Objective: To construct gene recombinant expression plasmids of human anti-P antibody with IgG1 and kappa chain based on the human hybridoma cell line. Methods: Starting from the specific RT-PCR products encoding the variable regions of the IgH chain and IgL chain of the anti-P monoclonal cell line, appropriate restriction enzyme digestion sites were introduced at both ends of the VH and VL fragments through nested PCR. The plasmids carrying the antibody constant region and the nested PCR products of VH and VL were ligated by the action of T4 ligase and subsequently transferred into competent E. coli DH5ɑ, and positive clones were selected in the antibiotic resistant LB medium. After sequence confirmation, recombinant plasmids DNA were transfected into HEK293T cells, and the recombinant antibody obtained in the culture supernatant. The characteristics of recombinant expression antibodies were determined by using rapid antibody isotying kit, serological agglutination tests and flow cytometry. Results: Recombinant gene expression vectors, pFUSEss-CHIg-hG1+VH, pFUSE2ss-CLIg-hκ+VL, were successfully constructed. Human IgG1 kappa light chain antibodies were detected in the supernatant of HEK293T cells transient transfected with recombinant plasmids. After the supernatant was ultra-filtered and concentrated, it could cause agglutination reactions with P antigen-positive red blood cells. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the reaction between recombinant antibodies and antigen-positive red blood cells in flow cytometry experiments was higher than that of antigen-negative red blood cells. Conclusion: The experimental study on the conversion of red blood group antibody types by genetic engineering technology represents a beneficial exploration towards establishing a feasible technical route for the development of genetic recombination and modification of antibodies reagent.

BACKGROUND:Collagen combined with microneedling therapy has gradually become an important means of improving skin photoaging.OBJECTIVE:To summarize and explore the main mechanism and clinical application status of collagen combined with microneedle therapy.METHODS:PubMed,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,and ScienceDirect databases were searched for Chinese and English literature published before August 2024.Chinese and English search terms were"ultraviolet radiation,photoaging,collagen,microneedling,clinical applications."Finally,74 articles were included for summary.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Collagen treats skin photoaging through mechanisms such as inhibiting matrix metalloproteinase expression,retaining skin moisture,and reducing melanin formation.Microneedles can better promote the penetration of collagen into deep layers of the skin,breaking down the skin's barrier and increasing the absorption rate.Collagen combined with microneedles has various beneficial effects for treating skin photoaging,such as whitening,anti-wrinkle,improving skin elasticity,shrinking pores,and repairing skin barriers.It also has the advantages of easy operation,significant effects,and high safety.Currently,the research on collagen combined with microneedling therapy is still in its early stages,and achieving clinical application may become a key research direction in the future.The clinical application of collagen combined with microneedles for the treatment of photoaging still faces many challenges,such as exploring the optimal mechanical structure and materials of microneedles,selecting appropriate microneedle types,and insufficient clinical evidence that collagen combined with microneedles can further delay the treatment of skin photoaging.

ObjectiveTo quantitatively analyze and evaluate the content of China's assistive technology industry policies. MethodsBased on the three-dimensional framework of policy "objectives-instruments-intensity", this study examined 101 national-level assistive technology industry policies issued between 2011 and 2024. Policy text analysis was conducted to assess the matching and coordination among policy objectives, policy instruments and policy intensity. Furthermore, the policy modeling consistency (PMC) index model was applied to establish an evaluation system consisting of nine primary indicators and 35 secondary indicators, and six key policies were quantitatively evaluated. ResultsThe policy objectives mainly focused on optimizing the industrial development structure, also emphasized supportive environments for industrial development and the enhancement of innovation capacity. Policy instruments were dominated by supply-oriented and environment-oriented instruments, supplemented by demand-oriented instruments, aiming to strengthen technological foundations and competitiveness, promote standardized development, and facilitate industrial development and upgrading. Regarding the matching between policy objectives and instruments, multiple instruments were adopted to support different objectives, with different priorities. In terms of the matching between policy objectives and policy intensity, policies mainly emphasized improving the accessibility of assistive technology products and meeting the rehabilitation needs of different populations. Regarding the matching between policy instruments and policy intensity, supply-oriented instruments were more frequently adopted and showed higher policy intensity, indicating strong governmental efforts to optimize production factor allocation and enhance the capacity of market entities. The average PMC index score was 6.45, indicating relatively high policy quality, strong internal consistency, stable policy orientation, and clear objectives. The PMC scores for policy evaluation and policy instrument dimensions were relatively high, while some policies showed relatively narrow objectives. ConclusionChina's assistive technology industry policies demonstrate relatively high quality. Future policy development should further strengthen industrial innovation capacity, optimize the structure of policy instruments, and improve the alignment between policy objectives and instruments.

