ObjectiveTo construct a stable monoclonal human embryonic kidney 293 （HEK293） cell line expressing recombinant human coagulation factor Ⅶ （rhFⅦ） and evaluate the expression level and procoagulant bioactivity of rhFⅦ. MethodsThe plasmid pCDNA3.1-EGFP-FⅦ was transfected into HEK293 cells to verify the effectiveness of the transfection system. The plasmid pCDNA3.1-FⅦ was transfected into HEK293 cells， and monoclonal stable transfected cell lines were selected using geneticin （G418）. The transcription of the FⅦ gene was identified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. The expression level of rhFⅦ in the supernatant of the monoclonal stable transfected cell line was detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot. The concentration of rhFⅦ was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and the procoagulant activity of rhFⅦ was measured by human coagulation factor Ⅶ potency assay. ResultsHEK293 cells transfected with pcDNA3.1-EGFP-FⅦ showed green fluorescence， indicating that rhFⅦ was successfully expressed in the supernatant of HEK293 cells after transient transfection with pcDNA3.1-FⅦ. The monoclonal stable transfected cell line was obtained by G418 screening. RT-PCR identified that the FⅦ gene was integrated into the genome of the monoclonal stable transfected cell line. The cell viability was good as detected by Cell Counting Kit-8， and a single band of rhFⅦ was obtained by purification of the cell supernatant. The highest rhFⅦ expression was （1.27±0.09） mg/L， and the highest procoagulant activity was （380.29±13.80）%.

Objective To compare the periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics(PAOO)effects of corticotomy with full mu-coperiosteal flap(flapped corticotomy)and corticotomy-only on accelerating orthodontic tooth movement.Methods A total of 60 healthy male SD rats(weighing 180-200 g)were selected and randomly divided into three groups.There were 20 rats each in the flapped corticotomy group,the corticotomy-only group,and the control group.After applying orthodontic instruments,5 rats each in the surgical group and the control group were killed by excessive anesthesia on 0,1,3,and 7 days after tooth movement.The tooth move-ment distances of the rats in the control group and the experimental group were counted,and immunohistochemical staining was per-formed to observe the corresponding molecular biological changes.Results There was no significant difference in accelerating ortho-dontic tooth movement between the flapped corticotomy group and the corticotomy-only group.Compared with traditional orthodontic tooth movement,both the flapped corticotomygroup and the corticotomy-only group could bring an increase in the expression of RANKL on the pressed periodontal side while there was no significant difference between the two experimental groups.Both the flapped corticot-omy and non-flapped corticotomy could enlarge the area of tissue formation in the periodontal tension zone,and still there was no signif-icant difference between the two surgical methods.Compared with traditional orthodontic tooth movement,both the flapped corticotomy group and the corticotomy-only group could lead to an increase in ALP,OCN and OPN expression on the periodontal tension zone.Conclusion Both flapped corticotomy and corticotomy play a significant role in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement and promoting alveolar bone formation in the early stage.Both surgical methods of PAOO can provide more efficient and stable biological support for orthodontic treatment.

