Objective To synthesize 131I labeled anti-neuropilin-1 monoclonal antibody A6 (131IA6) and evaluate its biodistribution and imaging in malignant glioma xenografts.Methods (1) A6 was labeled with 131I by Iodogen method under the optimum labeling conditions,then the labeling efficiency,radiochemical purity and stability were measured in vitro.(2) In vitro bioactivity,cellular uptake and receptor affinity of 131I-A6 with U87MG cells were measured.(3) The nude mice bearing human U87MG cells were randomly divided into 5 groups with 5 in each group.The nude mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation and dissected at 24,48,72,96,and 120 h,respectively,after intravenous injection of 1.2 MBq 131I-A6.The biodistribution of the agent was measured as ％ID/g,and the ratios of tumor/blood (T/B) and tumor/muscle (T/M) were calculated.(4) SPECT/CT imaging was performed in 6 mice including 3 in the competitive inhibition control group at 24,48,72,96,and 120 h post injection.Two-sample t test was used for data analysis.Results (1) The labeling yield of 131I-A6 was (95.46±3.34)％,and the radiochemical purity was more than 95％.At 96 h of incubation in PBS,the radiochemical purity was more than 85％.(2)131I-A6 had rapid accumulation in U87MG cells and reached the peak of (15.80±1.30)％ at 1 h.When the probe was incubated with large excesses of non-radioactive A6,the uptake level of 131I-A6 in U87MG cells was significantly inhibited (t=2.862,P＜0.05).Kd of 131I-A6 binding to NRP-1 was (1.67±0.14) nmol/L in U87MG cells.(3) Biodistribution study showed that the uptake in blood,liver and tumor was (8.00±1.42),(7.68±1.56) and (6.00±1.24) ％ID/g at 24 h,respectively.The uptake in muscle,brain and bone was lower.The T/B and T/M were 0.78±0.10 and 3.20±0.30 at 24 h,and they reached the highest level of 1.87±0.50 and 7.13±0.24 at 120 h.(4) The SPECT imaging showed that the tumors could be visualized at 24 h and delineated more clearly at 120 h post injection of 131I-A6.Conclusions 131I-A6 can be easily synthesized by Iodogen method with high radiochemical purity.The specific tumor uptake of 131I-A6,which correlates with NRP-1 expression in gliomas,suggests that it may be a new promising tumor targeting radiotracer.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of domestic Sirolimus-eluting stents (Firebird) and imported Zotalimus-eluting stents ( Resolute) in the treatment of patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease ( ULMCA) . Methods We retrospectively enrolled 76 patients with ULMCA treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) under the guidance of IVUS in our hospital. According to the different stents used in the procedure, the patients were divided into two groups: Domestic Sirolimus-Eluting Stents group (Firebird group, n = 42) and Imported Zotarolimus-Eluting Stents group (Resolute group, n = 34) . We analyzed the baseline characteristics, coronary artery lesion characteristics, stenting strategies and any changes in left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF) in both groups and investigated the long-term clinical outcomes. Results There were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics, the SYNTAX scores of the coronary artery lesion and the rate of complete revascularization between the two groups. Compared with that in Firebird group, there were more cases involving the distal left main (79. 4% vs. 45. 2% , P ﹤ 0. 05) and more patients using two stents strategies (29. 4% vs. 7. 1% , P ﹤ 0. 05) in the Resolute group. The change in LVEF post-PCI had no difference between the two groups. The patients were followed up for a mean of (23. 3 ± 10. 7) months. During the follow-up period, the occurrence of MACCE had no significant difference between the two groups. In the Firebird group, there were one sudden cardiac death, one nonfatal myocardial infarction, one stroke and five patients with recurrence of angina pectoris. In the Resolute group there were one sudden cardiac death, one target lesion revascularization and four patients with recurrence of angina pectoris. Conclusions Compared with the imported Zotalimus-Eluting Stents, the domestic Sirolimus-Eluting Stents are safe and effective in the treatment of patients with unprotected left main lesions under the guidance of IVUS. The two kinds of stent showed similar long-term clinical outcomes.

