Aim To analyze the anti-A549 and HI299 lung ade-nocarcinoma activities via using examples of baicalin, astragalo-side, hesperidin and cisplatin based on real time cellular analysis (RTCA) technology, and to build a new strategy for EC50 e-valuation reflecting the time-dimensional characteristic. Methods Using RTCA Software Pro for data analysis and GraphPad Prism and Origin Pro plotting, the in vitro anti-A549 and H1299 lung adenocarcinoma activities of baicalin, astragaloside, hesperidin, and cisplatin were characterized using the endpoint method and time dimension, respectively. Results (X) There were significant differences in EC50 values of A549 and H1299 cells at 24 h and 48 h endpoint methods. (2) The correlation coefficient of the curve fitted with the four-parameter equation was > 0. 9, and the dynamic change of EC50 remained relatively stable (the linear fitting of EC50 at adjacent 4 points I slope 1^1) used to calculate the EC50 value within this time dimension. The EC50 of baicalin, astragaloside, hesperidin and cisplatin on A549 cells was 52. 97 ±1.75 плпо! • L~1(16~48 h) , 62.88 ± 2.91 ijunol • L"1 (32.25 -48 h) , 78.84 ±0.33 плпо1 • L"1 (21.5 -29.75 h), 13.57 ±1.54 плпо1 • L_1(27.5 -48 h), respectively; the EC50 of baicalin, astragaloside, hesperidin and cisplatin on H1299 cells was 43. 71 ± 1. 26 |лто1 • L_1 ( 19. 5 -48 h), 47.23 ±1. 19 |лто1 • L_1(14 -48 h) , 39.45 ±0.24 плпо1 • L"1 (12.75 -46.25 h), 25.97 ±4.76 плпо1 • L"1 (10. 25 -48 h) , respectively. The results showed that the time window for the anti-tumor effect of the test solution/drug was different. Conclusions Based on RTCA technology, it is more accurate and reasonable to select EC50 data that exhibit better fitting, stable changes, and time-dimensional characteristics for the evaluation of anti-tumor activity. In addition, this method of distinguishing different effective time of antitumor drugs can provide a reference for the timing of clinical combination drugs, and this approach will also provide a reference for further related studies.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the quality and existing problems of Compound Paracetamol and Chlorphenamine Tablets for Infant. METHODS Using legal standards to inspect sampled samples, and several analytical methods were subsequently established or improved for the exploratory research on related substances, assay, dissolution, subdivision characteristics of scored tablets, and genotoxic impurities. RESULTS All samples met the regulatory specification, and the pass rate was 100%. However, the control for related substances was lacking, and the method for assay and content uniformity was defective. The exploratory studies showed that the assay and content uniformity met the requirements, and the risk of related substances and genotoxic impurities was acceptable. As a divisible tablet, the subdivision characteristics could not meet the requirements of the scored tablet, and the dissolution performance of some enterprise samples could not meet the requirements of similar products in foreign pharmacopoeias. CONCLUSION The overall quality of this product is adequate. However, due to the early time on the market, some quality attributes no longer meet the requirements of current regulations or relevant guidelines. The manufacturers should further optimize the prescription and production process, referring to foreign similar products. The current specification needs to be revised and improved.

Objective:To study the application effect of family integrated ward in maintaining the optimal target pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2) in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Premature infants with BPD admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled. Based on whether to stay in family integrated ward and implement family integrated care (FICare), these premature infants were divided into the family ward group and the control group. The ratio of optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge, the duration of home oxygen therapy, and ratio of readmission due to respiratory disease within 6 months after discharge were analyzed between the two groups. Results:During the study period, a total of 167 premature infants with BPD were admitted, including 101 in the family ward group and 66 in the control group. Compared with the control group, the family ward group showed a higher proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge (58.0% vs. 24.0%), shorter duration for home oxygen therapy (7.0 d vs. 12.0 d), and a lower readmission rate within 6 months after discharge (16.5% vs. 30.2%), which had statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Further regression analysis showed that participating in the family integrated ward significantly reduced the demand for home oxygen therapy and the duration of home oxygen therapy, but had no significant impact on the readmission rate within 6 months after discharge. Conclusions:Family integrated ward can effectively increase the proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 for premature infants with BPD within 24 h before discharge, reduce the demand for home oxygen therapy, and shorten the time of home oxygen therapy after discharge, which is beneficial for improving the living quality of premature infants with BPD.

