Objective To investigate the effects of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored HDL-binding protein(GPIHBP1)on glioma growth and macrophage infiltration.Methods Initially,the expression of GPIHBP1 in glioma samples and macrophage infiltration were analyzed using TCGA data-base,and these bioinformatics results were validated in clinical tissue samples.A stable glioma cell line overexpressing GPIHBP1 was then established to further explore the effects of GPIHBP1 overexpression on glioma cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration,and invasion.Finally,the impact of GPIHBP1 over-expression on tumor growth and macrophage infiltration was verified through xenograft experiments.Results TCGA database analysis revealed that GPIHBP1 expression was higher in low-grade gliomas compared to normal tissues,while it was lower in high-grade gliomas.Additionally,the expression level of GPIHBP1 in low-grade gliomas was higher than in high-grade gliomas,which was confirmed by immu-nohistochemistry(IHC).Western blot analysis confirmed the successful construction of the GPIHBP1-overexpressing glioma cell line.CCK-8,flow cytometry,scratch and Transwell assays demonstrated that the proliferation,migration and invasion capabilities of the stable cell line were reduced compared to the control group.Xenograft experiments further showed that the tumor growth and macrophage infiltra-tion were decreased in the stable cell line.Conclusion The differential expression of GPIHBP1 in different grades of gliomas may be associated with tumor progression.Overexpression of GPIHBP1 can inhibit glioma growth,possibly by influencing the tumor microenvironment and promoting the polariza-tion of macrophages towards the antitumor M1 phenotype,thereby inhibiting glioma growth.

OBJECTIVE:To estab lish the quality standard of Tetrastigma hemsleyanum stem and leaves dispensing granules , and to determine the contents of 5 active ingredients simultaneously. METHODS : Chlorogenic acid , isoorientin and isoorientin-2′-O-rhamnoside in T. hemsleyanum stem and leaves dispensing granules were identified by TLC. The total flavonoids of the 3 batches granules were determined by UV spectrophotometry (by isoorientin ). The granule sizes ,moisture contents , dissolvability,and content uniformity were determined. Using isoorientin as internal reference ,relative correction factors of other components were established. QAMS method was adopted to determine the contents of neochlorogenic acid ,chlorogenic acid , orientin,isoorientin and isoorientin- 2′-O-rhamnoside,which were compared with the results of ESM method. RESULTS :TLC spots of chlorogenic acid ,isoorientin and isoorientin- 2′-O-rhamnoside were clear and well-separated ,without interference from negative control. The linear range of isoorientin were 7.73-61.82 μ g/mL(r=0.999 9). RSDs of precision ,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2%. The recoveries were 93.75%-97.85%(RSD=1.41%,n=6). The average percentages that the 3 batches granules could not pass through sieve No. 1 - moisture contents were 4.63%,5.18% and 4.03%(n=3). were dissolved within 5 min ,and content uniformity were 4.8%-5.0%. Which were all in line with the relevant provi-sions of granules in 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia . The linear range of 5 ingredients were 2.325-93 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),5.125-205 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),1.150- 46 μg/mL(r=0.999 3),2.625-105 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),4.725-189 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),respectively. RSD of precision ,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 3%. The recoveries were 99.78%-106.13%(RSD=2.33%,n=6),95.07%-103.32% (RSD=2.72%,n=6),97.17%-105.43%(RSD=2.98%,n=6),95.52%-101.33%(RSD=2.46%,n=6),99.42%-105.56% (RSD=2.34%,n=6). Using isoorientin as internal reference ,relative correction factors of neochlorogenic acid ,chlorogenic acid , isoorientin and isoorientin- 2′-O-rhamnoside were 0.731,0.805,0.821,0.590,respectively. The contents were 0.828-1.123, 2.379-3.118,0.281-0.880,1.039-1.393,2.121-3.209 mg/g by QAMS method ,while the contents were 0.803-1.099,2.345-3.085, 0.269-0.872,1.309-1.393,2.113-3.201 mg/g by ESM method ,there was no significant difference in the content determination results between QAMS and ESM method (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS :Established quality standard is simple and rapid ,and can be used for quality control of T. hemsleyanum stem and leaves dispensing granules. Established QAMS method is accurate and efficient,and it can be used for simultaneous determination of 5 active ingredients of T. hemsleyanum stem and levels dispensing granules.

