Objective:To explore the expression and clinical significance of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and quinone oxidoreductase (NQO-1) in children with different severity levels of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection.Methods:A total of 140 children with MP infection who were treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January to June 2022 were selected as the observation group, while 100 healthy children who underwent physical examination were selected as the control group. The serum levels of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interferon γ (IFN-γ), HO-1, and relative expression of NQO-1 protein were compared between the control group and the observation group, as well as between children with different degrees of MP infection, Forced vital capacity (FVC), maximum expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1), peak expiratory flow rate (PEF), 50% forced expiratory flow rate and maximum mid expiratory flow rate (MEF 25-70), 50% forced expiratory flow rate (MEF 50), and 25% forced expiratory flow rate (MEF 25). Pearson correlation method was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of HO-1 and NQO-1 with inflammatory factors and lung function indicators. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the value of HO-1 and NQO-1 expression in predicting severe MP. Results:The serum levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ, and HO-1 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), while the relative expression level of NQO-1 protein was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). The FVC, FEV 1, PEF, MEF 25-70, MEF 50, and MEF 25 in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The serum levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ, and HO-1 in the observation group of severe children were significantly higher than those in mild children (all P<0.05), while the relative expression of NQO-1 protein, FVC, FEV 1, PEF, MEF 25-70, MEF 50, and MEF 25 were significantly lower than those in mild children (all P<0.05). HO-1 in children with MP infection is positively correlated with IL-6, IL-1β, and IFN-γ, while the relative expression level of NQO-1 protein is negatively correlated with IL-6, IL-1β, and IFN-γ (all P<0.05); HO-1 was negatively correlated with MEF 50 and MEF 25, while the relative expression level of NQO-1 protein was positively correlated with MEF 50 (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve for predicting the relative expression levels of HO-1 and NQO-1 proteins in severe MP was 0.871 and 0.934, respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The expression of serum HO-1 and NQO-1 in children with MP infection is correlated with cytokines and lung function indicators, and has certain application value in predicting severe illness.

Uveal melanoma (UM) is one of most common ocular cancers and is extremely malignant; so far there is no effective treatment. Moreover, the survival period is only 2-7 months after metastasis. It has been proven that more than 83% of uveal melanomas harbor mutations in G protein subunit α q (GNAQ) or G protein subunit α 11 (GNA11), among which 95% are a Q209P/L single-site mutation. Q209P/L mutations lead to dysfunction of guanine triphosphatase (GTPase) in the G protein and result in constitutive activation of downstream pathways including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT), Ras homologue (Rho)/ Rho-associated kinase (Rock)/Yes-associated protein (YAP) and others. Therefore, targeting GNAQ/GNA11 mutations are potential strategies for UM treatment. This review will focus on roles of G protein mutations in UM progression, and the potential therapeutic effects of GNAQ/GNA11 inhibitors, and will provide insights into basic and clinical research on UM treatment.

To analyze the efficacy and safety of Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets combined with desloratadine as well as desloratadine alone in the treatment of chronic urticaria by Meta-analysis,in order to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment.PubMed,CBM,Wan Fang,VIP database and CNKI database were retrieved to collect randomized controlled trials( RCT) about Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets combined with desloratadine( test group) as well as desloratadine alone( control group) in the treatment of chronic urticaria. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5. 3 software after data extraction and quality evaluation( a total of 15 RCTs were included,involving 1 411 patients). Meta-analysis showed that the total effective rate( RR = 1. 28,95%CI[1. 22,1. 35],P<0. 000 01) and the quality of life improvement rate( RR = 1. 49,95% CI[1. 33,1. 66],P< 0. 000 01) of the test group were better than those of the control group,and the recurrence rate( RR = 0. 29,95%CI[0. 21,0. 40],P<0. 000 01) was significantly lower than that of the control group,with statistically significant differences; there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions( RR = 1. 02,95%CI[0. 68,1. 53],P = 0. 92) compared with the control group. Based on the included RCTs,the efficacy of Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets combined with desloratadine in the treatment of chronic urticaria were superior to those of desloratadine alone,with similarity in safety. However,due to the low quality of RCTs and the lack of large-scale multi-center studies,the results shall not be further verified by clinical trials.

