Objective To explore potential predictive biomarkers for preeclampsia by analyzing the expression and characteristics of vascular-related inflammatory proteins in the serum of preeclamptic pregnant women.Methods A case-control study was conducted from Sep 2017 to Sep 2018 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University.Preeclamptic pregnant women and normotensive pregnant controls during the same period were recruited.The concentration of 12 vascular inflammation-related proteins in the patients'serum was determined by multiplex flow cytometry.The vascular-related inflammatory molecules were subjected to differential analysis by non-parametric t-test to obtain preeclampsia-related vascular inflammatory proteins.Finally,high-risk preeclampsia pregnancy serum samples from the biobank were retrieved.Serum concentrations of preeclampsia-related vascular inflammatory proteins were determined,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was conducted for preliminary predictive assessment of preeclampsia.Results This study conducted a quantitative analysis of serum vascular inflammatory proteins in 39 cases of preeclampsia and 43 cases of control pregnant women,detecting 10 vascular inflammatory proteins expressed in maternal serum.Among these,myoglobin and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1)exhibited significant elevation in the serum of preeclamptic pregnant women,while matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)showed a marked decrease.ROC curve analysis revealed that in 96 high-risk early pregnancy women,the area under the curve(AUC)for VCAM-1 reached 0.802,whereas myoglobin and MMP-9 did not significantly predict the occurrence of preeclampsia.Conclusion Preeclampsia patients exhibit abnormal expression of serum inflammatory proteins,among which VCAM-1 may be a potential biological marker for early pregnancy preeclampsia risk prediction.

The clinical data, diagnosis and treatment of a child with Robinow syndrome (RS) caused by the DVL1 gene mutation, who was treated in the Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism, Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in May 2023, were retrospectively analyzed.The male child, 2 years old, presented with 2 years of external genital abnormality.The main clinical features included intrauterine growth retardation, external genital abnormalities, craniofacial anomalies, skeletal malformations and congenital heart diseases.Whole exome sequencing revealed that the patient carried a heterozygous mutation c. 1529delG(p.G510Vfs*139) in exon 14 of the DVL1 gene.Cases of the DVL1 gene mutation have not been documented in Chinese.A review of literature identified 25 (including the case in this report) cases of RS in children attributed to DVL1 gene mutations, revealing common clinical features such as craniofacial anomalies, skeletal malformations, external genital abnormalities, heart diseases, short stature, and hearing impairments.Cognitive abilities are typically unaffected, and reproductive function remains normal.Notably, 19 identified DVL1 gene mutations are clustered within a specific genomic region (c.1496-c.1631), with no discernible genotype-phenotype correlation observed.

The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) protein family is a cluster of highly conserved molecules that play an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Hsp90 and its co-chaperones regulate a variety of pathways and cellular functions, such as cell growth, cell cycle control and apoptosis. Hsp90 is closely associated with the occurrence and development of tumors and other diseases, making it an attractive target for cancer therapeutics. Inhibition of Hsp90 expression can affect multiple oncogenic pathways simultaneously. Most Hsp90 small molecule inhibitors are in clinical trials due to their low efficacy, toxicity or drug resistance, but they have obvious synergistic anti-tumor effect when used with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, tubulin inhibitors or topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors. To address this issue, the design of Hsp90 dual-target inhibitors can improve efficacy and reduce drug resistance, making it an effective tumor treatment strategy. In this paper, the domain and biological function of Hsp90 are briefly introduced, and the design, discovery and structure-activity relationship of Hsp90 dual inhibitors are discussed, in order to provide reference for the discovery of novel Hsp90 dual inhibitors and clinical drug research from the perspective of medicinal chemistry.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of HIV-1 molecular transmission network among HIV/AIDS patients in Zhoushan City, Zhejing Province. Methods: The newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Zhoushan City from 2020 to 2022 were selected. Basic information was collected and whole blood samples were obtained at the initial follow-up. The pol gene sequences of HIV-1 were amplified by RT-PCR and nested-PCR. HIV-1 subtypes were identified by Neighbor-Joining phylogenetic trees. The HIV-1 molecular transmission network was built and analyzed using Cytoscape 3.6.1 software. Results: A total of 222 HIV/AIDS cases were reported in Zhoushan City from 2020 to 2022, 200 whole blood samples were collected, and 152 sequences were obtained successfully, including 122 males (80.26%), 75 cases aged 50 years and above (49.34%), 109 cases with a junior high school education or below (71.71%), and 63 cases with commercial heterosexual contact (41.45%). The main subtypes were CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE, accounting for 45.39% and 21.05%, respectively. When the threshold of genetic distance was set to 1%, 20 molecular clusters were formed in 69 cases, with a clustering rate of 45.39%. Using the molecular network constituted by reported HIV/AIDS cases in 2020 as the baseline network, there were 2 active molecular clusters with ≥5 new cases in 2022, each with 9 cases, characterized mainly by individuals aged 50 or above, with a junior high school education or below, and transmission through commercial heterosexual sex. Conclusions The predominant HIV-1 subtypes among HIV/AIDS cases in Zhoushan City are CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE. Transmission through commercial heterosexual contact among middle-aged and elderly people is a main mode of HIV transmission.

Based on whole genome data, the identification and expression pattern analysis of the Atropa belladonna WRKY transcription factor family were conducted to provide a theoretical foundation for studying the biological functions and mechanisms of these transcription factors. In this study, bioinformatics methods were employed to identify members of the A. belladonna WRKY gene family and to predict their physicochemical properties, conserved motifs, promoter cis-acting elements, and chromosomal localization. Additionally, the expression patterns of the A. belladonna WRKY gene family under the regulation of environmental factors such as light quality and temperature were analyzed. The results revealed a total of 28 AbWRKY transcription factors, randomly distributed across 16 chromosomes, encoding 324-707 amino acids. Most AbWRKY proteins were acidic, unstable, and hydrophilic. Based on multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis, the WRKY gene family members were classified into two subfamilies. Conserved motif and domain analysis indicated that WRKY transcription factors in the same subfamily possessed conserved structural features. Promoter analysis predicted that the A. belladonna WRKY family contained light-responsive elements, hormone-responsive elements, and stress-responsive elements. Collinearity analysis showed that AbWRKY24 plays a crucial role in the expansion of the AbWRKY gene family. Then qRT-PCR results indicated that AbWRKY6, AbWRKY8, AbWRKY14, and AbWRKY24 responded to red light stress, while AbWRKY8, AbWRKY14, and AbWRKY24 responded to yellow light/low-temperature combined stress. AbWRKY6 and AbWRKY8 were significantly expressed in leaves and stems, AbWRKY27 and AbWRKY28 were significantly expressed in fibrous roots, and AbWRKY25 was significantly expressed in flowers. This study is the first to identify and analyze the WRKY gene family in A. belladonna and to examine its expression patterns under light and temperature regulation, laying a foundation for in-depth analysis and functional validation of the molecular mechanisms of A. belladonna WRKY transcription factors in responding to light quality and temperature environmental factors.