Objective To investigate whether the vohage-gated chloride channel CLC-2 gene— CLCN2 is associated with idiopathic generalized tonie-clonic seizures(often called a grand mal seizure, GME)of Jinuo people and Han people from Yunnan province.Methods Three regions,including Intron 2, Exon 5 and Exon 19(Intron 18),of CLCN2 were selected to conduct sequence analysis.The case-control study design was used to detect association between gene polymorphism and idiopathic generalized tonic- clonic seizures of Jinuo people and Han people from Yunnan province.Results No previously reported susceptible mutations were found in Intron 2,Exon 5 and Exon 19 in Jinuo people and Han people from Yunnan province.However we found a single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)at site 146 of Intron 18. Case-control study were carried out,using this SNP.Distribution of the 3 genotypes(TT,TC,CC)has a significant difference between the IGTCS patients of Han people and the normal controls of Han people(9, 3,29 cases and 22,9,26,respectively,x~2=16.079,P

Abstract: Objective　To investigate the clinical characteristics and incidence of Brucella encephalitis and meningitis in children. Methods We report the clinical data of a child with Brucella melitensis meningitis in children, and summarize the incidence, diagnosis methods and treatment of Brucella encephalitis or meningitis in children, taking into account the relevant domestic and foreign literature from January 2014 to December 2020. Results　A 4-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital with status epilepticus on March 15, 2021 because of interrupted right limb numbness for 16 hours and convulsions for 2 hours. She had 2 non-febrile convulsions three months before admission and was diagnosed with epilepsy. This incident was acute, accompanied by low fever, with epilepsy as the main manifestation. Cerebrospinal fluid test suggested central nervous system infection, but the nature of infection could not be determined by routine and biochemistry of cerebrospinal fluid.The cerebrospinal fluid next generation sequencing confirmed that the pathogen of the infection was B. melitensis, which was further verified by the peripheral blood antibody test. After effective antibiotics combined with a full course of treatment, the patient recovered after six months of treatment. A total of 60 articles were retrieved in the database, including 29 in Chinese. During this period, a total of 7 cases of brucellosis in children with nervous system involvement were reported, one of which was a case report, and the other 6 cases were mentioned in the comprehensive analysis of children with brucellosis. Conclusions　Brucella encephalitis or meningitis in children has a low incidence and various clinical features, which are easy to be misdiagnosed or missed.

OBJECTIVETo optimize cultivation methods of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from hepatitis B patients and to investigate their biological characteristics.

METHODSGrowth curves of hepatitis B patients MSCs cultivated with five culture media and two inoculation methods were compared; the shapes, appearances, surface markers and bionomics of the cultivated MSCs were studied.

RESULTSInoculating the cells obtained directly from bone marrow aspirations was not as successful as using the marrow cells after their density gradient centrifugations (76% vs 88%), but the differences in the results were not statistically significant (P more than 0.05). The successful cultivation rates using five culture media were different and the differences were statistically significant (P less than 0.01). The autoserum medium was most successful, fatal bovine serum (FBS) medium was next successful and the non-patient serum medium was the least successful. The growth curves of the cultivations using the different media were parallel to this. Changing the whole culture media every 2 or 3 days was better than changing half of the media. The shapes, appearances, surface markers and the growth characteristics of MSCs from the hepatitis B patients were almost the same as MSCs from the normal adult.

CONCLUSIONThe best cultivation method of MSCs from hepatitis B patients is: separating marrow cells using density gradient centrifugal separation, cultivating them using an autoserum culture medium, and completely changing the medium every 2-3 days. The biological characteristics of MSCs from the hepatitis B patients using the above methods are almost the same as those from normal adults.

BACKGROUND:The studies have shown that the mesenchymal stem cel s derived from bone marrow and umbilical cord can be continuously cultured in vitro, and maintain the characteristics of stem cel s. The mesenchymal stem cel s can differentiate into hepatocyte-like cel s after“cocktail”induction by various cytokines. OBJECTIVE:To further identify whether umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cel s in vitro co-cultured with normal hepatocytes can differentiate into hepatocyte-like cel s, and to investigate the differentiation method. METHODS:Mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated from human umbilical cord with adherent method, and the surface markers of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cel s were detected with flow cytometry. The umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cel s were co-cultured with liver LO2 cel s without adding exogenous inducers. The expressions of alpha-fetoprotein, albumin and human cytokeratin 19 mRNA of hepatocyte specific markers were detected with reverse transcription PCR at 7, 14 and 21 days after culture, and periodic acid-Schiff staining was used to identify the functions. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mesenchymal stem cel s could isolated from human umbilical cord successful y, showing fibroblastic morphology and adherent cel characterization. Among these cel s, 96.02%cel s were CD29 positive cel s and 96.6%cel s were CD105 positive cel s. The percentage of CD34 negative cel s was 99.65%. The percentage of CD105+CD29+double positive cel s was 94.84%. The mRNA of alpha-fetoprotein was found on the 7th day after co-cultured with LO2 cel s, and the mRNA of albumin and human cytokeratin 19 were found on the 14th day. After co-cultured for 21 days, the alpha-fetoprotein mRNA could not be observed in the co-culture group. The expressions of albumin and human cytokeratin 19 were increased at 14 days. After co-cultured for 21 days, the glycogen staining was positive. Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cel s can differentiate into hepatocyte-like cel s after co-cultured with normal hepatocytes.
