Aim To investigate the effect of miR-141-5p/ZNF705A in chronic myeloid leukemia(CML)cell-derived exosome(Exo)on the adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs). Methods The morphology and size of Exo in peripheral blood from CML patients and K562 cells were examined by electron microscopy and NTA particle size analysis. The expressions of Exo and BMSCs marker molecules and adhesion proteins in K562 cells were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot before and after transfection. The adhesion ability of BMSCs was detected by cell adhesion assay, and the cellular activity of BMSCs was examined using CCK-8. miR-141-5p binding to ZNF705A was detected by luciferase assay. Results qRT-PCR results showed that miR-141-5p expression was significantly reduced in both CML patients and K562 cell-derived Exo. qRT-PCR, Western blot and other results showed that BMSCs in CML patients had significantly reduced the expression of adhesion proteins CD44 and CXCL12, and were able to phagocytose K562 cell-derived Exo. Further, K562-derived Exo was found to reduce CD44 and CXCL12 expression and adhesion in Exo-promoted BMSCs compared with CD34+ cells. Meanwhile, the results of dual luciferase reporter assay verified that miR-141-5p targeted binding to ZNF705A. Finally, we found ZNF705A could be targeted by up-regulating miR-141-5p expression in Exo of K562 cells, which in turn inhibited the adhesion of BMSCs. Conclusions K562 cells down-regulate miR-141-5p expression in Exo and inhibit the adhesion function of BMSCs by targeting ZNF705A, thus regulating the bone marrow hematopoietic function in CML patients.

The COVID-19 epidemic has spread to the whole world for three years and has had a serious impact on human life, health and economic activities. China's epidemic prevention and control has gone through the following stages: emergency unconventional stage, emergency normalization stage, and the transitional stage from the emergency normalization to the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category B" normalization, and achieved a major and decisive victory. The designated hospitals for prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin has successfully completed its tasks in all stages of epidemic prevention and control, and has accumulated valuable experience. This article summarizes the experience of constructing a hospital infection prevention and control system during the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category A" period in designated hospital. The experience is summarized as the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system, namely "three rings" outside, middle and inside, "three districts" of green, orange and red, "three things" before, during and after the event, "two-day pre-purification" and "two-director system", and "one zone" management. In emergency situations, we adopt a simplified version of the cluster hospital infection prevention and control system. In emergency situations, a simplified version of the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system can be adopted. This system has the following characteristics: firstly, the system emphasizes the characteristics of "cluster" and the overall management of key measures to avoid any shortcomings. The second, it emphasizes the transformation of infection control concepts to maximize the safety of medical services through infection control. The third, it emphasizes the optimization of the process. The prevention and control measures should be comprehensive and focused, while also preventing excessive use. The measures emphasize the use of the least resources to achieve the best infection control effect. The fourth, it emphasizes the quality control work of infection control, pays attention to the importance of the process, and advocates the concept of "system slimming, process fattening". Fifthly, it emphasizes that the future development depends on artificial intelligence, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of prevention and control to the greatest extent. Sixth, hospitals need to strengthen continuous training and retraining. We utilize diverse training methods, including artificial intelligence, to ensure that infection control policies and procedures are simple. We have established an evaluation and feedback mechanism to ensure that medical personnel are in an emergency state at all times.

Objective:To explore the genes related to primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and signaling pathways as well as the possible clinical significance.Methods:A total of 3 mRNA expression datasets of PMF (GSE26049, GSE61629 and GSE53482) were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, including the data of peripheral blood samples from 55 PMF patients and 58 controls. The differentially expressed genes (DEG) between PMF patients and the controls were identified by using online tool GEO2R. Gene ontology (GO) annotation, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the common DEG of the 3 datasets, and then protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed. The key nodes of the common DEG in PPI network were calculated by using MCC method and Degree method in cytoHubba program; finally the top 10 hub genes were selected and the hub genes shared by the 2 methods were obtained. Peripheral blood samples of 25 PMF patients and 10 controls (normal hematopoietic stem cell transplant donors or iron deficiency anemia patients) admitted to the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from September 2017 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected. Reverse transcription-fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of 10 screened common hub genes in each sample, and the expressions of all genes at transcriptional level of the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 239 common DEG between PMF patients and the controls were screened out in the 3 datasets, including 153 downregulated DEG and 86 upregulated DEG. The GO enrichment analysis showed that the common downregulated DEG were significantly enriched in negative regulation of transcription, translation and fibroblast proliferation, while the upregulated DEG were mainly enriched in protein ubiquitination and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. The KEGG pathway analysis indicated that the upregulated common DEG and downregulated common DEG were both enriched in PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cancer pathways and transcriptional misregulation in cancer. There were 8 common hub genes shared by the 2 methods among the top 10 genes ranked by MCC and Degree methods, including 6 downregulated common DEG (TP53, MYC, ATM, FYN, PTPRC and ATRX) and 2 upregulated common DEG (VEGFA and FOXO3). These above 8 common hub genes were mainly involved in PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cell cycle and cancer transcriptional regulation signaling pathways. RT-qPCR detection of clinical peripheral blood samples showed that the relative expression levels of mRNA in 6 downregulated common DEG of PMF patients were lower compared with those in controls, while the differences were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05); the relative expression levels of mRNA in 2 upregulated common DEG of PMF patients were higher compared with those in controls, and the differences were statistically significant ( U value was 33.00, 36.00, respectively; P value was 0.021, 0.033, respectively). Conclusions:Bioinformatics and clinical sample verification show that VEGFA and FOXO3 are up-regulated in PMF patients, which are mainly involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cell cycle and cancer transcriptional regulation signaling pathway. Both genes may be related to the development of PMF and may become potential therapeutic targets.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of the controlling nutritional status (COUNT) score for the early prognosis of lung transplantation in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Methods:Retrospective collection of 154 patients with IPF who underwent lung transplantation at Wuxi People's Hospital,preoperative data including demographics,preoperative comorbidities,and last laboratory findings,intraoperative as well as postoperative complications were collected. The ability of COUNT score and other nutritional assessment tools to predict 30-day survival was assessed using ROC curves,survival curves for the low and high COUNT score groups were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method,and log-rank compared the difference in survival between the two groups. COX regression was also used to analyze independent risk factors for poor 30-day postoperative prognosis in IPF patients. Results:According to the division of COUNT score,there were 101 cases (65.6%) of preoperative combined malnutrition in IPF patients. COUNT score was more predictive of poor early 30-day prognosis in IPF lung transplant patients than BMI,Alb,and PNI indices. Using a cutoff value of 2.5 determined by ROC to divide the high group and low COUNT group,the 30-d and 90-d survival rates of the high COUNT group were lower than those of the low COUNT group (P<0.05). And the high COUNT group had a higher APACHE Ⅱ score 24h before ICU admission,a higher incidence of postoperative AKI,a longer duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation,and a longer duration of ECMO diversion (P<0.05). The multivariate COX regression analysis suggested that low COUNT score and obesity were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in IPF patients 30 days after lung transplantation. Conclusion:COUNT score is a predictor of poor prognosis in early lung transplantation,and nutritional assessment is essential before lung transplantation in patients with IPF.
