Objective:To examine the relationship between sarcopenia and DNA methylation in the promoter of the growth differentiation factor 15(GDF15)gene in elderly individuals.Methods:This cross-sectional study collected data from 865 elderly individuals aged 65 years and above who underwent physical examination at the Yuetang Town Community Medical Center in Yangzhou City between May and September 2020.The verification set included 431 males and 434 females with an age range of 65-100 years and a mean age of(76.0±5.9)years.The diagnosis of sarcopenia was based on the consensus diagnostic criteria of the Asian Sarcopenia Working Group in 2019.The study included 295 cases in the non-sarcopenia group and 470 cases in the sarcopenia group.The study selected 50 non-sarcopenia patients and 50 age-gender matched sarcopenia patients as the explore set for DNA methylation sequencing of the GDF15 gene.The sequencing results were then verified using the methylation-specific polymerase chain(PCR)method in the verification center.Additionally, serum GDF15 levels were detected using the enzyme-linked immunosoradsorption method.The study analyzed the correlation between GDF15 methylation levels, serum GDF15 levels, and sarcopenia.Results:The study found that individuals with sarcopenia had lower levels of body mass index(BMI), appendicular skeletal muscle mass(ASMI), grip strength, and gait speed in both the discovery and validation sets compared to those without sarcopenia( P<0.05). Additionally, the DNA methylation of GDF15 was found to be lower in the sarcopenic group compared to the non-sarcopenic group[93.7%(79.6%, 98.0%) vs.97.7%(95.3%, 99.0%), Z=-9.294, P<0.01]. The results of the correlation analysis indicate a positive relationship between the methylation level and appendicular skeletal muscle mass( r=0.206, P<0.01), grip strength( r=0.297, P<0.01), and gait speed( r=0.383, P<0.01). Conversely, there was a negative correlation between the methylation level and serum GDF15 level( r=-0.249, P<0.05). The study conducted ROC analysis to determine the predictive ability of GDF15 methylation for sarcopenia found that the area under the curve was 0.700 with a cut-off score of 92.7%.Furthermore, binary regression analysis revealed that low GDF15 methylation( OR=1.136, 95% CI: 1.098~1.175, P<0.01)was linked to a higher risk of sarcopenia, even after adjusting for age, sex, and BMI.The serum GDF15 level was higher in the sarcopenic group compared to the non-sarcopenic group[(0.665±0.432)pg/L vs.(0.465±0.211)pg/L( t=-2.452, P<0.05)]. Additionally, it was observed that the methylation of GDF15 was negatively correlated with the serum GDF15 level( r=-0.249, P<0.05). Conclusions:A low level of GDF15 methylation has been found to be linked with a higher risk of sarcopenia, suggesting that measuring GDF15 methylation could potentially serve as a biomarker for diagnosing sarcopenia.

Objective:To investigate the influence of abnormal blood pressure circadian rhythms and the morning surge on aortic stiffness in elderly patients with isolated systolic hypertension(ISH).Methods:A total of 300 untreated elderly(≥60 years)patients with ISH were enrolled.24-hour ambulatory blood pressure was measured by using a non-invasive portable ambulatory sphygmomanometer with an inflatable cuff.Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV)and the ankle-brachial pressure index(ABI)were measured by using an automated device.Patients were divided into the dipper(n=95), no-dipper(n=177)and extreme dipper(n=28)groups according to the rate of nocturnal blood pressure reduction.They were also divided into the morning surge(n=88)and no morning surge(n=212)groups according to the morning blood pressure surge(MBPS). Differences between the groups were compared.Correlations between the parameters were calculated by partial correlation analyses.The effects on baPWV and ABI were calculated by multiple linear regression analyses.Results:baPWV was higher in the extreme dipper group than in the dipper and no dipper groups[(1 402±234)cm/s vs.(1 467±114)cm/s vs.(1 538±140)cm/s, P<0.01], while ABI values were lower in the extreme dipper group than in the dipper group(0.98±0.10 vs.1.05±0.12, P<0.01)and the no dipper group(0.98±0.10 vs.1.03±0.12, P<0.05). Moreover, baPWV[(1 508±170)cm/s vs.(1 430±163)cm/s, P<0.01]was higher while ABI values(0.98±0.13 vs.1.06±0.11, P<0.01)were lower in the morning surge group than in the no morning surge group.baPWV was positively correlated with daytime Systolic blood pressure(dSBP)( r=0.169, P<0.01), 24 hSBPCV( r=0.143, P<0.05), and MBPS( r=0.157, P<0.01), while ABI was negatively correlated with dSBP( r=-0.146, P=0.011)and MBPS( r=-0.321, P<0.01). Age( P<0.01), dSBP( P<0.05)and 24 h systolic blood pressure variation coefficient( P<0.05)were independent factors for baPWV, while dSBP and MBPS were independent factors for ABI(all P<0.01). Conclusions:Abnormal blood pressure circadian rhythms and the morning surge are associated with increased aortic stiffness in elderly patients with ISH.

