Objective : To explore the effect and mechanism of CD151 on vascular permeability by regulating vesicle internalization and recycling. Methods: Wild-type mice and CD151 knockout mice were divided into WT-con group, WT-model group, KO-con group and KO-model group, with 6 mice in each group. WT-model group and KO-model group were intraperitoneally injected with LPS to prepare sepsis ALI model, and WT-con group and KO-con group were intraperitoneally injected with phosphate buffer saline(PBS) as a control. 24 h after modeling, pulmonary vascular permeability was measured by Miles test. The siRNA silencing CD151 expression(si-CD151) and negative control si-NC were transfected into EA.hy 926 cells. The permeability of endothelial cell layer to FITC-dextran at different time points was observed under basic conditions and vascular endothelial growth factor-A(VEGF-A) stimulation conditions. Transcriptome sequencing of endothelial cells in si-CD151 group and si-NC group; the distribution and internalization of CD151 in each group were measured using immunofluorescence. Western blot and real-time quantitative RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of VE-cadherin in si-CD151 groupand other groups. The distribution and internalization of VE-cadherin in each group were measured using immunofluorescence. Results : Miles experiment results indicated that dye exudation in lung tissue of WT-model group was significantly higher than that of WT-con group(P<0.01). The dye exudation in the lung tissue of KO-model group increased compared with WT-model group(P<0.05). The results of endothelial cell layer permeability test showed that the permeability of FITC-dextran in si-CD151 group was significantly higher than that in control group after VEGF-A stimulation for 30, 60 and 120 min(P<0.05). Transcriptome sequencing results suggested that CD151 in endothelial cells was closely related to vesicle-mediated transport. Compared with other groups, protein and mRNA levels of VE-cadherin in CD151 knockdown endothelial cells was significantly lower(allP<0.01). The immunofluorescence assay demonstrated that after VEGF-A stimulation, the decrease of CD151 expression significantly impaired the expression of VE-cadherin at cell-cell contacts and reduced the CD151-VE-cadherin colocalization in the perinuclear region compared with other groups. Conclusion The absence of CD151 affects the internalization and recycling of endothelial cell vesicles, affects the expression and internalization of VE-cadherin, and then influences vascular permeability.

Traditional Chinese medicine holds that chemotherapy drugs belong to “medicinal toxins”， which are fierce in nature， and while killing tumor cells， they also damage human vitality， firstly disturbing spleen and stomach functions. Based on LI Gao's theory that “fire and original qi are restricted to each other， and one wins while the other loses”， it is believed that the balance between fire and original qi is the guarantee to maintain the material and energy metabolism of the body. As the driving force of human life activities， original qi is the “yang qi” that dominates the qi of the whole body. When the function of spleen and stomach is impaired， and the replenishment of acquired source is insufficient， there will be deficiency of yang qi and hyperactivity of yin fire， manifested as various adverse reactions of the body after chemotherapy. Following the treatment principle of tonifying the spleen and stomach and lifting yang qi， it is recommended to use sweet and warm medicinals to remove heat， and take formulas such as Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤） and Danggui Buxue Decoction （当归补血汤） to treat various post-chemotherapy adverse reactions mainly manifested as fire pathogen damaging fluid and consuming qi， yin deficiency and fire exuberance， alleviate related symptoms， which can not only ensure adequate chemotherapy cycle， but also improve the anti-tumor effect， and improve the quality of life of patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect and mechanism of Sishenjian on synovial lesions induced by monosodium iodoacetate （MIA） in rats with knee osteoarthritis （KOA）. MethodSixty female Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into the following six groups： normal group， model group， celecoxib group， and high-， medium-， and low-dose Sishenjian group. The KOA rat model was established by intra-articular injection of MIA. Celecoxib （18 mg·kg^-1） and Sishenjian （14.4， 7.2， 3.6 g·kg^-1） were administered by gavage according to the groups. All rats were euthanized after four weeks of continuous administration. The transverse diameter of the bilateral knee joints of rats was measured， and gross observation of the knee joint was performed. Pathological changes in knee joint synovial tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and picrosirius red staining. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGFA） in synovial tissue. The levels of inflammatory cytokines in the joint synovial fluid were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to detect the expression of mRNA and proteins related to the transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）/Smad2/3 pathway in knee joint synovium. ResultCompared with the normal group， the transverse diameter of the knee joint in the model group significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the transverse diameter of the knee joint in rats of each Sishenjian group significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the expression levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the knee joint synovial fluid of model group significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the knee joint synovial fluid of rats in each Sishenjian group significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the expression levels of TGF-β₁， Smad2/3， phosphorylation（p）-Smad2/3， type Ⅰ collagen α1 （ColⅠ_α1）， type Ⅲ collagen α1 （ColⅢ_α1）， VEGFA proteins and TGF-β₁， Smad2/3， ColⅠ_α1， ColⅢ_α1 mRNA in knee joint synovium of model group significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression levels of TGF-β₁， Smad2/3， phosphorylation （p）-Smad2/3， ColⅠ_α1， ColⅢ_α1， VEGFA proteins and TGF-β₁， Smad2/3， ColⅠ_α1， ColⅢ_α1 mRNA in knee joint synovium of rats in each Sishenjian group significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSishenjian can inhibit synovial inflammation and angiogenesis， and may become a potential drug for treating synovial lesions in KOA by regulating the TGF-β₁/Smad2/3 pathway.

