RESUMO
Disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism are important causes of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Defining the molecular mechanisms of metabolic disorders and exploring drug targets are key to the treatment of T2DM. The study discovered the effects of catalpol on insulin resistance (IR) and lipid metabolism disorder (LMD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A T2DM mouse model was established by a high-fat diet and a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. and injected with catalpol at 10 mg/kg for 12 weeks, and the lentiviral vector of miR-101-3p or Fos-related antigen 2 (FOSL2) expression was interfered with intravenously mouse insulin resistance (IR) and lipid metabolism disorder (LMD)-related indices were then measured. Pancreatic histopathology was observed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and TUNEL staining. The miR-101-3p and FOSL2 were detected by RT-qPCR or Western blot. In results: catalpol improved IR and LMD (both P<0.05) in diabetic mice, and alleviated the histopathological changes in the pancreas. miR-101-3p was upregulated (P<0.05), and FOSL2 was downregulated (P<0.05) in T2DM mice, while catalpol rescued their expression pattern (both P<0.05). The miR-101-3p targeted FOSL2. Down-regulating miR-101-3p or up-regulating FOSL2 improved IR and LMD (all P<0.05) in diabetic mice, and alleviated pancreatic histopathological changes. Overexpressing miR-101-3p or suppressing FOSL2 weakened the ameliorative effects of catalpol in T2DM mice (all P<0.05). We conclude that catalpol improves IR and LMD in diabetic mice by inhibiting miR-101-3p to up-regulate FOSL2.

Objective: To study the curative effect of rehmannia glutinosa leaves total glycoside capsules and the role of mitochondrial autophagy on nucleos(t)ide drug-induced renal injury. Methods: Adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) was used to construct a hepatitis B virus (HBV) transgenic mouse model for renal injury. Renal function was measured in each group at one and two weeks of modeling. Mitochondrial autophagy indicators were measured at two weeks of modeling in renal tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was used to detect mitochondrial autophagy phenomena in renal tissue. The model was established for two weeks. Mouse with renal injury were treated with rehmannia glutinosa leaves total glycoside capsules or isotonic saline for eight weeks by intragastric administration. Renal function was measured. Renal tissue morphology was observed. Mitochondrial autophagy indicators were detected in renal tissue. The protective effect of different concentrations of verbascoside (the main active ingredient of rehmannia glutinosa capsule) was observed on HK-2 cell damage induced by ADV. HK-2 cells were divided into control, ADV, and ADV plus verbascoside groups. The effects of verbascoside at different times and concentrations were observed on the HK-2 mitochondrial autophagy indicators. Fifty patients with chronic hepatitis B were collected who presented with renal injury after treatment with nucleos(t)ide analogs. The random number method was used to divide 29 cases into a control group that received conventional treatment. The treatment group of 21 cases was treated with rehmannia glutinosa leaves total glycoside capsules on the basis of the control group. Serum creatinine (Scr) and urinary protein were detected at eight weeks.The χ(2) test or t-test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Compared with the control group, two weeks of modeling in the ADV group induced renal function injury in HBV mice. The expression of autophagy indicators was higher in the renal tissue of the ADV group than that of the control group. Transmission electron microscopy had revealed mitochondrial autophagy in the renal tissue of the ADV group. Compared with the control group, the renal function of HBV mice treated with rehmannia glutinosa leaves total glycoside capsules improved for two months, and the expressions of autophagy indicators were down-regulated.Verbascoside promoted proliferation in ADV-damaged HK-2 cells, and the expression of autophagy indicators was down-regulated compared with the ADV alone group. In 50 patients with renal function injury, the urinary protein improvement was significantly superior in the treatment group than that in the control group, with eighteen and three cases being effective and ineffective in the treatment group and 12 and 17 cases being effective and ineffective in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (χ(2)â =â 9.975 0, Pâ =â 0.001 6). Serum creatinine was decreased in the treatment group compared with the control group, with 11 and 10 cases being effective and ineffective in the treatment group and 12 and 17 cases being effective and ineffective in the control group, with no statistically significant difference (χ(2)â = 0.593 5, Pâ =â 0.441 1). Conclusion: Rehmannia glutinosa leaves total glycoside capsule can improve the nucleos(t)ide drug-induced renal function injury in chronic hepatitis B, possibly playing a role via inhibiting PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitochondrial autophagy.

