Abstract: Objective　To detect the antibody levels of hantavirus in serum samples from patients suspected with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Heilongjiang Province from 2019 to 2021, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of disease. Methods　Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were used to detect the IgM antibodies to hantavirus in serum samples collected from suspected patients with HFRS in the acute-phase, and IgM and IgG antibody in convalescent-phase serum samples. The positive rate of IgM antibody in acute-phase serum samples of patients in different years was analyzed with χ2 test by SPSS 19.0, and the data were sorted out and analyzed about patients' gender, occupation, age, date of onset and interval from onset to initial diagnosis by EpiData 3.1, Excel 2003 software. Results　A total of 351 acute-phase serum samples and 208 convalescent-phase serum samples were detected in patients suspected with HFRS, respectively. There were 317 positive IgM antibodies of serum samples in the acute stage, with the positive rate of 90.31%. There was no significant difference in the positive rate of IgM antibodies in the acute stage between different years (χ2=0.895, P=0.639). T The IgM antibodies and IgG antibodies were positive in 32 (15.39%) and 28 (13.46%) of the convalescent-phase serum samples, respectively. Moreover, 148 patients (71.15%) were double-positive for IgM and IgG antibodies at the convalescent stage. The ratio of male to female patients was 4.56∶1, for which male patients were much more than female patients. Occupation was dominated by farmers (253 cases, 79.81%), followed by workers (19 cases, 5.99%) and the unemployed (17 cases, 5.36%), respectively. The age of patients ranged from 10 to 88 years old, with a median age of 49 years old. Most of the patients were in the age group from 30 years old to 60 years old (209 cases, 65.93%), among which the age group from 40 years old to 50 years old (86 cases, 27.13%) had the highest proportion, and the age group from 60 years old to 90 years old had a proportion of 20.18% (19 cases). May and November were the peak periods of HFRS in Heilongjiang Province. The median interval between onset and initial diagnosis was 4 days. Conclusions　There is a gap of about 10% between the clinical diagnosis of HFRS cases and the confirmed cases detected by laboratory in Heilongjiang Province from 2019 to 2021. The virus-specific detection results are important for confirming the diagnosis of local patients with HFRS.

Objective To explore the mechanism of protecting cells from ischemic reperfusion injury by constructing specific small interference RNA (siRNA) to inhibit Na+-H+exchanger-1 (NHE-1) expression in human renal tubular epithelial cell (HKC). Methods The siRNA was designed and synthesized based on human NHE-1 complete sequence,and was transfected into HKC.The irrespective siRNA transfected group was used as control.The cells were treated with 10 μmol/L antimyein A to induce ischemia and anoxyaemia environment.NHE-1expression was examined by RT-PCR and Western blot.The intraeellular pH (pHi),Ca2+ or Na+ concentrations were detected by BCECF/AM,Fluo-3/AM and SBFI-AM,respectively,combining with laser eonfocal assay system.Nucleic morphology was determined by Hoechst 33342.Cellular apoptosis was examined by Annexin V/PI staining and flow eytometry.Fluorescent probe JC-1 was used to detect the change of mitechondrial transmembrane potential. Results The specific siRNA could efficiently inhibit NHE-1 expression in HKC.Compared with the irrespective siRNA transfected group,the mRNA and protein expression of NHE-1 was significantly down-regulated in NHE-1 siRNA transfeeted group (all P＜0.05).After treatment with antimyein A,the mRNA and protein expression of NHE-1 was significantly up-regulated in both groups,however,it was less than that in irrespective siBNA transfected group.At the same time,the ratio of apoptosis decreased (8.9% +2.9% vs 18.8%±3.2% , 17.4%±3.6% ,P＜0.05) and mitochondrial transmembrane potential rose significantly in NHE-1 siRNA transfected group as compared to irrespective siRNA transfected group and antimycin A group.The intracellular Na+,H+ and Ca2+concentrations increased in NHE-1 siRNA transfected group treated with antimyein A,but their levels were lower than those in irrespective siRNA transfected group with the same treatment(P＜0.05). Conclusions The synthesized siBNA can inhibit the expression of NHE-1 and can protect HKC from isehemia reperfasion injury induced by antimyein A.The mechanism might be via suppressing the expression of NHE-1 to delay intracelluar Na+ accumulation,attenuate intracellular Ca2+ overloading,and inhibit the decrease of mitechondrion transmembrane potential and reduce cellular apoptosis.

