Objective:To explore the genetic characteristics and evolution of hantavirus carried by rodents in port area of Ningde in Fujian province in the summer of 2020.Methods:Rodents were captured in the port area of Ningde, the RNA was extracted from rodent lung tissues and detected by using specific kit. The positive samples were used for whole-genome sequencing of the virus. Bioinformatics software was used for the analysis on the similarity and genetic variation of the sequences.Results:A total of 112 rodents were captured, including 5 Rattus norvegicus and 2 Rattus flavipectus, the positive rate of hantavirus was 6.25% (7/112). By virus gene sequencing, two hantavirus complete genome sequences were obtained (named as FJ35 and FJ36, GenBank accession numbers: MW449188-MW449193). The genetic analysis results showed that the hantavirus detected in positive samples were SEOV and shared 99% nucleotide similarity with hantavirus strains LZSF21 and JX20140581 isolated from Shandong province. Phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method showed that the hantavirus detected in positive samples belonged to S3 subtype, sharing the same subtype with hantavirus strains Z37 from Zhejiang province, LZSF21 from Shandong province, and zy27 and Gongzhuling 415 from northeastern China. Compared with FJ372, the amino acid variation of N259S was observed at sites 251-264 of nucleoprotein, which might be related to antigenicity. Another variation of Q81R was observed in glycoprotein compared with SEOV 80-39 segment of coded amino acid of international reference strain, which might also cause the change in antigenicity. Conclusion:The high positive rate of hantavirus in rodents in the port area of Ningde- would increase the risk of natural human infection and epidemic in local area. The hantavirus positive rodents in this focus might be from an endemic area in Shandong. It is necessary to strengthen the imported rodent control in the port area of Ningde. The virus detected in 2 positive samples belonged to SEOV subtype Ⅲ and shared high homologies of nucleotides and amino acid sequences with the hantavirus strains in surrounding area. However, some slight variations occurred in glycoprotein and nucleoprotein amino acid sequences, which might cause changes in its antigeniity.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive status of fatigue among patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) in the community and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From May to July 2020, a total of 250 patients with CHD in the community were selected as the research objects by multi-stage sampling method. The general information questionnaire and Fatigue Cognition Questionnaire for Patients with CHD were used for investigation. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors. A total of 250 questionnaires were distributed and 245 were effectively recovered.Results:The total score of fatigue cognition of 245 patients with CHD in the community was 6 (4, 7) . Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the total scores of fatigue cognition among community CHD patients with different education level, duration of disease, grading of cardiac function, whether pay attention to fatigue knowledge, number of combined chronic diseases and treatment methods ( P<0.05) . Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level, duration of disease, whether pay attention to fatigue knowledge, number of combined chronic diseases and treatment methods were the main influencing factors on fatigue cognition of CHD patients in the community ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The cognition of patients with CHD in the community on fatigue needs to be improved, and community medical workers should take corresponding measures to increase the attention and active response of patients with CHD to fatigue.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the inhibitory effects of total alkaloids of Gelsemium elegans （TAG） on the proliferation and angiogenesis of human colon cancer cells. METHODS ：Human colon cancer cell line HT- 29 and HUVEC were cultured in vitro . After the intervention of low- ，medium-，high-dose TAG （40，80，120 μg/mL），the morphology of the two cells was observed by fluorescence inversion microscope. The survival rate of HT- 29 cells and HUVEC was detected by CCK- 8 assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect HT- 29 cell cycle. The migration rate ，invasion rate and tube number of HUVEC were observed by scratching test ，Transwell invasion experiment and tube formation experiment. RESULTS ：Compared with blank group ，HT-29 cells and HUVEC were decreased to different extents in TAG groups ；dead cells were observed ，and the survival rate of both decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The proportion of HT- 29 cells at G 2/M phase in TAG groups as well as those at G 0/G1 phase in medium-dose group were increased significantly ；the proportion of HT- 29 cells at S phase in TAG groups as well as those at G 0/G1 phase in high-dose group were decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Survival rate ，migration rate and invasion rate of HUVEC were decreased significantly in TAG groups ，and tube number was also decreased significantly at each time point during 4-24 h（P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：TAG have inhibitory effect on the proliferation of human colon cancer HT- 29 cells and HUVEC，can change HT- 29 cell cycle ，inhibit the migration ，invasion and tube formation of HUVEC.

