Abstract
Liaoning cashmere goat (LCG) is one of the excellent cashmere goat breeds in China. Because of its larger size, better cashmere, and better cashmere production performance, people pay special attention to it. This article mainly studied the relationship between SNP loci of LIPE gene and ITGB4 gene and milk production, cashmere production and body measurement traits of LCGs. We further identified potential SNP loci by PCR-Seq polymorphism detection and gene sequence comparison of LIPE and ITGB4 genes. Further, we use SPSS and SHEsis software to analyze their relationship to production performance. The consequence indicated that CC genotype of LIPE gene T16409C locus was dominant genotype in milk production and cashmere production, while CT genotype of LIPE gene T16409C locus was dominant in body size. The CT genotype of C168T locus of ITGB4 gene is the dominant genotype of body type and cashmere production, while the dominant genotype of milk production is TT genotype. Through joint analysis, in haploid combinations, H1H2:CCCT is the dominant haplotype combination in cashmere fineness. H3H4:TTCT is a dominant haplotype combination of milk production traits and body measurement traits. These dominant genotypes can provide a reliable basis for the study of production performance of LCG.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between COL6A5 (collagen type VI alpha 5 chain) and LOC102181374 (alcohol dehydrogenase 1) genes and the production performance of Liaoning cashmere goats by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). We have searched for SNP loci of COL6A5 and LOC102181374 genes through sequence alignment and PCR experiments, and have used SPSS and SHEsis software to analyze production data. We obtained five SNP loci in total, including three SNP loci (G50985A, G51140T, G51175A) in COL6A5 gene and two SNP loci (A10067G, T10108C) in LOC102181374 gene. The genotypes G50985A (AG), G51140T (GT), G51175A (AA), A10067G (AA), and T10108C (CC) of these loci have certain advantages in improving the production performance of Liaoning cashmere goats. The haplotype combinations that can improve production performance in COL6A5 gene were H1H5:AGGGAG, H4H4:GGGGAA, and H4H4:GGGGAA. H3H3:GGCC and H2H4:AGTT were the dominant combinations in LOC102181374 gene. At G51175A and A10067G loci, we found that H1H2:AAAG and H1H3:AGAA have dominant effects. These results may provide some support for the molecular breeding of production traits in Liaoning cashmere goats.

Abstract
Reproductive traits have a high economic value in goat breeding, and increasing the number of lambs produced by ewes is of great importance to improve the production efficiency of goat farming. Lambing traits in goats are low heritability traits, but their genetic basis is ultimately determined by genes. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between INHA, RARG, and PGR gene polymorphisms and production performance, such as lambing, cashmere production, milk production, and body size in Liaoning cashmere goats. A total of six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) loci were identified in these three genes, G144A and T504C on the INHA gene, A56G, G144A, G490C on the RARG gene, and G109519T on the PGR gene. For lambing and cashmere production traits, the AA genotype of G144A on the INHA gene, TT on the T504C genotype, GG genotype of G144A on the INHA gene, A56G, G144A, and T504C on RARG and G109519T on PGR gene are dominant genotypes. AATT is a dominant haplotype combination. Allele G can be used as a molecular marker for lambing, cashmere, and milk production traits in Liaoning cashmere goats. Marker-assisted selection can be used for early selection to achieve improvement of genetic traits in Liaoning cashmere goats.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the polymorphism of bile acid-CoA: amino acid N-acyltransferase (BAAT) and collagen type I alpha 1 chain (COL1A1) genes and the production performance of Liaoning Cashmere goat (LCG). The potential single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of LCG were detected by sequence comparison of BAAT and COL1A1 genes and PCR-Seq polymorphism, and the effect of SNPs on production performance was analyzed by SPSS software. The results showed that three SNPs loci were detected in BAAT gene: G7900A, T7967C, C7998T, and one SNP locus T6716C was detected in COL1AL gene. At G7900A locus, the dominant genotype for cashmere performance was GG, and the dominant genotype for body measurement traits and milk production traits was AG. At T7967C locus, the dominant genotype for cashmere performance was TT, and the dominant genotype for body measurement traits and milk production traits was CC. At C7998T locus, TT was the dominant genotype for cashmere performance, body measurement traits, and milk production traits. At the T6716C locus, TT was the dominant genotype for cashmere performance, body measurement traits, and milk production traits. H1H1: AACC is the dominant haplotype combination. Therefore, this study will provide a reliable reference for future research on cashmere production performance, body measurement traits, and milk production traits of LCG.