Objective To analyze the occurrence status of low blood pressure (BP) in patients with refractory heart failure (RHF) and its relationship with comorbidities. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 360 patients with RHF who were hospitalized in department of cardiology of Affiliated Nantong Hospital of Shanghai University from May 2021 to May 2025. These patients were divided into the RHF with BP group and the RHF group based on their blood pressure at admission. The general data and comorbidities were compared between both groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for coexisting BP. Results The heart rate (HR), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), blood urea nitrogen, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T, right atrial diameter, proportion of cardiac function grade IV, use rate of diuretics and prevalence rate of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in the RHF with BP group were higher while the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), albumin, left ventricular ejection fraction, use rate of lipid-lowering drugs and prevalence rate of coronary heart disease were lower compared to the RHF group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that increased HR (OR=1.685, 95%CI: 1.106-2.569), increased NT-proBNP (OR=1.772, 95%CI: 1.138-2.759), decreased HDL-C (OR=0.605, 95%CI: 0.400-0.917) and DCM (OR=1.956, 95%CI: 1.176-3.255) were independent risk factors affecting BP in RHF patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rate of low blood pressure in elderly RHF patients is about 19.17%. Increased heart rate, increased NT-proBNP, decreased HDL-C and dilated cardiomyopathy are closely linked to the occurrence of low blood pressure, and they can be used as clinically related factors to identify patients at high risk of low blood pressure.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Gegen Qinlian decoction (GQD) on myocardial injury induced by high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin in type 2 diabetic mice through network pharmacology and animal experiments. MethodsNetwork pharmacology was applied to screen the potential signaling pathways of GQD in the intervention of diabetic heart disease (DHD). A total of 36 specific pathogen-free (SPF) male C57BL/6J mice aged 8 weeks were acclimatized for 1 week and randomly divided into a normal control group (n=6) and a model group (n=30). Mice in the model group were fed a 60% high-fat diet and 5% glucose water for 4 weeks, and were intraperitoneally injected with 100 mg/kg streptozotocin after 12 h of fasting to establish the type 2 diabetes model. Mice in the normal control group were given a conventional diet and drinking water, and were intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of citrate buffer after 12 h of fasting at the same time point. After successful establishment of the diabetic mouse model, the model mice were randomly divided into five groups according to body weight: model control group, GQD low-dose group, GQD medium-dose group, GQD high-dose group, and metformin positive control group, with 6 mice in each group. After 6 weeks of intragastric administration of corresponding doses of GQD, metformin, and ddH₂O respectively, all mice in the six groups (one normal control group and five model groups) were anesthetized with inhaled 2% isoflurane, blood samples were collected via eyeball enucleation, and heart tissues were harvested after euthanasia by cardiac exsanguination. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) staining were performed to observe the pathological damage of myocardial tissues and measure the cross-sectional area of cardiomyocytes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in serum. Immunohistochemical staining was adopted to determine the protein expression levels of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing receptor 3 (NLRP3), and phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB p65 (p-p65) in myocardial tissues. ResultsNetwork pharmacology analysis revealed that the targets of GQD against DHD were significantly enriched in inflammatory pathways, including the advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-RAGE axis, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-17 (IL-17) signaling pathways. HE and WGA staining results showed that, compared with the normal control group, the model control group exhibited myocardial fiber rupture, cardiomyocyte swelling, and significantly increased cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area (P<0.05). Compared with the model control group, GQD intervention significantly ameliorated the pathological changes, including myocardial fiber rupture, cell swelling, and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. The results of immunohistochemical staining and ELISA indicated that compared with the model control group, GQD intervention markedly downregulated the protein expression of RAGE, NLRP3, and p-p65 in myocardial tissues, as well as the levels of serum pro-inflammatory cytokines (P<0.05). ConclusionGQD can effectively alleviate myocardial pathological injury in diet-induced type 2 diabetic mice, and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of the RAGE/p-p65/NLRP3 signaling pathway and reducing myocardial inflammatory response.

