ABSTRACT

With the increasing use of lower-extremity arterial angioplasty and the clinical use of a variety of vascular preparation devices. Vascular surgeons have more vascular preparation equipment such as cutting balloon, double wire balloon, chocolate balloon, shock wave balloon, AngioJet, Roterax and Acostream. These options can improve clinical outcomes, improve patient experience, and reduce stent placement and associated complications. This article will review the available vascular preparation devices for volume reduction, endovascular lithotripsy, and other special balloons to help clinicians choose the appropriate vascular preparation for their condition to improve perioperative safety and long-term patency.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:It has been found that vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic proteins interact with each other during hypoxia-reoxygenation and are involved in the repair process of osteoblast injury by regulating the activation of intracellular signaling pathways. OBJECTIVE:To further investigate the relationship between vascular endothelial growth factor 165/bone morphogenetic protein and hypoxic-reoxygenated osteoblast injury. METHODS:Osteoblasts were selected and the hypoxic-reoxygenated injury model was established.Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein expressions at mRNA and protein levels were detected by real-time PCR and western blot before and after modeling.After modeling,osteoblasts were given different concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein 2(10,20,40 ng/mL).Cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 method and apoptosis was detected by DAPI at 12,24,36,48,and 72 hours after treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with before modeling,the mRNA and protein expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein 2 in osteoblasts after modeling were significantly decreased(P<0.05).The proliferation rate of osteoblasts was significantly increased with the increase of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 concentration(P<0.05),while the apoptosis rate of osteoblasts decreased significantly with the increase of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 concentration(P<0.05).The proliferation rate of osteoblast was significantly increased with the increase of bone morphogenetic protein 2 concentration(P<0.05),while the apoptosis rate of osteoblast decreased significantly with the increase of bone morphogenetic protein 2 concentration(P<0.05).To conclude,vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein are lowly expressed in hypoxic-reoxygenated osteoblast injury,and treatment with vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein can reduce the injury of hypoxic-reoxygenated osteoblast in a concentration-dependent manner,suggesting that vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and bone morphogenetic protein have a significant protective effect against the injury of hypoxic-reoxygenated osteoblasts.

ABSTRACT

Cells not only contain membrane-bound organelles (MBOs), but also membraneless organelles (MLOs) formed by condensation of many biomacromolecules. Examples include RNA-protein granules such as nucleoli and PML nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) in the nucleus, as well as stress granules and P-bodies in the cytoplasm. Phase separation is the basic organizing principle of the form of the condensates or membraneless organelles (MLOs) of biomacromolecules including proteins and nucleic acids. In particular, liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) compartmentalises and concentrates biological macromolecules into liquid condensates. It has been found that phase separation of biomacromolecules requires some typical intrinsic characteristics, such as intrinsically disordered regions, modular domains and multivalent interactions. The phase separation of biomacromolecules plays a key role in many important cell activities. In recent years, the phase separation of biomacromolecules phase has become a focus of research in gene transcriptional regulation. Transcriptional regulatory elements such as RNA polymerases, transcription factors (TFs), and super enhancers (SEs) all play important roles through phase separation. Our group has previously reported for the first time that long-term inactivation or absence of assembly factors leads to the formation of condensates of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) subunits in the cytoplasm, and this process is reversible, suggesting a novel regulatory model of eukaryotic transcription machinery. The phase separation of biomacromolecules provides a biophysical understanding for the rapid transmission of transcriptional signals by a large number of TFs. Moreover, phase separation during transcriptional regulation is closely related to the occurrence of cancer. For example, the activation of oncogenes is usually associated with the formation of phase separation condensates at the SEs. In this review, the intrinsic characteristics of the formation of biomacromolecules phase separation and the important role of phase separation in transcriptional regulation are reviewed, which will provide reference for understanding basic cell activities and gene regulation in cancer.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the effects of modified Zhujing Pill on the mitochondrion structure and dynamin-related protein of retinal pigment epithelial cells(RPEs)in mice with form deprivation myopia.METHODS: 3-week-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group, model group and Chinese medicine group, with 10 mice in each group. Myopia model of the right eye of mice was established by means of form deprivation in model and Chinese medicine groups. After 4wk, the Chinese medicine group were given intragastric administration of modified Zhujing Pill suspension 0.546g/(kg·d)(0.2mL/d)for 4wk, and same amount of saline was given to mice in other groups at the same time of modeling. The axial length and diopter of the right eye of the mouse were measured before and after the experiment by A-ultrasound and a strip retinoscope respectively. At the end of the experiment, the mitochondrial ultrastructure of RPEs was observed by transmission electron microscope. Western blot, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(q-PCR)were used to detect quantitative and gene expression of mitofusin 1(MFN1), optic atrophy 1(OPA1), and dynamin-related protein 1(DRP1)in retinal tissues respectively.RESULTS: At the beginning of the experiment, there was no statistically significant difference in axial length and diopter of the right eye of the mouse in control, model and Chinese medicine groups(P>0.05). At the end of the experiment, compared with the control group, the mice in the model group and the Chinese medicine group had lower diopter and continuously prolonged axial length(all P<0.05), while the mice in the Chinese medicine group had significantly shorter axial length and higher diopter than the model group(all P<0.05). Western blot and q-PCR results showed that the relative expression of MFN1 and OPA1 decreased and DRP1 increased in both the model group and the Chinese medicine group compared with the control group(all P<0.05), and the relative expression of MFN1 and OPA1 increased in the Chinese medicine group compared with the model group(all P<0.05). The electron microscopic results showed that the mitochondria in the right retina of the mice were only mildly swollen in the Chinese medicine group, while the mitochondria in the model group were obviously swollen and disordered and empty.CONCLUSION: Modified Zhujing Pill could protect the retinal mitochondria by regulating the key proteins of mitochondrial dynamics(MFN1, OPA1, and DRP1), and it has a protective effect on the retina of axial myopic mice.