Abstract
Liaoning cashmere goat (LCG) have tall bones, high cashmere production and outstanding meat production performance. In recent years, good breeding progress has not been made in terms of body size, meat yield, milk yield and other properties in terms of production. The study focused on the correlation between the SNPs of MSTN and IGFBP-3 genes with the body size performance, cashmere production and milk performance. The MSTN and IGFBP-3 gene sequence alignment and PCR-Seq polymorphism were used to detect the potential SNPs, and the correlation with production performance was analyzed by SPSS and SHEsis software. The results showed that the TT genotype at the T1662G locus of the MSTN gene is dominant and has significant advantages in body measurements such as sacrum height, chest width, and waist height. The C allele at the C4021T locus of IGFBP-3 gene shows an advantage in the body measurement performance. Among the haplotype combinations, H2H2:TGTC is preponderant combination for body size performance, H2H2:TGTC and H1H2:TGCC are preponderant combinations for cashmere production performance, H1H3:GGCC is preponderant combination for milk production performance. It may be a molecular marker for future selection and breeding.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) For locally advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC), capecitabine-based chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is commonly used but has limited benefits. Immunotherapy is potentially effective for BTC and may be synergized with CRT. Followed by gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) consolidation chemotherapy (CT), we evaluated the safety and efficacy of combined camrelizumab and capecitabine-based CRT for locally advanced BTC. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients had stage II-III (T4N0M0, T1-4N+M0) BTC (per the 7th [2010] edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system) were eligible for CRT (capecitabine plus [50-60 Gy] radiotherapy), to be followed by GP CT. Camrelizumab was given concurrently with CRT. Safety was defined as the incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs), while efficacy was defined as overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). RESULTS Ten patients completed the planned treatment. None experienced grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs during CRT. Grade ≥3 immune-related AEs occurred in 2 of 10 patients (20%) only during GP CT. The mean OS time was 18.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 12.9m-23.5m) while the median OS time was 14.1 months (95% CI 10.1m-18.1m). OS rates were 100%, 59%, 44% at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years, respectively. The ORR was 30% while the DCR was 90%. Two patients (20%) obtained OS over 2 years with partial response (25.9m, 29.1m). Median PFS time was 14.1 months (95% CI 9.3m-18.9m). CONCLUSION Camrelizumab in combination with concurrent CRT was well tolerated and did not impair delivery of CRT in patients with locally advanced BTC.

Abstract
This study determined the effects of rumen-protected methionine (RPM) supplementation on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen (N) utilisation and plasma amino acid profiles of Liaoning cashmere goats during cashmere fibre growth. Twenty-four yearling male cashmere goats (body weight: 35.41 ± 1.13 kg) were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments: a corn-soybean meal basal diet deficient in methionine (negative control, NC) and a basal diet supplemented with 1, 2 and 3 g/kg of RPM. The RPM supplementation quadratically increased the average daily gain (ADG) and decreased the feed to gain ratio (p = 0.001) without affecting the final body weight and dry matter intake. In particular, compared to NC, 2 g/kg RPM supplementation increased the ADG by 35 g/d (p < 0.001) and resulted in the lowest feed to gain ratio (p < 0.001). RPM increased the apparent total tract digestibility of N and decreased the faecal N levels, both in a linear fashion (p = 0.005). Urinary N levels did not have an effect, but the N retention levels increased linearly with PRM (p = 0.032). Moreover, the RPM decreased the plasma urea N levels (p < 0.001) and increased the plasma Met levels quadratically (p < 0.001). In conclusion, RPM supplementation in the diet of cashmere goats can enhance the utilisation of N and improve ADG during the cashmere fibre growing period, and 2 g/kg of RPM in the diet is suggested.

Abstract
This study followed up the immune memory after 3-dose revaccination among infants with non-and low-response following primary hepatitis B (HepB) vaccination. About 120 children without self-booster doses were finally included who had anti-HBs<10 mIU/ml (anti-HBs negative) at the time of follow-up, of whom 86 children completed blood sampling and anti-HBs testing. Before the challenge dose, all 86 children were negative for anti-HBs, and the GMC of anti-HBs was<10 mIU/ml. The seropositive conversion rate of anti-HBs was 100% and the GMC of anti-HBs was 886.11 (95%CI: 678.15-1 157.84) mIU/ml after the challenge dose. Compared with those with GMC<7 mIU/ml before the challenge dose, infants with GMC>7 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.82 (0.18-1.46) (P=0.012). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at primary vaccination, infants with GMC≥1 000 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.78 (0.18-1.38)(P=0.012). The results showed a stronger immune memory was found at 9 years after revaccination among infants with non-and low-response to HepB.

