Objective To construct myeloid-specific Spi1 gene knockout mice and analyze their genotypes,so as to provide animal model basis for the study of pathological mechanism of diseases and drug targets.Methods Ac-cording to the principle of CRISPR/Cas9 technology and Cre/LoxP system,sgRNA and Donor vectors were de-signed and constructed.The transcript of Exon 2(Exon 2)was used as the knockout region,and Loxp elements were placed on both sides of Exon 2.Cas9 protein,sgRNA and Donor vector were mixed and microinjected into the fertilized eggs of C57BL/6J mice,the fertilized eggs were transplanted into the uterus of C57BL/6J pregnant female mice,and F0 generation was obtained after 19～20 days.Positive F0 mice were mated with C57BL/6J mice to ob-tain stable F1 Spi1flox/+mice.Spi1flox/+mice of F1 generation were selfed to obtain Spi1flox/flox mice.Spi1flox/flox mated with Lyz2-Cre+mice to obtain Spi1flox/+/Lyz2-Cre+mice,and then mated with Spi1flox/flox,the Spi1flox/flox/Lyz2-Cre+mice were myeloid-specific Spi1 gene knockout(KO)mice.Spi1flox/flox/Lyz2-cre-mice were used as wild-type(WT)mice.DNA of WT and KO mice was extracted,and the genotypes were identified by agarose gel electro-phoresis after PCR amplification.Western blot was used to detect the expression of spleen focus forming virus provi-ral integration oncogene,Spi-1/purine rich box-1(PU.1)in immune cells of WT and KO mice.Results The results of PCR identification showed that the genotype of mice with only 220 bp amplified by flox primer was Spi1flox/flox homozygote,and the genotype of mice with 700 bp amplified by Lyz2-Cre primer was Lyz2-Cre+.Western blot showed that compared with WT group,the protein PU.1 was not expressed in bone marrow-derived macropha-ges(BMDMs)and peritoneal macrophages(PM)in KO group(P<0.01).There was no significant difference of statistics in the expression level of PU.1 in T cells between KO mice and WT mice.The results of PCR and West-ern blot showed that myeloid-specific Spi1 KO mice were successfully constructed.Conclusion The myeloid-spe-cific Spi1 gene KO mice are successfully constructed and identified,which provides animal model basis for further revealing the potential mechanism of PU.1 inimmune regulation.

Objective To breed and identify the T lymphocyte-conditional Spi1 knockout mice for the further in-vestgation of the specific role of Spi1-encoded protein PU.1.Methods The Lck-Cre mice were mated with Spi1flox/flox mice to obtain Lck-Cre×Spi1flox/flox mice(T lymphocyte-specific Spi1 knockout mice),and the genotype was determined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and agarose gel electrophoresis.Magnetic beads were used to sort out the splenic T lymphocytes,and the knockdown efficiency of PU.1 in T cells was detected by Western blot,quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR)and flow cytometry.Results The Lck-Cre×Spi1flox/flox mouse genotype was stably inherited.Compared with Spi1flox/flox mice,the expression level of PU.1 was significantly reduced in splenic T cells of Lck-Cre×Spi1flox/flox mice.Conclusion In this study,the T lymphocyte-specific Spi1 knockout mice was successfully constructed by applying Cre/LoxP system and CRISPR/Cas9 technology,which provided a reliable an-imal model for the subsequent experiments of the specific role of PU.1 in T cell-related diseases.

Objective To construct Csf1r-CreERT2 R26REYFP reporter gene mice and assess the efficacy of Csf1r-CreERT2-mediated enhancement of CSF1R in CD45+cells labeled with yellow fluorescein protein EYFP.Methods Csf1r-CreERT2 mice were crossbred with R26REYFP homozygous mice,and Csf1r-CreERT2R26REYFP mice were identified through PCR and Western Blot analyses.Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate CSF1R tag-efficiency in CD45+cells across different mouse tissues following tamoxifen induction.Results Csf1r-CreERT2 R26REYFP reporter gene mice were acquired.In addition,it was found that Csf1r-CreERT2-mediated EYFP could effectively mark CSF1R in various tissues of mice and CD45+cells in different locations.Compared to the R26REYF P group,the highest labeling efficiency was observed in the brain tissue(P＜0.001),the lowest in the thymus tissue(P＜0.05),and no sig-nificant difference was observed in the spleen tissue.Conclusion Adult Csf1r-CreERT2 mice and R26REYFP mice are effective ways to obtain Csf1r-CreERT2 R26REYFP induced conditional fluorescence mice.Csf1r-CreERT2 can mediate EYFP to effectively trace CSF1R in CD45+cells in different parts of mice.

