As China has become the second largest market for medical devices in the world,the domestic medical device industry has been growing.As an important part of preclinical evaluation of medical devices,large animal research directly affects the research and application of medical devices.Large animals are widely used in the evaluation of safety and feasibility of medical devices because they are closer to humans in terms of body size,anatomical structure and physiological functions.In large animal experimental research,the selection of suitable experimental animals and the establishment of suitable animal disease models are the basis for ensuring the smooth progress of experiments.In this paper,the selection of experimental animals and the establishment of disease models in medical device large animal experimental research are systematically sorted out,and the existing problems and deficiencies are pointed out.

T-cell inhibitory receptors(IR)are involved in the composing of co-inhibitory signaling pathways between T cells and immune cells,and transmit immunosuppressive signals to limit immune effects of T cells such as activation and proliferation.Ab-normal co-inhibitory signals may destroy the peripheral immune tolerance of the body,leading to hyperresponsiveness of various organ-specific autoimmunity.Rheumatoid arthritis(RA)is a complex systemic disease in which there is an immune disorder centered on T cells.In this process,the abnormal expression and distribution of T-cell IR are fully involved in the imbalance of T-cell subsets and pathological immune responses,affecting the development and progression of the disease.Targeting T-cell IR and its ligands and thus strengthening the co-inhibitory signaling pathway mediated by them has been studied for suppressing immune responses and maintain-ing immune tolerance,but their potential for clinical application in RA remains to be explored.In the present,we review the advances of T-cell IR involved in the immunopathology of RA,and discusses the therapeutic prospects of targeting these receptors.

Objective:To discuss the regulatory effect of berberine(BBR)on fatty acids in the human glioma T98G cells and its effect on the cell proliferation,migration,and invasion,and to clarify its potential mechanism.Methods:The T98G cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into control group and different concentrations(25,50,and 100 mg·L-1)of BBR groups.Cell wound healing assay was used to detect the migration rates of the cells in various groups;Transwell chamber assay was used to detect the invasion rates of the cells in various groups.The T98G cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into control group and 100 mg·L-1 BBR group,and Mass spectrometry was used to detect the fatty acid contents in the cells in two groups.The T98G cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into control group and different concentrations(50,100,and 150 mg·L-1)of BBR groups;Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K),phosphorylated PI3K(p-PI3K),protein kinase B(AKT),phosphorylated AKT(p-AKT),sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1(SREBP-1),and fatty acid synthase(FASN)in the cells in various groups.The expression of FASN was suppressed by gene silencing technology,and the T98G cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into control group,shFASN1 group,and shFASN2 group.Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of FASN protein in the cells in various groups;clone formation assay was used to detect the clone formation of the cells in various groups;cell wound healing assay was used to detect the migration rates of the cells in various groups.Results:Compared with control group,the migration rates and invasion rates of the cells in different concentrations of BBR groups were decreased in a concentration-dependent manner(P<0.01),and the fatty acid content in the cells in 100 mg·L-1 BBR group was significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with control group,the expression levels of p-PI3K,p-AKT,SREBP-1,and FASN proteins in the cells in 150 mg·L-1 BBR group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the expression level of SREBP-1 protein in the cells in 100 and 150 mg·L-1 BBR groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01).After suppression of FASN expression,compared with control group,the expression levels of FASN protein in the cells in shFASN1 and shFASN2 groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the expression level of FASN protein in the cells in shFASN2 group was lower than that in shFASN1 group(P<0.05);compared with control group,the numbers of clone formation and migration rates of the cells in shFASN1 and shFASN2 groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the migration rate of the cells in shFASN2 group was significantly lower than that in shFASN1 group(P<0.05).Conclusion:BBR interferes with fatty acid synthesis in the glioma T98G cells by reducing the expression of the PI3K/AKT/SREBP-1/FASN pathway related proteins,and decrease their migration and invasion capabilities.

Objective:To explore the impact of clinical features, serological indicators, and pulmonary function test (PFT) on the prognosis of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD).Methods:Clinical data of RA-ILD patients who were diagnosed by HRCT and were followed up in Changhai Hospital or Yancheng First People's Hospital from 2011 to 2021 were collected Respiratory functional impairment of the patients was evaluated according to the changes of HRCT score and PFT, and the patients were divided into progressive group and stable group. COX survival analysis and ROC curve were used to determine the factors related to the progression of RA-ILD.Results:Finally 98 RA-ILD patients were included. The mean age of ILD onset was (62.9±12.1) years old, the median course of RA was 7.0 (1.0, 15.3)years, and the median follow-up time was 36.5 months (14.0, 79.5). There were 49 cases in the progressive group, and the clinical characteristics and laboratory tests of the two groups were compared. The results showed that: progressive time [(23(8.5,43.0)months vs 63(32.5,90.9) months, Z=-4.55, P=0.001)], HRCT score [(115(109,135) vs 111(105,116), Z=-2.70, P=0.007)], forced vital capacity(FVC) predicted [(70.1±15.7)% vs (80.8±19.7)%, t=2.12, P=0.039)], diffusing capacity of the lungs for CO(DLCO) predicted [(57.5±16.3)% vs (83.4±18.8)%, t=4.87, P=0.001)], male [(44.9% vs 18.4%, χ2=7.97, P=0.005)], UIP pattern [(36(73.5%) vs 9(18.4%), χ2=29.96, P<0.001)], RF>200 U/ml[(21(65.6%) vs 18(41.9%), χ2=4.15, P=0.042)], anti-CCP>75 U/ml [(42(91.3%) vs 35(71.4%), χ2=6.10, P=0.013], all had significantly different between the two groups. In multivariate analyses, UIP[ HR(95% CI)=3.25(1.62,6.50), P<0.001], anti-CCP antibody >75 U/ ml[ HR(95% CI)=3.85 (1.20,12.33), P=0.023] and smoking [ HR (95% CI): 5.74(1.10, 30.13), P=0.039] were significantly correlated with the progression of pulmonary fibrosis in RA-ILD patients. PFT was performed in only 44 patients with RA-ILD. The univariate analyses and ROC curve suggested that DLCO predicted [ HR (95% CI)=1.04 (1.02,1.06), P<0.001] was a significant risk factor for the progression of RA-ILD, and the area under curve (AUC) of DLCO was 0.845 [95% CI=(0.729,0.961)]. Conclusion:UIP pattern, high titer of anti-CCP antibody, smoking, and reduced DLCO predicted % may be potential predictors for poor prognosis of RA-ILD patients.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and safety of nasojejunal tube placement in children by gastroscopic drafting method.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of children with nasojejunal tube placement from January 2016 to December 2021 in our hospital, and compared the operation time, successful rate and complications of nasojejunal tube placement in the gastroscopic wire drawing method retraction group(observation group)and the gastroscopic foreign body clamp placement method placement group(control group).Results:All of the 167 cases, 65 cases were in observation group and 102 cases in control group.There were no significant differences in sex and age between two groups( P>0.05). The operation time was(6.7±0.8)min in observation group and(8.2±1.3)min in control group, and the difference was statistically significant( t=8.312, P<0.001). The successful rate was 100% in observation group and 96% in control group.One child in control group complicated with the mucosal erosion and bleeding in the duodenal bulb, while the observation group with no erosion, bleeding, perforation, and other complications. Conclusion:The gastroscopic wire drawing method of nasojejunal tube placement has a shorter operation time, higher successful rates, and lower complication rates, which is significantly superior to the gastroscopic foreign body clamp placement method.
