Objective To establish in vitro the small intestinal organoid culture system and to investigate the effect of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)on the growth of small intestinal organoids and the secretion of inflammatory factors.Methods In vitro,the small intestinal crypt cell mass of C57BL/6 mice was aseptically isolated,collected and embedded in organoid matrix.Under the support of complete medium,the small intestinal organoids with three-dimensional multi-leaf structure with small intestinal epithelioid structure were formed.The small intestinal organoids were subcultured after 5-7 d culture.On the third day after passage,the small intestinal organoids were randomly divided into different mass concentrations of LPS groups(0,150,175,200,225,250,275 and 300 mg/L).After 24 h and 48 h of LPS induction,morphological changes of small intestinal organoid growth and differentiation were observed.CCK-8 method was used to detect the effect of different time points and mass concentrations of LPS on the proliferative activity of small intestinal organoids after induction of inflammation.The effects of four different mass concentrations of LPS(0,175,200 and 225 mg/L)on expression levels of granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF),interleukin(IL)-1α,IL-6 and IL-10 in organoid culture supernatant at different times were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results The mouse small intestinal organoid culture system was preliminarily constructed.After different time and mass concentration of LPS induced inflammation of small intestinal organoids,it was observed by morphology that small intestinal organoids would have different degrees of expansion and apoptosis in lumen.The proliferation,differentiation and budding of damaged intestinal epithelial crypts or intestinal stem cells were also inhibited to varying degrees,indicating that the growth of small intestinal organoids would be limited to varying degrees after induced inflammation.The proliferation activity of small intestinal organoids decreased to varying degrees after 24 h and 48 h of LPS induction at 175-225 mg/L(P＜0.05),but the cell viability was still greater than 50%.The levels of IL-1α,IL-6 and GM-CSF partially increased after induction with 200 mg/L and 225 mg/L LPS for 24 h and 48 h(P＜0.05).The level of IL-10 decreased after induction with 200 mg/L LPS for 24 h and 48 h(P＜0.05).Conclusion In this study,a model of intestinal inflammatory injury in vitro induced by LPS with different mass concentrations and time points is preliminarily constructed,which provides a more reliable research platform for the mechanism research of intestinal diseases and the screening of effective drugs in the future.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of online pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) management among community-dwelling patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This study was a single-center randomized controlled trail with an unblinded design. A total of 130 patients with stable COPD who visited Zhuanqiao Community Health Service Center in Shanghai Minhang District from October 2020 to March 2022 were randomly divided into study group and control group with 65 cases in each group. Both groups received conventional treatment, while patients in study group attended online rehabilitation management, including face-to-face rehabilitation instruction and multiple online guidance. Pulmonary ventilation function including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1) and percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second to forced expiratoty volume (FEV 1%pred), modified British Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test (CAT), score of 6 minutes walking distance (6MWD) and DOSE (dyspnea, degree of airflow obstruction, smoking status, the number of exacerbation) index were measured at baseline and after 8 weeks of rehabilitation, and compared between two groups. Results:The baseline data of the two groups were comparable. After 8 weeks of management, FVC, FEV 1, FEV 1%pred, mMRC, CAT, 6MWD and DOSE index of both groups were improved compared with the baseline level(control group: t=-7.799, -7.581, -9.010, 3.565, 9.887, -16.677, 3.795; study group: t=-12.623, -13.914, -17.644, 7.404, 22.457, -26.826, 7.968; all P<0.05). The FEV 1%pred, CAT and 6MWD in the study group were better than those in the control group ( t=-2.939, 2.277,-2.130, all P<0.05); while there were no significant differences in FVC, FEV 1, mMRC and DOSE index between the two groups( t=-0.162, -1.280, 0.925, 1.939,all P>0.05). Conclusions:The online pulmonary rehabilitation management can better improve lung function, dyspnea symptoms and exercise tolerance of patients with stable COPD, which can be used for rehabilitation training and management of community-dwelling patients.

Atractylodes macrocephala, a plant of the Asteraceae family, as a commonly used traditional Chinses medicine in clinic, has the efficacy of invigorating spleen and supplementing qi, eliminating dampness and inducing diuresis, and expelling wind and dispersing cold. Moreover, it was proved that it has many pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammation, anti-tumor, and improving immunical ability based on the scientific researches. Atractyloside is one of its active ingredients and characteristic ingredients. In this paper, using the search terms of Baizhu lactone, sesquiterpene lactone, quality evaluation, quality control, and chemical composition, the CNKI, Weipu and PubMed literature database were searched. And relevant literature results were compared and summarized. The catagories, structural formula of atractyloside and their transformation mechanism were summarized. It was found that the content of lactone components could be affected by different processing methods, different producing locations, different harvesting season, and different growth years. It was found that for the quality evaluation of Atractylodes macrocephala, the multivariate statistical analysis combined with content determination or fingerprint establishment could be more accurate, reliable and comprehensive, among which the supervised PLS-DA with OPLS-DA analysis was better than the unsupervised PCA analysis. This literature summary could provide a beneficial reference for the quality evaluation and utilization of Atractylodes macrocephala.