Objective: To investigate the factors influencing total bilirubin elevation and its correlation with UGT1A1 gene polymorphism in the early postoperative period of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). Methods: 104 cases with portal hypertension and esophageal variceal hemorrhage (EVB) treated with elective TIPS treatment were selected as the study subjects and were divided into a bilirubin-elevated group and a normal bilirubin group according to the total bilirubin elevation level during the early postoperative period. Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the factors influencing total bilirubin elevation in the early postoperative period. PCR amplification and first-generation sequencing technology were used to detect the polymorphic loci of the UGT1A1 gene promoter TATA box, enhancer c.-3279 T > G, c.211G > A, and c.686C > A. Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation of four locus alleles and genotypes with elevated total bilirubin in the early postoperative period. Results: Among the 104 cases, 47 patients were in the bilirubin elevated group, including 35 males (74.5%) and 12 females (25.5%), aged (50.72 ± 12.56) years. There were 57 cases in the normal bilirubin group, including 42 males (73.7%) and 15 females (26.3%), aged (51.63 ± 11.10) years. There was no statistically significant difference in age (t = -0.391, P = 0.697) and gender (χ(2) = 0.008, P = 0.928) between the two groups of patients. Univariate analysis revealed that preoperative alanine transaminase (ALT) level (χ(2) = 5.954, P = 0.015), total bilirubin level (χ(2) = 16.638, P < 0.001), MELD score (χ(2) = 10.054, P = 0.018), Child-Pugh score (χ(2) = 6.844, P = 0.022), and postoperative portal vein branch development (χ(2) = 6.738, P = 0.034) were statistically significantly different between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative ALT level, total bilirubin level, and portal vein branch development after TIPS were correlated with the elevated total bilirubin in the early postoperative period. The polymorphism of the c.211G > A locus of the UGT1A1 gene correlation had elevated total bilirubin in the early postoperative period of TIPS. The risk of elevated total bilirubin was increased in the population carrying allele A (P = 0.001, OR = 4.049) in the early postoperative period. Allelic polymorphisms in the TATA box promoter region and enhancer c.-3279 T > G and c.686C > A had no statistically significant difference between the bilirubin-elevated group and the normal bilirubin group. Conclusion: The preoperative ALT level, total bilirubin level, and portal vein branch development are correlated with the elevated total bilirubin in early postoperative patients. The polymorphisms of the UGT1A1 gene and enhancer c.211G > A are correlated with the occurrence of elevated total bilirubin in the early postoperative period of TIPS. Allele A carrier may have a higher risk of elevated total bilirubin in the early postoperative period.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status differs according to ethnicity, gender, smoking history, and histology types. The present study aimed to evaluate EGFR mutation status in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and further explore its association with clinical characteristics and prognosis in advanced NSCLC patients (Stage IIIB-IV). 238 NSCLC patients were enrolled in this study from October 2016 through December 2019. Patient characteristics and clinical data including age, gender, smoking history, histology types, tumor stage, survival status, and time were collected via electronic medical record system or telephone. 21 somatic mutations which spanned exons 18-21 of EGFR were detected using the amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) method, followed by analysis of links to clinical characteristics, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). 103 patients were detected harboring EGFR mutations among the 238 cases tested (43.3%), and exons 19 and 21 were the highest mutation frequencies, with 20.6% and 19.3% respectively. The EGFR mutation rate was much higher in female versus male (57.4% vs 31.5%, p <0.001), in non-smokers compared to smokers (56.8% vs 25.9%, p <0.001), and in those with adenocarcinoma than other histology types (48.3% vs 3.7%, p <0.001). For patients in advanced stage, median PFS was 11 months in patients harboring EGFR mutations, versus 4 months in patients with wild type EGFR (p <0.001); median OS was 24 versus 12 months (p <0.001). Never smoking (p = 0.042) and adenocarcinoma (p = 0.007) were independent favorable factors for EGFR mutations. Our data strengthen the findings of high prevalence of EGFR mutations in Asian patients with NSCLC. Mutations are prevalent in those patients who are female, adenocarcinoma, and have never smoked. Moreover, advanced EGFR mutation-positive patients have better PFS and OS than those with wild type EGFR.
RESUMO
Objective: To trace and characterize the whole genome of SARS-CoV-2 of confirmed cases in the outbreak of COVID-19 on July 31, 2021 in Henan Province. Method: Genome-wide sequencing and comparative analysis were performed on positive nucleic acid samples of SARS-CoV-2 from 167 local cases related to the epidemic on July 31, 2021, to analyze the consistency and evolution of the whole genome sequence of virus. Results: Through high-throughput sequencing, a total of 106 cases of SARS-CoV-2 whole genome sequences were obtained. The results of genome analysis showed that the whole genome sequences of 106 cases belonged to the VOC/Delta variant strain (B.1.617.2 clade), and the whole genome sequences of 106 cases were shared with the genomes of 3 imported cases from Myanmar admitted to a hospital in Zhengzhou. On the basis of 45 nucleotide sites, 1-5 nucleotide variation sites were added, and the genome sequence was highly homologous. Conclusion: Combined with the comprehensive analysis of viral genomics, transmission path simulation experiments and epidemiology, it is determined that the local new epidemic in Henan Province is caused by imported cases in the nosocomial area, and the spillover has caused localized infection in the community. At the same time, it spills over to some provincial cities and results in localized clustered epidemics.

