RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To localize and identify the insecticidal crystal protein genes (cry genes) in high-toxic Bacillus thuringiensis strain 4.0718. METHODS: The genomic DNA of B. thuringiensis strain 4.0718 was isolated by pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and the PFGE pattern and plasmid pattern were characterized. The cry genes in the strain were analyzed by Southern blot and the cry gene types on the chromosome and plasmid were identified by PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of the PCR-amplified fragments (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS: Southern blots showed that the cry genes in B. thuringiensis strain 4.0718 are present on both chromosome and plasmid. PCR and RFLP patterns showed that the chromosome and plasmid contain four cry genes, cry1Aa, crylAc, cry2Aa, and cry2Ab. However, the cry genes on the chromosome may be incomplete, while the cry1Aa and cry1Ac genes localized on the plasmid were found to contain the full coding sequence. CONCLUSION: The abundant cry genes were first found on chromosome of B. thuringiensis strain 4.0718, and the cry-type genes are the same as the plasmid.

RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the clinical and CT imaging features of immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated pneumonia (CIP) and to improve the early diagnostic ability of CIP.Methods:From June 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021, the clinical data and chest CT images of 2 067 patients with advanced malignant tumor treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) in the First Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with CIP were enrolled according to the guidelines for CIP diagnosis, and the incidence, time from the start of medication to the onset of CIP, medication cycle, imaging features, imaging patterns, CT grade and outcomes were analyzed. χ 2 test was used to compare the incidence of CIP in patients with or without basic lung disease. Results:Among 2 067 patients with malignant tumors treated with ICI, 67 patients developed CIP, the incidence of CIP was 3.2%. The incidence of CIP was significantly different between 386 patients with basic lung disease (7.00%, 27/386) and 1 681 patients without basic lung disease (2.4%, 40/1 681) (χ 2=21.32, P<0.001). The time from the start of medication to the onset of CIP was 7-367 d (median 52 days), and the duration of medication was 1-12 cycles (median 2 cycles). The imaging features of CIP presented as ground glass opacities in 54 cases (80.6%), solid nodules in 26 cases (38.8%), consolidations in 25 cases (37.3%) and irregular reticular opacities in 24 cases (35.8%). The main radiologic pattern was organizing pneumonia (OP, 34 cases, 50.7%), and followed by diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) pattern (14 cases, 20.9%). According to CT grading, there were 26 cases in low risk grade, 17 cases in moderate risk grade and 24 cases in high risk grade. Of 43 low-and medium-risk grade cases, 25 were OP pattern, accounting for 58.1%, and among 24 high-risk grade patients, 13 were DAD pattern, accounting for 54.2%. Forty-three of the 52 patients were initially untreated, of which 23 patients progressed, 17 had lesion shrinkage, and 3 had resolution, and relapsed in 8 cases after resolution or drug withdrawal. Conclusions:The imaging manifestations of CIP are mainly ground glass opacities, nodules, consolidations, and irregular reticular opacities. The radiologic patterns are mainly OP and DAD. OP is the most common pattern in low-moderate risk grade CIP and DAD is the most common pattern in high risk grade CIP. Patients with basic lung disease are more likely to get CIP.
