Résumé
Cholestatic liver disease (CLD) is a group of liver diseases caused by various reasons, such as abnormal bile metabolism, blocked outflow, and bile duct injury, and the major causes of CLD include drugs, poisons, immunity, genetics, obstruction, infection, and tumor. Cholestasis is a common pathological change in CLD; however, the site, histopathology, and ultrastructure of cholestasis due to different etiologies are relatively specific. According to the etiology, this article elaborates on the pathological characteristics of CLD such as autoimmune cholangitis, inherited metabolic liver disease, and large bile duct disease and introduces the differential diagnosis of other types of CLD, in order to improve the understanding of CLD pathology and facilitate accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Objective@#As a gate-keeper enzyme link, pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha (PDHA1) functions as a key regulator during glycolysis and the mitochondrial citric acid cycle, which has been reported in several tumors. Nevertheless, the effects of PDHA1 on biological behaviors and metabolism remain unclear in cervical cancer (CC) cells. The study aims to explore the PDHA1 effects on glucose metabolism in CC cells and its possible mechanism. @*Methods@#We first determined the expression levels of PDHA1 and activating protein 2 alpha (AP2α) as a PDHA1 potential transcription factor. The effects of PDHA1 in vivo were evaluated through a subcutaneous xenograft mouse model. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) labeling assay, Transwell invasion assay, wound healing assay, Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay and flow cytometry were performed in CC cells. Oxygen consumption rate (OCR) levels were determined to reflect aerobic glycolysis level in gastric cancer cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was measured with 2′, 7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate kit. The relationship between PDHA1 and AP2α was examined by conducting chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and electrophoretic mobility shift assay. @*Results@#In CC tissues and cell lines, PDHA1 was downregulated, while AP2α was upregulated. Overexpression of PDHA1 remarkedly inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of CC cells, and tumor growth in vivo, as well as promoted OCR, apoptosis and ROS production. Moreover, AP2α directly bound to PDHA1 within suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 promoter region to negatively regulate PDHA1 expression level. What is more, PDHA1 knockdown could effectively reversed the AP2α silencing-mediated suppressive effects on cell proliferation, invasion, migration, and the promotive effects of AP2α knockdown on OCR, apoptosis and ROS production. @*Conclusions@#Our findings demonstrate that AP2α negatively regulated PDHA1 via binding to PDHA1 gene promoter to promote malignant CC cell behaviors, which may provide a potential approach for CC therapeutics.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of quercetin in regulating chondrocyte extracellular matrix metabolism and inflammatory response in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) from the perspective of autophagy. MethodChondrocytes were extracted and cultured, and the primary cells were identified by immunofluorescence staining with collagen Ⅱ. The chondrocytes induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were divided into a control group (without any treatment), a model group (10 mg·L-1 LPS treatment for 48 h), and low-, medium-, and high-dose quercetin group (10 mg·L-1 LPS treatment for 48 h combined with 50, 100, and 150 mmol·L-1 quercetin for 24 h). The inhibitory effects of LPS (2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 mg·L-1) on the proliferation of chondrocytes for different periods (24, 48, 72 h) were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). The effects of quercetin (50, 100, 150, 200 mmol·L-1) on the LPS-induced proliferation of chondrocytes for different periods (12, 24, and 48 h) were investigated. The expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ) and ubiquitin-binding protein p62 was detected by Western blot. LPS-induced chondrocytes were treated with 3-methyladenine (3-MA). The resultant cells were divided into a control group (without any treatment), a model group (10 mg·L-1 LPS), a quercetin group (model group + 100 mmol·L-1 quercetin), a 3-MA group (model group + 100 