Purpose To investigate the expression pattern of podoplanin in the periglandular fibroblasts and cancer-associ-ated fibroblasts of early-stage colorectal cancer,to analyze its re-lationship with clinicopathological features,and to explore its significance in clinicopathological diagnosis.Methods A total of 166 cases of early-stage colorectal cancer were enrolled.The deepest invasion tissue samples from 166 cases were explored with immunohistochemistry for expression profiling of podopla-nin.According to the expression pattern of analyze in the stroma,Pattern A showed that the periglandular fibroblasts were pole-ori-ented and uniformly expressed podoplanin,and stronger than CAFs around the glands,periglandular fibroblasts completely sur-round the glands;Pattern B showed that the periglandular fibro-blasts were loss of cell polarity,and the staining intensity was less than or equal to CAFs around the glands.And the correlation was also analyzed between the two expression patterns and clini-copathological features.Results Among 166 cases,55 cases were the Pattern A of podoplanin expression and 111 cases were the Pattern B.Monofactor analysis showed statistically significant differences in lymphatic vessel invasion,vascular invasion,bud-ding grade,differentiation degree,infiltration pattern and Kiku-chi classification between the two groups(P＜0.05).Multivari-ate analysis identified that infiltration pattern was an independent factor between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Podo-planin expression patterns are different in the stroma of early colorectal cancer and correlated with risk factors for lymph nodes metastasis.In clinicopathological diagnosis,podoplanin can be used as an auxiliary diagnostic tool to improve the consistency of pathologists'judgment of infiltration forms.

Sepsis is the most common complication of severe burns and a primary risk factor for endangering the lives of critically severe burn patients. The mortality rate of burn sepsis patients was up to 75%. Neutrophils are one of the innate immune cells and are the earliest and most recruited immune cells at the site of infection, which play a key role in the removal of local infection and the repair of damaged tissue. Many studies have deeply revealed the pathogenesis and progression mechanism of burn sepsis, in which the role of neutrophils has gradually become clear. This paper elaborated on the key mechanisms of neutrophils in the occurrence and evolution of burn sepsis, explored the value of neutrophils in the early warning and prognosis judgement, and the potential therapeutic methods of burn sepsis based on the unique biological behavior of neutrophils in burn sepsis.

Objective:To investigate the regulatory effects and mechanism of Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (Nr-CWS) on the biological function of human neutrophils. Methods:The experimental research method was used. Fifteen healthy adult volunteers (7 males and 8 females, aged 24 to 45 years) were recruited from Suzhou Physical Examination Center for physical examination from May to October 2022, the peripheral venous blood was collected, and neutrophils were extracted by immunomagnetic bead sorting. The cells were divided into normal control group without any treatment, Nr-CWS alone group treated with Nr-CWS of final mass concentration 60 ng/mL alone, endotoxin/lipopolysaccharide (LPS) alone group stimulated with LPS of final mass concentration 1 μg/mL alone, and LPS+Nr-CWS group stimulated with LPS first and then treated with Nr-CWS as before. After 1 h of culture, the chemotaxis distance, chemotactic cell percentage, chemotactic index, maximum chemotactic speed, and chemotactic function score of neutrophils were detected using the modified agarose chemotactic model; the proportion and fluorescence intensity of phagocytosis cells, the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the protein expression levels of granular protein CD35, CD66b, and CD63, and the concentrations of inflammatory cytokines of interleukin 2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and interferon-γ in cell culture supernatant were detected by flow cytometry. The number of samples in each group in the above experiments was 15. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for factorial design and independent sample t test. Results:After 1 h of culture, the chemotactic function score of cells in normal control group, Nr-CWS alone group, LPS alone group, and LPS+Nr-CWS group were 15.0, 14.5±0.5, 1.5±0.5, 12.0±1.5, respectively. Compared with those in normal control group, the chemotaxis distance, chemotactic cell percentage, chemotactic index, maximum chemotactic speed, and chemotactic function score of cells were significantly decreased in LPS alone group and LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 18.36, 18.88, 54.28, 18.36, 46.77, 10.58, 14.74, 6.84, 10.58, and 4.24, respectively, P<0.05); compared with those in LPS alone group, the five chemotactic function indexes as above in LPS+Nr-CWS group were significantly increased (with t values of 11.47, 14.65, 11.62, 11.47, and 13.75, respectively, P<0.05). After 1 h of culture, compared with those in normal control group, the proportion and fluorescence intensity of phagocytosis cells were significantly increased in Nr-CWS alone group (with t values of 6.86 and 6.73, respectively, P<0.05), and the above two indexes were significantly decreased in LPS alone group (with t values of 7.35 and 22.72, respectively, P<0.05) and LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 21.37 and 13.10, respectively, P<0.05). After 1 h of culture, compared with that in normal control group, the level of ROS of cells in LPS alone group was significantly increased ( t=6.64, P<0.05); compared with that in LPS alone group, the level of ROS of cells in LPS+Nr-CWS group was significantly decreased ( t=5.46, P<0.05). After 1 h of culture, compared with those in normal control group, the protein expressions of CD35, CD66b, and CD63 of cells were significantly increased in LPS alone group and LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 16.75, 17.45, 10.82, 5.70, 19.35, and 15.37, respectively, P<0.05); compared with those in LPS alone group, the protein expressions of CD35, CD66b, and CD63 of cells were significantly decreased in LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 4.92, 5.72, and 3.18, respectively, P<0.05). After 1 h of culture, compared with those in normal control group, the concentrations of IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, TNF-α, and interferon-γ in cell culture supernatant were significantly increased in LPS alone group (with t values of 22.10, 9.50, 7.21, 10.22, 24.88, 8.43, and 47.48, respectively, P<0.05), and the concentrations of IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, TNF-α, and interferon-γ in cell culture supernatant were significantly increased in LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 4.68, 5.12, 8.02, 5.58, and 7.13, respectively, P<0.05); compared with those in LPS alone group, the concentrations of IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, TNF-α, and interferon-γ in cell culture supernatant were significantly decreased in LPS+Nr-CWS group (with t values of 5.39, 2.83, 5.79, 2.90, 5.87, 4.88, and 39.64, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:Nr-CWS can enhance the phagocytosis ability of neutrophils in normal condition and improve the chemotactic function, ROS level, degranulation protein level, and inflammatory factor level of human neutrophils in infectious condition. Nr-CWS can enhance the anti-infection ability of human neutrophils by regulating its biological behavior in innate immunity.
