Abstract
Background Recurrent of local kyphosis after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) is rarely reported and discussed. Literatures reported that re-kyphosis is usually a consequence of refractures of augmented or adjacent vertebra. However, whether re-kyphosis should be considered as a complication of refractures and has an impact on clinical efficacy of PKP during follow-up time is unknown. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the related risk factors and clinical significance of the recurrent of local kyphosis in osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) patients without refractures. Patients and Methods A total of 143 patients who underwent single-level PKP were recruited and assigned into the re-kyphosis group and non-re-kyphosis group. Clinical and radiographic data were collected and compared between the two groups. Then, multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the related risk factors. Results During follow-up, 16 of the 143 patients presented postoperative re-kyphosis. The average local kyphosis angle increased from 11.81±8.60° postoperatively to 25.13±8.91° at the final follow-up which showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Both groups had significant improvements in postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores compared to their preoperative values (p<0.05). However, in the re-kyphosis group at final follow-up, the VAS and ODI scores showed worsening compared to the postoperative scores. Logistic regression analysis showed that disc-endplate complex injury (OR=17.46, p=0.003); local kyphosis angle correction (OR=1.84, p<0.001); and vertebral height restoration (OR=1.15, p=0.003) were risk factors for re-kyphosis. Conclusion Re-kyphosis is not rare in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fracture and tends to have an inferior prognosis following PKP surgery. Patients with disc-endplate complex injury and more correction of vertebral height and kyphosis angle are at a higher risk for re-kyphosis after PKP surgery than others.

Abstract
The recent discovery of superconductivity in doped infinite-layer nickelates has stimulated intensive interest, especially for similarities and differences compared to that in cuprate superconductors. In contrast to cuprates, although earlier magnetization measurement reveals a Curie-Weiss-like behavior in undoped infinite-layer nickelates, there is no magnetic ordering observed by elastic neutron scattering down to liquid helium temperature. Until now, the nature of the magnetic ground state in undoped infinite-layer nickelates was still elusive. Here, we perform a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiment through ^{139}La nuclei to study the intrinsic spin susceptibility of infinite-layer LaNiO_{2}. First, the signature for magnetic ordering or freezing is absent in the ^{139}La NMR spectrum down to 0.24 K, which unambiguously confirms a paramagnetic ground state in LaNiO_{2}. Second, a pseudogaplike behavior instead of Curie-Weiss-like behavior is observed in both the temperature-dependent Knight shift and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate (1/T_{1}), which is widely observed in both underdoped cuprates and iron-based superconductors. Furthermore, the scaling behavior between the Knight shift and 1/T_{1}T has also been discussed. Finally, the present results imply a considerable exchange interaction in infinite-layer nickelates, which sets a strong constraint for the proposed theoretical models.

Abstract
Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) causes devastating losses in aquaculture. Coumarin has an advantageous structure for the design of novel antiviral agents with high affinity and specificity. In this study, we evaluated a hydroxycoumarin medicine, i.e., 7-(6-benzimidazole) coumarin (C10), regarding its anti-SVCV effects in vitro and in vivo. Results showed that up to 12.5 mg/L C10 significantly inhibited SVCV replication in the epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) cell line, with a maximum inhibitory rate of >97%. Furthermore, C10 significantly reduced cell death and relieved cellular morphological damage in SVCV-infected cells. Decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) also suggested that C10 not only protected mitochondria, but also reduced apoptosis in SVCV-infected cells. For in vivo studies, intraperitoneal injection of C10 resulted in an anti-SVCV effect and substantially enhanced the survival rate of virus-infected zebrafish. Furthermore, C10 significantly enhanced antioxidant enzyme activities and decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) to maintain antioxidant-oxidant balance within the host, thereby contributing to inhibition of SVCV replication. The up-regulation of six interferon (IFN)-related genes also demonstrated that C10 indirectly activated IFNs for the clearance of SVCV in zebrafish. This was beneficial for the continuous maintenance of antiviral effects because of the low viral loads in fish. Thus, C10 is suggested as a therapeutic agent with great potential against SVCV infection in aquaculture.