Abstract
Mature milk, as a nutrient-rich endogenous metabolite, has various beneficial effects on the human body. In order to investigate the specific nutrients provided by different dairy products to humans, we used UHPLC-Q-TOF MS to analyze the highly significantly differentially expressed metabolites in 13 species of mammalian mature milk, which were grouped into 17 major metabolite classes with 1992 metabolites based on chemical classification. KEGG shows that 5 pathways in which differentially significant metabolites are actively involved are ABC transporters, Purine metabolism, Pyrimidine metabolism, Phosphotransferase system, Galactose metabolism. The study found that pig milk and goat milk are closer to human milk and contain more nutrients that are beneficial to human health, followed by camel milk and cow milk. In the context of dairy production, the development of goat milk is more likely to meet human needs and health.

Abstract
Objective: Assess the 10-year Immune persistence and the predictors after primary vaccination hepatitis B vaccine (HepB) among normal and high-responder infants. Methods: A total of 1 838 Infants of 7-12 months old located in Jinan, Weifang, Yantai and Weihai of Shandong Province who were induced normal or high antibody response (anti-HBs titer ≥ 100 mIU/ml) after primary vaccination (three dose with 0-1-6 procedure) with 5 μg recombinant HepB among newborns were included in the study, in 2009. 3 ml of venous blood samples were collected at baseline survey (T0) and antibodies against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs), antibody against hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were detected using chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) method. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect information including the infant's age, sex, birth weight, premature birth, birth number, delivery location and mother's HBV infection status. In 2014 (followed up for 5 years) and in 2019 (followed up for 10 years) (T1), 2 ml of venous blood samples were collected. Anti HBS and anti HBC were detected by CMIA method. Those with anti HBS<10 mIU/ml were detected by CMIA method. Multivariate unconditional logistic and linear regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors of anti-HBs positive rate and geometric mean concentration (GMC) at T1. Results: After 10 years follow-up, 73.94% of the subjects (1 359/1 835) finished the follow-up. 51.15% of the subjects, a total of 625 were boys. The positive rate of anti-HBs was 100% at T0 and decreased to 53.44% (95%CI: 50.59%-56.26%) at T1. The average annual decline rate of anti-HBs positive rate from T0 to T1 was 6.07%. The GMC of anti-HBs decreased from 607.89 (95%CI: 579.01-642.62) mIU/ml to 16.44 (95%CI: 15.06-18.00) mIU/ml. The average annual decline rate of anti-HBs GMC in 10-year follow-up was 30.30%. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the positive rate of anti-HBs at T1 was lower in those who did not vaccinate the first dose in time (OR=0.25, 95%CI:0.07-0.71). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at T0, those with GMC ≥ 1 000 mIU/ml had a higher positive rate of anti-HBs at T1 (OR=2.29, 95%CI:1.76-2.97). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the GMC of anti-HBs at T1 was lower in those who did not vaccinate the first dose in time (β=-0.50, 95%CI:-1.24-0.24). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at T0, those with GMC ≥ 1 000 mIU/ml had a higher GMC of anti-HBs at T1 (β=0.81, 95%CI: 0.62-1.05). Conclusion: Anti-HBs GMC decreased in 10 years after primary vaccination of 5 μg recombinant hepatitis B vaccine among normal and high-responders. The anti-HBs persistence was mainly associated with whether the first dose was vaccinated in time and the level of anti-HBs at the end of primary vaccination.

Abstract
The results of this study showed that the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites of the PRL and PRLR genes have
a certain association with the milk production performance, body size and
cashmere performance of Liaoning cashmere goats (LCGs). Through our designed
experiment, the potential SNPs of LCG were
detected by sequence alignment, and two SNPs were found on two genes. The CC
genotype of the PRL gene is the dominant genotype among the three genotypes.
The GG genotype of the PRLR gene is the dominant genotype among the two
genotypes. At the same time, the two genotypes also have good performance in
cashmere production and body size. Through the screening of haplotype
combination, the milk fat rate > 7.6 %, the milk protein
rate > 5.6 %, the milk somatic cell number < 1500 × 103 mL-1, the cashmere fineness < 15.75 µm, the
chest girth > 105 cm, the chest depth > 33 cm, and the waist
height > 67.5 cm are considered as screening indexes for
comprehensive production performance of Liaoning cashmere goats. It is
concluded that the GCGC type is the dominant haplotype combination.
According to our research data, we found that the biological indicators of
Liaoning cashmere goat milk are higher than the national standards, so we
think it is very significant to study the milk production performance of our
experiment. Further research can be done on goat milk production and body
conformation traits around PRL gene and PRLR gene.

