In this paper, the antigens of both Vibrio cholerae on 55 strains of El Tor and on 28 strains obtained with genetical method were studied by ELISA method using 12 strains of McAb against Vibrio cholerae (VCOMcAb). The results indicated that the 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor were expressed 11(A-K) of the recognized antigenic determinants, and fell into XⅧ(Ⅰ-XⅧ) distinct McAb reactivity types or groups, and the 28 varients of Vibrio cholerae from genetical method were expressed 9 (A-Ⅰ) of the recognized antigenic determinants, and fell into Ⅹ (Ⅰ-Ⅹ) distinct McAb reactivity types or groups. From those VCOMcAbs, the “F3” could recognize all 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor, indicating it has specificity; other 11 strains of VCOMcAb have a variety of reactivity to antigens on the 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor in both Inaba and Ogawa and their percentages of reactivity are different. This shows that these strains may have subtypes or subgroups.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the identification and proces sing end-point determination of raw Morus alba and its processed products (honey-processed M. alba ). METHODS :UPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Waters BEH Shield RP C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile- 0.1% phosphoric acid solution (gradient elution ) at the flow rate of 0.30 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃. The program wavelengths were set at 280 nm(0-4 min) and 320 nm(4-35 min). Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatogram Fingerprint of TCM (2012 edition)was used to establish UPLC fingerprint and carry out similarity evaluation of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba . The chromatographic peaks were identified with reference substance fingerprint. The colorimetric value (L,a,b) of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba powder were determined ,and average total colorimetric value (E)was calculated. OPLS-DA and cluster analysis were adopted to analyze the differences in fingerprints and colorimetric values of M. alba before and after processing. At the same time ,the dynamic change rule of fingerprint and colorimetric value of honey-processed M. alba at different processing time points were analyzed to determine the processing end-point. RESULTS :There were obvious differences in fingerprints before and after processing ,and the similarity of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba were all higher than 0.9. Totally 21 common peaks were calibrated for M. alba ,and 23 common peaks for honey-processed M. alba ;peak 1 and peak 2 were newly produced compounds of honey-processed M. alba . Peak 2,peak 7,peak 14 and peak 19 were identified as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, mulberry glucoside A ,oxidized resveratrol ,mulberry flavonoids G. Results of OPLS-DA showed that the peak area-sample quantity ratio of peak 1,peak 2,peak 18,peak 20 and the chromaticity values (L,a,b)were the most important factors affecting the difference of raw and processed products of M. alba . When the E ranged 75.84-80.88 as the processing end-point of honey-processed M. alba ,the processing time was determined as 22-34 min. CONCLUSIONS : The established UPLC fingerprint and colorimetric value determination method can be used to identify the raw and processed products of M. alba as well as determine the processing end-point of honey-processed M. alba .

OBJECTIVE:To establish HP LC ch aracteristic ch romatogram of different medicinal parts of Cirsium japonicum , and to compare the difference of chemical components in different medicinal parts of C. japonicum according to chemical identification method ,and to provide reference for quality control and evaluation of C. japonicum . METHODS :Medicinal material (overground part ),leaves,flower,main stem and lateral stem of C. japonicum were determined by HPLC. According to the TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System (2012A edition ),the chromatograms were matched to generate the HPLC characteristic chromatogram of each medicinal part. The differences of common characteristic peak area were analyzed according to variance analysis of single factor. The chromatographic peaks were identified by comparison of reference substance. Meanwhile,the chemical pattern recognition was performed to research the different medicinal parts of C. japonicum according to principal component analysis (PCA)and cluster analysis. RESULTS :HPLC characteristic chromatograms of medicinal material , leaves,flower,main stem and lateral stem from C. japonicum were established respectively ,and 15 common peaks were confirmed for medicinal material ,leaves and flower of C. japonicum ;11 common peaks were confirmed in chromatograms of main stem and lateral stem from C. japonicum (absence of No. 7,9,12,13 peak). The contents of chemical components were different greatly among different medicinal parts. No. 1,2,3,10,11 peaks were identified as neochlorogenic acid ,chlorogenic acid , cryptochlorogenic acid ,linarin and pectolinarin. Results of PCA and cluster analysis showed that chemical pattern recognition and clustering of the flower and stem of C. japonicum were distinct and can be clustered into one category respectively. However ,the leaves distribution of C. japonicum was relatively scattered ,so it was difficult to cluster . CONCLUSIONS :Established HPLC characteristic chromatogram-chemical pattern recognition can reflect the differences of different medicinal parts of C. japonicum integrally, comprehensively and truly , which has vital significance for origin indentification , quality control and overall evaluation of C. japonicum .

Background:
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV), the causative agent of classical swine fever (CFS), is a highly contagious disease that poses a serious threat to Chinese pig populations.
Objectives:
Many provinces of China, such as Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Heilongjiang, and Liaoning provinces, have reported epidemics of CSFV, while the references to the epidemic of CSFV in Yunnan province are rare. This study examined the epidemic characteristics of the CSFV in Yunnan province.
Methods:
In this study, 326 tissue samples were collected from different regions in Yunnan province from 2015 to 2021. A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), sequences analysis, and phylogenetic analysis were performed for the pathogenic detection and analysis of these 326 clinical specimens.
Results:
Approximately 3.37% (11/326) of specimens tested positive for the CSFV by RTPCR, which is lower than that of other regions of China. Sequence analysis of the partial E2 sequences of eleven CSFV strains showed that they shared 89.0–100.0% nucleotide (nt) and 95.0–100.0% amino acid (aa) homology, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that these novel isolates belonged to the subgenotypes 2.1c and 2.1d, with subgenotype 2.1c being predominant.
Conclusions
The CSFV was sporadic in China’s Yunnan province from 2015 to 2021. Both 2.1c and 2.1d subgenotypes were found in this region, but 2.1c was dominant.

