Objective To generate and identify the Itgbl1(integrin beta-like)promoter-driven Cre knock-in mouse line.Methods Itgbll-Cre knock-in mice were generated using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9(Cas9)gene editing.The Itgbl1-Cre mice were crossed with the Cre reporter ROSALSL-tdTomato)mice to detect the expression profile of Cre activity.The tdTomato expression pattern across tissues and cell-specific markers were used to identify the cell types of Itgbl1-expressing cells and their progeny.Results and Conclusion tdTomato was specifically expressed in mucous acinar cells of the sublingual gland,pancreatic islet cells,and gastric endocrine cells.In addition,tdTomato expression was also found in some of the neurons of the retina and brain,as well as in a few cells in the serosal layer of the intestine,articular cartilage,periosteum,and bone marrow.The first Itgbl1-Cre recombinase transgenic mouse line was established,which can specifically label the mucous acinar cells of the sublingual gland.

Periodontitis is a complex chronic inflammatory disease. The invasion of pathogens induces the inflammatory microenvironment in periodontitis. Cell behavior changes in response to changes in the microenvironment, which in turn alters the local inflammatory microenvironment of the periodontium through factors secreted by cells. It has been confirmed that periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are vital in the development of periodontal disease. Moreover, PDLSCs are the most effective cell type to be used for periodontium regeneration. This review focuses on changes in PDLSCs, their basic biological behavior, osteogenic differentiation, and drug effects caused by the inflammatory microenvironment, to provide a better understanding of the influence of these factors on periodontal tissue homeostasis. In addition, we discuss the underlying mechanism in detail behind the reciprocal responses of PDLSCs that affect the microenvironment.

The occupational medical examination (OME) for workers exposed to amino and nitro compounds of benzene, phosgene, monomethylamine, organic fluorine and dimethyl sulfate has been adjusted and made mandatory, with corresponding assessments required upon leaving the job. The special occupational health surveillance for workers exposed to mycobacterium tuberculosis and hepatitis virus is removed. The OME conclusion of reexamination is removed, and standardize recheck/additional inspection requirements. The optional items in OME performed before, during and after leaving post are removed, but the optional items in emergency medical examination are retained. Additional OME items are added. The Guideline for OME Summary Reports is added as informative appendix, and so on. The revised GBZ 188 Technical Specification for Occupational Health Surveillance is more scientific and practical.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and liver function of the population with occupational exposure to hepatotoxicants. Methods A total of 17 093 workers with occupational hepatotoxicants exposure who underwent occupational medical examination during their employment in a occupational medical examination institution of Shanghai in 2021 were selected as the research subjects by judgement sampling method. Occupational medical examination data were collected, and the prevalence of abnormal liver function and fatty liver were analyzed. The association between hepatotoxicants exposure and abnormal liver function were analyzed. Results The median and the 0th-100th percentiles of the duration of exposure to hepatotoxicants was 6.5(1.0-42.0) years. The prevalence of fatty liver was 48.4% and the incidence of abnormal liver function was 23.7%. Among the workers with fatty liver, the prevalence of abnormal liver function was higher in workers exposed to metals, metalloids and their compounds than in unexposed workers (33.9% vs 30.0%, P<0.01). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the risk of abnormal liver function increased with the number of different hepatotoxicants mixed exposures (all P<0.01), after correcting for confounding factors including gender, age, years of exposure, marital status, drinking, hypertension, fatty liver and blood sugar. Conclusion Exposure to hepatotoxicants is a risk factor for abnormal liver function. The more diverse types of hepatotoxicants an individual is exposed to, the stronger the association with this risk.

OBJECTIVE To observe whether mitochondria can be transferred from mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)to irradiated cells by establishing a mitochondrial fluorescent reporting system.METHODS The lentiviral vector pSIN-EF1α-COX8A-DsRed2(named COX8A-DsRed2)that might guide the expres-sion of red fluorescence protein in the membrane of mitochondria was constructed.A lentivirus(named Lv-COX8A-DsRed2)was prepared in 293T cell line.Dental pulp stem cells(DPSCs)(named DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2)was infected with Lv-COX8A-DsRed2.The intracellular expression of the red fluores-cence protein in DPSC was observed under fluorescence microcopy.The mitochondrial localization of the expressed red fluorescent probe in DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2 was confirmed according to TOMM20 immunostaining and MitoTracker Green staining results,which could specifically label mitochondria.The IEC-6 cells that received 10 Gy X-ray radiation were used as an injured cell model.The co-culture system was established by supplementing DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2 into the culture plate with the irradi-ated IEC-6 labelled by CFSE for 24 h.RESULTS The imaging results of fluorescent microcopy obser-vation showed that DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2 expressed the mitochondrial fluorescent reporting system,which was co-located with TOMM20 protein and Mito Tracker Green.The imaging results of confocal fluorescence microcopy showed that the mitochondria with red fluorescent protein were transferred from DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2 to the irradiated IEC-6 cells,suggesting that the established mitochondrial fluorescent reporting system could indicate mitochondrial transfer from donor cells to injured ones.CONCLUSION DPSC-COX8A-DsRed2 stably expressing the mitochondrial fluorescent reporting system is established,which can be used to track mitochondrial transfer.

