Objective:To explore the stimulation conditions,optimal culture time and infection time of C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells in vitro,so as to improve the infection efficiency of CD 19 chimeric antigen receptor T cells(mCD19 CAR-T).Methods:Purified C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells were cultured in anti-CD3/CD28 coated,anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 and anti-CD3 coated,respectively.The cells were stimulated in above three conditions for 12 h and 24 h,following with 24 h,48 h and 72 h incubation and then the number of cell clones was recorded.C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells were stimulated for 12 h,24 h,and 36 h under the above three conditions,then interleukin(IL)-2(100 U/ml)was added.The number of cell clones was recorded under microscope at 24 h,48 h,and 72 h of culture.After 24 h of stimulation,CD3+T cells derived from C57BL/6J mice were infected with retrovirus for 48 h to establish mCD19 CAR-T cells,and the percentage of GFP+CAR-T cells was detected by flow cytometry.Results:The infection efficiency of mCD19 CAR-T cells derived from C57BL/6J mice was only 5.23％under the optimized conditions of mCD19 CAR-T cells derived from BALB/c mice.The number of clones of C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells was the highest in anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 group after stimulated for 24 h and followed cultured for 48 h.After 24 hours of stimulation under the above conditions and 48 hours of culture with IL-2,the number of T cell proliferating clones in the anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 group was significantly increased compared with the same group without IL-2,and the infection efficiency of CAR-T cells in this group reached 17.63％±4.17％.Conclusion:The optimal conditions for constructing CAR-T cells from C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells are different from those of BABL/c mice.T cells stimulated by anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28+IL-2 can obtain mCD19 CAR-T cells with the highest efficiency after retrovirus infection.

Aim To construct a DC-targeted modified(lacto-N-fucop-entose Ⅲ,LewisX)Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA)DNA vaccine PLGA nanoparticle(LewisX-PLGA)loading PA PcrV and OprF genes combination,and provide a new idea for the prevention of PA clinical infection.Methods The PLGA nano-particles loading PA PcrV and OprF combined DNA(PLGA+PcrV/OprF)or loading pEGFP(PLGA+pEGFP)were pre-pared by double emulsification-solvent evaporation method.On this basis,the DC-SIGN-targeted ligand LewisX was connected to the surface of PLGA nanoparticles by amide condensation reac-tion.LewisX-modified PLGA-PcrV/OprF(LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF)and LewisX-modified PLGA-pEGFP(LewisX-PL-GA+pEGFP)were prepared.Particle size,Zeta potential,en-capsulation rate and drug loading were evaluated to characterize LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF.The cytotoxicity of LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF was investigated by CCK-8.DC targeting of LewisX-PLGA+pEGFP was validated in vitro transfection.Further,LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF lysosome escape was used to evalu-ate the targeting performance of LewisX-modified PLGA nanopar-ticles loading DNA in vitro.The immunoefficacy of the nanopar-ticles was evaluated by detecting the level of lymphocyte prolifer-ation,humoral immunity and immune protection.Results The diameter of LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF was(201.17±1.6)nm.The encapsulation efficiency of LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF was(85.72±5.3)％.The Zeta potential of LewisX-PLGA+PcrV/OprF was+(31.17±1.8)mV.In the DC2.4 cytotoxici-ty test,the cell survival rates were above 85％.The results of fluorescence microscopy after LewisX-PLGA+pEGFP transfec-tion in vitro showed that LewisX-PLGA+pEGFP was more readi-ly taken up by DC2.4,and LewisX-PLGA+pEGFP had a DC-SIGN specific targeting performance.The CLSM's observation of LewisX-PLGA+Pcrv/OprF showed that more DNA escaped from the lysosome into the cytoplasm.The results suggested that LewisX-PLGA had DC2.4 targeting performance.Because DC2.4 cells endocyted more LewisX-PLGA+Pcrv/OprF into the lysosome,the amount of DNA carried by the nanoparticles esca-ping into the cytoplasm increased.in vivo immune results showed that the lymphocyte proliferation level and antibody titer level of targeted DNA vaccine increased significantly,further improved the survival rate of mice infected with acute pneumoni-a,and reduced the bacterial load of mouse lungs.Conclusions The DC-SIGN-targeted aptamer-modified PA DNA vaccine nanoparticle LewisX-PLGA can be successfully constructed.It promotes the transfection of DNA into DC.It promotes the endo-cytosis of PA DNA vaccine into the DC lysosome and the escape of PA DNA into the cytoplasm.This results in a significant im-mune response in body,which enhances the protective efficacy of vaccine.

