Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion 1988;0(01):-
Objective Recent findings indicate that the serological and biochemical characteristics of porcine erythrocytes share many similarities with human red blood cell (hRBC). Scientists believed that humanized porcine red blood cells (pRBC) could be used as one alternative source for human blood transfusion. Methods In order to eliminate ?Gal antigen and non-?Gal on the surface of pRBC, recombinant soybean ?-Galactosidase (rS?-GalE) constructed by our lab was used to remove terminal ?Gal residues from ?Gal antigen, and mPEG-BTC was used to camouflage non-?Gal xenoantigen on the surface of pRBC. Results The carbohydrate structures of ?Gal xenoantigen of pRBC treated with rS?-GalE were completely modified. The antigenic determinants of ?Gal and non-?Gal xenoantigen on the surface of pRBC were successfully camouflaged through mPEG-BTC modification. But this modification needed higher concentration of mPEG-BTC which could cause slight structure damage. Considering this, with combination of ?Gal xenoantigen conversion by rS?-GalE and chemical camouflage of non-?Gal xenoantigen with lower concentration of mPEG-BTC, the antigenic determinants of pRBC were attenuated and hemagglutination were diminished.Conclusion The morphology, structures, functions and deformability of pRBC modified with rS?-GalE, mPEG-BTC and rS?-GalE+ mPEG-BTC were normal.

Objective To observe the chemical camouflage effects of methoxy polyethylene glycol(mPEG) on like human B antigens on Rhesus monkey red blood cell(rRBC) and to study the safety of transfusion with mPEG modified monkey RBC(mPEG rRBC).Methods rRBC were modified with 3mg/ml mPEG. The rRBC blood group and the effects of mPEG modification on blood conversion were assayed by absorption and elution methods.The structural and functional changes of mPEG rRBC were also tested.The survival fraction of mPEG modified like B rRBC in like A recipient monkey were examined by flow cytometry.The transfusion effects of mPEG modified rRBC on recipient's blood and urine were also observed.Results mPEG have been covalently bound to the surface of Rhesus monkey RBC (like human B blood group),mPEG could cover rRBC like B antigen.Transfusion of mPEG modified like B rRBC to like A Rhesus monkey had no harmful effects on the recipient.Conclusion The present study suggests that transfusion of mPEG modified RBC could be safety in experimental animals

Objective To investigate the effects on rat hearts induced by three kinds of band electromagnetic radiation (X-band, S-band and Electromagnetic pulse (EMP))and the differences of injury grade. Methods 180 healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups:control group (n = 36) and three experimental groups (n = 48) treated with X-band, S-band high power microwave and EMP, respectively. At different time-points (6 hours,1, 3, 7, 14, 28 days,6 months and 12 months) after irradiation, the rats were killed and the pathological changes of the heart tissues were observed. Results The rat hearts of three experimental groups were differently injured, but the change character was similar. The injury was more and more serious at 6 hours -7 days:deranged cardiomyofilaments, decreased glycogen, Pyknosis;lysed Purkinje cells;swelling matrix and serous exudates. The injured hearts showed convalesecence at 14-28 days, and returned to normal progressively at 6-12 months.compared with the injured hearts irradiated by the three different band wave electromagnetic at the same time: the hearts were injured most seriously irradiated by X-band high power microwave(HPM), and slighter for those by S-band HPM, most slightest for those by EMP. Those in control group were normal. Conclusions Three kinds of band wave electromagnetic radiation injure the rat hearts differently. The injury grades are X > S > EMP. The research indicates that the shorter wave length or higher frequency make rat hearts injure more seriously, and need the longer time to resume.

Objective:To analyze the effect of traditional Chinese medicine emotional nursing combined with scenario-based cognitive function training in patients with cognitive impairment secondary to stroke, providing a practical reference for improving patients′cognitive function, anxiety and depressive mood, ability to live and quality of life.Methods:This study was a quasi experimental study. The 106 patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) admitted to Zhuhai People′s Hospital (Jinan University Affiliated Zhuhai Hospital) between January 2019 and October 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group (53 cases in each group). The control group used conventional cognitive function training and the observation group used traditional Chinese medicine emotional care combined with scenario-based cognitive function training. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores, Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) scores, Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores, Self-ratingAnxiety Scale (SAS) scores, self-care rate (assessed byActivity of Daily Living scale, ADL), and Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74(GQOLI-74) scores were compared between the two groups before and after the intervention.Results:After the intervention, the MoCA and MMSE scores of the observation group were 24.34 ± 2.18 and 25.98 ± 4.16, which were higher than the 20.41 ± 3.16 and 22.18 ± 4.21 in the control group, the differences were significant ( t = - 7.45, - 4.67, both P<0.05). The SDS and SAS scores of the observation group were 24.46 ± 3.46 and 27.18 ± 3.31, which were lower than the 39.15 ± 4.15 and 39.87 ± 4.70 in the control group, the differences were significant ( t = 16.07, 19.79, both P<0.05). The self-care rate in the observation group was 94.34% (50/53) higher than 81.13% (43/53) in the control group, the difference was significant ( χ2 = 4.30, P<0.05). The quality of life in the four dimensions of physical life, social functioning, psychological functioning, and somatic functioning in the observation group were (85.88 ± 4.14), (71.85 ± 4.10), (82.77 ± 3.44) and (88.51 ± 4.79) points, which were higher than the (73.48 ± 4.11), (66.48 ± 3.57), (75.49 ± 3.80) and (79.54 ± 4.60) points in the control group, the differences were significant ( t values were - 15.48 - - 7.19, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Traditional Chinese medicine emotional nursing combined with scenario-based cognitive function training can improve cognitive function, anxiety and depression in patients with cognitive impairment secondary to stroke, and improve patients′ability to live and quality of life level.