Objective: To understand the epidemiological characteristics of bacillary dysentery with multiple-onset in Henan province from 2005 to 2020. Methods: The reported cases of bacillary dysentery (including confirmed cases and clinically diagnosed cases) in Henan Province from January 2005 to December 2020 were collected through China's National Disease Supervision Information Management System. The main information included gender, age, home address, date of onset and date of diagnosis. The interval between two episodes of the same case was more than 15 days, which was judged as two episodes. The incidence characteristics of bacillary dysentery patients with two or more cases in Henan Province from 2005 to 2020 were analyzed, and the regional distribution map of cases was drawn using ArcGIS software. Results: From 2005 to 2020, a total of 250 430 cases of bacillary dysentery were reported in Henan Province, with a cumulative incidence rate of 228.66/100 000. There were 2 342 cases with two or more attacks. The incidence of recurrent cases of bacillary dysentery increased year by year (χ2trend=2 932.28, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of two or more cases of different sexes (χ2=0.39, P=0.540). There was significant difference in the incidence among different age groups (χ2=438.40, P<0.001). The incidence of two or more cases in the 60-69 age group was relatively high (1.70%). The shortest time interval between the onset of the disease was 16 days, and the longest was 5 579 days, with M (Q1, Q3) about 428 (237, 843) days. Compared with healthy people, those with a history of bacterial diseases had a higher risk of developing bacillary dysentery (RR: 4.12, 95%CI: 3.95â4.29). Conclusion: The proportion of patients with multiple-onset shows an increasing trend, and there is an age difference.

Objective: To observe the dynamic changes of brainstem locus coeruleus (LC) damage in Parkinson' s disease (PD) -like mice by paraquat (PQ) . Methods: In October 2019, 36 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the exposure group and the control group, with 18 mice in each group. The mice in the exposure group were given intraperitoneal injection of 15 mg/kg PQ, and the mice in the control group were given intraperitoneal injection of 0.9% saline, twice a week for 8 weeks. Neurobehavioral changes (pole climbing test, swimming test, open field test, tail hanging test, high plus maze test and water maze test) were observed at 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks, respectively, and the changes of motor ability, emotion and cognitive function were evaluated. The brain tissue of mice were taken and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) to observe the pathological changes of LC. Nissl staining was used to detect the changes of neuronal Nissl bodies in LC. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was used to detect the expression of neuron nuclear antigen (NeuN) , dopamine (DA) neurons and norepinephrine (NE) neuron markers tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) , α-synuclein (α-syn) in substantia nigra (SN) and LC. The expression levels of NeuN, TH and α-syn in the midbrain and brainstem were detected by Western blotting. TUNEL staining was used to detect neuronal apoptosis in LC. Results: Compared with the 4th week of PQ exposure group, the time of pole climbing and swimming immobility were gradually increased, the ratio of open arm residence time of high plus maze test and the number of times of the platform and the residence time of platform quadrant in water maze test were gradually decreased (P<0.05) in the exposure group with the progress of exposure time. The results of HE and Nissl staining showed that the neurons in LC gradually arranged loosely, the nucleus were deeply stained, the cytoplasm was pyknosis, and the number of Nissl bodies gradually decreased (P<0.05) in the exposure group with the progress of exposure time. IHC results showed that the number of NeuN and TH positive cells in SN and LC of mice were gradually decreased, and the positive expression of α-syn was gradually increased (P<0.05) in the exposure group with the progress of exposure time. Western blotting results showed that the expression levels of NeuN and TH in the midbrain and brainstem were gradually decreased, and the expression level of α-syn was gradually increased (P<0.05) in the exposure group with the progress of exposure time. TUNEL staining showed that the apoptosis rates of neurons in LC were gradually increased (P<0.05) in the exposure group with the progress of exposure time. Conclusion: PQ induces progressive damage in the LC area of PD-like mice, which may be caused by the abnormal accumulation of pathological α-syn in the LC area.

