Endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H_2S) is to third found gaseous transmitter.In cardiovascular system, H_2S is produced endogenously by cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE)and plays an important role in the regulation of cardiovascular physiologic function and patho physiological processes.The CSE/H_2S system has a variety of biological effects in the cardiovascular system, such as inducing vasorelaxation,decreases blood pressure,inhibiting vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and inducing anti-oxidant.It is also concerned with variety of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipemia, atherosclerosis,coronary artery disease and so on.We summarize the biochemical characteristics and the physiological functions of endogenous H_2S and its patho physiological effects in cardiovascular diseases.

Tumor is a complex systemic disease, involving abnormalities at multiple levels, such as DNA, RNA, protein and metabolite. According to the central rule, the derived omics methods are genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabonomics. In the past few decades, there have been remarkable achievements in the single omics study of tumor, but the exact mechanism of tumor development is still unclear. In order to reveal the process of tumorigenesis and development in a more systematic way, the research of multiomics came into being, which promoted the transformation of tumor research paradigm from single parameter model to multi parameter system model. The integration of multi-omics methods is expected to clarify the mechanism of tumor occurrence and development, find biomarkers with diagnostic, prognostic and predictive performance, explore new treatment targets, and finally achieve predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM). This paper reviews the research methods and progress of different omics techniques in tumor research, especially emphasizes the importance and scientific value of the integration of multiple omics techniques in tumor research and clinical related results.

Objective To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.Methods 8 patients with primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma were reviewed from April, 2012 to April, 2015.The mean age was 58 years old, ranging 43-68 years old.Color Doppler echocardiography examination showed that there were round or oval regular tumors in the scrotum, which the diameter ranged from 3.5 to 8.0 cm, mean 5.5 cm.There was no abnormal changes among abdomen and pelvic cavity in CT scan and tumor markers examination.The radical orchiectomy were performed in all patients.After opening the tunica vaginalis, a hard texture tumor could be found, which has the vague border line with normal tissue.All patients were diagnosed according to the combination of morpbologic and immunohistochemical examination after operating.Results All patients accepted operation successfully.The mean operation time was 34 minutes, ranging 25-40 minutes.8 cases were diagnosed as primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma after operating.Immunohistochemical analysis showed that CD20, BCL-6 were positive.CD3, CD10, CK were negative.All patients received adjuvant chemotherapy with RCHOP(cytoxan 750 mg/m2, adriamycin 50mg/m2, leurocnstine 1.4 mg/m2, prednisone 60 mg/m2 ,rituximab 375 mg/m2) regimen over 6 cycles, which was conducted once every three weeks, one week post-operatively.The follow up duration ranged from 6 to 36 months, mean 17 months.All patients survived at the end of this study with no sign of recurrence and metastasis.Conclusions The patients with primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma are rare.The radical orchiectomy is recommended.And RCHOP chemotherapy should be considered one week post-operatively.The short term outcome of the treatment is satisfactory.But the long term outcome should be further studied.

Baculovirus-mediated gene transfer into mammalian cells has been used to develop non-replicative vector vaccines against a number of diseases in several animal models.A baculovirus pseudotyped with the glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus was used as vector to construct the recombinant baculovirus expressing classical swine fever virus(CSFV) E2 protein under the control of ie1 promoter from white spot syndrome virus.The E2 gene was shown to be efficiently expressed in both insect and mammalian cells.Intramuscular injection of mice with the recombinant baculovirus resulted in the production of high-level CSFV-specific antibodies.Specific lymphoproliferative responses to the CSFV stimulation were induced in the splenocytes of the immunized mice as demonstrated by CFSE staining assay and WST-8 assay.The results indicates that the pseudotyped baculovirus-delivered gene can be a potential non-replicative vaccine against CSFV infection.

Objective To explore the effect of electroacupuncture at Quchi (LI11) and Zusanli (ST36) acupoints on motor behaviors, the axonal integrity and nerve bundle of motor cortex and striatum in rat model of ischemic stroke induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Methods Thirty-six adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to sham opera-tion group (sham group), ischemia control group (model group) and electroacupuncture treatment group (EA group) with twelve rats in each group. The later two groups were occluded their middle cerebral arteries for two hours. Twenty-four hours after modeling, EA group re-ceived electroacupuncture at Quchi (LI11) and Zusanli (ST36) acupoints on the paralyzed limb, once a day, for 14 days. They were assessed with modified Neurological Severity Scores (mNSS) and Rota-rod test, and scanned with small animal magnetic resonance imaging system for T2-weighted image (T2WI) and DTI, the infarct size, related fractional anisotropy (rFA) and related number of tracks of motor cortex and striatum were recorded. Results Compared with the sham group, the score of mNSS increased in the model group and EA group after model-ing, and was lower in EA group than in the model group seven days and 14 days after intervention (P<0.05). Rota-rod test showed that the retention time was significantly longer in EA group than in the model group (P<0.05). T2WI showed that the infarct size was smaller in EA group than in the model group (P<0.05). DTI showed that rFA in motor cortex and striatum was higher in EA group than in the model group (P<0.05), as well as the related number of tracks (P<0.05) in motor cortex. Conclusion Electroacupuncture at Quchi and Zusanli acupoints could improve the motor function in rats with ischemic stroke, which may be related to the recovery of nerve bundle of motor cortex and stri-atum in ischemic side.

