Objective To evaluate the clinical application effect of fracture liaison service(FLS)mode after percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP)/percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP)for thoracolumbar fragility fracture.Methods A prospective study was conducted,and 762 patients with thoracolumbar fragility fracture who underwent PVP/PKP in the department of orthopedics in our hospital from January 2018 to May 2021 were included and divided into the control group(374 cases)and the observation group(388 cases)according to the random number table method.Patients in the control group received routine osteoporosis intervention,while the patients in the observation group implemented FLS through Blue Bull Medical Care or Chronic Health APP on the basis of the control group to systematically manage the osteoporosis treatment after discharge.The follow-up lasted for 12 months,and the 8-item Morisky medication adherence scale(MMAS-8)score,pain visual analogue scale(VAS)score,Oswestry disability index(ODI)score and Hamilton depression rating scale(HAMD)score at discharge,and 6 months and 12 months after discharge of the two groups were compared.The incidences of re-fracture and constipation 6 months and 12 months after discharge of the two groups were compared.The Cobb angle and bone mineral density T-value of injured vertebrae 6 months and 12 months after discharge of the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the MMAS-8 score,VAS score,ODI score or HAMD score at discharge of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The VAS score,ODI score and HAMD score 6 months and 12 months after discharge in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),the MMAS-8 score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),and the incidences of re-fracture and constipation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the Cobb angle of injured vertebrae 12 months after discharge of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The bone mineral density T-value 12 months after discharge in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The FLS mode can significantly improve the medication compliance of patients,relieve pain,depression and constipation,improve bone mineral density,and significantly reduce the incidence of vertebral re-fracture in patients after vertebral augmentation surgery;however,it has no significant effect on the Cobb angle of injured vertebrae.

A prokaryotic expression vector for the mutant diphtheria toxin CRM197 was constructed and expressed in Esch-erichia coli cells.Anti-CRM197 antibody concentrations were detected in serum samples of healthy volunteers.The crm 197 gene was codon-optimized in E.coli and cloned into the plasmid pET28a(+)under optimized expression conditions.CRM197 was purified using Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography,and confirmed by western blot analysis.The puri-fied CRM197 was used to detect specific anti-CRM197 antibody levels in serum samples of different age groups.The results showed that soluble codon-optimized CRM197 was successfully expressed under optimized expression conditions.The purity of CRM197 was more than 95％,as determined with Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography,consistent with the single specific bands obtained by western blot analysis and detection of serum levels of the anti-CRM197 antibody.Collec-tively,these results confirmed that the proposed expression strategy achieved high-yield production of soluble CRM197,al-though high levels in human serum may affect evaluation of immune interactions with glycan-CRM197 conjugates for applica-tion as a diagnostic antigen.The diphtheria mutant toxin CRM197 is used in many conjugate vaccines.The synthetic crm 197 gene with codon optimization in pET28a was transformed into E.coli Origami B(DE3)cells.CRM197 was induced by isopro-pyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside and high level accumulation of soluble CRM197 was purified using Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography.The purity of the final prepara-tion reached 95％.CRM197 was used to detect the concentra-tions of the anti-CRM197 antibody in serum samples of healthy volunteers of different ages.The proposed expression strategy yielded high production of CRM197,which could interfere with evaluations of induced immune interactions by glycan-CRM197 conjugates and prohibit application as a diagnostic antigen.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics,molecular characteristics,treatment and prognosis of pediatric Philadelphia chromosome-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia(Ph-like ALL)with a therapeutic target.Methods:A total of 27 patients of Ph-like ALL with targeted drug target were initially diagnosed in Children's Hospital of Soochow University from December 2017 to June 2021.The data of age,gender,white blood cell(WBC)count at initial diagnosis,genetic characteristics,molecular biological changes,chemotherapy regimen,different targeted drugs were given,and minimal residual disease(MRD)on day 19,MRD on day 46,whether hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT)were retrospective analyed,and the clinical characteristics and treatment effect were summarized.Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method.Results:The intensity of chemotherapy was adjusted according to the MRD level during induced remission therapy in 27 patients,10 patients were treated with targeted drugs during treatment,and 3 patients were bridged with HSCT,1 patient died and 2 patients survived.Among the 24 patients who did not receive HSCT,1 patient developed relapse,and achieved complete remission(CR)after treatment with chimeric antigen receptors T cells(CAR-T).The 3-year overall survival,3-year relapse-free survival and 3-year event-free survival rate of 27 patients were(95.5±4.4)％,(95.0±4.9)％and(90.7±6.3)％respectively.Conclusion:Risk stratification chemotherapy based on MRD monitoring can improve the prognosis of Ph-like ALL in children,combined with targeted drugs can achieve complete remission as soon as possible in children whose chemotherapy response is poor,and sequential CAR-T and HSCT can significantly improve the therapeutic effect of Ph-like ALL in children whose MRD is continuously positive during induced remission therapy.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of the clinical characteristics,fever characteristics,serum biomarkers with cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM) treated with chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy. Methods:104 R/R MM patients who received CAR-T cell therapy at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from June 2017 to November 2021 were included,and the correlations of their clinical characteristics,fever characteristics,serum biomarkers with the severity of CRS were analyzed. Results:Among 104 R/R MM patients receiving CAR-T treatment,no CRS was observed in 8 cases (7.7％),and 96 cases (92.3％) developed CRS. Patients with high-risk cytogenetics had a higher risk of developing CRS (P=0.040),while patients who had previously received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) had a lower risk of developing CRS (P=0.004). There was a significant difference in the duration of fever between patients with grade 1-2 and grade 3-5 CRS (P=0.006). The highest body temperature varied among patients with different treatment regimens (P=0.001). The decrease in total protein in patients with CRS was more significant than in patients without CRS (P=0.002). Within one month after CAR-T cell infusion,the degree of albumin recovery in patients with grade 3-5 CRS was lower than that in patients with grade 0-2 CRS (P=0.037). Compared to patients with grade 1-2 CRS,patients with grade 3-5 CRS showed a significant increase in heart rate after CAR-T cell infusion (P=0.013),while IL-6,C-reactive protein (CRP),and serum ferritin (SF) also showed significant increases (P=0.007,P<0.001,P=0.003). Conclusion:High-risk cytogenetics is a risk factor for severe CRS. Long duration of fever is a clinical characteristic of severe CRS. CRP can better reflect the severity of CRS.

