Objective:To investigate renal impairment and ferroptosis due to severe blast injuries and related mechanism.Methods:The goats were placed 3 meters away from the center of an 8 kg TNT-equivalent explosive to carry out blast injury experiments.The physical parameters of blast waves were measured,and the pathological severity of blast injuries was graded and scored to assess the severity of injuries.Vital signs,blood gas parameters,and renal function markers were measured before injury and at 1,3,6,and 24 hours after injury.Renal tissue samples were collected at 24 hours after injury to prepare tissue sections,which were used to perform HE staining and measure the changes in the content of Fe2+and the expression of the ferroptosis-related marker proteins xCT and GPX4 in renal tissue,and Prussian blue staining was performed for renal tissue sections to investigate the mechanism associated with renal impairment and ferroptosis of renal cells.Results:Severe blast injuries accounted for the highest proportion of 47.2%in experi-mental goats,while mild,moderate,severe,and extremely severe injuries accounted for 2.8%,36.1%,47.2%,and 13.9%,respectively,and the pathologic severity score of blast injury was 2.56±0.15.For the goats after blast injury,there were significant increases in heart rate(F=12.750,P<0.01)and respiratory rate(F=6.500,P<0.01)and significant reductions in anal temperature(F=3.496,P<0.05),partial pressure of blood oxygen(F=24.630,P<0.01),and blood oxygen saturation(F=18.560,P<0.01),as well as significant increases in the levels of blood uric acid(F=22.320,P<0.01),serum creatinine(F=15.350,P<0.01),and blood urea nitrogen(F=22.310,P<0.01).Compared with the control group,swelling of renal tubular epithelial cells and narrowing of tubular lumen were observed at 24 hours after blast injury,with a significant increase in the content of Fe2+in renal tissue(t=5.933,P<0.01),significant reductions in the relative expression protein levels of GPX4(t=7.924,P<0.01)and xCT(t=4.483,P<0.01)in renal tissue,and deposi-tion of a large amount of iron ions in renal tubular epithelial cells.Conclusion:Experimental goats placed 3 meters away from the cen-ter of an 8 kg TNT-equivalent explosive can cause severe blast inju-ries,resulting in the onset of hypoxia,renal impairment,and ferrop-tosis of renal tubular epithelial cells.

Objective To target at the NKG2A-HLA-E inhibitory axis,a pluripotent stem cell(iPSC)-derived geneti-cally engineered natural killer cells(NK cells)with NKG2A knockout(NKG2A KO-iNK)were prepared and then their tumor-killing efficacy was evaluated in vitro.Methods NKG2A was knocked out in iPSCs using gene-editing technology.These cells were then differentiated into NKG2A KO-iNK cells.Surface markers at each differentiation stage were analyzed by flow cytometry.Western blot confirmed NKG2A knockout,and flow cytometry assessed expres-sion of activating receptors(NKG2D)and natural cytotoxicity receptors(NKp30,NKp44,NKp46)in NKG2A KO-iNK cells.Cytotoxic activity against tumor cell lines with varying human leukocyte antigen E(HLA-E)expression level was evaluated via lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release assay.Results Co-transfection of iPSCs with Cas9 pro-tein and three small-guide RNAs(sgRNAs)targeting at exons 1 and 2 of the KLRC1 gene(encoding NKG2A)suc-cessfully generated monoclonal NKG2A-knockout iPSCs(NKG2A KO-iPSCs)with a single T-base insertion in exon 1.During iPSC differentiation into NK cells,CD34 expression reached 30％-50％at the embryoid body(EB)stage(day 8),while CD56 and CD 16 expression exceeded 80％by day 28.Western blot confirmed complete NKG2A knockout in NKG2A KO-iNK cells.Flow cytometry revealed comparable expression level of activating receptor NKG2D and cytotox-icity receptors(NKp30,NKp44,NKp46)between NKG2A KO-iNK and wild-type iNK(WT-iNK)cells.The LDH assay results indicated that the cytotoxic activity of NKG2A KO-iNK cells against the HLA-E highly-expressed B-cell precursor leukemia cell line Nalm6 cells was significantly higher than that of WT-iNK cells,while there was no signif-icant difference between them and human myeloma cell line H929 cells with low HLA-E expression and human hepa-tocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 cells with almost no HLA-E expression.Interferon-γ(IFN-γ)pretreatment up regulated HLA-E expression in Nalm6 cells,further amplifying NKG2A KO-iNK-mediated cytotoxicity.Conclusions By disrupting the NKG2A-HLA-E inhibitory axis,NKG2A KO-iNK cells exhibit markedly enhanced in vitro cytotoxic-ity against HLA-E-high tumor cells.This result highlights their potential function as a novel adoptive cell therapy strategy for cancers reliant on HLA-E-mediated immune evasion.

γδ T cells are a kind of innate immune T cell. They have not attracted sufficient attention because they account for only a small proportion of all immune cells, and many basic factors related to these cells remain unclear. However, in recent years, with the rapid development of tumor immunotherapy, γδ T cells have attracted increasing attention because of their ability to exert cytotoxic effects on most tumor cells without major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restriction. An increasing number of basic studies have focused on the development, antigen recognition, activation, and antitumor immune response of γδ T cells. Additionally, γδ T cell-based immunotherapeutic strategies are being developed, and the number of clinical trials investigating such strategies is increasing. This review mainly summarizes the progress of basic research and the clinical application of γδ T cells in tumor immunotherapy to provide a theoretical basis for further the development of γδ T cell-based strategies in the future.