Mutations or inactivation of parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, are associated with familial form or sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD), respectively, which manifested with the selective vulnerability of neuronal cells in substantia nigra (SN) and striatum (STR) regions. However, the underlying molecular mechanism linking parkin with the etiology of PD remains elusive. Here we report that p62, a critical regulator for protein quality control, inclusion body formation, selective autophagy and diverse signaling pathways, is a new substrate of parkin. P62 levels were increased in the SN and STR regions, but not in other brain regions in parkin knockout mice. Parkin directly interacts with and ubiquitinates p62 at the K13 to promote proteasomal degradation of p62 even in the absence of ATG5. Pathogenic mutations, knockdown of parkin or mutation of p62 at K13 prevented the degradation of p62. We further showed that parkin deficiency mice have pronounced loss of tyrosine hydroxylase positive neurons and have worse performance in motor test when treated with 6-hydroxydopamine hydrochloride in aged mice. These results suggest that, in addition to their critical role in regulating autophagy, p62 are subjected to parkin mediated proteasomal degradation and implicate that the dysregulation of parkin/p62 axis may involve in the selective vulnerability of neuronal cells during the onset of PD pathogenesis.

Objective With a network meta-analysis,to compare the effects and safety of seven clinically common-used induction methods.Methods Publications of randomized controlled trials between January 1,1980 and November 20,2011 were searched on Medline,Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials with the following terms including dinoprostone,misoprostol,Foley catheter,oxytocin and labor induction.A network meta analysis with both direct and indirect comparison was applied for 48 randomized controlled trials (19 819 participants) recruited,and the following seven induction methods applied in the publications were compared:oxytocin (intravenous,Ⅳ),vaginal dinoprostone,intracervical dinoprostone,oral misoprostol,vaginal misoprostol,sublingual misoprostol and foley catheter.The main outcomes were the proportion of vaginal delivery within 24 hours,cesarean section rate,uterine hyperstimulation rate and Apgar score＜7 at 5 min after birth.Medline,Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched between January 1,1980 and November 20,2011.Results Foley catheter methods had the lowest cesarean section rate and the lowest uterine hyperstimulation rate.Vaginal misoprostol method had the highest number of vaginal delivery within 24 hours,but the highest uterine hyperstimulation rate.The lowest rate of neonatal Apgar score＜7 at 5 min was found in women using sublingual misoprostol,while the highest in those using vaginal Dinoprostone.Oxytocin (Ⅳ) method had the lowest number of vaginal delivery within 24 hours and the highest cesarean section rate.Conclusion Foley catheter method is the best available option for labor induction in terms of efficacy and safety,while the induction effect of oxytocin (Ⅳ) was not good enough.Vaginal misoprostol and vaginal dinoprostone methods had relative good induction effect but with obvious adverse effects.

Objective: To study the relationship between FAT10 expression and biological behaviors in inif trating ductal carcinoma of breast. Methods: The expressions of diubiquitin (FAT10), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and c-erbB2 in 50 cases of inif trating ductal carcinoma of breast were detected by immunohistochemistry. Western blot was used to detect FAT10 expression in MB-MDA-435, MB-MDA-435-transfected with FAT10 siRNA expression plasmid, MCF-7 and MCF-7-transfected with FAT10 expression plasmid, respectively. Transwell was used to detect invasion capability of MB-MDA-435, MB-MDA-435-transfected with FAT10 siRNA expression plasmid, MCF-7 and MCF-7-transfected with FAT10 expression plasmid. Results: hTe expression intensity of FAT10 was signiifcantly correlated to patho-grading, lymph nodes metastasis, distant metastasis and TNM staging (P<0.01), but not to age of patients and tumor sizes in iniftrating ductal carcinoma of breast (P>0.05). hTe expression intensity of FAT10 in receptor- negative group was obviously stronger than that in receptor- positive group (P<0.01). hTe expression intensity of FAT10 in triple-negative breast cancer was signiifcantly stronger than that in non- triple-negative breast cancer (P<0.01). hTe survival rate of patients with FAT10 positive expression was significantly lower than negative ones (P<0.05). Western blot results showed that FAT10 intensity in MB-MDA-435 significantly higher than that in MCF-7. Up-regulation expression of FAT10 could obviously increase the invasion capability of MCF-7, and down-regulation of FAT10 could signiifcantly decrease the invasion capability of MB-MDA-435 (P<0.01). Conclusion: FAT10 might increase the invasion capability of breast cancer cells by direct or indirect ways, and play an important role in invasion and metastasis of breast cancer. FAT10 might be an independent index for evaluation of breast cancer prognosis, and a potential target for breast cancer therapy, especially for triple-negative breast cancer.