METHODS SC was used as a stabilizer for regulating nanoparticles,so that DAZ-SC composite nanoparticles were prepared by anti-solvent precipitation method. The particle size , Zeta-potential,micro-morphology,stability,encapsulation efficiency ,drug loading and in vitro dissolution rate were characterized. Fluorescence spectra ,IR spectra ,FBRM and other methods were used to analyze the interaction mechanism between DAZ and SC. RESULTS The particle size of DAZ-SC composite nanoparticles was (223.7±12.5)nm,and the polydispersity index was 0.274± 0.012. Zeta-potential was -(17.81±1.63)mV(n=3). The stability of nano-suspension was good ,the solid properties of DAZ were greatly improved ,and the dissolution rate was significantly increased. SC was statically quenched under the action of DAZ and the secondary structures of SC were changed. The crystallization process of DAZ was controlled under the action of SC ,and the interaction between DAZ and SC was mainly hydrogen bond and van der Waals force. CONCLUSIONS In this study ,DAZ-SC composite nanoparticles are successfully prepared. In the “bottom-up”technology,the interaction between SC and DAZ caused by hydrogen bond and van der Waals force inhibits the growth and agglomeration of drug crystals .

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (CAEBV) in order to reduce the rates of underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of this disease.Methods:The CAEBV related literatures of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Database and Chongqing VIP since the first literature published (May 1987) until August 29, 2020 were searched. The clinical characteristics, laboratory examinations, outcome and causes of death of CAEBV patients were retrospectively analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed by Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test or Fisher′s exact probability test. Results:A total of 111 patients aged 22.0 (10.0, 39.0) years were included from 46 articles. There were 64 cases (57.7%) in the age ≥18 years group and 47 cases (42.3%) in the age <18 years group. Fever, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, and lymph node enlargement were common clinical manifestations, with incidences of 95.5%(106/111), 84.7%(94/111), 57.7%(64/111) and 56.8%(63/111), respectively. The incidences of rash and hepatomegaly in the age ≥18 years group were 3.1%(2/64) and 45.3%(29/64), respectively, which were both lower than those in patients aged <18 years group (27.7%(13/47) and 74.5%(35/47), respectively), while the incidence of abnormal liver biochemical indexes was higher (45.3%(29/64) vs 23.4%(11/47)). The differences were all statistically significant ( χ2=13.957, 9.436 and 5.643, respectively, all P<0.05). Of the 70 patients with follow-up outcomes, 38(54.3%) died and 32(45.7%) survived. The causes of death included gastrointestinal bleeding, severe infection, respiratory failure, liver failure, etc. The incidences of splenomegaly in the death and survival groups were 92.1%(35/38) and 68.8%(22/32), respectively. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.266, P<0.05). Of 21 death and 17 survival cases in the age <18 years group, 15(71.4%) and two cases were combined hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), respectively, with statistical significance ( χ2=13.527, P<0.01). Of the 90 patients whose HLH-related information was available, 38(42.2%) combined HLH and 52(57.8%) without HLH, with 36.8%(14/38) and 65.4% (34/52) of males, respectively. The difference of gender distribution was statistically significant ( χ2=7.187, P=0.007). The treatment regimens of the 111 CAEBV patients during the course of disease were various, but the detailed information was lacking. Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of CAEBV are diverse. CAEBV can be complicated with fatal complications, lacks of effective treatment, and shows poor prognosis. It is necessary to actively carry out related research to improve the understanding of the disease, and explore effective treatment and reduce mortality.

The expression of the interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF-4) and the IRF-4-binding protein (IBP) in psoriatic skin lesions was investigated. The expression of IRF-4 and IBP in skin lesions of 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris were immunohistochemically dectected. Normal skin from 10 healthy people was used as normal control. The study showed that expression of IRF-4 was increased significantly in keratinocytes and inflammatory cells in the lesions of psoriasis vulgaris than that in the normal control. The detection revealed that IBP expression in keratinocytes, lymphocytes, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands in normal skin was significantly lower than that in the lesions of psoriasis vulgaris (P<0.05). Both IRF-4 and IBP might be involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris.

The effect of siRNA-mediated Sox4 gene silencing on Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway of human malignant melanoma cell line A375 was investigated. Two types of dsRNA targeting Sox4 were constructed and transfected into A375 cells, and untreated cells and cells transfected with scramble RNA were used as blank control and negative control respectively. The expression levels of mRNA and protein of Sox4, Wnt3a, β-catenin and Wnt/β-catenin signaling target gene Survivin were detected after real-time PCR and Western blot respectively. MTT assay was used to measure cell proliferation after Sox4 knockdown. β-catenin/TCF transcription reporter assay was used for assessing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activity. Our results showed that the two types of Sox4 siRNA were transfected into A375 cells successfully. As compared with untreated cells, Sox4 siRNAs had no significant influence on Wnt3a expression, and Sox4 siRNAs led to the decrease of β-catenin at protein level. Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activity was inhibited significantly. As a target of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, Survivin was decreased at both mRNA and protein levels, and cell proliferation was attenuated. Our study suggests that Sox4 may play an important role in Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in human malignant melanoma cells by regulating β-catenin protein level, indicating that Sox4 is involved in the progression of malignant melanoma through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
