Objective To establish a high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)method for determining the plasma concentration of olverembatinib in leukemia patients,apply it to clinical drug monitoring,and provide reliable basis for rational drug use in clinical practice.Methods Ponatinib-d8 was used as an internal standard,and methanol was used to precipitate plasma proteins and extract olverembatinib.The chromatographic column was Welch Ultimate XB-C18 cloumn(50 mmx4.6 mm,5 μm),with a column temperature of 60 ℃.The mobile phase consisted of an aqueous solution(containing 0.1％formic acid+2 mmol/L ammonium acetate)-methanol solution(containing 0.1％formic acid),with a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and gradient elution.Electrospray positive ion mode was used,with multiple reaction monitoring scanning.The quantitative ion pair of olverembatinib was m/z 533.3→260.1,the qualitative ion pair was m/z 533.3→433.3,and the internal standard ion pair was m/z 541.1 →260.2.The plasma samples of 40 leukemia patients taking olverembatinib were monitored and analyzed for concentration,and IBM SPSS Statistics 27.0 and OriginPro 2021 softwares were used for statistical analysis of the results.Results The linear range of olverembatinib was 1-250 ng/mL(r=0.998 0),the lower limit of quantification was 1 ng/mL,the extraction recovery rate was 100.28％～101.27％,the intra-day precision RSD was 1.15％～3.87％,and the inter-day precision RSD was 2.32％～3.68％.Conclusion This method is easy to operate,highly specific and sensitive,and can be used to determine the blood concentration of olverembatinib in leukemia patients.

With the recent upsurge of studies in the field of microbiology, we have learned more about the complexity of the gastrointestinal microecosystem. More than 30 genera and 1000 species of gastrointestinal microflora have been found. The structure of the normal microflora is relatively stable, and is in an interdependent and restricted dynamic equilibrium with the body. In recent years, studies have shown that there is a potential relationship between gastrointestinal microflora imbalance and gastric cancer (GC) and precancerous lesions. So, restoring the balance of gastrointestinal microflora is of great significance. Moreover, intervention in gastric premalignant condition (GPC), also known as precancerous lesion of gastric cancer (PLGC), has been the focus of current clinical studies. The holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is consistent with the microecology concept, and oral TCM can play a two-way regulatory role directly with the microflora in the digestive tract, restoring the homeostasis of gastrointestinal microflora to prevent canceration. However, large gaps in knowledge remain to be addressed. This review aims to provide new ideas and a reference for clinical practice.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the main regulator of physiological angiogenesis during embryonic development, bone growth, and reproductive function, and it also participates in a series of pathological changes. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), with a history of more than 2000 years, has been widely used in clinical practice, while the exploration of its mechanisms has only begun. This review summarizes the research of recent years on the influence of TCM on VEGF. It is found that many Chinese medicines and recipes have a regulatory effect on VEGF, indicating that Chinese medicine has broad prospects as a complementary and alternative therapy, providing new treatment ideas for clinical applications and the theoretical basis for research on the mechanisms of TCM.

The dihydrofolate reductase (dhfr) and dihydropteroate synthetase (dhps) genes of Plasmodium vivax, as antifolate resistance-associated genes were used for drug resistance surveillance. A total of 375 P. vivax isolates collected from different geographical locations in China in 2009-2019 were used to sequence Pvdhfr and Pvdhps. The majority of the isolates harbored a mutant type allele for Pvdhfr (94.5%) and Pvdhps (68.2%). The most predominant point mutations were S117T/N (77.7%) in Pvdhfr and A383G (66.8%) in Pvdhps. Amino acid changes were identified at nine residues in Pvdhfr. A quadruple-mutant haplotype at 57, 58, 61, and 117 was the most frequent (57.4%) among 16 distinct Pvdhfr haplotypes. Mutations in Pvdhps were detected at six codons, and the double-mutant A383G/A553G was the most prevalent (39.3%). Pvdhfr exhibited a higher mutation prevalence and greater diversity than Pvdhps in China. Most isolates from Yunnan carried multiple mutant haplotypes, while the majority of samples from temperate regions and Hainan Island harbored the wild type or single mutant type. This study indicated that the antifolate resistance levels of P. vivax parasites were different across China and molecular markers could be used to rapidly monitor drug resistance. Results provided evidence for updating national drug policy and treatment guidelines.

