Objective: Compare and analyze the results of the domestic Lanyi AH600 glycated hemoglobin analyzer and other different detection systems to understand the comparability of the detection results of different detectors, and establish the best cut point of Lanyi AH600 determination of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the diagnosis of diabetes. Methods: Multi center cohort study was adopted. The clinical laboratory departments of 18 medical institutions independently collected test samples from their respective hospitals from March to April 2022, and independently completed comparative analysis of the evaluated instrument (Lanyi AH600) and the reference instrument HbA1c. The reference instruments include four different brands of glycosylated hemoglobin meters, including Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong. Scatter plot was used to calculate the correlation between the results of different detection systems, and the regression equation was calculated. The consistency analysis between the results of different detection systems was evaluated by Bland Altman method. Consistency judgment principles: (1) When the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA) of the measurement difference was within 0.4% HbA1c and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was good; (2) When the measurement difference of 95% LoA exceeded 0.4% HbA1c, and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was relatively good; (3) The measurement score was less than 80 points, the comparison consistency was poor. The difference between the results of different detection systems was tested by paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test; The best cut-off point of diabetes was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results: The correlation coefficient R² of results between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument in 16 hospitals is≥0.99; The Bland Altman consistency analysis showed that the difference of 95% LoA in Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180) was -0.486%-0.325%, and the measurement score was 94.6 points (473/500); The difference of 95% LoA in the Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant II) was -0.727%-0.612%, and the measurement score was 89.8 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.231%-0.461%, and the measurement score was 96.6 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.469%-0.479%, and the measurement score was 91.9 points. The other 14 hospitals, Lanyi AH600, were compared with 4 reference instrument brands, the difference of 95% LoA was less than 0.4% HbA1c, and the scores were all greater than 95 points. The results of paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument Arkray HA8180 (Z=1.665,P=0.096), with no statistical difference. The mean difference between the measured values of the two instruments was 0.004%. The comparison data of Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument of all other institutions had significant differences (all P<0.001), however, it was necessary to consider whether it was within the clinical acceptable range in combination with the results of the Bland-Altman consistency analysis. The ROC curve of HbA1c detected by Lanyi AH600 in 985 patients with diabetes and 3 423 patients with non-diabetes was analyzed, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.877, the standard error was 0.007, and the 95% confidence interval 95%CI was (0.864, 0.891), which was statistically significant (P<0.001). The maximum value of Youden index was 0.634, and the corresponding HbA1c cut point was 6.235%. The sensitivity and specificity of diabetes diagnosis were 76.2% and 87.2%, respectively. Conclusion: Among the hospitals and instruments currently included in this study, among these four hospitals included Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180), Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant Ⅱ), the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), and the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), the comparison between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instruments showed relatively good consistency, while the other 14 hospitals involved four different brands of reference instruments: Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong, Lanyi AH600 had good consistency with its comparison. The best cut point of the domestic Lanyi AH600 for detecting HbA1c in the diagnosis of diabetes is 6.235%.

In recent years, the use of the body's immune system for anti-tumor immunotherapy has received extensive attention. However, the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) limits the effect of immunotherapy. Therefore, overcoming the limitations of TME and immunosuppressive cells plays an important role in tumor immunotherapy. Nano agents have great potential to reprogram the immunosuppressive microenvironment and provide an effective strategy for immunotherapy. With the continuous development of active targeting nano carrier technology and the deepening of the research on drug action sites, subcellular organ targeting nano carrier materials with more accurate active targeting function have also attracted more and more attention. This review will briefly introduce the relationship between subcellular organelles and tumor, summarize the design strategy and research progress of targeted nano drug delivery system based on the characteristics of acidity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) activity, immunogenicity, and TME of immunosuppressive cells, to provide reference for the construction of subcellular pathway targeted drug delivery system in tumor immunotherapy.

【Objective】 To explore the effects and the possible mechanism of RNA targeting membrane-bound prostaglandin E2 synthase l（mPGES- 1）on proliferation，apoptosis and drug resistance of leukemia cell line K562/A.【Methods】RNA interference was used to inhibit the expression of mPGES-1 of K562/A cells. Four groups were set up as follows：untreated group（K562/A），negative control group after interference（K562/A-NC），group after interference（K562/ A-KD），and group after interference with exogenous PGE2（K562/A-KD+PGE2）.Cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Concentration of PGE2 was detected by ELISA. Proteins expression was detected by western blot.【Results】The expression of mPGES- 1 in K562/A cells was significantly down- regulated and the synthesis of PGE2 decreased（P < 0.000 1）after RNA interference. After RNA interference，the proliferation of K562/A cells was inhibited and apoptosis increased，and the sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs was enhanced（P < 0.05）. Meanwhile，the expression of β-catenin and MDR1 was decreased（P < 0.01）. Exogenous PGE2 could reverse the effect of RNA interference on proliferation ，apoptosis and drug sensitivity in K562/A cells（P < 0.05），and up-regulate the expression of β-catenin and MDR1（P < 0.01）. XAV939，an inhibitor of β-catenin，could down-regulate the expression of β- catenin and MDR1 in an dose- dependent pattern in K562/A cells（P < 0.05）.【Conclusions】RNA interference of mPGES- 1 could inhibit proliferation，induce apoptosis and reverse drug resistance in K562/A cells. The mechanism was related to reducing the synthesis of PGE2 and thus down- regulating the expression of β- catenin and MDR1. Wnt/β- catenin signal pathway may participate in the regulation of MDR1 by mPGES-1/PGE2.

