Objective:To summarize the application rules of acupuncture and moxibustion in the clinical trials for dysmenorrhea and endometriosis.Methods:The relevant articles of clinical research on acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of dysmenorrhea in endometriosis were retrieved electronically from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, PubMed and Cochrane Library (Retrieved from database establishment until 31 October 2021). The clinical literatures that met the inclusion criteria were included into the database (Microsoft Office Excel 2019), and the main table and sub-table were established through Microsoft Office Excel 2019. Descriptive statistic analysis was performed by using SPSS 26.0 software. StataSE15 (64-bit) software was used to analyze the correlation between the combinations of acupoints with single acupoint frequency>5.Results:A total of 40 clinical studies were included. Of them, the top 3 acupuncture methods according to the frequency were acupuncture (11 times), moxibustion (11 times), and electro-acupuncture (8 times), the top 3 acupuncture points used according to the frequency were Guan Yuan (34 times), San Yin Jiao (26 times), and Zhong Ji (25 times), the top 3 meridians of the body acupuncture points according to the frequency were Ren Meridian (36 times), Spleen Meridian (32 times), and Stomach Meridian (22 times). According to the correlation analysis, body points of Guan Yuan, San Yin Jiao, Uterus, Qi Hai and Zhong Ji were stronge related.Conclusion:Acupuncture can effectively treat EMT dysmenorrhea with less adverse reactions. The methods are mainly acupuncture, moxibustion and electroacupuncture, mostly local acupoints, intersection acupoints and empirical acupoints.

Protein corona (PC) has been identified to impede the transportation of intravenously injected nanoparticles (NPs) from blood circulation to their targeted sites. However, how intestinal PC (IPC) affects the delivery of orally administered NPs are still needed to be elucidated. Here, we found that IPC exerted "positive effect" or "negative effect" depending on different pathological conditions in the gastrointestinal tract. We prepared polystyrene nanoparticles (PS) adsorbed with different IPC derived from the intestinal tract of healthy, diabetic, and colitis rats (H-IPC@PS, D-IPC@PS, C-IPC@PS). Proteomics analysis revealed that, compared with healthy IPC, the two disease-specific IPC consisted of a higher proportion of proteins that were closely correlated with transepithelial transport across the intestine. Consequently, both D-IPC@PS and C-IPC@PS mainly exploited the recycling endosome and ER-Golgi mediated secretory routes for intracellular trafficking, which increased the transcytosis from the epithelium. Together, disease-specific IPC endowed NPs with higher intestinal absorption. D-IPC@PS posed "positive effect" on intestinal absorption into blood circulation for diabetic therapy. Conversely, C-IPC@PS had "negative effect" on colitis treatment because of unfavorable absorption in the intestine before arriving colon. These results imply that different or even opposite strategies to modulate the disease-specific IPC need to be adopted for oral nanomedicine in the treatment of variable diseases.

Objective:To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of two children with a clinical diagnosis of Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS).Methods:Whole-exome sequencing was used to screen potential variants in the two children. Confirmation of suspected variants was performed through Sanger sequencing , multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification and real-time PCR in probands and their parents.Results:A heterozygous deletion variant, c. 4357_4360delGAAA, was detected in case one, while was de novo and verified by Sanger sequencing. Thevariant was classified as pathogenic(PVS1 + PM2+ PM6)according to ACMG guideline. The heterozygous deletion of exon 1-7 was seen in the same gene in case 2, which MLPA verified as heterozygous deletion of exon 1-6. This deletion was inherited from the father with a normal phenotype, and the father’s TCOF1 gene was suspected to be chimeric heterozygous deletion of exon 1-6 verified by MLPA. Conclusion:The identified variants in the TCOF1 gene probably underlie the two cases of TCS. There was no apparent correlation between genotype and phenotype. In addition, it shows a high interfamilial variability ranging from normal to full presentation of TCS. Genetic detection provided clinical diagnosis and genetic counselling for TCS patients .

Objective:To evaluate the teaching effectiveness of independent experimental design from students' active learning behavior, and further provide the basis for advancing the reform of functional experimental teaching and teaching quality.Methods:In June 2019, 186 undergraduates (5-year-programme and 8-year-programme) of Xiangya School of Medicine were included in the teaching research. Self-administered questionnaires were applied to characterize students' active learning behavior in independent experimental design education. Spearman rank correlation analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used in the study. SPSS 23.0 was used for descriptive analysis of the data.Results:During the independent experimental design, 85.0%(158/186) of the students thought it was necessary and important to conduct independent experimental design education; 72.6%(135/186) of the students tentatively raised new scientific questions; 97.8%(182/186) of the students actively searched literature; 77.4%(144/186) of the students participated in reply positively. The value of correlation coefficient of actively learning behavior "tentatively raising new science questions" and teaching effectiveness "improving the ability of scientific thinking" was 0.81. And only 42.5%(79/186) of the students agreed that students needed to summarize after reporting.Conclusion:Independent experimental design education is welcomed and widely accepted by students, which has effectively improved the capacity for scientific research and innovation spirit of students. Whether students' active learning behavior can be fully mobilized in the education practice is closely related to the teaching effect. And the cultivation of leadership and leading consciousness still need to be improved.