μmol·L-1 3-MA), and a 3-MA + quercetin group (model group + 100 μmol·L-1 3-MA + 100 mmol·L-1 quercetin, specifically, LPS for 48 h, 3-MA for 2 h, and then quercetin for 24 h). The content of interleukin (IL)-1β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) was detected by Western blot. ResultCollagen Ⅱ immunofluorescence staining showed that the extracted cells were consistent with the characteristics of chondrocytes. As revealed by CCK-8, the optimum concentration of LPS was 10 mg·L-1 with an action time of 48 h, and the optimum concentration of quercetin was 100 mmol·L-1 with an action time of 24 h. Western blot results showed that compared with the control group, the model group showed decreased expression of LC3Ⅱ (P<0.01) and increased expression of p62 (P<0.01). The expression of LC3Ⅱ in the quercetin groups was higher than that in the control group (P<0.01), especially in the medium-dose quercetin group. The p62 expression in the quercetin groups was lower than that in the control group (P<0.01), especially in the medium-dose quercetin group. Compared with the control group, the model group showed increased expression of MMP-13 (P<0.05) and decreased expression of TIMP1 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the quercetin groups and the 3-MA + quercetin group showed decreased expression of MMP-13 (P<0.05, P<0.01), especially the quercetin groups, and increased expression of TIMP1 (P<0.01), especially the quercetin groups. Morphological changes in chondrocytes under the inverted microscope showed that quercetin could restore the morphology of damaged chondrocytes. CCK-8 showed that compared with the control group, the model group showed inhibited chondrocyte proliferation (P<0.01), and compared with the model group, the quercetin groups and the 3-MA + quercetin group showed promoted chondrocyte proliferation (P<0.01), especially the quercetin groups. ELISA results showed that IL-1β and TNF-α levels in the model group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01), and the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the quercetin groups and the 3-MA + quercetin group were lower than those in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the decrease in the quercetin groups was the most significant. ConclusionQuercetin can promote LPS-induced chondrocyte proliferation, regulate chondrocyte extracellular matrix synthesis and metabolic balance, inhibit the inflammatory response, and restore chondrocyte function. The mechanism may be related to the activation of autophagy by quercetin.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction ( BYHWD) on PC12 cell apoptosis induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation ( OGD) and to screen out the main ingredients of BYHWD on protecting PC12 cell from injury induced by OGD. Methods Seven herbs of BYHWD were selected as the influencing factors, and they were Radix Astragali, Radix Paeoniae Rubra, the carda part of Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Pheretima Asiatica, Rhizoma Chuanxiong, Semen Persicae, and Flos carthami. Two levels were designed for each factor, and the experiment was arranged according to L8 ( 27) orthogonal test table. Apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by OGD was detected by serum pharmacology method and flow cytometry techniques. With apoptotic rate as the evaluation index, visual analysis and variance analysis were used for the comparison of apoptosis of PC12 cells in the blank control group ( oxygen + sugary medium + blank serum) , model group (oxygen-glucose-free medium + blank serum) and drug groups (oxygen-glucose-free medium +serum containing BYHWD or the separate recipe of BYHWD ) . Results Compared with the blank control group, apoptotic rate was increased in PC12 cells of the model group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Compared with the model group, the apoptotic rate was decreased in BYHWD group, and the differences was statistically significant (P<0.01) . The results of orthogonal analysis showed that Semen Persicae, Flos carthami and Radix Paeoniae Rubra were the main active ingredients of BYHWD on depressing apoptosis of PC12 cell induced by OGD ( P<0.01). The apoptotic rate of serum containing the prescription with Radix Paeoniae Rubra was lower than that of the prescription without Radix Paeoniae Rubra. Conclusion BYHWD could inhibit OGD-induced PC12 cell apoptosis, and Radix Paeoniae Rubra is the main active herb on depressing apoptosis in BYHWD.