Surgery is the important treatment for each type of thyroid cancer. Single or multiple parathyroid injuries or blood supply disorders may occur during the operation, resulting in dramatic decline of parathyroid hormone and hypocalcemia after operation, which is common in clinical practice. After discharge, chronic hypocalcemia can cause great physical and psychological pain to patients. Although the residual parathyroid glands can compensate after surgery in some cases, long-term negative calcium balance and postoperative hypocalcemia may cause excessive hyperplasia of the residual parathyroid glands, resulting in parathyroid hyperfunction or even hyperparathyroidism, which can lead to osteoporosis, urinary calculi, metastatic vascular calcification, and systemic abnormal migratory calcium deposits. It’s advisable to enhance the awareness of the cause and harm of the postoperative hypocalcemia, evaluate and diagnose it early, and actively intervene in every stage of before, during and after the operation and long-term follow-up, which can effectively reduce the occurrence and severity of hypocalcemia and improve the postoperative life quality and the prognosis.

Thyroid cancer is the common malignant tumor in the neck, and surgery is the important treatment measure for it. Some patients suffer from hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy, which will seriously affect the patient’s life quality and prognosis. This article reported a case of 42 years old female patient with hypocalcemia for 6 years after total thyroidectomy due to thyroid cancer, who still had frequent hypocalcemia with high dose of oral calcium and active vitamin D supplementation. Long-term and frequent facial and limb numbness, convulsions, epileptic-like seizures and sudden unconsciousness afflicted her due to hypocalcemia. After admission, her symptoms were obviously relieved after one week of adequate calcium supplementation through oral administration or intravenous infusion under close monitoring. Upon discharge she was able to maintain the normal level of blood calcium by decreased dose of oral calcium supplementation alone. Long-term limb numbness, convulsions, low back pain, shoulder pain, walking instability and other symptoms disappeared basically. The epileptic-like seizures did not recur. During six months of follow-up, her blood calcium was still well controlled in normal level.

