Objective: To study the effects of physical and chemical factors on hairy root of Panax ginseng and its glycoside production. Methods: The cell growth index and its glycoside yield in different culture condition such as different plant hormones mixed, mediums and time were compared. Results: After hairy root of Panax ginseng was precultivated on the MS medium with IBA (0.5%) at first 72 hours. the culture was cultured on the MS medium. During 6 weeks, dry weight of hairy root increased by 98.74 times, and the content of glycoside synthesized by hairy root is 5.190% and Re+Rg1 is 0.3271%, respectively. Conclusion:We have achieved the best condition of hairy root of Panax ginseng.

Objective Cloning and sequencing of the human neurotrophin-4(hNT-4) gene.Methods With the chromosomal DNA of human blood lymphocytes as template,hNT-4 coding genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and recombinated into phage vector pGEM-T Easy,which were sequenced by using Sanger's single stranded DNA terminal termination method.Results The sequence of the cloned gene is completely the same as that reported in the literature(GenBank data base,M86528).Conclusion This study successfully cloning and sequenced the gene of mhNT-4,and it would be convenient for us to study the expression of mhNT-4 in eukaryote,and to continue the research on the gene therapy of Alzheimer's disease intensively.This study indicate that the hNT-4 is conservative in different races and individuals.

Objective To construct NT4-GFP-Ant fusional reporting gene and the vector of NT4-GFP-Ant recombinant adeno-associated virus(AAV).Methods The GFP gene was cloned by using PCR and T-vector cloning method.The positive clone was identified by the restriction enzymes,and then the cloned amplified fragments were sequenced and analyzed.The resulting gene of GFP and Ant,PBV220/NT4 were connected by DNA ligase,and thus PBV220/NT4-GFP-Ant was constructed,then the NT4-GFP-Ant fragment was gained and identified by the restriction enzymes.The resulting gene of NT4-GFP-Ant fragment was inserted into the EcoRⅠ-BamHⅠsite of vector plasmid pSSHG to construct the vector of NT4-GFP-Ant recombinant AAV.Results A 730 bp fragment of DNA was gained when T-easy/GFP was cut by the restriction enzyme EcoRⅠ.The cloned GFP gene was coincident with the sequence in GenBank.A 1 000 bp fragment of DNA was gained when pBV220/NT4-GFP-Ant was cut by the restriction enzymes BamHⅠ/EcoRⅠ.A 1 000 bp fragment of DNA was gained when PSSHG/NT4-GFP-Ant was cut by the restriction enzymes BamHⅠ/EcoRⅠ.Conclusion GFP gene is cloned successfully,NT4-GFP-Ant gene and PSSHG/NT4-GFP-Ant recombinant AAV vector are constructed successfully.

Objective: To investigate the possible role of IL17-and IL22-secreting cells combined with patch test for the prediction of formaldehyde-induced occupational allergic contact dermatitis(OACD). Methods: From October 2014 to October 2016, totally 131 formaldehyde-exposed workers(49 cases with inflammatory skin lesions,82 ones without inflammatory skin lesions)and 63 non-exposed health controls were recruited. Patch-test was performed in 49 cases of formaldehyde-exposed workers with inflammatory skin lesions. Circulating IL17+and IL22+Tcell subsets were assessed by flow cytometry(FCM). Results: Among 49 cases of formaldehyde-exposed workers with inflammatory skin lesions,32 cases were with positive patch-test while 17 cases with negative patch-test. The proportions of circulating CD3+CD8-IL17+ and CD3+CD8-IL22+ cells from patch-test(+) formaldehyde-exposed workers were significantly higher than that of patch-test(-)group, formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions and non-exposed controls(P<0.05). The proportions of circulating CD3+CD8-IL17+ and CD3+CD8-IL22+cells from patch-test(-)group and formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions were also higher than that of non-exposed controls(P<0.05). But there was no significant difference between patch-test(-)group and formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions(P>0.05). Peripheral CD3+CD8+IL17+and CD3+CD8+IL22+cells were also detected in spite of small amounts. The percentages of CD3+CD8+IL17+and CD3+CD8+IL22+ cells inperipheral blood from patch-test(+)formaldehyde-exposed workers were enhanced significantly, compared to patch-test(-)group, formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions and non-exposed controls(P<0.05). The proportions of circulating CD3+CD8+IL17+ and CD3+CD8+IL22+ cells from patch-test(-)group and formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions were significantly higher than that of non-exposed controls(P<0.05). But there was no significant difference between patch-test(-) group and formaldehyde-exposed workers without skin lesions(P>0.05). Conclusion The proportions of circulating IL17+ and IL22+T cells(both CD8-and CD8+)are enhanced in formaldehyde-exposed workers at proposed OEL, possibly involved in the development of formaldehyde-induced OACD.The detection of IL17-and IL22-secreting cells combined with formaldehyde patch test help to screen the workers with allergy property and prevent OACD.