Objective:To explore the value of serum procalcitonin (PCT), amylase (AMY), albumin (ALB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the clinical diagnosis and evaluation of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:A total of 70 patients with acute pancreatitis treated in Yancheng First People′s Hospital from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022 were enrolled as pancreatitis group. According to disease severity, they were divided into mild group (22 cases) and severe group (48 cases). A total of 70 controls during the same period were enrolled as control group. The general data of all the objects were collected at enrollment. The levels of plasma PCT, AMY, ALB and LDH were detected. The diagnostic value of the above indexes for SAP and their evaluation value for disease severity were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:The levels of serum PCT, AMY and LDH in the pancreatitis group were significantly higher than those in the control group: (3.14 ± 0.67) μg/L vs. (0.82 ± 0.21) μg/L, (602.53 ± 199.47) U/L vs. (99.97 ± 30.85) U/L, (767.24 ± 198.73) U/L vs. (423.61 ± 59.19) U/L, P<0.05; while ALB was significantly lower than that in the control group: (33.47 ± 6.98) g/L vs. (45.79 ± 6.12) g/L, P<0.05. ROC curves analysis showed that area under the curve (AUC) values of PCT, AMY, LDH, ALB and combined detection in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis were 0.783, 0.792, 0.697, 0.732 and 0.915, respectively. The levels of serum PCT and LDH in the mild group were significantly lower than those in the severe group: (2.76 ± 0.44) μg/L vs. (3.59 ± 0.61) μg/L, (507.06 ± 131.67) U/L vs. (848.95 ± 207.79) U/L, P<0.05; while ALB was significantly higher than that in the severe group: (35.39 ± 4.73) g/L vs. (32.64 ± 5.09) g/L, P<0.05. ROC curves analysis showed that the AUC values of PCT, LDH, ALB and combined detection for evaluating disease severity were 0.668, 0.749, 0.741 and 0.959, respectively. The evaluation value of combined detection was significantly higher than that of single index ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The levels of serum PCT, AMY and LDH are abnormally increased, while ALB level is abnormally decreased in patients with acute pancreatitis, and which all can be applied for clinical diagnosis. PCT, LDH and ALB can be applied for disease evaluation.

Objective To summarize the epidemiological and clinical features of infectious diseases of the central nervous system(CNS)by a single-center analysis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 1247 cases of CNS infectious diseases diagnosed and treated in the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from 2001 to 2020.Results The data for this group of CNS infectious diseases by disease type in descending order of number of cases were viruses 743(59.6％),Mycobacterium tuberculosis 249(20.0％),other bacteria 150(12.0％),fungi 68(5.5％),parasites 18(1.4％),Treponema pallidum 18(1.4％)and rickettsia 1(0.1％).The number of cases increased by 177 cases(33.1％)in the latter 10 years compared to the previous 10 years(P<0.05).No significant difference in seasonal distribution pattern of data between disease types(P>0.05).Male to female ratio is 1.87︰1,mostly under 60 years of age.Viruses are more likely to infect students,most often at university/college level and above,farmers are overrepresented among bacteria and Mycobacterium tuberculosis,and more infections of Treponema pallidum in workers.CNS infectious diseases are characterized by fever,headache and signs of meningeal irritation,with the adductor nerve being the more commonly involved cranial nerve.Matagenomic next-generation sequencing improves clinical diagnostic capabilities.The median hospital days for CNS infectious diseases are 18.00(11.00,27.00)and median hospital costs are ￥29,500(￥16,000,￥59,200).The mortality rate from CNS infectious diseases is 1.6％.Conclusions The incidence of CNS infectious diseases is increasing last ten years,with complex clinical presentation,severe symptoms and poor prognosis.Early and accurate diagnosis and standardized clinical treatment can significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality rate and ease the burden of disease.

Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) is widely distributed in various organisms. The first reported ENGase activity was detected in Diplococcus pneumoniae in 1971. The protein (Endo D) was purified and its peptide sequence was determined in 1974. Three ENGases (Endo F1-F3) were discovered in Flavobacterium meningosepticum from 1982 to 1993. After that, the activity was detected from different species of bacteria, yeast, fungal, plant, mice, human, etc. Multiple ENGases were detected in some species, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Trichoderma atroviride. The first preliminary crystallographic analysis of ENGase was conducted in 1994. But to date, only a few ENGases structures have been obtained, and the structure of human ENGase is still missing. The currently identified ENGases were distributed in the GH18 or GH85 families in Carbohydrate-Active enZyme (CAZy) database. GH18 ENGase only has hydrolytic activity, but GH85 ENGase has both hydrolytic and transglycosylation activity. Although ENGases of the two families have similar (β/α)8-TIM barrel structures, the active sites are slightly different. ENGase is an effective tool for glycan detection andglycan editing. Biochemically, ENGase can specifically hydrolyze β‑1,4 glycosidic bond between the twoN-acetylglucosamines (GlcNAc) on core pentasaccharide presented on glycopeptides and/or glycoproteins. Different ENGases may have different substrate specificity. The hydrolysis products are oligosaccharide chains and a GlcNAc or glycopeptides or glycoproteins with a GlcNAc. Conditionally, it can use the two products to produce a new glycopeptides or glycoprotein. Although ENGase is a common presentation in cell, its biological function remains unclear. Accumulated evidences demonstrated that ENGase is a none essential gene for living and a key regulator for differentiation. No ENGase gene was detected in the genomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and three other yeast species. Its expression was extremely low in lung. As glycoproteins are not produced by prokaryotic cells, a role for nutrition and/or microbial-host interaction was predicted for bacterium produced enzymes. In the embryonic lethality phenotype of the Ngly1-deficient mice can be partially rescued by Engase knockout, suggesting down regulation of Engase might be a solution for stress induced adaptation. Potential impacts of ENGase regulation on health and disease were presented. Rabeprazole, a drug used for stomach pain as a proton inhibitor, was identified as an inhibitor for ENGase. ENGases have been applied in vitro to produce antibodies with a designated glycan. The two step reactions were achieved by a pair of ENGase dominated for hydrolysis of substrate glycoprotein and synthesis of new glycoprotein with a free glycan of designed structure, respectively. In addition, ENGase was also been used in cell surface glycan editing. New application scenarios and new detection methods for glycobiological engineering are quickly opened up by the two functions of ENGase, especially in antibody remodeling and antibody drug conjugates. The discovery, distribution, structure property, enzymatic characteristics and recent researches in topical model organisms of ENGase were reviewed in this paper. Possible biological functions and mechanisms of ENGase, including differentiation, digestion of glycoproteins for nutrition and stress responding were hypothesised. In addition, the role of ENGase in glycan editing and synthetic biology was discussed. We hope this paper may provide insights for ENGase research and lay a solid foundation for applied and translational glycomics.

Protein as the allergens could lead to allergy. In addition, a widespread class of allergens were known as glycans of N-glycoprotein. N-glycoprotein contained oligosaccharide linked by covalent bonds with protein. Recently,studies implicated that allergy was associated with glycans of heterologous N-glycoprotein found in food, inhalants, insect toxins, etc. The N-glycan structure of N-glycoprotein allergen has exerted an influence on the binding between allergens and IgE, while the recognition and presentation of allergens by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) were also affected. Some researches showed thatN-glycan structure of allergen was remodeled by N-glycosidase, such as cFase I, gpcXylase, as binding of allergen and IgE partly decreased. Thus, allergic problems caused by N-glycoproteins could potentially be solved by modifying or altering the structure ofN-glycoprotein allergens, addressing the root of the issue. Mechanism of N-glycans associated allergy could also be elaborated through glycosylation enzymes, alterations of host glycosylation. This article hopes to provide a separate insight for glycoimmunology perspective, and an alternative strategy for clinical prevention or therapy of allergic diseases.