ABSTRACT

Peripheral retinal degeneration is a typical lesion in ophthalmic clinical practice. Each type of degeneration affects distinct retinal layers and may lead to sight-threatening complications. Due to its specific location, where current ophthalmic imaging technologies have difficulties observing, the pathogenesis remains unclear despite previous works. This review outlines the characteristics of peripheral retinal degeneration by different wide-field imaging technologies, including ultra-wide field fundus imaging, wide field spectral domain optical coherence tomography, optical coherence tomography angiography and fundus fluorescein angiography, as well as new perspectives on their pathogenesis or pathological characteristics so as to provide new ideas for clinical diagnosis and management. Due to the small size of sample and the lack of prospective and long-term observation of multimodal imaging, it is still impossible to comprehensively evaluate the progression and risk of different types of degeneration. Therefore, it is expected that wide-field multimodal imaging technology will be more widely applied to study the mechanism of peripheral retinal degeneration and guide the clinical practice options.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the relationship between miR-199b and clinicopathologic features and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer. Methods: Cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues of 202 patients with colorectal cancer treated in Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March to December 2011 were collected. Reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression level of miR-199b in colorectal cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test were used for survival analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the prognostic value of miR-199b in colorectal cancer patients. Results: The relative expression level of miR-199b in colorectal cancer tissues (-7.88±0.11) was lower than that in adjacent normal tissues (-6.49±0.12, P<0.001). The expression level of miR-199b in colorectal cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis (-7.51±0.14) was higher than that in colorectal cancer tissues without lymph node metastasis (-8.23±0.17, P<0.001). The relative expression levels of miR-199b in stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ colorectal cancer tissues were gradually increased, which were -8.26±0.17, -7.70±0.16 and -6.57±0.27, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The 5-year survival rates of patients with high and low expressions of miR-199b were 75.6% and 84.6%(P=0.045) respectively. ROC curve showed that when miR-199b was -7.965, the area under the curve was 0.578 (95% CI: 0.468, 0.688). Conclusion: The high expression of miR-199b in colorectal cancer tissues is associated with late TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer patients, and miR-199b may be used as a potential marker for postoperative progress and prognosis in colorectal cancer patients.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the correlation between the expression of silencing information regulator 2 related enzyme 1 (SIRT1), tumor necrosis factor like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) and knee osteoarthritis.@*METHODS@#Total of 103 patients with knee joint (knee osteoarthritis group) from February 2019 to August 2021 were selected including 40 males and 63 females with an average age of (62.02±6.09) years;according to the modified Mankin score, 103 patients were divided into mild group (Mankin score 1-4 points, 31 cases) and moderate group (Mankin score 5-8 points, 40 cases) and severe group (Mankin score ≥9, 32 cases). Another 105 physical examination volunteers were selected as the control group including 46 males and 59 females with an average age of (62.11±6.34) years old. The levels of SIRT1 and TWEAK in articular effusion and serum were detected in the knee osteoarthritis group, while serum SIRT1 and TWEAK were detected in the control group only. The relationship between SIRT1, TWEAK and the occurrence and disease of knee osteoarthritis were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Articular cavity fluid TWEAK, serum TWEAK, CRP, IL-6, IL-1β, white blood cell count and ESR were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05), articular cavity fluid SIRT1 and serum SIRT1 were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05). TWEAK level in the severe group was higher than that in the moderate and mild groups(P<0.05), SIRT1 was lower than that in the moderate and mild groups (P<0.05). The level of SIRT1 in articular cavity effusion was positively correlated with the serum level of SIRT1 (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with CRP, IL-6, IL-1β, white