Abstract
Diversity comparison and phylogenetic analyses of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), auxiliary activities (AAs) and cytochromes P450 among 40 fungi, which are based on different nutritional pathways, help clarify and explain their divergence and improvement of various life-styles. Molecular clock analyses allow us to understand the evolutionary and developmental rules in decomposition gene families. Our results suggested that fungi in different ecological types acquired an obvious preference on specific decomposing gene families during evolutionary selection. White rot and litter saprotrophic fungi possessed more complete types of varied degradation gene families and were superior in quantities. With evolution and development of lignocellulose decomposition mechanism, certain families (like CBM1, GH6, GH7, GH10, and CYP53) disappeared in brown rot fungi and symbiotic fungi. In addition, the earlier time of phylogenetic divergence determined the more integrated and larger decomposition families. And various gains and losses in gene quantity of varied decomposition families led in particularly phylogenetic clades or nodes, then accelerated in forming varied ecotypes of species.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the immune reconstruct regularity profile of KIR2DL1 and KIR3DL1 in unrelated-donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with KIR-AA genotype. Method: 75 donor-recipient pairs were performed by KIR genotying using PCR-SSP, and all donors were identified with KIR-AA genotype. Dynamic detections (including unrelated-donor on the day of transplantation and the recipient each month post allo-HSCT) of the expression of KIR2DL1/3DL1 on NK cell and mRNA level were performed in 291 cases using flow cytometry (FCM) and real-time fluorescent quantitation PCR (RT-qPCR) . Result: ①The median expression of KIR2DL1 in unrelated-donor on transplant's day was 21.60%, the median expression of KIR2DL1 in recipient 1M, 2M, 3M and 3-6M after transplantation were 7.40%, 12.00%, 16.92%, 17.64% respectively. The median expression of KIR2DL1 in unrelated-donor on transplant's day was 265.14 copies/10 000abl copies, the median expression of KIR2DL1 in recipient 1M, 2M, 3M, 3-6M, 6-9M, 9-12M after transplantation were 332.17, 438.31, 723.25, 414.17, 180.76 and 234.67 copies/10 000abl copies respectively. The median expression of KIR2DL1 on NK cells and mRNA level gradually increased at all time points after transplantation, and reached the highest expression at 3 months after transplantation. But mRNA expression levels increased earlier than NK cell membrane proteins. ②The median expression of KIR3DL1 in unrelated-donors on transplant's day was 18.56%, the median expression of KIR3DL1 in recipient 1M, 2M, 3M, 3-6M after transplantation were 23.83%, 22.57%, 23.02%, 21.60% respectively. The median expression of KIR3DL1 in unrelated-donor on transplant's day was 572.29 copies/10 000abl copies, the median expression of KIR3DL1 in recipient 1M, 2M, 3M, 3-6M, 6-9M, 9-12M after transplantation were 1 233.74, 1 140.42, 876.73, 1 057.07, 739.02 and 514.43 copies/10 000abl copies respectively. The median expression of KIR3DL1 on NK cells and mRNA level were higher than donors at 1 month after transplantation, and stable expression at all time points after transplantation, so mRNA and NK cell membrane proteins expression increased at the same time. Conclusion: The immune reconstruct regularity of KIR2DL1 and KIR3DL1 gene were different, which provided an experimental basis for selecting the best time to detect the expressions of KIR2DL1 and 3DL1 after transplantation.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of patients with Epstein Barr virus (EBV) encephalitis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: The clinical data of 7 patients with EBV encephalitis who had undergone allo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2012 to December 2015 were reviewed. Results: The incidence of EBV encephalitis was 0.70% (7/998) , and the median time was 63 (10-136) d after allo-HSCT. Seven patients had fever and mental disorder, of whom 4 cases of brain MRI were positive. Two patients received HLA-matched unrelated transplantation, while other 5 ones received haploidentical allo-HSCT. In conditioning regimen process, 7 patients were combined with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) , of whom 6 patients had grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD. All patients of EBV-DNA were negative in CSF after taking anti-virus agent Rituximab. Until the last follow-up, a total of 3 patients died, 2 died of leukemia recurrence, 1 EBV encephalitis progression. Conclusion: Once suspected EBV encephalitis after allo-HSCT, brain MRI and EBV-DNA in CSF should be detected, which could improve early diagnosis of EBV encephalitis. The usage of Rituximab was effective and well tolerated.