Objective:To investigate the common allergens in children with respiratory allergic diseases in Guangdong and provide the basis for preventing and treating respiratory allergic diseases.Methods:A total of 254 serum samples were collected retrospectively from children with allergic rhinitis and (or) asthma in the pediatric clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University or Boai Hospital of Zhongshan City from August 2019 to August 2020 and tested positive for at least one allergens by ImmunoCAP 1000 or skin prick test. There were 173 males and 81 females, with a median age (interquartile interval) of 7 (4.00, 9.75) years. Specific IgE against eighteen common allergen were tested by magnetic particle chemiluminescence immunoassay. Statistical analysis using χ 2 test. Results:The positive rate of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (85.0%, 215/254) was the highest, followed by D. farinae (83.5%, 212/254), egg white (19.3%, 49/254), milk (14.6%, 37/254), German cockroach (14.2%, 36/254) and ox-eye daisy (12.6%, 32/254). Dust mites were the most common allergens in patients with allergic rhinitis / allergic asthma / allergic rhinitis and asthma. The positive rates of D. pteronyssinus (95.4% vs. 91.7% vs. 71.0%, χ 2=23.257, P<0.001), D. farinae (95.4% vs. 90.6% vs. 67.7%, χ 2=26.916, P<0.001), mugwort (10.8% vs. 9.4% vs. 1.1%, χ 2=7.535, P=0.023), and ox-eye daisy (21.5% vs. 14.6% vs. 4.3%, χ 2=10.876, P=0.004) in allergic rhinitis combined with asthma group and allergic rhinitis group were significantly higher than those in allergic rhinitis group. The positive rates of D. pteronyssinus (96.2% vs. 84.0% vs. 53.5%, χ 2=46.343, P<0.001), D. farinae (96.2% vs. 81.5% vs. 48.8%, χ 2=52.756, P<0.001) and German cockroach (17.7% vs. 14.8% vs. 2.3%, χ 2=6.313, P=0.043) in > 6 years old group were significantly higher than those in > 3 years old group and > 3-6 years old group, while the sIgE positive rates of egg white (41.9% vs. 21.0% vs. 10.8%, χ 2=20.281, P<0.001) and milk (41.9% vs. 16.0% vs. 4.6%, χ 2=36.227, P<0.001) in ≤3 years old group were significantly higher than those in > 3-6 years old group and > 6 years old group. In addition, there were significant positive correlations between D. pteronyssinus and D. farinae, mugwort and ox-eye daisy, cat dander and horse dander, ox-eye daisy and dandelion, egg white and milk, timothy grass and sesame ( r s≥0.511, P < 0.01). With the increase of the class of house dust mite allergen, the sIgE positive rates of mugwort (0.0% vs. 1.5% vs. 10.8%, χ 2=9.714, P=0.008), ox-eye daisy (0.0% vs. 4.4% vs. 19.6%, χ 2=16.195, P<0.001), cat dander (0.0% vs. 7.4% vs. 18.2%, χ 2=11.459, P=0.003) and horse dander (0.0% vs. 1.5% vs. 15.5%, χ 2=15.443, P < 0.001) increased significantly, while the sIgE positive rate of milk (29.0% vs. 16.2% vs. 10.1%, χ 2=8.792, P=0.012) decreased significantly. Conclusions:Dust mite is the main allergen in children with respiratory allergic diseases in Guangdong, and ox-eye daisy is the main pollen allergen. The sensitization patterns of allergens varied in different ages and diseases, and children with respiratory allergic diseases should regularly detect allergens and pay attention to avoid them.

In China, the prevalence of allergic diseases is increasing, but allergy research and allergy diagnosis technologies are still in their infancy, posing certain hurdles to clinical diagnosis and treatment. The detection of allergen is essential for the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases. Clarifying the aetiology and risk factors of allergic diseases is critical in order to provide targeted environmental control and therapy for allergic diseases, as well as reduce patient pain and financial burden. In this study, allergen detection technologies and diagnosis strategies are described in order to provide direction for clinicians and laboratory technicians, improve allergic diseases diagnosis, and guide allergic disease therapy.
