Rare diseases, also known as "orphan diseases", refer to diseases with very low incidence. Countries and regions define rare diseases according to epidemiological standards, economic standards of rare drugs and disease severity. The World Health Organization (WHO) has suggested the prevalence rate of less than 6.5 to 10 per 10 000 people to define rare diseases. In May 2018, "China's First List of Rare Diseases" was released, including 121 rare diseases. Most rare diseases are hereditary diseases with early onset, severe disease, and poor prognosis. About 75% of rare genetic diseases occur in the neonatal period or childhood, which are important part of human birth defects and brings a huge burden to society and families. The effective prevention and treatment of rare diseases is one of the important goals of building a "Healthy China". With the development of molecular biology technology and the continuous research and development of advanced medical products in the field of gene therapy, the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases has risen to a new level, which provides a possibility for the cure of some rare diseases. In China, most rare diseases rely on imported drugs, which cost a lot and bring heavy economic burden to patients. Improving the medical insurance system for rare diseases has become a difficult point in the current medical reform. This paper mainly discusses the definition of rare diseases, the research status, efforts and future development direction of rare diseases in China, in order to deepen the understanding and response of medical workers and the whole society to rare diseases.

Objective To observe the effects of different concertrations of calcifying nanoparticles (CNP) on growth and proliferation of human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2),and to explore the effects of autophagy of human renal tubular epithelial cells induced by CNP. MethodsNormal growth HK-2 cells were cultured in vitro and the culture medium was changed to serum-free medium after cell growth to confluence,CNP with different concentrations were then added and the cell proliferation inhibition was measured by MTT assay after 12,24,48 and 72 h co-incubation.EGFP-LC3 express plasmid was transfected into HK-2 cells,CNP with certain concentration was then added after 24h incubation.The formation of autophagosomes and their adherence to cells were observed by electron microscopy,and EGFP-LC3 staining was used to detect the formation of autophagosome by flourescence microscopy after 3,6,24 and 48 h co-incubation. ResultsCNP presented a concentration-dependent cell proliferation inhibition on HK-2 cells,the inhibitory ratio in cell proliferation was 14.5 ％ after 48 h co-incubation when CNP density was 0.05 mg/ml,and the inhibitory ratio was 21.5％ after 72 h co-incubation when CNP density was 0.1 mg/ml.Autophagosome formation and CNP adherence to cell surface could be observed by electron microscopy 6 h after CNP was added to the DMEM medium.The LC3-positive dots were observed in HK-2 cells incubated with CNP.Conclusions Autophagy of HK-2 could be activated by co-incubation with CNP,which may play an important role in the formation of nephrolithiasis.

Aim To prepare sterically stabilized liposomes modified with chimeric TNT-3 monoclonal antibody (chTNT-3) and investigate their immunoreactivity and in vitro targeting. Methods An endgroup functionalized polyethylene glycol-lipid derivative (pyridylthiopropionoylamino-polyethylene glycolhydrogenated soy phosphatidylethanolamine, PDP-PEG-HSPE ) was synthesized and incorporated to sterically stabilized liposomes. After mild thiolysis of the PDP groups by dithiothreitol, liposomes were covalently linked with maleimide-derivatized chTNT-3 and formed sterically stabilized immunoliposomes.Coupling efficiency, antibody density, size distribution, immunoreactivity of chTNT-3-modified sterically stabilized liposomes (chTNT-3-SLs) and specific binding properties of the chTNT-3-SLs to fixed Raji cells were determined, separately. Results Higher initial Ab/PDP-PEG-HSPE molar ratios resulted in higher antibody density on the surface of liposomes but lower coupling efficiency. The optimal coupling efficiency of 71% was obtained while antibody density in liposome was 106 μg antibody/μmol phospholipids (as initial antibody/PDP-PEG-HSPE = 1: 10). The chTNT-3-SLs had a narrow size distribution after extrusion and the mean size of this immunoliposomes was (115 ± 33) nm. The immunoreactivity of chTNT-3 can be preserved after efficient attachment of maleimide-derivatized chTNT-3 to the surface of liposomes. But calculated per antibody concentration, the immunoreactivity of chTNT-3-SLs would obviously decrease compared to that of chTNT-3 or chTNT-3 derivatives. Significantly higher binding of chTNT-3-SLs to fixed Raji cells directed by chTNT-3 was obtained compared to other preparations in serial dilutions (P＜0.01). Conclusion chTNT-3-SLs prepared by PDP-PEG-HSPE method remained most immunoreactivity of chTNT-3 and was able to bind nuclear antigens in vitro.

Tumor vaccine is one of the most promising therapeutic strategies in tumor immunotherapy. It promotes the antigen presentation process by delivering tumor antigen and then activates the anti-tumor immune response. As a new class of vaccines, messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines can activate the immune system to achieve the purpose of immunotherapy by delivering the mRNA sequence of a specific antigen into the body and expressing the corresponding antigen protein. Compared with traditional vaccines, mRNA vaccines have the advantages of a short production cycle, high effectiveness, and strong immunogenicity. In recent years, the application of mRNA vaccines in tumor immunotherapy has attracted widespread attention, but the instability and low delivery efficiency of mRNA limit its application. Nano delivery system can effectively solve the problem of mRNA vaccine delivery, greatly promote the research process and clinical application of mRNA tumor vaccines, and has become a hot spot in the research of mRNA vaccines. In this review, we introduced the mRNA tumor vaccines, focusing on the application of nano delivery system in mRNA tumor vaccines, in order to provide new ideas and new methods for the efficient delivery of mRNA tumor vaccines and tumor immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Chinese herbal medicine compound (Kaiyuqingwei Decoction) improving islet cells function of type 2 diabetes. Methods The models of type 2 diabetic rats were established by feeding with high-fat-diet and injecting low dosage of streptozotocin (15 mg/kg BW). Rats were randomly divided into model group, Kaiyuqingwei group, and Rosiglitazone group and normal control was established, at the same time, fasting and post-glucose loading 2 hours blood glucose, serum fructosamine and basal insulin were determined. Euglycemic hyperinsulin clamp technique was adopted to evaluate insulin sensitivity of periphery tissues, and intravenous glucose tolerance test to evaluate islets function. Adopting immunohistochemistry stain (EnVision) and computer image analysis technique to determine the expression of insulin, insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1 in islets. Results There were insulin resistance, dysfunction of islet cells and obvious increase of blood glusose in model rats. All these could be improved by Kaiyuqingwei Decoction and Rosiglitazone. Meanwhile, immunohistochemistry stain of islets demonstrated that Kaiyuqingwei Decoction could increase expression of IRc and IRS-1. Conclusion Kaiyuqingwei Decoction have a certain positive role in improving glucose metabolism of type 2 diabetic rats. The mechanism include two aspects, one is elevation of insulin sensitivity, another is amelioration of dysfunction of islet cells. One of the important mechanisms of amelioration of dysfunction in islet cells is amelioration of insulin signal transduction in pancreatic islets.
