Objective:To construct the over-expressed lentivirus vector of PRDM5 gene and establish the Neuro-2a cells stably transfected PRDM5,and to provide the basis evidence for exploring the effect of PRDM5 in pathogenesis of ischemic stroke(IS).Methods:The sequence of PRDM5 was searched and designed based on NCBI.The PRDM5 gene was amplified by PCR and ligated with the lentiviral vector GV492 digested by BamH Ⅰ and Age Ⅰ restriction enzymes to form the GV492-PRDM5 over-expression recombinant plasmid.The positive clones with similar length and size to the target gene fragment were screened by PCR and sent to Shenggong Bioengineering(Shanghai)Co.Ltd.for identification.The correctly-sequenced GV492-control plasmid and GV492-PRDM5 over-expression recombinant plasmid were transfected into the HEK293T cells,respectively.After 48 h of transfection,the lentiviruses were collected by centrifugation,and they were GV492-control lentivirus and GV492-PRDMS over-expression lentivirus;the titers of these two lentiviruses were determined by lentiviral titer assay.The Neuro-2a cells were divided into GV492-control group and GV492-PRDM5 group,and then infected with GV492-control lentivirus and GV492-PRDM5 over-expression lentivirus,respectively,with a lentivirus multiplicity of infection(MOI)of 100.The Neuro-2a cells successfully infected with GV492-control lentivirus and GV492-PRDM5 over-expression lentivirus were screened with puromycin(10 mng-L-1)after 72 h of infection.The growth status and the expression of green fluorescence protein of Neuro-2a cells in GV492-control group and GV492-PRDM5 group were observed by fluorescence microscope.The expression levels of PRDM5 mRNA and PRDM5 protein in the Neuro-2a cells in two groups were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative RCR(RT-qPCR)and Western blotting methods.Results:The PCR results showed that the length of the positive transformant of GV492-PRDM5 recombinant plasmid was about 684 bp,and the gene sequence of GV492-PRDM5 over-expression recombinant plasmid was consistent with the designed and synthesized PRDM5 over-expression sequence.The titers of GV492-control lentivirus and GV492-PRDM5 over-expression lentivirus were both 2.5×108TU·mL-1 The Neuro-2a cells in GV492-control group and GV492-PRDM5 group grew well,and the expressions of green fluorescence protein were found under fluorescence microscope.The RT-qPCR results showed that the expression level of PRDM5 mRNA in the Neuro-2a cells in GV492-PRDM5 group was significantly increased compared with GV492-control group(P＜0.01).The Western blotting results showed that the specific bands appeared in the Neuro-2a cells in GV492-control group and GV492-PRDM5 group with a relative molecular weight of 75 000;compared with GV492-control group,the expression level of PRDM5 protein in the Neuro-2a cells in GV492-PRDM5 group was increased(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The over-expression lentivirus vector of PRDM5 gene is successfully constructed,and the stably transfected GV492-PRDM5-Neuro-2a cells are established.

Natural human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies refer to preformed antibodies present in the body that are not induced by prior exposure to allogeneic HLA antigens. In healthy individuals without a sensitization history, the detection rate of natural HLA antibodies is approximately 20%-29% when using screening assays with low sensitivity, and can reach up to 63% when more sensitive HLA-specific detection methods are employed. It is therefore inferred that natural HLA antibodies may also be present in transplant candidates with a similar prevalence. This review comprehensively discusses the potential mechanisms of natural HLA antibody generation, the characteristics of the recognized epitopes, detection techniques, clinical relevance in transplantation, their potential to confound therapeutic decisions, and approaches to distinguish and mitigate their impact. The goal is to raise clinician awareness of the objective existence of natural HLA antibodies, provide guidance on evaluating their association with allograft rejection, and inform appropriate clinical management strategies when encountering natural HLA antibody-positive transplant candidates.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of bone metabolism parameters on cardiac autonomic nervous system function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 328 patients with T2DM hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of Gansu Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled in this study from October 2022 to October 2023.According to the serum 25(OH)D level,all the participants were divided into<10 ng/ml group(n=80),10～20 ng/ml group(n=173),and 20～30 ng/ml group(n=75).Biochemical indicators,bone metabolic parameters,left ventricular mass(LVM)and left ventricular mass index(LVMI)were compared.Time domain indicators ofheart rate variability(HRV)in 24 h holter electrocardiogram,including the global standard deviation of normal sinus RR interval(SDNN),sinus RR interval mean standard deviation(SDANN),and normal continuous sinus RR interval difference root mean square(RMSSD).Meanwhile,adjacent RR interval difference>50 ms as a percentage of the total inter-period(PNN50),HRV triangle index,standard deviation of the difference between the length of the entire adjacent NN interperiod(SDSD),and 24 h holter electrocardiogram HRV time-domain relevant indicators were compared among the three groups.The influence of bone metabolism parameters on cardiac autonomic nervous function and their correlation were analyzed,and the optimal cutting point of cardiac autonomic nervous function was predicted by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results SBP,heart rate(HR),FPG,PWV,PTH and β-CTX in groups of 10 ng/ml,10～20 ng/ml and 20～30 ng/ml decreased in turn(P<0.05),while HDL-C,ABI,25(OH)D,Ca2+and PNN50 decreased.Correlation analysis between Spearman and Pearson showed that 25(OH)D was positively correlated with SDNN,HRV triangle index,PNN50 and rMSSD(P<0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that 25(OH)D,Ca2+and HR were the influencing factors of cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction in patients with T2DM.The ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the ROC curve of 25(OH)D,Ca2+and HR were 0.791,0.607 and 0.629,respectively,with sensitivity of 73.4%,53.2%and 38.7%,and specificity of 74.0%,93.6%and 81.4%,respectively.Conclusions 25(OH)D is the influencing factor of cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction in patients with T2DM,and patients with high degree of deficiency are more prone to cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and cytokines expression characteristics in infants with mild and severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection.Methods:From May 2023 to December 2023, plasma samples and clinical information were collected from 16 infants with RSV infection and 14 control infants. Cytek Aurora flow cytometry (Cytek, America) and Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to detect the expression levels of 25 cytokines after mild and severe RSV infection.Results:Cough and nasal obstruction were the main clinical manifestations in infants with mild RSV infection, accompanied by polypnea, wheezing and other symptoms. The main symptoms of severe RSV infection were cough and rales, accompanied by fever and polypnea. In comparison with the control group, the expression levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-13, IL-22, TNF-α, IFN-α, IFN-β, MIP-1β, I-TAC, ENA-78, GROα, Eotaxin, and MCP-1 in the RSV infection group all exhibited an upregulation trend. Both IP-10 and MIP-3α demonstrated a downward trend in the RSV infection group; however, there was no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). The levels of IL-10, IFN-γ, MIP-1α, and IL-8 in the RSV infection group were significantly higher than those in the control group, whereas the levels of MIG, TARC, and RANTES in the RSV infection group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-13, IL-22, IFN-β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-8, I-TAC, MIP-1β, Eotaxin, and MCP-1 in the mild RSV infection group were significantly higher than those in the severe RSV infection group ( P>0.05). Among these, the levels of MIG, RANTES, TARC, MIP-3α, and ENA-78 in the mild infection group were all lower than those in the severe infection group. The expressions of ENA-78 and MIP-1α in the severe infection group were significantly higher than those in the mild infection group and also higher than those in the control group. There was no significant difference in IP-10 and GROα between the mild and severe RSV infection groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The differences in clinical features and cytokines between infants with mild and severe RSV infection provide important data support for the prevention and treatment of RSV infection in infants.
