AIM: To investigate the ability of Chinese cobra snake venom-metalloproteinase(MT) to induce the histamine release from human mast cells and its potential mechanisms.METHODS: MT was purified from the snake venom by using heparin agarose and Superdex75 chromatography.Mast cells were dispersed from human lung, colon and tonsil tissues after digestion with collagenase and hyaluronidase.The dispersed mast cells were then challenged with MT,stimulus and control in LP4 tubes for 15 min at 37 ℃.A glass fibre-based fluorometric assay was used to measure histamine in the supernatants of dispersed mast cells.RESULTS: MT induced a dose-dependent release of histamine from human colon,lung and tonsil mast cells.As low as 0.03(mg/L) of MT was able to stimulate significant histamine release from human colon mast cells,but a minimum of 0.3 or 30 mg/L of MT was required to stimulate a similar level of histamine release from lung or tonsil mast cells,respectively.The release of histamine from colon and lung mast cells in response to MT was maximized at 12 min following the addition of the stimulus.This was quite different from the picture of the peak histamine release from tonsil mast cells,in which histamine release was maximized at 8 min following the addition of MT.Pretreatment of cells with metabolic inhibitors and pertussis toxin reduced dramatically histamine release from human colon,lung and tonsil mast cells by MT.In exogenous Ca~(2+) and Mg~(2+) free experiments,the release of histamine induced by MT was significantly decreased.CONCLUSION: Cobra snake venom MT induces human mast cells to release histamine through a G-protein-related mechanism,which may contribute to the pathogenesis of venomous snake bite.

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a group of syndromes caused by the disorder of metabolism of various substances in the body. The main clinical manifestations are dyslipidemia, central obesity, hypertension, abnormal glucose tolerance and insulin resistance. With the changes of diet structure and habits, the incidence rate of MS is increasing, and the patients are younger. It is an important factor in many diseases, such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia, cirrhosis and some cancers. MS has seriously affected people's lives and health. Central obesity and insulin resistance are recognized as important pathogenic factors. At present, the pathogenesis of MS and its components has not been fully understood. The clinical manifestations of metabolic syndrome are complex and diverse. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) believes that the occurrence of metabolic syndrome is related to such factors as proper diet, emotional disorders, excessive escape and little movement, old age and physical deficiency. TCM scholars have studied the pathogenesis of MS in such pathological factors as phlegm and blood stasis, such visceral functions as liver, spleen and kidney, roles of Qi and blood, and emotional factors. As the basic substance of organism, Qi is closely related to the process of metabolism. The occurrence of MS is closely related to the rise and fall of Qi moving to and from the body as well as the abnormal gasification function of the transformation of Qi. Qi is derived from the five internal organs, which are respectively called Heart Qi, liver Qi, spleen Qi, lung Qi and kidney Qi. The "Qi of the five internal organs" is involved in the whole process of the generation, transportation and excretion of the essence of the body. Based on the "Qi of five internal organs", this paper discusses the pathogenesis of MS with phlegm, blood stasis and water drink as pathological factors.

Related records about discipline of diagnosis and treatment of exogenous febrile diseases by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) were reviewed to summarize TCM knowledge about etiology, pathogenesis, progress and treatment of infectious epidemic diseases among exogenous febrile diseases. In consideration of onset time and major clinical manifestations of novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP), this disease is considered as within the scope of pestilence in TCM, it is located in the lung, with etiology being poison of winter-warm syndrome, the viruses enter body via mouth and nose, and invade pulmonary collaterals. Based on the syndrome characteristics proposed in diagnosis and treatment schemes of various regions as well as the researches on medication rules, the present study points out the core pathogenesis of NCP is epidemic toxin invading the lung, pathogenic heat obstructing the lung and toxic heat blocking the lung. It also analyzes theoretical formula features of TCM Lianhua Qingwen and related clinical and experimental research results, in order to prove the clinical value of this drug in the outbreak of NCP.

Objective:To develop a set of algorithms that could predict the precise size of acetabular cup preoperatively by the deep learning neural network technology.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on 30 patients with femoral head necrosis from April 2019 to April 2020, including 15 males and 15 females. At the age of (54.8±10.5) years (range 33-72 years). Thirteen hips on the left and seventeen hips on the right, who underwent primary unilateral THA. Based on the manually segmented hip joint CT database, a deep learning convolutional neural network was trained to realize automatic segmentation. A customized algorithm was created to fit the surface of the acetabulum. By the application of another deep learning convolutional neural network, the identification of anatomical points of the pelvis and correction of the pelvic position were realized. So that the placement of the acetabulum cup could be done. DOC (dice overlap coefficients) as well as the average error parameter were adopted to evaluate the accuracy of the above steps. The novel algorithm and Orthoview software were retrospectively used to template the acetabular cup separately. The results of both groups were compared with the actual size and the coincidence rate was calculated to evaluate the accuracy of the novel algorithm. To verify this algorithm, the conformance rate was calculated respectively.Results:Compared with other classical segmentation networks, the G-NET network can segment the pelvic with femoral head necrosis more accurately (DOC 92.51%± 6.70%). It also has better robustness. The average error of the point recognition network is 0.87 pixels. Among the 30 patients, the AI-based algorithm group had a complete coincidence rate of 96.7% and the Orthoview group had a complete coincidence rate of 73.3%. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.405, P=0.011). Conclusion:The artificial intelligence-based algorithm can segment the CT image series and identify the feature points of the patient's hip accurately. Compared with the conventional 2D preoperative planning method, the AI-based algorithm is relatively more accurate. This artificial intelligence-based 3D preoperative software has promising prospect to makeaccurate surgical plan efficiently.

Objective To evaluate the clinic value of five different ultrasonographic fetal parameters for prenatal diagnosis of pulmonary hypoplasia.Methods Two hundred and seventy-one normal singleton pregnancies with well-established dates between 20 and 40 weeks of gestation were studied to establish normal reference range of five different ultrasonographic fetal parameters.The five parameters,which could reflect fetal lung mass,were as follows:lung area/body weight ratio,lung area,thoracic circumference/abdominal circumference ratio,lung area/thoracic area ratio and lung area/head circumference.Thirty pregnancies with risk factors for pulmonary hyperplasia were studied for the usefulness of five parameters.Two or more standard deviations below the mean control group measurement were considered abnormal.The prenatal ultrasonic diagnoses of pulmonary hyperplasia were confirmed at neonatal follow-up examinations,on autopsy and by pathologic findings.Results Lung area and lung area/head circumference increased with gestational age,lung area/body weight ratio decreased with gestational age.The relationships among the two ratios(thoracic circumference/abdominal circumference ratio,lung area/thoracic area ratio)and gestational age were relatively constant. Abnormal lung area/body weight ratio had a higher diagnostic accuracy than other parameters.Sensitivity of the parameters,including lung area,lung area/body weight ratio,thoracic circumference/abdominal circumference ratio,lung area/thoracic area ratio and lung area/head circumference were 83%,97%,50%,70% and 87%,respectively.Sensitivity of the lung area/bedy weight ratio was 95%(20/21 fetuses);specificity,9/9 fetuses;positive predictive value,100% (20/20fetuses);negative predictive value,9/10;and accuracy 97% (29/30 fetuses).Conclusion Lung area/body weight ratio is a good predictor of pulmonary hypoplasia.