A 75-year-old patient was admitted with "progressive dysuria for more than 2 months" in January 2017. The tPSA level was 498 ng/ml and then diagnosed as metastatic prostate cancer (cT 3bN xM 1). For the resistance of abiraterone, gene mutation was detected during the endocrine therapy. After 5 months of endocrine therapy, the serum tPSA was decreased to a minimum of 12.5 ng/ml. Since July, the serum PSA level gradually rebounded, and the endocrine therapy was altered to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The level of tPSA was maintained at 104 ng/ml in October 2017, and ADT was discontinued. After 1 year of discontinuation, the re-examination of PSA was 3 205 ng/ml. As the first-line regimen for mCRPC, abiratone and prednisone combined with goserelin was used. After 5 months of treatment, the level of tPSA still showed progression. The drug resistance of abiraterone was considered, so the treatment was discontinued. Next-generation sequencing technology (NGS) revealed the presence of AR, FGFR3 and RIT1 mutations, while no HRR germline mutation was detected. Docetaxel combined with ADT was performed. It was changed to comprehensive treatment of goserelin + docetaxel in March 2019. During chemotherapy CT images indicated significant reduction of pelvic lymph nodes and left inguinal lymph nodes, while bone metastasis showed stable condition. In April 2020, the chemotherapy was terminated for the lower extremity edema, joint pain and other related discomfort. The level of tPSA was 289 ng/ml after the last chemotherapy. DNA sequencing testing were performed again, and the mutation of AR and AR-V7 was negative. According to the results of genetic testing, the tPSA continued to decrease to 23 ng/ml after 6 months of abiraterone rechallenge, the imagings suggested that no disease progression. After AR mutation turns negative after chemotherapy, patients with refractory CRPC can still obtain a good PSA response such as tumor control and other clinical benefits from abiraterone. Abiraterone rechallenge is probably a new attempt for AR mutant patients with refractory CRPC.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the clinical characteristics and molecular genetic mechanism of a fetus with recombinant chromosome 8 (Rec8) syndrome.
METHODS:
A fetus who was diagnosed with Rec8 syndrome at the Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University on July 20, 2021 due to high risk for sex chromosomal aneuploidy indicated by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) (at 21st gestational week) was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the fetus was collected. G-banded karyotyping and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were carried out on the amniotic fluid sample. Peripheral blood samples of the couple were also subjected to G banded karyotyping analysis.
RESULTS:
Prenatal ultrasonography at 23rd gestational week revealed hypertelorism, thick lips, renal pelvis separation, intrahepatic echogenic foci, and ventricular septal defect. The karyotype of amniotic fluid was 46,XX,rec(8)(qter→q22.3::p23.1→qter), and CMA was arr[GRCh37]8p23.3p23.1(158049_6793322)×1, 8q22.3q24.3(101712402_146295771)×3. The karyotype of the pregnant woman was 46,XX,inv(8)(p23.1q22.3), whilst that of her husband was normal.
CONCLUSION
The Rec8 syndrome in the fetus may be attributed to the pericentric inversion of chromosome 8 in its mother. Molecular testing revealed that the breakpoints of this Rec8 have differed from previously reported ones.

Currently, there are many studies on the mechanism of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), but there are few studies on its regulatory mechanism. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been recognized for their important role in controlling cellular dynamics such as metabolism and stress response, but the relationship between PTMs and antibiotic resistance gradually attracted the attention of researchers. Here, we summarize the definition of PTMs, and the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in M. tuberculosis and discuss how PTMs are involved in antibiotic resistance, in order to provide a new breakthrough for the development of new anti-Ttb drugs.

OBJECTIVETo assess the value of combined fetal karyotyping and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) for the verification of high-risk pregnancy signaled by noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS) based on high-throughput sequencing.
METHODSOne hundred and fifty-one pregnant women with high risks for aneuploidies of chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X and Y or pathological copy number variations (CNVs) by NIPS were subjected to amniocytic karyotyping and CMA analysis.
RESULTSOne hundred and forty-two women were found to have a high risk for fetal chromosomal aneuploidies, which included 83 cases of trisomy 21, 17 cases of trisomy 18, 2 cases of trisomy 13, and 40 cases of sex chromosome aneuploidies. Amniocytic karyotyping and CMA analysis has confirmed 81 cases of trisomy 21, 15 cases of trisomy 18, 10 cases of 47,XXY, 4 cases of 47,XXX, 2 cases of 47,XYY and 1 case of 46,X,del(X)(q26.1). Two trisomy 21, two trisomy 18, 2 trisomy 13, and 23 cases of sex chromosomal aneuploidies were verified as false positives. For 9 women with pathological fetal CNVs detected by NIPS, combined fetal karyotyping and CMA has confirmed 1 case of chromosome 13 microdeletion, 1 case of chromosome 18 microduplication, and 1 case of chromosome 18 deletion. For a case with 30 Mb duplication of chromosome 2 and 25 Mb duplication of chromosome 8, CMA analysis had no positive finding, while fetal umbilical cord blood karyotyping has yielded a 46,XX,dup(2)(p23.1p25.3)[13]/46,XX[87] karyotype. The remaining 5 cases were confirmed as false positive results.
CONCLUSIONCombined fetal karyotyping and CMA has provided a powerful tool for verifying high-risk fetuses signaled by NIPS.