blood cell count, modified Mankin score and ESR (P<0.05). TWEAK level in articular cavity fluid was positively correlated with serum TWEAK level (P<0.05), C-reactive protein(CRP), interleukin(IL)-6, IL-1β, white blood cell count, modified Mankin score and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) (P<0.05). Body mass index, undertaking heavy physical work, and articular cavity fluid TWEAK were risk factors for the occurrence of knee osteoarthritis(P<0.05), and articular cavity fluid SIRT1 was a protective factor for the occurrence of knee arthritis (P<0.05). The area under curve(AUC) of SIRT1 and TWEAK for knee osteoarthritis was 0.641 and 0.653, and the AUC of SIRT1 and TWEAK for knee osteoarthritis was 0.879, which was higher than SIRT1 and TWEAK alone (z=6.105 and 6.225, P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The level of SIRT1 in articular fluid in patients with knee arthritis is decreased and the level of TWEAK is increased. Low SIRT1 and high TWEAK are associated with the onset and exacerbation of knee osteoarthritis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the value of deep learning technology based on mammography in differentiating for breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) category 3 and 4 lesions.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 305 patients with 314 lesions assessed as BI-RADS category 3 and 4 by mammography were analyzed retrospectively in Shenzhen People′s Hospital and Shenzhen Luohu People′s Hospital from January to December 2020. All 305 patients were female, aged 21 to 83 (47±12) years. Two general radiologists (general radiologist A and general radiologist B) with 5 and 6 years of work experience and two professional breast imaging diagnostic radiologists (professional radiologist A and professional radiologist B) with 21 years of work experience and specialized breast imaging training were randomly assigned to read the imaging independently at a 1∶1 ratio, and then to read the imaging again in combination with the deep learning system. Finally, breast lesions were reclassified into BI-RADS category 3 or 4. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the diagnostic performance, and the differences of AUCs were compared by DeLong method.Results:The AUC of general radiologist A combined with deep learning system to reclassify BI-RADS category 3 and 4 breast lesions was significantly higher than that of general radiologist A alone (AUC=0.79, 0.63, Z=2.82, P=0.005, respectively). The AUC of general radiologist B combined with deep learning system to reclassify BI-RADS category 3 and 4 breast lesions was significantly higher than that of general radiologist B (AUC=0.83, 0.64, Z=3.32, P=0.001, respectively). There was no significant difference in the AUCs between professional radiologist A combined with deep learning system and professional radiologist A, and professional radiologist B combined with deep learning system and professional radiologist B in reclassifying BI-RADS category 3 and 4 breast lesions ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The deep learning system based on mammography is more effective in assisting general radiologists to differentiate between BI-RADS category 3 and 4 lesions.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To fulfill the automatic radiolabeling of the norepinephrine transporter (NET) trancer 18F-meta-fluorobenzylguanidine (mFBG), and explore the 18F-mFBG PET/CT imaging effect of pheochromocytoma. Methods:On the basis of the chemical structure of mFBG, a spirocyclic iodonium ylide was used as the precursor to undergo a 3-step reaction sequence (radiofluorination, deprotection and neutralization) on AllinOne synthesis module. Purification by high performance liquid chromatography and formulation were conducted to generate 18F-mFBG. The corresponding quality control tests of 18F-mFBG product was performed. Afterwards, a postoperative patient with pheochromocytoma underwent 18F-mFBG PET/CT imaging. Results:The radiosynthesis was accomplished within 70 min, and 18F-mFBG was obtained in (17.8±2.4)% non-decay-corrected radiochemical yield ( n=5), with radiochemical purity >97% and molar activity >59.2 GBq/μmol. Sterility test, bacterial endotoxins test, abnormal toxicity test and the acetonitrile residue all met the requirements of Pharmacopoeia of the People′ s Republic of China (2020 Volume Ⅳ). The 18F-mFBG PET/CT imaging disclosed high uptake in pheochromocytoma and clear localization of lesions. Conclusions:The automatic radiolabeling of the NET targeted tracer 18F-mFBG is successfully realized by commercially available synthesis module, and the production quality meets all requirements for clinical translation. 18F-mFBG has a potential to image neuroendocrine lesions in clinical setting.