This study was designed to determine the impact of chrysoeriol on proliferation and cell cycle progression in the human multiple myeloma cell lines RPMI 8226 and KM3, and its related molecular mechanisms. Chryseoriol was identified by using the phosphorylated AKT-specific cytoblot high throughput assay. CCK-8 assay was employed to examine the growth inhibition rate and IC(50) (48 h) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs), RPMI 8226 and KM3 cells treated with chrysoeriol at various concentrations. Cells were labeled with 5-6-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE), and the proliferation dynamics was detected by flow cytometry and analyzed with ModFit software. The cell cycles of RPMI 8226 and KM3 cells were measured by flow cytometry when the IC(50) concentration of chrysoeriol was adopted. The alterations in cell-cycle related proteins (Cyclin B1, Cyclin D1, p21) and proteins in PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway were determined by Western blot analysis. The results showed the proliferation of multiple myeloma cells was significantly inhibited by chrysoeriol, resulting in cell cycle arrest in G(2)/M phase. Chrysoeriol could significantly reduce the expression of p-AKT (s473) and p-4eBP1 (t37/46) protein, meanwhile enhanced Cyclin B1 and p21 protein expression. Similar effects were not observed in PBMNCs from normal donors. It was concluded that chrysoeriol was a selective PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway inhibitor. It restrained the proliferation of human multiple myeloma cells, but didn't affect proliferation of PBMNCs from normal donors. It might exhibit the cell cycle regulatory effect via the inhibition of PI3K-AKT-mTOR signal pathway.

OBJECTIVETo analysis deacclimatization symptom scores of 159 youth from Karakoram and Tibet Ali area, and provide the basis for the development of relevant prevention and control measures.

METHODSUsing the method of epidemiological symptoms questionnaire, 18 symptoms of 190 youth who returned to the plain area from the different plateau were investigated. The symptom scores of different altitude, age, the time of staying, different units, continuous or intermittent stage and education were surveyed.

RESULTSDeacclimatization symptom scores among 5,000 meter groups were significantly higher than those of 4,300 meter and 3,700 meter group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference between the 4,300 meter group and the 3,700 meter group (P > 0.05). There were significant differences among the stayed personnel (different age, position, unit, education, time, continuous or intermittent) (P < 0.01). There was significant difference between the continuous defended the group and intermittent group (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONDeacclimatization symptom scores were related to the plateau exposure time, altitude, workload, plateau continued exposure. The older, the longer exposure, the higher altitude, the greater workload at plateau were showed higher deacclimatization symptom score.

Objective To investigate the combined effects of fluoride and aluminum intoxication on bones and their possible mechanisms.Methods Kunming mice were divided into nine groups according to the factorial experiment design.Different dose of fluoride(NaF,0,50,150 mg/L)and/or aluminum(AlCl3,0,200,600 mg/L)was administered to each group in drinking water.After 24 weeks,the degree of mottled teeth and the histomorphometric parameters,such as the bone trabecula and osteoid areas,the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts,and pathologic changes in femur were observed.Results Aluminum could also caused mottled teeth(in degree 4).The mottled teeth in the combined groups were more serious than those in fluoride or aluminum alone group.The interaction between fluoride and aluminum existed in the changes of bone trabecula and osteoid areas(F=2.963,3.688,P＜0.05),and not existed in changes of the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts(F=2.347,0.888,P＞0.05).In high fluoride group,the trabecula and osteoid areas were(50 675.47±22 916.34),(10 733.97 ±3015.55)μm2,but it increased to(75 988.64±13 797.21),(16 402.88±4605.83)μm2 when combined with high aluminum(P＜0.05),and the group of high fluoride +low aluminum increased to(69 277.16±19 837.51),(18 564.79±6362.47)μm2 (P＜0.05),so aluminum antagonized the effects induced by fluoride;the area of bone trabecula of group of high aluminum was(60 718.43 ±17 574.37)μm2,but it increased[(75 988.64±13 797.21),(82 474.94±15 466.66)μm2]when combined with high or low fluoride(P＜0.05),and the combined effects showed a similarity to those in high aluminum group.The prominent osteoporosis with increased osteoid and cartilage tissues,and decreased amount of bony matrix and minerals were the main histopathological changes in the bone.Conclusions Both high aluminum and fluoride intoxication can result in mottled teeth,their combined effects are more serious than the individual effect.The prominent injury of combined fluoride and aluminum intoxication is osteomalacia and osteoporosis.