Objective To analyze the mortality characteristics and trends and the cause-eliminated life expectancy of gastric cancer in Harbin City from 1987 to 2019. Methods Mortality data of residents with gastric cancer from 1987 to 2019 in Harbin was analyzed to describe the mortality characteristics and trends of gastric cancer. Abridged life table and cause-eliminated life table were applied to calculate life expectancy and cause-eliminated life expectancy. Average annual percentage change (AAPC) was calculated with Joinpoint 4.2 software to evaluate the trends of mortality and cause-eliminated life expectancy of gastric cancer. Results From 1987 to 2019, the crude mortality, ASMRC and ASMRW and the truncated rate (35-64) were 14.3/10⁵, 10.9/10⁵, 10.9/10⁵, and 13.5/10⁵, respectively. The ASMRC showed an obvious decreasing trend at an average annual rate of 2.9% from 1987 to 2019 (95%CI: -4.4%--1.4%). Significant decreasing trends were observed for males (AAPC=-3.0%, 95%CI: -4.4%--1.7%) and females (AAPC=-3.1%, 95%CI: -5.3%--0.9%). An obvious decreasing trend in the ASMRW was also observed. The truncated rate (35-64) showed a downward trend (AAPC=-2.8%, 95%CI: -3.1%--2.5%). The average life expectancy of residents from 1987 to 2019 in Harbin were 76.78 years (male: 74.41 years, female: 79.33 years). After eliminating the causes of death of gastric cancer, the life expectancy increased by 0.25 years (male: 0.31 years, female: 0.18 years). Significant decreasing trends were found in the proportion of gastric cancer in all malignant cancer cases (AAPC=-0.18%, 95%CI: -2.0%--1.7%). Conclusion The mortality of gastric cancer decreases gradually from 1987 to 2019 in Harbin. After eliminating the causes of death of gastric cancer, the life expectancy increases by 0.25 years. Therefore, prevention and control should be strengthened.

Objective To investigate the relationship between learning and memory deficit and demyelination of the corpus callosum in twelve-month old APP/PS1 transgenic mice. Methods Twelve twelve-month old APP/PS1 transgenic mice were as AD group, and age-matched wild type (WT) littermates were as WT group. Learning and memory ability was tested with Morris water maze, and the mor-phology of nerve fiber of corpus callosum was detected with Luxol Fast Blue staining. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect myelin ba-sic protein (MBP) in the corpus callosum. Thioflavine S staining was used to detect amyloid plaque in the corpus callosum. Results Com-pared with WT group, the latency increased (Z>2.873, P<0.01) and the times crossing the location of the platform decreased (t=-7.339, P<0.001) in AD group. The nerve fibers were sparse and disorganized, with a lot of vacuoles in the corpus callosum of AD group. The positive expression of MBP in the corpus callosum was significantly decreased (t=-4.481, P<0.001) in AD group compared with WT group. There were amyloid plaques in the corpus callosum of AD group. Conclusion Twelve-month old APP/PS1 transgenic mice exhibit learning and memory deficit, which may be attributed to the deposition of the amyloid plaque mediated demyelinated injury of the corpus callosum.

We have previously evaluated a Semliki Forest virus (SFV) replicon vectored DNA vaccine (pSFV1CS2-E2) and a recombinant adenovirus (rAdV-E2) expressing the E2 glycoprotein of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) in pigs. The results showed that the immunized pigs were protected from virulent challenge, but few pigs showed short-term fever and occasional pathological changes following virulent challenge. To enhance the immunogenecity of the vaccines, we tried a prime-boost vaccination strategy using a combination of prime with pSFV1CS2-E2 followed by boost with rAdV-E2. The results showed that all the immunized pigs developed high-level CSFV-specific antibodies following prime-boost immunization. When challenged with virulent CSFV, the immunized pigs (n = 5) from the heterologous boost group showed no clinical symptoms, and CSFV RNA was not detected following challenge, whereas one of five pigs from the homologous boost group developed short-term fever and CSFV RNA was detected. This demonstrates that the heterologous prime-boost vaccination regime has the potential to prevent against virulent challenge.

Classical swine fever (CSF), which is caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV), causes significant losses in pig industry in many countries in Asia and Europe. The E2 glycoprotein of CSFV is the main target for neutralizing antibodies. In this study, a recombinant replication-defective human adenovirus expressing the CSFV E2 gene (rAdV-E2) was generated and evaluated for the immunogenicity in rabbits. The results showed that the rabbits immunized with rAdV-E2 developed high-level CSFV-specific antibodies. The rAdV-E2-immunized rabbits were all free of the regular fever and the viral replication in the spleen upon challenge with C-strain, which were seen in the rabbits immunized with the parent adenovirus of rAdV-E2. This indicates that the recombinant adenovirus can be an attractive candidate vaccine against CSF.