Objective: To observe the intestinal time-dependent changes in Parkinson's disease (PD) mouse model constructed by intraperitoneal injection of paraquat (PQ) and to establish the brain-gut axis connection initially. Methods: In October 2019, 48 mice were randomly divided into treated group and control groups: treated 4-week (P-4) group, treated 6-week (P-6) group, treated 8-week (P-8) group, control 4-week (C-4) group, control 6-week (C-6) group, and control 8-week (C-8) group. The treated group was injected with 15 mg/kg PQ solution and the control group was injected with 0.9% saline (0.2 ml/20 g) by intraperitoneal injection twice a week. After the initial state (0 weeks) and the treatment at the end of 4, 6 and 8 weeks, the mood changes and motor functions of mice were assessed by neurobehavioral tests (open field test, pole climbing test, tail suspension test and elevated plus maze test) . And the number of fecal pellets for 1 h and water content were calculated to assess the functional status of the gastrointestinal tract. Western blotting experiments were performed to detect the expression levels of α-synuclein (α-syn) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the nigrostriatal region of the mouse brain, the tight junction markers zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and Occludin, the inflammatory markers of integrin αM subunit (CD11b) , inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) , high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) , interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) , and the neuronal markers ßâ ¢-tubulin and α-syn protein in the colon.Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression levels of colonic tight junction proteins ZO-1 and Occludin. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to detect the expression levels of TH in the substantia nigra region of the midbrain, and the co-localization of colonic intestine neuronal marker (ßâ ¢-tubulin) and Ser129 α-syn in the colonic. Results: Compared with the initial state (0 weeks) and C-8 group, mice in the P-8 group had significantly higher pole climbing test scores and resting time, and significantly lower total active distance, mean active speed, percentage of open arm entry and 1 h fecal instances (P<0.05) . After poisoning, the 1 h fecal water content of model mice first increased and then decreased, the P-4 and P-6 groups were significantly higher than the simultaneous point control group, and the P-8 groups were significantly lower than the initial state (P<0.05) . Compared with control, P-4 and P-6 groups, the expression levels of ZO-1 and Occludin in the P-8 group were significantly decreased (P<0.05) . Compared with control group, the expression levels of CD11b and IL-1ß in the P-4 group were significantly increased (P<0.05) . Compared with control and P-4 group, the expression levels of CD11b, iNOS, HMGB1 and IL-1ß in the P-6 and P-8 groups were significantly increased (P<0.05) . Compared with the control and P-4 groups, the expression levels of ßâ ¢-tubulin in the colon of mice in the P-8 group were significantly decreased, and the expression levels of α-syn and Ser129 α-syn were significantly increased (P<0.05) . The expression level of Ser129 α-syn in the colon of model mice was negatively correlated with the expression level of ßâ ¢-tubulin (r(s)=-0.9149, 95%CI: -0.9771--0.7085, P<0.001) . Ser129 α-syn and ßâ ¢-tubulin co-localization in the colonic intermuscular plexus region increased gradually with the time of exposure. Compared with the control, P-4 and P-6 groups, the expression level of TH in the nigrostriatal region of the brain was significantly decreased, and the expression levels of α-syn and Ser129 α-syn were significantly increased in the P-8 group (P<0.05) . Correlation analysis showed that the relative expression level of Ser129 α-syn in the nigrostriatal region of the brain was negatively correlated with the expression level of TH in the model mice (r(s)=-0.9716, 95% CI: -0.9925--0.8953, P<0.001) . Conclusion: The PD mouse model is successfully established by PQ, and the intestinal function of the model mice is reduced in a time-dependent manner. And on this basis, it is preliminary determined that the abnormal aggregation of α-syn may be an important substance connecting the brain-gut axis.

Objective: To explore the mechanism of HDAC6 mediated aggresome-autophagy-lysosome pathway in paraquat-induced autophagy in dopaminergic neurons. Methods: Human neuroblastoma cell (SH-SY5Y cell) was used as model of dopaminergic neurons in vitro. The cells were treated with terminal concentrations of 0, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400µmol/L PQ for 24 hours, and the cells were induced by 100 µmol/L PQ for different time (0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 h) . Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The expression levels of HDAC6, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, LC3, Beclin1, p62 and Lamp-1 were detected by Western blot. Immunofluorescence double-labeling method was used to observe the expression and localization of HDAC6, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, LC3, Lamp-1 and γ-tubulin in cells. Results: CCK-8 assay showed PQ induced cell survival rate decrease in a time and dose dependent manner (R=-0.950ã-0.960, P<0.05) .Western blot showed that compared with control group, the protein levels of HDAC6, α-syn, p62 in PQ-exposed group were significantly increased (P<0.05) , but there was a significant decrease in expression level of the ratio of autophagy-related protein LC3 â ¡/LC3 â , Beclin1, Dynein IC1/2, Lamp-1in PQ-exposed group (P<0.05) . The results of immunofluorescence double-labeling showed that compared with the control group, the fluorescence signals of HDAC6 and α-syn in the PQ-exposed group increased, and the protein expression level increased, while the fluorescence signals of Dynein IC1/2, LC3, and Lamp-1 decreased. The protein expression level is reduced. HDAC6 gradually accumulates from the diffuse shape to the nucleus; Under normal circumstances, α-syn, Dynein IC1/2, γ-tubulin, LC3, and Lamp-1 are mainly distributed in the cytoplasm. After PQ is infected, they gather in the nucleus and co-localize with HDAC6 in the area around the nucleus. Conclusion: PQ may induce abnormal aggregation of α-syn by inducing HDAC6-mediated aggresome-autophagy-lysosomal pathway disorder.