Objective:To observe the presence or absence of necroptosis in PC12 cells after radiation injury, and to detect the expression of receptor-interacting protein 3(RIP3) and evaluate its regulatory effect on necroptosis.Methods:PC12 cells were treated with different doses of irradiation and their necroptosis was detected by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release at different time points. After pretreatment with necroptosis inhibitor Necrostatin-1(Nec-1), the changes of cell necroptosis were detected by LDH. The expression level of RIP3 after irradiation intervention was detected by Western blot (WB). After pretreatment with the RIP3-specific inhibitor GSK′872, the changes of cell necroptosis were detected by LDH. The best transfection sequence of RIP3 knockout was screened by WB. The cells were divided into the control group, irradiation group, solvent control group, no-load control group and pretreatment group. WB, immunofluorescence staining, MTT, LDH and Annex V-fluorescein Isothiocyanate/Propidium Iodide (AnnexV-FITC/PI) flow cytometry were used for detection and analysis.Results:After 4 Gy irradiation, the degree of cell necrosis was the highest after 3 hours of culture, and the expression level of RIP3 protein was up-regulated. The cell necrosis was decreased after Nec-1, GSK′872 and RIP3 gene knockdown pretreatment.Conclusions:The radiation injury of 4 Gy can induce the necroptosis of PC12 cells, and the most significant effect can be observed when cultured for 3 hours after irradiation. RIP3 is involved in the process of necroptosis of PC12 cells induced by radiation injury, and plays a pivotal positive regulatory role.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations and genetic features of children with papillorenal syndrome caused by PAX2 gene mutation.Methods Clinical manifestations,imaging changes and sequencing data were collected and analyzed from a family with papillorenal syndrome who were diagnosed in Wuhan Children's Hospital in February 2018."PAX2","papillorenal syndrome" and "renal coloboma syndrome" were used as key words to search in China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wangfang Data Knowledge Service Platform,PubMed and Human Gene Mutation Database up to April 2018.Results A ten years old girl was admitted due to "edema and urine output decreased for one week".Lab showed BUN 25.30 mmol/L,Scr 766.5 μmol/L,Urine protein 3.6 g/24 h.Imaging examination showed bilateral vesical and ureter reflux combined with left duplex kidney and duplication of ureter.Developmental dysplasia of the left hip was also found.The father of the patient had been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease for 10 years and on hemodialysis for 6 years.Next generation sequencing revealed that both the father and daughter carried a heterozygous nonsense mutation in the exon3 c.219C ＞ G(p.Y73X) of PAX2.No Chinese literature ever was reported about papillorenal syndrome.Ninety-four articles in English were retrieved and 177 patients with papillorenal syndrome were confirmed by gene analysis with a total of 92 PAX2 variants.Ten nonsense mutations had been reported.Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) never be reported before.Conclusion Papillorenal syndrome caused by PAX2 mutation can mainly manifest as abnormal development of both kidney and optic nerve,which may be accompanied by other systemic abnormalities,it is rarely reported in China.DDH may be a new phenotype of papillorenal syndrome.

Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of tuberculosis (TB) cases in Zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014, and to identify the cluster spots.Methods TB notification data in Zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014 were analyzed at county and district level by using spatial scan statistic analysis method, which was showed on the digital map.Results In zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014, a total of 377 707 cases of patients with tuberculosis were reported.The average annual registration rates of the entire province was 72.61/100 000 (range: 28.85/100 000-182.90/100 000).Spatial analysis identified 14 clusters (RR=1.05-1.62) with statistical significance.Temporal analysis revealed that there were clusters between 2005 and 2009 in terms of the notification data on TB cases (RR=1.27,P=0.001).Spatio-temporal analysis identified 6 clusters (RR=1.19-3.55) with statistical significance.Counties and districts included in the first class cluster were similar by using the two different methods-spatial analysis and spatial-temporal analysis.Conclusions There is a descending trend of TB cases notification rates from western to eastern Zhejiang during the study period.The distribution of the TB case notified is not random at spatial, temporal and spatio-temporal levels.

Acute Stanford type A aortic dissection with important branches involved is more complex, could lead to organ malperfusion syndrome even organ failure. The understanding of pathological anatomy, classification, staging, and the pathophysiological change has increasingly mature, but not complete. In addition, the treatment strategy for complex lesions is diversified, some questions may not reach consensus. Fully understanding of the anatomical and pathophysiology is very important for surgeons to choose reasonable treatment strategy. As the rapid development of the basic research, imaging techniques and the concept of surgery procedures, the manage technique of Stanfrod type A dissection and branch vessels at the same time is getting seriously, the related issues also need further discussions.