Objective To detect and analyze the HBV?related indexes in the urine of HBV transgenic mice and further understand the biological characteristics of transgenic mice, and to clarify the tissue sources of HBV?related indexes. Methods HBV?related indexes in the urine of transgenic mice were tested using enzyme?linked immune sorbent assay ( ELISA ) and fluorescence quantitative PCR ( real?time RCR ) . The tissue sources were confirmed by several experiments, i. e. hydrodynamic transfection of mice, RNA interference to inhibit HBV?expression in the transgenic mice, and to infect normal mice with HBV?positive serum from patients. Results Expression of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV?DNA was present in the urine of transgenic mice, of which the HBsAg expression level was high (6674 ± 619?8 IU/mL), but lower than that in the serum (16470 ± 2704 IU/mL). The level of HBsAg expression in the urine of male mice was higher than that in female mice. The level of HBeAg expression in the urine was lower and the HBeAg positive rate of urine was higher than that of blood, and the levels of HBeAg expression showed significant inter?individual and inter?sexual differences. HBV?DNA level reached 103 -105 copy/mL in the urine, but no related antibody expression was detected. The experiments such as hydrodynamic infection test indicated that the HBV?related indexes in the urine are derived from replication in the kidneys rather than secreted from the liver, entered into the blood circulation, and discharged from the urine. The kidneys are an independent expression site of HBV. Conclusions The expression of HBV?related indexes is present in the urine of transgenic mice and it is a long?term expression along with the age in months, of which the expression levels of HBsAg and HBV?DNA are rather high and stable. HBsAg titer in the urine of the male mice is higher than that of female mice. HBeAg expression level in the male mice is more stable compared with that in female mice. No expressions of various kinds of antibodies have been found in the urine. The kidneys are an independent expression site of HBV.

Objective To compare the treatment effects between improved micro-laparoscopic hernia sac high ligation and traditional hernia sac high ligation.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted.A total of 200 pediatric patients diagnosed with inguinal hernia in our hospital from 2013 to 2014,ranging in age from 8 months to 14 years,were enrolled and divided into observational group and control group (n=100) The two groups received improved-micro-laparoscopic hernia sac high ligation and traditional hernia sac high ligation respectively.We recorded intraoperative blood loss,operative incision length and operation time during the operation,and hospitalization time,pain time and total cost after the operation.Recurrence rate and complication were followed up for 6 months.Treatment effects were compared between these two groups.Results Smaller incision length,less blood loss and postoperative pain,shorter operative time and hospitalization time and lower recurrence rate were found in observational group and they were of statistical significance (P＜0.05).Conclusion Improved-micro-laparoscopic hernia sac high ligation for pediatric inguinal hernia shows better treatment effect,lower recurrence rate and better prognosis and it is an ideal approach.

Objective To observe the NTBC dependence of Fah-knockout mice and study the biological characteristics in order to use the model more effectively.Methods Examine the progressive changes in body weight, survival time, liver pathology and serological markers after the NTBC withdrawal.Results After removing of NTBC, Fah-knockout mice lost their body weight gradually, and finally died in 5 to 7 weeks, along with increased serum ALT, AST levels and deformation of the hepatocytes.Conclusions Fah-knockout mice have a strong drug dependence of NTBC and could be the ideal model to hereditary tyrosinemia type I and other liver injury.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of D-galactosamine (D-GaIN) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on liver tissue regeneration and repair in mice following liver injury induced by partial hepatectomy.

METHODSA total of 40 male BALB/c mice were randomly assigned into 2 equal groups to receive intraperitoneal injections of D-GaIN (500 mg/kg) plus LPS (50 µg/kg, given 1 h later) or two doses of saline 24 h prior to 1/3 hepatectomy. The liver weight/body weight (LW/BW) ratio and liver regeneration rate were observed at different time points after partial hepatectomy. Liver cell injury was assessed using HE staining, hepatocyte proliferation evaluated with BrdU staining, and the oval cell proliferation observed with immunohistochemistry.

