Objective To investigate the mechanism of acquisition of HLA-G1 antigen by NK cells.Methods K562 cells stably expressing HLA-G1 antigen (K562-G1) were constructed.K562-G1 cells, K562 cells and shed HLA-G1 were respectively co-cultured with NK-92MI cells to observe the acquisi-tion of HLA-G by NK cells.To further investigate the mechanism , NK-92MI cells with blockage HLA-G re-ceptors were further co-cultured with K562-G1 cells and HLA-G1 proteins expressing on K 562-G1 cells were blocked and then co-cultured with NK-92MI cells. Acquisition of HLA-G 1 by NK-92MI cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy .The effects of HLA-G1 expression on the cytotoxicity of NK-92MI cell were evaluated by flow cytometry analysis based on CD 107a labeling.R esults NK-92MI cells could quickly acquire HLA-G1 from K562-G1 cells in co-culture experiments .Blockade of HLA-G1 or its re-ceptors KIR2DL4 and ILT2 with specific mAbs did not affect the acquisition of HLA-G1 by NK-92MI cells. Moreover, HLA-G1 could significantly inhibit the cytotoxicity of NK cell ( P<0.01).Conclu sion NK-92MI cells acquire HLA-G1 from K562-G1 cells via trogocytosis , which is not associated with affinity be-tween receptor and ligand , extracellular domain of HLA-G1 or passive adhesion .

Objective To study the correlation between human leucocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) 14 bp insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and susceptibility to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well as poor prognosis in NSCLC.Methods A total of 113 patients with NSCLC and 150 age-and sex-matched healthy subjects were genotyped by PCR to analyze the HLA-G 14 bp insertion/deletion polymorphism in them.Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation in patients with NSCLC was detected by using amplification refractory mutation system (AMRS).Expression of HLA-G in NSCLC tissues was detected with immunohistochemistry.All patients with NSCLS were followed up to collect survival data, which were further analyzed with Kaplan-Meier method.Results The frequency of HLA-G 14 bp D/D genotype was significantly higher in the patients with NSCLC than that in the healthy subjects (x2=3.907, P=0.048, OR=1.66).Among the patients with NSCLC, HLA-G 14 bp I/I genotype carriers had a shorter overall survival time as compared with that of HLA-G 14 bp I/D or HLA-G 14 bp D/D genotype carriers (P=0.005).Patients who received chemotherapy or radiation had significantly shorter survival time than those received EGFR-targeted therapy (P=0.001).Among patients who were positive for EGFR mutation, HLA-G 14 bp D/D genotype carriers had longer survival time than those carrying HLA-G 14 bp I/I or HLA-G 14 bp I/D genotype (P=0.041).The expression of HLA-G was closely correlated with HLA-G 14 bp polymorphism in patients with NSCLC (P=0.001).Conclusion These data, reported for the first time, indicates that HLA-G 14 bp polymorphism might be a genetic factor related to the susceptibility to NSCLC and associated with survival in patient with NSCLC after excluding the interference of molecular targeted agents.

Objective:To investigate the proliferation of rat glomerular mesangial cells (GMC) influenced by different ethanol extracts of Tripterygium wilfordii HooK F.(TWHF).Methods:An HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprints of 5 different ethanol extracts of TWHF,and GMC was chosen to study the effects of different ethanol extracts of TWHF on cell proliferation.After statistical analysis,the spectrum-activity relationship was analyzed by using partial least squares regression(PLSR).Results:The HPLC fingerprints of the 5 different ethanol extracts of TWHF were established,and 32 characteristic peaks were characterized by the HPLC fingerprints.60%,70% and 95% ethanol extracts and glycosides tablets showed dose-effect relationship,and with the increase of dose,the more significant inhibition of cell proliferation was exhibited.The absorbance values of the 60% ethanol extracts at medium and high doses were lower than those of the other extracts at the same dose.The proliferation inhibition rate of GMC was used as the potency index and analyzed by PLSR,and 20 peaks were potency peaks at high dose(40 μg·L-1),17 ones were potency peaks at medium dose(20 μg·L-1) and 15 ones were potency peaks at low dose(10 μg·L-1).Conclusion:Part of the potency peaks has regular dose-effect relationship with the changes of dose.

