RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Acellular vascular scaffolds can mimic the microstructure and function of native blood vessels,but some extracellular matrix loss occurs during their preparation,which affects their hemocompatibility.Therefore,it is necessary to modify them to improve their hemocompatibility. OBJECTIVE:To assess the hemocompatibility of acellular vascular scaffold prepared by Triton-x100/heparin sodium treatment. METHODS:The abdominal aorta was taken from SD rats and randomly divided into control and experimental groups.The control group was treated with Triton-x100 for 48 hours.The experimental group was treated with Triton-x100 for 48 hours and then treated with heparin sodium.The morphology and hydrophilicity of the two groups of acellular vascular scaffolds were detected.The hemocompatibility of the two groups of acellular vascular scaffold was evaluated by recalcification coagulation time test,platelet adhesion test,dynamic coagulation time test,hemolysis test,and complement activation test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy showed that the surface of the two groups of vascular scaffolds was relatively intact,and a large number of fiber filaments appeared on the surface of the scaffolds after decellularity treatment,and the surface microstructure changed significantly.The water contact angle of the two groups of vascular scaffolds was smaller than that of natural vessels(P<0.000 1).There was no significant difference in water contact angle between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)The coagulation time of vascular scaffold was longer in the experimental group than in the control group(P<0.05).The number of platelets attached to the scaffold membrane was less in the experimental group than that in the control group(P<0.000 1).The coagulation index was greater in the experimental group than that in the control group(P<0.01),and the complement level was lower in the experimental group than that in the control group(P<0.001).The hemolysis rate of the two groups was lower than 5%of the national standard.(3)To conclude,acellular scaffold treated with Triton-x100/heparin sodium has excellent hemocompatibility.

RESUMO
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is considered a stress disorder characterized by psychological and gastrointestinal dysfunction. IBS patients not only suffer from intestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, or constipation but also, experience dysthymic disorders such as anxiety and depression. Studies have found that corticotropin-releasing hormone plays a key role in IBS with comorbid dysthymic disorders. Next, we will summarize the effects of corticotropinreleasing hormone from the central nervous system and periphery on IBS with comorbid dysthymic disorders and relevant treatments based on published literatures in recent years.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of Gandouling tablet (GDL) on abnormal lipid metabolism in Wilson's disease (WD) and the correlation between the prediction model of hepatic steatosis and the related indexes of lipid metabolism in WD. MethodA total of 86 patients with abnormal lipid metabolism in WD were selected. The 24-hour urine copper, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), bile acid (BA), γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT), prediction model of hepatic steatosis [hepatic steatosis index (HSI) and Zhejiang University index (ZJU index)], ultrasonic attenuation coefficient imaging (ATT), and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome score were statistically analyzed before treatment. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between TG, TC, LDL-C, ApoB, ALT, AST, ALT/AST, BA, GGT, TCM syndrome score, ATT, and HIS and ZJU. The patients were divided into an observation group and a control group by random number table method, with 43 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with GDL combined with sodium dimercaptopropane sulfonate (DMPS), while the control group was only treated with DMPS as a control. After six courses of treatment, 24-hour urine copper, TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB, HSI, ZJU, ATT, TCM syndrome score, and clinical efficiency before and after treatment were observed and compared between the two groups. The correlation between HSI and ZJU and serum TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB, ALT, AST, ALT/AST, BA, GGT, TCM syndrome scores, and ATT was analyzed. ResultPearson correlation analysis showed that serum TC (r = 0.811), TG (r = 0.826), LDL-C (r = 0.802), ApoB (r = 0.820), ALT (r = 0.497), ALT/AST (r = 0.826), TCM syndrome score (r = 0.716), and ATT (r = 0.736) were positively correlated with HSI (P<0.01), while AST, BA, and GGT had no significant correlation with HSI. TC (r = 0.718), TG (r = 0.765), LDL-C (r = 0.667), ApoB (r = 0.699), ALT/AST (r = 0.403), TCM syndrome score (r = 0.666), and ATT (r = 0.684) were positively correlated with ZJU (P<0.01). ALT, AST, BA, and GGT had no significant correlation with ZJU. The total effective rate of the observation group was 86.05 (37/43), and that of the control group was 72.09% (31/43). The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (Z = -2.301, P<0.05). After treatment, the 24-hour urine copper of the two groups increased significantly. The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, and ApoB were significantly decreased, and the HSI, ZJU, and ATT were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with those in the control group after treatment, the above indexes improved better in the observation group (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionGDL can effectively improve the level of copper and lipid metabolism in patients with WD, with high clinical safety and good clinical application value. The prediction model of hepatic steatosis can effectively reflect the degree of abnormal lipid metabolism in WD.
