ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the value of albumin-related ratios [total bilirubin-to-albumin ratio (TAR), creatinine-to-albumin ratio (CAR), prothrombin time-international normalized ratio-to-albumin ratio (IAR), neutrophil count-to-albumin ratio (NAR), and red blood cell distribution width-to-albumin ratio (RAR)] in predicting the short-term prognosis of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for 354 patients with HBV-ACLF who were admitted to Department of Infectious Diseases, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, from June 2017 to February 2022, and according to their prognosis at 3 months of follow-up, they were divided into survival group (n=272) and death group (n=82). Related indices were recorded for all patients, including age, sex, complications, and the results of routine blood test, liver function, and coagulation for the first time after admission, and albumin-related ratios and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score were calculated. The t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distribution continuous data between groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Spearman correlation test was used to investigate the correlation between albumin-related ratios and MELD score. The Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association of MELD score, TAR, CAR, IAR, NAR, and RAR with poor prognosis. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was used to as sess the accuracy of albumin-related ratios and MELD score in predicting the short-term prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients, and the De-Long test was used for the comparison of AUC. ResultsCompared with the death group, the survival group had significantly lower MELD score (Z=-8.071, P<0.001), TAR (Z=-6.695, P<0.001), CAR (Z=-4.463, P<0.001), IAR (Z=-7.912, P<0.001), NAR (Z=-4.061, P<0.001), and RAR (Z=-4.788, P<0.001). MELD score was positively correlated with CAR (r=0.616, P<0.001), IAR (r=0.733, P<0.001), TAR (r=0.657, P<0.001), NAR (r=0.392, P<0.001), and RAR (r=0.380, P<0.001). The multivariate regression analysis of MELD score and albumin-related ratios showed that high TAR (odds ratio [OR]=1.014, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.008 — 1.020, P<0.001) and high IAR (OR=22.052, 95%CI: 6.937 — 70.103, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for death. The ROC curves were plotted for albumin-related ratios and MELD score to evaluate their discriminatory ability for mortality, and the results showed that MELD score, TAR, CAR, IAR, NAR, and RAR had an AUC of 0.794, 0.744, 0.663, 0.788, 0.648, and 0.674, respectively, among which MELD score had the highest sensitivity of 86.59% and CAR had the highest specificity of 77.57%. TAR combined with IAR had an AUC of 0.809, with a sensitivity of 76.8% and a specificity of 71.3%. Subgroup analysis of HBV-ACLF showed that TAR combined with IAR had the highest AUC values of 0.884 and 0.733, respectively, in patients with type A or type C HBV-ACLF. ConclusionTAR and IAR can be used as simple and effective prognostic tools to predict the 90-day mortality of HBV-ACLF patients.

Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) is an oral anaerobic bacterium that has recently been found to colonize on the surface of colorectal cancer cells in humans, and its degree of enrichment is highly negatively correlated with the prognosis of tumor treatment. Numerous studies have shown that Fn is involved in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer (CRC), and Fn interacts with multiple components in the tumor microenvironment to increase tumor resistance. In recent years, researchers have begun using nanomedicine to inhibit Fn's proliferation at the tumor site or directly target Fn to treat CRC. This review summarizes the mechanism of Fn in promoting CRC and the latest research progress on Fn-related CRC therapy using different nanomaterials. Finally, the applications perspective of nanomaterials in Fn-promoted CRC therapy was prospected.

[Abstract] Objective To establish an inflammation model by stimulating BV2 microglia by lipopolysaccharide, and to explore the regulation effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on inflammation by activating peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ(PPARγ) receptor protein. Methods BV2 microglia were randomly divided into control group, model group, ginsenoside Rg1 group, rosiglitazone group and GW9662 group. The control group did not do any treatment, the model group was treated with 1 mg/ L lipopolysaccharide, and the other groups were treated with lipopolysaccharide added with 0. 4 mmol/ L ginsenoside Rg1, 10 μmol/ L rosiglitazone or 10 μmol/ L respectively. GW9662. The proliferation of BV2 microglia in each group was detected by CCK-8 method; PPAR-γ, phospho-NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65), induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) and human arginase 1(ARG-1) proteins. ELISA was used to detect the inflammatory factors interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin-6(IL-6), interleukin-8(IL-8) and the content of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Results Compared with the control group, the cell proliferation rate in the model group was significantly increased, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α increased significantly. The result of immunofluorescence and Western blotting showed that iNOS and p-NF-κB p65 increased significantly, and the positive expressions of PPARγ and ARG-1 decreased significantly(both P<0. 01). The expression level of TNF-α decreased, the positive expressions of iNOS and p-NF-κB p65 decreased significantly, and the positive expressions of PPARγ and ARG-1 increased significantly(all P<0. 01). Conclusion Ginsenoside Rg1 inhibits the inflammatory response of BV2 microglia after lipopolysaccharide stimulation, and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of PPARγ/ NF-κB pathway to promote the M2-type polarization of microglia.