Objective:To explore the effect of homemade aromatic masks on nausea, vomiting and pain in non-small cell lung cancer patients with chemotherapy.Methods:From October 2018 to August 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 82 patients with non-small cell lung cancer admitted to the 900th Joint Logistic Support Unit of the People's Liberation Army of China. All patients were randomly divided into control group and experimental group, each with 41 cases. Control group carried out the routine care, and experimental group was treated with the homemade aromatic mask on this basis. The Chinese version of Index of Nausea and Vomiting and Retching (INVR) and the Brief Pain Index (BPI) were used to compare nausea, vomiting and pain indicators of patients between two groups during chemotherapy.Results:On the third day of chemotherapy, the total score of nausea and vomiting, and the average pain score of experimental group were (11.00±5.46) and (1.63±1.14) respectively, lower than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-6.635, -4.781; P<0.01) . Conclusions:The homemade aromatic mask can relieve chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in non-small cell lung cancer patients with chemotherapy, and reduce the pain of patients.

Objective To produce a plastic ampoule with an opening that fits syringe adapters to allow solutions to be drawn up without needles (to avoid needle stick and sharps injuries) and to test the effectiveness of the new design in terms of residual fluid volume and risk of microorganism contamination. Methods Evaluation study based on laboratory research was adopted. For the experimental group, 30 ampoules based on the new design were produced by 3D printing. The ampoules were sterilized and filled with 2 ml sterile water. The sterile water was drawn up without the use of needles, and the wastage fluid (i.e., 2 ml minus the quantity drawn up) was calculated. A 1 ml aliquot of sterile water from each ampoule was dropped onto a nutrient agar plate, and the number of colony-forming units was assessed after 48 h. For each ampoule, the experiment was performed twice. Sixty 2 ml glass-packaged sterile water injections constituted the control group. The fluid was drawn up with a needle, and the superfluous fluid and number of colony-forming units were assessed, as in the experimental group. Results The mean wastage fluid was 0.06 ml, 95% CI was 0.05-0.07 ml in the experimental group and the superfluous fluid was 0.06 ml, 95% CI was 0.06-0.07 ml in the control group, there was no significant difference between the two groups (Z=-1.194, P=0.233). The number of colony-forming units was 8 in the experimental group and 4 in the control group, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.224). Conclusions The newly designed plastic ampoule opening could help health workers to avoid needle stick and sharps injuries when drawing up solution. The wastage fluid and microorganism contamination levels met the required standards, indicating that the new design is suitable for clinical application.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the side effects of intensity modulated radiotherapy(IMRT) and conventional radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHOD: Sixty nine cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were random selected by stages,with 32 cases in IMRT group and 37 cases in conventional radiotherapy group. The target areas in IMRT group were nasopharyngeal carcinoma, parapharyngeal space and neck lymphatic area with the fractional dose of 2.00-2.12 Gy per time, for 33-35 times. The cases in conventional radiotherapy group were given facio-cervical field radiation, DT 40-60 Gy per time, for 20-30 times. The reinforcing dosage in lateral facial field increased to DT 70 Gy in the nasopharyngeal area. The prophylactic irradiation dose of the neck was DT 50-55 Gy. RESULT: The incidence of dry mouth one year after radiotherapy in the IMRT and conventional radiotherapy groups were 9.38% (3/32) and 94.59% (35/37) respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01). The incidence of difficulty in opening mouth in the IMRT and conventional radiotherapy groups were 6.25% (2/32) and 72.97% (27/37) respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Compared with the conventional radiotherapy, IMRT may improve the control rate and obviously de creases the side effects. It could be recommended for the radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective To analyze the current status and influencing factors of occupational stress among medical staff during major public health emergencies. Methods A total of 491 medical staff in Guangzhou City was selected as the research subjects using a convenient sampling method. The Job Content Questionnaire and Effort-Reward Imbalance Questionnaire were used to evaluate the occupational stress level in the job demand-control (JDC) and effort-reward imbalance (ERI) models among the staff. Results Among the research subjects, the detection rates of occupational stress in JDC and ERI models were 50.1% and 52.5%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the detection rates of occupational stress between the two models (P>0.05). The result of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that individuals with lower monthly income and longer weekly working hours had a higher risk of occupational stress in both JDC and ERI models (all P<0.05). Staff with night shift, daily sleep time less than six hours, and dissatisfaction with the protective measures provided by the hospital had higher risk of occupational stress than those with no night shift, daily sleep time at least six hours, and satisfaction with the protective measures provided by the work place in JDC and ERI models (all P<0.01). The risk of ERI model occupational stress of personnel who had been exposed to COVID-19 cases or suspected cases was higher than that in those who had not been exposed (P<0.05). Conclusion Medical staff experience a certain level of occupational stress, characterized by both JDC and ERI models, during major public health emergencies. The main influencing factors included personal monthly income, weekly working hours, night shift, sleep time, satisfaction with protective measures and occupational exposure.

