BACKGROUND:Wide variation between individuals leads to instability of drug concentration that stil troubles transplant recipients. Therefore, individual therapy has always been a hot topic folowing transplantation. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress in the genomics and gene polymorphism of the main categories of immunosuppressive drugs after kidney transplantation. METHODS:A computer-based search of Wanfang and PubMed databases was used to retrieve relevant articles published from January 2005 to August 2014. The keywords were “renal transplantation; immunosuppressant drugs; polymorphism; individual treatment” in Chinese and English, respectively. Finaly, 50 articles related to genomics and gene polymorphisms of immunosuppressive drugs after kidney transplantation were enroled in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Immunosuppressant drugs have been widely used among renal transplant recipients to decrease post-renal transplantation rejection rate and greatly improve the survival rate of renal transplant recipients. Because of its certain side effects and wide variation between individuals, therapeutic drug monitoring should be employed routinely after transplantation to keep blood levels within the therapeutic range. This monitor system is effective to avoid post-renal transplantation rejections and drug side effects to a certain extent. Research on the relationship between pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and genetic factors which combined with therapeutic drug monitoring provides possibility to give specific doses that wil improve efficacy while decrease side effects of immunosuppressive drugs, thereby further improving the long-term graft survival rate.

Objective To investigate the role of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) and blood procalcitonin (PCT) in diagnosis of traumatic Intestinal rupture in early stage.Methods The clinical data of 58 patients with abdominal injuries admitted from May 2012 to April 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.All 58 patients were divided into intestinal rupture group (n =21) and nonintestinal rupture group (n =37).The concentrations of IFABP and PCT were detected,analyzed and compared between two groups at different intervals.Results The IFABP and PCT in intestinal rupture group were significantly higher than those in non-intestinal rupture group.The IFABP and PCT in intestinal rupture group significantly decreased after operations.There were significantly differences in IFABP and PCT between two groups at admission,4 hours after admission,preoperative period,and 24 hours after operation.However,these differences disappeared at 72 hours after operation.At the same time,the accuracy rate 92.4％,sensitivity 96.3％,specificity 72.8％ found in combination of these two biomarkers were significantly higher than those of IFABP and PCT measured separately.Conclusions The combination of IFABP and PCT detection can be used as an indicator for the diagnosis of traumatic intestinal rupture in the early stage.

Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics and the evolution of the influenza A (H3N2) virus strains circulating in Jiangsu province between 2013 and 2014.Methods This study analyzed thirty-one representative strains of influenza A (H3N2) virus, which were isolated in different regions of Jiangsu province and during different time periods from 2013 to 2014.Results Genetic distances in nucleic acid and amino acid between a strain used for vaccine production (A/Texas/50/2012) and the 31 strains were 0.010 5 and 0.012 4.Similarities between them in nucleic acid and amino acid sequences were 97.9%-99.6% and 97.2%-99.3%.Phylogenetic analysis showed that the hemagglutinin (HA) genes of the 31 strains were divided into three different groups.Three strains isolated in 2013 and three strains isolated in 2014 belonged to Group 1 and Group 2, respectively, while the others belonged to Group 3.Three positive selection sites (237, 366 and 367) in HA protein were observed by REL model.Compared with the strain used for vaccine production, the 31 strains were characterized by amino acid substitutions (N128A/T and P198S/A) in HA protein and all of the mutations located in B-cell epitopes.The total number of mutation sites reached 24.Compared with the A/Texas/50/2012 strain, seven strains presented the glycosylation site 126NWT, and three strains showed disappeared glycosylation sites of 45NSS and 144NNS.Evaluation of vaccine efficacy for A(H3N2) virus strains showed that the vaccine efficacy was not very well.Conclusion The HA gene of A(H3N2) virus had undergone a greater variation and the vaccine efficacy was not very well in Jiangsu province during 2013 to 2014, which made the influenza A(H3N2) virus become the circulating strain.

