Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion leads to white matter injury (WMI), which subsequently causes neurodegeneration and even cognitive impairment. However, due to the lack of treatment specifically for WMI, novel recognized and effective therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. In this study, we found that honokiol and magnolol, two compounds derived from Magnolia officinalis, significantly facilitated the differentiation of primary oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) into mature oligodendrocytes, with a more prominent effect of the former compound. Moreover, our results demonstrated that honokiol treatment improved myelin injury, induced mature oligodendrocyte protein expression, attenuated cognitive decline, promoted oligodendrocyte regeneration, and inhibited astrocytic activation in the bilateral carotid artery stenosis model. Mechanistically, honokiol increased the phosphorylation of serine/threonine kinase (Akt) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) by activating cannabinoid receptor 1 during OPC differentiation. Collectively, our study indicates that honokiol might serve as a potential treatment for WMI in chronic cerebral ischemia.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Xiangshao granules on behavior and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and oligodendrocytes (OLs) in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of post-stroke depression (PSD) mice.Methods:Eighty C57BL/6 mice were divided into sham-operated group, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) group, PSD+PBS group, and PSD+Xiangshao group ( n=20). PSD models were constructed using mild chronic unforeseeable stress (CUMS) and solitary feeding after MCAO. MCAO models were evaluated by laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI), modified neurological severity score (mNSS) and TTC staining. PSD models were evaluated by body mass, sugar and water preference test and tail suspension test. After PSD modeling, mice in the sham-operated group, MCAO group, and PSD+PBS group were given 0.2 mL PBS, while mice in the PSD+Xiangshao group was given Xiangshao granules at dosage of 60 mg/kg (dissolved in 0.2 mL PBS); all were given via intragastric administration once a d for 28 d. Number of OPCs and OLs in mPFC was detected by immunofluorescence. Expressions of myelin basic protein (MBP) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/serine/threonine kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) pathway proteins in mPFC were detected by Western blotting. Results:(1) Model verification results: LSCI showed obvious changes of cerebral blood flow in the middle cerebral artery supply area before, during and after MCAO; TTC staining showed typical red non-infarct area and white infarct area in MCAO group, PSD+PBS group and PSD+ Xiangshao group; mNSS scores in MCAO group, PSD+PBS group and PSD+ Xiangshao group were all >4, without significant differences ( P>0.05); the MCAO model was successfully constructed. After PSD and before treatment, the PSD+PBS group and PSD+Xiangshao group had significantly decreased body weight and sugar-water preference, and statistically prolonged tail suspension immobilization time compared with sham-operated group and MCAO group ( P<0.05); the PSD model was successfully constructed. (2) Results of mouse behavior experiment after treatment: significant differences in body weight, sugar-water preference and tail suspension time were noted in mice of the 4 groups 28 d after treatment ( P<0.05); PSD+Xiangshao group had significantly increased body weight and sugar-water preference and decreased tail suspension immobilization time compared with PSD+PBS group ( P<0.05). (3) Number of OPCs (Olig2 +PDGFRa +), proliferative OPCs (Ki-67 +PDGFRa +, EdU +PDGFRa +) and OLs (Olig2 +CC1 +), and relative MBP, p-PI3K, p-AKT and p-mTOR protein expressions in mPFC of the 4 groups were significantly different ( P<0.05); compared with those in PSD+PBS group, the above cell number and relative protein expressions in PSD+Xiangshao group were significantly increased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Xiangshao granules can promote the OPCs proliferation and OLs maturation by activating PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in mPFC, thus playing a role in PSD.