ABSTRACT

Dual antiplatelet therapy has been widely used for the secondary prevention in patients with minor stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA). Currently, the commonly used antiplatelet drugs are aspirin and clopidogrel. The therapeutic effect of antiplatelet drugs varies among individuals, namely platelet resistance. Among them, aspirin resistance is often caused by poor drug compliance, while clopidogrel resistance is often associated with CYP2C19 allele mutations. Patients with minor stroke and high-risk TIA carrying CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles have poor preventive effects when using clopidogrel. Early screening of the CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles and targeted measures can benefit such patients. This article reviews the research progress on the selection of antiplatelet therapy for minor stroke or high-risk TIA patients carrying the CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between left ventricular dysfunction and cogni-tive impairment in patients with ischemic heart disease(IHD),and explore the potential patho-genesis of cognitive impairment in IHD patients.Methods Fifty IHD patients who underwent hybrid cardiac PET/MR in our hospital from September 2020 to December 2022 were retrospec-tively enrolled in this study.According to their Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)scores,they were categorized into a cognitively normal group(21 cases,MoCA score ≥26)and a cogni-tively declining group(29 cases,MoCA score<26).All patients received 13N-NH3·H2O myocar-dial perfusion imaging and 18F-FDG cardiac PET/MR to evaluate cardiac function and obtain car-diac imaging parameters.Spearman correlation analysis was applied to analyze the correlation between cardiac PET/MR parameters and MoCA scores.General linear model analysis was applied to analyze the correlation between MoCA scores and cardiac PET/MR parameters after adjusting for co variates.Results Compared with the cognitively normal group,the patients in the cognitively declining group had significantly lower stroke volume[56.95(47.51,77.64)ml vs 82.66(73.88,92.92)ml,P=0.001],stroke volume index[34.07(28.93,43.20)ml/m2 vs 44.28(38.06,49.49)ml/m2,P=0.008],cardiac output[3.92(3.18,5.34)L/min vs 5.13(4.58,5.67)L/min,P=0.007],and cardiac index[(2.42±0.68)L/(min·m2)vs(2.78±0.39)L/(min·m2),P=0.021].Spearman correlation analysis revealed that MoCA score was positively correlated with stroke volume(r=0.497,P=0.001),stroke volume index(r=0.365,P=0.009)and cardiac output(r=0.361,P=0.010).After adjusting for sex,age,education level and vascular risk factors,MoCA score re-mained positively correlated with stroke volume(r=0.497,P=0.003).Conclusion Systemic hy-poperfusion in IHD patients may be one of the mechanisms leading to cognitive impairment.

ABSTRACT

Pachychoroid spectrum diseases(PSD)have been defined as a group of diseases with similar choroidal features and pathological processes, such as central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC), polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV), etc. The main features are the changes in the thickness of vascular layers of the choroid and increasing vascular permeability. The development of modern ophthalmic imaging devices represented by optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)allowed intuitive investigation of the changes in the choroidal vascular layers, which gives a new insight into the pathogenesis of this spectrum diseases. This article summarizes the common clinical characteristics of healthy individuals and PSD and reviews the latest imaging findings. Whether each type of PSD is a phenotype of the same disease at different stages or other with similar characteristics was discussed from different perspectives, such as genetic background and anatomical structure, providing a reference for the study of pathogenesis, early clinical diagnosis, and prevention and treatment of this disease.