Objective: To investigate the association between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and periodontitis and to provide new epidemiologic evidence on the factors affecting periodontitis. Methods: Data on MHR, periodontitis, and other covariates were selected from the NHANES(National Health and Nutrition Examination) database for 3 cycles of subjects in 2009-2010, 2011-2012, and 2013-2014, and a total of 8 456 study subjects were included. The study participants were grouped according to the prevalence of periodontitis (presence or absence), and three regression models (unadjusted covariates, partially adjusted covariates, and fully adjusted covariates) were constructed to analyze the relationship between MHR and periodontitis by using a weighted logistic regression method with stepwise adjustment for confounders. MHR was divided into four groups from Q1 to Q4 according to quartiles from small to large for weighted trend analysis, and the nonlinear relationship between MHR (continuous) and periodontitis was analyzed using a restricted cubic spline with subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis. Results: All three logistic regression models showed a positive association between MHR and periodontitis (OR = 2.92, 95%CI: 2.14-3.99, P<0.001 (not adjusted); OR = 1.97, 95%CI: 1.39-2.78, P<0.001 (partially adjusted); OR = 1.62, 95%CI: 1.10-2.39, P = 0.017 (fully adjusted)). Trend analysis showed a significantly higher risk of developing periodontitis in the Q4 group compared with the Q1 group in both single (OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.58-2.33, P<0.001) and multifactorial analyses (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.03-1.64, P = 0.029). Restricted cubic spline results did not support a nonlinear relationship between MHR and periodontitis (P for nonlinear>0.05), subgroup analysis showed no significant interaction between the covariates and MHR (P>0.05), and sensitivity analysis also showed a positive correlation between MHR and periodontitis (OR = 1.67, 95%CI: 1.31-2.14, P<0.001). Conclusion MHR is positively associated with the risk of developing periodontitis.

p21-activated kinase 5(PAK5),a critical member of the PAK family,plays a significant regulatory role in cellular signaling transduction and cytoskeleton rearrangement.Accumulating researches have revealed that PAK5 is aberrantly expressed in various human malignancies,and its expression level is significantly correlated with tumor metastasis,invasiveness,and clinical prognosis of patients.At the molecular level,PAK5 promotes tumor cells migration and invasion by activating key signaling pathways(such as Wnt/β-catenin and MAPK)to induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),modulating tumor-associated microRNA(miRNA)networks,and remodeling actin cytoskeleton to enhance cellular motility.This review systematically dissects the molecular structural features and phosphorylation-dependent activation mechanisms of PAK5,delves into molecular mechanisms of PAK5 in tumor cells migration and invasion,and evaluates the potential of PAK5 as a therapeutic target.This work aims to provide a new perspective for developing PAK5-targeted precision therapeutic strategies in malignant tumors.

Objective:To compare the etiological characteristics between influenza-like illness (ILI) cases in outpatient and emergency departments and those with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) in Guangdong Province, hoping to provide scientific evidence for the treatment, prevention, and control of respiratory infectious diseases.Methods:Laboratory testing for multiple respiratory pathogens was conducted on 6 090 specimens collected from ILI and SARI cases in Guangdong Province from August to December 2023. Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences in positive rates. Results:The overall positive rate of respiratory pathogens was 49.5% (3 016/6 090). The positive rate was 54.5% (2 260/4 145) in ILI cases and 38.9% (756/1 945) in SARI cases. The overall positive rate was higher in ILI cases than in SARI cases across all genders and age groups, and in most cities of the province, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). No significant difference was found in the overall positive rate between different genders. However, the difference between different age groups was statistically significant( P<0.001), with the highest rate identified in children aged 5-14 years (57.2%, 957/1 673). The main pathogens detected in ILI cases were influenza virus, human rhinovirus/enterovirus, and Streptococcus pneumoniae, while in SARI cases they were Mycoplasma pneumoniae, human rhinovirus/enterovirus, and influenza virus. The positive rates of adenovirus, human parainfluenza virus, SARS-CoV-2, human coronavirus, influenza virus, and Streptococcus pneumoniae were significantly higher in ILI cases than in SARI cases, while the positive rate of Mycoplasma pneumoniae was significantly higher in SARI cases ( P<0.05). Moreover, ILI cases were characterized by a higher risk of coinfection compared with SARI cases, especially in males or those aged 25-59 years. Conclusions:There are differences in the detection rates and spectrum of respiratory pathogens between ILI and SARI cases in Guangdong Province. Case features should be considered when developing strategies for preventing and treating respiratory infections.
