ObjectiveBased on the conjoint analysis of transcriptome and metabolome， the key genes in the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway of Lonicera macranthoides were explored， which provided a basis for further exploring the synthesis and regulation mechanism of phenylpropanoid compounds in "Xianglei" L. macranthoides. MethodsThe stem， leaves， and three flowering flowers of "Xianglei" L. macranthoides were selected as experimental materials to construct transcriptome and metabolome. The transcriptome and metabolomics were conjointly analyzed by the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） database and weighted correlation network analysis （WGCNA）， and the key genes in the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway of L. macranthoides were explored. ResultsIn this study， 77 differential phenylpropanoids and 315 differential genes were found. Through the joint analysis of transcription and metabolism， nine key differential metabolites and four key genes related to them were finally discovered. Among them， cinnamic acid， 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid，sinapyl alcohol， and chlorogenic acid were higher in flowers， and the content of the iconic effective component， namely chlorogenic acid，decreased sharply during the withering period. Caffeic acid，ferulic acid， 5-hydroxyconiferaldehyde，p-coumaryl alcohol， and syringin were higher in leaves. These four key genes belong to the cinnamic alcohol dehydrogenase （CAD） family， 4-coumaric acid： Coenzyme A （4CL） family， hydroxycinnamyl transferase （HCT） family， and L-phenylalanine ammonlyase （PAL） family genes. ConclusionAmong the four key genes excavated from L. macranthoides， TRINITY_DN42767_c0_g6 is related to the synthesis of p-coumaryl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol. TRINITY_DN43525_c4_g1 uses caffeic acid，ferulic acid，and cinnamic acid as substrates to catalyze the next reaction. TRINITY_DN47958_c3_g4 correlates with the synthesis of 3-p-coumaroyl quinic acid and caffeoyl-CoA， and TRINITY_DN52595_c1_g2 correlates with cinnamic acid synthesis. These findings provide a basis for further exploring the synthesis and regulation mechanism of phenylpropanoids in "Xianglei" L. macranthoides.

Objective To analyze the expression of SPAG5 in gastric cancer tissues and its regulatory roles in gastric cancer cell growth.Methods TCGA analysis,immunohistochemistry,and immunofluorescence staining were used to analyze the expression patterns of SPAG5 and MKi67 in gastric cancer and adjacent tissues.In gastric cancer AGS and MGC803 cells,the effects of lentivirus-mediated SPAG5 knockdown on cell growth and apoptosis were evaluated using Celigo,MTT,clone formation assays and flow cytometry.Results Proteinatlas and TCGA database analysis suggested that SPAG5 was highly expressed in gastric cancer,and Kaplan-Meier analysis and GEPIA analysis showed high expressions of SPAG 5 in lung adenocarcinoma,breast cancer,hepatocellular carcinoma,pancreatic carcinoma,cervical cancer and bladder carcinoma.Immunohistochemistry revealed that SPAG5 was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues(P<0.001),and immunofluorescence colocalization analysis demonstrated a significant correlation between SPAG5 and MKI67(R=0.393,P<0.001).RT-qPCR and Western blotting showed that SPAG5 was highly expressed in MKN74,BGC823,MGC803,SGC7901 and AGS cells.In AGS and MGC803 cells,SPAG5 knockdown significantly inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis.Conclusions The expressions of SPAG5 and MKi67 are correlated in gastric cancer tissues,and SPAG5 knockdown inhibits the proliferation of gastric cancer cells.SPAG5 is associated with the prognosis of gastric cancer patients and may serve as a promising biomarker for gastric cancer.

Objectives:To assess the efficacy of cord blood-assisted haploid peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (haplo-cord-PBSCT) versus unrelated donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (UD-PBSCT) in the treatment of malignant hematological diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on one hundred and four patients with malignant hematological diseases who underwent haplo-cord-PBSCT and fifty-two patients who underwent UD-PBSCT at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between January 2016 and December 2021.Results:①The median implantation time for neutrophils in the haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT groups was 13 (9–22) days and 13 (10–24) days, respectively ( P=0.834), whereas the median implantation time for platelets was 15 (7–103) days and 14 (8-38) days, respectively ( P=0.816).