Objective To study the preventive effect and mechanism of aesculin on intestinal mucosa in rats with experimental ulcerative colitis (UC) . Methods Forty specific-pathogen free SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, salicylazosulfapyridine (SASP, 600 mg/kg) group and aesculin (EH, 100 mg/kg) group, 10 in each group. Rats in model group, SASP group and EH group were given enema with trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid ( TNBS, 100 mg/kg) for the establishment of UC model. The rats in SASP group and EH group were given gastric gavage of SASP and aesculin respectively. At the end of experiment, the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha ( TNF-α) and interleukin 10 ( IL-10) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . The general state, histological features of intestinal mucosa and serum TNF-αand IL-10 levels of rats in each group were compared. Results Aesculin significantly improved the general state and relieved the inflammation of the colonic mucosa of UC rats. The disease activity index ( DAI) scores and tissue damage index (TDI) scores in the model group were significantly higher than those in the normal group ( P<0.01) . The DAI scores and TDI scores in the medication groups were significantly lower than those in the model group (P<0.01) . The serum TNF-αlevel was significantly higher and IL-10 level was significantly lower in the model group than the normal group ( P<0.01) . After treatment, TNF-α was decreased and IL-10 was increased in SASP group and EH group as compared with the model group (P<0.01) . Conclusion Aesculin has certain therapeutic effect on TNBS-induced UC in rats through significantly relieving the symptoms of UC rats. The mechanism may be related with the inhibition of TNF-α secretion and the increase of IL-10 expression, and then improving the disorder of intestinal immune function.

Objective To compared different fixation methods for acetabular fractures involving the quadrilateral plate using a finite element model of the acetabulum.Methods A model of acetabular fractures with quadrilateral plate involved was developed in the finite element software and processed in Hypermesh V10.0 to generate internal fixation with dual-column titanium plate (Group A),anterior special titanium moulding plate plus quadrilateral screws (Group B),and anterior special titanium moulding plate plus quadrilateral screws combined with posterior column screws (Group C).Pelvic stress in sitting and standing positions were simulated in sequence with constraint of tuber nodes and inferior femur.Maximum stress and displacement of the acetabulum and displacement of nodes on fracture lines were measured after a force of 600 N was applied to S1 verterbrae in line with the direction of gravity in sitting and standing positions.Results In sitting position,the maximum stress and displacement of the acetabulum exhibited a sequence of Group C (9.47,1.08) < Group B (19.84,1.11) < Group A (29.73,1.14).Moreover,the same result was found in standing position with Group C (9.62,1.09) < Group B (12.18,1.10) < Group A (13.28,1.13).Mean displacement of nodes on fracture lines ranked in order of Group C < Group B < Group A (P > 0.05).Conclusions The finite element model can reflect the distribution of pelvic stress effectively.Anterior special titanium moulding plate plus quadrilateral screws combined with posterior column screws provide favorable biomechanical stability in treatment of acetabular fractures involving the quadrilateral area.
Résumé
Many previous studies have shown that auditory cortical neurons are sensitive to sound spatial information, however, the mechanism of sound spatial coding is still not fully understood. Until now, detail studies on sound spatial coding have not been reported in the rat primary auditory cortex. Using electrophysiological technique, spatial response areas of 151 neurons in the rat primary auditory cortex were investigated. The relationships between spike counts and average first-spike latencies in the spatial response areas were analyzed. The results showed that, the majority (52.32%) of cortical neurons exhibited contralateral preference in the frontal auditory space whereas other neurons exhibited ipsilateral preference (18.54%) and midline preference (18.54%), and only a few neurons were included in the category of omnidirection (3.31%) and complex (7.28%). For the majority of cortical neurons, the arithmetic center of the preferred spatial area were distributed in the up and middle portion of the contralateral space relative to the recording side. Most neurons responded strongly to stimuli from their preferred space with shorter average first-spike latencies, and responded weakly to stimuli from non-preferred space with longer average latencies. In the spatial response area, the spike counts were negatively correlated with average first-spike latencies. The auditory cortex might use the information of both spike counts and average response time to code sound spatial information.