Objective:To analyze by bioinformatics the association between the expression of membrane-associated tyrosine/threonine protein kinase 1(PKMYT1)in glioma with its prognostic value,biological function,drug sensitivity,gene mutation,and immune infiltration.Methods:The differential expression of PKMYT1 was analyzed based on the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database(CGGA)and the Cancer Genome Atlas database(TCGA).Pathways likely to be enriched for PKMYT1 were predicted by gene ontology analysis(GO)and gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA).PKMYT1 was subjected to Pearson correlation and gene set variation analysis(GSVA)with cell cycle-related genes and gene sets.The survival prognosis,gene mutation,drug sensitivity and immune infiltration were further analyzed for PKMYT1 high and low expression groups of glioma patients.Results:PKMYT1 was significantly highly expressed in WHO high-grade glioma(P<0.000 1),IDH wild-type glioma(P<0.05),and glioblastoma(P<0.000 1).Overall survival(OS)of patients in the PKMYT1 low expression group was significantly higher than that of the high expression group(P<0.05).Cox regression analysis showed that PKMYT1 expression level was an independent prognostic factor for OS(P<0.05).GO and GSEA analyses showed that the gene sets co-expressed with PKMYT1 were mainly enriched in signaling pathways such as cell cycle,DNA replication and DNA damage repair.Pearson correlation and GSVA analyses showed that the expression of PKMYT1 was significantly and positively correlated with the cell cycle-related genes,gene sets and cell cycle checkpoint genes(P<0.01).Drug sensitivity analysis revealed that patients in the PKMYT1 high expression group had high sensitivity osimertinib,dabrafenib,carmustine and cediranib(P<0.05).Mutation analysis revealed that the IDH1 gene had a higher mutation frequency in the PKMYT1 low expression group.The results of immune infiltration analysis showed that PKMYT1 expression was significantly positively correlated with glioma stroma score(r=0.13,P<0.001),immune score(r=0.11,P<0.01)and ESTIMATE score(r=0.13,P<0.001);and was significantly positively correlated with immune cell infiltration level of regulatory T(Treg)cells and M2-type macrophages(P<0.05).Conclusion:Patients with high PKMYT1 expression have a poorer prognosis,and the mechanism may be related to tumor immune infiltration and cell cycle regulation.PKMYT1 is expected to be a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of glioma.

BACKGROUND: Tissue engineering holds promise for vascular repair and regeneration by mimicking the extracellular matrix of blood vessels. However, achieving a functional and thick vascular wall with aligned fiber architecture by electrospinning remains a significant challenge. METHODS: A novel electrospinning setup was developed that utilizes an auxiliary electrode and a spring. The impact of process parameters on fiber size and morphology was investigated. The structure and functions of the scaffolds were evaluated through material characterization and assessments of cellular biocompatibility. RESULTS: The new setup enabled controlled deposition of fibers in different designed orientations. The fabricated small-diameter vascular scaffolds consisted of an inner layer of longitudinally oriented fibers and an outer layer of circumferentially oriented fibers (L + C vascular scaffold). Key parameters, including rotational speed, the utilization of the auxiliary electrode, and top-to-collector distance (TCD) significantly influenced fiber orientation. Additionally, voltage, TCD, feed rate, needle size, auxiliary electrode and collector-auxiliary electrode distance affected fiber diameter and distribution. Mechanical advantages and improved surface wettability of L + C vascular scaffold were confirmed through tensile testing and water contact angle. Cellular experiments indicated that L + C vascular scaffold facilitated cell adhesion and proliferation, with human umbilical vein endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells attaching and elongating along the fiber direction of the inner and outer layer, respectively. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the feasibility of fabricating fiber-aligned, thick-walled vascular scaffolds using a modified electrospinning setup. The findings provided insights into how the auxiliary electrode, specific collector influenced fiber deposition, potentially advancing biomimetic vascular scaffold engineering.

Objective To investigate the safety, economic benefits and psychological effects of day breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Methods The demographic data and clinical data of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgeries in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected; the demographic data, clinical data, medical and related transportation costs, and preoperative and postoperative BREAST-Q scores of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2021 to June 2022 were prospectively collected. The safety, economic benefit, and psychological satisfaction of day surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 42 women with breast cancer were included in the retrospective study and 39 women with breast cancer were included in the prospective study. In both prospective and retrospective studies, the mean age of patients in both groups were <50 years. There were only statistical differences between the two groups in the aspects of hypertension (P=0.022), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P=0.037) and postoperative pathological estrogen receptor (P=0.033) in the prospective study. In postoperative complications, there were no statistical differences in the surgical-related complications or anesthesia-related complications between the two groups in either the prospective study or the retrospective study (P>0.05). In terms of the overall cost, we found that the day surgery group was more economical than the ward surgery group in the prospective study (P=0.002). There were no statistical differences in postoperative psychosocical well-being, sexual well-being, satisfaction with breasts or chest condition between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion It is safe and reliable to carry out breast conserving surgery in day surgery center under strict management standards, which can save medical costs and will not cause great psychological burden to patients.