Abstract
Molecular tessellations are often discovered serendipitously, and the mechanisms by which specific molecules can be tiled seamlessly to form periodic tessellation remain unclear. Fabrication of molecular tessellation with higher symmetry compared with traditional Bravais lattices promises potential applications as photonic crystals. Here, we demonstrate that highly complex tessellation can be constructed on Au(111) from a single molecular building block, hexakis(4-iodophenyl)benzene (HPBI). HPBI gives rise to two self-assembly phases on Au(111) that possess the same geometric symmetry but different packing densities, on account of the presence of halogen-bonded and halogen–metal coordinated networks. Sub-domains of these phases with self-similarity serve as tiles in the periodic tessellations to express polygons consisting of parallelograms and two types of triangles. Our work highlights the important principle of constructing multiple phases with self-similarity from a single building block, which may constitute a new route to construct complex tessellations. Molecular tessellations of complex tilings are difficult to design and construct. Here, the authors show that molecular tessellations can be formed from a single building block that gives rise to two distinct supramolecular phases, whose self-similar subdomains serve as tiles in the periodic tessellations.

Abstract
Lipoid pneumonia (LP) is an uncommon form of pneumonia that is characterized by the presence of intra-alveolar lipid and lipid-laden macrophages on microscopy. It categorized as exogenous lipoid pneumonia (ExLP) and endogenous lipoid pneumonia (EnLP). Exogenous lipoid pneumonia caused by inhalation of liposuction substances (animal fat, vegetable oil, or mineral oil), mostly, in adult cases, they were medicines for constipation or rhinopharyngitis. Most of these patients showed mild clinical manifestations, and chronic medical condition. There were reports of lipoid pneumonia being successfully treated with corticosteroids, immunoglobulins and whole lung lavage. We report a case of exogenous lipoid pneumonia characterized by high fever and acute medical condition. A 77-year-old woman with hypertension and diabetes mellitus, accepted paraffin oil treatment for "incomplete intestinal obstruction", then, an accident of aspiration happened, as she went through the history of coughing while eating, followed by persistent hyperthermia and increases of white blood cells (WBC). Chest CT showed progressive ground-glass opacities, accompanied with fusion of consolidation, her sputum etiological examination was negative, and the therapy of broad-spectrum antibiotic was invalid. The patient was subjected to bronchofibroscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) appeared colorless and transparent, and did not show a milky appearence. Total cell count of the BALF was 2.0×109 cell/mL, including 7.2% macrophages and 92.8% neutrophils. Cultures of the BALF were negative for bacterial, fungal, and mycobacterial pathogens. The BALF cytologic findings showed vacuolated lipid-laden macrophages (Oil Red O staining). These findings revealed exogenous lipoid pneumonia. There were reports of lipoid pneumonia being successfully treated with corticosteroids, immunoglobulins, and whole-lung lavage. So this patient was treated with methylprednisolone 120 mg/d for 3 days and 80 mg/d for 6 days, at the same time, immunoglobulins was given to infusion, but the daily peak temperature of the patients fluctuated between 38 and 39 degrees. Then, whole lung lavage was performed 28 days after admission. Unfortunately, acute pulmonary edema occurred during the operation, as the tracheal intubation problems, and 6 days later, the patient died at last. The clinical manifestations of exogenous lipid pneumonia vary greatly, from asymptomatic to life-threatening symptoms, and as febrile low fever is the main manifestation, but hyperthermia may also be the remarkable presentation.

Abstract
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the preferred treatment for Stanford type B aortic dissection. Covered the left subclavian artery (LSA) directly may cause corresponding complications in Stanford type B aortic dissection with unfavourable proximal landing zone. TEVAR can be successfully implemented by reconstructing LSA to expand the proximal landing zone. Currently, the methods of reconstructing LSA mainly include hybridization technology (carotid-subclavian artery transposition), chimney technology (including branch stent technology) and fenestration (or slot technology), etc. These techniques are all valid for aortic dissection that needs to reconstructing LSA. The choices and applications of these techniques should follow the individualized principles.

