BACKGROUND:Patellar tendonitis can present as tendon degeneration that fails to heal due to tissue overload and incomplete recovery.Patellar tendonitis is a predisposition to high jumping and its pathogenesis has not been clearly defined.OBJECTIVE:To explore the stress-strain relationship of patellar tendon in the take-off technique of high jump through the finite element model with accurate human anatomical structure,so as to provide ideas for the prevention and rehabilitation of patellar tendinitis.METHODS:Based on the CT and MRI imaging data of the lower extremity(including the knee and ankle)of one subject(22 years old,183 cm height,70 kg body mass),a three-dimensional finite element model of the lower extremity was reconstructed using medical imaging software,reverse engineering software and modeling software.The plantar pressure of the take-off leg was collected in eight subjects by gait testing system,and the technical action of high jump take-off was collected by motion capture system.The captured data were imported into human sports biomechanics software for analysis,and kinematic and kinetic data were obtained as the boundary conditions of finite element model for finite element simulation analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The force borne by the patellar tendon reached 3.29 times of its own body mass when the subjects took off.In the take-off stage,the peak values of normal equivalent stress,strain and shear stress of the patellar tendon were 127.76 MPa,0.81 and 37.69 MPa,respectively,which were in the nonlinear region of the stress-strain curve,and the peak values were distributed in the proximal and posterior parts of patellar tendon.To conclude,the high patellar tendon force,strain and shear stress caused by the load of 3.29 times its own body mass during take-off are related to the induction of patellar tendinitis.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the most established and versatile mammalian expression system for the large-scale production of recombinant therapeutic proteins, owing to their genetic stability, adaptability to serum-free suspension culture, and ability to perform human-like post-translational modifications. More than 70% of biologics approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rely on CHO-based production platforms, underscoring their central role in modern biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Despite these advantages, CHO systems continue to face three persistent bottlenecks that limit their potential for high-yield, reproducible, and cost-efficient production: excessive metabolic burden during high-density culture, heterogeneity of glycosylation patterns, and progressive loss of long-term expression stability. This review provides an integrated analysis of recent advances addressing these challenges and proposes a forward-looking framework for constructing intelligent and sustainable CHO cell factories. In terms of metabolic regulation, excessive lactate and ammonia accumulation disrupts energy balance and reduces recombinant protein synthesis efficiency. Optimization of culture parameters such as temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, osmolarity, and glucose feeding can effectively alleviate metabolic stress, while supplementation with modulators including sodium butyrate, baicalein, and S-adenosylmethionine promotes specific productivity (qP) by modulating apoptosis and chromatin structure. Furthermore, genetic engineering strategies—such as overexpression of MPC1/2, HSP27, and SIRT6 or knockout of Bax, Apaf1, and IGF-1R—have demonstrated significant improvements in cell viability and product yield. The combination of multi-omics metabolic modeling with artificial intelligence (AI)-based prediction offers new opportunities for building self-regulating CHO systems capable of dynamic adaptation to environmental stress. Regarding glycosylation uniformity, which determines therapeutic efficacy and immunogenicity, gene editing-based glycoengineering (e.g., FUT8 knockdown or ST6Gal1 overexpression) has enabled the humanization of CHO glycan profiles, minimizing non-human sugar residues and enhancing drug stability. Process-level strategies such as galactose or manganese co-feeding and fine control of temperature or osmolarity further allow rational regulation of glycosyltransferase activity. Additionally, in vitro chemoenzymatic remodeling provides a complementary route to construct human-type glycans with defined structures, though industrial applications remain constrained by cost and scalability. The integration of model-driven process design and AI feedback control is expected to enable real-time prediction and correction of glycosylation deviations, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency in continuous biomanufacturing. Long-term expression stability, another critical challenge, is often impaired by promoter silencing, chromatin condensation, and random genomic integration. Molecular optimization—such as the use of improved promoters (CMV, EF-1α, or CHO endogenous promoters), Kozak and signal peptide refinement, and incorporation of chromatin-opening elements (UCOE, MAR, STAR)—helps maintain durable transcriptional activity, while site-specific integration systems including Cre/loxP, Flp/FRT, φC31, and CRISPR/Cas9 can enable single-copy, position-independent gene insertion at genomic safe-harbor loci, ensuring stable, predictable expression. Collectively, this review highlights a paradigm shift in CHO system optimization driven by the convergence of genome editing, synthetic biology, and artificial intelligence. The transition from empirical optimization to rational, data-driven design will facilitate the development of programmable CHO platforms capable of autonomous regulation of metabolic flux, glycosylation fidelity, and transcriptional activity. Such intelligent cell factories are expected to accelerate the transformation from laboratory-scale research to industrial-scale, high-consistency, and economically sustainable biopharmaceutical manufacturing, thereby supporting the next generation of efficient and customizable biologics manufacturing.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20％to 0.91％,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100％compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.

Objective:To construct the Primary Health Development Index(PHDI)and measure the performance of primary health care development in China.Methods:The PHDI was established through expert consultation.The indicator weights were determined using a comprehensive weighting method.Spatial autocorrelation and regional disparities in PHDI were analyzed using Moran's I and Theil indices.Results:(1)The PHDI framework comprises three dimensions—public accountability,health resources,and integrated services—covering 14 indicators.(2)The PHDI exhibited sustained growth,increasing from 70.46 in 2018 to 83.02 in 2022,with an average annual growth rate of 4.19%.(3)Spatial clustering of PHDI was observed,where provinces with high(low)scores neighbored provinces with similarly high(low)scores,though this positive spatial correlation gradually weakened.(4)Regional disparities in primary health care development showed continuous narrowing,with intra-regional differences dominating overall disparities.Intra-regional variations exhibited as"Eastern＞Western＞Central".Conclusions and suggestions:China's primary health care system has made rapid progress,with a growing trend toward more equitable access.However,disparities within regions persist.It is recommended to routinize and institutionalize the monitoring and evaluation of primary health care development indicators,enhance evidence-based policy implementation,strengthen inter-provincial collaboration within regions,and promote coordinated resource allocation to support balanced development.