AIM: To investigate the changes of small intestine villus and sublingual microcirculation perfusion in the rabbits during endotoxic shock by sidestream dark-field imaging (SDF) after resuscitation to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) level.METHODS: New Zealand white rabbits (n=60) were randomly divided into 2 groups (group of villus and group of sublingua).The fistula operation of ileum was performed.Lipopolysaccharide was injected to establish endotoxic shock model, and fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer's solution, 30 mL·kg-1·h-1) was given to maitain the MAP of the animals to 80 mmHg.Continuous norepinephrine was intravenously injected at 0.5~1 μg·kg-1·min-1 only if fluid therapy did not maintain the MAP level.The changes of microcirculatory perfusion indexes in small intestine villus and sublingual tissues such as vessels per villus (VV), microvascular flow index (MFI), proportion of perfused villi (PPVi), villus border score, villus vessel score, total vessel density (TVD), perfused vessel density (PVD) and proportion of perfused vessels (PPVe) were continuously observed and recorded by SDF before shock, during shock and after fluid resuscitation.RESULTS: MFI and PPVi in small intestine villus, and MFI, PPVe, TVD and PVD in sublingual tissues were significantly decreased after shock (P<0.01).Compared with MFI in sublingual microcirculation, MFI in villus was significantly decreased (P<0.01).MFI and PPVi in small intestine villus, and MFI, PPVe, TVD and PVD in sublingual tissues were improved after recovered to the target MAP by fluid resuscitation (P<0.05).However, MFI in small intestine villus was significantly lower than that in sublingual tissues after fluid resuscitation (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: The difference between small intestine villus and sublingual microcirculation perfusion during endotoxic shock is observed.The descent degree of microcirculation perfusion in small intestine villus is larger than that in sublingual tissues after shock, and the recovery degree of small intestine villus microcirculation is lower than that of sublingual microcirculation afer fluid resuscitation.

Objective Changes of small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion in sidestream dark-field (SDF) imaging in the rabbits during endotoxic shock after fluid resuscitation with different target mean arterial pressure (MAP), and evaluation of feasibility of monitoring small intestine villus microcirculation by SDF were studied. Methods Sixty standard New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: low target MAP group (group A, n = 30) and high target MAP group (group B,n = 30). Fistula operation of ileum was madein vitro, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 2 mg/kg) was injected to establish endotoxic shock model. Group A was administered with the lower dose fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer solution, 20 mL·kg-1·h-1) for target MAP of 65 mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa); group B was administered with the higher dose fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer solution, 30 mL·kg-1·h-1) for MAP of 80 mmHg. Continuous norepinephrine intravenous injection (0.5-1.0μg·kg-1·min-1) was administered only after fluid therapy couldn't reach the target MAP. The changes of small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion indexes such as vessels per villus (VV), proportion of perfused villi (PPV), microvascular flow index (MFI), borders of villus score (BVS), vessels villus score (VVS) were continuously observed and recorded before the shock, during the shock and after fluid resuscitation using SDF imaging. The differences of microcirculation perfusion were compared between two groups using the specific parameter evaluation system to determine severity of villi microcirculation and injury scores at different stages.Results VV and borders of villus were clear and contact before shock in two groups. After shock, VV, PPV were significantly decreased in both two groups, the borders of villus were destroyed, MFI, BVS, VVS and the total score of villi injury microcirculation were obviously and severely decreased. Partial blood flow of villous capillaries after fluid resuscitation was recovered in two groups, but the perfusion of some region was un-balanced with the outworn borders of villus. VV were rose as compared before and after fluid resuscitation in groups A and B (vessels: 1.21±0.22 vs. 0.81±0.12, 1.54±0.28 vs. 0.79±0.13), and PPV [(31±4)% vs. (12±2)%, (38±5)% vs. (13±3)%], MFI (1.55±0.09 vs. 1.09±0.03, 1.97±0.11 vs. 1.05±0.03), VVS (points: 1.22±0.08 vs. 0.89±0.02, 2.06±0.15 vs. 0.90±0.02) and the sum of MFI, BVS, VVS (3.70±0.19 vs. 2.85±0.07, 5.01±0.29 vs. 2.88±0.08) were significant rose (allP< 0.05). The recovery of group B was better than that of group A, and the injury score was reduced. But BVS were not increased in both groups compared with before and after shock (points: 0.93±0.05 vs. 0.87±0.03, 0.98±0.09 vs. 0.93±0.05, bothP > 0.05).Conclusions For the small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion, the higher target MAP (80 mmHg) after fluid resuscitation or/and vasoconstrictor drugs usage were probably better than the relatively lower target MAP (65 mmHg) during endotoxic shock. SDF imaging is a very promising technique for intestinal villi microcirculatory visualization and assessment.

