The effect of porcine SIRT5 on replication of foot and mouth disease virus type O(FMDV-O)and the underlying regulatory mechanism were investigated.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were employed to monitor expression of endoge-nous SIRT5 in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O.Three pairs of SIRT5-specific siRNAs were synthesized.Changes to SIRT5 and FMDV-O protein and transcript levels,in addition to virus copy numbers,were measured by western blot and RT-qPCR analyses.PK-15 cells were transfected with a eukaryotic SIRT5 expression plasmid.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were used to explore the impact of SIRT5 overexpression on FMDV-O replication.Meanwhile,RT-qPCR analysis was used to detect the effect of SIRT5 overexpression on the mRNA expression levels of type I interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.The results showed that expression of SIRT5 was up-regulated in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O and siRNA interfered with SIRT5 to inhibit FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 overexpression promoted FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 over-expression decreased mRNA expression levels of interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.These results suggest that FMDV-O infection stimulated expression of SIRT5 in PK-15 cells,while SIRT5 promoted FMDV-O rep-lication by inhibiting production of type I interferon-stimula-ted genes.These findings provide a reference to further ex-plore the mechanism underlying the ability of porcine SIRT5 to promote FMDV-O replication.

Perilla frutescens,a short-day plant,is rich in biologically active substances and nutrients.Current research on Perilla frutescens focuses on agronomic traits such as yield and fatty acid accumula-tion,with limited exploration of the flowering process and floral organ development.The molecular regu-latory mechanisms underlying these aspects remain unclear.FLOWERING LOUC T(FT)is a florigen in Arabidopsis,plays critical roles in floral transition.PfFT3 is unannotated by genome but annotated by transcriptomics data to the FT-like subfamily.Its function in controlling flowering is yet to be explored.Here subcellular localization analysis showed that PfFT3 is localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm.The plant over-expression vector pCAMBIAI1303-PfFT3 was constructed and transformed into wild-type(Col-0)and mutant fd-2,fd-3,and ft-10 plants by agrobacterium-mediated inflorescence infiltration as a means of obtaining genetically stable and pure overexpression and backfill transgenic lines in Arabidopsis,respectively.Analysis of the results showed that overexpression of PfFT3 significantly promoted early flowering in Arabidopsis and rescued the late-flowering phenotype of the mutants fd-2,fd-3,and ft-10,and that expression of the exogenous PfFT3 promoted the expression of the downstream endogenous flow-ering genes AtSOC1,AtAP1,AtFUL,and AtLFY.This study demonstrates the positive role of PfFT3 in promoting flowering,providing a foundation for further investigation of PfPEBP function and advancing the breeding of early-flowering Perilla frrutescens cultivars.

Multiple thrombosis in the coronary arteries need to be characterized by a thorough determination of the source of the thrombus to distinguish them as thrombosis or coronary embolism.This case was a 38-year-old male patient with chest pain and an electrocardiogram showing acute inferior wall and right ventricular myocardial infarction.Emergency coronary angiography showed thrombosis in the proximal middle of the left anterior descending artery,the opening of the first diagonal artery,and the middle of the right coronary artery,but no obvious stenosis was seen.Postoperative electrocardiogram showed acute inferior wall,right ventricular and anterior wall myocardial infarction,and intensive antithrombotic treatment was applied,elective re-examination of coronary angiography and intraluminal imaging showed mixed plaques and suspicious intimal dissection,indicating the possibility of thrombosis secondary to unstable plaque and coronary dissection,and intensive drug treatment was given.After discharge,the patient was stable during the regular follow-up visits.