The compound (E)-1-(4-(3-(5-chloro-6-oxo-3,6-dihydropyridin-1(2H)-yl)-3-oxo-propyl-1-ene-1-yl) phenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl) urea (C12), a novel derivative of piperlongumine previously synthesized by our research group, was investigated in this study to examine its effects on human non-small cell lung cancer cell line H1299 in vitro and elucidate its potential mechanism of action. The impact of C12 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of H1299 cells were assessed using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, wound healing assay, cloning formation assay, and Transwell assay. Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate the influence of C12 on cell cycle progression, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and apoptosis induction in H1299 cells. Western blot analysis was conducted to investigate the expression levels of p21, Cyclin B1, CDK1, Bax, Bcl-2, JNK, p-JNK, Erk1/2, p-Erk1/2, p38 and p-p38 proteins for exploring the anti-tumor mechanism underlying C12's actions. The results demonstrated that C12 exerted inhibitory effects on the proliferation, migration, and invasion capacities of H1299 cells in a time-dependent and concentration-dependent manner. Moreover, C12 induced G2/M phase arrest in the cell cycle, reduced MMP levels, elevated ROS production, and triggered apoptotic processes. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that C12 downregulated Cyclin B1 and CDK1 protein expressions, resulting in G2/M phase arrest. C12 also upregulated Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, promoting apoptosis. Furthermore, C12 activated MAPK signaling pathway by enhancing phosphorylation levels of JNK, Erk1/2, and p38 proteins. In conclusion, C12 significantly suppressed proliferation, migration, and invasion capabilities while inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in H1299 cells. These effects may be attributed to activation of the MAPK signaling pathway.

2-(4-Methylthiazol-5-yl) ethyl nitrate hydrochloride (W1302) is a nitro containing derivative of clomethiazole, which is a novel neuroprotective agent with both carbon monoxide (NO) donor and weak γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA_A) receptor allosteric regulatory excitatory effect. The current study used a rat model of transient middle cerebral arteryocclusion (tMCAO) brain injury to evaluate the therapeutic effect of W1302 on ischemic stroke and explore its potential mechanisms of action. This experiment has been reviewed and approved by the Laboratory Animal Management and Use Committee of the Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (ethical review forms No. 620, 632, 5013). The results showed that gavage administration of 1, 3, and 10 mg·kg^-1 of W1302 can significantly reduce the volume of cerebral infarction in rats with ischemia for 2 h and reperfusion for 24 h, and the therapeutic effect was better than that of 200 mg·kg^-1 of DL-3n-butylphthalide. W1302 significantly increased NO levels in blood and brain tissue. It increased cerebral blood flow and brain adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content after reperfusion, as well as, inhibited the expressions of inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in brain tissue. The time window of W1302 was between 120-180 min after ischemia. These research results demonstrated that W1302 could increase NO release, dilate blood vessels, and increase cerebral blood flow, improve energy supply to brain tissue and increase ATP levels, and inhibit neuro-inflammation, which playing the protective roles in tMCAO stroke model rats. This provides theoretical support for the clinical application of W1302 in the treatment of ischemic stroke.