Abstract
Cashmere fineness is one of the important factors determining cashmere quality; however, our understanding of the regulation of cashmere fineness at the cellular level is limited. Here, we used single-cell RNA sequencing and computational models to identify 13 skin cell types in Liaoning cashmere goats. We also analyzed the molecular changes in the development process by cell trajectory analysis and revealed the maturation process in the gene expression profile in Liaoning cashmere goats. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis explored hub genes in cell clusters related to cashmere formation. Secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells (SDPCs) play an important role in the growth and density of cashmere. ACTA2, a marker gene of SDPCs, was selected for immunofluorescence (IF) and Western blot (WB) verification. Our results indicate that ACTA2 is mainly expressed in SDPCs, and WB results show different expression levels. COL1A1 is a highly expressed gene in SDPCs, which was verified by IF and WB. We then selected CXCL8 of SDPCs to verify and prove the differential expression in the coarse and fine types of Liaoning cashmere goats. Therefore, the CXCL8 gene may regulate cashmere fineness. These genes may be involved in regulating the fineness of cashmere in goat SDPCs; our research provides new insights into the mechanism of cashmere growth and fineness regulation by cells.

Abstract
Cashmere fineness is getting thicker, which is one of the key problems in cashmere breeding, however, there have been no systematic studies on the molecular regulation of cashmere fineness. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between KRT26 and TCHH gene polymorphism and production performance in Liaoning cashmere goats (LCG). The potential single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of LCG were detected by sequence alignment and PCR-Seq polymorphism of KRT26 and TCHH genes and analyzed the effect of SNPs on production performance by SPSS software. Two SNPs sites (A559T and A6839G) of two genes were detected. The AA genotype of KRT26 A559T locus was the dominant genotype. AG and GG at TCHH A6839G locus were the dominant genotypes. AAAA was the dominant haplotype combination. The results showed that KRT26 and TCHH genes were associated with cashmere fineness of LCG, and A559T (AA) and A6839G (GG) genotypes were the preferred marker genotypes for cashmere fineness, which provided more theoretical basis for further research on cashmere fineness.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the intensity and epidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation among inactive HBsAg carriers (IHC) of rural areas in Ji'nan. Methods: In 2018 and 2020, follow-up investigations were conducted on IHC identified in the population physical examination in Zhangqiu district of Ji'nan. The results of the two follow-up visits were compared to analyze the incidence and distribution characteristics of HBV reactivation in IHC at the community level. Results: A total of 424 IHC completed two follow-up visits, and 47 cases of HBV reactivation were found, the cumulative reactivation rate was 11.08%, and the incidence density was 5.46/100 person-years. Multivariate analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, drinking , family history of liver disease and chronic diseases were not associated with HBV reactivation (P>0.05), and baseline HBV DNA load was associated with reactivation (P<0.05), in the HBV DNA level ≥1 000 IU/ml group, the reactivation rate could reach 18.92%. After reactivation, the mean level of ALT increased from baseline and the abnormal rate increased, liver function tended to be abnormal in reactivated patients. 4 (8.51%) reactivators had hepatitis, and 1 (2.13%) had jaundice hepatitis. Conclusions: The incidence of HBV reactivation was higher among IHC in rural communities in Ji'nan. Most of the reactivators were asymptomatic or mildly reactivated. Follow-up of inactive HBsAg patients should be strengthened and changes in ALT and HBV DNA levels should be closely monitored.

Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most frequent internal modification of mRNA and lncRNA in eukaryotes. We used two high-throughput sequencing method, m6A-seq and RNA-seq to identify pivotal m6A-modified genes in cashmere fineness and fiber growth. 8062 m6A peaks were detected by m6A-seq, including 2157 upregulated and 6445 downregulated. Furthermore, by comparing m6A-modified genes of the male Liaoning Cashmere Goat (M-LCG) and female Liaoning Cashmere Goat (F-LCG) skin tissues, we get 862 differentially expressed m6A-modified genes. To identify differently expressed m6A genes associated with cashmere fineness, 11 genes were selected for validation using real time fluorescent quantitative PCR in M-LCG and F-LCG. This study provides an acadamic basis on the molecular regulation mechanism of m6A modification in cashmere growth process.

