[Toxicity Management and Efficacy Evaluation of BCMA-CART in the Treatment of Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma].

Objective: To investigate the toxicity management and efficacy evaluation of BCMA-chimeric antigen receptor T cells(CART) in the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (MM).

Methods: The efficacy and adverse reactions of 21 patients with MM who received BCMA-CART treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from December 2017 to September 2020 were evaluated, and the efficacy assessment and survival analysis for high-risk patients and non-high-risk patients were evaluated.

Results: After infusion of BCMA-CART cells in 21 MM patients, the number of effective cases was 17, of which the complete remission (sCR/CR) was 10, and the partial remission (VGPR/PR) was 7.

A Web of Science-based scientometric analysis about mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway in kidney disease from 1986 to 2020.

Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is vital for the regulation of cell metabolism, growth and proliferation in the kidney. This study aims to show current research focuses and predict future trends about mTOR pathway in kidney disease by the methods of scientometric analysis.

Methods: We referred to publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) Database.

[Functional prediction of Tanreqing Injection in brain diseases].

The study explores the application of Tanreqing Injection into brain components in brain diseases. The components of Tanreqing Injection and its existing components in rat cerebrospinal fluid were qualitatively analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS). The possible mechanism of action of Tanreqing Injection into brain on brain diseases was predicted by network pharmacological theory.

[Explore compatibility mechanism of Xingnaojing injection in treating cerebral infarction based on network pharmacology].

This paper aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of Xingnaojing injection and its scientific connotation of compatibility mechanism from a new perspective on bioinformatics and network biology. Based on the analysis function of intergrative pharmacology platform V1.0, the compatibility mechanism of this prescription was investigated by constructing the herbs-compounds-targets network.

[Treatment Selection of Elderly Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients Guided by HCT-CI Score].

Objective: To explore the feasibility of guiding the individalized treatment strategy for elderly AML patients by using hematopoietic cell transplantation-comorbidity index(HCT-CI) score.

Methods: The clinical and biological data of 165 elderly (260 years) AML patients in department of hematology of the first affiliated hospital of Wenzhou medical universtity from January 2000 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The AML patients were divided into 3 groups: score 0-1, 2-3 and ≥4 according to HCT-CI, then the patients in each group again were divided into standard chemotherapy group, low dose chemotherapy group and support therapy group accoriding to therapeutic regimens, and the efficacy of above mentioned 3 kinds of treatment and their effects on survival of ealderly AML patients were compared, the prognostic risk factors for patients were analyzed further.

Intestinal trefoil factor maybe useful in prophylaxis of acute graft-versus-host disease.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation, GVHD pathophysiology can be divided into three phases, damage to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in phase 1, principally by inflammatory cytokines, amplifies LPS release and leads to the "cytokine storm" characteristic of severe acute GVHD. It has been proved that disruption of phase 1 of the GVHD cascade is effective in prophylaxis of acute GVHD. Intestinal trefoil factor (ITF), a member of trefoil factor family (TFF) domain peptides, was proved to be very effective in prevention and healing of acute dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis, and was also involved in protection against and recovery from intestinal mucositis induced by radiation and chemotherapy.

[Construction of anti-cD20scFv/CD80/CD28/zeta recombinant gene modified T cell and research on its targeting cytotoxicity].

Objective: To construct anti-CD20scFv/CD80/CD28/zeta recombinant gene modified T cells, test its effectiveness of eradicating CD20+ lymphoma cells and provide a probably new approach to tumor adoptive immunotherapy.

Methods: CD28-zeta cDNA were amplified from vector pBULLET and inserted into pLNCX vector that contained anti-CD20scFv/CD80 gene. The recombinant vectors were transduced into PA317 cells and high titer retroviruses were obtained to infect human peripheral blood T lymphocytes.

[Apoptosis induced by hydroquinone in bone marrow mononuclear cells in vitro].

Objective: To study the effect of hydroquinone on apoptosis of bone marrow mononuclear cells, and to evaluate the toxic effect of benzene on stem cells.

Methods: Cell morphology was observed by HT fluorescent stain method, and DNA fragments were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Anti-Annexin V FITC plus PI staining for apoptotic and necrotic rate was examined by flow cytometer.

Extraction and purification of biologically active intestinal trefoil factor from human meconium.

Intestinal trefoil factor (TFF3/ITF), a member of trefoil factor family (TFF) domain peptides, is normally expressed by goblet cells and secreted into the lumen of the intestinal tract, and plays an important role in the maintenance and repair of the intestinal mucosal barrier. Significant amounts of TFF3/ITF are present in the meconium of human infants. Here, we describe a relatively simple method for extraction and purification of natural human TFF3/ITF from meconium.
