AIM: To provide references for the non-clinical evaluation of therapeutic targets or drugs for retinoblastoma, fluorescently labeled Y79 cells are injected into the vitreous body of BALB/c-nu mice to establish a retinoblastoma model, and the Melphalan treatment group is used as a positive control, which is verified by fluorescence imaging technology.METHODS: BALB/c-nu mice were intravitreous injected with GFP transfected Y79 cells(1.0×107 cell/mL, 3 μL)to establish the model. On the 27th day, the mice were randomly divided into model control group and different doses of Melphalan groups(1, 3, 10 μg/eye groups)according to the fluorescence value of in vivo imaging, with vitreous body single administrated and ocular symptoms observed daily. Slit-lamp examination was performed at 12, 20, 29, 35, 42, 48, 55, 76, and 83 d after modeling. In vivo imaging was performed on 12, 20, 27, 41, 48, 55, 62, 69, 76, and 83 d. At the last treatment, the eyeball, brain and cerebellum tissues were removed for histopathological examination.RESULTS: From the sixth day of modeling, cloud-like substances could be seen in the eyes of the animals, and the cloud-like substances occupied the whole eyeball of the mice in the model control group at the later stage, accompanied by irregular growth of blood vessels. After 27 days of modeling, the fluorescence value was detected in all the animals, and the fluorescence value continued to increase with the extension of modeling time. The fluorescence value of the tumor reached the peak after 69-83 days of modeling. Histological examination showed severe proliferation of intraocular tumor cells in the model control group, and tumor cells were observed in the brain of 1 model animal. In the 10 μg/eye Melphalan group, the fluorescence value was significantly decreased at 17 d after administration. The fluorescence value of the 3 μg/eye Melphalan group was significantly inhibited at 59 d after administration. No tumor cells were found in the brain tissue of animals in all Melphalan groups.CONCLUSION: After vitreous injection of Y79/pCDH-LUC-copGFP cells in BALB/c-nu mice, significant ocular lesions and proliferation of tumor cells were observed in the eyes. Meanwhile, Melphalan intervention significantly inhibited tumor cells in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that the mouse model of retinoblastoma was successfully constructed.

【Objective】 To understand the current situation of social emotional competence of infants and toddlers, and analyze its relationship with home rearing environment, in order to provide the basis for improving the level of infant social emotional development. 【Method】 A study was conducted on 390 individuals from a child health institution in Hubei and Henan provinces.The "Infant and Toddler Social-Emotional Assessment Scale" and "1 - 3 Years Child Home Rearing Environment Scale" were used to investigate the social emotions ability and home rearing environment of infants and toddlers. 【Results】 A total of 390 valid questionnaires were collected in this survey, of which 199 were boys (51.0%) and 191 girls (49.0%). The average age of infants was (27.13±6.86)months.The age distribution is mainly among infants and young children aged 24 to 36 months, with a total of 305 people (78.2%). The caregiver′s registered residence (Z=-3.570), father′s education level (H=17.106), mother′s education level (H=7.980), per capita monthly income of the family (H=13.986), and the home rearing environment (Z=-8.881) had statistical significance on the social emotional competence of infants(P<0.05 or <0.01).There was a significant positive correlation between family rearing environment and infants′ social emotion (r=0.582, P<0.01).Multiple regression analysis showed that the social adaptation/self-care(β=0.30, 95%CI: 0.18 - 0.52, P<0.01)and language cognition dimensions(β=0.22, 95%CI: 0.07 - 0.59, P<0.05) in the home rearing environment had a statistically significant impact on the social emotional ability of infants and toddlers. 【Conclusion】 The home rearing environment is closely related to the social emotional development of infants and young children.Improve the parenting knowledge and skills of the main caregivers of infants and young children, build a good family rearing environment for infants and young children, which is beneficial to promote the development of children′s social emotions.

【Objective】 To investigate the development of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6, and to explore its influencing factors, so as to provide reference for promoting the development of adaptability in young children. 【Methods】 Data were from the National Nutrition and Health Systematic Survey for Children in China, and 3 319 children aged 2 - 6 and their parents from 28 sites across 14 provinces were recruited in this study.The Development Scale for Children Aged 0 - 6 years (WS/T 580-2017) was used to measure the developmental quotient of children′s adaptive ability, and a survey questionnaire was used to collect relevant information about children and their parents. 【Results】 Among 3 319 children aged 2 - 6, the proportion of slightly low or low level of adaptability, moderate adaptability development, good and excellent adaptability development was 7.68%,66.25% and 26.06%, respectively.The proportion of children aged 5 - 6 with good and excellent adaptability was lower in 3-year-old and 4-year-old groups (χ²=59.29, P<0.05).Multiple stepwise linear regression showed that children′s gender (β=0.06), gestational age of birth (β=-0.05), only child (β=-0.04), left-behind child (β=-0.04), the main caregiver (β=-0.06), and the education level of parents (β=0.09, 0.10), whether parents actively pay attention to children′s emotions (β=-0.06) and whether children play with homemade toys (β=-0.04) were the influencing factors of children′s adaptive development quotient.Girls, full-term children, only children, non-left-behind children, children with parents as main caregivers, parents with a high level of education, parents who often take the initiative to pay attention to children′s emotions, and children who play with homemade toys had a higher level of adaptability development quotient. 【Conclusions】 The development level of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6 in China is mostly above the average level and is related to multiple factors.Targeted intervention work can be carried out on relevant factors in order to promote the development of children′s adaptability.