Targeted programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and CXC chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4), gene sequences encoding anti-PD-L1 nanobody and anti-CXCR4 nanobody were cloned into the pET-22b (+) vector to construct recombinant expression plasmid of anti-PD-L1&CXCR4 bispecific nanobody, which was connected with 6 × His tag and transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3). The expressed proteins were then found to exist as a soluble form in the supernatant of bacterial lysate after induction of IPTG.Three purification methods were used to obtain the target protein in order to improve the yield and purity of the bispecific nanobody.The bacterial supernatant was separated and purified by His Trap FF affinity chromatographic column.The target protein output could exceed 1 mg/L, and the product purity could reach up to 97%.Besides, the anti-PD-L1&CXCR4 bispecific nanobody shows a specific binding ability to two antigens on the cell surface, enhancing the cytotoxicity of IL-2 activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to tumor cell line AsPC-1, which lays the foundation for further evaluation of its drug efficacy in vivo.

Objective:To investigate the role and significance of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in regulating macrophage polarization on seawater-drowning-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice.Methods:Raw 264.7 cells were divided into four groups. The control group was not stimulated with artificial seawater (SW), while the SW 8 h group, SW 24 h group, and SW 72 h group stimulated with artificial seawater for 8 h, 24 h, and 72 h, respectively. The morphological changes of cells were observed, the apoptosis, the contents of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and HO-1 protein were detected. Hmox1 flox/ floxCre+ /- and Hmox1 -/- (HO-1 M-KO) mice with conditional knockout of HO-1 gene in alveolar macrophages were produced and randomly divided into HO-1 flox/flox Control group, HO-1 flox/flox SW 24 h group, HO-1 M-KO Control group, and HO-1 M-KO SW 24 h Group, with 6 mice in each group. The mouse model of seawater-drowning-induced ALI was established by placing mice in a hollow container and then immersing them in 6 cm deep and (25±2)℃ artificial seawater for 28 s. Samples were taken 24 hours after seawater drowning to carry out alveolar lavage, and then the total cell counts and protein concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and the pathological changes and the iNOS protein content in lung tissues were observed. Results:Abnormally shaped Raw 264.7 cells increased while the total number of Raw 264.7 cells decreased after seawater stimulation. The apoptosis rates of the control group, SW 8 h group, SW 24 h group, and SW 72 h group were increased to (5.99±0.23)%, (16.71±1.16)%, (41.80±2.50)%, and (77.84±1.59)%, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The contents of HO-1 protein in the control group, SW 8 h group, SW 24 h group, and SW 72 h group were (1.07±0.06), (1.42±0.01), (2.77±0.22), and (0.99±0.10), respectively, and the contents of HO-1 protein of both SW 8 h group and SW 24 h group increased significantly ( P<0.05). The contents of iNOS protein in the cells of the control group, SW 8 h group, SW 24 h group, and SW 72 h group were (0.94±0.10), (3.44±0.32), (1.52±0.09), and (2.26±0.11), respectively, and the contents of iNOS protein of SW 8 h group, SW 24 h group, and SW 72 h group increased significantly ( P<0.05); compared with the SW 8 h group, the HO-1 protein content increased significantly, while the iNOS protein content decreased in the SW 24 h group significantly ( P<0.01). Lung tissue injury in HO-1 M-KO mice was significantly aggravated after drowning. The cavity of pulmonary alveoli collapsed and shrunk, intra-alveolar hemorrhage occurred, alveolar septum thickened, and inflammatory cell infiltration aggravated. The cell number and protein concentration in BALF significantly increased ( P<0.01), and the iNOS content in lung tissue significantly increased( P<0.01). Conclusion:HO-1 can alleviate the seawater-drowning-induced ALI in mice by inhibiting the M1 macrophage polarization.

Objective:To investigate the role of NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in lung injury caused by seawater drowning in mice.Methods:A total of 48 6-8 weeks old male wild-type C57 mice were randomly divided into two groups for experiment: (1) control group, day 1 group after drowning(Day1), day 3 group after drowning(Day3) and day 7 group after drowning(Day7) to determine the time point of seawater drowning; (2) control group, seawater drowning model group(SW), dimethyl fumarate treatment group(DMF) and seawater drowning+ DMF reatment group(SW+ DMF) to determine the role of Nrf2 in lung injury in mice caused by drowning, 6 mice per group. And 12 male C57 background Nrf2 knockout mice (Nrf2 KO) at 6-8 weeks old were divided into Nrf2 KO control group and Nrf2 KO+ seawater drowning group; 6 mice in each group. Three days after the drowning model was established, we observed the gross morphology and the pathological changes of the lung tissue, calculated the wet-to-dry weight ratio of the lungs, and tested the reduced glutathione and malondialdehyde levels.Results:Seawater drowning caused alveolar space rupture, pulmonary hemorrhage and pulmonary edema in mice. Compared with the wild-type mice, knockout of Nrf2 aggravated lung injury and oxidative stress in mice caused by seawater drowning. Nrf2 agonist DMF treatment significantly improved lung injury in mice, increased the reduced glutathione content, and decreased malondialdehyde level.Conclusion:The activation of Nrf2 can relieve lung injury and oxidative stress levels in mice caused by seawater drowning, which can play an important role in reducing lung damage caused by seawater drowning.