RESULTSIn mice receiving saline injection, the liver volume was nearly restored 9 days after partial hepatectomy, while in mice with D-GaIN and LPS injections, the liver failed to recover the normal volume even at 14 days, showing a significant difference in the liver regeneration rate between them [(22.6∓105.93)% vs (9.49∓32.55)%, P<0.001]. Significant degenerative changes of the hepatic cells were found in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group, while only mild inflammatory reaction was observed in saline-treated group after partial hepatectomy. Obvious hepatocyte proliferation was observed at day 7 in saline-treated group but not in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group. Oval cell proliferation in the portal area occurred 3 days after partial hepatectomy in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group.

CONCLUSIOND-GaIN and LPS can obviously inhibit hepatocyte regeneration after liver injury in mice. D-GaIN and LPS combined with partial hepatectomy can induce oval cell proliferation.

ObjectiveTo study the characteristics and explore risk factors of traffic injuries in Wenzhou part of the Ningbo-Taizhou-Wenzhou (Yong-tai-wen for short) highway during 2005-2009 so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting prevention and cure level of highway traffic injury.Methods The original data of traffic accident in Wenzhou part of the Yong-tai-wen highway during 2005-2009 were collected to carry out the descriptive epidemiological investigation of the injury characteristics.Simultaneously,multi-factor analysis was conducted to screen out the risk factors for traffic accidents.Results A total of 308 traffic accidents involving 603 casualties (157 deaths) were interviewed during 2005-2009.The casualties from expressway traffic accidents declined yearly,but annual death rate was still very high (26.04％).Meanwhile,the males were more likely subjected to traffic injuries than females.The most common injury sites were the head and limb and the main fatal injuries were the head and pelvic injuries.Accident-prone period was from 0:00 to 8:00 in the morning and traffic scenarios were mainly characterized by rear collision (39％).Risk factors for traffic accidents included poor lighting conditions,overloaded vehicles on the road sections,male drivers,driving without a license,fatigue driving and speeding.ConclusionsTraffic accidents present high incidence and casualty rates,and are mainly resulted from overloaded and fatigue driving.Therefore,the training and education on safe driving should be done particularly for the males and low driving age drivers to strictly forbid the overload driving,fatigue driving or overspeed driving.

ObjectiveTo research the hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication and immune tolerance status of transgenic mice for elucidating the pathogenesis of hepatitis B and evaluating new drugs against HBV.Methods SPE grade HBsAg negative nontransgenic and transgenic mice with the same genetic background were recruited in this study.HBsAg,HBeAg and HBV DNA were detected by chemiluminescent method.Pre-S1 and HBcAg were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbont assay (ELISA).Liver pathology was examined and HBsAg expressions at different stages were determined by immunohistochemical staining.The lymphocyte proliferation of mice was detected by flow cytometry and interferon (IFN)γ-producing T lymphocytes was determined by enzyme linked immunospot (ELISPOT).The expressions of Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR9 in splenocyte suspension and splenic dendrite cells (DC) were determined by double-labeling immunofluorescence.The data were analyzed by t test and F test.ResultsHBsAg,preS1,HBeAg,HBcAg were expressed and HBV DNA was replicated in HBV transgenic mice,while anti-HBs,anti-HBc,and anti-HBe were all negative.There were no obvious pathological changes in liver tissues.HBsAg was expressed in cytoplasm and HBcAg in nucleus of hepatocytes.After stimulated with HBsAg,T lymphocyte proliferation capacity of HBV transgenic mice was (697.6±67.3) cpm,which was much lower than that of nontransgenic mice [( 1315.5 ±191.6) cpm].The number of spot forming cells of IFNγ-producing splenocytes from transgenic mice after HBsAg stimulation was 8.25 ± 1.10,which was obviously lower than that of nontransgenic mice (28.50±4.21) (F=155.967,P=0.000).The expressions of CD11c+,TLR2 and TLR9 on DC from both HBV transgenic and nontransgenic mice were not different significantly (all P＞0.05).The HBsAg expressions in liver tissues were observed in 18-day-old fetal mice and 1-day-old newborn mice.ConclusionsThe HBV transgenic mice can express HBV-related antigens,and are immune tolerant to the antigens.The innate and acquired immunity of the HBV transgenic mice are normal,which is similar to chronic asymptomatic HBV carriers of human.Therefore,HBV transgenic mouse is an ideal animal model.