Objective: To explore the clinical and chest computed tomography (CT) features and the outcome of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP). Methods: Clinical and chest CT data of 38 CIP patients with malignant tumors from the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between August 2017 and April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed, and the outcomes of pneumonitis were followed up. Results: The median time from the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) to the onset of CIP was 72.5 days in 38 patients with CIP, and 22 patients developed CIP within 3 months after the administration of ICIs. The median occurrence time of CIP in 24 lung cancer patients was 54.5 days, earlier than 119.0 days of non-lung cancer patients (P=0.138), with no significant statistical difference. 34 patients (89.5%) were accompanied by symptoms when CIP occurred. The common clinical symptoms were cough (29 cases) and dyspnea (27 cases). The distribution of CIP on chest CT was asymmetric in 31 cases and symmetrical in 7 cases. Among the 24 lung cancer patients, inflammation was mainly distributed ipsilateral to the primary lung cancer site in 16 cases and diffusely distributed throughout the lung in 8 cases. Ground glass opacities (37 cases) and consolidation (30 cases) were the common imaging manifestations, and organizing pneumonia (OP) pattern (15 cases) was the most common pattern. In 30 CIP patients who were followed up for longer than one month, 17 cases had complete absorption (complete absorption group), and 13 cases had partial absorption or kept stable (incomplete absorption group). The median occurrence time of CIP in the complete absorption group was 55 days, shorter than 128 days of the incomplete absorption group (P=0.022). Compared with the incomplete absorption group, there were less consolidation(P=0.010) and CIP were all classified as hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) pattern (P=0.004) in the complete absorption group. Conclusions: CIP often occurs within 3 months after ICIs treatment, and the clinical and CT findings are lack of specificity. Radiologic features may have a profound value in predicting the outcome of CIP.

Aim To explore the effect of LINC00707 on the proliferation, migration and inflammatory factors of human vascular smooth muscle cells induced by oixidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and its possible mechanism. Methods ox-LDL was used to induce human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs) to establish an atherosclerotic cell model. si-NC, siLINC00707, miR-NC, miR-30c-5p mimic were trans-fected into HVSMCs, and then 100 mg • L~ ox-LDL was added to the cells. si-LINC00707 and anti-miRNC, or si-LINC00707 and miR-30c-5p Inhibitor were co-transfected into HVSMCs and then treated with 100 mg • L ox-LDL. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of LINC00707 and miR-30c-5p. CCK-8 and Transwell test were used to detect cell proliferation and migration. ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-6, TNF-a, and IL-10. The dual-luciferase reporter experiment was used to detect the targeting relationship between LINC00707 and miR-30c-5p. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of E-cadherin and N-cadherin. Results The expression of LINC00707 in HVSMCs induced by ox-LDL increased (P <0. 05), while the expression of miR-30c-5p decreased (P < 0. 05). After transfection with siLINC00707 or miR-30c-5p mimic, cell viability, the protein level of N-cadherin, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-a decreased (P < 0. 05), and the number of im grating cells decreased (P<0. 05), while the protein level of E-coadherin and the level of IL-10 increased (P <0. 05). LINC00707 could target miR-30c-5p. After co-transfection with si-LINC00707 and miR-30c-5p inhibitor, cell survival rate, the protein level of N-cadherin, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α increased (P < 0.05), and the number of migrating cells increased (P <0. 05), while the protein level of E-cadherin and the level of IL-10 decreased (P < 0. 05). Conclusion Down-regulation of the expression of LINC00707 could inhibit the proliferation, migration and inflammation of human vascular smooth muscle cells induced by ox-LDL by promoting the expression of miR-30c-5p.

Biochemistry is a very important basic course for biology and medical disciplines, and it is one of the most rapidly developing and dynamic disciplines since the 21st century. Since theoretical teaching of biochemistry is very abstract, experiment teaching is an important part of understanding relevant theories and mastering practical skills. In the process of experiment teaching, it is always a key concern for teachers to keep abreast of new teaching concepts, new teaching methods, new teaching hotspots, and keep up with teaching trends. To this end, in this paper, the annual number of published papers, periodical distribution, research keywords, current status of research, hotspots and development trends of biochemical experiment teaching and research in China from 2011. 1. 1 to 2020. 12. 31 were visualized and analyzed by using CiteSpace with China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) as the data source. It was found that the number of articles published in each year remained basically stable, and the high frequency words were " biochemistry", " experimental teaching", " teaching reform", " biochemistry experiment", " reform", " teaching method", " innovation ability" and " teaching mode". The words with higher intensity are " flipped classroom" and " microlearning". Through timeline analysis, we found that the identities of " teaching" and " learning" are being exchanged, and improving students' independent learning ability has become the mainstream. The teaching mode combining advanced technology such as " virtual simulation" and " online teaching" has become the development trend and frontier of biochemistry experiment teaching. This paper aims to provide reference for the sustainable development of biochemistry experiment teaching in China through the above analysis.