RESUMEN
@#To investigate the effects of clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors on oral bioavailability and brain penetration of gefitinib, 16 inhibitors and gefitinib were co-administered orally to ICR mice. The suspension of gefitinib and CMC-Na were co-administered to the control group. The suspension of gefitinib and clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors were co-administered to the control group. Blood samples and brain homogenate samples were extracted by protein precipitation with acetonitrile and determinated by LC-MS/MS. It was found that ritonavir can significantly increase the oral bioavailability of gefitinib, and the area under the plasma concentration-time curves(AUC)of gefitinib was increased by 2 times; while brain exposure was increased, there was no increment in brain penetration. Some other drugs can also increase the plasma AUC of gefitinib, but can not enhance the brain penetration; After we corrected brain concentration with fraction of unbound drug in brain, it was found that the brain concentration of gefitinib in both control group and ritonavir group did not achieve the in vitro IC50 of inhibiting non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)cell growth. Our results suggest that clinical doses of the 16 clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors can not specifically increase brain tissue exposure, more specific and safer P-gp inhibitors are required. After we corrected brain concentrations with fraction of unbound drug in brain, our preclinical studies found that insufficient brain exposure may be one of the reasons for the unsatisfactory efficacy of gefitinib in the treatment of brain metastases.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the direction value of endovascular pressure differences in endovascular management of subclavian steal syndrome (SSS).Methods Eleven SSS patients accepted endovascular management,admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2017,were collected in this study.Before and after operation,pressure-sensing wire was used to measure endovascular pressure differences (mean distal stenosis pressure minus mean proximal pressure),digital substraction angiography (DSA) was used to assess the stenotic rate,transcranial doppler (TCD) was used to assess the steal degrees,and electronic sphygmomanometer was used to measure the systolic pressure differences between bilateral brachial arteries.The pressure differences before and after endovascular management were compared.Before operation,the relations of pressure differences with stenotic rate,steal degrees and systolic pressure differences between bilateral brachial arteries were analyzed.After operation,the relations of pressure differences with stealing and clinical symptom improvements were analyzed.The predictive values of pressure differences and residual stenosis in clinic success were compared.Results (1) After operation,the blood stealing disappeared and the clinical symptoms improved in 10 patients;although residual stenotic rate of one patient decreased obviously,blood stealing and clinical symptoms still existed after operation;the clinic success rate was 90.9%(10/11).(2) Pressure differences before surgery ([11.2±5.7] mmHg) were significantly higher as compared with those after the surgery ([2.5±5.3] mmHg,P<0.05).(3) Before operation,pressure differences were significantly correlated with stenotic rate (r=0.757,P=0.007) and bilateral systolic pressure differences (r=0.701,P=0.016).Six patients had pressure differences of 6-9 mmHg,enjoying degree I and Ⅱ of stealing,and 5 patients had pressure differences ≥ 10 mmHg,enjoying degree Ⅲ of stealing.(4) After operation,pressure difference was 18 mmHg in one patient without clinic success,but pressure differences were ≤ 3 mmHg in 10 patients with clinic success.(5) Significant difference was noted between the two clinic success indexes (residual stenotic rate ≤ 30% by DSA and pressure differences ≤ 3 mmHg,P<0.05).Conclusion Endovascular pressure differences can reflect the hemodynamic changes before and after endovascular management;as compared with residual stenosis,it is better to predict the clinic success after operation;it is useful to guide the endovascular management in the SSS patients.

RESUMEN
Cryptotanshinone (CPT) is a natural compound isolated from traditional Chinese medicine Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. In the present study, the regulatory effect and potential mechanisms of CPT on tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) induced lectin-like receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein (LOX-1) were investigated. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured and the effect of TNF-α on LOX-1 expression at mRNA and protein levels was determined by Real-time PCR and Western blotting respectively. The formation of intracellular ROS was determined with fluorescence probe CM-DCFH2-DA. The endothelial ox-LDL uptake was evaluated with DiI-ox-LDL. The effect of CPT on LOX-1 expression was also evaluated with SD rats. TNF-α induced LOX-1 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner in endothelial cells. TNF-α induced ROS formation, phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and ERK, and LOX-1 expression, which were suppressed by rotenone, DPI, NAC, and CPT. NF-κB inhibitor BAY11-7082 and ERK inhibitor PD98059 inhibited TNF-α-induced LOX-1 expression. CPT and NAC suppressed TNF-α-induced LOX-1 expression and phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and ERK in rat aorta. These data suggested that TNF-α induced LOX-1 expression via ROS activated NF-κB/ERK pathway, which could be inhibited by CPT. This study provides new insights for the anti-atherosclerotic effect of CPT.
