Simple and sensitive methods were developed for the determination of indapamide, perindopril and its active metabolite perindoprilat in human plasma or whole blood by hyphenated ultra-performance li-quid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). Indapamide-d3, perindopril-d4 and perindo-prilat-d4 were used as the internal standards. The separation was performed on a Thermo BDS Hypersil C18column (4.6 mm × 100 mm, 2.4 μm) for indapamide and perindopril simultaneously following a protein precipitation pretreatment of the biosamples. The separation of perindoprilat was achieved in-dependently on a phenomenex PFP column (4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm). All the analytes were quantitated with positive electrospray ionization and multiple reactions monitoring mode. The assay exhibited a linear range of 1–250 ng/mL for indapamide, 0.4–100 ng/mL for perindopril and 0.2–20 ng/mL for peri-ndoprilat. The methods were fully validated to meet the requirements for bioassay in accuracy, precision, recovery, reproducibility, stabilities and matrix effects, and successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of perindopril tert-butylamine/indapamide compound tablets in Chinese healthy volunteers and the comparative pharmacokinetic study between plasma and whole blood.

BACKGROUNDSensitization in transplant candidates increases risk of irreversible immunologic injury of graft in the early period postoperatively. Elimination of anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies using protein A immunoadsorption (IA) might benefit these patients.
METHODSProtein A IA was used in 21 patients with high panel reactive antibody (PRA). The patients had IA 1 - 6 times (median 5 times) with the interval period was 2 - 5 days (median 2.5 days).
RESULTSTotal 67 IA procedures were carried out smoothly in all patients. IA treatment reduced PRA I (pre (31.4 ± 3.8)% vs. post (24.4 ± 3.4)%, P < 0.01) and II (pre (37.1 ± 4.3)% vs. post (34.1 ± 3.9)%, P < 0.01). However, PRA did not change in some patients after the treatment. The serum immunoglobulin (IgG, IgM and IgA) and complement C3, C4 level were decreased significantly. Hemoglobin and albumin levels were slightly decreased associated with IA procedures. Flu-like symptoms were observed in a few of cases during the procedure but generally mild and transient.
CONCLUSIONProtein A IA is capable to efficiently remove serum immunoglobulin and complement, reduce HLA class I and class II PRA in high sensitized transplant candidates, which is likely to benefit the kidney transplantation in these patients.

At present , methamphetamine has become a major hidden danger in global public health safety. In order to judge methamphetamine addicts and methamphetamine abstainers more scientifically and reliably, this study analyzed the endogenous metabolites in plasma, serum and urine of methamphetamine addicts, methamphetamine abstainers and healthy volunteers by highly sensitive high-throughput liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF-MS) analytical instrument. The obtained metabolomic data were processed by univariate analysis (t-test) and multivariate analysis (PLS-DA and OPLS-DA) and eligible potential biomarkers were then screened.The identified biomarkers set enrichment analysis to find the connection between metabolites and metabolic pathways.Multivariate statistical results showed that methamphetamine acute group, recovery group and healthy group were clearly separated.3, 18 and 6 regulated metabolites were identified in serum, plasma and urine, respectively, suggesting that lipid metabolism was abnormal in methamphetamine acute group, and that fatty acid metabolism, sulfate/sulfite metabolism and sex hormone metabolism were abnormal in methamphetamine recovery group.The selected potential biomarkers in this study provide the possibility for scientific judgment of the clinical stage of methamphetamine detoxification.

Background:
There is an urgent need to find reliable and rapid bovine tuberculosis (bTB) diagnostics in response to the rising prevalence of bTB worldwide. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) recognizes components of bTB and initiates antigen-presenting cells to mediate humoral immunity. Evaluating the affinity of antigens with TLR2 can form the basis of a new method for the diagnosis of bTB based on humoral immunity.
Objectives:
To develop a reliable and rapid strategy to improve diagnostic tools for bTB.
Methods:
In this study, we expressed and purified the sixteen bTB-specific recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli. The two antigenic proteins, MPT70 and MPT83, which were most valuable for serological diagnosis of bTB were screened. Molecular docking technology was used to analyze the affinity of MPT70, MPT83, dominant epitope peptide of MPT70 (M1), and dominant epitope peptide MPT83 (M2) with TLR2, combined with the detection results of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to evaluate the molecular docking effect.
Results:
The results showed that interaction surface Cα-atom root mean square deviation of proteins (M1, M2, MPT70, MPT83)-TLR2 protein are less than 2.5 A, showing a high affinity.It is verified by clinical serum samples that MPT70, MPT83, MPT70-MPT83 showed good diagnostic potential for the detection of anti-bTB IgG and M1, M2 can replace the whole protein as the detection antigen.
Conclusions
Molecular docking to evaluate the affinity of bTB protein and TLR2 combined with ELISA provides new insights for the diagnosis of bTB.