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect of taurine (Tau) on hippocampus, substantia nigra neurons and microglia in paraquat (PQ) -induced Pakinson's disease-like mice. Methods: In April 2019, the specific pathogen free (SPF) C57BL/6 mice (n=36) were randomly divided into control group (NaCl) , Tau control group (150 mg/kg) , PQ exposure group (10 mg/kg PQ group, 15 mg/kg PQ group) , Tau intervention group (Tau+10 mg/kg PQ group, Tau+15 mg/kg PQ group) , respectively. Tau was used in 1 h before PQ administration for consecutive 6 weeks (twice per week) . General and neurobehavioral tests (Traction test, Open field test, Forced Swimming test, Tail suspension test, High plus maze and Object recognition test) were performed to test motor and cognitive function. After neuroethology detection, mice were euthanized and brains were collected. Nissl staining was used to detect the changes of the number and morphology of Nissl bodies in hippocampus and substantia nigra neurons of mice. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to test the levels of neuron marker neuronal nuclei antigen (NeuN) , substantia nigra dopaminergic neuron marker tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) , α-synuclein (α-syn) , microglia markers ionized calcium bindingadaptor molecule-1 (Iba-1) , inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) in mice substantia nigra. The coexpression of Iba-1 and TH double-labeling, α-syn and TH double-labeling in mice substantia nigra were measured by immunofluorescence double staining. Results: General behavioral changes such as slow reaction and reduced action occurred in mice of PQ group. Compared with the control group, the scores of Traction test, and the time ratio of new object recognition in the PQ group decreased (P<0.05) , the fixed time of Swimming test and Tail suspension test increased (P<0.05) , the horizontal crawl number and vertical times of Open field test and the ratio of open arm residence time of High plus maze in the 15 mg/kg PQ group decreased (P<0.05) . Compared with the PQ group, the same dose of Tau+PQ group showed increased scores in Traction test (P<0.05) and decreased fixed time of Swimming test and Tail suspension test (P<0.05) . Compared with the 15 mg/kg PQ group, the horizontal crawl number of Open field test and the time ratio of new object recognition increased in the Tau+15 mg/kg PQ group (P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, the PQ group showed a decrease in the number of Nissl body in the hippocampus and substantia nigra (P<0.05) , a decrease in the number of NeuN and TH positive cells in the substantia nigra (P<0.05) , with a large number of α-syn deposition, Iba-1 activation of microglia cells, and an increase in the expression of inflammatory factors (IL-1ß, iNOS) in the hippocampus and substantia nigra (P<0.05) . Compared with the PQ group, the same dose of Tau+PQ group showed the number of Nissl in the hippocampus and substantia nigra was significantly increased (P<0.05) , the number of NeuN and TH positive cells in the substantia nigra was significantly increased (P<0.05) , the expression levels of α-syn, Iba-1 and inflammatory factors (IL-1ß, iNOS) in the substantia nigra were significantly decreased (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Tau could protect PQ-induced degeneration of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons and hippocampal neuron loss by inhibiting the activation of microglia cells and release of inflammatory factors, and effectively improve the neurobehavioral and brain histopathological changes of PQ-induced PD-like mice.

Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 75 pregnant women hepatitis B with HBsAg and HBeAg double-positive(19-38 years old, median age 26 years old), who were enrolled in the Department of Infectious Diseases and Obstetrics Clinic of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from May 2016 to July 2017.Blood samples were collected at 12-24, 28-32 and 36-40 weeks of pregnancy for analyses of genotype, including hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), HBV DNA, HBV RNA and liver function, alanine transaminase(ALT), aspartate transaminase(AST), total bilirubin(TBiL), total bile acids(TBA), cholinesterase(CHE), alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Continuous variable was adopted by means of mean±standard deviation, and categorical variables were used for statistical analysis. Results: The HBV genotype was B in 64.0%(48/75)and C in 36.0%(27/75). The TDF and LDT groups showed no differences in demographic and clinical characteristics, including liver function tests, HBsAg, HBeAg, log(10)HBV DNA and log(10)HBV RNA.TDF groups, pre-treatment: HBV DNA (4.8±2.0), HBV RNA (6.4±1.1); at 4 weeks of treatment: HBV DNA (4.0±0.8), HBV RNA (6.0±0.9); at the end of treatment: HBV DNA (3.1±0.7), HBV RNA (5.5±0.8). LDT groups, pre-treatment HBV DNA (5.1±2.0), HBV RNA(6.5±0.9); at 4 weeks of treatment: HBV DNA (4.4±1.2), HBV RNA(6.5±0.8); at the end of treatment: HBV DNA(3.5±1.2), HBV RNA (6.1±0.7). Compared with pre-treatment (12-24 weeks), the TDF and LDT group showed significant reductions in log(10)(HBV DNA) and log(10)(HBV RNA) at 36-40 weeks ( P<0.05). Under the influence of excluding other variables, the genotype had a certain influence on the HBV RNA load.That was, HBV RNA in patients with the C genome decreased by 0.54 units(log(10)) at the end of the treatment compared to patients with the B genome, and the P value was less than 0.05. Conclusion: B and C genotypes are predominant in pregnant women with hepatitis B in Guizhou Province. B-type viruses are more easily controlled when different genotypes are treated with nucleotide analogues.

