Objective:To analyze the efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy and anti-drug antibody production in children with Fabry disease.Methods:The clinical data of 7 children with Fabry disease treated with enzyme replacement therapy for more than 1 year at Children′s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from July 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The basic information and the changes of related clinical indicators before and after treatment were collected. Paired sample t test was used to compare renal function, left heart mass index, pain score and other related indexes before and after treatment. The anti-drug antibodies were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:A total of 6 boys and 1 girl were included. The age of diagnosis was (12.2±1.8) years. After 1 year of enzyme replacement therapy, the abnormal substrate globotriaosylsphingosine and brief pain inventory scores of all children were significantly lower than those before treatment ((16±11) vs. (63±42) μg/L, 22±19 vs. 45±29, t=3.88, 3.43, both P<0.05). There were no significant differences in glomerular filtration rate, urinary microalbumin to creatinine and left heart mass index before and after treatment ((124±35) vs. (136±26) ml/(min·1.73 m 2), (9.3±8.3) vs. (3.8±2.5) mg/g, (38±9) vs. (33±6) g/m 2.7, t=1.33, 1.74, 1.19, all P>0.05). Patients 4, 5 and 6 developed anti-drug antibodies at 1 month, 4 months and 1 month after medication, respectively. Patient 4 had persistently high anti-drug antibody titers (absorbance 3.65-3.73) accompanied by urticaria, elevated globotriaosylsphingosine and worsening clinical symptoms. Conclusions:The enzyme replacement therapy can effectively improve the clinical symptoms and reduce the level of globotriaosylsphingosine in children with Fabry disease. The anti-drug antibody is common in patients after long-term enzyme replacement therapy and may diminish the efficacy, which needs dynamic monitoring.

Objective To investigate the effects of harmine(HM)on the expression level of mitochondrion fusion related proteins and mitochondrial function injury in PC 12 cells.Methods PC 12 cells were divided into cell control group,HM group,mitochondrion mitosis inhibitor Mdivi-1 group,HM+Mdivi-1 group,mitochondrion fission agonist WY14643 group,HM+WY14643 group,with drug concentrations of 1,10,25,50,100 μmol·L-1.After 24 h treatment,the MTT method was used to detect the cell survival rate,and a microscope was used to observe the cell morphology,MitoTracker Red probe staining was used to observe the mitochondrial morphology and the length ratio of vertical and horizontal axes,JC-1 staining was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential,and a kit was used to detect ATP level and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)activity.Immunofluorescence staining and Western blotting were used to assess the expression levels of caspase-3,apoptosis-promoting protein(Bax)cytochrome C(cyt-c),mitochondrial fusion protein(Mfn2)and mitochondrial mitotic protein(Drp-1).The interference sequence of Drp1 was transfected by electroporation,and the siRNA sequence with good transfection effect was screened.The related indicators were detected by fluorescence method,MTT method,and immunoblotting method in cooperation with drug intervention.Results MTT results showed that compared with the cell control group,the survival rate of HM group,Mdivi-1 group,HM+Mdivi-1 group,WY14643 group and HM+WY14643 group decreased significantly(P＜0.01),and the EC50 were(11.48±2.32),(12.35±1.67),(14.88±2.07),(39.14±3.25),(20.09±1.97),respectively.According to this,subsequent experiments selected 20 μmol·L-1for HM,WY 14643 and HM+WY14643 as working concentrations to construct PC 12 cell model.Microscopic observation and MitoTracker Red probe staining showed that the cell density in the drug group decreased in varying degrees,and a transition from branched to round morphology in the drug-treated groups was observed.The morphology of mitochondria tended to be round,and the ratio of the length of the longitudinal axis to transverse axis was(3.33±0.72)in the cell control group,(2.19±0.58)in the HM group,(2.45±0.44)in Mdivi-1 group,and(1.43±0.62)in HM+Mdivi-1 group,respectively.The results of JC-1 staining showed that compared with the cell control group,the mitochondrial mode potential of the HM group significantly decreased(P＜0.01).ROS significantly increased(P＜0.01)and ATP levels decreased(P＜0.01),and LDH enzyme activity increased(P＜0.01).Immunofluorescence staining and Western blotting results showed that compared with the cell control group,the expression levels of proapoptotic proteins Bax,cytochrome C,and caspase-3 in the HM group were significantly increased(all P＜0.01).Compared with the cell control group,the expression level of mitochondrial fission related protein Drp1 in HM group was significantly higher(P＜0.01).The expression level of mitochondrial fusion related protein Mfn2 significantly decreased(P＜0.01).After specific interference with Drp1 and synergistic intervention with HM,the survival rate of PC 12 cells in each interference group decreased compared to each drug intervention group.The expression of Drp1 and Mfn2 was downregulated,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion HM can reduce the mitochoudrial membrane potential and ATP levels by accumulating ROS,there by activating the caspase-3 apoptosis pathway and promoting cell apoptosis.Mitochondrial fusion division may be involved in the damage of PC12 cells caused by HM,initiating apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway.

