RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo screen and validate key enzyme genes affecting the polysaccharide content in different Polygonatum species and perform in-depth amino acid sequence analysis by transcriptomic analysis of P. zanlanscianense, P. kingianum, and P. cyrtonema rhizomes to enrich the transcriptome data of Polygonatum plants and provide references for polysaccharide biosynthesis mechanism and genetic improvement. MethodThe Polygonatum transcriptome was sequenced and analyzed using the Illumina NovaSeq high-throughput sequencing platform, and the differences in the transcriptomes of the three Polygonatum species were compared and according to the annotations of Nr, Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases. The key enzymes in the polysaccharide metabolism pathway were screened, and the expression of key enzyme genes was clustered and correlated with the polysaccharide content. Finally, Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was performed to validate the eight key enzyme genes, and the key genes of polysaccharide biosynthesis were further screened for homologous gene sequence analysis in combination with sequencing results, followed by constructing phylogenetic trees, predicting motifs, conserved structural domains, protein sequence isoelectric points, and molecular weights, and constructing 3D protein structures by using homology modeling method. ResultThe annotation of the Nr database revealed that three Polygonatum species had the highest gene homology with Asparagus officinalis. GO database annotation results showed that three Polygonatum species differed significantly in binding, catalytic activity, metabolic processes, and cellular components, while the KEGG pathway annotation results indicated that three Polygonatum species differed significantly in the starch and sucrose metabolic pathway and galactose metabolic pathway. According to clustering analysis, correlation analysis, Real-time PCR, expression profiles, and structural and functional predictions of amino acid sequences, the key enzyme significantly affecting the polysaccharide content in different Polygonatum species was inferred to be β-fructofuranosidase (sacA). ConclusionSacA may be the main influencing factor for the difference in polysaccharide content of Polygonatum, and is also an important reason why Polygonatum polysaccharides are mainly fructans.
RESUMEN
Objective:To observe the effect of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) on blood-brain barrier permeability in rats.Methods:Forty-eight healthy clean male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation (Sham) group, low tidal volume (LVT) mechanical ventilation group (LVT group), normal tidal volume (NVT) mechanical ventilation group (NVT group) and high tidal volume (HVT) mechanical ventilation group (HVT group) with 12 rats in each group. After anesthesia, rats in the Sham group were intubated and kept spontaneous breathing. The rats in different tidal volume (VT) groups were mechanically ventilated by endotracheal intubation with VT of 6 mL/kg (LVT group), 10 mL/kg (NVT group), and 20 mL/kg (HVT group), respectively. The inspiration-expiration ratio of the three groups was 1∶1, the ventilation frequency was 40 times/min, and the ventilation time was 3 hours. At the end of the experiment, the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of rats was collected, and the levels of pro-inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukins (IL-1β and IL-6)] in BALF were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The lung tissues of rats were collected, and the lung wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio was calculated. The pathological changes of lung tissues were observed under light microscopy after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and lung injury scores were performed. The brain tissue of rats was taken to measure the brain water content, and the Evans blue (EB) content of brain tissue was measured to reflect the permeability of the blood-brain barrier. The tight junction proteins in the brain tissues were detected by Western blotting.Results:After 3 hours of mechanical ventilation, with the increase of VT, the degree of lung injury in VILI rats gradually increased. When VT reached 20 mL/kg, lung tissue structure was significantly injured, alveolar wall edema, alveolar congestion, lung interstitial thickening, a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated, and the lung injury score, lung W/D ratio, and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in BALF were significantly higher than those in the Sham group [lung injury score: 10.6±1.1 vs. 1.4±1.0, lung W/D ratio: 6.6±0.8 vs. 3.7±0.6, TNF-α(ng/L): 832.9±97.9 vs. 103.8±23.3, IL-1β (ng/L): 68.9±14.1 vs. 15.7±2.6, IL-6 (ng/L): 70.8±16.4 vs. 20.3±5.4, all P < 0.05]. Lung injury in rats was accompanied by aggravating brain injury. When VT reached 20 mL/kg, brain water content and EB content in brain tissue were significantly higher than those in the Sham group [brain water content: (85.4±3.6)% vs. (68.7±2.7)%, EB content in brain tissue (μg/g): 887±78 vs. 97±14, both P < 0.05], and the protein expressions of claudin-5, occluding and zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) in the brain tissue were significantly lower than those in the Sham group [claudin-5 protein (claudin-5/β-actin): 0.67±0.12 vs. 1.45±0.19, occludin protein (occludin/β-actin): 0.48±0.11 vs. 0.99±0.21, ZO-1 protein (ZO-1/β-actin): 0.13±0.03 vs. 0.63±0.12, all P < 0.05]. Conclusion:VILI can induce brain edema and increase blood-brain barrier permeability in rats, which may be related to the down-regulation of tight junction protein expression in the brain tissue.

