BACKGROUND:Smal-needle-knife therapy for knee osteoarthritis has no uniform location, operation and mechanisms of action. Studies have proved that exercise therapy can enhance muscle strength, increase stability of the knee, improve joint range of motion, and effectively relieve pain.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effect of smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy for treatment of knee osteoarthritisvia a randomized controled clinical trial.
METHODS:122 patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n=61; smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy) and control group (n=61; low-frequency therapy combined with exercise therapy). Then, clinical efficacy in the two groups were assessed by statistical analysis of visual analog scale, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), sweling degree of the knee joint, quadriceps circumference, flexion and extension of the knee joint before and after treatment. Meanwhile, adverse reactions in patients were recorded for safety evaluation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The visual analog scale and WOMAC scores in the two groups were both significantly improved at 2 weeks after treatment (P < 0.05). Moreover, these scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (2) At 12 weeks after treatment, the WOMAC score in the treatment group was better than that in the control group (P< 0.05), and the range of motion of the knee joint was also better in the treatment group than the control group (P< 0.05). (3) According to the full analysis set and per protocol set, the total efficiency rats in the treatment group were both superior to those in the control group (P< 0.001). (4) In the treatment group, there were four cases of surgery, four cases lost to folow-up, and two cases of mild adverse reactions; in the control group, there were six cases of surgery, three cases lost to folow-up, and no adverse reaction. Taken together, smal-needle-knife therapy and physiotherapy both have certain clinical effects on knee osteoarthritis. Smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy is superior to physiotherapy combined with exercise therapy in the total efficiency. Folow-up results of 3 months have been confirmed, but long-term effects need further exploration.

It′s reported that RNA-binding proteins ( RBP) play key roles in post-transcriptional regulation of eukaryotic genes.The aberrations of RBP are associated with a large number of human disorders , particularly autoimmune and neuro-logic diseases .The interaction between RNA and proteins has been widely explored since the development of the method known as RNA immunoprecipitation with differential display or microarray analysis (RIP-ChIP) around the year of 2000. Since then, diverse derivatives of the RIP-ChIP, such as ultraviolet crosslinking and immunoprecipitation ( CLIP), high-throughput sequencing of CLIP cDNA library (HITS-CLIP), photoactivatable -ribonucleoside-enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation ( PAR-CLIP) , and individual nucleotide resolution CLIP ( iCLIP ) have been developed .All these methods have some advantages over the original RIP-ChIP and greatly facilitate the study of RBP-RNA interactions .Addi-tionally , aided by the next-generation sequencing , transcriptome-wide identification of RBP target sites has become possible and the RNA-binding site resolution of RBP has also improved to some degree .We introduced the basic principles and processes of the interactions between proteins and RNA , focusing on the advantages , disadvantages and prospect of the present genome-wide version of CLIP .

Objective To design and construct a new non-fusion soluble expression vector pTIG-mSUMO(small ubiq-uitin-related modifier) using the widely used solubility promoting protein SUMO and based on the translational coupling phenomenon in order to enable the non-fusion soluble expression of the broad-spectrum antiviral protein RA in Escherichia coli by pTIG-mSUMO.Methods The smt3 gene coding for SUMO protein was cloned from yeast genome DNA by PCR. After directed-site silent mutation to eliminate the EcoRⅠsite, the mutant mSUMO was inserted into pET-22b to obtain the translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO.The RA was subject to PCR amplification and cloned into the pTIG-mSUMO to obtain the expression plasmid pTIG-mSUMO/RA which was supposed to direct the soluble expression of RA by the translational coupling with mSUMO.Results A translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO which could di-rect/drive the SUMO and heterogonous protein non-fusion expression simultaneously was designed and constructed.The Western blotting result indicated that pTIG-mSUMO could direct the high-level expression of RA, around 40%of which was soluble.Conclusion A translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO is obtained.After coupling with SUMO, RA is highly expressed in E.coli and both the expression level and solubility are greatly improved.pTIG-mSUMO might contrib-ute to soluble expression of other proteins.

