Objective: To reveal the molecular basis of the cisAB (p. Met266Leu) glycosyltransferase by studying a proband with cisAB subtype and his family. Methods: A male newborn was selected as the research subject. Tube methods were used to identify ABO blood types of the proband and his family members. PCR-SSP detection, ABO gene sequencing, and cloning analysis were performed on the proband and some family members. The inheritance pattern of the subtype gene in the family was determined through pedigree analysis. Homology modeling was used to analyze the impact of amino acid variations on the structure of the transferase, and molecular docking was used to demonstrate the bifunctional activity of the transferase and the donor-receptor binding conformation. Results: Serological tests showed that the proband and his father had enhanced anti-H agglutination, and the grandmother had a forward and reverse discrepancy. Sequencing of the proband revealed heterozygous variations of c. 297A>G, c. 526C>G, c. 657C>T, c. 703G>A, c. 803G>C, and c. 930G>A compared with A1. 01 (compared with B. 01, lacking the c. 796C>A variation, namely harboring the c. 796A>C variation) and c. 261delG. Combined with cloning analysis, the proband's genotype was determined to be ABO
cisAB (c. 796A>C)/ABO
O. 01. 01, the father's genotype was ABO
cisAB (c. 796A>C)/ABO
O. 01. 02, and the grandmother's genotype was ABO
cisAB (c. 796A>C)/ABO
B102. Pedigree analysis indicated that the cisAB allele in this newborn was inherited from his father and grandmother rather than a natural mutation. Homology modeling showed that the side chain orientation and intermolecular forces of Leu266 in the cisAB (p. Met266Leu) transferase changed, and molecular docking demonstrated that the "binding pocket" of the active center of the variant enzyme could accommodate both UDP-GalNAc and UDP-Gal, indicating that the cisAB enzyme structure has bifunctional activity. Conclusion: The bifunctional activity of this cisAB (p. Met266Leu) enzyme is related to the nucleotide variation of c. 796A>C, and molecular docking indicates that the enzyme has dual affinity for A/B sugar donors.

Epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)gene mutation is a common oncogenic driver mutation in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).For patients with this gene mutation,the preferred first-line treatment is targeted therapy with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor,but the issues of drug resistance and disease progression will inevitably arise during the treatment.Standard platinum-based doublet chemotherapy regiment after failure of EGFR-TKIs has limited benefit,and more effective treatment strategies urgently need to be developed.In recent years,many studies have confirmed the efficacy of immunotherapy in NSCLC patients.Nevertheless,for advanced NSCLC patients with EGFR gene mutations,the efficacy of immunotherapy monotherapy is not satisfactory,thus immunotherapy-based combination therapy is receiving increasing attention.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of lenalidomide combined with bortezomib and dexamethasone (RVd) regimen in treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients and its effect on the levels of regulatory T cells (Treg cells) and natural killer (NK) cells.Methods:Thirty-eight NDMM patients who were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from September 2019 to May 2022 were selected for a prospective study, and were divided into control group (18 cases) and observation group (20 cases) according to random number table method. The control group was treated with bortezomib+epirubicin+dexamethasone (VAd) regimen, and the observation group was treated with RVd regimen. The efficacy and safety were compared between the two groups. The levels of Treg cells (CD4 + CD25 + FOXP3 +) and NK cells (CD3 - CD56 + CD16 +) before and after treatment in the two groups were detected by flow cytometry, and the results were compared. Results:After 4 courses of treatment, the objective response rate (ORR) of the observation group was 95.0% (19/20), which was higher than that of the control group [77.8% (14/18)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.016). Before treatment, there was no statistical difference in the levels of Treg cells and NK cells between the two groups ( P values were 0.381 and 0.650). After treatment, the level of Treg cells in the control group increased from (1.5±0.5)% before treatment to (4.7±1.3)% ( P = 0.008), while the level of Treg cells in the observation group increased from (1.4±0.5)% before treatment to (6.8±1.5)% ( P = 0.001), and the level in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( P = 0.027); the level of NK cells in the control group increased from (16±6)% before treatment to (20±5)% ( P = 0.004), while the level of NK cells in the observation group increased from (16±6)% before treatment to (24±6)% ( P = 0.006), and the level in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( P = 0.032). The incidence rates of thrombocytopenia and neutropenia in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P values were 0.012 and 0.027), which was reversible after active treatment. There was no statistical difference in the incidence rates of other adverse reactions (all P>0.05). Conclusions:RVd regimen for NDMM is clinically effective, safe and reliable, and the patients' levels of Treg cells and NK cells elevate after treatment.
9.A new approach to tumor immunobiological therapy:tumor vesicles
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 2023;30(8):649-655
[摘 要] 正常细胞及肿瘤细胞在发生凋亡或受到某些信号刺激时均可释放出直径为0.1~1 μm的膜状囊泡。肿瘤细胞受到信号刺激后骨架改变,导致细胞质膜包裹细胞内容物并向膜外侧起泡形成囊状小体,称为肿瘤囊泡,其不仅影响肿瘤细胞的生物学特性,对肿瘤免疫微环境也产生深刻的影响。除生物学效应外肿瘤囊泡还可作为一种天然的药物载体将治疗药物递送到肿瘤细胞,发挥抗肿瘤作用。研究证实,载药的肿瘤囊泡在天然免疫和获得性免疫反应中均体现良好的抗肿瘤激活效应,目前载药肿瘤囊泡已经进入临床应用阶段,在胆管癌、恶性胸腔积液的治疗中展现了良好的应用前景。
