Objective:To review the diagnosis, treatment and quality of life of patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in seven medical centers in some areas of Hubei Province.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on age, disease course, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment status (including testing items, drug selection, and adverse reactions) of patients with ITP in seven medical centers in Hubei Province from January 2020 to December 2022. An online survey was conducted on the quality of life of patients using the ITP Patient Assessment Questionnaire (ITP-PAQ) .Results:Among the 1033 patients, those with newly diagnosed, persistent, and chronic ITP accounted for 39.8%, 19.1%, and 41.1%, respectively. Most patients exhibit varying degrees of bleeding. Regarding treatment, corticosteroids and thrombopoietin drugs are the most commonly chosen treatment drugs for ITP, and the adverse reactions to treatment mainly include diarrhea, liver dysfunction, and thrombosis. The ITP-PAQ survey of 125 patients revealed that ITP significantly impairs their life quality. Patients with ITP scored significantly lower in fatigue, sleep, fear, exercise, work, and social aspects.Conclusion:A relatively high proportion of patients with ITP progressed to the chronic phase. Corticosteroids and thrombopoietin drugs are the two main treatment drugs for ITP patients. The quality of life of patients with ITP is significantly reduced in multiple dimensions.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of haploidentical high-dose in vitro non-T-cell-depleted peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HDPSCT) in treating adult patients with Ph + acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) . Method:This retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical efficacy of 25 adult patients with Ph + ALL who underwent haplo-HDPSCT from July 2011 to June 2022 at our hospital. Results:This study included 25 patients with a median age of 27 (16-61) years, consisting of 12 males and 13 females. CR1 and ≥CR2 before transplantation were found in 23 and 2 cases, positive and negative minimal residual lesions were observed in 8 and 17 cases, and myeloablative conditioning and reduced-intensity conditioning were reported in 21 and 4 cases, respectively. Hematopoietic function was restored in all 25 patients after stem cell infusion. Of the 25 patients who underwent transplantation, 16 developed acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). The cumulative incidence rates of Ⅱ-Ⅳ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD were (40.4±11.3) % and (4.8±4.6) %, respectively. Four patients experienced relapse after transplantation, the cumulative relapse rates at 1 and 2 years after transplantation were (4.0±3.9) % and (14.5±7.9) %, respectively. The 2-year overall survival rate after transplantation was (81.3±8.5) % and the disease-free survival rate was (77.1±9.1) %.Conclusion:This study reveals that the unique haplo-HDPSCT protocol achieves good clinical efficacy in Ph + ALL treatment.

BACKGROUND:In the repair of large bone defects,a variety of factors such as seed cell passaging can cause senescence of osteoblasts,leading to a reduction in osteogenic differentiation activity after implantation of tissue-engineered bone.In recent years,a novel mechanism involving primary cilia in cell senescence has been widely studied,but the primary cilia-related mechanism of"passage senescence-reduced osteogenic activity"is not fully understood.OBJECTIVE:To explore the possible mechanisms by which primary cilia regulate the senescence of MC3T3-E1 cells.METHODS:The osteoblast precursor cell lines MC3T3-E1 were passaged to 10th generation cells(early passage)and 40th generation cells(late passage).siRNA was used to silence IFT88 to inhibit primary cilia formation.The cells were than grouped into passage 10 group,passage 40 group,passage 10+siRNA IFT88 group,and passage 40+siRNA IFT88 group.RT-PCR and western blot assays were used to detect the expression of the aging marker P16(CDKN2A),the osteogenic activity markers bone morphogenetic protein 2 and alkaline phosphatase,and the Hedgehog pathway IHH expression.Alizarin red staining and primary cilia immunofluorescence staining were performed.Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to analyze primary cilia positive rate and IHH and bone morphogenetic protein 2 expression.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The expression of CDKN2A(P16)in the passage 10 group was significantly higher than in the passage 40 group,but the difference disappeared after siRNA IFT88 intervention.(2)Meanwhile,the positive rate of primary cilia cells in the passage 10 group were higher than in the passage 40 group,while siRNA IFT88-significantly inhibited the expression of primary cilia in both passage 10 and passage 40 cells.(3)The transcriptional activity and protein expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 and alkaline phosphatase in the passage 10 group were higher than those in the passage 40 group.After inhibiting the expression of primary cilia with siRNA,the above differences were reduced or disappeared.(4)The positive rate of primary cilia cells was correlated with IHH and bone morphogenetic protein 2 protein expression.To conclude,primary cilia mediate the replicative senescence of osteogenic MC3T3-E1 cells and regulate osteogenic differentiation ability.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and serum changes of asprosin(ASP)levels in patients with essential hypertension and early renal damage.Methods According to urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(UACR),160 patients with essential hypertension were divided into the simple hypertension group(78 cases)and the early renal damage group(82 cases).Another 60 healthy subjects were selected as the control group.The differences of serum ASP,interleukin-6(IL-6)and UACR levels were compared between groups.The correlation between ASP and blood pressure,IL-6 and UACR was analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing early renal damage in essential hypertension.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of each index for early renal injury.Results The serum levels of ASP,IL-6 and UACR were higher in the early renal damage group than those in the control group and the simple hypertension group(all P＜0.05).The serum levels of ASP and IL-6 showed an increasing trend with the increase of blood pressure.ASP was positively correlated with systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP)and IL-6 levels in patients with essential hypertension(all P＜0.05).Serum ASP was positively correlated with SBP,UACR and IL-6 levels in essential hypertension patients(P＜0.05),and serum ASP was positively correlated with UACR and IL-6 levels in the early renal damage group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that higher levels of SBP,ASP and IL-6 were independent risk factors for early renal damage.ROC curve showed that ASP had the largest area under the curve(AUC)of 0.972(95%CI:0.950-0.993).The AUC of combined detection of ASP+IL-6+SBP was 0.986(95%CI:0.972-0.999).Conclusion The increased serum ASP level in patients with early renal damage in essential hypertension is a good predictor of early renal damage.The combined detection of ASP+IL-6+SBP is better than single detection.