The cumulative incidence rates of grade Ⅲ/Ⅳ acute GVHD were 7.8% (95% CI 3.6% –14.0% ) and 9.6% (95% CI 3.5% –19.5% ) ( P=0.725). The cumulative incidence rates of 2-year chronic GVHD in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and the UD-PBSCT group were 45.3% (95% CI 36.1% -56.1% ) and 35.1% (95% CI 21.6% –44.1% ), respectively ( P=0.237). The cumulative incidence rates of severe chronic GVHD at 2 years after transplantation were 13.6% (95% CI 7.6% -21.3% ) and 12.9% (95% CI 5.1% -24.3% ), respectively ( P=0.840). ③The 2-year CIR after transplantation in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and UD-PBSCT group were 12.8% (95% CI 7.0% –20.5% ) and 10.0% (95% CI 3.6% –20.2% ), respectively ( P=0.341), and the NRM were 14.7% (95% CI 8.4% –22.6% ) and 16.2% (95% CI 7.4% –28.0% ), respectively ( P=0.681). ④The 2-year OS rates in the haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT groups after transplantation were 82.2% (95% CI 74.8% –90.3% ) and 75.5% (95% CI 64.2% -88.7% ), respectively ( P=0.276). The 2-year DFS rates were 69.9% (95% CI 61.2% –79.8% ) and 73.8% (95% CI 62.4% -87.3% ), respectively ( P=0.551). The 2-year rates of GVHD-free/recurrence-free survival (GRFS) were 55.3% (95% CI 44.8% -64.8% ) and 64.7% (95% CI 52.8% –79.3% ), respectively ( P=0.284) . Conclusion:The findings of this study indicate that haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT have comparable efficacy and safety in the treatment of malignant hematological diseases and can be used as an alternative treatment options.