Objective To investigate the expression of Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4(ACSL4)in liver cancer and its role in regulating ferroptosis and proliferation of liver cancer cells.Methods Clinical samples of liver cancer and adjacent normal liver tissues were examined for malondialdehyde(MDA)contents and for expressions of mRNA and protein expressions of ACSL4 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)using RT-qPCR and Western blotting.Human liver cancer Huh-7 cells were treated with Erastin(a ferroptosis inducer),Fer-1(a ferroptosis inhibitor),or both,and the changes in expression levels of MDA,ACSL4 and PCNA were detected,and the cell proliferation was assessed with plate cloning assay.Results MDA contents were lower and ACSL4 and PCNA expressions were higher significantly in liver cancer tissues than in adjacent liver tissues.In Huh-7 cells,Erastin treatment significantly inhibited mRNA and protein expressions of ACSL4 and PCNA,suppressed cell proliferation,and increased MDA contents.Fer-1 alone did not produce significant effect on cell viability but reversed the effect of Erastin on ACSL4 and PCNA expressions,cell proliferation and MDA contents.Conclusion ACSL4 level is significantly overexpressed in liver cancer.Erastin increases MDA contents and down-regulates ACSL4 expression,thereby promoting ferroptosis and inhibiting proliferation of liver cancer cells,and these effects can be reversed by Fer-1.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of intermittent oral-to-esophageal tube feeding combined with perioral massage in treating dysphagia of children with Pierre Robin Syndrome (PRS). Methods A total of 92 PRS children with mandibular distraction osteogenesis were selected and divided into observation group and control group by stratified randomization, with 46 cases in each group. The control group received continuous nasal tube feeding intervention, while the observation group received intermittent oral-to-esophageal tube feeding combined with perioral massage intervention. The changes in nutritional status[body mass index (BMI), serum hemoglobin (Hb), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB)] before and after 1 month of intervention were compared between the two groups. The clinical indicators (hospital stay, time to start oral feeding, and time to full gastrointestinal feeding) were also compared 1 month after the intervention. The swallowing conditions and incidence of complications were recorded in both groups. Results After 1 month of intervention, BMI, Hb, TP and ALB in both groups significantly increased, and the observation group had significant higher values in BMI of (21.58±1.26) kg/m², Hb of (118.76±10.36) g/L, TP of (55.28±6.74) g/L, ALB of (33.46±4.37) g/L compared to BMI of (20.30±1.22) kg/m², Hb of (112.74±9.46) g/L, TP of (51.68±6.33) g/L and ALB of (30.59±4.68) g/L in the control group (P < 0.05). In the observation group, the feeding time was (32.26±4.43) minutes, hospital stay was (21.48±3.11) days, time to start oral feeding was (14.26±3.16) days, and time to full gastrointestinal feeding was (16.79±2.32) days, which were significantly shorter than (36.79±4.65) min, (24.39±3.31) days, (17.25±3.24) days, and (20.48±3.29) days respectively in the control group (P < 0.05); the average residual feeding volume was (10.26±2.18) mL and the number of cases with milk flow was 8 (17.39%) in the observation group, which were significantly less than (12.79±2.31) mL and 17 (36.95%) in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Intermittent oral-to-esophageal tube feeding combined with perioral massage can effectively improve swallowing difficulty in children with PRS and shorten the hospital stay.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy difference between femoral neck system and cannulated compression screw in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients.Methods:Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases were searched. All literature on the treatment of femoral neck fractures using the femoral neck system (FNS) or cannulated compression screw (CCS). RevMan 5.4.1 software was used to analyze data.Results:Twelve high-quality cohort studies were included, including 787 patients treated surgically for femoral neck fractures, of whom 369 were treated with FNS and 418 with CCS. Results of meta-analysis showed that FNS had shorter operative time than CCS for femoral neck fracture [ WMD=-8.09, 95% CI (-14.12, -2.06), P=0.009]. FNS had less intraoperative blood loss [ WMD=6.63, 95% CI (1.42, 11.83), P=0.010], Partial weight-bearing time of FNS was earlier postoperative [ WMD=-2.11, 95% CI (-3.00, -1.22), P<0.001], while full weight-bearing time was also earlier postoperative [ WMD=1.01, 95% CI (1.59, 0.43), P<0.001), The postoperative fracture healing time of FNS was shorter [ SMD=0.67, 95% CI (1.04, 0.30), P<0.001]. The Harris score of FNS at the last follow-up was higher [ WMD=4.67, 95% CI (3.26, 6.08), P<0.001]. The number of fluoroscopy during FNS was less [ WMD=-9.05, 95% CI (-10.92, -7.18), P<0.001]. The rate of severe femoral neck shortening after FNS was lower [ RR=0.36, 95% CI (0.19, 0.70), P=0.002]. The incidence of postoperative complications after FNS, including urinary tract infection, venous thromboembolism, bone nonunion, screw loosening, femoral head avascular necrosis, was lower [ RR=0.38, 95% CI (0.27, 0.53), P<0.001]. There was no difference in postoperative hospital stay between FNS and CCS [ WMD=0.01, 95% CI (-0.36, 0.39), P=0.950]. There was no difference in fracture reduction quality (Garden I) [ RR=1.04, 95% CI (0.87, 1.24), P=0.660]. There was no difference in fracture reduction quality (Garden II) [ RR=0.91, 95% CI (0.59, 1.39), P=0.650]. There was no difference in postoperative moderate femoral neck shortening [ RR=0.85, 95% CI (0.58, 1.26), P=0.430]. Conclusion:Compared with cannulated compression screw, femoral neck system had shorter operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, earlier postoperative part load or full load time, shorter fracture healing time higher Harris score at the last follow-up, less number of intraoperative fluoroscopy, and lower rate of severe femoral neck shortening. Besides, FNS had a lower incidence of postoperative complications including urinary tract infection, venous thromboembolism, bone nonunion, screw loosening, and avascular necrosis of femoral head than CCS.