RESUMO
This study followed up the immune memory after 3-dose revaccination among infants with non-and low-response following primary hepatitis B (HepB) vaccination. About 120 children without self-booster doses were finally included who had anti-HBs<10 mIU/ml (anti-HBs negative) at the time of follow-up, of whom 86 children completed blood sampling and anti-HBs testing. Before the challenge dose, all 86 children were negative for anti-HBs, and the GMC of anti-HBs was<10 mIU/ml. The seropositive conversion rate of anti-HBs was 100% and the GMC of anti-HBs was 886.11 (95%CI: 678.15-1 157.84) mIU/ml after the challenge dose. Compared with those with GMC<7 mIU/ml before the challenge dose, infants with GMC>7 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.82 (0.18-1.46) (P=0.012). Compared with those with GMC<1 000 mIU/ml at primary vaccination, infants with GMC≥1 000 mIU/ml had a higher anti-HBs level after the challenge dose. The β value (95%CI) was 0.78 (0.18-1.38)(P=0.012). The results showed a stronger immune memory was found at 9 years after revaccination among infants with non-and low-response to HepB.

To explore the effect of Internet+diet self-management intervention technology on the blood pressure control of hypertension high-risk population through the intervention of hypertension high-risk population in Haikou City community, so as to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The multi-stage cluster sampling method was used, and 295 hypertension high-risk participants were recruited from 15 communities in Haikou City from July to December 2021. The 15 communities were randomly divided into three groups: blank group, traditional group and Internet plus group by random number table method. The blank group referred to the group (99 participants) that did not take special intervention measures but the routine interventions in accordance with the "National Basic Public Health Service Standards (the Third Edition) Health Education Service Standards". On the basis of the blank group, the traditional group (95 participants) was intervened by giving additional traditional methods such as holding lectures and distributing popular science books. The Internet plus group (101 participants) was given additional Internet measures on the basis of the intervention of the traditional group. After 6 months, questionnaires, laboratory biochemical tests, and physical measurements were conducted. SPSS 25.0 software was applied for data analysis. Measurement data that followed normal distribution were statistically described by using mean±standard deviation, analysis of variance was used for inter group comparisons before intervention, analysis of covariance was used for inter group comparisons after intervention, and Bonferroni adjustment was used for pairwise comparisons between groups. Measurement data that did not follow the Normal distribution were represented by M (Q1, Q3). The rank sum test was used for inter group comparison. The k sample Kruskal Wallis single factor ANOVA was used to compare the distribution between different groups. Counting data were described by composition ratio or rate. Under the premise of balanced comparison between groups before intervention, Chi-squared test was used for inter group comparison after intervention, and Bonferroni adjustment method was used for pairwise comparison between groups. The results showed that a total of 295 participants were included, with males accounting for 35.6% (105) and females accounting for 64.4% (190). The age ranged from 55 to 74 years old, with an average age of (64.69±5.73) years. The number of married accounted for 95.6% (282 participants). There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, family history, education level, occupation, marital status, drinking habits, regular exercise, dietary status, SBP (systolic blood pressure), DBP (diastolic blood pressure), pulse pressure difference, BMI (body mass index), folic acid, and 24-hour urine sodium among the three groups upon enrollment (P values>0.05). After the intervention, the drinking rate was as follows: Internet plus group (29, 28.7%)<traditional group (47, 49.5%)<blank group (66, 66.7%) (χ2=28.948, P<0.001); Regular exercise rate was higher in the Internet plus group (37, 36.6%) than in the traditional group (18, 18.9%) and the blank group (16, 16.2%) (χ2=13.476, P=0.001). After the intervention, compared with the participants in the blank group, the intake of energy, carbohydrate, dietary fiber, sodium and folic acid in the Internet plus group were