目的探讨乙肝相关性肝癌临床病理学特征与溶血磷脂酸(LPA)和高敏C反应蛋白(hs-CRP)表达的相关性。方法选取2019年1月至2020年1月间河南省驻马店市中心医院收治的198例乙肝相关性肝癌患者作为乙肝组,198例酒精相关性肝癌患者作为酒精组。两组患者都进行血清hs-CRP和LPA表达检测,调查患者的病理学特征并进行相关性分析。结果乙肝组患者血清hs-CRP和LPA含量均高于酒精组,差异均有统计学意义(均P <0.05)。两组患者血清ALP、AFP、ALT、AST和GGT含量比较,差异均无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。乙肝组不同临床分期和组织学分化患者的血清hs-CRP和LPA含量比较,差异均有统计学意义(均P <0.05)。乙肝组患者的临床分期和组织学分化与血清hs-CRP和LPA表达均存在相关性,差异均有统计学意义(均P <0.05)。患者的临床分期和组织学分化均为影响hs-CRP和LPA表达的重要因素,差异均有统计学意义(均P <0.05)。结论相对于酒精相关性肝癌,乙肝相关性肝癌的血清hs-CRP和LPA呈现高表达,与患者的临床病理学特征存在相关性。     

Metabolism of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) by Streptomyces griseolus CYP105A1 and its variants

In the field of drug development, technology for producing human metabolites at a low cost is required. In this study, we explored the possibility of using prokaryotic water-soluble cytochrome P450 (CYP) to produce human metabolites. Streptomyces griseolus CYP105A1 metabolizes various non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including diclofenac, mefenamic acid, flufenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, and ibuprofen. CYP105A1 showed 4′-hydroxylation activity towards diclofenac, mefenamic acid, flufenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, and meclofenamic acid. It should be noted that this reaction specificity was similar to that of human CYP2C9. In the case of mefenamic acid, another metabolite, 3′-hydroxymethyl mefenamic acid, was detected as a major metabolite. Substitution of Arg at position 73 with Ala in CYP105A1 dramatically reduced the hydroxylation activity toward diclofenac, flufenamic acid, and ibuprofen, indicating that Arg73 is essential for the hydroxylation of these substrates. In contrast, substitution of Arg84 with Ala remarkably increased the hydroxylation activity towards diclofenac, mefenamic acid, and flufenamic acid. Recombinant Rhodococcus erythrocyte cells expressing the CYP105A1 variant R84A/M239A showed complete conversion of diclofenac into 4′-hydroxydiclofenac. These results suggest the usefulness of recombinant R. erythropolis cells expressing actinomycete CYP, such as CYP105A1, for the production of human drug metabolites.     

People living in disadvantaged areas faced greater challenges in staying active and using recreational facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic

This study aimed to understand the perceived effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on physical activity, recreation walking, and use of recreational facilities; and if the COVID-19 pandemic amplified disparities in physical activity, recreational walking, and use of recreational facilities related to the levels of neighborhood disadvantage. Recreational walking and the use of neighborhood streets and green spaces significantly decreased in high deprivation areas but not in low deprivation areas during the pandemic. While COVID-19 has negatively affected overall recreational activities, the inequitable impact on recreational walking and use of outdoor recreational facilities has been more evident in disadvantaged neighborhoods with greater deprivation.     

The effects of multi-directional,high intensity exercise on the vestibular/ocular motor screening (VOMS) assessment in recreational athletes

ObjectiveIdentify the effects of multi-directional, high intensity exercise on VOMS symptom scores in male and female recreational, college-aged athletes.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingAthletic Therapy facility.ParticipantsA convenience sample of 29 (15 females, 14 males; 21.48 ± 1.40 years old) healthy recreational athletes.Main outcome measuresVOMS symptom scores pre, immediately post-, and 10 min post a multidirectional, high intensity intermittent exercise protocol (HIIP). Friedman tests and Wilcoxon Signed Rank tests identified significant differences at the time points. A Mann-Whitney U Test investigated the effect of sex.ResultsThe majority of component and overall VOMS symptom scores increased post-HIIP (p < 0.001–0.007, effect sizes 0.39–0.50) and 10 min post-HIIP (p = 0.003–0.015, effect sizes 0.32–0.39). Near point convergence distance increased immediately post-HIIP (p < 0.001, effect size 0.52). Females had higher smooth pursuits (z = −2.340, p = 0.019, r = 0.31), vertical vestibular ocular reflex (z = −2.81, p = 0.04, r = 0.39) visual motion sensitivity (z = −2.312, p = 0.021 r = 0.30) and overall VOMS symptom scores (z = −2.84, p = 0.04, r = 0.27) 10 min post-HIIP.ConclusionsMultidirectional, high intensity exercise can induce concussive-like changes in VOMS symptom scores in healthy, recreational athletes, particularly in females. These results may assist in SRC assessment and management of athletes involved in multidirectional, high intensity sports.

Augmented reality guided condylectomy

An accurate transfer of a 3D virtual planned proportional condylectomy to the patient is challenging due to the limited surgical access. A new clinical workflow that uses augmented reality to assist a condylectomy is presented step-by-step. This AR-based approach has the potential to be implemented in the clinical setting routinely.     

Semi-perfusion cultures of suspension MDCK cells enable high cell concentrations and efficient influenza A virus production

Control and prevention of rapid influenza spread among humans depend on the availability of efficient and safe seasonal and pandemic vaccines, made primarily from inactivated influenza virus particles. Current influenza virus production processes rely heavily on embryonated chicken eggs or on cell culture as substrate for virus propagation. Today’s efforts towards process intensification in animal cell culture could innovate viral vaccine manufacturing using high-yield suspension cells in high cell density perfusion processes. In this work, we present a MDCK cell line adapted to grow as single cell suspension with a doubling time of less than 20 h, achieving cell concentrations over 1 × 10⁷ cells/mL in batch mode. Influenza A virus titer obtained in batch infections were 3.6 log₁₀(HAU/100 µL) for total- and 10⁹ virions/mL for infectious virus particles (TCID₅₀), respectively. In semi-perfusion mode concentrations up to 6 × 10⁷ cells/mL, accumulated virus titer of 4.5 log₁₀(HAU/100 µL) and infectious titer of almost 10¹⁰ virions/mL (TCID₅₀) were possible. This exceeds results reported previously for cell culture-based influenza virus propagation by far and suggests perfusion cultures as the preferred method in viral vaccine manufacturing.
