanism. Methods Twenty C57BL/6 male mice and 20 PD-L1 knock out male mice were collected, and they were divided into two groups by random number table, respectively: namely sham group and ALI group, 10 mice in each group. The model of ALI was reproduced by two-hit of hemorrhagic shock and sepsis, and the mice in sham group were only got bilateral femoral artery exposure and ligation without bleeding, cecal separation without ligation and perforation. The mice were sacrificed 24 hours after model reproduction, and the lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were collected. The mRNA and protein expression levels of PD-L1 in the lungs were determined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western Blot. The pathological changes were observed with microscopy. The protein levels in BALF were determined. The granulocyte differentiation antigen 1 (Gr1) positive cells was determined by cytometry, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in lung tissue was determined. The levels of proinflammatory factors interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and chemotatic factors keratinocyte chemoattractant (KC), macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) in lung homogenates and BALF were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Compared with sham group, the mRNA and protein levels of PD-L1 in lung tissue of C57BL/6 mice in ALI group were significantly elevated [PD-L1 mRNA (2-ΔΔCt): 3.20±0.76 vs. 1.01±0.03, PD-L1 protein (A value): 0.98±0.16 vs. 0.15±0.04, both P < 0.05]. It was shown by light microscopy that the alveolar wall was thickened, congestive, edema and spot bleeding with a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung tissue of C57BL/6 mice in ALI group, and an obvious protein leakage was found in BALF (ng/L: 0.18±0.06 vs. 0.05±0.01, P < 0.05). The lung injury degree of PD-L1 knockout ALI mice was significantly less than that of C57BL/6 ALI mice, and the protein leakage was significantly reduced in BALF (ng/L: 0.11±0.02 vs. 0.18±0.06, P < 0.05). Compared with corresponding sham group, the number of Gr1 positive cells, MPO activity in lung tissue as well as the levels proinflammatory factors and chemotatic factors in lung tissue and BALF in ALI group were significantly increased. However, when compared with C57BL/6 ALI mice, above parameters in lung homogenates and BALF were significantly decreased in PD-L1 knockout ALI mice [number of Gr1 positive cells: (39.0±4.0)% vs. (45.0±8.0)%, MPO activity (U·μg-1·min-1): 2.85±0.62 vs. 4.52±1.16; lung IL-6 (ng/g): 461±111 vs. 728±28, TNF-α (ng/g): 1 123±175 vs. 1 500±327, KC (ng/g): 150±34 vs. 250±28, MIP-2 (ng/g): 1 263±468 vs. 1 763±323; BALF IL-6 (ng/L): 134±22 vs. 258±38, TNF-α (ng/L): 598±102 vs. 889±139, KC (ng/L): 934±286 vs. 1 258±336, MIP-2 (ng/L): 650±130 vs. 950±256; all P < 0.05]. Conclusion PD-L1 may play an important protective role in the immunological mechanism of ALI, which may be mediated by decreasing chemotactic factor KC and MIP-2 and mitigating neutrophil chemotaxis in lung tissue.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of stimulating “Zhiyang” (DU 9) with electric acupuncture apparatus on contents of cAMP and cGMP in plasma of experimental acute myocardial ischemic rabbits.Methods40 rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: the normal control group (A), model group (B), model plus electric acupuncture on “Neiguan” (P 6) group (C) and model plus electric acupuncture on DU 9 group (D). The acute myocardial ischemic model was established by pituitrin (2 U/kg) injected into the vein of rabbit. Electrocardiogram (ECG) of Ⅱ leads was observed and contents of cAMP and cGMP in plasma were tested after electric acupuncture by radio immunoassay.ResultsThe cAMP contents of the group C and group D were lower than that of the group B significantly ( P<0.01), but not different from that of the group A ( P>0.05), and there was no difference between the group C and group D. The contents of cGMP were not different among four groups ( P>0.05).ConclusionPuncturing DU 9 can raise the myocardial endurance to the insufficiency of blood and oxygen. The effects of electric acupuncture on DU 9 and P 6 are the same.

Abstract: Objective　Quantitative assessment of risk factors of clonorchiasis can provide prevention for clonorchiasis. Methods　Articles were retrieved in Chinese and English electronic databases from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2020, including Wanfang Data, CNKI, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase. All studies were screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the quality of all enrolled literatures was evaluated. The software RevMan version 5.3 was used for Meta-analysis. The heterogeneity, sensitivity and publication bias of all included studies were analyzed. Results　A total of 95 articles were retrieved, and 6 were included in this Meta-analysis which were case-control studies. There were 5 articles in Chinese and 1 in English. There was no single literature with a large impact on the results, and the results of this study were relatively stable. There were 1 170 cases of clonorchiasis in total and 1 291 cases in control. Most of the cases were from hospital patients and community residents, and the floating population was small. Meta-analysis showed that there were three independent risk factors: raw or semi-raw fish, raw or semi-raw shrimp, mix raw and cooked cutting boards, with a combined OR (95%CI) of 2.32(1.86, 2.88), 3.99(2.42, 6.58), 2.18(1.51, 3.14), respectively, with low heterogeneity consistent with the results of the total sample study: I2 values for risk factors were 30%, 12%, 27%, respectively. The results of bias tests showed no publication bias (P=0.731, 0.725, 0.334, P>0.05). Conclusions　The key risk factors of clonorchiasis are raw or semi-raw fish, raw or semi-raw shrimp, mix raw and cooked cutting boards. Guidance and health education should be strengthened. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance of clonorchiasis in the floating population, such as traveler, businessman and student.

Objective To investigate the effect of single dose intraosseous injection of simvastatin on tumor vascular structure and function in murine breast cancer. Methods BALB/c mice and 4T1 murine breast cancer cells were used to establish a subcutaneous xenograft model. The mouse model of orthotopic breast cancer received intraosseous injection of a single dose of simvastatin (50 μg) or vehicle only. Frozen tumor tissue sections were prepared for co-immunostained with CD31 andα-SMA. Evans blue dye was injected into the tail vein to observe the vascular permeability. The expression level of HIF-1αwas detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Immunofluorescence dual staining showed that intraosseous injection of simvastatin increased the number of perivascular pericytes in the tumor vessel(P < 0. 05), Evans blue dye content showed that in vivo vessel permeability in the tumor tissue was significantly decreased(P < 0. 05), and the immunohistochemistry results showed that local hypoxic area was significantly improved. Conclusions Single dose intraosseous injection of simvastatin can promote the normalization of tumor vasculature by improving the coverage of pericytes.
