Quality evaluation of cryoprecipitate coagulation factors from buffy coat-derived plasma at different time periods / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To investigate the quality of cryoprecipitates prepared from buffy coat-derived plasma of fresh whole blood at room temperature 20℃-24℃ isolated at different time periods, explore the optimal time for preparing cryoprecipitates, so as to improve the utilization rate of blood. 【Methods】 A total of 250 bags of whole blood collected by CPDA-1 and stored at 20℃-24℃ from October 2020 to December 2020 were randomly selected as the experimental group, and divided into groups A1 (0-8 h), A2 (8-10 h), A3 (10-12 h), A4 (12-14 h) and A5 (14-16 h) (with 50 bags in each group) according to the preparation time point. The upper-buff-coat plasma was separated and quickly frozen as the source for cryoprecipitates. Meanwhile, another 50 bags of fresh frozen plasma prepared within 0-16h after routine storage at 2℃-6℃ were randomly selected as the control group (group B), which was used as the raw plasma to make cryoprecipitate. Coagulation factor Ⅷ (Ⅷ factor) and fibrinogen (FIB) were detected, and the effect of different preparation time and different storage temperature on the content of factor Ⅷ and FIB and the pass rate were compared. 【Results】 In comparison to the control group, the Ⅷ factor content of groups A4 and A5 was significantly decreased, and the differences between groups A4, A5 and B were statistically significant (P0.05). The Factor Ⅷ content ≥60 IU/ bag prepared from buffy coat-derived plasma accounted for 96.4% (1.5 U) in the experimental group. 【Conclusion】 The buffy coat-derived plasma prepared within 12 h at 20℃-24℃ is suitable for preparing 2 U cryoprecipitate coagulation factor, while that prepared within 12-16 h is suitable for preparing 1.5 U cryoprecipitate coagulation factor.

Quality analysis of platelet concentrates prepared with optimized blood collection bags / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To evaluate the quality of platelet concentrates prepared by two different blood collection bags, so as to provide references for the development of high-quality platelet preparation. 【Methods】 Platelet concentrates were prepared using buffy coating from the whole blood collected by conventional and optimized single-use blood collection bags with leukoreduction filter, respectively.

Analysis of risk factors of bile leakage in patients after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture / 国际外科学杂志

Objective To explore the risk factors of bile leakage in patients with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture for the purpose of providing clues for reducing occurrence of bile leakage.Methods The clinic data of 193 choledocholithiasis patients with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture from October 2012 to March 2017 were retrospective analysed.All patients were divided into bile leakage group (23 patients) and non-bile leakage group (170 patients).Risk factors influencing the incidence of bile leakage were determined by analyzing 21 relevant factors with one-way analysis of variance and Logistic multivariate regression analysis.Count data and ordinal data was expressed as frequency or a percentage.Chi-square test was used to compare with groups of count data,rank-sum test was for comparison between groups of ordinal data,and Logistic regression was for multivariate analysis.Results Among all the patients,the incidence of bile leakage was 11.92％ (23/193).The results of univariate analysis revealed that cholangitis,jaundice,bile characteristics,muddy stone,number of stones,incarcerated stone,open and close peristalsis of duodenal papilla were correlated with bile leakage (x2/Z =2.537,2.122,81.834,50.709,13.242,26.958,90.207,P ＜0.05).The result of multivariate analysis revealed that bile characteristics,muddy stone,incarcerated stone,open and close peristalsis of duodenal papilla was correlated with bile leakage (Wals =14.002,8.899,6.577,5.582,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Bile characteristics,muddy stone,incarcerated stone,open and close peristalsis of duodenal papilla were main risk factors of bile leakage in patients with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture.

Linear polarization difference imaging and its potential applications.

We demonstrate a novel linear polarization imaging technique and its potential application in dermatology. This technique records a series of images corresponding to different combinations of illumination and detection polarization and calculates intensity differences between orthogonal detection polarizations pixel by pixel. Fitting the polarization difference data to an analytical expression of the incident and detection polarization angles results in two new parameters, G and (phi3)/2. It is shown that G is strongly correlated to the order of alignment of the fibrous structure in the sample, and (phi3)/2 represents the angle of orientation of the fibers. Preliminary clinical testing implies that this method may be applied for medical diagnosis of skin diseases.

Relationship between N-linked oligosaccharides in SEA module and proteolytic cleavage within C-terminal domain of rodent Muc3 / 第三军医大学学报

Objective The C-terminal domain of rodent Muc3 is proteolytically cleaved.This study is to explore the relationship between N-linked oligosaccharides in SEA module and the proteolytic cleavage within C-terminal domain of rodent Muc3.Methods Truncated rodent Muc3 C-terminal domains with complete SEA module(p20SEA) were produced by site-directed mutagenesis to insert a stop code in the required place.Proteins were detected by pulse/chase and immunoprecipitation method,or SDS/PAGE and Western blot.Inhibition of glycosylation of the expressed protein was performed by using tunicamycin.Results Muc3 C-terminal domain was posttranslationally cleaved to produce a V5-tagged 30 000 extracellular glycopeptide and a Myc-tagged 49 000 membrane-associated glycopeptide.Treatment with tunicamycin to transfected COS-1 cells led to the abundant production of 60 000 uncleaved and whole-length Muc3 C-terminal domain,the 30 000 N-terminal fragment shifted to 22 000 and 49 000 C-terminal fragment shifted to 41 000 after deglycosylation.The truncated Muc3 C-terminal domain containing complete SEA module but without the following residues led to production of 36 000 uncleaved and whole-length protein,and 30 000 cleaved product shifted to 22 000 after deglycosylation.Conclusion Proteolytic cleavage in both complete rodent C-terminal domain and complete SEA module without the following residues were partially inhibited by tunicamycin.

Influence of proteolytic cleavage blockage and N-linked oligosaccharide inhibition on the membrane targeting of rodent Muc3 C-terminal domain / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To explore the correlation between membrane targeting of rodent Muc3 C-terminal domain and proteolytic cleavage blockage within its SEA module and N-linked oligosaccharides inhibition.Methods COS-1 cells were transfected with three different expression vectors containing rodent Muc3 C-terminal domain,namely p20,p20t and p20s/a by lipofectAMINE reagent.Inhibition of N-glycosylation of the expressed protein was performed by using tunicamycin.The transfected COS-1 cells(fixed or unfixed) were detected by immunolocalization experiments(anti-V5 and anti-Myc antibody) for the protein expression.Results In fixed COS-1 cells,the expressed product of p20 transfectant detected using both anti-Myc and anti-V5 antibodies was found to localize in perinuclear position and on the plasma membrane.While in the unfixed cells,immunostaining was only confined on cell surface using anti-V5 antibody.The expressed product of p20t transfectant was detected by anti-V5 antibody to localize only in perinuclear region,as observed in a few fixed cells.The distribution of p20s/a fluorescence resembled that of p20 transfectant.Plasma membrane targeting of the non-glycosylated products due to tunicamycin treatment still occurred in transfected COS-1 cells and resembled the glycosylated products.Conclusions The blockage of proteolytic cleavage within C-terminal domain of rodent Muc3 and its inhibition of N-linked oligosaccharides in SEA module cannot affect its membrane targeting.The only apparent requirement for membrane targeting is the transmembrane and/or cytoplasmic tail segments which exist in the C-terminal domains of rMuc3.