BACKGROUND: Trigeminal ganglion percutaneous puncture is one of the methods for the therapy of primary trigeminal neuralgia. The difficulties in percutaneous puncture technique and operation can lead accidental injury and some serious complications. The application of DZY-C trigeminal nerve stereoguide in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia has the features of high accuracy in puncture and low complications, which can reduce the chances of accidental injury to surrounding vessels and nerves.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the therapeutic effects of DZY-C trigeminal nerve stereoguide in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.DESIGN: A before-and-after experimental study based on patients.SETTING: Department of cerebral surgery of a municipal hospital of tradi tional Chinese medicine and a municipal hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Ninety patients including 39 male and 51 female patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia aged between 21 and 90 years old were selected from outpatient or inpatient department of Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between 2001 and 2003.INTERVENTIONS: Glycerine was injected into trigerminal ganglion of each patient through percutaneous puncture under the guidance of DZY-C trigeminal nerve stereoguide. Therapeutic effects were evaluated by visual analogue scale(VAS) before and 30 minutes after the treatment.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Results of therapeutic effects.RESULTS: Ninety patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia received trigeminal ganglion puncture with the application of DZY-C trigeminal nerve stereoguide. All punctures succeeded with one shot. After the injection of glycerine, the original trigeminal neuralgia disappeared in all 90 cases with the good and excellent rate of 100%.CONCLUSION: Trigeminal nerve stereoguide(DZY-C model) has the features of reasonable structural design, easy surgical operation, agile adjustment, less tissue injury, and safe manipulation, which can significantly eliminate trigeminal neuralgia.
Résumé
BACKGROUND: After reviewing the literature, the author found that most of the epidemiological data related to cancer pain was reported by physicians from the point of view of treatment, or of patients' response to the treatment. Although the nurses in oncology department are most direct participants in the cancer pain management, there is less investigation about the nurses' knowledge, attitudes to and skills of cancer pain management.OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this investigation was to provide information so as to suggest the nursing managers and educators in specifically propagating and disseminating the knowledge of cancer pain management.DESIGN: A sampled investigation.SETTING: Integrated Medicine Ward, College of Clinical Oncology,Peking University.PARTICIPANTS: The participants of this investigation were 128 nurses who took part in the National Tumor Care Academic Exchanges and Seminar Conference held in June 1998.METHODS: This investigation was carried out through a survey questionnaire and the questionnaire was designed on the basis of the Cancer Analgesics Questionnaire (for nurses use only) established by the Oncology Profession Committee of Chinese Nursing Association in 1993, furthermore,suggestions from experts were adopted.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①The perception about "three-step analgesic ladder";②currently most commonly used analgesics in clinical;③assessment methods for cancer pain④knowledge of being addicted to analgesics⑤attitude of nursing staff to cancer pain management.RESULTS: The number of those who could correctly designate the relationship of three steps and pain intensity was 82(64.0% ). Only one person could correctly write down the contents of three steps analgesic ladder (0.7%) . Physician's orders for analgesics for cancer pain in the responders' hospitals were classified into the following types: temporary order:54.0%; when necessary, 38.0%; long-term order, 24.0%. But none of the nurses could mark correctly the range of mild, moderate and severe grade on the scale. Only 49.2% (63/128) of the nurses considered that "The pain scale should be determined according to the cancer patients' self-perception to the pain intensity(chief complaint)" . Among the responders, only 12.5% (16/128) of them accepted that "the incidence of addiction occurred as a result of analgesics used for pain control is less than 1% ". Only 26. 5% (34/128) of the responders could distinguish the concepts of tolerance, physical dependence, and addiction.CONCLUSION: From the results of the investigation, we can see that, the nursing professionals do not have sufficient knowledge about "three-step analgesic ladder". The popularization of related knowledge among nurses has been delayed severely. Nurses will obtain the knowledge of cancer pain management by clinical experience instead of in regular ways. The attitude of nursing personnel to cancer pain treatment is one of the important factors that affect the pain management. The frontline nurses should master the pharmacological characteristics of opioids so as to explain it to the patients and their relations distinctly. Nurses should bring into play a more powerful action in reducing the "addiction-phobia" due to their professional characteristics. We suggest that the latest new progress in cancer pain treatment should be incorporated into the normal textbooks on the management of cancer pain. We also propose that the methods of cancer pain treatment,contents of the principle of drug prescription be included in the training of a medical care personnel of oncology professional before entering into clinic.
