1.Genetic pathogenesis and current trends in diagnosis and therapy of ATP-sensitive potassium channel congenital hyperinsulinism
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2016;31(8):628-630
ATP-sensitive potassium channel congenital hyperinsulinism (KATP-HI) is the most common and most severe type of congenital hyperinsulinism,accounting for 40%-45%.It is due to the inactivating mutations of the ABCC8 and KCNJ11 gene which encode the ATP-sensitive potassium channel.Diazoxide is the main and preferred therapy for KATP-HI.For KATP-HI children who are unresponsive to medical therapy usually need different degrees of pancreatectomy to maintain normal blood sugar level.

As a transmembrane protein, CD47 is widely distributed in a variety of cells. It can bind to signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) on macrophages and release inhibitory signals, thus avoiding phagocytosis of macrophages. In lymphoma cells, the expression of up-regulation of CD47 expression in lymphoma cells is one of the important mechanisms for inducing immune escape, and it is also a potential therapeutic target. This article reviews the research progress of CD47-induced immune escape, monoclonal antibodies targeting CD47 and cellular immunotherapy in the treatment of lymphoma.

The microenvironment of lymphoma is an important factor affecting the development of lymphoma, which is involved in regulating the recognition and immune response of lymphoma cells by the immune system. In the era of immunotherapy of lymphoma, the state of microenvironment also affects the effect of monoclonal antibodies, small molecular compounds and other immune targeting drugs on lymphoma cells. Among them, microenvironment-related immune escape is one of the key factors leading to the failure of lymphoma treatment. This article reviews some microenvironment factors such as stromal immune cell subsets, vascular proliferation, hypoxia, immune checkpoint and the recent research progress of immune escape.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of different doses of atorvastatin in the treatment of chronic heart failure.Methods:A total of 100 patients with chronic heart failure who received treatment in the Third People's Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from June 2019 to June 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into a control group (conventional treatment + atorvastatin calcium tablet 10 mg, n = 49) and an observation group (conventional treatment + atorvastatin calcium tablet 20 mg, n = 51). Before and after 12 weeks of treatment, serum levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and inflammatory cytokines such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10) as well as ventricular remodeling (echocardiographic index) were compared between the two groups. Results:After treatment, serum level of NT-proBNP was (506.56 ± 62.37) pg/mL and (660.85 ± 74.55) pg/mL, serum level of hs-CRP was (14.74 ± 2.69) mg/L and (23.31 ± 3.45) mg/L, serum level of IL-6 was (36.77 ± 4.78) ng/L and (43.12 ± 5.22) ng/L, serum level of IL-10 was (12.36 ± 2.63) ng /L and (15.39 ± 3.56) ng/L, left ventricular end diastolic diameter was (37.74 ± 6.83) mm and (42.36 ± 7.73) mm, left ventricular ejection fraction was (45.78 ± 3.31)% and (42.63 ± 2.56)%, and the ratio of early (E wave) to late (A wave) diastolic velocities (E/A) was (1.44 ± 0.06) and (1.21 ± 0.03), respectively in the observation and control groups. There were significant differences in serum levels of NT-proBNP, hs-CRP, IL-6 and IL-10 as well as LVEDD and LVEF between the observation and control groups ( t = 3.73, 3.07, 3.58, 3.68, 2.99, 3.12 and 2.98, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Atorvastatin is beneficial to the prognosis of patients with chronic heart failure. The therapeutic efficacy of 20 mg atorvastatin per day is better than that of 10 mg atorvastatin per day.