Aim To observe the effect of Gupi Xiaoji Decoction (GPXJY) on the structure and function of mitochondria of human hepatoma cell HepG2 cells and explore its possible mechanism. Methods CCK8 was used to detect cell proliferation, Mito-Tracker Green fluorescence staining was used to observe the mitochondrial structure, flow cytometry was used to detect the membrane potential, Elisa was used to detect the ATP content, fluoroscopic electron microscopy was used to observe the microstructure changes, and high-content screening(HCS) was used to detect the related proteins. Results Fluorescence staining showed that GPXJY damaged the mitochondria of HepG2 cells and decreased the content of ATP. The results of flow cytometry showed that GPXJY could reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential of HepG2 cells. The results of electron microscope showed that GPXJY made the mitochondria of cancer cells swell and so on. HCS found that GPXJY significantly reduced the average fluorescence intensity of Bcl-2 in HepG2 cells, and significantly increased the average fluorescence intensity of apoptosis promoting proteins Bax, cytochrome-c, caspase-3 and cleaved-caspase-3, which was statistically significant. Conclusion GPXJY can regulate the structure and function of mitochondria in HepG2 cells.

COVID-19 has been prevalent for three years. The virulence of SARS-CoV-2 is weaken as it mutates continuously. However, elderly patients, especially those with underlying diseases, are still at high risk of developing severe infections. With the continuous study of the molecular structure and pathogenic mechanism of SARS-CoV-2, antiviral drugs for COVID-19 have been successively marketed, and these anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs can effectively reduce the severe rate and mortality of elderly patients. This article reviews the mechanism, clinical medication regimens, drug interactions and adverse reactions of five small molecule antiviral drugs currently approved for marketing in China, so as to provide advice for the clinical rational use of anti-SARS-CoV-2 in the elderly.

Formaldehyde, as an important pollutant in indoor air, has always been of great concern. In the newly issued "Standards for indoor air quality (GB/T 18883-2022)", the standard limit of formaldehyde has been restricted to 0.08 mg/m³. In order to better promote the implementation and application of this new standard, this study reviewed and interpreted the relevant technical content for determining the standard limit, including the indoor concentration and human exposure levels of formaldehyde, the health effects of formaldehyde, and the derivation of safety reference values. It also proposed prospect for the future development and revision of quality standards for formaldehyde in indoor air.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate and analyze the risk factors of massive hemorrhage in patients with renal cell carcinoma and venous tumor thrombus undergoing radical nephrectomy and removal of venous tumor thrombus. METHODS: From January 2014 to June 2020, 241 patients with renal cancer and tumor thrombus in a single center of urology at Peking University Third Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent radical nephrectomy and removal of venous tumor thrombus. The relevant preoperative indicators, intraoperative conditions, and postoperative data were statistically analyzed by using statistical software of SPSS 18.0. The main end point of the study was intraoperative bleeding volume greater than 2 000 mL. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the relevant influencing factors. First, single factor Logistic regression was used for preliminary screening of influencing factors, and variables with single factor Logistic regression analysis P < 0.05 were included in multivariate Logistic regression. In all statistical analyses, P < 0.05 is considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Among the 241 patients included, there were 60 cases of massive hemorrhage, 48 males and 12 females, with a median age of 62 years. The number of non-massive hemorrhage was 181. There were 136 males and 45 females, with a median age of 59 years. Univariate analysis showed that the clinical symptoms (both systemic and local symptoms, OR 2.794, 95%CI 1.087-7.181, P=0.033), surgical approach (open surgery, OR 9.365, 95%CI 4.447-19.72, P < 0.001), Mayo grade (Mayo 3-4, OR 5.257, 95%CI 2.806-10.886, P < 0.001), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score (ASA level 3, OR 2.842, 95%CI 1.338-6.036, P=0.007), preoperative hemoglobin (OR 0.978, 95%CI 0.965-0.991, P=0.001), preoperative platelet count (OR 0.996, 95%CI 0.992-1.000, P=0.037), maximum tumor thrombus width (OR 1.061, 95%CI 1.033-1.091, P < 0.001), Complicated with bland thrombus (OR 4.493, 95%CI 2.264-8.915, P < 0.001), adrenalectomy (OR 3.101, 95%CI 1.614-5.958, P=0.001), segmental resection of the inferior vena cava (OR 2.857, 95%CI 1.395-5.852, P=0.004). There was a statistically significant difference in these aspects(P < 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference in surgical approach (open surgery, OR 6.730, 95%CI 2.947-15.368;P < 0.001), Mayo grade (Mayo 3-4, OR 2.294, 95%CI 1.064-4.948, P=0.034), Complicated with bland thrombus (OR 3.236, 95%CI 1.492-7.020, P=0.003). CONCLUSION Combining the results of univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis, the surgical approach, Mayo grade, and tumor thrombus combined with conventional thrombus were associated risk factors for massive hemorrhage during surgery for renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus. Patients who undergo open surgery, high Mayo grade, and tumor thrombus combined with conventional thrombus are at a relatively higher risk of massive hemorrhage.

