Objective:To detect the expression of L-type amino acid transporter 1(LAT1)in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL)tissues,and analyze its effect on clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients.Methods:A total of 92 NHL patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2017 to April 2019 were collected.The expression of LAT1 in NHL tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry and compared between patients with different pathological features(including sex,Ann Arbor stage,extranodal infiltration,Ki-67).The risk factors affecting mortality were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to detect the predictive value of percentage of LAT1-positive cells in NHL tissue for patient mortality,and analyzing the effect of percentage of LAT1-positive cells on survival rate.Results:LAT1 was positively expressed in NHL tissue.The high expression rate of LAT1 in Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ groups were higher than that in Ann Arbor stage Ⅰ group,that in extranodal infiltration group was higher than non-extranodal infiltration group,and that in Ki-67 positive expression group was higher than Ki-67 negative expression group(all P＜0.05).The remission rate after 3 courses of treatment in high-LAT1 expression group was 70.7％,which was lower than 91.2％in low-LAT1 expression group(P＜0.05).Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ,extranodal invasion,Ki-67 positive expression and increased expression of LAT1(LAT1-positive cell percentage score ≥ 2)were risk factors for mortality.The cut-off value of percentage of LAT1-positive cells for predicting NHL death was 45.6％,and the area under the ROC curve was 0.905(95％CI:0.897-0.924).The 3-year survival rate of high-LAT1 level group(the percentage of LAT1-positive cells ≥ 45.6％)was 50.00％,which was lower than 78.26％of low-LAT1 level group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The expression level of LAT1 in NHL tissue increases,which affects Ann Arbor stage and extranodal infiltration of patients.LAT1 is a risk factor for death.

Objective To observe the value of contrast-enhanced mammography(CEM)for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications.Methods Data of 116 female patients with 132 breast imaging reporting and data system(BI-RADS)category 4 to 5 lesions were retrospectively analyzed.The lesions were divided into malignant group(n=86)and benign group(n=46)according to the pathologic results.The morphological manifestations of calcification and their distributions were classified into high or low risk,and the combined risk typing of calcifications was assessed according to these two.Finally,an overall risk typing of CEM was obtained through combining the combined risk type of calcifications and accompanied enhancement or not.Then receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,the area under the curves(AUC)were calculated,and the efficacy of the above indexes for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications were evaluated and compared.Results Significant differences of morphology,distribution and accompanied enhancement were found between groups(all P＜0.05).The AUC of morphology risk,distribution risk,the combined risk of calcification,accompanied enhancement and CEM overall risk for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications was 0.709,0.678,0.774,0.800 and 0.875,respectively,of CEM overall risk was higher than that of the others(all P＜0.05).Conclusion CEM overall risk type obtained through integrating morphology and distribution manifestations of calcifications and enhancement type could improve the efficiency of CEM for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications.

Aim To investigate the effect of microinjection of EX527, a selective SIRT1 antagonist, into the ventrolateral orbital cortex (VLO) on morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP), and to explore the role of CREB/BDNF in it. Methods The cannulas were implanted bilaterally in the VLO of rats by brain stereotaxis surgery, and the model of morphine-induced CPP was established. The behavioral experiment consisted of four stages:habituation (d 1), pre-test (d 2-4), conditioning training (d 5-14) and test (d 15). At the stage of conditioning training, EX527 (1 μL, 5 g·L

Objective: To retrospectively analyze the risk factors of anastomotic leakage in the neck after esophageal cancer and establish a nomogram prediction model that can accurately predict the occurrence of anastomotic leakage in the neck of the patient. Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed 702 patients who underwent radical esophageal cancer surgery between January 2010 and May 2015 at Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to determine the risk factors for neck anastomotic leak, and a nomogram model was constructed, internal validation methods were used to evaluate and verify the predictive effectiveness of the nomogram. Results: There were 702 patients in the whole group, 492 in the training group and 210 in the validation group. The incidence of postoperative cervical anastomotic leak was 16.1% (79/492) in 492 patients with esophageal cancer in the training group. Multifactorial analysis revealed calcification of the descending aorta (OR=2.12, 95% CI: 1.14, 3.94, P=0.018), calcification of the celiac artery (OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.13, 4.64, P=0.022), peripheral vascular disease (OR=5.50, 95% CI: 1.64, 18.40, P=0.006), postoperative ventilator-assisted breathing (OR=5.33, 95% CI: 1.83, 15.56, P=0.002), pleural effusion or septic chest (OR=3.08, 95% CI: 1.11, 8.55, P=0.031), incisional fat liquefaction and infection (OR=3.49, 95% CI: 1.68, 7.27, P=0.001) were independent risk factors for the development of cervical anastomotic leak after esophageal cancer surgery. The results of the nomogram prediction model showed that the consistency indices of the training and external validation groups were 0.73 and 0.74, respectively (P<0.001), suggesting that the prediction model has good predictive efficacy. Conclusion: The nomogram prediction model can intuitively predict the incidence of postoperative cervical anastomotic leakage in patients with high prediction accuracy, which can help provide a clinical basis for preventing cervical anastomotic leak and individualized treatment of patients.