Abstract
Phenylpropanoids, common natural compounds, possess many different biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiviral. Spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV) can cause a high mortality in common carp (Cyprinus carpio). However, there are currently no licenced drugs that effectively cure this disease. In this study, we designed and synthesized a phenylpropanoid derivative 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidine-2,5(1 H)-dione (E2), and explored the antiviral effect against SVCV in vitro and in vivo. Up to 25 mg/L of E2 significantly inhibited the expression levels of SVCV protein genes in the epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) cell line by a maximum inhibitory rate of >90%. As expected, E2 remarkably declined the apoptotic of SVCV-infected cells and suppressed potential enhancement of the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), these data implied that E2 could protect mitochondria from structural damage in response to SVCV. Meanwhile, E2 was added to EPC cells under four different conditions: time-of-addition, time-of-removal, pre-treatment of viruses and pre-treatment of cells indicated that E2 may block the post-entry transport process of the virus. Additionally, the up-regulation of six interferon (IFN)-related genes also demonstrated that E2 indirectly activated IFNs for the clearance of SVCV in common carp. Drug cure effect showed that treatment with E2 at 0.5 d post infection (dpi) is more effective than at 0, 1 or 2 dpi. Most importantly, intraperitoneal therapy of E2 markedly improved common carp survival rate and reduced virus copies in body. Therefore, the E2 has potential to be developed into a novel anti-SVCV agent.

Abstract
Superconductivity arises from two distinct quantum phenomena: electron pairing and long-range phase coherence. In conventional superconductors, the two quantum phenomena generally take place simultaneously, while in the underdoped high- T_{c} cuprate superconductors, the electron pairing occurs at higher temperature than the long-range phase coherence. Recently, whether electron pairing is also prior to long-range phase coherence in single-layer FeSe film on SrTiO_{3} substrate is under debate. Here, by measuring Knight shift and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate, we unambiguously reveal a pseudogap behavior below T_{p}∼60 K in two kinds of layered FeSe-based superconductors with quasi2D nature. In the pseudogap regime, a weak diamagnetic signal and a remarkable Nernst effect are also observed, which indicates that the observed pseudogap behavior is related to superconducting fluctuations. These works confirm that strong phase fluctuation is an important character in the 2D iron-based superconductors as widely observed in high-T_{c} cuprate superconductors.

Abstract
Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is one of the most serious pathogens in aquaculture, resulting in devastating damage in cyprinid. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel coumarin derivative (C3007) for evaluating its in vitro and in vivo anti-SVCV effects. Here, we determined that up to 25 mg/L C3007 significantly decreased SVCV protein gene expression levels in EPC cells by a maximum inhibitory rate of >95%. When C3007 was preincubated with SVCV, infectivity was significantly inhibited in vitro in a time-dependent manner, with complete inhibition at 25 mg/L. For in vivo studies, C3007 exhibited an anti-SVCV effect by substantially enhancing the survival rate of virus-infected fish via intraperitoneal injection. Although the horizontal transmission of SVCV was hindered by C3007 in a static cohabitation challenge model, it was not completely blocked, showing that the viral loads in recipient fish were obviously reduced. Thus, C3007 could potentially be used as a therapeutic agent with great potential in aquatic systems and may also be suitable for applications in pond aquaculture settings against viral transmission. Additionally, the C3007-preincubated virus induced an antiviral immune response with high levels of IFN expression, suggesting that C3007 pre-treatment could be used in vaccine development.

Abstract
Viral infection is often accompanied with alteration of intracellular redox state, especially an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant cellular defenses. The previous studies showed that an antioxidant cellular defense system, the transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), played an important role against spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV) infection in fish. To further reveal the mediated mechanism that Nrf2 active state was affected by protein kinase C (PKC), here we evaluated SVCV replication in host cells by treated with a strong activator of PKC phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and an inhibitor staurosporine. Our results showed that PMA significantly repressed SVCV replication and viral-induced apoptosis in Epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) cell, suggesting that PKC may exhibit an anti-SVCV effect. Likewise, PMA resulted in a higher phosphorylation levels of PKCε rather than PKCα/β to participate in the activation of Nrf2, mainly involved in the activation of Nrf2 phosphorylation of Ser40 to favor Nrf2 translocation to nucleus. Furthermore, the data revealed that PMA up-regulated an antiviral response heme oxygenase-1 (HO1) gene expression that was confirmed as the key player against SVCV infection by HO1 specific siRNA. Overall, this study provided a new therapeutic target for the treatment of SVCV infection, and modulating PKC activity could be used for the prevention and treatment of SVCV.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common solid tumors worldwide, often associated with inflammation. The microbes in the human intestine have a key role in inflammations and CRC. Chitotriose renders growth advantage to some bacteria, especially some pathogens, and thus has a role in inflammations. The enzyme chitotriosidase, encoded by the CHIT1 gene of the host, may degrade chitotriose with different efficiencies depending on the alleles. We sequenced the CHIT1 gene for 320 Chinese Han CRC patients and 404 normal controls, and focused on variations rs61745299 and rs35920428 within the CHIT1 gene for their possible roles in CRC. Statistical analyses were conducted using Chi-Square Tests as implemented in SPSS (version 19.0). Multiple sequence alignment was conducted using the Vector NTI, and protein expression levels were analyzed by western blotting. The two variations, rs61745299 and rs35920428 within the CDS region of CHIT1 gene, were associated with the risk of CRC (both with P values < 0.001). Western blotting analysis showed that the variations increased the expression levels of the CHIT1 and C-reaction protein genes in the cancer tissue. We conclude that the two variations of CHIT1, rs61745299 and rs35920428, increase expression of the gene and are associated with CRC in Chinese Han populations.