AIM:To study whether glycyrrhizic acid(GL)can resist the ototoxicity of cisplatin(CDDP)in mice and its molecular mechanism.METHODS:Male C57BL/6J mice were divided into 5 groups:control group,DMSO(5%)group,CDDP(4 mg/kg)group,CDDP+low-dose(50 mg/kg)GL group,and CDDP+high-dose(100 mg/kg)GL group(n=14).Auditory brainstem response(ABR)was used to detect hearing changes of mice.HE staining was used to observe the morphological change of cochlear stria vascular in mice.Evans blue(EB)staining was used to observe the per-meability change of the blood-labyrinth barrier(BLB).Immunohistochemical technique was used to detect the expression and distribution of adhesion protein VE-cadherin and tight junction protein ZO-1 on the cochlear stria.ELISA assay and immunofluorescence technology were employed to detect the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleu-kin-1β(1L-1β).RESULTS:In CDDP group,ABR waveforms of all frequencies were disturbed,the hearing threshold was significantly increased,and I wave latency was prolonged(P＜0.05).In CDDP+GL group,ABR waveforms of various frequencies were well differentiated,the hearing threshold was significantly decreased,and the latency of I-wave was shortened(P＜0.01).The disordered morphology and more vacuoles in the stria vascularis were observed by HE staining in CDDP group.The GL alleviated CDDP-induced damage in the stria vascularis.In EB staining,CDDP caused an increase in per-meability of BLB(P＜0.01),which was improved by GL treatment(P＜0.01).Immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of VE-cadherin and ZO-1 in CDDP group were decreased(P＜0.01),which was restored in CDDP+GL group(P＜0.01).The ELISA and immunofluorescence results showed that the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α was in-creased after CDDP treatment(P＜0.01),which was restored in CDDP+GL group(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:The GL alleviates CDDP-induced hearing loss in mice by inhibiting CDDP-induced inflammation and reducing the permeability of BLB.

A 28-year-old woman was found to have coagulation factor Ⅷ activity (FⅧ∶C) <1% and von Willebrand factor antigen (VWF∶Ag) <1% during routine prenatal examinations. No pathogenic variation was found in the exon region of the VWF gene using next-generation sequencing. The clinical presentation of this patient does not match the clinical characteristics of type Ⅲ hemophilia [von Willebrand disease (VWD) ]; therefore, third-generation sequencing technology was used to perform whole-genome sequencing on the patient and her family members. Multiple members of the patient’s paternal family carried a heterozygous variant of VPS33B, c.869G>C. The family members carrying this variant all had varying degrees of reduced VWF levels (39% -56% ). Moreover, the proband was detected with the heterozygous variant c.1474dupA in GP1BA. The ACMG and Clinvar databases determined that this variation was associated with platelet-type pseudo VWD. The decrease in VWF levels caused by heterozygous variations in VPS33B in families is the first international report, and no previous studies have reported cases of severe decrease in plasma VWF levels caused by double heterozygous variations in VPS33B and GP1BA.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab monoclonal antibody combined with molecular-targeted therapy in elderly patients with unresectable or advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the patients with unresectable/advanced HCC who attended six hospitals from January 1,2019 to March 31,2021,and all patients received camrelizumab monoclonal antibody treatment,among whom 84.8%also received targeted therapy.According to the age of the patients,they were divided into elderly group(≥65 years)and non-elderly group(＜65 years).The two groups were assessed in terms of overall survival(OS),progression-free survival(PFS),objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),and immune-related adverse events(irAE).The chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups;the independent samples t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data,and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups.The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis,and the log-rank test was used for comparison of survival curves.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to determine the independent influencing factors for PFS and DCR at 6 months.Results A total of 99 HCC patients were enrolled,with 27 in the elderly group and 72 in the non-elderly group.The elderly group had an OS rate of 67.8%,an ORR of 44.4%,and a DCR of 74.1%at 12 months and a median PFS of 6.4(95%confidence interval[CI]:3.0-12.4)months,with no significant differences compared with the non-elderly group(all P＞0.05).The median OS was unavailable for the elderly group,while the non-elderly group had an OS of 18.9(95%CI:13.0-24.8)months;there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.485).The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that major vascular invasion(MVI)was an independent risk factor for PFS(hazard ratio[HR]=2.603,95%CI:1.136-5.964,P=0.024)and DCR(HR=3.963,95%CI:1.671-9.397,P=0.002)at 6 months,while age,sex,etiology of HBV infection,presence of extrahepatic metastasis,Child-Pugh class B,and alpha-fetoprotein＞400 ng/mL were not associated with PFS or DCR at 6 months.For the elderly group,the incidence rates of any irAE and grade 3/4 irAE were 51.9%and 25.9%,respectively,with no significant differences compared with the non-elderly group(P＞0.05),and skin disease was the most common irAE in both groups(39.4%).Conclusion