Objective: To observe the effects of blueberry and nuclear expression of transcription factor-кb (NF-кb) p65 in an experimental rat model of liver fibrosis. Methods: Forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into isotonic saline control group (A); model group (B); blueberry juice prevention group (C, 15 g/kg); dan-shao-hua-xian capsule prevention group (D, 1 g/kg); and blueberry juice + dan-shao-hua-xian capsule prevention group (E). Rat liver fibrosis model was established by covalent compound carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)). Each prevention group was given the corresponding dose of blueberry juice or (and) dan-shao-hua-xian capsule, and the rats were sacrificed after 8 weeks. The degree of liver fibrosis was evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin stain. A liver tissue of NF-κBp65 was detected by immunohistochemical method. The NF-κBp65 protein expression of liver tissue and transforming growth factor (TGF) ß1 was detected by Western blot. Data of multiple groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance, and rank sum test. Results: Immunohistochemistry detected that TGFß1 protein was mainly expressed in mesenchymal origin of hepatic stellate cells. The expression level of group A (3.75 ± 1.67) was low, while those of group B (9.00 ± 2.07), C (7.33 ± 1.00), D (6.00 ± 1.51), and E (3.5 ± 1.41) were high. However, the expression level of TGF-ß1 protein in hepatic tissues of group B was significantly higher than that of group C, D and E [group E: 3.5 ± 1.41, F = 18.350, P < 0.05]. In addition, group D was higher than group E (P < 0.05). The expression of NF- kappa Bp65 protein was very complex, and the expression patterns in different groups were different (Statistical calculation of experimental data were based on expression of liver cells). Compared with group B (4.37 ± 2.13), the relative expression levels of NF-κBp65 protein in-group A (0.46 ± 0.25), group C (2.76 ± 1.01), group D (2.13 ± 1.51), group E (1.88 ± 0.99) were significantly decreased (F = 27.490, P < 0.05), and the expression trend was consistent with TGFß1 protein. Western blot detected NF-κBp65 protein in liver tissues of rats. Compared with group A, levels in groups B, C, D and E were significantly increased (F = 96.983, P < 0.05), and groups C, D and E were significantly lower. The E group was significantly lower than the C group (F = 96.983, P < 0.05), and the degree of hepatic fibrosis was lower in each prevention group than in the B group (T = 24.1, P < 0.05). Conclusion: Blueberries have preventive effect on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats, and its preventive mechanism may inhibit the expression and activation of NF-κBp65 in hepatocytes, thereby reducing TGFß1- mediated production or activation.

Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is often diagnosed at an advanced and incurable stage. Information on driver genes and prognosticators in ESCC remains incomplete. The objective was to elucidate significantly mutated genes (SMGs), mutational signatures, and prognosticators in ESCC. Patients and methods: Three MutSig algorithms (i.e. MutSigCV, MutSigCL and MutSigFN) and '20/20+' ratio-metric were employed to identify SMGs. Nonnegative matrix factorization was used to decipher mutational signatures. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, multivariate Cox and logistic regression models were applied to analyze association between mutational features and clinical parameters. Results: We identified 26 SMGs, including 8 novel (NAV3, TENM3, PTCH1, TGFBR2, RIPK4, PBRM1, USP8 and BAP1) and 18 that have been previously reported. Three mutational signatures were identified to be prevalent in ESCC including clocklike C>T at CpG, APOBEC overactive C>T at TpCp[A/T], and a signature featured by T>C substitution. The T>C mutational signature was significantly correlated with alcohol consumption (OR: 3.59; 95% CI: 2.30-5.67; P < 0.001). This alcohol consumption signature was also observed in liver cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and its mutational activity was substantially higher in samples with mutations in TP53. Survival analysis revealed that TENM3 mutations (HR: 5.54; CI: 2.68-11.45; P < 0.001) and TP53 hotspot mutation p.R213* (HR: 3.37; CI: 1.73-8.06; P < 0.001) were significantly associated with shortened survival outcome. The association remained statistically significant after controlling for age, gender, TNM stage and tumor grade. Conclusions: We have uncovered several new SMGs in ESCC and defined an alcohol consumption related mutational signature. TENM3 mutations and the TP53 hotspot mutation p.R213* are independent prognosticators for poor survival in ESCC.