ABSTRACT

Aim To observe the effect of corticotropin-releasing factor ( CRF) -expressing neurons on presympathetic neurons in hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus ( PVN) of normotensive Wistar Kyoto ( WKY) rats or spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) , and to elucidate the underlying neuronal circuit mechanism of central sympathetic hyperexcitability. Methods The expression levels of CRF protein in WKY rats and SHR PVN were determined by Western blot. Meanwhile, the WKY and SHR PVN CRF-expressing neurons and presympathetic neurons were observed by immunofluo-rescent staining. Adult WKY rats and SHR were used in this study. By microinjection of Cre-dependent ade-no-associated viruses ( AAV) that specifically recognized the CRF promoter and AAV of chemogenetics into the PVN, CRF-expressing neurons expressed designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs). Human M3 muscarinic DREADD coupled to Gq receptor ( hM3 Dq) was specifically expressed in PVN CRF-expressing neurons in WKY rats, while human M4 muscarinic DREADD coupled to Gi receptor ( hM4Di) was specifically expressed in PVN CRF-expressing neurons in SHR. Clozapine-N-oxide (CNO) , as a designer ligand, would couple to excitatory hM3Dq or inhibitory hM4Di to regulate the excitability of PVN CRF-expressing neurons. Then the PVN presympathetic neurons were retrogradely labeled by microinjection of fluosecent tracer into the intermedio-lateral column (IML) of spinal cord. Lastly, whole cell patch clamp was used to determine the effect of CNO (10 jjumol L~ ) on spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents ( sEPSCs) and current-evoked firing of PVN presympathtic neurons of WKY rats and SHR. Results The expression of CRF protein in the PVN of SHR was significantly higher than that of WKY rats, and the activity and number of CRF-expressing neurons in the PVN of SHR were increased. PVN CRF-expressing neurons were expressed with chemogenetic DREADDs and PVN presympathetic neurons were retrogradely labeled with fluorescent tracer in WKY rats and SHR. In SHR expressed with chemogenetic inhibitory hM4Di-mCherry of PVN CRF-expressing neurons, bath application of CNO to the brain slices resulted in a significant decrease in sEPSCs frequency, but no change in their amplitude of labeled PVN presympathetic neurons. In contrast, in WKY rats expressed with excitatory hM3Dq-eGFP of PVN CRF-expressing neurons, CNO had no obvious effect on the sEPSCs frequency and amplitude in PVN presympathetic neurons. Furthermore, bath application of CNO had no significant effect on current-evoked firing of PVN presympathetic neurons of either WKY rats with hM3Dq-eGFP expression in CRF neurons or SHR with hM4Di-mCherry expression in CRF neurons. Conclusions The activity and number of PVN CRF-expressing neurons are increased in SHR, and CRF-expressing neurons enhance the excitability of presympathetic neurons, which acts as a regulatory neuronal microcircuit between CRF neurons and presympathetic neurons in the PVN.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the expression of targeting protein for xenopus kinesin-like protein 2(TPX2) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its clinical prognostic significance. Methods First, the expression levels, survival prognosis and correlation of TPX2 in HCC were analyzed using UALCAN, K-PLOT and HPA databases. Secondly, the TIMER, GEPIA, and SangerBox databases were used to analyze the immune cell infiltration of TPX2, its correlation with TP53 mutation, and the mutation landscape map. Finally, the co-expressed genes of TPX2 in HCC and their prognostic value were analyzed by HCCDB database, and the co-expressed genes were analyzed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) were analyzed by the HCCDB database. Results TPX2 was highly expressed in HCC and was not conducive to overall survival(OS), disease-specific survival(DSS), progression-free survival(PFS), and recurrence free survival(RFS) of HCC patients; and its presence in HCC was significantly correlated with tumor cell purity and multiple immune cells (B cells, CD4