Objective To discuss the serum value of human epididymis protein 4(HE4) in the diagnosis of lung can-cer and to analyse the serum levels of HE4 in different pathological types and TNM staging of lung cancer patients. Meth-ods Forty-seven patients with lung cancer and thirty-one healthy controls were selected to join this study. According to various pathological types and TNM staging, the selected lung cancer patients were divided into different subgroups under the two categories. The serum HE4 levels were compared between subgroups. ROC curves of serum HE4 level and serum CEA level were drawn for the diagnosis of lung cancer with the pathological diagnosis as the golden standard. Results There was significantly higher level of serum HE4 in lung cancer group[(253.47±170.03) pmol/L] than that of healthy group [(84.09±51.03) pmol/L](t=5.365). There were no significant differences in serum levels of HE4 between different pathological subgroups of lung cancer patients [non-small cell carcinoma group (241.34±161.81) pmol/L vs small cell carcinoma group (293.5±198.76) pmol/L, t=0.847;squamous cell carcinoma group (304.29±287.61) pmol/L, adenocarcinoma group (224.39± 122.15) pmol/L and small cell carcinoma group F=0.969;and different TNM staging subgroups [ (stageⅠ~Ⅲgroup (255.27± 183.04) pmol/L vs stageⅣgroup (288.16±216.49) pmol/L, t=0.528]. Compared with ROC curves of serum HE4 and serum CEA,the area under the curve (AUC) of serum HE4 (0.902) was larger than that of serum CEA(0.765),( P>0.001). When the serum level of HE4 was 149.145 pmol/L, the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of lung cancer were 72.3% and 90.3%. When the serum level of CEA was 4.685μg/L, the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of lung cancer were 57.4%and 83.9%. Conclusion The serum level of HE4 is a sensitive and specific tumor marker in lung cancer. There are no significant differences in the serum levels of HE4 between different pathological types and different TNM staging in lung cancer patients. The detection of serum levels of HE4 are useful for the diagnosis of lung cancer.

Objective Digital PCR ( dPCR ) was established to detect plasma epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and was evaluated in terms of analytical performance and clinical application significance.Methods The specific primers and probes for EGFR T790M mutation and wildtype were designed to establish dPCR platform.Limit of blank, sensitivity and linearity of dPCR were evaluated by the detection of plasmids with different concentrations to set up optimal reporting system and reanalyzing process.The mutation of EGFR T790M in plasma and tissue samples from 10 patients with advanced NSCLC resistant to EGFR-TKI therapy who were enrolled in Zhongshan Hospital Fudan University from January 2014 to October 2015 were analyzed by dPCR and amplification refractory ( ARMS) , respectively.The consistency was evaluated between dPCR and ARMS by Chi-square test.The correlation of T790M abundance detected by dPCR between plasma and tissue samples was also analyzed by Peasrson correlation analysis.Results Limit of blank and sensitivity of dPCR was 10 copies and 0.01%, respectively.dPCR was evaluated as linear in the range of 0.01%-100%( Y=1.226X-3.984,R2 =0.999 ).The consistency between dPCR and ARMS of tissue samples was good ( kappa=0.80), while the positive rates of plasma T790M detected by dPCR was significantly higher than ARMS (50%vs 20%,P<0.05).It was found that T790M abundance detected by dPCR was highly correlated between lung cancer tissue and plasma ( R =0.923, P <0.05 ) using Pearson correlation analysis. Conclusions A new method of dPCR with high sensitivity and absolute quantification is established for the detection of EGFR T790M mutation in plasma from advanced NSCLC patients, which brings tumor liquid biopsy into real.It has the ability to provide the most direct and valuable guidance for clinicians to make decision on EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy in patients with advanced NSCLC resistant to EGFR-TKI.

BACKGROUND:Foreign studies have found that the magnesium alloy stent is safe and effective, but there are few studies on the degradation performance of magnesium alloy stents in China.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the degradation of degradable AZ31 magnesium alloy stent in the rabbit abdominal aorta and the effect of degradation process on vascularization.METHODS:Twenty-eight rabbits were enrolled, and the degradable AZ31 magnesium alloy stent was implanted into the rabbit abdominal aorta. Postoperative abdominal aortic X-ray examination and histological observation were done at 30, 60, 90, 120 days after implantation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) X-ray examination: 30 days after implantation, the stent expanded completely with structural integrity; 60 days after implantation, the stent deformation, partial stent fracture, and lose of support were found; 90 days after implantation, only a small amount of support rod residues were found, and the majority of the stent was degraded; and 120 days after implantation, there was no support rod residual, and the stent was degraded completely. (2) Histological observation: 60 days after implantation, the number of residual support rods was less than that 30 days after implantation (P< 0.05), the number value at 90 days after implantation was lower than that at 30 and 60 days after implantation (P< 0.05), and the number value at 120 days after implantation was lower than that at 30, 60, 90 days after implantation (P < 0.05), indicating that the number of residual support rods was negatively correlated with post-implantation days. The time for complete stent degradation was 124.8 days. The intimal area at 90 days after implantation was higher than that at 30, 60, 120 days after implantation (P < 0.05), while the lumen area was smaler than that at 30, 60, 120 days after implantation (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the intimal area and lumen area at latter three time points after implantation. To conclude, the degradation of the degradable AZ31 magnesium alloy stent in the rabbit abdominal aorta can be completed within 124.8 days, and at 90 days after the stent is implanted, vascular intimal hyperplasia and lumen stenosis are most serious, and then gradualy reduced.