Objective:To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic etiology of a child with Developmental epileptic encephalopathy type 104 (DEE 104).Methods:A child who had presented at the Children′s Medical Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University in February 2021 for recurrent seizures over 1 month was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. Peripheral blood samples of the child and his parents were collected and subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing.Results:The child, a five-month-old male, had presented with frequent focal seizures with severe developmental retardation from infancy. Physical examination showed emaciation, microcephaly, oblique palpebral fissures, Stahl′s ears, and hypotonia in the limbs. Electroencephalogram revealed multi-focal sharp waves, slow waves and slow spinal waves. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed enlargement of bilateral lateral ventricles and the third ventricle, along with widening of brain sulci, fissure and cisterna. WES revealed that he had harbored a heterozygous c. 2401C>T (p.His801Tyr) missense variant of the ATP6V0A1 gene. Sanger sequencing showed that both of his parents were of the wild type. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was predicted to be likely pathogenic (PS2+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3). The proband was diagnosed with DEE 104. Early treatment with sodium valproate has failed, but the child had become seizure free after the addition of levetiracetam and topiramate. He still had abnormal EEG discharges and severe psychomotor retardation. Combining our case and a review of literature, DEE104 is mainly caused by de novo heterozygous variants of the ATP6V0A1 gene with an autosomal dominant inheritance. The patients may show refractory epilepsy and severe global developmental delay from infancy. Conclusion:The c. 2401C>T (p.His801Tyr) variant probably underlay the DEE104 in this child.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and genetic basis for a child with Intellectual developmental disorder (IDD) and epilepsy.Methods:A child who was admitted to the Children′s Medical Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University in February 2021 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. Peripheral blood samples of the child and her parents were collected and subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing.Results:The patient, a 3-month-and-27-day female infant, had developed the symptoms in the neonatal period, which included severe developmental delay, respiratory difficulties and pauses, increased muscle tone of four limbs, feeding difficulty, and seizures. Cerebral MRI revealed bilateral cerebellar hypoplasia, and video EEG showed slightly increased sharp waves emanating predominantly from the right parietal, occipital, and posterior temporal regions. WES revealed that she has harbored a missense c. 3196G>A (p.Glu1066Lys) variant of the CLTC gene, which was confirmed to be de novo by Sanger sequencing. Based on the guideline from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was classified as likely pathogenic (PS2+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3). Conclusion:The c. 3196G>A (p.Glu1066Lys) missense variant of the CLTC gene probably underlay the pathogenesis in this child. Above finding has facilitated her diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To explore the role and mechanism of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase(PI3K/AKT/mTOR)signaling in autoimmune thyroiditis(AIT).Methods 24 female C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups:a normal control(NC)group,an experimental autoimmune thyroiditis(EAT)group,and two groups treated with LY294002(25 mg/kg or 50 mg/kg LY294002).The degree of thyroiditis was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining.The percentage of Th 17 cells in the spleen mononuclear cells(SMCs)was determined by flow cytometry.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the concentrations of thyroglobulin antibody(TgAb)and interleukin-17A(IL-17A)in the serum.Western blotting was conducted to detect the protein levels of IL-17A,p-AKT(Thr308),p-AKT(Ser473),p-mTOR(Ser2448),S6K1,and S6K2 in the different groups.Results Compared with the NC group,the infiltration of Th17 cells and the expressions ofIL-17A,p-AKT(Ser473),p-AKT(Thr308),p-mTOR(Ser2448),S6K1,and S6K2 rose remarkably in EAT mice.After the PI3K pathway was blocked,the degree of thyroiditis was significantly alleviated,followed by the proportion of Th17 cells,and the expression of IL-17A and PI3K pathway-related molecules decreased in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway participates in thyroid autoimmune jnjury of EAT mice by regulating Th17 cells differentiation.

无义介导的信使RNA（mRNA）降解途径（nonsense-mediated mRNA decay，简称为NMD)是真核生物细胞内一种重要的基因转录后表达调控机制，它积极参与一系列细胞生理和生化过程，控制细胞命运和生命体的组织稳态。NMD的缺陷会导致人类疾病，如神经发育障碍、肿瘤发生和自身免疫疾病等。UPF3 (Up-frameshift protein 3)是一个核心的NMD因子，它最早在酵母中被发现。UPF3A和UPF3B是UPF3在生物进化到脊椎动物阶段出现的两个旁系同源物，在NMD中具有激活或抑制的作用。以往研究发现，UPF3B蛋白几乎在所有哺乳动物器官中均有表达，而UPF3A蛋白在除睾丸外的大多数哺乳动物组织中难以被检测到。解释这一现象的假说为：在NMD途径中，UPF3B具有比UPF3A更高的竞争性结合UPF2的能力，UPF3B和UPF2的结合促使UPF3A成为游离状态，而游离的UPF3A蛋白不稳定且易被降解。此假说提示UPF3A和UPF3B在NMD中存在拮抗作用。在本研究中，我们重新定量评估了UPF3A和UPF3B在野生型成年雄性和雌性小鼠的9个主要组织和生殖器官中的mRNA和蛋白表达，结果证实UPF3A在雄性生殖细胞中表达量最高。令人惊讶的是，我们发现在包括大脑和胸腺在内的大多数组织中，UPF3A与UPF3B的蛋白水平相当，而在小鼠脾、肺组织中，UPF3A表达高于UPF3B。公共基因表达数据进一步支持了上述发现。因此，我们的研究表明了UPF3A是小鼠组织中普遍表达的NMD因子。同时，该研究结果推测：在生理条件下，UPF3A和UPF3B蛋白之间不存在竞争抑制，且UPF3A在多种哺乳动物组织的稳态中发挥重要作用。

Taking the Department of Pathology of Duke University as an example, this paper compares and analyzes the training mode of pathology residents in China and the United States. It is found that the organization and management system and supervision and assessment system of residency training in China have been improved, but it is still necessary to strengthen the in-depth implementation of humanistic education and training subjects for residents. Pathologist training should be based on "elite education" as the guiding ideology, to cultivate high-quality, high-level outstanding clinical pathology personnel as the specific goal, to build a solid foundation of clinical medicine.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.
