Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has emerged as an intractable cancer with scanty therapeutic regimens. The aberrant activation of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) are reported to be common in CCA patients. However, the underpinning mechanism remains poorly understood. Deubiquitinase (DUB) is regarded as a main orchestrator in maintaining protein homeostasis. Here, we identified Josephin domain-containing protein 2 (JOSD2) as an essential DUB of YAP/TAZ that sustained the protein level through cleavage of polyubiquitin chains in a deubiquitinase activity-dependent manner. The depletion of JOSD2 promoted YAP/TAZ proteasomal degradation and significantly impeded CCA proliferation

Objective To understand and analyze the infection status of human parasites in Nanchang City, so as to offer a scientific basis for control of parasitic disease. Methods In 2014, a survey was performed according to the scheme of The 3rd National Survey of Principal Human Parasites. Intestinal parasites were surveyed among the residents in Jinxian County and Anyi County, Qingyunpu District and Qingshanhu District in Nanchang City, including the soil-transmitted nematodes (Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura and hookworm), Enterobius vermicularis, tapeworm and intestinal protozoa. Clonorchis sinensis was surveyed among the residents in Qingyunpu District and Qingshanhu District. Toxoplasma gondii was surveyed among the residents in two rural areas (Nanchang County and Xinjian County) and two urban areas (Donghu District and Xihu District). The ovums of the soil-transmitted nematodes, Clonorchis sinensis , tapeworm and other helminths were examined by the Kato-Katz, while Enterobius vermicularis among children was examined by cellophane anal swab, trophozoites and cysts of intestinal protozoa by saline smearing and iodine smearing , and IgG antibodies of Toxoplasma gondii by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Intestinal parasites were surveyed among 2424 residents in the whole city, in which 2414 residents were tested for the infection of soil-transmitted nematodes and tapeworm;1875 residents were tested for intestinal protozoa infection;74 children were tested for eggs of Enterobius vermicularis; 539 residents were tested for Clonorchis sinensis; and 2400 residents were tested for Toxoplasma gondii. Six kinds of intestinal parasites were found citywide, with a total infection rate of 9.49% (230/2424). The infection rate of soil-transmitted nematodes was 8 . 70% ( 210/2414 ) , in which the infection rate of Ascaris lumbricoides was 0.04% (1/2414), the rate of Trichuris trichiura was 0.91% (22/2414), and of hookworm was 7.83%(189/2414). The infection rate among 3 - 6 years old children of Enterobius vermicularis was 22.97% ( 17/74 ) . Tapeworm and Clonorchis sinensis were not found . The infection rate of intestinal protozoa was 0.21%(4/1875). The positive rate of Toxoplasma gondii's IgG antibody was 5.17% (124/2400). Conclusions In Nanchang City, the infection rate of soil-transmitted nematodes (Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura) and intestinal protozoa was lower. However, the infection rates of hookworm, Toxoplasma gondii and Enterobius vermicularis among 3 - 6 years old children are increasing in local areas. That should be the focus in prevention and control of parasitic disease in the future.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of malaria and to discover the regularity of malaria outbreaks in Nanchang City from 1950 to 2015, so as to provide a scientific basis for developing control strategies after the goal of malaria elimination has been achieved. Method Malaria related data, report forms and work summary in Nanchang from 1950 to 2015 were collected and analyzed to indicate malaria distribution characteristics via the descriptive epidemiological methods. Results The total number of malaria cases reported in Nanchang City was 1449878 from 1950 to 2015. The particular years with the three peaks of malaria epidemic from 1950s to 1970s were 1954, 1970 and 1977. The climax of annual mean incidence rate of malaria (6948.75 per 100 thousand) was reached in 1970. Totally 1449739 local recurrence cases were reported between 1950 and 1999. There were 484292 local recurrence cases (accounting for 68.80%, 484292/703911) that were diagnosed in the malaria epidemic seasons, May to August. There were 44931, 25684, 22614 and 5842 cases reported in Nanchang County, Xinjian County, Jinxian County and Qingshanhu District, which ranked the top 4 of epidemic focus areas ( accounting for 90 . 65%, 99071/109293) between 1980 and 1989. The 13245 cases reported between 1972 and 1985 in the three county/districts (Jinxian County, Xihu District and Wanli District), included 8513 cases of male and 4732 cases of female. The 126 cases reported between 2005 and 2015, included 122 imported cases who were mostly returnees after overseas labor output and 57 falciparum malaria cases with a increasing trend year by year. There was no correlation between the seasonal change and the occurrence of malaria. Conclusions The comprehensive prevention and control measures based on eliminating the source of infection can effectively control the epidemic of malaria. It is suggested that the surveillance on imported falciparum malaria cases should be the focus in prevention and control of the disease at the late-stage because the epidemiological characteristics of local malaria cases have died out completely.
