ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the effect of lipoxin A4 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of microglia and role of silent information regulator sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)/NF-κB signaling pathway.Methods:This experiment was performed in two parts.PartⅠ The well-growth BV2 microglia were divided into 4 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), LXA4 group (group LXA4), LPS group (group LPS) and LPS+ LXA4 group (group LLI). PartⅡ The well-growth BV2 microglia were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: LPS+ LXA4 group (group LL2) and LPS+ LXA4+ SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 group (group LLE). Cells in group C were commonly cultured without any treatment. In LXA4 group and LPS group, LXA4 (final concentration 100 nmol/L) and LPS (final concentration 100 ng/ml) were added respectively, and then the cells were incubated for 24 h. In LL1 group and LL2 group, LXA4 (final concentration 100 nmol/L) was added at 1 h before treatment with LPS, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in LPS group. EX527 (final concentration of 5 μmol/L) was added at 30 min before treatment with LXA4, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in LL2 group.The expression of inducible nitricoxide synthase (iNOS), CD32, arginine synthase 1 (Arg-1), CD206, interleuckin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and IL-10 mRNA was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10 in the supernatant were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The content of ROS was detected by DCFH-DA. The activity of SOD was measured by WST-8 assay. The expression of NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2), superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), SIRT1 and acetylated NF-κB p65 was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with group C, the expression of iNOS, CD32, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA was significantly up-regulated, the concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the supernatant were increased ( P<0.05), no significant change was found in the expression of Arg-1, CD206 and IL-10 mRNA and IL-10 concentrations in the supernatant, the expression of NOX2 and HO-1 was up-regulated, SOD1 expression was down-regulated, the activity of SOD was decreased, the content of ROS was increased, the expression of SIRT1 was down-regulated, and the expression of acetylated NF-κB p65 was up-regulated in group LPS ( P<0.05). Compared with group LPS, the expression of iNOS, CD32, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA was significantly down-regulated, the expression of Arg-1, CD206 and IL-10 mRNA was up-regulated, concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the supernatant were decreased, the concentration of IL-10 was increased, the expression of NOX2 was down-regulated, the expression of HO-1 and SOD1 was up-regulated, the activity of SOD was increased, the content of ROS was decreased, the expression of SIRT1 was up-regulated, and the expression of acetylated NF-κB p65 was down-regulated in group LL1 ( P<0.05). Compared with group LL2, the concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the supernatant were significantly increased, the activity of SOD was decreased, the content of ROS was increased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the IL-10 concentration in the supernatant in group LLE ( P>0.05). Conclusions:LXA 4 can inhibit LPS-induced polarization of microglia to M1 phenotype, and the mechanism may be related to enhancement of SIRT1 activity and inhibition of NF-κB transcriptional activity.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the value of multi-modal MRI in the differential diagnosis of pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis in the breast. Methods Forty female patients who underwent 3.0 T MRI within 1 week before sugery and confirmed as breast fibroadenosis by pathology in the General Hospital of the PLA Rocket Force from January 2014 to May 2016 were retrospectively analyzed in this study. There were 20 cases of pure fibroadenosis which including mass type and non-tumor type, 10 cases per type. Twenty cases of mixed fibrous adenosis which including 4 cases of mass type and 16 cases of non-mass type. According to the breast imaging reporting and data system-MRI standard, conventional MRI features, time intensity curve (TIC) types and ADC values of the lesions were observed. MRI features and ages of pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis were compared using χ2 test (qualitative data) and independent sample t test (quantitative data), P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Statistically significant parameters were then used to perform logistic regression analysis to evaluate predictive value . The efficacy of each MRI parameter in the differential diagnosis of pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis was analyzed by ROC. Results Statistically significant differencein the size(P<0.05) but no differences in the shape, T2WI manifestation, marginal, internal enhancement, early enhancement curve, and late enhancement (P>0.05) were observed between pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis. There was no significant differences in distribution, internal enhancement, early enhancement curve and late enhancement curve between non-tumor type pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis (P>0.05). There were significant differences in age, ADC value and peak signal intensity(P<0.05) while no significant differences in early enhancement rate, maximum enhancement rate and peak time (P>0.05) between patients with pure fibroadenosis and mixed fibroadenosis. Logistic regression analysis suggested that the peak signal intensity was closely related to age. It revealed a positive correlation between ADC value, peak signal intensity and the possibility of mixed fibroadenosis. The regression coefficient value, Wals value, and P value of the ADC value were 3.652, 4.363 and 0.034, respectively. The regression coefficient value, Wals value, and P value of the peak signal intensity were 0.005, 5.463 and 0.019, respectively. The area under ROC curve of ADC value, peak signal intensity, ADC value combined with peak signal intensity were 0.697, 0.701 and 0.786, respectively. Conclusions Significantly differences of peak signal intensity and ADC value were observed in mixed fibroadenosis compared with pure fibroadenosis. The combination of ADC value and peak signal intensity had the highest efficacy in predicting pure and mixed fibroadenosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the difference in the effectiveness between proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) and proximal femoral locking compression plate (PFLCP) for intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients combined with hemiplegia due to cerebral infarction. Methods: The clinical data of 67 cases of intertrochanteric femoral fractures combined with hemiplegia due to cerebral infarction between October 2013 and January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 32 cases were treated with PFNA internal fixation (PFNA group), and 35 cases were treated with PFLCP internal fixation (PFLCP group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, injury side, modified Evans classification of fracture, preoperative medical disease, and interval from injury to operation between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative bed time, incidence of perioperative complications, time of fracture healing, and hip Harris score at 6 months and 1 year after operation were recorded and compared. Results: Both groups were followed up 12-24 months with an average of 14 months. Compared with the PFLCP group, the PFNA group had shorter operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, and shorter bed time, and the differences were significant ( P0.05); However, the joint deformity and activity score of the PFNA group was significantly better than that of the PFLCP group ( t=4.112, P=0.000). Conclusion: For intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients with cerebral infarction hemiplegia, the PFNA has shorter operative time, less intraoperative blood loss, shorter bed time after operation, and better short-term hip function when compared with the PFLCP.

