Objective To investigate the transcriptome differences of ovarian cancer cells after cisplatin(DDP)resistance,and to find potential antagonists based on this screening.Methods DDP-resistant cell line A2780-DDP was constructed with A2780 cells as the research object.Through transcriptome sequencing anal-ysis,the key factors of DDP resistance were found and verified by quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR)and Western blot experiments.Through the screening of small molecule inhibitors,CCK-8 cell viability assay was used to find potential antagonists.Results A2780-DDP were successfully constructed,and it was found that there was no difference in cell proliferation after drug resistance,but the ability of cell invasion and migration was enhanced.Through transcriptome sequencing analysis,it was found that ITGB7 and Akt may be the key genes of A2780-DDP,and qPCR and Western blot showed that they were highly expressed in A2780-DDP.CCK-8 results showed that triptolide(TPL)and Olaparib had good inhibitory effects in DDP-resistant cell lines.Conclusion The ITGB7/Akt pathway plays an important role in DDP resistance,and potential DDP re-sistance antagonists such as TPL can provide new ideas for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

BACKGROUND:Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with chronic rheumatic immunity.Soft tissue ossification and fusion and spinal stiffness can cause biomechanical changes. OBJECTIVE:To reconstruct the lumbar-sacral intervertebral disc in ankylosing spondylitis patients with lumbar kyphosis by finite element analysis,and to study the range of motion of each segment of T11-S1 and the biomechanical characteristics of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus. METHODS:The imaging data were obtained from an ankylosing spondylitis patient with lumbar kyphosis.The original CT image data of continuously scanned spine were imported into Mimics 21.0 in DICOM format,and T11-S1 was reconstructed respectively.The established model was imported into 3-Matic software in the format of"Stl"to reconstruct the intervertebral disc,and the fibrous intervertebral disc model was obtained.The improved model was further imported into Hypermesh software,and the vertebra,nucleus pulposus,annulus fibrosus and ligament were mesh-divided.After the material properties were given,the model was imported into ABAQUS software to observe the range of motion of each vertebral body in seven different working conditions of T11-S1,and analyze the biomechanical characteristics of each segment of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The range of motion of L1 vertebrae was higher than that of other vertebrae under six different working conditions:extension,forward flexion,rotation(left and right),and lateral flexion(left and right).The maximum range of motion was 2.18° during L1 vertebral flexion,and the minimum range of motion was 0.12° during L5 vertebral extension.(2)The annular fiber flexion at L2-L3 segments was greater than the extension(P<0.05),and the annular fiber flexion at L3-L4 and L4-L5 segments was less than the extension(P<0.05).The left rotation of L1-L2 annular fibers was greater than the right rotation(P<0.05).The left flexion of the annulus was greater than the right flexion in L1-L2,L2-L3,L3-L4,L4-L5 and L5-S1 segments(P<0.05).(3)The nucleus pulposus stresses of T11-L12,L1-L2,L2-L3,L3-L4 and L4-L5 segments in forward flexion were greater than in extension(P<0.05).The left rotation of T12-L1 and L3-L4 segments was smaller than the right rotation(P<0.05),and that of T11-T12,L1-L2,and L2-L3 segments was larger than the right rotation(P<0.05).The left flexion was larger than the right flexion in the T11-S1 segment.(4)It is concluded that in ankylosing spondylitis patients with lumbar kyphosis,the minimum range of motion of the vertebral body is located at the L5 vertebral body in extension.To prevent fractures,it is recommended to avoid exercise in the extension position.During the onset of lumbar kyphosis in patients with ankylosing spondylitis,the maximum stress of the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus is located in the L1-L2 segment,which is fixed and will not alter with the change of body position.The late surgical treatment and correction of deformity should focus on releasing the pressure of the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in this segment to avoid the rupture of the annulus fibrosus and the injury of the nucleus pulposus.

Objective:To detect the expression levels of various immune cells in peripheral blood,and to ex-plore their relationship with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion(URSA)and its clinical significance in di-agnosis and treatment.Methods:A total of 351 patients with URSA who visited Hebei Reproductive Health Hospi-tal between January 2020 and September 2022 were enrolled as the URSA group,while a control group compri-sing 30 healthy women who had experienced uncomplicated term delivery once and had no history of adverse pregnancy outcomes during the same period was selected.The levels of various immune cell subsets in peripheral blood during the luteal phase were measured and compared between the two groups.Receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to determine the optimal cutoff values of immune cell levels that could assist in URSA diagnosis and treatment,while logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors influ-encing URSA occurrence.Results:The number and percentage of CD3+CD8+cells in the peripheral blood of the URSA group were significantly lower compared to those in the control group(P<0.05).Conversely,the per-centage of NK cells was significantly higher in the URSA group than in the control group(P<0.05).Logistic re-gression analysis revealed that the increase in CD3+CD8+cell count in peripheral blood during the luteal phase was a protective factor of URSA(OR<1,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis determined optimal cutoff values for im-mune cell levels to assist in the diagnosing and treating URSA:702.82 cells/μl for CD3+CD8+cell count,28.39%for CD3+CD8+cell percentage,and 12.33%for NK cell percentage.After using the optimal cutoff value to convert continuous variables into binary variables,Logistic regression analysis showed that a CD3+CD8+cell count<702.82 cells/μl and an NK cell percentage>12.33%were independent risk factors for URSA(OR>1,P<0.05).Conclusions:The decrease of CD3+CD8+cells in peripheral blood during midluteal phase is closely related to the occurrence of URSA.The number of CD3+CD8+cells(702.82 cells/μl)and the percentage of NK cells(12.33%)can be used as reference values for the diagnosis and treatment of URSA.

Objective:To evaluate clinical efficacy and safety of immunotherapy by retrospectively analyzing clinical medica-tion of patients with recurrent pregnancy loss(RPL)complicated with abnormal immune factors.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on RPL cases in outpatient department of Hebei Reproductive Health Hospital from January 2021 to April 2022.Efficacy and safety of immunotherapy were evaluated from pregnancy outcome,adverse reactions and birth defects of offspring.Results:According to guidelines,192 cases with abnormal autoimmunity and/or immune indicators were included.Early abortion rate was 4.16%in group of two lost pregnancies,which was lower than that in group of three lost pregnancies(16.66%).Twelve week sus-tained pregnancy rate was 89.58%in the former group,and 28 week sustained pregnancy rate was 86.45%,which were significantly higher than those in the latter group(75.00%,71.87%).RPL patients were divided into groups according to their exposure to immuno-modulatory drugs before 12 weeks of pregnancy.There was no significant difference in pregnancy outcome,adverse reaction rate and birth defect rate of their offspring(P>0.05).Conclusion:Immunotherapy can effectively reduce risk of recurrent abortion and increase rate of persistent pregnancy in patients with immune RPL.Personalized immunotherapy can make RPL patients with immune factors achieve expected effect of fetal protection.