Camrelizumab monoclonal antibody combined with molecular-targeted therapy has similar efficacy and safety in patients with unresectable/advanced HCC aged≥65 years and those aged＜65 years.MVI is associated with suboptimal response to immunotherapy and poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) with or without C3 deposition.Methods:Clinical and pathological data of 576 patients with IMN diagnosed in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into C3 deposition group and non-C3 deposition group according to the immunofluorescence staining of C3. The clinical and pathological characteristics were compared between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the prognosis of the two groups.Results:A total of 576 IMN patients (male 364 (63.20%)) were enrolled, including 400 patients (69.44%) with C3 deposition and 176 patients (30.56%) without C3 deposition. Compared with the non-C3 deposition group, the levels of total blood cholesterol ( t=0.94, P=0.002) and the proportion of phospholipase A2 receptor ( χ2=9.99, P=0.002), IgG ( χ2=10.67, P=0.001), IgM ( χ2=7.00, P=0.008), IgA ( χ2=7.87, P=0.005) and C1q ( χ2=8.28, P=0.004) depositions in renal tissues was higher in C3 deposition group, while the levels of serum C3 ( t=2.87, P=0.004), albumin ( t=3.57, P<0.001) and IgG ( Z=3.55, P<0.001) were lower in C3 deposition group. There were no significant differences in other clinicopathological indicators between the two groups. The survival analysis was performed in 460 patients who were followed for>6 months, including 319 cases (69.35%) of C3 deposition and 141 cases (30.65%) of non-C3 deposition. The end point event was defined as an eGFR decline>30% or entry into end stage renal disease (ESRD). There was no statistically significant difference in treatment method between the two groups ( P>0.05). The median follow-up time was 22 (13,32) months, 327 (71.09%) patients achieved remission, and 22 patients had renal end-point events. Compared with the non-C3 deposition group, the proportion of urinary protein remission was lower ( χ2=10.85, P<0.05), the incidence of renal end-point events was higher ( χ2=5.05, P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients with C3 deposition had a lower cumulative remission rate (Log-rank χ2=6.68, P=0.010), and a lower cumulative renal survival than those without C3 deposition had ( χ2=5.42, P=0.020). Conclusions:Compared with patients without C3 deposition, IMN patients with C3 deposition have more severe clinical and pathological changes, lower renal cumulative remission rate, and are more likely to have poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibody (SAb) combined with glomerular complement C3 (GC3) deposition and clinicopathologic features and prognosis in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN).Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. The patients diagnosed with IMN in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from July 1, 2019 to April 30, 2022 were enrolled, and the clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed. The patients were divided into negative SAb and negative GC3 (SAb -/GC3 -) group, negative SAb and positive GC3 (SAb -/GC3 +) group, positive SAb and negative GC3 (SAb +/GC3 -) group and positive SAb and positive GC3 (SAb +/GC3 +) group according to the status of SAb titer and GC3 deposition. Clinical and pathological characteristics among the groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the cumulative renal remission rates of different groups. Cox regression analysis model was used to analyze the related factors of renal remission. Results:A total of 143 IMN patients aged (53.35±12.34) years old were included in the study, including 94 males (65.7%). There were 17 patients (11.9%) in the SAb -/GC3 - group, 30 patients (21.0%) in the SAb -/GC3 + group, 19 patients (13.3%) in the SAb +/GC3 - group, and 77 patients (53.8%) in the SAb +/GC3 + group. Compared with SAb -/GC3 - group, the level of serum albumin was lower in the SAb +/GC3 + group, and the level of 24 h urine protein, SAb titer, and the proportions of glomerular anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antigen and renal tubule atrophy were higher in the SAb +/GC3 + group (all P<0.05). After 26.0 (19.0, 36.0) months of follow-up, a total of 96 patients (67.1%) attained remission. The proportion of patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy in the SAb +/GC3 + group was higher than that in the SAb -/GC3 - group [93.5% (72/77) vs. 70.6% (12/17), fisher value=8.974, P=0.016] and the proportion of renal remission rate in the SAb +/GC3 + group was lower than that in the SAb -/GC3 - group [49.4% (38/77) vs. 100% (17/17), χ2=25.438, P<0.001]. Kaplan-Meier survival curve result showed that the cumulative renal remission rate in the SAb +/GC3 + group was significantly lower than that in the SAb -/GC3 - group (Log-rank χ2=31.538, P<0.01). Multivariate Cox regression analysis result showed that 24 h urine protein level ( HR=0.891, 95% CI 0.803-0.988, P=0.029), SAb titer ( HR=0.996, 95% CI 0.992-1.000, P=0.042) and SAb +/GC3 + (with SAb -/GC3 - group as reference, HR=0.414, 95% CI 0.204-0.827, P=0.013) were independent related factors for renal remission in patients with IMN. Conclusions:IMN patients with positive SAb and GC3 deposition have more severe clinical and pathological changes, lower renal cumulative remission rates, and are more likely to have poor prognosis. The combined assessment of SAb and GC3 deposition may be helpful for evaluating prognosis and guiding treatment in IMN patients.