Abstract
Objective: Investigate and analyze the etiology and serological diagnosis capabilities of pertussis in medical institutions in Shandong Province in 2018. Methods: Using the census method, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 603 second and above level medical institutions in Shandong Province. The deadline for the survey was December 2018, and a total of 543 questionnaires have been recovered, and the validity rate of the questionnaires was 90%. Surveyed the pertussis etiology and serology test items (pertussis IgM and IgG, pertussis nucleic acid and pertussis bacterial culture) and the start time of each test item by questionnaire. The reported cases (confirmed cases and clinically diagnosed cases) between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2018 were derived from the Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System according to the onset date. We used indicators such as fixed-base development speed, chain development speed, and chain growth speed for analysis. The chi test was used to analyze the differences in the composition ratio of medical institutions with detection ability in different levels and regions, and analyze the changes in the number of reported cases before and after the development of pertussis etiology and serology testing. Results: A total of 543 medical institutions accounted for 90.0% (543/603) of all secondary and above level medical institutions in the province, 356 secondary medical institutions (65.6%), and 187 tertiary medical institutions (34.4%). There were 10 medical institutions that carry out pertussis IgM, IgG and nucleic acid testing, accounting for 1.8% (10/543) of the surveyed medical institutions respectively. 2 medical institutions that carried out bacterial culture, accounting for 0.4% of the surveyed medical institutions (2/543). 20 medical institutions have carried out the above tests (8 secondary medical institutions and 12 tertiary medical institutions), accounting for 3.7% (20/543). The proportion of tertiary medical institutions with pertussis IgM, IgG detection and nucleic acid detection capabilities [6.42% (12/187)] was significantly higher than that of secondary medical institutions [2.25% (8/356)] (χ²=6.01, P=0.014). From 2012 to 2018, the fixed base ratio development speed of reported cases was 3 834.69% in Shandong Province, among which medical institutions with etiology and serological testing capabilities reached 4 533.33%. In 13 medical institutions, the average annual number of reported cases after pertussis etiology and serological testing were higher than that of reported cases before testing. Conclusion: The ability of pertussis etiology and serology diagnosis of secondary and above medical institutions in Shandong Province needs to be improved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermal barrier dysfunction is the initial event in the development of atopic dermatitis (AD). Recent studies have identified a crucial role for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) in controlling the gene expression of filaggrin and other skin barrier proteins, suggesting an underlying association between AHR and AD pathogenesis. AIM To investigate the role of AHR gene polymorphisms in the susceptibility to AD and in AD-associated phenotypes. METHODS We enrolled 487 patients with AD, 210 patients with psoriasis and 226 healthy controls (HCs) from the Han Chinese population, and genotyped two AHR single-nucleotide polymorphisms (rs10249788 and rs2066853) by PCR and subsequent DNA sequencing. RESULTS The AHR rs10249788 and rs2066853 polymorphisms were found in both sets of patients (AD and psoriasis) and in HCs, but no significant differences were detected in genotype or allele frequencies between the three groups. However, patients with AD with the rs10249788 (CT/TT) or rs2066853 (AG + AA) genotype were more likely to have severe dry skin scores. In the stratification analysis, the AHR rs2066853 (AG + AA) and rs10249788 (CT + TT) genotypes could predict a higher risk of severe dry skin phenotypes in the male, early-onset and allergic rhinitis subgroups. Furthermore, the combined rs10249788 (CT + TT) and rs2066853 (AG + AA) genotypes led to a higher risk for severe dry skin in patients with AD. CONCLUSION AHR polymorphisms are not associated with the risk of AD; however, they may predict a dry skin phenotype in patients with AD.

Abstract
Liver biopsy is not routinely performed in treated chronic hepatitis B. Liver stiffness measurement has been validated for noninvasive liver fibrosis assessment in pretreatment chronic hepatitis B but has not been assessed for fibrosis monitoring during antiviral therapy. Liver stiffness was systemically monitored by Fibroscan® every 6 months in a cohort of patients with hepatitis B receiving antiviral therapy and compared with liver biopsies at baseline and week 104. A total of 534 hepatitis B e antigen-positive treatment-naive patients receiving telbivudine-based therapy with qualified liver stiffness measurement at baseline and week 104 were analyzed, 164 of which had adequate paired liver biopsies. Liver stiffness decreased rapidly (-2.2 kPa/24 weeks) in parallel with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) from 8.6 (2.6-49.5) kPa at baseline to 6.1 (2.2-37.4) kPa at week 24. Interestingly, liver stiffness decreased slowly (-0.3 kPa/24 weeks) but continually from week 24 to week 104 (6.1 vs 5.3 kPa, P < .001) while ALT levels remained stable within the normal range. More importantly, liver stiffness declined significantly irrespective of baseline ALT levels and liver necroinflammation grades. From baseline to week 104, the proportion of patients with no or mild fibrosis (Ishak, 0-2) increased from 74.4% (122/164) to 93.9% (154/164). Multivariate analysis revealed that percentage decline of 52-week liver stiffness from baseline was independently associated with 104-week liver fibrosis regression (odds ratio, 3.742; P = .016). Early decline of 52-week liver stiffness from baseline may reflect the remission of both liver inflammation and fibrosis and was predictive of 104-week fibrosis regression in treated patients with chronic hepatitis B.