Objective: To analyze the migration of the HIV/AIDS cases and related factors in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture (Liangshan). Methods: According to HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information Management System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention, a total of 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases who had follow-up records in Liangshan in 2020 were included in the survey. The migration of the HIV/AIDS cases was described and the related factors were analyzed using multiple logistic regression models, and the migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases were mapped. Results: Among the 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases, 20.89% (6 010/28 772) had migration in 2020. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that among the HIV/AIDS cases, the migration related factors included being aged 15-24 years (compared with being aged 0-14 years, OR=2.74, 95%CI:2.04-3.69) and ethnic group (compared with Han ethnic group, OR=2.44, 95%CI:2.19-2.72), having education level of junior high school (compared with having education level of primary school or below, OR=1.25, 95%CI:1.14-1.38), being unmarried (compared with being married, OR=1.29, 95%CI:1.20-1.39), being engaged in business services (compared with being engaged in farming, OR=1.96, 95%CI:1.31-2.92), receiving antiviral treatment <1 year (compared with receiving antiviral treatment >3 years, OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.26-1.61), having recent CD4+T lymphocytes (CD4) counts >500 cells/μl (compared with having recent CD4 counts <200 cells/μl, OR=1.15, 95%CI:1.03-1.29). The geographical distribution maps showed that among all cities in Sichuan, Xichang (13.26%, 797/6 010) and Chengdu (10.12%,608/6 010) were the main migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases, and the provinces outside Sichuan where the HIV/AIDS cases would like to migrate to were mainly Guangdong (18.19%, 1 093/6 010) and Zhejiang provinces (7.67%, 461/6 010) in 2020. The HIV/AIDS cases who migrated where Liangshan, within Sichuan province, and to other provinces accounted for 27.67% (1 663/6 010), 15.34% (922/6 010) and 56.99% (3 425/6 010), respectively. Conclusions: More attention should be paid to the mobility characteristics and the classification management of HIV/AIDS cases according to their characteristics in Liangshan. Timely access to information on changes in the place of work and residence of HIV/AIDS cases should be warranted when they have migration. Good referrals and management for mobility of HIV/AIDS cases in different places should be made to reduce loss to follow-up and improving interventions.

Aim To explore the roles of miRNA-132 and its related proteins(Mecp2, CREB)in the mechanism of methamphetamine(MA)-induced neurotoxicity and dependence.Methods The rats were intraperitioneally injected(ip)with MA(10 mg·kg-1·d-1)to establish methamphetamine dependence model with different dependent time courses of 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks respectively.The miRNA-132 and Mecp2 mRNA were detected by RT-qPCR, and the Mecp2, p-Mecp2, CREB and p-CREB proteins were detected by Western blot in the tissues of frontal cortex and hippocampus.Results In the frontal cortex, the miRNA-132 and Mecp2 mRNA were up-regulated in MA-dependent groups(P<0.05 and P<0.01), while the Mecp2 protein were down-regulated(P<0.01).MA could promote the phosphorylation of Mecp2 protein in the frontal cortex(P<0.01).In hippocampus, the miRNA-132 was down-regulated in the MA-dependent groups, but Mecp2 mRNA was up-regulated(P<0.05).Mecp2 protein increased in MA-dependent 1 week group(P<0.05), and then recovered with the prolonged time of MA dependence, then decreased in MA-dependent 4 weeks groups(P<0.05)in hippocampus.The phosphorylation level of Mecp2 was significantly decreased in the 1 week group(P<0.01), and then increased in the 2 weeks group(P<0.01)in hippocampus.Conclusions MA could induce an abnormal expression of miRNA-132 in the frontal cortex and hippocampus, and miRNA-132 might inhibit the translation of Mecp2 mRNA and induce the decrease expression of Mecp2 protein in the frontal cortex.But in hippocampus, miRNA-132 does not show the correlation with the Mecp2 expression trend of the frontal cortex.And miRNA-132 regulation does not depend on the expression of Mecp2 in hippocampus.

