Erythropoietic protoporphyria （EPP） is a rare inherited metabolic disease that often involves skin， blood， and nervous systems， and EPP with the main manifestations of severe liver damage and acute abdominal pain is extremely rare. By reviewing the clinical data and genetic testing results of a patient with EPP， this article discusses the clinical features and pathogenic genes of this disease， in order to improve the understanding of the disease among hepatologists and achieve early diagnosis and treatment.

Rhamnogalacturonan Ⅱ(RG-Ⅱ)is one of the structural domains of pectin whose structure is highly conserved among species.The main chain of RG-Ⅱ consists of approximately nine galacturonic acids linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds,with six well-defined side chains replacing them(A-F).The structures of the disaccharide side chains C and D and the monosaccharide side chains E and F in RG-Ⅱ from different sources remain essentially the same.In contrast,the oligosaccharide side chains A and B showed slight variability.Structural characterization of RG-Ⅱ can be achieved by molecular weight,monosaccharide composition,and mass spectrometry.The polysaccharides containing RG-Ⅱ structural domains in traditional Chinese medicines(TCMs)have high medicinal value.Isolation of RG-Ⅱ can be achieved using endo-polygalacturonase(Endo-PG)and Penicillium oxalicum.A substantial number of RG-Ⅱ standards can be rapidly prepared from red wine for the development of new quantitative methods to realize the quality control of active polysaccharides from traditional Chinese medicines and to promote the research process of polysaccharides from traditional Chinese medicines.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of a dual-crosslinked injectable hydrogel derived from acellular musclar matrix (AMM) for promoting myoblasts proliferation and myogenic differentiation. METHODS: Firstly, hyaluronic acid was oxidized with NaIO ₄ and methylated to prepare methacrylamidated oxidized hyaluronic acid (MOHA). Then, AMM obtained by washing enzymatically treated muscle tissue was aminolyzed to prepare aminated AMM (AAMM). MOHA hydrogel and AAMM were crosslinked using Schiff based reaction and UV radiation to prepare a dual-crosslinked MOHA/AAMM injectable hydrogel. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to characterize MOHA, AAMM, and MOHA/AAMM hydrogels. The injectability of MOHA/AAMM hydrogel were evaluated by manual injection, and the gelation performance was assessed by UV crosslinking. The rheological properties and Young's modulus of the hydrogel were examined through mechanical tests. The degradation rate of the hydrogel was assessed by immersing it in PBS. The active components of the hydrogel were verified using immunofluorescence staining and ELISA assay kits. The promotion of cell proliferation by the hydrogel was tested using live/dead staining and cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assays after co-culturing with C2C12 myoblasts for 9 days. The effect of the hydrogel on myogenic differentiation was evaluated by immunofluorescence staining and real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). RESULTS: FTIR spectra confirmed the successful preparation of MOHA/AAMM hydrogel. The hydrogel exhibited good injectability and gelation ability. Compared to MOHA hydrogel, MOHA/AAMM hydrogel exhibited higher viscosity and Young's modulus, a reduced degradation rate, and contained a higher amount of collagen (including collagen type Ⅰ and collagen type Ⅲ) as well as bioactive factors (including epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor 2, vascular endothelial growth factor, and insulin-like growth factor 1). The live/dead cell staining and CCK-8 assay indicated that with prolonged incubation time, there was a significant increase in viable cells and a decrease in dead cells in the C2C12 myoblasts within the MOHA/AAMM hydrogel. Compared with MOHA hydrogel, the difference was significant at each time point ( P<0.05). Immunofluorescence staining and RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated that the deposition of IGF-1 and expression levels of myogenic-related genes (including Myogenin, Troponin T, and myosin heavy chain) in the MOHA/AAMM group were significantly higher than those in the MOHA group ( P<0.05). CONCLUSION The MOHA/AAMM hydrogel prepared based on AMM can promote myoblasts proliferation and myogenic differentiation, providing a novel dual-crosslinked injectable hydrogel for muscle tissue engineering.

Objective:To observe the clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes in patients with retinal detachment associated with atopic dermatitis (AD-RD).Methods:A retrospective case series. From January 2015 to April 2023, 8 patients (12 eyes) with AD-RD at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University were included. All patients underwent best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), ultra-wide-field fundus photography, B-mode ultrasound, ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), and wide-field optical coherence tomography (OCT). BCVA was examined by standard logarithmic visual acuity chart and was converted into logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity for statistical purposes. In the primary surgery, 9 eyes underwent scleral buckling; 1 eye underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with silicone oil tamponade; 1 eye underwent PPV combined with C 3F 8 tamponade; 1 eye underwent C 3F 8 tamponade combined with retinal laser photocoagulation. The follow-up time was (29.1±40.9) months. BCVA before and after surgery was compared using paired t test. Results:Among the 8 patients, 6 were male and 2 were female. The mean age was (23.38±7.95) years old. Among them, 4 patients had bilateral affliction while the remaining 4 had unilateral involvement. The logMAR BCVA was 0.86±0.86. All 12 eyes were with a history of uveitis. Among 8 eyes with bilateral involvement, 6 of them were misdiagnosed as uveitis with exudative retinal detachment; 11 eyes had anterior uveitis at presentation; 9 eyes had a history of cataract, with 4 eyes having concurrent cataract and 5 eyes with intraocular lens. All affected eyes displayed as focal retinal detachment. UBM revealed ciliary epithelial detachment in 9 eyes, and no definite ciliary epithelial break was found in any case. Retinal breaks were observed in only 2 eyes in the pre-surgery retina examination, while ciliary epithelial holes were discovered in other 10 eyes during surgery. The retina was successfully reattached in 10 eyes after one surgery, including 9 eyes received scleral buckling. During the final follow-up, the logMAR BCVA of the affected eye improved significantly to 0.30±0.25 compared to pre-surgery values ( t=2.43, P=0.03). Conclusions:AD-RD is a challenging complication of AD with a high rate of young onset, bilateral involvement, associated with concurrent cataracts, and shallow temporal retinal detachment associated with ciliary epithelial detachment. Scleral buckling is an effective treatment for AD-RD.

After treatment, the improvement of TCM syndromes in the treatment group had statistically significant difference compared with before treatment[before treatment (9.29±4.22)points, after treatment (5.04±3.83)points, t=3.656, P=0.001], but that in the control group had no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). The treatment group was better than the control group ( t=-2.081, P=0.044). The total effective rate of the treatment group was 58.33% (14/24), which was significantly higher than that of the control group[26.32% (5/19)], and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=5.831, P<0.05). Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in the total score of QOL between the two groups ( P>0.05). After treatment, the scores of QOL in both two groups were improved, the differences were statistically significant[the control group: (40.37±2.93)points vs.(38.21±2.76)points, t=2.337, P=0.025; the treatment group: (41.46±2.57)points vs.(36.54±2.34)points, t=6.929, P=0.000], and the QOL score of the treatment group was better than that of the control group ( t=-2.145, P=0.038). Conclusion:The improvement of TCM syndromes and QOL of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia with spleen-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome treated by spleen and marrow strengthening method combined with CAG regimen is better than that treated by CAG chemotherapy alone.
