Abstract: Objective　To investigate the composition and diversity of midgut microbial community of Haemaphysalis longicornis infected with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV)． Methods　The midgut DNA of three group Haemaphysalis longicornis infected with SFTSV was extracted, and the 16S rDNA gene of the sample was sequenced by HiSeq platform. The composition and diversity of endosymbiotic microbial community were clarified by OTU cluster analysis and alpha diversity analysis. Results　The midgut microbial clusters of the three groups infected with SFTSV were 143, 113, 163 OTUs respectively; the sparsity curve and abundance grade curve showed that the data had sufficient sequencing depth, and the midgut of Haemaphysalis longicornis infected with SFTSV was rich in microbial composition, but the species distribution was uneven. The analysis of microbial community composition showed that Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Actinobacteria were the main dominant bacteria at the phyla level. At the class level, Gammaproteobacteria, Bacilli, Betaproteobacteria and Actinomycetia were the main dominant bacteria. At the order level, Legionellales, Bacillales, Burkholderiales and Actinomycetales were the main dominant orders. At the family level, Coxiellaceae, Bacillaceae, Moraxellaceae and Rhodococcaceae were the main dominant families. At the genus level, the relative abundance of Coxiella was the highest, followed by Aeribaillus and Azonexus. Alpha diversity analysis showed that the average Shannon index was 139.67, the average Simpson index was 0.48, the average Chao index was 145.06, and the average ACE index was 147.11. Conclusions　The species diversity of intestinal microorganisms in Haemaphysalis longicornis infected with SFTSV is rich. The results provide a basis for further exploring the interaction between intestinal microbes of Haemaphysalis longicornis and SFTSV and developing new ideas for the prevention and control of ticks and tick-borne diseases.

Objective To observe the effects of genistein on PCNA expression and cell cycle in fibroblasts derived from human hypertrophic scar in order to explore the mechanism of its inhibition on hypertrophic scar (HS) fibroblast proliferation. Methods The human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts were cultured in vitro. Genistein with various concentrations (25, 50, 100 μmol/L) was co-cultured in the medium for 48 hours. The expression of PCNA was detected with immunocytochemical staining method and the cell cycle was measured with flow cytometry. Results Genistein could significantly decrease PCNA expression in HS fibroblasts, especially when its concentration at 50 μmol/L or 100 μmol/L. The cell percentage of G0～G1 phase decreased with drug′s concentration, and G2～M percentage increased conversely, implying the suspension of mitosis. In 100 μmol/L group, most cells blocked at S phase and a hypodiploid apoptosis peak could be observed ahead of G1 phase. Conclusion Genistein can inhibit the proliferation of human hypertrophic scar by blocking cell division as well as decreasing DNA synthesis.

Both sides of the picornavirus genome have 5'-untranslated region (5'UTR) and 3'- untranslated region (3'UTR). This study demontrated that both the 5'-and 3'-UTR can form complex structures, such as stem-loop, clover and pseudoknot structure, These structures play an important role in the regulaton of the replication and translation of the viruses. This article reviewed the progress of research on the structure and function of picornavirus' 3'-UTR over recent years.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new drug,human urinary kallidinogenase,against acute brain infarction.Method A 15-center,randomized,double-blinded and 3:1 placebo-controlled study was carried out.Acute brain infarction within 48 hours of onset in the territory of the middle cerebral artery were indicated as subjects;kallidinogenase or placebo which was dissolved in 50 ml saline,was slowly injected intraveousely within 30 minutes daily for 3 weeks.The European Stroke Scale and Barthel Index were used to evaluate the neurological deficit and the activities of daily living(ADL),followed by a follow-up at the end of the third month.Results 446 patients were enrolled,who completed ITT analysis,including 330 in kallidinogenase group and 116 in placebo group,meanwhile 421 proceeded with PP analysis(311 and 110 respectively).There were no significant differences of the baseline data between the 2 groups.At the end of treatment,the ESS scores increased by 55.1%?33.0% and 44.7%?32.8% respectively in kallidinogenase group(KG)and placebo group(PG,P=0.0022),the difference being significant.PP analysis had similar results.As for ADL,follow-up 90 days after the treatment showed 374 cases followed,280 in KG and 94 in PG;1 died in PG,while none in KG.In KG,the cases whose BI≥50 were significantly more than those in PG(P=0.0228).Adverse events possibly or definitely attributable to the drug were observed in 27 cases(7.74%),mostly were mild,such as palpitation,flush,dizziness, nausea etc,without special management needed.Only 2 died which was confirmed not correlated to kallidinogenase,and another 2 cases of sudden blood pressure drop were observed.The blood pressure drop, quickly restoring soon after the withdrawal of kallidinogenase and use of hemopiesic drugs,was considered to be caused by the combination use of anti-hypertensive drug ACEI and quick infusion speed.Conclusion Kallidinogenase is efficacious for acute brain infarction in improving the neurological deficits,which is safe in clinical use.