Hemophagocytic syndrome(HPS),also known as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH),is a rare and highly malignant hematologic disease with a poor prognosis.It can be divided into two categories:primary HLH and secondary HLH.HLH is characterized by a large number of abnormal immune cells that continuously activate and regulate out of control,leading to systemic inflammatory factor storm and multiple organ failure.Clinical manifestations mainly include persistent malignant hyperthermia,pancytopenia,hepatosplenomegaly,and hemophagocytosis in tissues and organs.The pathogenesis of adult HLH is complex,with rapid onset and rapid disease progression,and the fatality rate remains high.The main causes of death in HLH patients are multiple organ failure,abnormal coagulation and septic shock.Due to the specificity of HLH and the lack of effective understanding of the severity and prognosis in clinical practice,some HLH patients are misdiagnosed or overlooked,missing the best opportunity for diagnosis and treatment.Therefore,this review systematically explores and discusses the latest diagnostic and treatment progress of adult HLH,aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis assessment of HLH.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Confirmed cases of Lyme disease(LD)in Ji'an City,Jiangxi Province and the clinical manifestations and region-al distribution were assessed to provide a basis for timely diagnosis and treatment.In total,133 serum samples were collected from patients with suspected LD in Ji'an Central People's Hospital from December 2021 to August 2022.Serum antibodies a-gainst Borrelia burgdorferi were detected with a two-step testing process.In addition,a specific gene of B.burgdorferi in samples was identified by nested PCR.Sequencing analysis was conducted to confirm the positive samples.Overall,25(18.80％)serum samples were positive for B.burgdorferi nucleic acid and antibodies,which included 20(15.04％)positive for antibodies and 6(4.51％)positive for nucleic acids.The sequences of the 5S-23S rRNA gene spacer of 6 samples were con-sistent with the corresponding sequences of Borrelia yangtzensis and one of the six samples was also positive for antibodies.The 25 positive samples were collected from 9 counties in Ji'an City,with the majority in Jizhou District(44％).All positive patients may experience symptoms related to LD,including joint disorders,neurological disorders,infectious fever,der-matitis,and/or chest pain.The most common symptom was joint disorders(72％).Six cases positive for B.yangtzensis nucleic acids were mainly collected in the Jizhou District,of which four had joint lesions and two had infectious fever.This study confirms the existence of LD in Jiangxi Province,which may be the first confirmation of human infection with B.yan-gtzensis in southern China.Hence,doctors in this region should consider the possibility of LD for cases presenting with related symptoms.Although LD may occur in this region,further investigations and monitoring are warranted.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab based regimens in relapse and/or refractory multiple myeloma(RRMM)in the real world,as well as the impact of daratumumab on stem cell collection and engraftment.Methods:The clinical data of patients with RRMM who received daratumumab in hematology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from February 2019 to March 2023 and had evaluable efficacy were retrospective analysis.Results:All 43 RRMM patients were treated with daratumumab-based combination regimens,including Dd,DVd,DRd,Dkd,DId,and Dara-DECP.With median follow-up time 10.1(2.1-36.6)months,the best overall response rate(ORR)was 74.4％and a best complete response rate(CR)was 25.6％.1-year overall survival rate(OS)was 84.5％.The most common severe hematologic adverse events(Grade＞3)are 3/4 grade leukopenia(18.6％),and the most common severe non-hematologic adverse events were infusion-related reactions(IRRs,20.9％)and infections(7.0％).Multivariate prognostic analysis showed that extramedullary infiltration was an independent adverse prognostic factor affecting OS(P=0.004).The use of daratumumab has no effect on stem cell collection,or engraftment.Conclusion:Daratumumab is safe and effective in RRMM.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of small nucleolar RNA(snoRNA)SNORA63 in bone marrow of patients with acute leukemia(AL)and its significance in the clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of AL patients.Methods:Bone marrow samples of 53 newly diagnosed AL patients and 29 healthy subjects in the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from March 2018 to December 2021 were collected.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the relative expression level of SNORA63 in bone marrow mononuclear cells of the two groups.The median expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients was used as the boundary value to divide the patients into SNORA63 high and low expression groups,and the relationship between the expression level of SNORA63 and the clinical characteristics,clinical indicators and prognosis of AL patients was analyzed and discussed.Results:The relative expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients was significantly lower than that in healthy control group[0.3018(0.0244-1.2792)vs 1.0882(0.2797-1.9889)](P＜0.01).The expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients without remission after initial treatment was significantly lower than that in healthy controls and the patients who received complete remission(CR)(P＜0.01),while there was no statistical difference in the expression level of SNORA63 between AML and ALL groups(P＞0.05).The abnormal low expression of SNORA63 was closely related to fever,hemorrage,poor prognosis,efficacy,platelets(PLT),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),albumin(ALB),and molecular biological abnormalities of AL patients(P＜0.05),but not significantly correlated with sex,age,AL subtype,pallor,fatigue,extramedullary infiltration,white blood cell count(WBC),hemoglobin(HGB),C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),fibrinogen(FIB)or chromosome karyotype(P＞0.05).Meanwhile,overall survival(OS)and event-free survival(EFS)of AL patients in SNORA63 high-expression group were significantly higher than those in SNORA63 low-expression group(P＜0.05).Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that SNORA63,molecular biological abnormalities,fever,PLT and LDH were the factors influencing OS and EFS in AL patients(P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that fever,molecular biological abnormalities and LDH were independent factors associated with OS and EFS in AL patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:SNORA63 is significantly down-expressed in AL patients,which is a molecular marker of great clinical value for disease monitoring and prognosis evaluation in AL patients.

Objective:To explore and analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of secondary intestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(SI-DLBCL),in order to provide reference for the basic research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of secondary lymphoma of rare sites in the field of hematology.Methods:The clinical data of 138 patients with SI-DLBCL admitted to Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from June 2011 to June 2022 were collected and sorted,the clinical and pathological features,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis were analyzed.Cox regression risk model was used to conduct univariate and multivariate analysis on the prognostic risk factors.Results:Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL included in this study,85(61.59％)were male,53(38.41％)were female,the median age of onset was 59.5(16-84)years,the clinical manifestations lacked specificity,the first-line treatment regimen was mainly chemotherapy(67.39％),94 cases(68.12％)received chemotherapy alone,40 cases(28.98％)were treated with chemotherapy combined with surgery,and 4 cases(2.90％)were treated with surgery alone.The median follow-up time was 72(1-148)months.Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL,79(57.25％)survived,34(24.64％)died,25 cases(18.12％)lost to follow-up,the PFS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 57.97％,49.28％and 32.61％,and the OS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 60.14％,54.35％and 34.06％,respectively.The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed that age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of OS in SI-DLBCL patients,and age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.The results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that Lugano stage was an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.Conclusion:Patients with SI-DLBCL are more common in middle-aged and elderly men,and the early clinical manifestations lack specificity,and the first-line treatment regimen is mainly R-CHOP chemotherapy,and Lugano stage is an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.