BACKGROUND@#As the efficacy of programmed cell death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors combined with chemotherapy in curing breast cancer is still controversial, this meta-analysis compares the efficacy and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy and chemotherapy alone in the treatment of breast cancer, which provides guidance for the clinical treatment.@*METHODS@#Relevant studies published as of April 2022 in the various databases including EMBASE, PubMed, and Cochrane Library were selected. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which control patients underwent chemotherapy alone and experimental group patients underwent combination chemotherapy and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatment were included in this investigation. Investigations without complete information, researches from which information could not be extracted, duplicate articles, animal studies, review articles, and systematic reviews were excluded. STATA 15.1 was employed for all statistical analyses.@*RESULTS@#In total, eight eligible studies were identified, revealing that combination chemotherapy and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatment was linked to significant increases in progression-free survival (PFS) relative to chemotherapy alone (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.70-0.99, P = 0.032) but not overall survival (HR = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.80-1.06, P = 0.273). Pooled adverse event rates were also increased within the group of combination treatment relative to the chemotherapy group (risk ratio [RR] = 1.08, 95% CI: 1.03-1.14, P = 0.002). Specifically, nausea rates were lesser within the group of combination treatment relative to the group of chemotherapy (RR = 0.48, 95% CI: 0.25-0.92, P = 0.026). Subgroup analyses indicated that the PFS of patients who underwent combination atezolizumab or pembrolizumab and chemotherapy treatment were substantially longer than those of patients who underwent chemotherapy alone (HR = 0.79, 95% CI: 0.69-0.89, P ≤0.001; HR = 0.79, 95% CI: 0.67-0.92, P = 0.002).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The pooled results suggest that combination chemotherapy and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatment approaches help prolong PFS in breast cancer patients, but have no statistically significant effect on overall survival (OS). Additionally, combination therapy can significantly improve complete response rate (CRR) compared with chemotherapy alone. However, combination therapy was associated with greater rates of adverse events.

Objective:To compare the differences of event-related potential P300 and serum fibroblast growth factor 22 (FGF22) levels in cognitive impairment patients with first-episode and recurrent depression, and analyze the relations of each index with cognitive function and serum inflammatory factors.Methods:From June 2020 to April 2021, 45 cognitive impairment patients with first-episode depression (first-episode group) and 42 cognitive impairment patients with recurrent depression (recurrence group) were selected from our hospital. P300 examination was performed and serum FGF22, interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent experiment (ELISA). The differences in clinical data, P300 examination results, and serum FGF22, IL-6 and TNF-α levels were compared between the two groups. The correlations of P300 amplitude and latency and serum FGF22 level with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores and IL-6 and TNF-α levels were analyzed.Results:As compared with the first-episode group, the recurrence group had significantly decreased MoCA scores, P300 amplitude and serum FGF22 level, and statistically increased P300 latency and IL-6 and TNF-α levels ( P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that P300 amplitude and serum FGF22 level were positively correlated with MoCA scores, and negatively correlated with IL-6 and TNF-α levels ( P<0.05); P300 latency was negatively correlated with MoCA scores, and positively correlated with IL-6 and TNF-α levels ( P<0.05). Conclusion:P300 amplitude and latency and serum FGF22 level are different between cognitive impairment patients with first-episode and recurrent depression, and they are correlated with the cognitive function and serum inflammatory factors.

Objective:To investigate the predictive values of serum fibroblast growth factor 22 (FGF22) levels and electrical P300 in depression patients occurred mild cognitive impairment (MCI).Methods:A prospective study was performed. A total of 94 depression patients without cognitive impairment admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to August 2021 were chosen. These patients were followed up for one year; Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)-24 items and Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA) were used to evaluate the neuropsychological function of the patients every 3 months; according to the occurrence of MCI, the patients were divided into depression with MCI group ( n=57), and depression without MCI group ( n=32). All patients underwent baseline P300 examination and baseline serum FGF22 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the differences in clinical data, P300 examination results and serum FGF22 levels were compared between the two groups. Correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlations of P300 latency and serum FGF22 level with MoCA scores. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent influence factors for MCI in patients with depression. The predictive value of P300 latency and serum FGF22 level in MCI in patients with depression was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:As compared with the depression without MCI group, patients in the depression with MCI group had significantly lower years of education and serum FGF22 level, and significantly higher proportion of patients living alone, and statistically higher P300 latency ( P<0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that the MoCA scores at MCI period were positively correlated with serum FGF22 level ( r=0.665, P<0.001) and negatively correlated with P300 latency ( r=-0.621, P<0.001) in patients from the depression with MCI group. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum FGF22 level was a protective factor for MCI in patients with depression ( OR=0.805, 95%CI: 0.737-0.862, P=0.003), and P300 latency was a risk factor for MCI in patients with depression ( OR=1.136, 95%CI: 1.115-1.163, P=0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the curve (AUC) of serum FGF22 level, P300 latency, serum FGF22 level combined with P300 latency in predicting MCI in depression patients were 0.779, 0.724, and 0.852, respectively. Conclusion:The abnormal serum FGF22 level and P300 latency are closely related to the occurrence of MCI in patients with depression, and the combination of the two can be used to predict the occurrence of MCI in patients with depression.