Objective:To investigate the effect and safety of one-staged hybrid surgery in the treatment of complicated Stanford B aortic dissection.Methods:246 consecutive patients who underwent one-staged hybrid technique with complicated type B aortic dissection (cTBAD) between January 2014 and July 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The perioperative mortality and morbidity of the hybrid technique was assessed and the early results of follow up were evaluated.Results:The mean age of patients was(57.1±11.2)years old, and 175 (71.1%) were male. There were 166 cases of left common carotid artery-left subclavian artery vessels bypass + TEVAR (A group), operation time(62±8)min, post-operated hospitalization(5.2±1.3)days; 62 cases of right common carotid artery-left common carotid artery vessels bypass+ left common carotid artery-left subclavian artery vessels bypass + TEVAR (B group), operation time(88±12)min, post-operated hospitalization(6.1±1.8)days; 18 cases of debranch + TEVAR, operation time(236±36)min, post-operated hospitalization(8.8±2.1)days. 246 patients underwent hybrid procedure successfully (The technique success rate was 100%). 1 patient(0.4%)with traumatic aortic dissection (with cerebral trauma) died after operation 7 days. The average follow-up period was 5 years(30.3±7.1)xmonths. 236 patients(96%) without endoleak, 10 patients(4%)with proximal endoleak, 5 patients with regular follow-up, 5 patients with surgical treatment during one year (3 patients with re-TEVAR; 2 patients with opening operation); 25 patients(10.2%)incision hematomas, all these patients settled with closely observing and conservative treatment, and all these patients without reintervention. The rate of second intervention was 2% (5/246) the patency of bridging vessel was 99.7% (343/344). There was no paraplegia and stroke during perioperative period.Conclusion:One-staged hybrid surgery has a good short-term and med-term efficacy and safety for complicated Stanford B aortic dissection.

Objective:To explore the value of fusion imaging in the treatment of complex aortic pathology.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of 29 patients with complex aortic pathology who underwent treatment with endovascular aortic repair using fusion imaging (FI+ ) technique or without FI (FI-) between June 2015 and June 2021. The perioperative outcomes and morbidity of the FI was assessed and the early results of follow up were evaluated.Results:The mean age of patients was (70.3±7.3) years old, and 24 (82.8%) males. Technical success was 96.5% (28/29). The FI+ group patients had lower procedure time[FI+ , (209±53) min vs. FI-, (306±24)min, P=0.005]and ionic contrast medium[(169±23)ml vs. (201±20)ml, P=0.040]. Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI)[3.4%(FI+ 0 vs. FI-6.7%, P=0.33)], and operation-related reintervention[6.9%(FI+ 0 vs. FI-13.3%, P=0.16)] were similar. There were no significant differences in blood loss, fluoroscopy time. Conclusion:FI technique improves the accuracy during positioning in complex endovascular aortic repair, could reduce aortic related reintervention rate, operation time and contrast dose. Further studies and development are needed to obtain optimal image quality and higher precision.