Objective: To observe the efficacy and safety related measures by blocking mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus with high viral load and HBeAg positivity during pregnancy in Guizhou province. Methods: Outpatient and inpatient cases of the Department of Infectious Diseases and Obstetrics of Guizhou Medical University Affiliated Hospitals from May 2016 to July 2017 were retrospectively divided into intervention group, non-intervention group and non- hepatitis B pregnant women group; with 75 cases in each group. HBsAg and HBeAg were positive in the intervention group. Pregnant women with HBV DNA ≥10(6) IU/ml were treated with anti-HBV therapy for 24 to 28 weeks of gestation until delivery. According to oral drugs, they were divided into tenofovir (TDF) group or telbivudine (LDT) group, non-intervention group (HBsAg and HBeAg positive), HBV DNA positive pregnant women, pregnant women with no anti-HBV drugs, non-hepatitis B pregnant women (normal pregnant women without HBV infection). Infants and young children born to the three groups of women were immunized with the national viral hepatitis B action plan. The gestational weeks and Apgar scores at birth, delivery mode, feeding mode, sex and 7-months-old age were observed and counted. Serum hepatitis B markers (HBVM) and HBV DNA were quantitatively detected. HBVM was detected by time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA), and HBV DNA was detected by real-time PCR (FQ-PCR). The changes of liver parameters, HBsAg, HBeAg, HBV DNA, adverse drug reactions and treatment response of pregnant intervention group before medication (12-24 weeks of gestation), 4 weeks of medication (28-32 weeks of gestation), 36-40 weeks of gestation (36-40 weeks of gestation) were statistically calculated. A t-test was used to compare the data between the measurements. Data measurements within the groups were analyzed using rank -sum test. Results: In the intervention group, therapeutic medications showed no differences in demographic and clinical characteristics between TDF group and LDT group, including liver parameters, HBsAg, HBeAg and log10HBV DNA level. Compared with pre-treatment (TDF group: 4.84 ± 2.01; LDT group: 5.08 ± 1.99), TDF and LDT were significantly lower at the end of pregnancy (TDF group: 3.06 ± 0.66; LDT group: 3.51 ± 1.20). P < 0.05); and the treatment response rate was 100%. There were no serious adverse events in the intervention group. Infants and young children (7-months-old) in the intervention group had negative HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV DNA. The mother-to-child transmission rate of HBV was zero, with blocking rate of 100%. In addition, both infants and young children had different degrees of hepatitis B protective antibodies (anti-HBs, M: 144.33), and their antibody titers were higher than that of non-intervention group (anti-HBs, M: 65.91) and non-hepatitis B pregnant women (anti-HBs, M: 58.43). The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), and there was no significant correlation between the use of antiviral and the way of delivery and feeding. Outcomes of mother-to-child transmission of HBV infection in infants and young children (7-months-old) delivered by three groups of pregnant women in the non-intervention groups had 20.0% (15/75)/ 17.3% (13/75) HBsAg/HBeAg positivity rate, and 17.3% (13/75) HBV DNA positivity rate. Overall, mother-to-child transmission rate of HBV infection was 20% (15/75). Furthermore, the relationship between mother's HBV DNA load and infant HBV infection in the non-intervention group showed mother's HBV DNA ≥10(6) IU/ml. Conclusion: In the non-intervention group, mother-to-child transmission of HBV occurred, and infected mothers HBV DNA was ≥106 IU/ml before delivery. This suggests that HBeAg positive and high load HBV DNA replication were independent risk factors for mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B. Therefore, prenatal drug intervention and postpartum standard immune blockade are necessary for high-risk pregnant women with hepatitis B to achieve zero mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B in real- clinical practice.