Objective: To establish a predictive model for survival benefit of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) who received adjuvant chemotherapy after radical resection. Methods: The clinical and pathological data of 249 patients with ICC who underwent radical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy at 8 hospitals in China from January 2010 to December 2018 were retrospectively collected. There were 121 males and 128 females,with 88 cases>60 years old and 161 cases≤60 years old. Feature selection was performed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Overall survival time and survival status were used as outcome indicators,then target clinical features were selected. Patients were stratified into high-risk group and low-risk group,survival differences between the two groups were analyzed. Using the selected clinical features, the traditional CoxPH model and deep learning DeepSurv survival prediction model were constructed, and the performance of the models were evaluated according to concordance index(C-index). Results: Portal vein invasion, carcinoembryonic antigen>5 μg/L,abnormal lymphocyte count, low grade tumor pathological differentiation and positive lymph nodes>0 were independent adverse prognostic factors for overall survival in 249 patients with adjuvant chemotherapy after radical resection (all P<0.05). The survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in the high-risk group was significantly lower than that in the low-risk group (P<0.05). Using the above five features, the traditional CoxPH model and the deep learning DeepSurv survival prediction model were constructed. The C-index values of the training set were 0.687 and 0.770, and the C-index values of the test set were 0.606 and 0.763,respectively. Conclusion: Compared with the traditional Cox model, the DeepSurv model can more accurately predict the survival probability of patients with ICC undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy at a certain time point, and more accurately judge the survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objectives: To construct a nomogram for prediction of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) lymph node metastasis based on inflammation-related markers,and to conduct its clinical verification. Methods: Clinical and pathological data of 858 ICC patients who underwent radical resection were retrospectively collected at 10 domestic tertiary hospitals in China from January 2010 to December 2018. Among the 508 patients who underwent lymph node dissection,207 cases had complete variable clinical data for constructing the nomogram,including 84 males,123 females,109 patients≥60 years old,98 patients<60 years old and 69 patients were pathologically diagnosed with positive lymph nodes after surgery. Receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to calculate the accuracy of preoperative imaging examinations to determine lymph node status,and the difference in overall survival time was compared by Log-rank test. Partial regression squares and statistically significant preoperative variables were screened by backward stepwise regression analysis. R software was applied to construct a nomogram,clinical decision curve and clinical influence curve,and Bootstrap method was used for internal verification. Moreover,retrospectively collecting clinical information of 107 ICC patients with intraoperative lymph node dissection admitted to 9 tertiary hospitals in China from January 2019 to June 2021 was for external verification to verify the accuracy of the nomogram. 80 patients with complete clinical data but without lymph node dissection were divided into lymph node metastasis high-risk group and low-risk group according to the score of the nomogram among the 858 patients. Log-rank test was used to compare the overall survival of patients with or without lymph node metastasis diagnosed by pathology. Results: The area under the curve of preoperative imaging examinations for lymph node status assessment of 440 patients was 0.615,with a false negative rate of 62.8% (113/180) and a false positive rate of 14.2% (37/260). The median survival time of 207 patients used to construct a nomogram with positive or negative postoperative pathological lymph node metastases was 18.5 months and 27.1 months,respectively (P<0.05). Five variables related to lymph node metastasis were screened out by backward stepwise regression analysis,which were combined calculi,neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio,albumin,liver capsule invasion and systemic immune inflammation index,according to which a nomogram was constructed with concordance index(C-index) of 0.737 (95%CI: 0.667 to 0.806). The C-index of external verification was 0.674 (95%CI:0.569 to 0.779). The calibration prediction curve was in good agreement with the reference curve. The results of the clinical decision curve showed that when the risk threshold of high lymph node metastasis in the nomogram was set to about 0.32,the maximum net benefit could be obtained by 0.11,and the cost/benefit ratio was 1∶2. The results of clinical influence curve showed that when the risk threshold of high lymph node metastasis in the nomogram was set to about 0.6,the probability of correctly predicting lymph node metastasis could reach more than 90%. There was no significant difference in overall survival time between patients with high/low risk of lymph node metastasis assessed by the nomogram and those with pathologically confirmed lymph node metastasis or without lymph node metastasis (Log-rank test:P=0.082 and 0.510,respectively). Conclusion: The prediction accuracy of preoperative nomogram for ICC lymph node metastasis based on inflammation-related markers is satisfactory,which can be used as a supplementary method for preoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastasis and is helpful for clinicians to make personalized decision of lymph node dissection for patients with ICC.

Pediatric acute hyperextension spinal cord injury (SCI) named as PAHSCI by us, is a special type of thoracolumbar SCI without radiographic abnormality and highly related to back-bend in dance training, which has been increasingly reported. At present, it has become the leading cause of SCI in children, and brings a heavy social and economic burden. Both domestic and foreign academic institutions and dance education organizations lack a correct understanding of PAHSCI and relevant standards, specifications or guidelines. In order to provide standardized guidance, the expert team formulated this guideline based on the principles of science and practicability, starting from the diagnosis, differential diagnosis, etiology, admission evaluation, treatment, complications and prevention. This guideline puts forward 23 recommendations for 14 related issues.