Objective: To observe the effect of mFOLFOX7 protocolon advanced gastric cancer. Methods: Forty-eight patients with advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into two groups: conventional treatment group (24 cases, surgery-adjuvant chemotherapy)and synthesized treatment group (24 cases, mFOLFOX7 neoadjuvant chemotherapy-surgery-adjuvant). The effect and toxic reaction of mFOLFOX7 on the patients with advanced gastric cancer were observed, and the R0 resection rate, complications incidence, survival rate were compared between two groups. Results: In synthesized treatment group, total effective rate was 58.3% . Fourteen patients (58.3%)achieved R0resection in synthesized group were compared with 7 patients (29.2%)achieved R0 resection in conventional group (P0.05).Conclusion: mFOLFOX7 neoadjuvant chemotherapy protocol is low toxic reaction. It can improve R0 resection rate of advanced gastric cancer, complications correlated with surgery are not increased. But it can’t improve the survivalrate.

Objective To evaluate the immunogenicity and immunoprotective effect of heat shock protein 60 kDa (SjHSP60) of Schistosoma japonicum in mice after immunization and challenge infection, and explore the mechanism. Methods B cell/an?tibody?related databases and analysis tools were used to predict B?cell epitopes of SjHSP60. The mice were immunized with the recombinant SjHSP60 and challenged with S. japonicum cercariae. SjHSP60?specific antibodies in serum were detected by ELI?SA. The level of splenocyte proliferation was determined by 3H?TdR incorporation. Ex vivo suppression assay was performed to in?vestigate the effects of CD4 +CD25 + regulatory T cells (Tregs) induced by SjHSP60. Results SjHSP60 possessed multiple pre?dominant regions of B?cell epitopes. SjHSP60 induced a significant increase in both SjHSP60?specific IgG levels (P < 0.01) and splenocyte proliferation (P < 0.01) with a higher IFN?γ production (P < 0.01). However, the immunization with SjHSP60 resulted no significant reduction in adult worms (P > 0.05) and liver?accumulated eggs (P > 0.05) in S. japonicum?infected mice. Ex vivo assay showed that CD4+CD25+ Tregs from SjHSP60?immunized mice enhanced immunosuppressive activity. Conclusion SjH?SP60 has a dual role in host immune system, being involved in the induction of dominant humoral and cellular immune responses as well as in the enhancement of immunosuppression.

ObjectiveTo investigate the detection results of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% in patients with knee infection after operation. Methods The study was conducted from March 2012 to January 2015. Twenty patients were collected in the study. The values of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% were compared and analyzed between pre-operation and post-operation of 1,3 and 7 days. Results The values of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% in the post-operation of 1 day were higher than those in the pre-operation,and there were statistically significances (P < 0.05). The values of ESR in the post-operation of 3 and 7 days were higher than that in the pre-operation, with statistically significances(P < 0.05). However,the values of WBC,CRP and GR% in the post-operation of 3 and 7 days were no statistically significances compared with those in the pre-operation(P > 0.05). Conclusion WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% have good reference value for early diagnosis and treatment,which can be used as screen testing indexes in the early knee infection.

Objective To discuss the MRI findings of common complications following hip arthroplasty and their association with operative and pathological findings to improve the early diagnosis and etiological differential diagnosis for common complications following hip arthroplasty. Methods Forty-six patients with hip arthroplasty complication were included in this study. We observed prosthesis location, signal changes between prosthesis and bone, and periprosthesis signal changes, signal changes of articular capsule, adjacent soft tissue and bone on MR images. Diagnostic value of MRI in detecting hip arthroplasty complication was evaluated with operative and pathological findings as reference standard. Results Complications following hip arthroplasty included aseptic loosening (n=26), osteolysis (n=12), infection (n=12), heterotopic ossification (n=4), pseudoneoplasm (n=4) and periarthroplasty fracture (n=1). The MRI finding suggestive of aseptic loosening in 24 cases was a smooth intermediate signal intensity layer along the interface. Osteolysis is seen as soft tissue signal intensity material replacing normal high signal intensity fatty marrow in 12 cases. Bone marrow edema, bone destruction, fluid collection, estracapsular collections, periprosthetic muscle edema, and sinus were predictors of infection. On MRI, mature heterotopic ossification had the appearance of cancellous bone in 5 cases. Pseudoneoplasm represents fluid signal intensity with intermediate signal intensity pseudocapsule in 5 cases. Periprosthetic fracture included hypointesense fracture lines, periosteal reaction, and periprosthetic muscle edema in one patient. Conclusion MRI is useful in detecting osseous and soft-tissue abnormalities in patients with hip implants.