Guided by the theory of "kidney generates marrow"， the study elaborates the viewpoint that the route of Yin Heel Channel （阴跷脉） is consistent with the "kidney-marrow-brain" axis from the perspective of the circulation of the meridians and the relationship between the zang-fu organs. Accordingly， it is believed that disease of Yin Heel Channel and dysfunction of the "kidney-marrow-brain" axis are the core pathogenesis of children enuresis， and it is elaborated from the following three major aspects， firstly， insufficient kidney essence， dysfunction of the "kidney-marrow-brain" axis， secondly， disease of Yin Heel Channel and deficiency and cold in lower jiao， and thirdly， disease of Yin Heel Channel and loss of nourishment of Chong Vessel. It is proposed to use the mode of "firstly needle， secondly moxibustion， and lastly consolidation" to treat children enuresis. Needle is to adjust yin and yang， warm yang and tonify kidney， and wake up the brain and open the orifices. The acupoints in Yin Heel Channel such as Zhaohai （KI 6）， Jiaoxin （KI 8） and confluence points of the eight extraordinary vessels such as Waiguan （TE 5）， Zulinqi （GB 41） are used， together with Baihui （GV 20）， Yintang （EX-HN 3）， Guanyuan （CV 4）， Qixue （KI 13）， Dazhong （KI 4）. Moxibustion is to reinforce healthy qi and warm yang， bank up the root and consolidate the original qi by moxibustion at Shenque （CV 8）， Mingmen （GV 4）， and Xuanshu （GV 5）. Consolidation is to use acupoints application to consolidate the therapeutic effect， and Guanyuan （CV 4） & Pangguangshu （BL 28）， Qihai （CV 6） & Zhishi （BL 52）， and Shenque （CV 8） & Ciliao （BL 32） are commonly used as the three groups of acupoints to warm the kidney and stop collapse， regulate and tonify the qi and blood.

Maintaining the homeostasis of gut microbes is essential for the maintenance of human health.The evolution of the human gut microbiota is involved in many physiological functions.Besides，changes in gut flora can be traced back to early life.The prevalence of malnutrition in infants and young children is persistently high，especially in low-and middle-income countries.More and more researches have confirmed that the immature development of intestinal microbiota and abnormal metabolites are related to malnutrition.Due to nutritional diet is the most important factor affecting the microbiota，studies have begun to assess the therapeutic potential of microbiota oriented food interventions in improving infant and young child malnutrition.Therefore，this review summarizes the latest advances in the field and recommend further progress towards finding new treatments for the malnutrition of infant and young child.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of normal mouse serum on radiation pneumonitis in mice and explore the possible mechanism.Methods Mouse models of radiation pneumonitis induced by thoracic radiation exposure were given intravenous injections of 100 μL normal mouse serum or normal saline immediately after the exposure followed by injections once every other day for a total of 8 injections.On the 15th day after irradiation,histopathological changes of the lungs of the mice were examined using HE staining,the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1α and IL-6 in the lung tissue and serum were detected using ELISA,and the percentages of lymphocytes in the lung tissue were analyzed with flow cytometry.High-throughput sequencing of exosome miRNA was carried out to explore the changes in the signaling pathways.The mRNA expression levels of the immune-related genes were detected by qRT-PCR,and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α-actinin and paxillin in the focal adhesion signaling pathway were detected with Western blotting.Results In the mouse models of radiation pneumonitis,injections of normal mouse serum significantly decreased the lung organ coefficient,lowered the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1α and IL-6 in the serum and lung tissues,and ameliorated infiltration of CD45+,CD4+and Treg lymphocytes in the lung tissue(all P<0.05).The expression levels of Egfr and Pik3cd genes at both the mRNA and protein levels and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α-actinin and paxillin were all significantly down-regulated in the mouse models after normal mouse serum treatment.Conclusion Normal mouse serum ameliorates radiation pneumonitis in mice by inhibiting the expressions of key proteins in the Focal adhesion signaling pathway.

TCM believes that spleen deficiency is the root cause of emotional abnormalities in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and clinical treatment often involves the heart, liver and kidney. TCM therapy has a significant efficacy in CFS emotional abnormalities. It is mostly treated with oral administration of TCM, acupuncture, moxibustion and massage therapy. It may play a therapeutic role by improving oxidative stress and immune inflammation, regulating nerve-endocrine, controlling energy metabolism and other ways. It is suggested to establish the syndrome differentiation standard of CFS emotional abnormality in the future, so as to improve the accuracy of syndrome differentiation and treatment; form a perfect treatment guide or expert consensus to guide the standardized application of various internal and external treatment methods; explore objective indicators based on the pathogenesis, and focus on the morphological and functional changes of disease target brain regions with the help of neuroimaging techniques, so as to improve the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of CFS; based on the guidance of TCM theory, improve the CFS emotional abnormal animal modeling method.

Astrocytes are heavily activated in Alzheimer's disease,engulfing damaged synapses,Aβ proteins,Tau proteins,apoptotic cells and other substrates.However,these substrates are difficult to degrade,accumulate as the disease progresses,and impair the phagocytosis of astrocytes.During phagocytosis,astrocytes recognize different substrates through a variety of phagocytosis receptors and partially degrade the substrates through degrad-ing enzymes and lysosomal pathways.The accumulation of Aβ and Tau proteins in astrocytes caused astrocyte im-mune and metabolic disorders,and Aβ toxicity changed after phagocytosis.In addition,astrocytes and microglia form a complementary pattern and cooperate to complete phagocytosis through interaction.Regulating the pathway of astrocyte phagocytosis and degradation is believed to be a potential novo therapeutic for clinical treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