【Objective】To explore the effects and the possible mechanism of KPT- 8602，a novel selective inhibitor of nuclear export protein （XPO1），on proliferation，cell cycle and apoptosis in human histiocytic lymphoma cell line U937 cells.【Methods】U937 cells were treated with different concentrations of KPT- 8602. Cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution and the apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. The proteins expression of XPO1，p-AKT，AKT，Cleaved Caspase-3，p21 were determined by Western blot. Fluorescence microscope was used in observing the intracellular location of XPO1. 【Results】 KPT- 8602 inhibited the growth of U937 cells in a dose- dependent（P<0.001）and time- dependent manner（P<0.001），but normal PBMC were unaffected. 48 h after treatment with KPT-8602，a higher proportion of cells in G1 phase was observed（P<0.001）and the apoptosis rate increased（P=0.016）with drug concentration in U937 cells. XPO1 protein expression of U937 cells was significantly higher than normal PBMC（P=0.003）. 48 h after treatment with KPT- 8602，the protein expression of XPO1 decreased（P=0.011），p-AKT decreased（P=0.011），and Cleaved Caspase- 3 increased（P=0.009）. In addition，the protein expression of p21，the cargo protein of XPO1，increased in both the nuclei and the cytoplasm（P<0.05）after treatment with KPT- 8602. XPO1 decreased in both the nuclei and the cytoplasm under the fluorescence microscope after treatment with KPT- 8602.【Conclusion】KPT- 8602 can inhibit the proliferation of U937 cells，block the cell cycle at G1 phase，and induce cell apoptosis，which may partially be attributed to the down-regulation of XPO1 and inhibition of PI3K/AKT signaling.

[Objective]Examine the expression of microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1(mPGES-1)and nuclear transcription factor kappa B p65(NF-κB p65)in diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL),assessing their correlation with clinical variables,prognosis and potential clinical valve.[Methods]The immunohistochemistry was uesd to investigate the expression of mPGES-1 and NF-κB p65 in 83 DLBCL patiens'tissues.The relationship between these two proteins and the clinical variables and prognosis of these patients was evaluated.[Results]The high expression of mPGES-1 and NF-κB p65 were observed in 65.1%(54/83)and 73.5%(61/83)cases of DLBCL,respectively.The expression level of NF-κB p65 was positively correlated with mPGES-1 expression(P<0.05).The expression of these two proteins was found to be significantly associated with B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 protein(BCL-2),higher expression of Ki67,higher lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),more extranodal lesions,advanced Ann Arbor stage and higher international prognostic index(IPI)score(P<0.05). In addition,NF-κB p65 was related with multiple myeloma oncogene 1(MUM1),pathological type(P<0.05). Both mPGES-1 and NF-κB p65 overexpression was correlated with worse overall survival(OS)while NF-κB p65 was an in-dependent prognostic factor for OS of DLBCL(P<0.05).[Conclusions]mPGES-1 and NF-κB p65 were highly expressed in DLBCL and closely linked with each other. The overexpression of mPGES-1 and NF-κB p65 was correlated with tumor progression and unfavorable prognosis in patients with DLBCL.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the surgical method and clinical efficacy for open tarsometatarsal joint injuries.

METHODSFrom March 2011 to January 2015, 21 patients with open tarsometatarsal joint injuries were treated with stage-surgery method, including 14 males and 7 females with an average age of 45.6 years old ranging from 20 to 75 years. Injury site occurred in the left foot of 13 cases and right foot of 8 cases. Traffic injury was in 5 cases, crush injury in 6 cases, heavy crushing was in 10 cases. According to Myerson to classify for tarsometatarsal joint injury, 5 cases were type B2, 9 cases were type C1, and 7 cases were type C2. And according to Gustilo to typing for soft tissue injury, 5 cases were type IIB, 10 cases were type IIIA, 6 cases were type IIIB. Fracture healingand complications were observed after operation and clinical effects were evaluated according to the midfoot score of AOFAS.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up from 11 to 40 months with an average of 16.2 months. The fracture healing time was from 10 to 16 weeks with an average of 12.3 weeks. No complications such as deep infection, nonunion and osteomyelitis were found. Midfoot score of AOFAS at last follow-up was 83.0±14.9, 9 cases got excellent results, 8 good, 2 fair, 2 poor. Two patients complicated with severe traumatic arthritis once again underwent tarsometatarsal arthrodesis.