BACKGROUND:Artificially synthesized hydroxyapatite ceramic granules are widely used in clinical practice to repair large-volume bone defects.However,the osteogenic effect of hydroxyapatite ceramic granules prepared by high-temperature sintering is limited by their low degradability and bioactivity. OBJECTIVE:To prepare biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules by a novel low-temperature deposition technique,and to characterize their physicochemical properties and cytocompatibility. METHODS:Biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules were prepared using a modified supersaturated calcium phosphate mineralization solution and a repeated settling and decantation washing method.Hydroxyapatite bioceramic granules were used as the control.The morphology and phase composition of the granules were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.The specific surface area,porosity distribution,hardness and hydrophilicity of the granules were characterized by BET-N2 method,hardness test,and contact angle test.The adsorption properties of the granules for bovine serum albumin and fetal bovine serum protein were determined by bicinchoninic acid assay.The two kinds of granules or granule extracts were co-cultured with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells,and the cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy showed that the surface of the two kinds of particles was slightly rough and accompanied by tiny particles,the surface of the hydroxyapatite bioceramic particles was dense and smooth,and the biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules were mainly composed of needle/plate crystals with non-uniform nanometer size,and formed a nanopore structure between the crystals.X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy exhibited that compared with hydroxyapatite bioceramic granules,biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules had smaller crystalline particles,lower crystallinity,and more binding water and carbonic acid groups.Compared with hydroxyapatite bioceramic granules,biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules had higher specific surface area,better hydrophilicity,lower hardness,and higher protein adsorption capacity.(2)The results of MTT assay showed that the two kinds of granule extracts had no cytotoxicity,human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells survived well on the surface of the two kinds of granules,and the biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules had stronger cell proliferation activity.(3)These findings indicate that compared with hydroxyapatite bioceramic granules,biomimetically precipitated nanocrystalline calcium phosphate granules have better physicochemical properties and cytocompatibility.

Objective To analyze the prognosis and influencing factors in patients with radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 52 patients with RAIR-DTC who underwent ineffective ¹³¹I therapy at the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October 2016 to January 2020. Patients were categorized into progression and stable groups based on disease progression within five years post-treatment. Differences between groups were analyzed using chi-square test and logistic regression. Independent prognostic risk factors were identified using a Cox proportional hazards model. The Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test was used to evaluate the impact of treatment on the prognosis of the progression group. Results The 3-year and 5-year survival rates of the 52 patients with RAIR-DTC were 88.5% and 73.1%, respectively. In the progression group, the rates were 81.8% and 57.6%. In the stable group, the rates were 100% and 100%. There were significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, presence of extrathyroidal extension, and the initial ¹³¹I treatment dose (P < 0.05). Univariate analysis indicated that the age, pre-ablation stimulated thyroglobulin level before the first ¹³¹I treatment, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio before the first treatment, and the sites of recurrence and metastasis were significantly associated with overall survival (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age > 55 years (HR=12.40, 95% CI= 2.09-73.57, P=0.001) and distant metastasis (HR=24.47, 95% CI=4.17-143.75, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for poor prognosis. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that local surgery and/or targeted therapy significantly prolonged progression-free survival in the progression group (P < 0.001). Conclusion The prognosis for RAIR-DTC is poor, with advanced age and distant metastasis significantly associated with unfavorable outcomes. In elderly patients and those with extrathyroidal invasion, the treatment dose during initial ¹³¹I therapy may be appropriately increased to delay disease progression. For patients with disease progression, prompt local surgical intervention and/or targeted therapy is recommended.

Objective:To investigate the perinatal outcomes and risk factors of perinatal complications in preg-nant women with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM).Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on clini-cal data of 100 pregnant women with HCM who delivered in Obstetrical Cardiology Intensive Care Center of Shanghai Renji Hospital between Jan.2000 and Dec.2022.Analyze the incidence of perinatal complications inclu-ding miscarriage,premature birth,small for gestational age infants,neonatal asphyxia,neonatal cardiac malforma-tions and perinatal mortality.Independent risk factors of perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM were identified using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression.Results:①The mean age was 29.21±4.41 years old,the average gestational age upon admission is 34.46±6.43 weeks.There were 16 patients with a fam-ily history of cardiomyopathy(16％),21 cases with obstructive HCM(21％)and 79 cases of non-obstructive HCM(79％),91 cases with abnormal ECG(91％),mainly with ST-T changes(77 cases,77％).The average in-terventricular septum was 19.39±6.13mm by echocardiography.②Among the 100 pregnancies of 100 HCM pa-tients,6 cases(6％)were miscarriages,94 newborns survived(94％),including 91 cases of cesarean section(91％)and 3 cases of vaginal delivery(3％).The predominant perinatal complications were preterm delivery(39 cases,39％),small for gestational age(5 cases,5％),neonatal asphyxia(3 cases,3％)and neonatal cardiac malformation(2 cases,2％).There were no perinatal deaths.③Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pre pregnancy heart function ≥ Grade Ⅱ,increased left atrial diameter,and concomitant pulmonary hyperten-sion were risk factors for perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM(OR＞1,P＜0.05).Multivariate Lo-gistic regression analysis found that pre pregnancy heart function ≥ Grade Ⅱ was an independent risk factor for predicting the occurrence of perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM(OR 6.270,P＜0.05).Conclu-sions:HCM during pregnancy can induce poor perinatal outcome.More attention should be paid to risk assess-ment and pregnancy management.Early detection of risk factors can reduce the incidence of perinatal complica-tions.

Objective We propose a motion artifact correction algorithm(DMBL)for reducing motion artifacts in reconstructed dental cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT)images based on deep blur learning.Methods A blur encoder was used to extract motion-related degradation features to model the degradation process caused by motion,and the obtained motion degradation features were imported in the artifact correction module for artifact removal.The artifact correction module adopts a joint learning framework for image blur removal and image blur simulation for treatment of spatially varying and random motion patterns.Comparative experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method using both simulated motion data sets and clinical data sets.Results The experimental results with the simulated dataset showed that compared with the existing methods,the PSNR of the proposed method increased by 2.88%,the SSIM increased by 0.89%,and the RMSE decreased by 10.58%.The results with the clinical dataset showed that the proposed method achieved the highest expert level with a subjective image quality score of 4.417(in a 5-point scale),significantly higher than those of the comparison methods.Conclusion The proposed DMBL algorithm with a deep blur joint learning network structure can effectively reduce motion artifacts in dental CBCT images and achieve high-quality image restoration.