This study was aimed to understand the current status of the antimicrobial resistance and molecular distribution of Campylobacter in various poultry in Jiaodong area,to provide a basis for effective prevention and control of the Campy-lobacter risk to poultry products and human health.Campylobacter was isolated and identified from 565 cloacal samples collect-ed in the Jiaodong area from August to October 2021 through conventional bacterial isolation and culture,mass spectrometry,microbroth dilution and multilocus sequence typing(MLST).The drug resistance and molecular typing of 131 representative strains(67 Campylobacter jejuni and 64 Campylobacter coli)were studied separately.Antimicrobial resistance analysis indica-ted that 131 isolates were highly resistant to ciprofloxacin,nalixic acid and tetracycline,with resistance rates of 96.21％,96.21％and 95.45％,respectively.Except for 2 strains,62 strains of C.coli were completely resistant to these three drugs(100％).A total of 65 strains of 131 strains were multidrug re-sistant,and the overall multidrug resistance rate was 49.62％,among which 11 strains(16.42％)of C.jejuni were resistance to 3-5 antibiotics,and 54 strains(84.38％)of C.coli were re-sistance to 3-6 antibiotics.Among the isolates from different poultry sources,waterfowl isolates were the most resistant,fol-lowed by broiler isolates.The MLST typing results revealed 72 alleles and 35 sequence types obtained from 67 strains of C.je-juni,and the distribution was relatively dispersed,without a dominant ST type and homologous complex.A total of 27 alleles and 19 sequence types were obtained from 64 strains of C.coli.Moreover,59.38％(38/64)strains were homologous complex CC-828,in which the ST-1586 sequence type was most frequent,followed by ST-825.ST-1586,ST-9944 and ST-3735 were the main sources of C.coli in broilers,and ST-825 and ST-1586 were the main sources of C.coli in waterfowl.Differences in C.jejuni and C.coli carriage were observed among poultry in the Jiaodong area.Carriage of the two bacteria was more common in laying hens than in broilers and waterfowl.C.jejuni from poultry in the Jiaodong area was highly resistant to ciprofloxacin,nalixic acid and tetracycline,but had good sensitivity to other drugs.C.coli was highly resistant to a variety of antibiotics,and multiple drug resistance was common.St-type dispersal of C.jejuni showed high genetic diversity.C.coli was cloned and transmitted mainly by ST-1586 in broiler chickens and waterfowl.Poultry carry C.jejuni,which can cause serious diseases in humans.Therefore,dynamic monitoring of Campylobacter from poultry should be strengthened.

Background: Inactivated vaccines are limited in preventing foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) due to safety problems. Recombinant virus-like particles (VLPs) are an excellent candidate for a novel vaccine for preventing FMD, given that VLPs have similar immunogenicity as natural viruses and are replication- and infection-incompetent. Objectives: The 3C protease and P1 polyprotein of type O FMD virus (FDMV) was expressed in yeast Hansenula polymorpha to generate self-resembling VLPs, and the potential of recombinant VLPs as an FMD vaccine was evaluated. Methods: BALB/c mice were immunized with recombinant purified VLPs using CpG oligodeoxynucleotide and aluminum hydroxide gel as an adjuvant. Cytokines and lymphocytes from serum and spleen were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, enzyme-linked immunospot assay, and flow cytometry. Results: The VLPs of FMD were purified successfully from yeast protein with a diameter of approximately 25 nm. The immunization of mice showed that animals produced high levels of FMDV antibodies and a higher level of antibodies for a longer time. In addition, higher levels of interferon-γ and CD4 + T cells were observed in mice immunized with VLPs. Conclusions The expression of VLPs of FMD in H. polymorpha provides a novel strategy for the generation of the FMDV vaccine.

Objective:To investigate the protective role of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway in the process that vasonatrin peptide (VNP) reduces hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods:Twenty SD rats, weighting 200-250 g, were randomly divided into four groups and each group has five rats. The four groups were sham operation group (S group), ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group), VNP group (V group) and PD98059+ VNP group (P+ V group). In the rat model of hepatic warm ischemia and reperfusion, the hepatic artery and portal vein of the left lobe and middle lobe of the liver were clamped with arterial clamp for 45 min followed by reperfusion for 120 min. In the V group, VNP (50 μg/kg) was injected 10 minutes before ischemia. In the P+ V group, PD98059 (2 mg/kg) was injected 20 min before VNP injection followed by VNP administration and I/R treatment. The serum levels of alanine amino transaminase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and the superoxide dismutase (SOD) in liver tissue homogenate and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured. The histopathology of liver tissue was observed. The contents of p-ERK1/2 were detected by Western blot.Results:Compared with S group, in I/R group and P+ V group the serum levels of ALT [(489.65±11.22), (333.05±24.77) vs. (33.78±4.88) U/L], AST [(651.43±14.99), (503.18±21.48) vs. (154.84±12.32) U/L], TNF-α [(12.83±1.09), (9.64±0.57) vs. (2.11±0.11) ng/L], IL-1β [(7.19±0.62), (5.12±0.22) vs. (1.10±0.49) ng/L], MDA [(8.00±0.88), (5.60±1.01) vs. (2.76±1.29) μmol/mg] increased, while SOD [(54.89±10.60), (68.85±8.33) vs. (126.10±15.63) nmol/mg]decreased (all P<0.05). The histopathology of liver tissue revealed that liver structure damaged more seriously in I/R group and P+ V group. Western blot analysis showed that p-ERK1/2 decreased significantly in I/R group and P+ V group. Compared with I/R group, ALT, AST, MDA, TNF-α and IL-1β decreased significantly and SOD increased significantly in V group (all P<0.05). The histopathology of liver tissue revealed that liver structure was damaged slightly, and p-ERK1/2 increased significantly in V group compared with I/R group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:VNP can significantly reduce hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury through activation of p-ERK1/2 signaling pathway and inhibition of hepatocyte inflammatory response.