ABSTRACT

Multiple myeloma (MM)is a kind of plasma tumor originated from B cell line. Its incidence ranks in second place of hematopoietic malignancies. Although continued progress was made in treatment of MM,the survival rate and prognosis of MM patients are still not satisfactory. Further understanding of the pathogenesis of MM may provide information to develop new treatment strategies, so as to improve survival rate and ameliorate its prognosis. Many researches have demonstrated that bone marrow microenvironment plays an important role in MM pathogenesis, which regulates the biological properties of MM cells, including migration and proliferation, through miRNA, mRNA and protein contained in the exosomes released from the cells in the tumor microenvironment. Recently, as the tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes, exosomal microRNA become a hot spot in research. Compared with those of the normal ones, exosomes in MM have less miR-15a and/or more miR-135b and miR-21. These differences will accelerate the progression of MM via PI3K/Akt/eNOS/VEGF pathway, FIH-HIF pathway, MAPK/ERK/Ras pathway and so on, that are expected to become the new targets for the treatment of MM. This review summarizes the role and the possible mechanism of exosomes in the progression of MM.

ABSTRACT

More and more studies have demonstrated that bone marrow microenvironment, the fundament of the multiplication and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells, plays a crucial role in leukemia progression and resistance to treatment. It provides a permissive environment for minimal residual disease and contributes to relapse and multidrug resistance. Mesenchymal stem cells are a kind of important stromal cells in bone marrow niche. In recent researches, MSC have been shown to be one of the major factors modulating the biological features of leukemia cells. The cross-talk between MSC and leukemia cells can take place not only by direct contact, but also by exosome exchange. Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles released by a variety of cells, which contain protein, RNA and mRNA. They are effective tools for transportation between cells, and play an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. Exosome is a new topic in the research of leukemia and microenvironment. The exosome research will help elucidate the mechanism of leukemia, thus providing new ideas for the treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the genotypes of hepatitis C virus (HCV) circulating in intravenous drug users (IDUs) in Pudong new district,Shanghai,and explore the population growth and selection pressure of the HCV strains isolated.Methods A total of 200 serum specimens sampled from IDUs in local methadone maintenance treatment clinic in Pudong were used for amplification of a HCV NS5B 377-nt partial sequence.Mean evolutionary rate and effective number of infections were estimated based on the 377-nt partial sequences of the HCV strains isolated from IDUs and isolated contemporarily from local voluntary blood donors,men who have sex with men and reported hepatitis C cases by using BEAST software.Selection pressure sites were identified with online Datamonkey software for subsequent comparison with direct-acting antiviral (DAA) drug binding sites.Results A total of 39 (19.5%) serum specimens were positive for HCV RNA.The genotypes were determined based on the HCV NS5B 377-nt partial sequences as follows:subtype 3a (n=14),3b (n=13),lb (n=7),6a (n=4) and 6n (n=1).The partial sequences of the HCV strains isolated in IDUs shared high homology with the sequences of the HCV strains isolated in other populations.The Bayesian Skyline Plot indicated that the estimated infections with HCV subtype 1b increased exponentially during the 1990s,whereas that of subtypes 3a and 3b increased slowly since the mid-1990s.In the NS5B 377-nt partial sequences of the HCV strains isolated in IDUs,there were two positive selection sites and seventy-eight negative selection sites recognized.The mutation rate was as low as 2.2% in the 377-nt partial sequences corresponding to the known seven DAA drug binding sites.Conclusions HCV subtype 3a and 3b were the predominant genotypes in the IDUs in Pudong.Subtype lb was prevalent in different populations and evolved very rapidly,and more infections might be caused,suggesting further attention to its prevention,control and treatment.Although DAA treatment based on HCV NS5B binding sites targeting local IDUs might be effective,it is still necessary to strengthen the surveillance.