Abstract
In our study, isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) was conducted to determine the significantly changed proteins in the fleshy roots of carrots under different carbon dioxide (CO2) treatments. A total of 1523 proteins were identified, of which 257 were differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). On the basis of annotation analysis, the DEPs were identified to be involved in energy metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and some other metabolic processes. DcC4H and DcPER, two lignin-related proteins, were identified from the DEPs. Under elevated CO2 stress, both carrot lignin content and the expression profiles of lignin biosynthesis genes changed significantly. The protein-protein interactions among lignin-related enzymes proved the importance of DcC4H and DcPER. The results of our study provided potential new insights into the molecular mechanism of lignin content changes in carrot roots under elevated CO2 stress.

Abstract
The study was to determine whether the expression of genes involved in intestinal water and ion transport would be affected by enterotoxigenic (ETEC) K88 both in vitro and in vivo. First, 36 male piglets (4 d old) were randomly allotted to either the control or the ETEC K88 group. Each group had 6 replicates with 3 piglets per replicate. All piglets were fed with the same diets for 17 d. On d 15, piglets in the ETEC K88 group were challenged with ETEC K88 (serotype O149:K91:K88ac) at 1 × 10 cfu per pig, whereas those in the control group received the same volume of sterile PBS. After being challenged with ETEC K88 for 72 h (d 18), 1 piglet from each replicate was selected for slaughter to collect samples from the jejunum, ileum, and colon. The mRNA expression and protein abundance of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the ileum and colon were increased compared with that in the control group ( < 0.05). Furthermore, the mRNA expression of () in the ileum and colon was increased by ETEC K88 challenge ( < 0.05), whereas in the jejunum, both its mRNA and protein expression were increased by ETEC K88 treatment ( < 0.05). Additionally, an established porcine intestinal epithelial cell line (IPEC-J2) was used to investigate the effect and possible mechanism of ETEC K88 on expression of water channel aquaporins (AQP) and ion transporters. Cells (1.17 × 10 per well) were grown in 6-well plates and treated with ETEC K88 at a multiplicity of infection of 50:1 for 3 h. The mRNA expression of , , and () in IPEC-J2 cells was reduced after ETEC K88 treatment ( < 0.05). Further analyses using western blotting also demonstrated that ETEC K88 decreased the protein expression of AQP3, AQP9, and AQP11 in IPEC-J2 cells ( < 0.05). Moreover, the phosphorylation levels of protein kinase A (PKA) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-response element binding protein (CREB) were decreased by ETEC K88 challenge ( < 0.05). The results indicate that ETEC K88 challenge induced differential expression of intestinal ion transporters and AQP in young piglets, probably by regulation of the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway. This study might provide new insights about the importance of fluid homeostasis in control of ETEC-induced diarrhea in young piglets.

Abstract
Nanostructured transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are proven to be efficient and robust earth-abundant electrocatalysts to potentially replace precious platinum-based catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, the catalytic efficiency of reported TMD catalysts is still limited by their low-density active sites, low conductivity, and/or uncleaned surface. Herein, a general and facile method is reported for high-yield, large-scale production of water-dispersed, ultrasmall-sized, high-percentage 1T-phase, single-layer TMD nanodots with high-density active edge sites and clean surface, including MoS2 , WS2 , MoSe2 , Mo0.5 W0.5 S2 , and MoSSe, which exhibit much enhanced electrochemical HER performances as compared to their corresponding nanosheets. Impressively, the obtained MoSSe nanodots achieve a low overpotential of -140 mV at current density of 10 mA cm-2 , a Tafel slope of 40 mV dec-1 , and excellent long-term durability. The experimental and theoretical results suggest that the excellent catalytic activity of MoSSe nanodots is attributed to the high-density active edge sites, high-percentage metallic 1T phase, alloying effect and basal-plane Se-vacancy. This work provides a universal and effective way toward the synthesis of TMD nanostructures with abundant active sites for electrocatalysis, which can also be used for other applications such as batteries, sensors, and bioimaging.