Abstract
Chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB) causes up to 1.0 million deaths annually. Currently, more than 90% of CHB patients worldwide are receiving indefinite nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy. New strategies for optimizing hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss are required for NA-treated patients as the majority are unable to achieve HBsAg loss and may require lifelong therapy. In hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive patients, switching from NAs to finite peginterferon (PegIFN) therapy can double HBeAg seroconversion rates. One in five patients who switch to PegIFN can achieve HBsAg loss, whereas patients who continue NA therapy typically do not. In HBeAg-negative NA-treated patients, add-on PegIFN therapy achieves higher, albeit modest, HBsAg loss rates compared with continued NA monotherapy and offers the opportunity for NA-treated patients to achieve the inactive carrier state. In the absence of curative therapies, PegIFN represents a valuable, finite option for NA-treated patients who would otherwise require potentially lifelong therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE We compared dosimetry and clinical toxicity for 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-crt), intensity-modulated radiotherapy (imrt), and RapidArc (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA, U.S.A.) in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (lapcc). We hypothesized that the technique with better sparing of organs at risk (oars) and better target dose distributions could lead to decreased clinical toxicity. METHODS The study analyzed 280 patients with lapcc who had undergone radiotherapy. The dosimetry comparison was performed using 20 of those patients. Dose-volume histograms for the target volume and the oars were compared. The clinical toxicity comparison used the 280 patients who received radiation with 3D-crt, imrt, or RapidArc. RESULTS Compared with 3D-crt, RapidArc and imrt both achieved a better conformal index, homogeneity index, V95%, and V110%. Compared with 3D-crt or imrt, RapidArc reduced the V10, V20, and mean dose to duodenum, the V20 of the right kidney, and the liver mean dose. Compared with 3D-crt, RapidArc reduced the V35, and V45 of duodenum, the mean dose to small bowel, and the V15 of right kidney. The incidences of grades 3 and 4 diarrhea (p = 0.037) and anorexia (p = 0.042) were lower with RapidArc than with 3D-crt, and the incidences of grades 3 and 4 diarrhea (p = 0.027) were lower with RapidArc than with imrt. CONCLUSIONS Compared with 3D-crt or imrt, RapidArc showed better sparing of oars, especially duodenum, small bowel, and right kidney. Also, fewer acute grades 3 and 4 gastrointestinal toxicities were seen with RapidArc than with 3D-crt or imrt. A technique with better sparing of oars and better target dose distributions could result in decreased clinical toxicities during radiation treatment for lapcc.

Abstract
Histamine, mainly produced by mast cells, is an important inflammatory mediator in immune response. Recently Histamine H4 Receptor (H4R) was also identified in mast cells, from which pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines are released. However, the mechanism of how H4R mediates these cytokines and chemokines release in mast cells was still unclear. To further explore the role of H4R in the immune inflammatory response in mast cells, we tested the release of inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), chemokine interleukin-8 (IL-8) and the relevant signaling pathways activated by H4R on LAD2 cells (a human mast cell line). We found that the release of IL-8 and TNF-α were blocked by inhibitors of PI3K, ERK and Ca2+-Calcineurin-NFAT signaling pathways, while the release of these cytokines and chemokines were enhanced by the inhibitor of P38 signaling pathway. However, inhibitors of the JNK and NF-κB signaling pathways had little effect on the expression of the pro-inflammatory mediators. Moreover, activation of the H4R could induce phosphorylation of ERK, p38 and AKT in mast cells. In conclusion, we found that H4R mediates the release of inflammatory cytokine TNF-α and chemokine IL-8 in human mast cells via PI3K, Ca2+-Calcineurin-NFAT and MAPKs signaling pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The current study aimed to explore the effects of apolipoprotein e (ApoE) on intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)]i) and apoptosis of neurons after mechanical injury in vitro. METHODS A neuron mechanical injury model was established after primary neurons obtained from APOE knockout and wild-type (WT) mice, and four experimental groups were generated: Group-ApoE4, Group-ApoE3, Group-ApoE(-) and Group-WT. Recombinant ApoE4 and ApoE3 were added to Group-ApoE4 and Group-ApoE3 respectively, and Group-ApoE(-) and Group-WT were control groups. Intracellular calcium was labeled by fluo-3/AM and examined using laser scanning confocal microscope and flow cytometry, and the apoptosis of neurons was also evaluated. RESULTS The intracellular calcium levels and apoptosis rates of mice neurons were significantly higher in Group-ApoE4 than in Group-ApoE3 and Group-WT after mechanical injury. However, without mechanical injury on neurons, no significant differences in intracellular calcium levels and apoptosis rates were found among all four experimental groups. The effects of ApoE4 on intracellular calcium levels and apoptosis rates of injured neurons were partly decreased by EGTA treatment. CONCLUSION Compared with ApoE3-treatment and WT neurons, ApoE4 caused higher intracellular calcium levels and apoptosis rates of neurons after mechanical injury. This suggested APOE polymorphisms may affect neuron apoptosis after mechanical injury through different influences on intracellular calcium levels.