We reconstructed the erythromycin macrocyclic lactone (6-deoxyerythronolide B, 6dEB) synthesis pathway in Escherichia coli. We first cloned all the genes needed to synthesize the 6dEB into multi-gene co-expressed vectors. Then using the recognition sequences of isoschizomers Xba I/Spe I of vectors, we assembled the related genes into a series multiple-genes recombinant plasmids pBJ144, pBJ130. The recombinant plasmids pBJ144, pBJ130 were cotransformed into BAP1 to get the recombinant BAP1(pBJ144/pBJ130). SDS-PAGE analysis showed that individual genes were expressed correctly. After inducing at low temperature, adding propionate as substrate, we validated the crude product by mass spectrometry and the 6dEB yield was about 10 mg/L. These results indicated that the synthetic pathway of 6dEB was successfully assembled and reconstructed in Escherichia coli, which will greatly facilitate the reconstruction of whole erythromycin synthesis pathway and finally help to establish a stable research platform for developing of new derivatives of erythromycin and combinatorial biosynthesis of polyketide-type antibiotics.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of blood oxygenation level-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging(BOLD-fMRI)in the protection of visual function during postoperative radiotherapy for occipital lobe gliomas. Methods Twenty-eight patients with occipital lobe gliomas receiving postoperative radiotherapy from 2014 to 2016 were enrolled as subjects. All patients underwent computed tomography(CT) simulation,conventional MRI,and BOLD-fMRI before radiotherapy. The location and scope of the visual cortex on 3DT1anatomical images were used to guide the labeling of the visual cortex on simulated CT images. A visual cortex protective radiotherapy plan and a conventional radiotherapy plan were made by intensity-modulated radiotherapy. The feasibility of the visual cortex protective radiotherapy plan was evaluated using conformity index(CI),homogeneity index(HI),Dmax,and Dmeanfor planning target volume(PTV)and Dmaxand Dmean to the visual cortex. Results For the two plans, if the effective dose to target volume was guaranteed and the doses to conventional organs at risk were acceptable, there were no significant differences in CI or HI for PTV between them(P=0.874,P=0.602).Compared with the conventional radiotherapy plan,the Dmaxand Dmeanto the ipsilateral visual cortex were reduced by 8.40% and 9.25%, respectively, while the Dmaxand Dmeanto the contralateral visual cortex were reduced by 13.26% and 14.77%, respectively, in the protective radiotherapy plan. Conclusions With a guaranteed prescribed dose to target volume and BOLD-fMRI used as a guide, the visual cortex protective radiotherapy, compared with the conventional plan, can reduce the dose to the visual cortex and protect the corresponding functional areas.

BACKGROUND:
Perioperative treatment has become an increasingly important aspect of the management of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Small-scale clinical studies performed in recent years have shown improvements in the major pathological remission rate after neoadjuvant therapy, suggesting that it will soon become an important part of NSCLC treatment. Nevertheless, neoadjuvant immunotherapy may be accompanied by serious adverse reactions that lead to delay or cancelation of surgery, additional illness, and even death, and have therefore attracted much attention. The purpose of the clinical recommendations is to form a diagnosis and treatment plan suitable for the current domestic medical situation for the immune-related adverse event (irAE).
METHODS:
This recommendation is composed of experts in thoracic surgery, oncologists, thoracic medicine and irAE related departments (gastroenterology, respirology, cardiology, infectious medicine, hematology, endocrinology, rheumatology, neurology, dermatology, emergency section) to jointly complete the formulation. Experts make full reference to the irAE guidelines, large-scale clinical research data published by thoracic surgery, and the clinical experience of domestic doctors and publicly published cases, and repeated discussions in multiple disciplines to form this recommendation for perioperative irAE.
RESULTS:
This clinical recommendation covers the whole process of prevention, evaluation, examination, treatment and monitoring related to irAE, so as to guide the clinical work comprehensively and effectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Perioperative irAE management is an important part of immune perioperative treatment of lung cancer. With the continuous development of immune perioperative treatment, more research is needed in the future to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of perioperative irAE.