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical manifestations, therapeutic efficacy, prognosis and characteristics of NPC1 mutation in Chinese patients with Niemann-Pick disease type C(NPC). Methods: Ten unrelated Chinese NPC patients were diagnosed by NPC1 mutation analysis from July 2013 to February 2017 in Beijing Tian Tan Hospital of Capital Medical University. Clinical data of 10 cases were analyzed retrospectively which included clinical manifestations, laboratory results and NPC1 gene mutation features, and a series of follow-up were carried out about therapeutic efficacy and prognosis. Results: Ten patients suffering from NPC included 5 males and 5 females, aged from 42 days to 14 years when they presented to Tian Tan Hospital. According to their age of neurological onset, 4 were in early infantile period, 2 in late infantile period, 2 in juvenile periods, and the other 2 cases in neonatal period. They all presented with splenomegaly, 5 of 10 accompanied with hepatomegaly. Two cases of neonatal subtype presented mainly with delayed neonatal cholestatic jaundice and hepatosplenomegaly, accompanied with decreased muscle tone and slight psychomotor retardation. The other 8 cases presented with severe neurological involvement, such as progressive encephalopathy, ataxia and language impairment, 4 with dystonia, 3 with decreased muscle tension, 5 with vertical supranuclear gaze palsy, 5 with gelastic cataplexy, and 4 with epilepsy. Eight of 9 cases presented with foam cells in their bone marrow. Head MRI showed diffuse cerebral atrophy in 8 cases, thin corpus callosum in 2 cases, and brain white matter abnormal signals in 2 cases. Among 10 cases, 18 different mutations of NPC1 allelic genes were identified including 11 reported mutations, 3 novel missense mutations: c. 3683T>C (p.Met1128Thr), c.1926G>C (p.Met642Iie) and c. 3006C>G (p.Phe1002Leu), 2 novel nonsense mutation: c. 1142G>A(p.Trp381Ter ) and c. 3229C>T(p.Arg1077Ter), 1 novel minimal deletion mutation: c. 1385-1386del, and 1 novel intron mutation: c. 1757+ 5G>A. In 5 cases, the symptom of gelastic cataplexy was alleviated by imipramine, and the convulsion was relieved by valproate in 2 cases, by carbamazepine in 1 case at the beginning of seizure. During the 25 (3-66) months of follow-up, 4 cases died, the others' neurological symptoms were deteriorated progressively. Conclusions: The NPC1 gene mutation were high heterozygous in this group, and 7 novel mutations enriched the gene mutation spectrum of NPC1. The neurological manifestations were complicated in patients with NPC, and the symptomatology would be different according to their onset age of neurological symptoms. There might be effective symptomatic treatment for gelastic cataplexy by imipramine and for convulsion by valproate or carbamazepine.

Abstract
As one of the transition metal dichalcogenide materials, WSe2 in the form of a few layers (nanosheets) have received much attention due to their unique physical, optical and electrical properties. Herein, we demonstrate that WSe2 nanosheets possess intrinsic enzyme mimic activity. Under acidic conditions, they exhibit pronounced peroxidase-like property. The Michaelis-Menten kinetics indicate that the catalytic activity of WSe2 nanosheets is comparable to that of horseradish peroxidase. Based on the color reaction, a platform of WSe2 nanosheets was constructed to detect glucose concentration and it showed high sensitivity and high selectivity, which means that WSe2 nanosheets with peroxidase-like property can be used to develop a highly sensitive and selective colorimetric method for glucose detection. Moreover, due to the electron-transferring and antioxidant properties of WSe2 few layers, the peroxidase-like catalysis is proposed. These findings pave the way for further application of WSe2 nanosheets in nano-biomedicine.