Abstract
Tumor vascular targeting is one of the most promising strategies in tumor therapy. Here we used E.coli to express a recombinant SP5.2/tTF fusion protein, which, as a tumor vascular targeting agent, consists of SP5.2 (a peptide selectively binding and targeting VEGFR-1 on tumor endothelial cells) and truncated tissue factor (tTF)and aimed to explore its anti-tumor activities.The SP5.2/tTF expression construct was synthesized by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and recombined into plasmid pET22b(+). The fusion gene was verified by restriction mapping and sequencing. SP5.2/tTF was expressed in E. coli and then purified on a nickel-affinity chromatography column. The purified product was detected by SDS-PAGE. The pro-coagulant activity and binding of SP5.2/tTF to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were monitored by FX activation analysis and fluorescent scanning confocal microscopy, respectively. The effect of SP5.2/tTF on tumor growth was analyzed in BALB/c mice bearing sarcoma 180 (S180) tumor. The tissue localization of SP5.2/tTF and its effect on tumor vessel thrombosis were observed by in vivo fluorescence imaging and histological studies, respectively. The fusion gene was successfully cloned into pET22b(+). SP5.2/tTF was abundantly expressed in bacterial cells and efficiently purified by nickel-affinity chromatography. Functional studies showed that the protein retained both the coagulation activity of tTF and the binding capacity of SP5.2 to HUVECs. In tumor xenograft studies, SP5.2/tTF selectively targeted the tumor, induced thrombosis, and led to retardation and even regression of tumor growth (growth inhibition ratio = 70%, P< 0.05). The recombinant fusion protein SP5.2/tTF inhibited tumor growth by selectively inducing thrombosis in tumor blood vessels.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this study, we developed and validated a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for Salmonella detection targeting bcfD gene, a conserved fimbrial operon gene existing in Salmonella. The Salmonella LAMP assay we developed successfully amplified 44 Salmonella strains (14 standard strains and 30 clinical isolates), but none of 9 non-Salmonella standard strains (Proteus mirabilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella flexneri, Shigella sonnei, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Campylobacter jejuni and Vibrio parahemolyticus). The detection limit was 5 CFU of Salmonella pure culture or 200 CFU of artificially spiked faeces per reaction system (equivalent to 5000 CFU g(-1) of faeces), and this method could directly detect Salmonella in chicken faeces free of pre-enrichment in a reaction time of 25 min. Our experiments show that the LAMP method we developed is a rapid, sensitive, specific and practical method for Salmonella detection. The Salmonella LAMP assay can potentially serve as new on-site diagnostics in the food and agricultural industries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemerin has been implicated to play opposing roles, either pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory, in various tissue inflammation processes primarily through the regulation of tissue recruitment of immune cells. However, the effect of chemerin in allergic asthma has not yet been explored. We sought to investigate the role of chemerin in the murine model of allergic asthma and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS We examined the effect of intranasal (i.n.) administration of chemerin during antigen challenge in murine models of asthma. Moreover, we examined whether administration of CCL2 or bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) transfer reversed the effects of chemerin on ovalbumin-induced asthma. We finally examined the effect of chemerin on CCL2 expression in activated lung epithelial cells in vitro. RESULTS The administration of chemerin attenuated allergic airway inflammation and airway hyperreactivity during antigen challenge. Chemerin treatment caused significant decreases in BALF CD4(+) T-cell accumulation and mRNA expression of Th2-attracting chemokines, CCL17 and CCL22, which was accompanied by significantly decreased BALF CD11c(+) CD11b(+) inflammatory DC accumulation and CCL2 production. Furthermore, airway administration of exogenous CCL2 or adoptive transfer of CD11c(+) CD11b(+) BMDCs abrogated the suppressive effects of chemerin on allergic asthma. Finally, in vitro study showed that chemerin inhibited CCL2 secretion by low-dose LPS-stimulated lung epithelial cells, which led to decreased chemotaxis of BMDCs. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates that chemerin plays a protective role in allergic asthma by suppressing airway recruitment of inflammatory CD11c(+) CD11b(+) DCs through the inhibition of CCL2 secretion by active lung epithelial cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Bmi1, a polycomb-group protein, maintains stem cell self-renewal and is frequently overexpressed in cancers. Upregulation of Bmi1 by Twist1 can promote tumor-initiating capability and Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by repressing E-cadherin expression. It has been demonstrated that Post-EMT breast cancer cells express cancer stem cell (CSC) markers including Bmi1, but display decreased ERα expression. ERα is a ligand-activated nuclear hormone receptor that regulates the transcription of E2-responsive genes in diverse target cells. It's reported that ligand-activated ERα could repress slug transcription by binding to the half-site ERE element in its promoter, and then regulate E-cadherin and EMT. Herein, we hypothesized that ERα signaling might regulate E-cadherin and EMT through Bmi1.
Methods: First, we determined Bmi1 and ERα expression at both mRNA and protein levels by quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot in various breast cancer cell lines. Further, we quantitatively analyzed mRNA and protein levels of Bmi1 as well as its down-stream genes including E-cadherin after silencing ERα in T47D cells with siRNA, or after overexpressing ERα in BT549 cells. The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) were also performed to investigate whether ERα binds directly to Bmi1 promoter region. Luciferase assay with Bmi1 reporter was performed to ERα mediated regulation. To identify whether ERα regulates EMT, transwell and matrigel invasion, flow cytometry, mammosphere assay and wound healing assay were performed to invasion, metastases and characterize stem-cell properties of EMT. Finally, we analyzed the expression of ERα, Bmi1 and E-cadherin in human breast cancer specimens with immunohistochemistry.
Results: The study showed that Bmi1 inversely correlated with ERα expression in different subtypes of breast cancer cells. We further confirmed that Bmi1 was upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels and E-cadherin was downregulated with siRNA against ERα in T47D cells, and Bmi1 was downregulated and E-cadherin was upregulated when overexpressing ERα in BT549 cells with qRT-PCR and western blot analyses. The present study also demonstrated that ERα could directly binds to the half-ERE region of the Bmi1 gene and repressing Bmi1 expression transcriptionally with CHIP/EMSA and reporter analyses. Overexpression of ERα in BT549 cell significantly decreased levels of migration of transwell and wounding healing, invasiveness, CD44high/CD24low population, and the capabilities of mammosphere formation.
Conclusions: Our results demonstrated that ERα can suppress EMT through transcriptionally down-regulating Bmi-1 and its down-stream genes in human breast cancer cells. The inverse relationship between ERα and Bmi1 expression further supports the epithelial phenotype of ERα positive tumors or mesenchymal phenotype of ERα negative tumors. Our findings provide a novel mechanistic insight into how ERα regulates EMT, and is of valuable for developing biomarkers to predict prognosis and targeted therapies in breast cancers in the future.