Objective To analyze risk factors for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in inpatients with type 2 diabetes.Methods A total of 930 inpatients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled in the study and grouped according to different levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR),albuminuria,and diabetic retinopathy.Logistic regression analysis was adopted to explore the risk factors for DKD in inpatients with type 2 diabetes.Results (1) The prevalence of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was increased with declining eGFR (P < 0.05).(2) The prevalences of DKD and non-diabetic renal disease (NDRD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were 22.26% and 8.92%,respectively.Compared with patients with NDRD,patients with DKD had longer diabetic duration,higher levels of systolic blood pressure,serum creatinine,and urinary albumin excretion,and lower levels of hemoglobin[(125.40 ± 21.95 vs 138.18 ± 19.67) g/L],serum albumin[(37.45 ± 5.54 vs 40.55 ± 3.55) g/L],and eGFR[(89.66 (59.10-108.25) vs 103.15 (85.39-114.88) ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1,all P<0.05].(3) Logistic regression analysis showed that age,diabetic duration,systolic blood pressure,serum uric acid,diabetic retinopathy,and hypertension are the independent risk factors for diabetic kidney disease in inpatients with type 2 diabetes,while serum albumin was the protective factor (all P<0.01).Conclusions A variety of clinic risk factors were associated with DKD.Better control of blood pressure,serum uric acid,and hypoalbuminemia should be performed to delay the progress of DKD.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of treating glioma in combination with drugs multiply by comparing the size of tumor and the survival time of different groups in rat glioma after targeted blood-brain barrier (BBB ) disruption by MRI-guided focused ultrasound.Methods The stereotaxis instruments and the 10 μl gas-tight syringes were used to inject gliosarcoma cells into the targeted area of the brain in 50 male Sprague-Dawley rats.The glioma-bearing rat model was established.Each rat received either:(1 )no treatment (control;n =8);(2)single liposomal doxorubicin (DOX;n = 10);(3)multiple DOX (n =10);(4)single Avastin (AVS)and DOX (n =10);(5)multiple AVS and DOX (n =10).The SonoVue microbubble ultrasonic contrast agent and DOX or AVS were injected into the tail vein respectively on day 12 after implantation.The tumor size was measured by MRI on pre-treatment,immediacy and once a week of post-treatment after targeted BBB disruption by focused ultrasound,and the life span in rat glioma was recorded.Results The mediam survival of different groups in rat glioma(The range of the life span 13-90 d):no treatment (7 d);single DOX (12 d);multiple DOX (1 5 d);single AVS + DOX (22 d), multiple AVS+ DOX (30 d).There was significant difference of the groups on mediam survival comparison (P < 0.01 ).The tumor growth pattern after post-treatment of different groups in rat glioma except control:single DOX was noticeable fast and multiple AVS+DOX was visibly delayed comparable to other groups,and finally the tumor size of multiple AVS + DOX even became small.Conclusions The microbubble blasting enhances the local tissue permeability and promotes the drug delivery of chemotherapy and anti-angiogenesis locally in glioma-bearing rats by MRI-guided focused ultrasound.Especially,the combination with drugs multiply has a synergism efficacy that may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy,reduce tumor growth,and even become small of the tumor size,and increase survival time significantly after BBB disruption.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of Zuogui pill, Yougui pill and the relative compositions on the differentiation towards germ cells of stem cells.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The rat drug sera for Zuogui pill, Yougui pill and the common composition of Zuogui pill and Yougui pill were prepared respectively as the experimental drugs; the mouse embryonic stem cell 1B10 (MESC-1B10) was used as the representative of stem cells; the above rat drug sera were used to intervene MESC-1B10 and the process was traced by microscopy imaging; after 72 h of the intervention, the RNAs were extracted from the different intervened MESC-1B10, cDNAs were synthesized immediately and finally the Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to measure the expression patterns of the 10 reproductive-differentiation-related genes for each intervention.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The rat drug serum of Zuogui pill (ZGW-RS) significantly up-regulated Oct-4 and SCP3 and significantly down-regulated GDF-9 and Stra8; the rat drug serum of Yougui pill (ZGW-RS) significantly up-regulated Oct-4, GDF-9, Mvh and SCP3 and significantly down-regulated Stra8, Itga6 and Itgb1; the rat drug sera for the common composition of Zuogui pill and Yougui pill (ZGWYGW-RS) significantly up-regulated Oct-4, SCP3 and ZP3 and significantly down-regulated GDF-9, Stra8, Itga6 and Itgb1.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>ZGW-RS can initiate the change towards meiosis, but can not start the reproductive differentiation of MESC-1B10; YGW-RS can initiate the change towards meiosis, and can also start the reproductive differentiation of MESC-1B10 towards female germ cells; ZGWYGW-RS can initiate the change towards meiosis, and can lightly start the reproductive differentiation of MESC-1B10 towards female germ cells but the inductive effect is smaller than YGW-RS. The experimental results, on one hand, strengthen the knowledge about the influence of the relative compositions of Zuogui pill and Yougui pill on the reproductive differentiation of stem cells, on the other hand, help to explain the mechanism of the treatment of the infertility by Zuogui pill and Yougui pill.</p>
