Objective:To investigate the effects of wza gene deletion in Klebsiella pneumoniae on capsule formation ability and bacteriophage sensitivity. Methods:The wza deletion mutant strain was constructed through a temperature-sensitive plasmid-mediated homologous recombination. The growth curves of W14 and Δ wza were detected by measuring the optical density OD 600. In order to analyze the effect of gene wza on bacterial capsule formation, wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain were detected by transmission electron microscope, and their capsule contents were measured by quantifying the uronic acid contents. The plaque assay was used to detect bacterial sensitivity to bacteriophage in wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain. The t test was used to compare whether there were differences in the contents of uronic acid in the capsules of wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strain. Results:The PCR results revealed that the Δ wza mutant strain was successfully constructed. Compared with wild-type strain W14, the growth curves of Δ wza on the solid plates demonstrated a slightly slower growth. However, no difference in growth was observed among wild-type strain W14 and Δ wza mutant strains in LB broth. The transmission electron microscope results showed that wza gene deletion resulted in the loss of capsule in bacteria. The uronic acid content assay suggested that the capsule content was significantly decreased in Δ wza mutant strain (45.963±2.795) μg/ml compared with wild-type strain W14 (138.800±5.201) μg/ml. There was a statistical difference between the two groups ( t=27.233, P<0.001). The plaque assay indicated that bacteria lost its sensitivity to bacteriophage when gene wza was deleted. Conclusion:Deletion of the wza gene impairs bacterial capsule formation ability and can affect bacterial sensitivity to bacteriophage phiW14.

Objective:To express and purify the phage depolymerase from hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv Kp) serotype K1 and validate its function. Methods:Phage that infected serotype K1-type hv Kp was isolated from hospital sewage. The biology and morphology of the phage were determined by plaque assay and transmission electron microscopy. The whole genome of the phage was sequenced by the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. The presence of depolymerase was determined by observing the plaque halo. Bioinformatic analysis and prokaryotic protein expression system were further used to predict and identify phage depolymerase. The depolymerase gene fragment was obtained by PCR and cloned into the pET28a expression vector, and the expression and purification of the depolymerase were completed in strain BL21. The depolymerase activities on the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolates were detected by plaque assay and low-speed centrifugation assay. Results:A lytic phage (phiA2) that infected serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolate was isolated from hospital sewage. It was typical of the Caudovirales order and Autographiviridae family, and its whole genome was 43 526 bp in length and contained 51 coding domain sequences. The phage phiA2-derived depolymerase phiA2-dep was predicted, expressed and purified. The plaque assay and low-speed centrifugation assay indicated that the depolymerase phiA2-dep had good lytic activity on the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp clinical isolates. Conclusion:Depolymerase phiA2-dep can specifically degrade the capsular polysaccharide of serotype K1-type hv Kp, which has potential application value in treating bacterial infection.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of high-dose non-T-cell depleted peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) used as grafts in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with reduced intensity conditioning (RIC-haplo-HSCT) in the treatment of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).Methods:The clinical data of AML or MDS 28 patients aged ≥50 years who underwent RIC-haplo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2014 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received high-dose non-T-cell depleted PBSC as grafts. Anti-CD25 monoclonal antibody and glucocorticoid were added as intensive graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis.Results:All patients achieved hematopoietic reconstruction. The accumulative incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ acute GVHD within 100 d was 22.5% (95% CI 5.1%-39.9%) and 8.2% (95% CI 0-19.2%), respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was 26.8% (95% CI 7.8%-45.8%), and the incidence of extensive chronic GVHD was 5.9% (95% CI 0-17.1%). The median follow-up time was 35.5 (2-83) months. The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse and non-relapse mortality was 16.7% (95% CI 2.0%-31.9%) and 12.2% (95% CI 0-25.2%), respectively. The 3-year disease-free survival and overall survival rates were 73.3% (95% CI 56.2%-90.4%) and 79.1% (95% CI 62.2%-96.0%), respectively. Conclusions:High-dose non-T-cell depleted PBSC used as grafts for RIC-haplo-HSCT can achieve good clinical efficacy in elderly patients with AML/MDS.

Objective To investigate the values of nucleoprotein transformation in sperm for predicting recurrent abortion.Methods A total of 521 infertile couples with complete test indicators on fertility were selected from the reproductive medical clinic of our hospital from 2019 to 2022,among which the ages of the male were from 23 to 56 years old.The following factors causing recurrent abortion were excluded,including the age of woman,body mass index,metabolic disease,antiphospholipid syndrome,uterine and accessory abnormalities,history of caesarean section and intrauterine myoma/cervical conectomy,peripheral blood chromosome abnormalities of both the couple,and adverse life history,such as smoking/alcohol abuse.According to the abortion situation,they were divided into the recurrent abortion group(≥two spontaneous abortions),one spontaneous abortion group and no abortion group.Tukey's multiple comparison was performed to compare the differences of nucleoprotein transformation of sperm in each group by using GraphPad6.0 sta-tistical software.The Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between nucleoprotein transformation and recurrent abortion.The predictive values of nucleoprotein transformation in recurrent abortion were analyzed by the parameters of sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,Youden index and odd ratio.Results The percentages of abnormal nucleoprotein transformation in recurrent abortion group[(33.31±13.83)％]were significantly higher than those in non-abortion group[(26.85± 15.38)％]and the one abortion group[(28.20±12.50)％,P＜0.05].Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between abnormal nucleoprotein transformation and recurrent abortion.The sensitivity and specificity of nucleoprote-in transformation for predicting recurrent abortion were 45.24％and 73.64％,respectively.All of the data of positive predictive value(15.70％),negative predictive value(92.53％),Youden index(18.88％)and odd ratio(2.31)of nucleoprotein transformation in predicting recurrent abortion were higher than those of high DNA stainability(10.64％,90.31％,1.05％and 1.11).Conclusion In the spouses of patients with recurrent abortion,the immaturity of sperm nuclear protein is significantly increased and significantly posi-tively correlated with recurrent abortion.The abnormal nucleoprotein transformation of sperm may be the important factor of recurrent a-bortion in males,and it has high predictive value for recurrent spontaneous abortion in clinical practice.