Abstract
FVIII is synthesized as a single chain precursor of approximately 280 kD with the domain structure of A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2 and it circulates as a series of metal ion-linked heterodimers that result from cleavages at B-A3 junction as well as additional cleavages within B domain. Factor VIII is converted to its active form, factor VIIIa, upon proteolytic cleavages by thrombin and is a heterotrimer composed of the A1, A2, and A3-C1-C2 subunits. A1 subunits of factor VIIIa terminates with 36 residue segment (Met337-Arg372) rich in acidic residues. This segment is removed after cleavages at Arg336 by activated protein C, which results in inactivation of the cofactor. In the present study, site-directed mutagenesis of FVIII at Arg336 to Gln336 was performed in order to produce an inactivation resistant mutant rFVIII (rFVIIIm) with an extended physiological stability. A recombinant mutant heavy chain of FVIII (rFVIII-Hm; Arg336 to Gln336) and wild-type light chain of FVIII (rFVIII-L) were expressed in Baculovirus-insect cell (Sf9) system, and a biologically active recombinant mutant FVIII (rFVIIIm) was reconstituted from rFVIII-Hm and rFVIII-L in the FVIII-depleted human plasma containing 40 mM CaCl2. The rFVIIIm exhibited cofactor activity of FVIIIa (2.85 x 10(-2) units/mg protein) that sustained the high level activity during in vitro incubation at 37 degrees C for 24 h, while the cofactor activity of normal plasma was declined steadily for the period. These results indicate that rFVIIIm (Arg336 to Gln336) expressed in Baculovirus-insect cell system is inactivation resistant in the plasma coagulation milieu and may be useful for the treatment of hemophilia A.

Abstract
The expression of major human apurinic/apyrimidinic DNA endonuclease (APEX) from its cDNA in E. coli (DH5 alpha) was attempted in order to obtain a biologically active recombinant APEX. E. coli cells were transformed by a prokaryotic translation vector (pGEX-4T-3) harboring APEX cDNA. GST-APEX fusion protein with a molecular weight of 6.3 KDa was induced by IPTG (1.0 mM) treatment. Western blot immunodetection identified the induced protein as the GST-APEX fusion protein. The survival rate of E. coli cells (DH5 alpha) transformed with pGEX-4T-3-APEX increased when the cells were treated with N-diethyl-N-nitrosamine (DENA) or 3'-methyl-4-monomethylaminoazobenzene (3'-MeMAB), indicating that APEX expression had a protective effect on the cytotoxicity of these carcinogens. The fusion protein extracted from E. coli cells and purified by GSH-agarose gel affinity chromatography exhibited APEX activity. Treatment of thrombin to the GST-APEX fusion protein and affinity purification followed by Sephacryl S-100 gel filtration resulted in APEX peptide with MW 36 KDa, which exhibited AP DNA repair activity (8,7000 EU/mg protein). N-ethylmaleimide (0.1 mM) or AMP (0.98 mM) inhibited APEX activity by 50% and kinetic analysis indicated that the recombinant APEX (rAPEX) had a Km value of 0.022 microM (AP sites for AP DNA) and the Ki value was 0.48 mM for AMP. These results indicated that E. coli cells expressing biologically active GST-APEX were resistant to the cell damage caused by chemical carcinogens and that rAPEX purified from E. coli cells transformed with APEX cDNA-inserted translation vector was similar to native APEX in some properties.