RESUMEN
Influenza is an acute respiratory infection that seriously harms the world and public health. Because influenza viruses are prone to mutations and difficult to predict, the World Health Organization has been promoting global continuous strengthening of influenza surveillance to monitor the level of influenza activity and epidemic trends in real time. Establishing baselines and thresholds for influenza epidemic helps to gauge the start and severity of influenza seasons. At present, there are various methods for calculating baseline and threshold, such as annual median value, percentile approach, moving epidemic method, and control chart method. This paper will summarize the methods of establishing influenza baseline or threshold at home and abroad, and hope to provide reference for the establishment of baseline or threshold of influenza in China.

Objective To evaluate the lung-protective effect of lung-protective ventilation (LPV) combined with ventilatory mode pressure-controlled ventilation-volume guaranteed (PCV-VG) in elderly patients undergoing one-lung ventilation (OLV).Methods Eighty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients,aged 65-80 yr,with body mass index of 15-28 kg/m2,scheduled for elective radical resection for esophageal cancer performed via video-assisted thoracoscope,were divided into 4 groups (n=20 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),PCV-VG group,LPV group and LPV combined with PCV-VG group (group LPV+PCV-VG).At 20 min after changing the body position during two-lung ventilation (T1),30 min of OLV (T2) and 20 min after restoration of two-lung ventilation (T3),blood samples were collected from the radial artery for blood gas analysis and for determination of peak airway pressure (Ppeak),mean airway pressure (P) and dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn).Alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient,intrapulmonary shunt (Qs/Qt),dead space fraction (Vd/VT) and respiratory index were calculated at T2.Blood samples were collected from the radial artery before induction of anesthesia and at the end of operation for determination of plasma neutrophil elastase (NE) concentrations by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS) was assessed at 1 and 7 days after operation,and the development of pulmonary complications such as respiratory failure,pulmonary atelectasis and pulmonary infection was recorded within 7 days after operation.Results Compared with group C,Ppeak was significantly decreased,and P was increased in group PCV-VG,Ppeak and PaCO2 were significantly increased and pH value,Vd/VT and Qs/Qt were decreased in group LPV,Ppeak,Vd/VT,Qs/Qt,pH value and postoperative CPIS were significantly decreased,and P Cdyn and PaO2 were increased in group LPV+PCV-VG,and the NE concentration at the end of operation was significantly decreased in PCV-VG,LPV and LPV+PCV-VG groups (P<0.05).Compared with group PCV-VG,P Cdyn and PaO2 were significantly increased,and pH value,Qs/Qt,NE concentration at the end of operation and CPIS were decreased in group LPV+PCV-VG (P<0.05).Compared with group LPV,Ppeak,Qs/Qt,NE concentration at the end of operation and CPIS were significantly decreased,and Cdyn was increased in group LPV+PCV-VG (P<0.05).Pulmonary complications such as respiratory failure,pulmonary atelectasis and pulmonary infection were not observed after operation in the four groups.Conclusion LPV combined with PCV-VG can optimize the lung-protective effect in elderly patients undergoing OLV.