Objective To investigate the effects of zalcitabine(ddC),a mitochondrial DNA polymerase γ(POLG)inhibitor,on the migration,invasion,and to preliminarily explore mitochondrial biogenesis of human tri-ple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells.Methods The effect of ddC on cell viability was detected using the MTT assay.The migration and invasion abilities of the cells were evaluated using the cell scratch and Transwell in-vasion assays.Cell apoptosis was determined using flow cytometry and a V-FITC/PI cell apoptosis detection kit.The protein expression of POLG,NADH dehydrogenase subunit Ⅰ(NADH1),NADH dehydrogenase subunit Ⅱ(NADH2),ATP synthase subunit 6(ATPase6),cytochrome c oxidase subunit Ⅰ(COX-1)and cytochrome c ox-idase subunit Ⅲ(COX-3)were determined using Western blot.The POLG mRNA level and mtDNA copy number were determined using qPCR.The mitochondrial content and ATP levels were determined using MitoTracker Green fluorescent probe staining and an ATP determination kit.MDA-MB-231 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-EG-FP-POLG plasmids to overexpress POLG.The inhibitory effects of ddC on cell migration and invasion were detected in POLG-overexpressed MDA-MB-231 cells.Results POLG expression was higher in MDA-MB-231 cells than in normal mammary epithelial cells(MCF-10A)(P＜0.01).ddC inhibited cell viability in a dose-dependent man-ner.ddC inhibited the migration(P＜0.01)and invasion(P＜0.01)of MDA-MB-231 cells;however,it dis-played no significant inhibitory effects on cell viability in normal mammary epithelial cells(MCF-10A)at the same concentration.ddC downregulated the protein(P＜0.01)and mRNA(P＜0.01)levels of POLG,reduced mtD-NA copy number(P＜0.01)and downregulated mtDNA-coded NADH1,NADH2,ATPase6,COX-1 and COX-3 protein expression(P＜0.01)in MDA-MB-231 cells.Furthermore ddC inhibited mitochondrial content(P＜0.01)and ATP(P＜0.01)levels in MDA-MB-231 cells.POLG overexpression increased the migration(P＜0.05)and invasion(P＜0.05)abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells,while ddC did not significantly inhibit the migra-tion and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells overexpressing POLG.Conclusion ddC downregulates POLG ex-pression in MDA-MB-231 cells and inhibits mitochondrial biogenesis and ATP levels,thereby inhibiting the migra-tion and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of high-frequency irreversible electroporation(H-FIRE)in the ablation of pig pancreatic tissue.Methods Laparotomy was conducted in this study,and needle electrodes were used to release electric pulses in 12 pigs.Three sets of parameters were established for ablation at the low,medium,and high values of field strength(1 000 V/cm,1 500 V/cm,and 2 500 V/cm).The groups were compared in terms of the data including postoperative recovery,ablation area,and histopathological features to validate the safety and efficacy of H-FIRE in the ablation of porcine pancreatic tissue.The paired t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups.Results All pigs in the experiment survived and showed a good effect of ablation.The histopathological analysis of all groups showed thorough and effective ablation,with a clear boundary between the ablated area and the normal tissue area.The mean ablation area in the low,medium,and high field strength groups was 30.96±3.73 mm2,51.93±25.26 mm2,and 108.90±55.23 mm2,respectively,and the high and medium field strength groups had a significantly larger ablation area than the low field strength group(both P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in ablation area between the medium and high field strength groups(P>0.05).Conclusion H-FIRE ablation is safe and effective for porcine pancreatic tissue under specific ablation parameters.