CONCLUSIONSFor the treatment of open tarsometatarsal joint injury, reasonable debridement, comprehensive assessment for the soft tissue injury, correctly grasp the surgical indications and time of internal fixation, can reduce the incidence of deep infection and osteomyelitis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of shRNA targeting mPGES-1 on tumorigenicity of human acute leukemia K562 cells in nude mice in vivo and its mechanisms.

METHODSFor experiment 3 groups including KD group(expression of mPGES-1 in K562 cells was down-regulated by shRNA), CON (cells without any treatment) and NC group (cells treated with nonspecific-sequence shRNA) were set-up. Western blot was used to test the expression of β-catenin and cyclinD1 in cells. Then the cells of 3 groups were implanted into BALB/c nude mice subcutaneously to establish murine xenograft model. The growth state of the mice and the size of the xenograft tumor were recorded. HE staining was used to observe the morphology of xenograft tumor. Expressions of β-catenin and cyclinD1 in xenograft tumor were detected by immunohistochemical staining.

RESULTSIn vitro the expression of β-catenin and cyclinD1 in KD group were lower than the CON group and NC group (P<0.05). In vivo the tumor volume and weight of KD group were significant smaller than the other two groups (P<0.01). HE staining showed that tissues in the KD group were relatively looser in arrangement with smaller cell nucleus and less cytoplasm. The expression of β-catenin and cyclinD1 in the KD group were remarkable weak as compared with that in CON group and NC group (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONDown-regulating the expression of mPGES-1 by shRNA may significantly inhibit the tumorigenicity of K562 cells in nude mice in vivo and its mechanism may be related with the inhibition of expression of β-catenin and cyclinD1.

Objective To investigate the current situation in Chinese rheumatologic physicians' clinical diagnosis and evaluation of Takayasu's arteritis (TA).Methods Nineteen rheumatology experts and three vascular surgery specialists in China were invited to make the nationwide investigation for the first time about the diagnosis and disease activity evaluation of TA in China,through the questionnaire survey on the internet.Weighted average was used to calculate the average scores of corresponding problems.Results Chinese experts mainly adopted 1990 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria for clinical diagnosis of TA.In details,symptoms of age,limb claudication and amaurosis,signs including pulselessness or pulse weakening,vascular bruits,increasing bilateral pulse pressure and hypertension and acute phase reactants (APR) were critical to the clinical diagnosis of TA.Besides,noninvasive imaging examinations,such as computed tomography angiography (CTA),magnetic resonance angiography (MRA),vascular ultrasonography,and positron emission tomography (PET) were also of great importance.In the aspect of disease activity assessment,Chinese experts mainly used Kerr scoring tool.APR and noninvasive radiological examinations were considered with vital value.Some TA patients with carotid artery involvement were recommended using vascular ultrasonography,while others with pulmonary artery and thoracic/abdominal aorta trunk involvement were preferred CTA other than MRA.Conclusions APR and noninvasive imaging examinations were thought with great help to make clinical diagnosis and evaluation of TA for Chinese physicians.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether heart tissue-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) promotes the differentiation of cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) implanted in rat infracted myocardium to improve the cardiac structure and function.

METHODSRat CDCs were cultured by cardiac explant methods, and ECM was prepared by decelluariztion method. In a Wistar rat model of acute myocardial infarction established by ligating the left anterior descending branch, IMDM solution, ECM suspension, 10CDCs in IMDM solution, or 10CDCs in ECM suspension were injected into the infracted rat myocardium (6 rats in each group). The cardiac function of the rats was evaluated by cardiac ultrasonography, and the percentage of positive heart fibrosis area after infarction was determined with Masson staining. The differentiation of implanted CDCs in the infarcted myocardium was detected using immunofluorescence assay for the markers of cardiac muscle cells (α-SA), vascular endothelial cells (vWF) and smooth muscle cells (α-SMA).

RESULTSThree weeks after acute myocardial infarction, the rats with injection of CDCs in ECM showed the highest left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and percentage of fraction shortening with the lowest percentage of positive heart fibrosis area; implantation of CDCs with ECM resulted in significantly higher rates of CDC differentiation into cardiac muscle cells, vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cell (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONHeart-tissue derived ECM significantly promotes the differentiation of CDCs implanted in the infracted myocardium into cardiac muscle cells, vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells to improve the cardiac structure and cardiac functions in rats.
