AIM: To probe into tau hyperphosphorylation at PHF- 1 sites induced by glycogen synthase kinase - 3β(GSK- 3β) in vivo. METHODS: Twenty - one rats were randomly allocated to three groups as follows: GSK - 3β transfection group, vector group and control group; 0.1 μg/3μL GSK- 3β- HA plasmid or vector was injected bilaterally into cerebrum of the rats respectively, rats without injection were controls. Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining of cortex were carried out to detect the expression of GSK- 3β- HA plasmid and tau phosphorylation using phosphorylation- dependent tau antibody PHF- 1. RESULTS: After transfection with GSK- 3β- HA for 48 h, GSK - 3β - HA was expressed in GSK- 3β transfection group; and hyperphosphorylated tau at PHF- 1 sites accumulated in neurons in the transfected areas. The hyperphosphorylated tau colocalized largely with GSK- 3β expressed by the transfected GSK- 3β plasmid. CONCLUSIONS: Transfection with GSK- 3βin vivo can induce tau hyperphosphorylation involving the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. These data further prove that GSK- 3β is a key kinase to induce tau hyperphosphorylation and may be a therapeutic target for tauopathy- related neurodegenerative diseases.

The comparative analysis of the biological characterization and the genetic background study of EV71 circulating strains is commonly recognized as basic work necessary for development of an effective EV71 vaccine. In this study, we sequenced five EV71 circulating strains, isolated from Fuyang, Hefei, Kunming and Shenzhen city of China and named them FY-23, FY-22, H44, K9 and S1 respectively. The sequence alignment demonstrated their genotypes be C4. The genetic distance of the VP1 gene from these isolates suggested that they were highly co-related with genetic identity similar to other previously reported EV71 strains in China. Additionally, these strains were identified to display some obvious proliferation dynamics and plaque morphology when propagated in Vero cells. However, a distinctive difference in pathogenic ability in neonatal mice was found. Some differences in cross neutralization test & immunogenic analysis were also found. All these results are related to the biological characterization of circulating EV71 strains in China and aid in the development of an EV71 vaccine in the future.

OBJECTIVE:
To preliminary discuss the questions of deep and superficial layer under intranasal endoscope operation for nasal septum malignant tumour.
METHOD:
The patients of 19 cases with nasal septum malignant tumour who adapt to the operation under intranasal endoscope were divided into 3 groups and were treated separately according to the range, position, infiltrative degree of tumour and exploring conditions in operative process. The treatments of first group had executed with first layer operation. The second group had executed with second layer operation in addition partial patients radiotherapy. The third group had executed with third layer operation in addition total patients radiotherapy.
RESULT:
The tumour-free survivals have 4 cases and local recurrences have 2 cases in 6 cases of first group. The tumour-free survivals have 5 cases, local recurrence has 2 cases, local metastasis has 1 cases and death has 1 case in 9 cases of second group. The tumour-free survivals have 2 cases, local recurrence has 1 case and local metastasis has 1 case in 4 cases of third group. The treated effects have not statistical differences in 3 groups (P > 0.05). Five-year survival rate was 84.2% and five-year tumour-free survival rate was 57.9% for all patients.
CONCLUSION
The operations under intranasal endoscope for nasal septum malignant tumour have certainly indication. The selection of operative deep and superficial layer and control of operative safety margin have the same important clinical signification.

Objective To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of inactivated poliovirus vaccine derived from Sabin strain (sIPV) in Banna mini pigs, and to provide experimental evidence for the new animal model. Methods sIPV vaccines which are listed at Institute of Medical Biology at Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were used in this study. The groups of intramuscular sIPV and the wild strain IPV injections (IPV derived from wild strain, wIPV) were designed, and the saline group was used as a negative control group. The Banna mini pigs in various groups were immunized at 0, 1 and 2 months. Blood samples were collected before immunization and on days 30 after each immunization. Levels of neutralizing antibodies were tested for evaluating immunogenicity. The safety was evaluated by observation of the status and weight of mini pigs. Results After the three dose immunization schedules in the Banna mini pigs, the seroconversion rates of type Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ sIPV experimental groups and wIPV group were all up to 100%. The neutralizing antibody levels in all the three types were much higher than the protective titer 1: 8. The weight of mini pigs increased after vaccination. Conclusions The sIPV vaccine has good immunogenicity and safety in Banna mini pigs. Banna mini pigs could be a new animal model for evaluation of sIPV vaccine.

Objective:To explore the role of active screening in the diagnosis and treatment of early lung cancer, and give health management recommendations.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to collect lung cancer patients who had complete population sociology, clinical information, pathology and imaging characteristics in the Thoracic Surgery in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from 2016 to 2019. According to different diagnostic modes, they were divided into an active screening group (1082 cases) and a passive case finding group (974 cases), to analyze their differences in demographic sociological, clinical information, pathology and imaging characteristics, and to discuss the key points of population management in the active screening group.Results:From 2016 to 2019, the proportion of lung cancer patients in the active screening group increased from 36.1% to 54.2%, and the proportion of patients found to have lung cancer by CT examination in the active screening group increased from 82.2% to 96.8%. Compared with the passive case finding group, the active screening group had a higher proportion of women, non-smokers, patients with precursor glandular lesions and adenocarcinoma, patients in stage 0 and stage I, patients with lesion diameter (d)≤1 cm and 1

Objective:
To construct influenza B virus Vero cell adapted strain by genetic recombination technology by using the influenza B virus Vero cell adapted strain as the parent strain.
Methods:
The chick embryo and Vero cell were co-infected with influenza virus Vero cell adapted strain B/Malaysia/2506/2004 Va (Bv) and the vaccine strain B/massachusetts/2/2012 (BX-51B) recommended by WHO. The reassortants were screened with the anti-Bv serum. Plaque-purified reassortants were used to screen for Vero cell-adapted influenza B virus strains containing the surface antigen of the epidemic strain.
Results:
A Vero cell-adapted influenza B virus strain was obtained with successive passage in Vero cells. The hemagglutination inhibition test and the one-way immunogold agar diffusion test both showed that the reassortant virus was homologous to NYMC BX-51B, and sequence analysis result showed that the reassortment virus has the same HA and NA gene with the vaccine strain.
Conclusion
B/Malaysia/2506/2004Va (Bv) can be used as a parent strain to prepare Vero cell vaccine against influenza B virus.
