A robust,selective and highly sensitive chemiluminescent (CL) platform for protein assay was presented in this paper.This novel CL approach utilized rolling circle amplification (RCA) as a signal enhancement technique and the 96-well plate as the immobilization and separation carrier.Typically,the antibody immobilized on the surface of 96-well plate was sandwiched with the protein target and the aptamer-primer sequence.This aptamer-primer sequence was then employed as the primer of RCA.Based on this design,a number of the biotinylated probes and streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP) were captured on the plate,and the CL signal was amplified.In summary,our results demonstrated a robust biosensor with a detection limit of 10 fM that is easy to be established and utilized,and devoid of light source.Therefore,this new technique will broaden the perspective for future development of DNA-based biosensors for the detection of other protein biomarkers related to clinical diseases,by taking advantages of high sensitivity and selectivity.

With the development of the times, the comprehensive treatment technology of breast conserving or modified radical mastectomy plus radiotherapy for breast cancer has become more mature and perfect. As the first station of lymphatic drainage of breast, internal mammary lymph nodes have been paid much attention. At present, there is a controversy about whether the internal mammary lymph nodes are irradiated or not. Previous studies have shown that local lymph nodes irradiation containing internal mammary lymph nodes has survival benefit value. However, as a part of regional lymph nodse irradiation, internal mammary lymph nodes irradiation has also been proved to increase the toxicity of heart and lung, which leads to some research institutions and scholars to remain skeptical about internal mammary lymph nodes irradiation. In recent years, with the improvement of radiotherapy technology and equipment and the accumulation of clinical experience, more and more scholars tend to accept internal mammary lymph nodes radiotherapy. But we should pay attention to the indications of internal mammary lymph nodes irradiation, in order to select appropriate treatment options to achieve real benefits.

Endogenous ribonucleotides(RNs)and deoxyribonucleotides(dRNs)are important metabolites related to the pathogenesis of many diseases.In light of their physiological and pathological significances,a novel and sensitive pre-column derivatization method with N-(t-butyldimethylsilyl)-N-methyltri-fluoroacetamide(MTBSTFA)was developed to determine RNs and dRNs in human cells using high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).A one-step extraction of cells with 85％methanol followed by a simple derivatization reaction within 5 min at room temper-ature contributed to shortened analysis time.The derivatives of 22 nucleoside mono-,di-and tri-phosphates were retained on the typical Cig column and eluted by ammonium acetate and acetonitrile in 9 min.Under these optimal conditions,good linearity was achieved in the tested calibration ranges.The lower limit of quantitation(LLOQ)was determined to be 0.1-0.4 μM for the tested RNs and 0.001-0.1 μM for dRNs.In addition,the precision(CV)was＜15％and the RSD of stability was lower than 10.4％.Furthermore,this method was applied to quantify the endogenous nucleotides in human colorectal carcinoma cell lines HCT116 exposed to 10-hydroxycamptothecin.In conclusion,our method has proven to be simple,rapid,sensitive,and reliable.It may be used for specific expanded studies on intracellular pharmacology in vitro.

Objective:To explore the application of microvascular flow imaging (MVFI) combined with high-frequency ultrasonography in children with haemophilic arthropathy A (HAA).Methods:Retrospective study.A total of 82 children diagnosed with HAA in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2018 to October 2020 were recruited.The elbow, knee and ankle joints of each child were examined by high-frequency ultrasonography.The numbers of thickened synovial joints were recorded.Blood flow signals of the thickening of synovial joints was checked by the MVFI and power Doppler ultrasound (PDUS), respectively.Color flow signals were graded by the semi-quantitative scoring systems.The chi- square test and independent multi-group ordinal multi-category rank-sum test were used to compare the differences of MVFI and PDUS in the display of thickened synovial blood flow. Results:A total of 254 joints were involved in 82 children with HAA, including synovial hypertrophy in 188 joints, hydrops articuli in 146 joints, fibrotic septa in 66 joints, cartilage damage in 63 joints, haemosider indeposition in 45 joints, bone erosion in 25 joints, osteophytes in 15 joints and bone remodeling in 8 joints.Grade Ⅱ synovial thickened joints were the most common.The proportion of blood flow signals detected by PDUS in thickened synovial membranes was significantly higher than that detected MVFI (52.66% vs.70.21%, χ2=12.225, P<0.05). Numbers of grade 0 and Ⅰ joints with thickened synovial membranes detected by MVFI were less than those of PDUS, while the opposite result was obtained in detecting grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ joints ( H=21.158, P<0.05). Compared with PDUS, MVFI more sensitively visualized the blood flow of the thickened synovial membrane. Conclusions:MVFI can more prominently detect the thickened synovial blood flow in children with HAA.A combined application of MVFI and high-frequency ultrasonography contributes to the evaluation of children with HAA.
