Objective To summarize and analyze the clinical phenotypes,hereditary features and treatment and follow-up strategies of different hereditary pheochromocytoma/paragangliomas(PCC/PGL)and related syndromes.Methods Forty-four clinically diagnosed PCC/PGL patients admitted in our hospital from January 2000 to August 2022 were enrolled,and the clinical data of them and their family members were collected.Second-generation sequencing was performed on 43 patients for genetic detection,and Sanger sequencing was applied to verify the mutation of the probands and family members.Results There were 15 patients diagnosed with hereditary PCC/PGL,including 7 cases of von Hippel-Lindau(VHL)syndrome,3 cases of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2(MEN2),and 5 cases of familial paraganglioma syndrome.Seven VHL syndrome families were diagnosed as VHL2A(c.500G＞A),VHL2B(c.239G＞T and c.444_457del),and VHL2C(c.293A＞G)according to their clinical manifestations.All probands received surgical treatment,and 2 cases of recurrent PCC and the patients with multiple renal cancer also received targeted therapy with sunitinib.Three MEN2 families carried c.1901G＞C,c.1832G＞A,and c.1901G＞A missense mutations,respectively,and were diagnosed with MEN2A clinically.All of them underwent adrenalectomy and thyroidectomy,including one for preventive thyroidectomy.Among the 5 familial paraganglioma syndrome families,4 patients carried SDHB mutations(SDHB:c.343C＞T,c.541-2A＞G,c.575G＞A,c.268C＞T)and 1 patient carried an SDHD mutation(SDHD:c.337_340del).Sporadic retroperitoneal PGL were most common.Conclusion More than 1/3 of PCC/PGL patients carry germline gene mutations,showing obvious genotype-phenotype correlation.Genetic diagnosis technology plays an important guidance role for clinical precision treatment and follow-up,and genetic counseling.

Bone defects caused by different causes such as trauma, severe bone infection and other factors are common in clinic and difficult to treat. Usually, bone substitutes are required for repair. Current bone grafting materials used clinically include autologous bones, allogeneic bones, xenografts, and synthetic materials, etc. Other than autologous bones, the major hurdles of rest bone grafts have various degrees of poor biological activity and lack of active ingredients to provide osteogenic impetus. Bone marrow contains various components such as stem cells and bioactive factors, which are contributive to osteogenesis. In response, the technique of bone marrow enrichment, based on the efficient utilization of components within bone marrow, has been risen, aiming to extract osteogenic cells and factors from bone marrow of patients and incorporate them into 3D scaffolds for fabricating bone grafts with high osteoinductivity. However, the scientific guidance and application specification are lacked with regard to the clinical scope, approach, safety and effectiveness. In this context, under the organization of Chinese Orthopedic Association, the Expert consensus for the clinical application of autologous bone marrow enrichment technique for bone repair ( version 2023) is formulated based on the evidence-based medicine. The consensus covers the topics of the characteristics, range of application, safety and application notes of the technique of autologous bone marrow enrichment and proposes corresponding recommendations, hoping to provide better guidance for clinical practice of the technique.

A new electrochemical sensor for organophosphate pesticide(methyl-paraoxon)detection based on bifunctional cerium oxide(CeO2)nanozyme is here reported for the first time.Methyl-paraoxon was degraded into p-nitrophenol by using CeO2 with phosphatase mimicking activity.The CeO2 nanozyme-modified electrode was then synthesized to detect p-nitrophenol.Cyclic voltammetry was applied to investigate the electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode,which indicates that the signal enhancement effect may attribute to the coating of CeO2 nanozyme.The current research also studied and discussed the main parameters affecting the analytical signal,including accumulation potential,accumulation time,and pH.Under the optimum conditions,the present method provided a wider linear range from 0.1 to 100 μmol/L for methyl-paraoxon with a detection limit of 0.06 μmol/L.To validate the proof of concept,the electrochemical sensor was then successfully applied for the determination of methyl-paraoxon in three herb samples,i.e.,Coix lacryma-jobi,Adenophora stricta and Semen nelum-binis.Our findings may provide new insights into the application of bifunctional nanozyme in electro-chemical detection of organophosphorus pesticide.