Objective To analyze the spatial distribution characteristics ofmultidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) cases in Zhejiang province in 2010-2012.Methods Data on MDR-TB cases in Zhejiang province were collected and linked to the digital map at the county and district levels.ArcGIS 10.0 software was used for spatial analysis.Results Results from the spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that spatial aggregation appeared in MDR-TB distribution during 2010-2012 while local Moran's I spatial autocorrelation analysis identified several "high incidence regions" (Wuxing,Deqing,Yuhang,Gongshu,Jianggan,Xiaoshan,Yuecheng,Shaoxing Shengzhou,Changshan,Kecheng),and "low incidence region" (Haishu).Through Getis-Ord General G spatial autocorrelation analysis,18 "positive hotspots" (Wuxing,Nanxun,Deqing,Yuhang,Shangcheng,Xiacheng,Gongshu,Jianggan,Binjiang Xiaoshan Xihu,Haining,Yuecheng,Shaoxing,Zhuji,Shengzhou,Kecheng and Suichang) and 11 "negative hotspots" (Nanhu,Haiyan,Cixi,Dinghai,Zhenhai,Jiangbei,Jiangdong,Beilun,Yinzhou,Fenghua,and Yueqing) were identified.Conclusions Spatial analysis on MDR-TB incidence implied the spatial aggregation in Zhejiang province.Data showed that the hotspots with high population density and human movement were under progressive expansion.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of 64-slice computed tomography with MinIP and MPR for imaging the bronchus related to a solitary pulmonary lesion (SPL). Methods Seventy-five subjects with solitary pulmonary lesions underwent chest 64-slice CT and their bronchi were analyzed retrospectively. All images of thin-section (0.625 mm) were reconstructed with MPR and MinIP into images of 1, 2, 3, and 5 mm thickness and 1 mm gap in two orthogonal planes along the long axis of bronchus related to the SPL. The image quality of four series of MinIP and MPR images was evaluated in the aspect of bronchus visibility and pulmonary vascular masking. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction and interclass correlation coefficient were used in the statistical analysis. Results (1) The mean scores of display of the bronchi on MinIP images of four series (4.85, 4.77 and 4.84, 4.63 and 4.67, 4.25 and 4.28, in 1, 2, 3, and 5 mm thickness, respectively) and on MPR images of 1 or 2 mm thickness (4.77 and 4.76, 4.04 and 4.27, in 1 and 2 mm thickness, respectively) were good or excellent. MPR images of 1 mm thickness and MinIP images of 1-3 mm thickness showed no significant differences (t=0.318, P> 0.05 for all), but they were superior to MinIP images of 5 mm thickness (t=6.318 and 6.610, P＜0.01). MPR images of 2 mm thickness were inferior to MinIP images of 1-3 mm thickness (t=5.003-8.958, P＜0.01), but there was no significant difference between MPR images of 2 mm thickness and MinIP images of 5 mm thickness (t=1.794 and 0.3181, all P> 0.05). (2) The effect of suppression of pulmonary vascular markings on MinIP images was better with the increase of slice thickness (F=45.312 and 40.415, P＜0.01). The mean scores of MinIP images of 3 mm and 5 mm thickness (4.67 and 4.64, 5.00 and 4.97, for 3 and 5 mm thickness, respectively) were good or excellent, but MinIP images of 2 mm thickness were just acceptable. Conclusion MinIP images of 3 mm thickness may display the bronchus related to SPL more clearly.

Peanut is one of the most popular foods in the world due to its high nutrition; however, it contains multiple seed storage proteins which are identified as allergens and hence are the most common cause of life-threatening, IgE-mediated anaphylaxis among the hypersensitive individuals. Three peanut proteins, Arachis hypogaea allergy 1, 2, 3 (Ara h 1, Ara h 2 and Ara h 3), which have the common biochemical characteristics like resistance to proteases and heat, are considered as the major allergens because they are recognized by serum IgE from a peanut-allergic patient population. The linear IgE-binding epitopes in the allergens lay the foundation of the anaphylaxis in the peanut-allergic individuals. Peanut allergy is often a life-long problem, so many investigators are focusing on decreasing clinical reactivity. In this review, the latest advances in the researches on biochemical characteristics, structure and function of the three major allergens were described and particular attention was given to the immunity properties of the three allergens. The future research directions were also discussed.