Objective: To investigate the infectious status, gene type transition and epidemiological features of rotavirus A isolated from infants and children (<59 months-of-age) in sentinel hospitals from 2008 to 2015 in Henan province, China. Methods: In total, 2 541 stool samples (each 3- 5 ml) were collected from infants and children aged less than five years in two sentinel hospitals and group A rotavirus was detected by a double antibody sandwich ELISA. Viral RNA was extracted from positive samples and G/P gene typing was performed using a two-step nested multiplex RT-PCR. Epidemiological information (including demographic information such as age, sex and clinical symptoms) was also collected from the patients and analyzed. Results: Group A rotavirus was detected in 30.9% (785/2 541) of diarrhea samples from children. The detection rate was higher in October (54.8%, 345/629) and lower in July (5%, 5/101) each year from 2008 to 2015. The group A rotavirus infection rate was higher in boys (30.6%, 451/1 476) than in girls (31.4%, 334/1 065) (χ2=0.18, P=0.664). Infection mainly occurred in 4-12 months old patients (61.3%, 481/785) (χ2=196.69, P<0.001), and the infection rate was lower in cities (26%, 258/992) compared with rural areas (34.0%, 527/1 549) (χ2=18.19, P<0.001). G typing of 785 strains of group A rotavirus revealed the following types: G1 (13.5%, 106 strains), G2 (11.1%, 87 strains), G3 (29.7%, 233 strains), and G9 (57.5%, 451 strains); P typing revealed the predominance of P[4] (11.3%, 89 strains) and P[8] (84.7%, 665 strains); gene type combinations comprised mainly G9P[8], G2P[4], G3P[8], G1P[8], respectively accounted for 52.9% (415), 9.7% (76), 17.3% (136), 11.3% (89). Gene type combinations G1 [8] and G3P[8] have been decreasing in prevalence since 2008 and G9P[8] has become the dominant gene type of group A rotavirus in Henan province. Among the group A rotavirus infection samples, the male:female infection ratio was 1.4â¶1 (451/334), with no significant difference in the infection rate (χ2=0.18, P=0.664); the infection rate was higher in 4- 12 months old patients (61.3%, 481/785), with a significant difference detected between age groups (χ2=196.69, P<0.001). The rate of detection was lower in cities (26.0%, 258/992) than in rural areas (34.0%, 527/1 549) (χ2=18.19, P<0.001). Clinical analysis revealed a body temperature of below 37 degrees in 75.7% of positive cases (594 patients), 37.0- 37.5 degrees in 17.2% of cases (135 patients), 37.6-38.0 degrees in 2.0% of cases (16 patients), and above 38 degrees in 5.1% of cases (40 patients), with most cases showing no fever or a mild fever. The frequency of episodes of diarrhea among the patients was 0- 3 times (21.1%, 166 cases), 4- 6 times (65.6%, 515 cases), 7- 9 times (8.0%, 63 cases), or 10- 15 times (5.2%, 41 cases), mainly showing mild and moderate diarrhea. Vomiting also varied in frequency among the patients from no vomiting (86.9%, 682 cases), 1-2 times (11.8%, 92 cases), 3 times (6.0%, 47 cases), and more than 3 times (0.4%, 3 cases). The occurrence of dehydration varied from no dehydration (86.9%, 682 cases), mild dehydration of 1%- 5% (12.1%, 95 cases), to severe dehydration of ≥5% (1.0%, 8 cases). Conclusion: A higher infection rate of group A rotavirus was detected in children younger than five years of age with acute diarrhea in sentinel hospitals in Henan province, including part-mixed infection cases. A predominance of cases was detected in the autumn, and secondly the spring of each year. Gene type G9P[8] was most frequently isolated. The majority of patients displayed no fever, vomiting or dehydration. The cases with clinical symptoms of fever, diarrhea, vomiting and dehydration often showed mild disease.

Objective: To analyze the serotypes and antibiotic resistance phenotypes of non-typhi Salmonella strains in Henan province from 2011 to 2015. Methods: The stool samples were collected from diarrhea patients, and enriched with SBG enrichment broth and the pathogen isolation was conducted with CHROMAgar selective culture medium at 37 â for 18-24 hours using KIA/MIU biochemical action and API20E biochemical system slab to identify Salmonella strains. The serotypes of all the positive strains were detected with SSI Salmonella typing sera. According to K-B drug susceptibility testing method published by USA clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), the antibiotics resistant phenotype of the positive strains were analyzed. Results: A total of 1 351 strains of non-typhi Salmonella were isolated, in which 811 were from males, 540 were from females. The ratio of men to women was 1.5â¶1. Children and young adults were mainly affected. The pathogen isolation was mainly in May-October during a year. The 1 351 strains of non-typhi Salmonlla were divided into 58 serotypes. S. enteritidis, S. typhimurium, S. agona, S. derby, S. indiana, S. senftenberg and S. thompson ranked 1st-7th. The drug-resistance rate of the 1 351 strains was 46.1% to synthetic broad-spectrum penicillin ampicillin (AMP), 19.5% and 21.2% to the three generation cephalosporin ceftazidime (CAZ) and cefotaxime (CTX), 8.8% to the four generation cephalosporins cefepime (FEP), 58.7% to the one generation of quinolones nalidixic acid (NAL), 14.7% to the three generation fluoroquinolone ciprofloxacin (CIP) and norfloxacin (NOR), 25.0% and 35.6% to aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin (GEN) and streptomycin (STR), 35.4% to amphenicols (CHL), 31.7% to sulfonamide trimethoprim (TMP) and 37.8% to tetracycline (TET). Totally 879 strains were multidrug resistant (65.1%): 350 strains were resistant to 3-4 kinds of antibiotics (25.9%), 309 strains were resistant to 5-7 kinds of antibiotics (22.9%), 174 strains were resistant to 8-10 kinds of antibiotics (12.9%) and 48 strains were resistant to 11-12 kinds of antibiotics (3.6%). Conclusion: The serotypes of non-typhi Salmonella strains isolated from Henan province varied, some strains were resistant to 12 kinds of antibiotics commonly used in clinical treatment and the multidrug resistance has become serious.