To unravel the genetic mechanisms of disease and physiological traits, it requires comprehensive sequencing analysis of large sample size in Chinese populations. Here, we report the primary results of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Precision Medicine Initiative (CASPMI) project launched by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, including the de novo assembly of a northern Han reference genome (NH1.0) and whole genome analyses of 597 healthy people coming from most areas in China. Given the two existing reference genomes for Han Chinese (YH and HX1) were both from the south, we constructed NH1.0, a new reference genome from a northern individual, by combining the sequencing strategies of PacBio, 10× Genomics, and Bionano mapping. Using this integrated approach, we obtained an N50 scaffold size of 46.63 Mb for the NH1.0 genome and performed a comparative genome analysis of NH1.0 with YH and HX1. In order to generate a genomic variation map of Chinese populations, we performed the whole-genome sequencing of 597 participants and identified 24.85 million (M) single nucleotide variants (SNVs), 3.85 M small indels, and 106,382 structural variations. In the association analysis with collected phenotypes, we found that the T allele of rs1549293 in KAT8 significantly correlated with the waist circumference in northern Han males. Moreover, significant genetic diversity in MTHFR, TCN2, FADS1, and FADS2, which associate with circulating folate, vitamin B12, or lipid metabolism, was observed between northerners and southerners. Especially, for the homocysteine-increasing allele of rs1801133 (MTHFR 677T), we hypothesize that there exists a "comfort" zone for a high frequency of 677T between latitudes of 35-45 degree North. Taken together, our results provide a high-quality northern Han reference genome and novel population-specific data sets of genetic variants for use in the personalized and precision medicine.

BACKGROUND: Long-term complications of cesarean section include placenta praevia, placenta accreta, cesarean scar pregnancy and uterine rupture. These life-threatening complications in pregnant women maybe result from the defects of endometrium and uterine smooth muscle as well as poorly formed decidua in the scar of cesarean section. Mesenchymal stem cells have the function of repairing tissue injuries, and the amount of cells homing to the site of injury may affect the effect of tissue repair. OBJECTIVE: To explore the distribution and homing of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from male rats into rat models of cesarean section. METHODS: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells isolated from male rats in vitro were cultured and identified. Female Wistar rats were randomized into two groups: cesarean section group and control group. Rats in the cesarean section group were given intravenous administration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from male rats via the tail vein on day 21 after cesarean section, and non-operative rats in the control groups were given the same amount of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from male rats after natural delivery. Rats in the two groups were sacrificed on days 7 and 28 after cell injection. The distribution of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from male rats in tissues (including heart, lungs, livers, kidneys, and uterine scar) was detected by measurement of the SRY mRNA level using SPY-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the cesarean section group, the SRY gene was most abundant in the lung, followed by the liver and the kidney on day 7 after injection, although the distribution of SRY gene in the heart and uterine scar was low; on day 28 after injection, the levels of SRY gene in the lung, liver and kidney decreased (P < 0.05), but had no significant changes in the heart and uterine scar (P > 0.05). In the control group, the distribution of SRY gene was similar to that in the cesarean section group on both days 7 and 28 after injection, and the levels of SRY gene in the heart and uterus were low. These findings reveal that allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells implanted mainly distribute in tissues with abundant blood flow, including lungs, livers and kidneys. And the cell number decreases gradually over time. Since the amount of implanted cells in the heart and uterus is very low, the change with time is not obvious. Cesarean section injury has no impact on the distribution of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in pregnant rats and there is of course no increase in the homing and colonization of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in a cesarean scar.

A series of bio-based thermosetting polyurethanes (Bio-PUs) were synthesized by the crosslinking reaction of polylactide and its copolymers diols with hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) trimer. The obtained Bio-PUs were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), universal tensile testing machine and cytotoxicity test. Results indicate that the PLA copolymer (P(LA-co-CL)) diols reduced the glass transition temperature (Tg) of Bio-PUs and improved their thermal stability, compared with PLA diols. The Bio-PUs synthesized from P (LA-co-CL) diols exhibit better mechanical performance and shape memory properties. Especially, Young modulus and elongation at break of the obtained Bio-PUs were 277.7 MPa and 230% respectively; the shape recovery time of the obtained Bio-PUs at body temperature was only 93 s. Furthermore, alamar blue assay results showed that the obtained Bio-PUs had no cell toxicity.
