Objective To develop engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles,Angiopep-2 E.coli membrane(ANG-2 EM)@PDA-PEI-CpG(ANG-2 EM@PPC),for efficient targeted drug delivery in the treatment of glioma,and to provide theoretical and technical support for targeted glioma therapy.Methods The expression of inaX-N-angiopep-2 engineered bacteria was constructed in the laboratory,and ANG-2 EM was obtained through lysozyme treatment and ultrafiltration centrifugation.ANG-2 EM@PPC was prepared by ultrasonication of bacterial membranes.Western blotting,agarose gel electrophoresis,and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to verify the preparation.Particle size and Zeta potential were measured to investigate the stability of ANG-2 EM@PPC.Regarding cell experiments,CCK-8 assay was performed to determine the effect of ANG-2 EM@PPC on the survival rate of neutrophils.A flow chamber model was designed and constructed,and the uptake efficiency of neutrophils was measured by flow cytometry to investigate the hitchhiking efficiency of ANG 2 EM@PPC on neutrophils in inflammatory environment.Neutrophil death patterns were characterized by fluorescence microscopy,and flow cytometry and Western blotting were performed to examine neutrophil apoptotic bodies and the proportion of apoptotic bodies produced.Regarding animal experiments,a mouse model of in situ glioma was established and the inflammatory environment of tumor tissue was verified.The tumor model mice were divided into three groups,including DiR group,EM@PPC group,and ANG-2 EM@PPC group(all n=3),which were injected with DiR,ANG-2 EM@PDA-PEI-CpG,and EM@PDA-PEI-CpG via the tail vein,respectively(all at 10 mg/kg).Fluorescence images of organs and the brain were used to examine the distribution of the three formulations in vivo and in the brain.The tumor model mice were further divided into PBS group,PDA group,PC group,PPC group,EM@PPC group,and ANG-2 EM@PPC group(all n=4),which were injected with PBS,PDA,PC,PPC,EM@PPC,and ANG-2 EM@PPC injected via the tail vein,respectively(all at 10 mg/kg).Imaging was performed in vivo to observe tumor regression,and the survival rate and body mass of mice were measured to evaluate in vivo pharmacodynamics.TUNEL staining(brain tissue)and HE staining(brain,heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissues)were performed to evaluate the therapeutic effect.Results The results of TEM showed successful preparation of engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles,with PPC exhibiting a distinct shell-core structure and a shell thickness of about 8.2 nm.Due to the coating of ANG-2 EM,the shell thickness of ANG-2 EM@PPC increased to about 9.6 nm,with a clear bacterial membrane layer on the surface.Stability was maintained for at least one week.ANG-2 EM@PPC had no significant effect on the activity of neutrophils according to the findings from the CCK-8 assay.Flow cytometry showed that ANG-2 EM@PPC uptake is enhanced in activated neutrophils and hitchhiking on neutrophils was more efficient in the stationary state than that in the flowing condition.Compared with the EM@PPC group,the neutrophil hitchhiking ability of the ANG-2 EM@PPC group was enhanced(uptake efficiency 24.9%vs.31.1%).Fluorescence microscopy showed that ANG-2 EM@PPC changed the death pathway of neutrophils from neutrophil extracellular traps-osis(NETosis)to apoptosis.Western blot confirmed the production of neutrophil apoptotic bodies,and flow cytometry showed that the production rate was as high as 77.7%.Animal experiments showed that there was no significant difference in the distribution of engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles in the organs(heart,liver,spleen,lungs,and kidney)in the DiR group,the EM@PPC gropu,and the ANG-2 EM@PPC group(P＞0.05),but there was higher distribution in the brain tissue in EM@PPC and ANG-2 EM@PPC groups compared to the DiR group(P＜0.05).Engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles crossed the blood-brain barrier(BBB),and exhibited high affinity to and internalization by neutrophils located in brain tumors.Compared with PBS,PDA,PC,and PPC groups,the survival rate and body mass of mice in the EM@PPC group were improved,tumor fluorescence intensity was weakened,and apoptotic cells were increased.These trends were even more prominent in the ANG-2 EM@PPC group.No abnormality was found in the HE staining of any group.Conclusion An ANG-2 EM@PPC nanodelivery system with inflammation response characteristics was successfully prepared,capable of crossing BBB and targeting the tumor inflammatory microenvironment to improve the anti-glioma efficacy.This study provides a new drug delivery strategy for glioma treatment and offers a new idea for targeted drug delivery in the non-invasive inflammatory microenvironments in other central nervous system diseases.

Objective To study the change of the level of plasma D-dimer(DD) in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)and its significance.Methods 96 CHD patients were divided into various groups according to coronary angiography and clinical manifestation: 26 patients with simple lesions,47 patients with complex lesions,12 patienty with acute myocardial in-farction(AMI),42 patienty with unstable angina pectoris(UAP),19 patienty with stable angina pectoris(SAP)and 23 patienty with normal healthy control subjects.The level of plasma DD was detected.Results Plasma concentrations of DD were higher in patients with complex lesion((0.501?0.209)mg/L)than in those with simple lesions((0.328?0.1)mg/L)(P

Objective To understand the species,species distribution,the dominant species and their interspecies interaction of chigger mites on Eothenomys miletus(a dominant species of rats)in Yunnan.Method The rats were captured with mouse traps in 16 counties(or cities)during 2000-2004.All mites on the surface of two auricles of the hosts were collected and identified.The patch index(m*/m)and the coefficient of association(V)were adopted to judge the spatial distribution patterns and interspecies interaction of the dominant chigger mite species among different individuals of the rats(E.miletus).Results 1157 individuals of E.miletus were captured from 16 counties(citys).37613 chigger mites(belonging to 3 subfamily,9 genus and 80 species)were collected from the auricles(body surface)of 1157 rat hosts with a high “overall mite infestation rate”(68.2%)and “overall mite index”(32.5).Six species of mites were found dominant on E.miletus:Leptotrombidium scutellare,Leptotrombidium sinicum,Helenicula simena,Leptotrombidium eothenomydis,Herpetacarus hastoclavus and Leptotrombidium hiemalis.The distribution of the chigger mites among different individuals of E.miletus showed an aggregation pattern.Both positive and negative association existed between each two dominant species of chigger mites.Conclusion The species composition of chigger mites on Eothenomys miletus is complex with abundant individuals,which reflects a high species diversity of the mites.The main species of chigger mites tend to an aggregation on the body surface of E.miletus.