Objective:Anatomical study of the cross-donor flap pedicled with the peroneal artery and the discussion of the effect of clinical application, so as to describe a new method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.Methods:From June 2016 to August 2019, 12 specimens of adult lower limbs were studied. The popliteal arteries were perfused with perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate-lead oxide and red perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate. The origin, number, outer diameter, course and distribution of perforating branches of the peroneal artery were anatomically observed. The source, distribution and anastomosis of the skin nutrient vessels in the posterolateral area of the calf were also studied. Relationship of the blood supply between the peroneal arteries and veins and the nutritional vessels of the sural nerve were observed. In 9 patients, the peroneal artery and vein were designed as the pedicle of cross-donor flap in the repair of large soft tissue defects of foot and ankle. The patients were entered follow-up through outpatient visits and telephone interviews.Results:Among the 12 adult specimens of lower limbs, there were 65 perforating branches from the peroneal artery, 4-7 branches on each side, with an average of (5.41±1.00) branches. The diameter of the penetrating deep fascia was(1.07±0.36) mm. The perforator branches were mostly distributed in 3 sections of 4.0-11.0 cm, 16.0-21.0 cm and 24.0-27.0 cm away from the lateral malleolus, accounting for 48%, 24% and 17% of the total number of perforators, respectively. The outer diameters of the perforator vessels were (0.92±0.26)(0.56-1.68) mm, (1.32±0.38)(0.60-2.14) mm, and (0.98±0.28)(0.62-1.36) mm. The length of the pedicle of the perforator vessels were (3.91±0.96)(2.15-5.78) cm, (5.34±0.50)(4.01-5.85) cm, and (3.31±1.15)(2.16-5.66) cm. The perforating branches in the 3 sections appeared constantly. The diameter of the vessels was≥0.5 mm with an average length of at(4.19±1.16)(2.15-5.85) cm. The vascular network of the flap in the posterolateral area of the calf was mainly composed of subdermal vascular network and deep fascial vascular network. The deep fascia vascular network in the posterolateral area of the calf had 3 obvious longitudinal chains, including the medial sural neurotrophic vascular chain, the small saphenous vein-sural nerve communicating branch vascular chain and the lateral sural neurotrophic vascular chain, which took the nutrient blood supply from the perforating branches of the peroneal artery also formed a longitudinal and transverse anastomosis between the perforating branches of the peroneal artery. In the clinical trials performed on 9 patients, all soft tissue defects of foot and ankle were repaired. The composite tissue flap survived without infection or necrosis. The follow-up was lasted for 12 months to 3 years. The postoperative function and the donor site appearance were good and the patients walked normally. According to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Association(AOFAS) foot scoring standard, the function of affected feet were evaluated. Five patients were excellent and 4 were good.Conclusion:The cross-donor flaps pedicled with peroneal arteries and veins has sufficient blood supply and a large area. It provides a method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a child with succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples of the proband and his parents were collected and subjected to Sanger sequencing. High-throughput sequencing was used to verify the gene variants. Bioinformatic software was used to analyze the pathogenicity of the variant sites. RESULTS: Sanger sequencing showed that the proband carried a homozygous c.1529C>T (p.S510F) variant of the ALDH5A1 gene, for which his mother was a carrier. The same variant was not detected in his father. However, high-throughput sequencing revealed that the child and his father both had a deletion of ALDH5A1 gene fragment (chr6: 24 403 265-24 566 986). CONCLUSION The c.1529C>T variant of the ALDH5A1 gene and deletion of ALDH5A1 gene fragment probably underlay the disease in the child. High-throughput sequencing can detect site variation as well as deletion of gene fragment, which has enabled genetic diagnosis and counseling for the family.
