ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with oral cholangiopancreatography in the treatment of major duodenal papilla gallbladder polyps. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of eight patients with choledocholithiasis and gallbladder polyps who underwent ERCP and combined with oral cholangiopancreatography for major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy in Center of Digestive Endoscopy, Jilin People’s Hospital, from May 2022 to June 2024, and related data were collected, including the success rate of surgery, the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal, the superselective method of cystic duct, the time of operation, the time of gallbladder polyp removal, and surgical complications. ResultsBoth the success rate of surgery and the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal reached 100%, and of all eight patients, three patients used guide wire to enter the gallbladder under direct view, while five patients received oral cholangiopancreatography to directly enter the gallbladder. The time of operation was 51.88±12.34 minutes, and the time of gallbladder polyp removal was 23.13±10.94 minutes. The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2 — 8 mm, and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients, adenomatous polyps in one patient, and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2 — 27 months after surgery, and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.

BACKGROUND:Natural bone morphogenetic protein 2 disperses and degrades rapidly in vivo,reducing local concentration and therapeutic efficacy.Simply combining bone morphogenetic protein 2 with tissue engineering scaffolds could not stay in vivo for a long time,making it difficult to achieve good sustained and controlled release effects.OBJECTIVE:To prepare and test the biological properties and chondrogenic induction effect of collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold.METHODS:SD rat tail collagen was extracted and a collagen cartilage scaffold was prepared using a vacuum freeze-drying machine chemical crosslinking method.The plasmid expressing collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2 was constructed by rapid cloning C112 homologous recombination,constructed by genetic engineering,and introduced into E.coli,and then collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2 was isolated and purified.Natural bone morphogenetic protein 2 and collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2 were combined with collagen cartilage scaffolds,respectively,to detect the release level of bone morphogenetic protein 2 in the scaffolds.The biocompatibility of collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold was detected by CCK-8 assay and F-Actin staining.Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were implanted on two kinds of collagen cartilage scaffolds for chondrogenic induction,and their chondrogenic induction activity was tested.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The binding rate of collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2 to collagen cartilage scaffolds was higher than that of natural bone morphogenetic protein 2(P<0.05).After being immersed in PBS for 7 days in vitro,the release of bone morphogenetic protein 2 in the collagen-binding domain bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold was smaller than that in the natural bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold(P<0.05).The results of the CCK-8 assay and F-Actin staining showed that the collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold had no obvious cytotoxicity and had good biocompatibility.(2)After 14 days of chondrogenic induction,ELISA detection demonstrated that the expressions of agglutincan and type Ⅱ collagen A1 in the collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold group were higher than those in the natural bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold group(P<0.05).Under scanning electron microscopy,more bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were observed on the inner wall of the pores of the two groups of scaffolds,and the cell morphology and size were the same,and the cells were closely arranged,without cell fragmentation or abnormal morphology.(3)The results indicate that the collagen-binding domain-bone morphogenetic protein 2-collagen cartilage scaffold has good biological properties and chondrogenic induction activity.

Objective:Type H blood vessels are a subtype of bone-specific microvessels(CD31hiEmcnhi)that play an important regulatory role in the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis.Despite reports on the distinct roles of type H and L vessels under physiological and pathological bone conditions,their genetic differences remain to be elucidated.This study aims to construct a competitive endogenous RNA(ceRNA)network of key gene for differencial expression(DE)in type H and L vascular endothelial cells(ECs)through integrated bioinformatic methods. Methods:We downloaded relevant raw data from the ArrayExpress and the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database and used the Limma R-Bioconductor package to screen for DE lncRNAs,DE miRNAs,and DE mRNAs between type H and L vascular ECs.A total ceRNA network was constructed based on their interactions,followed by refinement using protein-protein interaction(PPI)networks to select upregulated and downregulated key genes.Enrichment analysis was performed on these key genes.Random validation was conducted using flow cytometry and real-time RT-PCR. Results:A total of 1 761 DE mRNAs,187 DE lncRNAs,and 159 DE miRNAs were identified,and a comprehensive ceRNA network was constructed based on their interactions.Six upregulated(Itga5,Kdr,Tjp1,Pecam1,Cdh5,and Ptk2)and 2 downregulated(Csf1r and Il10)key genes were selected via PPI network to construct a subnetwork of ceRNAs related to these key genes.Upregulated key genes were mainly enriched in negative regulation of angiogenesis and vascular apoptosis.Results from flow cytometry and real-time RT-PCR were consistent with bioinformatics analysis. Conclusion:This study proposes a ceRNA network associated with upregulated and downregulated type H and L vascular ECs based on selected key genes,providing new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of type H and L vascular ECs in bone metabolism.

Objective:To investigate the effect of GRIM-19 on the resistance of carcinoma cells to the chemotherapeutic agent docetaxel in the treatment of PCa.Methods:Using siRNA technology to interfere with the gene expression in PCa cells,we estab-lished a model of GRIM-19 overexpression/knockdown in PCa cells.We investigated the effect of different expression levels of GRIM-19 on docetaxel-induced death of the PCa cells by qPCR,Western blot and flow cytometry,and assessed the value of GRIM-19 in re-ducing the chemotherapy-resistance of PCa cells.Results:GRIM-19 was down-regulated in PCa tissues and cells.Knockout of GRIM-19 significantly decreased the expression of siGRIM19 in the PC-3 and LNCaP cells,and reduced their death rate when treated with docetaxel compared with the control group.The expressions of GRIM-19 mRNA and protein were remarkably upregulated after transfection with GRIM-19,and the overexpressed GRIM-19 promoted the death of the PC-3 and LNCaP cells treated with docetaxel in a dose-dependent manner.Flow cytometry analysis showed a lower apoptosis rate of PC-3-R cells than that of PC-3 cells at different time points of docetaxel-induction at different doses.Conclusion:GRIM-19 is a PCa suppressor gene with a significant facilitating effect on the apoptosis of PCa cells,and the overexpression of GRIM-19 promotes docetaxel-induced PCa cell death and improves the sensitivity of chemotherapy.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of imported malaria epidemic from overseas in Wuhan, to explore the management mechanism of on-site cases, and to accumulate experience for the treatment of imported malaria in large cities after malaria elimination. Methods The epidemiological data on imported malaria from abroad during the period of malaria elimination (2010-2019) in Wuhan were collected. The gender, age and severe illness-related factors of the cases were analyzed. Based on the characteristics of the epidemic and the current situation of prevention and control, the content and experience of the “Municipal-District 24-7” case mechanism were discussed. Results The medical resources in Wuhan were the best in the central region, resulting in a large number of imported malaria cases, with a total of 474 cases reported from 2010 to 2019 (40.79% of the total number of cases in Hubei Province), including 359 cases of falciparum malaria, 36 severe cases and one death (the death rate was 0.28%). The patients were mainly young and middle-aged men aged 20 to 49 years old (97.26%). There were many referral cases (40.30%), and there was no seasonal clustering of cases reported. The undiagnosed proportion at the first visit was 44.85%, and the time of attack-diagnosis was 4 days or more in 61.00% of cases. The occurrence of severe cases was related to unconfirmed diagnosis at the first visit (χ2=35.46, P<0.001) and attack-diagnosis time (Z=-6.49, P<0.001). Conclusion Imported malaria occurs frequently in Wuhan, mainly falciparum malaria. However, “Municipal-District 24-7” case mechanism has effectively curbed the occurrence of severe and death cases and provided valuable experience for case management in similar cities in China.