Objective To analyze the composition of the aqueous extract of Polygonatum Cyrtonema Hua(PCHE)and evaluate its antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo.Our aim is to provide a theoretical basis for the further development and utilization of Polygonatum Cyrtonema Hua.Methods(1)PCHE was prepared by aqueous extraction,and the chemical composition of PCHE was analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and phenol-sulfuric acid method.The inhibitory activity on tumor cells proliferation of PCHE was detected by CCK-8 assay.Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry,and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2 and Bax was detected by Western Blot.The inhibitory activity of PCHE-containing serum on cell proliferation was detected.(2)A B16 tumor-bearing mice model was constructed and model mice were randomly divided into the model group(saline),the positive drug group(CTX:50 mg·kg-1),and PCHE low-,medium-,and high-dose groups(55.9,111.8,223.6 mg·kg-1),and treated by gavage for 7 days.Changes in body weight and tumor volume of mice were observed during the treatment period.The mice were executed after the treatment,and the histopathological changes of heart,liver,spleen,lung,kidney and tumor were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.The protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in tumor tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Results The polysaccharide content of PCHE reached(10.07±1.3)%,and the flavonoid content was(0.044±0.004)%,and thirty-nine components were detected by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS,which contained antitumor components such as flavonoids(baicalein,quercetin,luteolin and rutin),organic acids(ferulic acid)and polyphenols(gallic acid),etc.PCHE exhibited the inhibitory effects on Hela,A549,4T1,B16,MFC and HepG2 cells,among which the inhibitory effect on B16 cells was the most significant(P＜0.001),and PCHE induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase in B16 cells(P＜0.001).The results of double-staining flow cytometry and Western Blot showed that PCHE significantly promoted apoptosis of B16 cells,decreased the expression of Bcl-2,and promoted the expression of Bax(P＜0.01,P＜0.001).and PCHE constituents absorbed into blood also had an inhibitory effect on B16 cells(P＜0.001).In addition,the results of in vivo activity assay showed that different doses of PCHE could inhibit tumor growth,induce tumor cell necrosis,reduce Bcl-2 expression,and increase Bax expression compared with the model group.Conclusion The ingredients in PCHE are abundant.It contains a variety of antitumor active ingredients,which can inhibit tumor growth,induce tumor cell apoptosis,show strong anti-tumor effects and be worthy of in-depth study.

Objective:To construct a novel chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell targeting CD138 and to investigate its cytotoxicity against myeloma cells.Methods:The hybridoma strain that can stably secrete the CD138 monoclonal antibody (mAb) was prepared and obtained through monoclonal antibody screening technology. The hybridoma strain cells were intraperitoneally injected into mice to produce ascites containing monoclonal antibodies, which were then collected and purified to obtain pure CD138 mAb. Further examinations were performed to assess the biological characteristics of CD138 mAb. The variable region sequence of this antibody was amplified through reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and was used as the antigen recognition domain of CD138 CAR, which was subsequently expressed on the surface of T cells by lentiviral infection. Flow cytometry was employed to assess the phenotype of CD138 CAR-T cells. In vitro cytotoxicity and degranulation assays were performed to evaluate their antitumor effects.Results:① We successfully prepared anti-human CD138 antibody hybridoma cell lines and screened a hybridoma cell strain, 5G2, which could persistently and stably secrete the anti-CD138 antibody. ② The purified CD138 (5G2) mAb can especially recognize CD138 + cells with a binding affinity constant (K D) of 6.011×10 -9 mol/L and showed no significant binding activity with CD138 - cells. ③The variable region sequence of the CD138 (5G2) antibody was obtained using molecular cloning technology, and CD138 (5G2) CAR was successfully constructed and expressed on T cells through lentivirus infection and, concurrently, demonstrated effective binding to recombinant human CD138 protein.④ The proliferation of T cells transduced with the CD138 (5G2) CAR was highly efficient. The phenotype analysis revealed that CD138 (5G2) CAR-T cells exhibited a greater tendency to differentiate into central memory T cells and memory stem T cells, with a reduced proportion of terminally differentiated effector memory subsets. ⑤CD138 (5G2) CAR-T cells demonstrated specific cytotoxicity against CD138 + myeloma cell line H929, whereas CD138 - cell line K562 remained unaffected. The percentage of residual H929 cells was (12.92±8.02) % after co-culturing with CD138 (5G2) CAR-T cells, while (54.25±15.79) % was left in the Vector-T group (E∶T=1∶2; P<0.001). ⑥Results of degranulation assays demonstrated a significant activation of CD138 (5G2) CAR-T cells after co-culture with the H929 cell line, whereas no significant activation was observed in Vector-T cells [ (25.78±3.35) % vs (6.13±1.30) %, P<0.001]. ⑦After co-culturing with CD138 + cells, CD138 (5G2) CAR-T cells exhibited a significant increase in cytokine secretion compared to the Vector-T group [interleukin-2: (1 697.52±599.05) pg/ml vs (5.07±1.17) pg/ml, P<0.001; interferon-γ: (3 312.20±486.38) pg/ml vs (9.28±1.46) pg/ml, P<0.001; and tumor necrosis factor-α: (1 837.43±640.49) pg/ml vs (8.75±1.65) pg/ml, P<0.001]. However, no significant difference was observed in cytokine secretion levels between the two groups after co-culturing with CD138 - cells. Conclusion:This study successfully prepared a novel monoclonal antibody against CD138, and CAR-T cells constructed with the antigen recognition domain derived from this 5G2 mAb demonstrated effective antitumor activity against myeloma cells. This can be used as a new option for the detection of the CD138 antigen and proposes a novel strategy for multiple myeloma immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To observe the clinical effectiveness of unilateral biportal endoscopy(UBE)decompression in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation.Methods 80 patients with lumbar disc herniation who were treated with UBE decompression from January 2021 to March 2022 were collected,and the visual analogue scale(VAS)was applied to assess patient pain,Oswestry disability index(ODI)to assess limb function,and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)score to evaluate patient vertebral body function at the preoperative and postoperative periods of 1 day,3 months,6 months,and 12 months,respectively.Results The mean VAS of the lumbar and back of patients before surgery was(5.72±2.18),(2.74±1.52),(1.92±1.26),(1.73±1.36),and(0.87±0.72)at the 1 day,3 months,6 months,and 12 months after surgery,respectively,with statistical significance(P<0.05).The VAS of the patient's leg decreased from(4.63±2.17)to(4.22±1.91)before and 1 day after surgery,with no significant difference(P>0.05),at 3 months(3.73±1.42),6 months(2.13±1.16),and 12 months(0.76±0.63)after surgery,with statistical significances(P<0.05);The preoperative ODI of the patients was(60.23±8.13)%,and decreased to(41.91±6.53)%,(12.82±4.24)%,(8.19±3.84)%,and(6.75±2.14)%after 1 day,3 months,6 months,and 12 months of follow-up,respectively,with statistical significances(P<0.05).The preoperative JOA scores was(9.08±1.34),1 day after surgery,the score was(10.89±0.88),3 months(13.34±1.25),6 months(15.75±1.24),and 12 months(18.12±1.86)after surgery,with significant improvement in lumbar function(P<0.05).Conclusion UBE decompression can achieve good clinical efficacy in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation,providing another option for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation,which is worth promoting.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective:To investigate the concern about pollen broadcasting in Chinese population from multiple dimensions and to understand the information about allergic rhinitis (AR) in China by analyzing related factors.Methods:From March 1 to September 30, 2022, a large-scale multi-center cross-sectional survey was conducted based on the Questionnaire Star platform in 21 Chinese hospitals. A total of 7 056 subjects from 7 regions in China: Northeast, North, East, Central, South, Southwest, and Northwest China were included. Basic characteristics (including social demographic characteristics and disease characteristics of AR patients), concern about pollen broadcasting, the willingness of pollen-induced AR (PiAR) patients to receive pollen broadcasting, and the treatment satisfaction rate of AR patients were collected. The chi-square test, multivariate linear regression model, and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the concern about pollen broadcasting in the Chinese population and related factors from multiple dimensions.Results:Among 7 056 subjects, 23.02% were concerned about pollen broadcasting. Among 3 176 self-reported AR and 1 019 PiAR patients, 25.60% and 39.16% were concerned about pollen broadcasting, respectively, which was higher than that of non-AR or non-PiAR subjects ( χ2 value was 21.74 and 175.11, respectively, both P<0.001). Among AR patients, the proportion of spring and autumn allergen-positive patients concerned about pollen broadcasting was higher than that in perennial allergen-positive patients ( χ2 value was 20.90 and 19.51, respectively, both P<0.001). The proportion of AR patients with asthma, sinusitis, allergic conjunctivitis, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases was higher than those without complications ( χ2 value was 50.83, 21.97, 56.78, 7.62, respectively, all P<0.05). The proportion of AR patients in North China who could find pollen broadcasting locally was 31.01%, significantly higher than those in other regions (all P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression model analysis showed that among PiAR patients, those with higher per capita household income and higher AR disease cognition levels had been concerned about pollen broadcasting in the past, and those complicated with allergic conjunctivitis had stronger intention to receive pollen broadcasting (B value was 0.24, 0.13, 0.66, 0.47, respectively, all P<0.05). The higher the disease cognition level of PiAR patients, the stronger their willingness to actively participate in treatment ( R2=0.72, P<0.001). Only 18.89% of AR patients felt satisfied with the treatment effect. Logistic regression analysis showed that in AR patients, the treatment satisfaction rate was significantly higher among those concerned about pollen broadcasting compared to those who were not ( OR=1.83, P<0.001). Conclusions:Currently, the dissemination of pollen broadcasting in China is hindered by various factors such as disease cognition level. The treatment satisfaction among AR patients remains unsatisfactory.