Objective:To investigate the effects of wza gene deletion in Klebsiella pneumoniae on capsule formation ability and bacteriophage sensitivity. Methods:The wza deletion mutant strain was constructed through a temperature-sensitive plasmid-mediated homologous recombination. The growth curves of W14 and Δ wza were detected by measuring the optical density OD 600. In order to analyze the effect of gene wza on bacterial capsule formation, wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain were detected by transmission electron microscope, and their capsule contents were measured by quantifying the uronic acid contents. The plaque assay was used to detect bacterial sensitivity to bacteriophage in wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain. The t test was used to compare whether there were differences in the contents of uronic acid in the capsules of wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain. Results:The PCR results revealed that the Δ wza mutant strain was successfully constructed. Compared with wild-type strain W14, the growth curves of Δ wza on the solid plates demonstrated a slightly slower growth. However, no difference in growth was observed among wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strains in LB broth. The transmission electron microscope results showed that wza gene deletion resulted in the loss of capsule in bacteria. The uronic acid content assay suggested that the capsule content was significantly decreased in Δ wza mutant strain (45.963±2.795) μg/ml compared with wild-type strain W14 (138.800±5.201) μg/ml. There was a statistical difference between the two groups ( t=27.233, P<0.001). The plaque assay indicated that bacteria lost its sensitivity to bacteriophage when gene wza was deleted. Conclusion:Deletion of the wza gene impairs bacterial capsule formation ability and can affect bacterial sensitivity to bacteriophage phiW14.

Objective:To express and purify the phage depolymerase from hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv Kp) serotype K1 and validate its function. Methods:Phage that infected serotype K1-type hv Kp was isolated from hospital sewage. The biology and morphology of the phage were determined by plaque assay and transmission electron microscopy. The whole genome of the phage was sequenced by the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. The presence of depolymerase was determined by observing the plaque halo. Bioinformatic analysis and prokaryotic protein expression system were further used to predict and identify phage depolymerase. The depolymerase gene fragment was obtained by PCR and cloned into the pET28a expression vector, and the expression and purification of the depolymerase were completed in strain BL21. The depolymerase activities on the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolates were detected by plaque assay and low-speed centrifugation assay. Results:A lytic phage (phiA2) that infected serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolate was isolated from hospital sewage. It was typical of the Caudovirales order and Autographiviridae family, and its whole genome was 43 526 bp in length and contained 51 coding domain sequences. The phage phiA2-derived depolymerase phiA2-dep was predicted, expressed and purified. The plaque assay and low-speed centrifugation assay indicated that the depolymerase phiA2-dep had good lytic activity on the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolates. Conclusion:Depolymerase phiA2-dep can specifically degrade the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp, which has potential application value in treating bacterial infection.