Objective To investigate the effects of CTNND2 knockout on cerebellar neuronal development and motor function in mice, as well as its possible mechanisms. Methods The mice were divided into two groups (n = 10 in each group), all of them were 7 weeks old : wild-type (WT) C57BL/6J mice were treated as control group, and homozygous of CTNND2 knockout (CTNND2 7) mice were treated as experimental group, the genotype of CTNND2 7 mice were detected with PCR. The motor function of two groups were detected by beam walking test, hanging wire test and gait analysis test. The changes of cerebellar Purkinje cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining and Golgi staining. Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of synapse-associated proteins phosphorylated synapsin 1 (p-Synl), synapsin 1 (Synl), ELKS and postsynaptic density protein 95(PSD95), as well as phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt), protein kinase B (Akt), phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Results Compared with the WT mice, except the increase in time to traverse the beam, there was a decrease in the proportion of pass on the beam, or latency to fall from the hanging wire, or score of hanging wire, or fore-stride length and hind-stride length of CTNND2 7 mice. There was also a decrease in numbers of Purkinje cells and its dendritic arborization in cerebellum of CTNND2 7 mice. The ratio of p-Synl/ Synl, p-Akt/Akt and p-mTOR/mTOR, as well as the expression levels of ELKS, PSD95 and PI3K were lower than those of WT mice. Conclusion CTNND2 knockout can affect the number and dendritic architecture of Purkinje cells, as well as synthesis of synapse-associated proteins in cerebellum by down-regulating PI3K/Akt/mT0R signaling pathway, resulting in cerebellar developmental disorder, thereby affecting motor function of mice.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of nuclear transcription factor-κB(NF-κB)/amide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1(NOX1) signaling pathway in tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) induced apoptosis of A549 cells. METHODS: i) A549 cells were stimulated with TNF-α at the concentrations of 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, and 1.00 nmol/L. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability to screen the optimal stimulating concentration of TNF-α. ii) A549 cells at logarithmic growth stage were randomly divided into four groups, the control group, the TNF-α group, the BAY11-7082(NF-κB inhibitor) group and the TNF-α+BAY11-7082 group. The cells in the control group were not treated. The TNF-α and BAY11-7082 groups were stimulated with 0.50 nmol/L TNF-α and 5 μmol/L BAY11-7082, respectively. The TNF-α+BAY11-7082 group was stimulated by both TNF-α and BAY11-7082. After 24 hours of culture, the cell survival rate was detected by CCK-8 assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptotic rate, and Western blotting was used to detect the relative expression of NF-κB(p65) and NOX1 proteins. RESULTS: i) When A549 cells were stimulated with TNF-α at the concentration of 0.50 nmol/L, the cell proliferative activity was reduced and the cell apoptosis was promoted. This concentration was selected as the stimulation dose of TNF-α in subsequent experiments. ii) The survival rate of A549 cells in the TNF-α group decreased(P<0.05), the apoptotic rate and the protein expressions of NF-κB(p65) and NOX1 increased in TNF-α group(all P<0.05) compared with the control group. In BAY11-7082 group, the survival rate and the relative expression of NF-κB(p65) and NOX1 of A549 cells were decreased(all P<0.05), and the apoptotic rate of A549 cells was increased(P<0.05) compared with the control group. A549 cells in TNF-α+BAY11-7082 group changed from a long spindle shape to an irregular one. The cell survival rate increased(P<0.05), the apoptotic rate and the relative expression of NF-κB(p65) and NOX1 decreased(all P<0.05) compared with the TNF-α group. CONCLUSION: NF-κB/NOX1 signaling pathway is involved in A549 cells apoptosis induced by TNF-α.

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Chinese herbal external umbilicus treatment with Modified Dinggui Powder (, MDGP) in patients with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (CNP).@*METHODS@#A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted among 72 patients with CNP. Participants were randomly allocated to a treatment group and a placebo group using computer software in a 1:1 ratio, and received either MDGP external umbilicus treatment (MDGP group, 36 cases) or placebo control groupl (36 cases) at acupoints Shenque (CV 8), twice a week for 4 weeks. In addtion, patients all received herbal medicine treatment twice a day for 4 weeks. The primary outcomes was the US National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Scores Index (NIH-CPSI) with a questionnaire at weeks 2 and 4. The secondary outcomes including prostatic fluid examination (white blood cells and lecithin bodies), the clinical efficacy evaluation, and the adverse events were also assessed during the entire trial.@*RESULTS@#The NIH-CPSI scores regarding pain or discomfort scores showed greater improvement in the MDGP group than placebo control group at weeks 2 (P0.001) and week 4 (P0.004), respectively. NIH-CPSI scores of symptom severity, total scores, the amount of leukocytes number in the prostatic fifluid in the MDGP group were significantly improved (P0.05). The clinical effective rate was 73.53% (25/34) in the MDGP group, which was significally higher than the placebo control group with 48.39% (25/31, P<0.05). Patients were blinded successfully, and no serious adverse effects were found during the trial.@*CONCLUSION@#A 4-week course of umbilicus treatment with modified Dinggui Powder seems to relieve pain and symptom severity effectively and increase the amount of leukocytes number in patients with CNP (Trial registration No. ChiCTR1800014687).