Abstract
The molecular dynamics of three dipole functionalized hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes have been studied using site-specific NMR techniques and dielectric spectroscopy as a function of temperature and pressure. These probes (i) suggest that the thermodynamic state completely controls the dynamic response, (ii) clarify the origin of two dynamic processes associated with the presence of two glass temperatures, and (iii) provide the first phase diagram for substances of this kind.

Abstract
Fibrosis mediated by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a common cause of peritoneal dialysis (PD) failure. In a model of peritoneal fibrosis, we tested the effect of Smad7, an inhibitor of TGF-beta signaling, using an ultrasound-microbubble-mediated delivery system. Rats were given daily PD for 4 weeks and received Smad7 or control plasmid transfer. The ultrasound technique enhanced Smad7 expression in a dose-dependent manner in more than 80% of the peritoneal cells after 3 days. The expression decreased by 14 days, but this was corrected by a second gene transfer. The overexpression of Smad7 substantially inhibited Smad2/3 activation, TGF-beta, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, extracellular matrix, and myofibroblast mRNA, and protein expression in the peritoneal cells. The decreased peritoneal injury included the rise of mass transfer of glucose, a reduction of the ultrafiltration rate, and fibrotic thickening. Our studies suggest that ultrasound-mediated Smad7 gene delivery may be useful in the prevention or treatment of dialysis-induced peritoneal fibrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE As an initial approach to understanding the basis of the systemic sclerosis (SSc; scleroderma) phenotype, we sought to identify genes in the transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) signaling pathway that are up-regulated in lesional SSc fibroblasts relative to their normal counterparts. METHODS We used gene chip, differential display, fluorescence-activated cell sorter, and overexpression analyses to assess the potential role of TGF beta signaling components in fibrosis. Fibroblasts were obtained by punch biopsy from patients with diffuse cutaneous SSc of 2-14 months' duration (mean 8 months) and from age- and sex-matched healthy control subjects. RESULTS Unexpectedly, we found that fibroblasts from SSc patients showed elevated expression of the endothelial cell-enriched TGF beta receptor endoglin. Endoglin is a member of the nonsignaling high-affinity TGF beta receptor type III family. The expression of endoglin increased with progression of disease. Transfection of endoglin in fibroblasts suppressed the TGF beta-mediated induction of connective tissue growth factor promoter activity. CONCLUSION SSc is characterized by overproduction of matrix; that is, genes that are targets of TGF beta signaling in normal fibroblasts. Our findings suggest that lesional SSc fibroblasts may overexpress endoglin as a negative feedback mechanism in an attempt to block further induction of profibrotic genes by TGF beta.
