OBJECTIVE:To study the effec ts of Tibetan Codonopsis tralictrifolia extract (called“ZDS”for short ) on collagen-induced arthritis (CIA)model rats and its mechanism. METHODS :Eight of 48 rats were randomly selected as normal control group (normal saline ),and the remaining 40 rats were used to establish CIA model. After successful modeling ,the rats were randomly divided into model group (normal saline ),ZDS low-dose ,medium-dose and high-dose groups (0.44,0.88,1.76 g/kg,by crude drug ),dexamethasone group (positive control ,0.002 5 g/kg),with 8 rats in each group. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically ,the volume of 400 μL,once a day ,for consecutive 28 days. The body weight of rats were weighed before medication (0 d),7,14,21 and 28 days after medication ;and arthritis indexes were scored. The pathological changes of the knee joint synoviual tissue were observed after last medication. The thymus index ,spleen index ,the levels of serum inflammatory factors (IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6),protein expressions of NF-κB p65,p-NF-κB p65,IκB and p-IκB in synovial tissue were detected. RESULTS :Compared with normal control group ,the body weight (14,21,28 days after administration )of rats in model group was significantly reduced (P<0.05);the arthritis index score (before administration and different administration time)was significantly increased (P<0.05);the joint synovial tissue was pathologically damaged ;the thymus and spleen index , inflammation factor level ,the protein expression of p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκB were increased significantly(P<0.05),while the protein expression of IκB was decreased significantly(P<0.05). Compared with model group ,the level of IL- 1β was decreased significantly in ZDS low-dose group (P<0.05). Body weight of rats (21,28 days after administration )were increased significantly in ZDS medium-dose and high-dose groups ,dexamethasone group (P<0.05),while arthritis index score (14,21,28 days after administration ) was decreased significantly (P<0.05). The pathological damage of joint synovial tissue was significantly relieved ;thymus and spleen index ,inflammation factor level ,the protein expression of p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκB were significantly reduced,while the protein expression of IκB was significantly increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS :ZDS can improve CIA model rats to some extent ,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases reported in Ningbo from January 22 to February 22, 2020, so as to provide guidance for the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic.
Methods:
The confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported by Ningbo were selected from National Diseases Prevention and Control Information System to analyze the epidemiological characteristics by descriptive epidemiological method, including time, spatial and population distribution, clinical symptoms and exposure history.
Results:
A total of 157 confirmed cases of COVID-19 were reported and there was no death. The first confirmed case was reported on January 22. On the incidence curve, the peak was from January 22 to February 4, with a maximum of 15 cases in a single day. The incidence curve presented sustained human-to-human transmission. The number of the cases showed a declining trend from February 5. The confirmed cases were reported in all 10 counties(cities or districts),among which 69(43.95%)cases were reported in Haishu District. The confirmed cases were mainly 30-69 years old,accounting for 78.34%;were mainly farmers,household workers and retired people,accounting for 59.87%;and were mainly clinically mild,accounting for 87.90%.There were 51 imported cases, accounting for 32.48%. The initial confirmed case was a local case. In the early stage of the epidemic, local cases and imported cases prevalent together,which was due to the outbreak caused by the large-scale buddhist activity on January 19.This event resulted in 67 confirmed cases and 15 asymptomatic cases. There totally reported 22 clusters with 138 (87.90%)confirmed cases.
Conclusions
In the early stage of the COVID-19 epidemic in Ningbo, the imported cases and local cases prevalent at the same time. Most of the cases were female, aged from 30 to 69 years, and their occupation were farmers, household workers and retired people. With comprehensive measures taken, the epidemic of COVID-19 in Ningbo have been under control.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune syndrome characterized by various co-existing autoantibodies (autoAbs) in patients' blood. However, the full spectrum of autoAbs in SLE has not been comprehensively elucidated. In this study, a commercial platform bearing 9400 antigens (ProtoArray) was used to identify autoAbs that were significantly elevated in the sera of SLE patients. By comparing the autoAb profiles of SLE patients with those of healthy controls, we identified 437 IgG and 1213 IgM autoAbs that the expression levels were significantly increased in SLE (P < 0.05). Use of the ProtoArray platform uncovered over 300 novel autoAbs targeting a broad range of nuclear, cytoplasmic, and membrane antigens. Molecular interaction network analysis revealed that the antigens targeted by the autoAbs were most significantly enriched in cell death, cell cycle, and DNA repair pathways. A group of autoAbs associated with cell apoptosis and DNA repair function, including those targeting APEX1, AURKA, POLB, AGO1, HMGB1, IFIT5, MAPKAPK3, PADI4, RGS3, SRP19, UBE2S, and VRK1, were further validated by ELISA and Western blot in a larger cohort. In addition, the levels of autoAbs against APEX1, HMGB1, VRK1, AURKA, PADI4, and SRP19 were positively correlated with the level of anti-dsDNA in SLE patients. Comprehensive autoAb screening has identified novel autoAbs, which may shed light on potential pathogenic pathways leading to lupus.

Objective To investigate the effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs ) on vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 ( MCP-1 ) of acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (AMI-R) injury in rats. Methods 24 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group, AMI-R group and UCMSCs treatment groups on average. The rats were sacrificed on the 10th day after UCMSCs transplantation, and the myocardial tissues below the ligature were taken. The mRNA and protein expressions of MCP-1 of the tissue were detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot respectively, and the expression of VEGF protein was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The relative expression levels of MCP-1 mRNA and the protein in UCMSCs group were significantly lower than those in sham group and AMI-R group (all P<0.05). The expression of VEGF protein in UCMSCs group was significantly higher than that in sham group and AMI-R group, the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Conclusion UCMSCs transplantation can promote the angiogenesis and decrease the inflammation reaction in the treatment of acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
