Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of HLA-genotype matched platelet transfusion using a platelet donor database for severe platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) caused by HLA antigen-antibody incompatibility. Methods Using real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) to identify he patient's HLA class I genotype, followed by searching the platelet donor database for matching donors, and selecting highly compatible donors for transfusion. Platelets with higher compatibility levels were prioritized for transfusion recommendations. Results Among the 19 patients studied, 7 patients identified donors with B2U or higher compatibility, 6 patients identified donors with BX or higher compatibility, and 6 patients did not find a suitable donor. The transfusion efficacy was evaluated by calculating the corrected count increment (CCI) 24 hours post-transfusion, and all transfusions were effective. Conclusion The optimal strategy to prevent and treat patients with severe platelet transfusion refractoriness is to ensure patients receive platelet transfusions that are matched to their HLA genes, and this approach significantly enhances transfusion efficacy.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

This study aimed to analyze the impact of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of ADCY3 (encoding adenylate cyclase 3) on the outcome of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on body composition and screen genetic markers sensitive to HIIT in Chinese Han youth. A total of 237 non-regular exercise Han college students were recruited in a 12-week HIIT program, attending sessions 3 times a week. Before and after the HIIT program, their body composition was measured. DNA from the white blood cells was extracted and genotyped. PLINK (V1.09) software was used for quality control screening of SNPs loci, and a linear regression model was constructed to analyze the association between ADCY3 gene SNPs loci and body composition. ANOVA multiple comparisons (LSD) were performed to test the difference between groups, with the significance level set at 0.05. The results showed that: 1) A total of 22 SNPs loci were identified by the gene microarray scanning of ADCY3 gene, with 15 of them meeting the quality control criteria. The rs6753096 locus was associated with the training effect of HIIT on body composition; 2) The rs6753096 locus was not associated with pre-HIIT body composition; 3) Compared with volunteers with TT genotype, those with CT/CC genotype exhibited significant decrease in body mass index (BMI) and total body fat after training (P < 0.05); Male volunteers carrying the C allele had more significant training changes in skeletal muscle and lean body weight, while HIIT was more effective in decreasing body fat in female volunteers with CT/CC genotype; 4) The rs6753096 locus was significantly correlated with body fat sensitivity to HIIT (P = 0.0475), indicating that volunteers with CT/CC genotype were more sensitive to HIIT. In conclusion, 12-week HIIT program effectively improved the body composition of college students. The ADCY3 gene rs6753096 locus is not associated with pre-HIIT body composition, but it is associated with body composition sensitivity to HIIT, with individuals carrying CT/CC genotype showing greater responsiveness to HIIT.

This paper aims to investigate the effects and mechanisms of adipose-derived stem cells-exosomes(ADSCs-exos) toge-ther with aucubin in protecting human-derived nucleus pulposus cells(NPCs) from inflammatory injury, senescence, and apoptosis. The tert-butyl hydroperoxide(TBHP)-induced NPCs were assigned into normal, model, aucubin, ADSCs-exos, and aucubin+ADSCs-exos groups. The cell viability was examined by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8), cell proliferation by EdU staining, cell senescence by senescence-associated-β-galactosidase(SA-β-Gal), and cell cycle and apoptosis by flow cytometry. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to examine the expression of interleukin-1β(IL-1β), IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α). Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot were employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels of aggregated proteoglycan(aggrecan), type Ⅱ collagen alpha 1(COL2A1), Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4), and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB). The results showed that compared with the model group, the aucubin or ADSCs-exos group showed enhanced viability and proliferation of NPCs, decreased proportion of G_0/G_1 phase cells, increased proportion of S phase cells, reduced apoptosis and proportion of cells in senescence, lowered IL-1β and TNF-α levels, elevated IL-10 level, down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of TLR4 and NF-κB, and up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of aggrecan and COL2A1. Compared with the aucubin or ADSCs-exos group, the aucubin+ADSCs-exos combination further increased the viability and proliferation of NPCs, decreased the proportion of G_0/G_1 phase cells, increased the proportion of S phase cells, reduced the apoptosis and proportion of cells in senescence, lowered the IL-1β and TNF-α levels, elevated the IL-10 level, down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4 and NF-κB, and up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of aggrecan and COL2A1. In summary, both aucubin and ADSCs-exos could exert protective effects by inhibiting inflammatory responses, reducing apoptosis and senescence of NPCs, improving cell viability and proliferation as well as extracellular matrix synthesis, which may be associated with the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway activation. The combination of both plays a synergistic role in the protective effects.