Objective:To explore the value of dilated Virchow-Robin spaces (dVRS) in the basal ganglia in predicting basal ganglia atrophy.Methods:A total of 120 patients accepted head MRI and conformed as having dVRS in the basal ganglia in our hospital from May 1, 2015 to April 30, 2016 were chosen in our study; these patients were followed up for 5 years. The basal ganglia volume was observed by 3.0T MRI; according to whether the basal ganglia had atrophy or not, these patients were divided into normal group ( n=82) and atrophy group ( n=38). The general data and dVRS grading between the normal group and the atrophy group were compared. The basal ganglia volume at baseline and 5 years later in patients with different dVRS grading and the difference value of basal ganglia volume at baseline and 5 years later (△basal ganglia volume) were recorded for comparative analysis. Spearman analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between △ basal ganglia volume and dVRS grading. Independent influencing factors for basal ganglia atrophy were analyzed by Logistics regression; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive values of independent influencing factors and their combination in basal ganglia atrophy. Results:Patients in the atrophy group had significantly older age, significantly higher percentage of patients with diabetes history, and significantly higher dVRS grading in the basal ganglia than those in the normal group ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in basal ganglia volume and △ basal ganglia volume at baseline and 5 years later among patients with different dVRS grading ( P<0.05); △ basal ganglia volume gradually increased with the increase of dVRS grading. Correlation analysis showed that △ basal ganglia volume was positively correlated with dVRS grading in basal ganglia ( r s=0.695, P<0.001); after adjusting for age and history of diabetes, the correlation was still positive ( r s=0.667, P<0.001). Logistics regression showed that age ( OR=1.776, 95%CI: 1.372-2.141, P=0.008), diabetes history ( OR=1.513, 95%CI: 1.129-1.954, P=0.011) and dVRS grading in the basal ganglia ( OR=2.855, 95%CI: 2.367-3.283, P=0.006) were independent influencing factors for basal ganglia atrophy. The area under the ROC curve of dVRS grading for predicting the basal ganglia atrophy was 0.709 ( 95%CI: 0.611-0.792, P<0.001), with sensitivity of 61.89% and specificity of 83.59%; that of combined age, diabetes history and dVRS grading in the basal ganglia was 0.783 ( 95%CI: 0.687-0.878, P<0.001), with sensitivity of 73.68% and specificity of 85.19%. Conclusion:The dVRS in the basal ganglia has certain predictive value in basal ganglia atrophy after 5 years.