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of hypertension and risk factors in Uygur adults in Kashgar of Xinjiang. Methods: A total of 4 748 Uygur adults aged ≥18 years selected through cluster random sampling in Shufu county of Kashgar prefecture were surveyed by means of questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory test. The prevalence, awareness, treatment and control rate of hypertension of different groups were calculated and risk factors of hypertension was analyzed by using non-conditional logistic regression model. Results: The overall prevalence of hypertension was 15.73% (age-adjusted prevalence was 13.75%). The prevalence rates of hypertension in men and women were 16.36% (age-adjusted prevalence was 12.96%), 15.39% (age-adjusted prevalence was 14.34%), respectively. The rates of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension were 59.57%, 52.74%, 21.29%, respectively. The prevalence of hypertension increased with age. Compared with age group 18-34 years, the age groups 55-64, ≥65 years had higher risk of hypertension and the OR values were 10.53, 20.96 for men and 16.27, 33.20 for women. The overweight (OR=1.47 for men, OR=1.82 for women, P<0.05) and obesity (OR=1.88 for men, OR=2.66 for women, P<0.05) also increased the risk of hypertension. The groups with family history of hypertension (OR=3.85 for men, OR=2.34 for women, P<0.05) also had higher risk of hypertension. Hypertriglyceridemia was positively correlated with the prevalence of hypertension in men (OR=1.62, 95%CI: 1.09-2.41). Conclusions: The prevalence of hypertension in Uygur adults in Kashgar area of Xinjiang was at relatively low level. The related risk factors were age, overweight, obesity, family history and hypertriglyceridemia in men and the risk factors were similar in women except hypertriglyceridemia.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) to chronic diseases and associated influencing factors in Uygur adults in Kashgar of southern Xinjiang, and provide basic information for developing ethnic specific prevention and control strategies for chronic diseases. Methods: With stratified cluster random sampling, investigations, including questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory tests were performed among local residents who were aged ≥18 years and selected in Shufu county in southern Xinjiang. KAP scores were calculated and unconditional logistic regression models were used to analyze influencing factors. Results: A total of 4 772 Uygur adults were surveyed. The awareness rate of chronic disease related knowledge ranged from 4.32% to 56.04%, while the awareness rate of preventive measures were from 1.76% to 85.18% and the participation rate of prevention program varied from 4.00% to 97.99%. The average KAP score was 15.90±4.20 and the rate of total KAP was 47.86%. Multi-factor analysis suggested the pass rate of total KAP score increased with educational level. Other factors positively associated with 'KAP score pass rate' were commercial insurance investment, hypertension, family history of common chronic diseases, female and abdominal obesity, while overweight was negatively associated with the KAP score pass rate. Conclusions: The KAP level on chronic diseases was low in Uygur adults in Kashgar. It is necessary to continuously implement ethnic targeted health education and health promotion campaigns, especially in low education level, low income level, overweight and male groups.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the epidemiologic characteristics of diabetes mellitus (DM) in Uygur residents in Kashgar of Xinjiang. Methods: The survey was conducted among the Uygur residents aged ≥18 years selected through stratified cluster sampling in Kashgar by means of questionnaire survey, physical examination and basic laboratory test. The prevalence of different groups were calculated and risk factors of DM was analyzed by logistic vegression model. Results: A total of 4 608 adults were surveyed. The prevalence of DM was 11.31% (standardized prevalence: 10.59%) and the prevalence was 13.65% (standardized prevalence: 12.34%) in males and 10.04% (standardized prevalence: 9.83%) in females. The prevalence increased with age. The prevalence of DM was higher than the prevalence of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in people aged >60 years, especially in females. The rates of awareness, treatment and control of DM were 28.02%, 21.31% and 5.57%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that people aged 45-55, 55-65 and >65 years had higher risk of DM and the odds ratio were 2.08 (95%CI: 1.24-3.48), 2.73 (95%CI: 1.63-4.56) and 3.90 (95%CI: 2.24-6.78) for men and 2.63 (95% CI: 1.71-4.02), 3.14 (95%CI: 2.00-4.94) and 5.56 (95%CI: 3.47-8.92) for woman, respectively. Family history of DM (OR=2.88 for men, 95% CI: 1.45-5.72; OR=2.52 for women, 95% CI: 1.49-4.26) and BMI≥28.0 kg/m(2) (OR=1.77 for men, 95% CI: 1.19-2.64, OR=1.80 for women, 95% CI: 1.30-2.50) were also risk factors for DM. Conclusion: The prevalence of DM was high in Uygur residents in Kashgar, but the rate of awareness, treatment and control of DM were low. It is necessary to improve the detection rate of DM and conduct targeted prevention and control of DM.