Objective:To investigate the local epidemic of COVID-19 caused by 2019-nCoV Delta variant in Zhenhai district of Ningbo, identify the transmission chain and provide reference for the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic.Methods:The incidence data of COVID-19 in Zhenhai from 6 to 18 December, 2021 were collected in field investigation. Field epidemiological investigation was conducted to understand the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 cases and analyze the transmission chains.Results:The first case might be infected with 2019-nCoV through direct or indirect exposure when passing through a medium-risk area, then a family cluster was caused, and the epidemic spread through close contacts of family members with others such as work, daily life, and moxibustion. The epidemic lasted for 14 days, and 74 confirmed COVID-19 cases were reported. The median incubation period was 4.0(3.0,5.8)d. All the cases were in a chain of transmission for more than 6 generations, and the intergenerational interval was 3.5(2.0,5.3)d. The gene sequencing result indicated that the pathogen was Delta AY.4 variant of 2019-nCoV. Both the epidemiological investigation and the gene sequencing results supported that the local COVID-19 epidemic in Zhenhai was associated with the COVID-19 epidemic in Shanghai.Conclusions:The transmission chain of this epidemic was clear. Delta AY.4 variant has obvious characteristic to cause case clusters in families, places with poor ventilation, and residential communities. It is suggested to strengthen the health management in key areas and key populations, and increase the frequency of nucleic acid testing.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the expressing level of bradykinin B2receptor and pathological grade of gliomas, and supply experimental basis for clinical application of bradykinin or its analog. Methods The clinicopathologic findings were diagnosed by reviewing all hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained tissue sections. To determine the expressing level of bradykinin B2 receptor in glioma, immunohistochemistry and Western blot methods were used.Results Results of H&E staining: In 26 cases of glioma there were 9 cases of grade Ⅰ, 9 cases of grade Ⅱ, 8 cases of grade Ⅲ, and 0 case of grade Ⅳ. Bradykinin B2 receptor localized on tumor cells while the cells of edematous band at the edge of glioma did not express B2 receptor. Results of Western blot: grade Ⅰ and grade Ⅱ (39480.88 ± 5119.96 vs 51354.25 ±6168.77, n = 8, t = 2. 447, P < 0.05); grade Ⅰ and grade Ⅲ (39480.88 ± 5119.96 vs 73032.13 ±8802.71, n = 8, t = 7. 710, P < 0. 001 ); grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ (51354.25 ± 6168.77 vs 73032.13 ± 8802.71, n = 8,t = 5. 704, P < 0. 001 ). There was a positive correlation between the expressing level of bradykinin B2 receptor and the the pathological grade of glioma (r =0. 895, P <0.001) as grade Ⅰ<grade Ⅱ<grade Ⅲ. Results of immunohistochemistry:grade Ⅰ and grade Ⅱ (3.54% 1.51% vs 8.47% ±3.45%, n=8, t=3.698, P<0.01); grade Ⅰ and grade Ⅲ (3.54%±1.51% vs 15.94% ±1.68%, n=8, t=15.562, P<0.001); grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ (8.47% ±3.45% vs 15.94%± 1.68% , n = 8, t = 5. 505, P < 0. 001 ). There was a positive correlation between the positive position area ratio of bradykinin B2receptor and the pathological grade of glioma (r = 0. 878, P <0. 001 ) as grade Ⅰ< grade Ⅱ< grade Ⅲ. Conclusion There was a positive correlation between the expressing level of bradykinin B2 receptor and the pathological grade of glioma. This may be the reason of the diverse cure effects of the increase of blood-tumor barrier permeability induced by bradykinin and its analog.