Objective:To clarify the evidences of hippocampal injury after radiotherapy avoiding hippocampus and explore its relationships with cognition.Methods:A prospective design was adopted in this study.A total of 183 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated by intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT group) and 30 matched healthy control (HC group)were collected in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University and Southeast University Affiliated Zhongda Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019. All subjects were assessed by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-B) at baseline and 6 months after radiotherapy, then the patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were divided into cognitive impairment group and non-cognitive impairment group. Subjects were scanned with Siemens 3.0 T MR, and T 1WI was used as analysis sequence.The individual standardized hippocampus ROIs were extracted based on Montreal Neurological Institute(MNI) brain template.All texture features were calculated using the Radiomics developed by C++and Delphi, and the intra group correlation coefficients (ICC), average direction, machine learning (random forest) and autocorrelation matrix were used for reducing the features dimension. One-way ANOVA and generalized linear models were used to compare the differences among different groups. Pearson correlations analyses were used to evaluate the relationships between important texture features and clinical data. Logistic regressions were used to calculate the abilities of texture features to predict cognitive impairment. Results:After 9 patients who lost follow-up were excluded, a total of 164 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were included as IMRT group.Texture features of ROIs were extracted and dimensionally reduced successfully. Five differences features (Variance, Entropy, GlevNonU, RLNonUni and Contrast)were found among HC group, cognitive impairment group and non-cognitive impairment group, and the last three further showed significant differences within IMRT group (GlevNonU, P=0.011;RLNonUni, P<0.001;Contrast, P<0.001). Hippocampal doses were positively correlated with Variance ( r=0.448, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with Entropy ( r=-0.461, P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between MoCA-B scores with GlevNonU, RLNonUniand Contrast ( r=0.503, P<0.05; r=0.587, P<0.05; r=0.531, P<0.05). GlevNonU and Contrast were independent predictors of cognitive impairment in hippocampal avoidance of radiotherapy (OR=0.731, 95%CI 0.610-0.857; OR=0.651, 95%CI 0.496-0.853). Conclusion:Results of texture analysis could be used as micro imaging evidences of hippocampal injury in radiotherapy avoiding hippocampus, and could also effectively predict the occurrences of cognitive impairment.

BACKGROUND:Bismth-doped iron nanoparticles modified by hyaluronic acid (HA-BiIOPs) not only act as an effective MRI contrast agent, but also as a radiotherapy sensitizer.OBJECTIVE:To fabricate the HA-BiIOPs and to observe its effect to enhance the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma cells U87MG under X-ray radiation.METHODS:HA-BiIOPs were synthesized using hydrothermal polyol method. (1) Cytotoxicity: A cytotoxicity test was carried out on U87MG cells and rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Cell proliferation rate of two kinds of cells cultured with different concentrations of HA-BiIOPs (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 mg/L) at 24 hours after culture were determined by cell counting kit-8 assay. (2) Histological analysis: ICR mice were sacrificed after intravenous injection of HA-BiIOPs, and pathological changes of mouse visceral organs were observed under an optical microscope. (3) Cellular uptake: The HA-BiIOPs after entered into the cytoplasm were observed by Prussian blue staining. (4) Radiosensitization test: U87MG cells at Logarithmic growth stage were cultured in culture medium as control group, subjected to X-ray irradiation (0, 3, 6, 9 Gy) as radiotherapy group, cultured in HA-BiIOPs (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400 mg/L) as HA-BiIOPs group or subjected to HA-BiIOPs culture plus X-ray irradiation as combined therapy group. Then, the cell proliferation rate and cloning efficiency were measured at 24 hours after treatment.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The HA-BiIOPs at different concentrations were non-cytotoxic for VSMC and U87MG cells. (2) After intravenous injection of HA-BiIOPs, there was no obvious toxicity to the mouse susceptible organs. (3) After 6 hours of culture, the HA-BiIOPs could be internalized by U87MG cells. (4) The proliferation rate of U87 cells was negatively correlated with the concentration of HA-BiIOPs (0-200 mg/L) and X-ray dose (0-9 Gy). Especialy, the combination of 6 Gy X-ray irradiation with 200 mg/L HA-BiIOPs dramatically decreased the cell viability that was decreased to (41±7)%. In the combined therapy group with 6 Gy X-ray and 100 mg/L HA-BiIOPs, the cells proliferation rate was significantly lower than that in the control and radiotherapy groups (P < 0.05). These results indicate that HA-BiIOPs have a radiosensitizative effect on glioblastoma cells U87MG.
