Endosomal TLRs (TLR3/7/8/9) are highly analogous innate immunity sensors for various viral or bacterial RNA/DNA molecular patterns. Among them, TLR7, in particular, has been suggested to be a target for various inflammatory disorders and autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); but few small-molecule inhibitors with elaborated mechanism have been reported in literature. Here, we reported a well-characterized human TLR7-specific small-molecule inhibitor, TH-407b, with promising potency and negligible cytotoxicity through a novel binding mechanism. Notably, TH-407b not only effectively inhibited TLR7-mediated pro-inflammatory signaling in a variety of cultured cell lines but also demonstrated potent inflammation suppressing activities in primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) derived from SLE patients. Furthermore, TH-407b showed prominent efficacy in vivo, improved survival rate and ameliorated symptoms of SLE model mice. To obtain molecular insights into the TH-407b derivatives' inhibition mechanism, we performed the structural analysis of TLR7/TH-407b complex using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) method. As an atomistic resolution cryo-EM structure of the TLR family, it not only of value to facilitate structure-based drug design, but also shed light to methodology development of small proteins using EM. Significantly, TH-407b has unveiled an inhibition strategy for TLR7 via stabilizing its resting/inactivated state. Such a resting state could be generally applicable to all TLRs, rendering a useful method for targeting this group of important immunological receptors.

【Objective】 To investigate the distribution and molecular basis of A2 subtype among blood donors in Guangzhou. 【Methods】 Whole blood samples of 793 group A blood donors in Guangzhou Blood Center were randomly collected. A2 subtype was screened by anti-A1 lectin in 96-well plate, and ABO typing was confirmed by the tube test. Then, the genomic DNA of A2 subtype blood donors was extracted, and the exons 6-7 of ABO gene were sequenced to determine the genotype of A2 subtype. 【Results】 Among 793 group A blood donors, there were 13 cases of A2 subtype, and the frequency in group A was 1.64%(13/793). The sequencing results of exons 6-7 of ABO gene showed that 10 of the 13 A2 subtypes carried A2 alleles, which were ABO^*A2.05/ ABO^*O.01.01 (n=5), ABO^*A2.05/ ABO^*O.01.02(n=2), ABO^*A2.01/ABO^*O.01.01(n=1) and ABO^*A2.01/ ABO^*O.01.02(n=2), respectively. The other 3 cases only carried ABO^*A1.02 alleles. 【Conclusion】 The main genotype of A2 subtype in Guangzhou is ABO^*A2.05, followed by ABO^*A2.01.

【Objective】 To develop a new approach for the preparation of 0.7~0.8 hematocrit concentrated washed red blood cells(RBCs) for fetal anemia in utero transfusion and apply it in clinical. 【Methods】 The erythrocyte suspension and frozen stored erythrocytes within expiry date in Guangzhou Blood Center from March 2020 to February 2021 were taken to prepare concentrated washed RBCs. According to the derivation formula, corresponding weight of RBC preservation solution was added to obtain 0.7~0.8 hematocrit concentrated washed RBCs. Routine blood test data were statistically analyzed by single-sample t test, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Qualified Rh-negative/ O-type 0.7~0.8 hematocrit concentrated RBCs within expiry date were used in clinical intrauterine blood transfusion. 【Results】 The hematocrit of concentrated washing RBCs prepared by the new approach could reach 0.7~0.8. The RBCs count (8.389 ±0.808)×1 0¹²/ L and hemoglobin content(233.730±15.498)g/L were higher while the erythrocyte count (0.732±0.469)×10⁹ /L and platelets count(26.000±26.276)×10⁹/L were lower than the normal values of adults. The mean erythrocyte volume(fL), hemoglobin content(pg) and concentration(g/L )were 88.123±6.359, 30.004±2.809 and 339.980±11.865, respectively, which were normal values of adults. Fetal anemia was significantly improved and the prognosis was good after intrauterine blood transfusion. 【Conclusion】 The 0.7~0.8 hematocrit concentrated washed RBCs prepared by the new approach is consistent with the special blood requirements during fetal anaemia transfusion, meets the clinical treatment standards, and can be applied in clinical.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of microsurgical treatment in cavernous sinus tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 87 patients with cavernous sinus tumor treated by microsurgery from January, 2010 to August, 2019 were analysed retrospectively. The surgical approaches and microsurgical skills for common tumors in Cavernous Sinus region were discussed. The follow-up included outpatient and telephone follow-ups, and the follow-up results were evaluated by KPS score.Results:Among the 87 cases, 57 were totally resected (65.5%), 14 were subtotal resected (16.1%) and 16 were major resected (18.4%). Hospitalisation ranged from 14 to 98 days, with an average of 29 days. Postoperative complications occurred in 30 cases with cranial nerve injury, 2 brain stem injury, 4 postoperative bleeding, 5 cerebrospinal fluid leakage, 4 infection, 1 Pituitary damage and 1 death. Prognosis and follow-up analysis showed 68 cases with KPS>60 and 66 with KPS>80 at 1 month after surgery; 74 with KPS>70 and 72 with KPS>80 at 3 months after surgery; 78 with KPS>80 by 12 months after surgery. During the follow-up period of 6-120 months, 3 cases died. Recurrence: 6 of incomplete resection of meningioma, were in 1-6 years after the surgery, 4 of incomplete resection of schwannoma in 1-8 years, 2 of pituitary adenoma respectively in 13 and 16 months after the surgery. There was no recurrence after reoperation. Two cases of chondrosarcoma, 3 of chordoma and 3 of germinoma were treated with radiotherapy, and during the follow-up, there was no progress of the focus. No tumor progression or recurrence was found in other cases during follow-up.Conclusion:Surgery of cavernous sinus tumor is difficult due to frequent postoperative complications. Reasonable preoperative plan, surgical approach and precise microsurgical techniques are the keys in reduction of postoperative complications and in the improvement of prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of an integrated traditional Chinese and Western medication regimen on depression in the elderly.Methods:Sixty elderly patients with depression were randomly divided into two groups.The integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine group was treated with an in-house preparation composed of traditional Chinese medicine ingredients plus Escitalopram oxalate for 4 weeks, and the control group was treated with Escitalopram oxalate for 4 weeks.The clinical efficacy was assessed by the Hamilton depression(HAMD)scale.Adverse drug reactions were assessed by the treatment emergent symptoms scale(TESS).Results:After 4 weeks of treatment, HAMD scores in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment, with a greater reduction in HAMD scores in the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine group than in the control group(0.71±4.36 vs. 0.52±3.45, t=2.54, P=0.03). TESS scores were lower in the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine group than in the control group after 4 weeks of treatment(8.42±5.30 vs.16.01±7.02, t=3.25, P=0.02). Conclusions:Compared with Western medicine therapy alone, the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medication regimen has better efficacy and fewer adverse drug reactions for the treatment of depression in the elderly.
