Objective To investigate alteration of blood routine parameters,blood gas analysis profile,coagulation function,and inflammatory factors during exposure to high-altitude hypoxic environments.Methods Rats were raised in a hypobaric oxygen chamber to simulate the altitude of 5 500 meters.The animals were divided into groups with exposure duration of 0(control),1,3,5,7,14,and 28 days.Arterial blood gas was measured using a blood gas analyzer.The routine blood test was performed by an automatic five-differential animal hematology analyzer.The coagulation function was measured by a fully automatic coagulation analyzer.The level of plasma D-dimer(DD),erythropoietin(EPO),interleukin-10(IL-10),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and C-reactive protein(CRP)was detected by ELISA method.The protein expression of IL-10,IL-6,and TNF-α in lung tissues of the animals was detected by Western blot.Results As compare to control group,the arterial partial pressure of ox-ygen(PaO2)decreased at different durations of hypoxia exposure.The PaO2 in the group exposed to hypoxia for 7 d was the lowest(P＜0.05).The red blood cell count(RBC),hemoglobin(HGB),hematocrit(HCT),mean cor-puscular volume(MCV),mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration(MCHC)and mean platelet volume(MPV)were all higher than control group(P＜0.05).Erythropoietin(EPO),prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen(FIB)and D-dimer(DD)all gradually increased(P＜0.05).The white blood cell count(WBC)and platelet count(PLT),as well as the plasma inflammatory fac-tors including interleukin-10(IL-10),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),C-reactive protein(CRP),and the expression of inflammatory factors in the lung tissue including IL-10,IL-6 and TNF-α pro-teins all showed a curve of increasing at beginning and then followed by a slow decrease with the prolongation of the hypoxia time(P＜0.05).Conclusions In high-altitude hypoxic environment,the blood circulation undergoes dy-namic evolution of functional remodeling with higher risk of inflammatory response.As the hypoxia time prolongs,the animals adapt the environment and the level of inflammatory cytokines gradually decline but remains at a level which is still higher than that of control animals.

Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the renal pelvis accounts for a very low percentage of malignant tumors in the renal pelvis and has a poor prognosis. This article reported a patient with sarcomatoid carcinoma of the renal pelvis. The patient presented with macroscopic hematuria as the first symptom, and CT suggested left renal occupancy, unilateral nephrectomy was performed, and pathology suggested sarcomatoid carcinoma of the renal pelvis. Three weeks after surgery, a follow-up CT showed tumor recurrence. Programmed death 1(PD-1)inhibitor was given once every 3 weeks. Repeated CT examination after 24 weeks of continuous treatment suggested that the recurrent tumor disappeared. The patients was followed-up for 42 months without tumor recurrence or metastasis.

Objective To establish a high-throughput screening system to obtain key Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus)secretory proteins which required for S.aureus survival in macrophages.Methods Based on our validated eukaryotic expression vector library of S.aureus secretory proteins,DNA transfection was used to obtain an RAW264.7 macrophage array expressing S.aureus secretory proteins.After the RAW264.7 cells were infected with S.aureus,the extracellular bacteria were removed to observe the intracellular surviving situation of S.aureus.Finally,the screening results were validated by the overexpression and knockout S.aureus of corresponding secretory proteins.Results The optimal transfection dose (1.0 μg/well)of plasmids for RAW264.7,multiplicity of infection (MOI,1 .0 ),and infection time (4 h after removing extracellular bacteria of S.aureus ) were established respectively.To validate the screening results,the corresponding overexpression and knockout strains were constructed.And hypothetical protein and Serine protease E were found to promote the survival of intracellular S.aureus.Conclusion We successfully construct a screening system for key secreted secretory proteins which required for S.aureus surviving in macrophages,which may advance the study of the intracellular surviving mechanism of S.aureus.