Background and purpose: Resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy is a major clinical obstacle to successful treatment and leads to poor prognosis for the patients. MicroRNA (miRNA) plays a vital role in tumor cells response to chemotherapeutic agents. This study plans to investigate the expressions of miRNA27a and miRNA451 in ovarian cancer and breast cancer cells and its correlation with drug resistance. Methods:A2780/Taxol cells were established using stepwise selection;Stem-loop quantitative real-time PCR (stem-loop RT-PCR) was used to detect expression of miRNA27a and miRNA451 in ovarian cancer and breast cancer cells. The A2780 and A2780/Taxol cells were transfected with the mimics or inhibitors of miRNA27a or negative control (NC) RNA and the mimics of miRNA451 or NC were transfected into MCF-7/ADM cells by LipofectamineTM 2000. The expression levels of MDR1 mRNA and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) were examined using RT-PCR and Western blot respectively. MTT method was used to analyze drug sensitivity. Results:The expression of miRNA27a was an average of (2.2±0.30) times higher in A2780/Taxol cells than in A2780 cells, with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The expression of miRNA451 was lower by 84%in MCF-7/ADM cells than in MCF-7 cells, with a signiifcant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). A2780/Taxol cells transfection with inhibitors of miRNA27a showed that the levels of MDR1 mRNA was decreased by (39±0.14)%, P-gp level [(26±5.3)%] decreased compared with the NC group [(43±6.7)%], the IC50 (0.53μmol/L) was less than the NC group (6.8μmol/L), and there was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Transfection of A2780 cells with mimics of miRNA27a led to increase MDR1 mRNA expression by (121±0.11)%and decrease the sensitivity to paclitaxel (IC50:0.2μmol/L vs 0.06μmol/L). There was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Transfection of MCF-7/ADM cells with mimics of miRNA451 showed that expression of MDR1 mRNA was decreased by (65±12)%, P-gp [(31±19)%] was less than the NC group [(83±12)%], the sensitivity of cells to adriamycin enhanced and the IC50 of adriamycin (4.61μmol/L) was less than the NC group (26μmol/L), and there was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion:The expressions of miRNA27a and miRNA451 are deregulated in A2780/Taxol and MCF-7/ADM cells respectively, which may play vital roles in drug resistance by regulating MDR1/P-gp expression directly or indirectly.

ObjectiveTo investigate the morphologic features of coronary sinus (CS)-left atrium muscle connections,and evaluate the function and anatomical features of coronary sinus on dual-source CT coronary angiography (DSCTCA).MethodsImages of DSCTCA of 144 patients [ control group consisted of 96 patients,and atrial fibrillation (AF) group consisted of 48 patients] were reviewed.The existence of coronary sinus-right atrium muscle connections was indirectly evaluated by measuring the cross-sectional area changes of the CS during atrial systole and atrial diastolic.The number,location,length of the CS-left atrium muscle connections andthe relationship between CS-left atrium muscle connections and CS morphological characteristics were studied.The t test for continuous variables and Chi-square test for categorical variables were used in statistical analysis.Results( 1 )The anatomic course of the CS in relation to the mitral ring was straight,mild curvature and high riding of 62,16 and 18 cases in control group and 10,8 and 30 cases in AF group,respectively.There was not statistical significance between the 2 group (x2 =0.093,P=0.954). (2)The CS length was (34.1 ±9.1),(33.8 ±8.9)mm in Control group and AF group,respectively.There was no statistical significance between the 2 group ( t =- 0.486,P =0.628 ).(3) Coronary sinus-left atrium muscle connections were seen in 131 of the 144 patients (91.0％).A single connection was seen in 103 of the 144 patients,with a mean length of (22.6 ± 12.7)mm within (6.3 ± 5.8 ) mm of the coronary sinus ostium.28 patients had two connections; distal connections measured ( 13.2 ± 6.2)mm in length within (16.7 ± 6.8 ) mm of the coronary sinus ostium,and proximal connections measured ( 11.1 ± 3.6 ) mm in length within (2.1 ± 1.9) mm of the coronary sinus ostium.And there was no statistical difference the number and length of CS-left atrium connections in between Control group and AF group (P ＞ 0.05 ).(4)The CS narrowed 22.4％ (44.5/198.8 )in cross-sectional area from atrial diastolic to atrial systole in control group( t =- 21.076,P ＜ 0.01 ),while the CS had no obvious contraction in AF group(t =0.374,P ＞ 0.05).The cross-sectional area of the coronary sinus during diastole was obviously larger in the AF group than in the control group[( 230.4 ±77.0) mm2 vs (198.8 ±65.4) mm2,respectively,t =- 2.579,P =0.01 ].In control group ( n =9 ),the coronary sinus-left atrium connection was not seen,however,all showed a CS constriction during atrial systole,indicating that coronary sinus-left atrium muscle continuity is not likely the primary cause for coronary sinus contractions. Conclusions DSCTCA can clearly show the anatomical characteristics of CS,it can help to understand the length,number and location of the CS-left atrium muscle connection.