Objective To investigate the correlation and clinical significance between the serum 25-hydrovitamin D3[25-(OH)D3] level and bronchiolitis in children. Methods Sixty-one children with bronchiolitis diagnosed by Xiamen Children′s Hospital between September 2016 and June 2017 were enrolled in the study. Forty-one healthy children were used as the healthy control group. All the children were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serum 25-(OH)D3levels and serum IgE,IgG,IgA and IgM content. The clinical data of children with bronchiolitis group were recorded in the meanwhile. Results (1) Com-paredwiththehealthycontrolgroup,theserumlevelsof25-(OH)D3[(59.47±23.66)nmol/Lvs.(69.94± 25.19)nmol/L],IgM[(1.27±0.49)g/Lvs.(1.56±0.43)g/L]andIgA[(1.38±0.83)g/Lvs.(1.71± 0. 61)g/L] were significantly lower in children with bronchiolitis;while the serum IgE[(106. 59 ± 67. 74) IU/L vs. (75. 95 ± 35. 27)IU/L] was significantly higher(P<0. 05). (2)The serum levels of IgE,IgG and IgA in children diagnosed bronchiolitis with vitamin D deficiency [( 177. 37 ± 82. 72 ) IU/L, ( 5. 46 ± 1. 95)g/L and(0. 68 ± 0. 24) g/L] were obviously different from those of children diagnosed bronchiolitis with vitamin D inadequate[(94.21 ±44.21)IU/L,(7.14 ±2.82)g/L and(1.35 ±0.72)g/L] and vitamin D normal group[(79. 60 ± 44. 30)IU/L,(8. 03 ± 2. 49)g/L and(1. 57 ± 0. 78)g/L](P<0. 05). There was no significant difference about serum levels of IgE,IgG,IgA and IgM between vitamin D inadequate and vita- min D normal group(P>0. 05). (3)The wheeze time was higher in bronchiolitis children with vitamin D deficiency[(3. 97 ± 1. 01) d] than those of patients with vitamin D inadequate[(2. 41 ± 0. 79) d] and vitamin D normal group[(2. 27 ± 0. 88)d](P<0. 05). The level of venous glucocorticoid utilization was higher in bronchiolitis children with vitamin D deficiency than that of patients with vitamin D normal group (58. 82% vs. 29. 03%)(P<0. 05). There was no significant difference about clinical data between vitamin D inadequate and vitamin D normal group(P>0. 05). Conclusion The serum 25-(OH)D3levels are lower in children with bronchiolitis than those in healthy children. The lower the level of vitamin D,the more severe the children with bronchiolitis. Vitamin D deficiency is an important cause of bronchiolitis in children,which may be related to immune dysfunction effected by vitamin D deficiency.
