Objective:To analyze the incidence of abnormal hemoglobin(Hb)in neonates in Guangzhou area,as well as the results of quantitative analysis of Hb in neonatal umbilical cord blood and genetic diagnosis of thalassemia in neonates with abnormal Hb;And to explore the hematological phenotypes and clinical characteristics of neonates with abnormal Hb and their parents,providing a reference for eugenics and childcare.Methods:650 neonates born at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital who underwent Hb electrophoresis were included in this study.The results of routine blood test of umbilical cord blood,Hb electrophoresis and α-,β-thalassemia gene detection of the neonates were collected.The genotype distribution of thalassemia in the neonates was analyzed.Additionally,the abnormal Hb content of α and β variants was studied.Furthermore,the differences in hematological parameters between abnormal Hb neonates and normal neonates and α-thalassemia neonates,as well as between the parents of abnormal Hb neonates and normal adults were compared.Results:Among the 650 neonates,332(51.08％)were diagnosed with thalassemia,including 235 cases of α-thalassemia(36.15％),79 cases of β-thalassemia(12.15％),and 18 cases of compound α β-thalassemia(2.77％).Among all the α-thalassemia genotypes,the most prevalent one was--SEA/α α(48.94％),followed by-α3.7/α α(20.00％),-α42/α α(11.06％),and α α CS/α α(8.94％).The four most common genotypes of β-thalassemia were β CD41-42(32.91％),βIVS-Ⅱ-654(26.58％),β-28(21.52％),and β E(10.13％),respectively.275 cases of abnormal bands were found in Hb electrophoresis of umbilical cord blood,with a detection rate of 42.31％.The abnormal Hb content ofα-variant in the neonates was significantly higher than that of β-variant(P＜0.001).The levels of Hb,MCV,MCH,Hb A,and Hb F in neonates with abnormal Hb were lower than those in normal neonates,while the RDW-CV was higher than that in normal neonates,with statistical significantce(P＜0.05).The levels of RBC and Hb A in neonates with abnormal Hb were lower than those in neonates with α-thalassemia,while the level of MCH was higher than that in neonats withα-thalassemia,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The levels of Hb,MCV,MCH,and Hb A in parents of neonates with abnormal Hb were lower than those in normal adults,while the RDW-CV was higher than that in normal adults,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The abnormal Hb content of α-variant in the neonates is significantly higher than that of β-variant in the neonates in Guangzhou,which can help to presume whether it isα chain or β chain based on the abnormal Hb content,providing a reference for globin gene sequencing.Meanwhile,analysis of various hematological screening-related indicators in neonates in the early stage is beneficial for early warning of the occurrence of abnormal Hb combined with thalassemia,reducing missed diagnoses to a certain extent.

Herpes simplex keratitis(HSK), caused by the infection of herpes simplex virus type Ⅰ(HSV-1)in cornea, is a global blinding corneal disease. After the primary infection in ocular surface, HSV-1 is transported into trigeminal ganglion and establishes the life-lasting latency, and it results in recurrent keratopathy. In the process of studying the latent mechanism of HSV, it has been gradually recognized that both the virus itself and the host response regulate the latent process of HSV. In recent years, a large number of research results have been obtained on the molecular mechanisms of invasion, immunity, latency and recurrence of neurotropic viruses, which provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of HSK. In the present review, the recent progress of HSV latency mechanism in trigeminal ganglion after the primary infection in corneal surface was introduced, and the unsolved basic and clinical problems in HSK were discussed.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of Gegen Qinliantang（GGQL） on the proliferation and apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells as well as on the expression of cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP）， G protein-coupled receptor 119 （GPR119）， and glucagon-like peptide-1 （GLP-1）， so as to explore its potential hypoglycemic mechanism. MethodTwenty-five Wistar rats were gavaged with GGQL at the dose of 23 g·kg^-1 crude drug， twice a day， which meant that 6 mL was administered into each rat per day for preparing the GGQL-containing serum. After seven consecutive times of administration， the intestinal epithelial L （NCI-H716） cells were cultured with different concentrations （1%， 2.5%， 5%， 7.5%， and 10%） of GGQL. The cell proliferation was evaluated using cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） and the apoptosis by flow cytometry. The GLP-1 and cAMP contents in cell supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The mRNA and protein GLP-1 and GPR119 levels were assayed by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot， respectively. ResultCompared with the control group， GGQL significantly reduced the proliferation of NCI-H716 cells（P<0.05）. As the GGQL concentration increased， its inhibitory effect became more obvious. GGQL at each concentration significantly promoted the apoptosis of NCI-H716 cells （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， GGQL significantly up-regulated the expression of cAMP， GLP-1， and GPR119 （P<0.05）. The results showed that the effect of GGQL was positively correlated with its concentration， and 10% GGQL exhibited the best effect. ConclusionGGQL effectively inhibits the proliferation of NCI-H716 cells and promotes their apoptosis， and it may promote the secretion of GLP-1 by up-regulating the expression of cAMP and GPR119.