significantly different (all P<0.05); Compared with the participants in the traditional group, the energy, carbohydrate and dietary fiber intake of the participants in the Internet plus group were significantly different (all P<0.05). After the intervention, the blood pressure levels in the Internet plus group [ SBP: (128.95±6.55) mmHg, DBP: (79.88±5.75) mmHg ] and the traditional group [ SBP: (129.63±8.41) mmHg, DBP: (79.77±7.73) mmHg ] were lower than those in the blank group [ SBP: (132.93±8.41) mmHg, DBP: (82.42±7.76) mmHg ] (SBP: F=9.417, P<0.001; DBP: F=6.967, P=0.001), the 24-hour urinary sodium level in the Internet plus group (143.63±38.58) mmol/24 h was lower than that in the traditional group (163.31±35.67) mmol/24 h and the blank group (154.14±35.52) mmol/24 h (F=11.509, P<0.001). In conclusion, compared with the traditional intervention mode, the "Internet plus diet self-management intervention" mode is more likely to promote the development of a healthy lifestyle for people at high risk of hypertension, effectively improve blood pressure and 24-hour urine sodium level, and facilitate CVD prevention.

Pertussis is an acute, highly infectious respiratory disease caused by Bordetella pertussis, and is one of the leading causes of infant disease and death worldwide. The pertussis vaccine has been used in the expanded program on immunization globally since 1974 and the vaccination coverage remains high. In recent years, the pertussis incidence rate increased, even pertussis outbreaks occurred, in more and more countries or areas after years with low incidence level. The disease burden of pertussis has been seriously underestimated, and the prevention and control of pertussis is facing many challenges. This article reviews the epidemic status of pertussis worldwide, the factors affecting the reemergence of pertussis, and the challenges in the prevention and control to provide a reference for prevention and control of pertussis.

RESUMO
Objective In the patients with calcaneal fractures,the surgical method with intact peroneal tendon sheath was used to treat them,and compared with the traditional surgical method with dynamic retraction of the peroneal tendon,to analyze the influence of the surgical method on the posterior foot movement.Methods A retrospective analysis was made on 60 patients with calcaneal fracture admitted to the Department of Orthopaedics of our hospital from December 2016 to December 2020.The patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical method.The patients in the distraction group received the surgical treatment of traditional dynamic distraction of peroneal tendon(28 cases),and the patients in the preservation group received the surgical treatment of preserving the integrity of peroneal tendon sheath(32 cases).The outcome measures included perioperative indicators,Maryland score of foot function 12 months after surgery,AOFAS score of posterior foot and imaging indicators(Boler Angle and Gissane Angle)12 months after surgery.Results The surgical time(89.34±12.21 minutes)and hospitalization time(5.26±1.47 days)of the retention group were significantly better than those of the traction group[(124.22±11.56)min,(11.59±2.43)d](P<0.05).At the last follow-up,the AOFAS score(70.56±3.62)and Maryland's excellent and good rate(87.5%)of patients in the retention group were better than those in the traction group(81.37±3.58,71.4%)(P<0.05).The difference in imaging indicators between the two groups was relatively small(P>0.05).Conclusion The surgical method of keeping the peroneal tendon sheath intact in the treatment of patients with calcaneal fracture has definite clinical effects,and can also effectively reduce the adverse effects of surgical trauma on posterior foot activity.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the effects of transurethral en-blocresection of bladder tumor(TeURBT)on urination function,serum chitinase protein 40(YKL-40),bladder specific nuclear matrix protein-1(BLCA-1),and p-oxyfossase-1(PON-1)levels in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer(NMIBC).Methods 74 patients with NMIBC admitted to our Hospital from January 2019 to May 2022 were divided into TeURBT group and transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT)group by random lottery,with 37 cases in each group.The effective tumor clearance rate,surgery and urination function indexes were compared between the two groups.Blood samples were collected before surgery,3 months,6 months and 12 months after surgery to determine the levels of serum YKL-40,BLCA-1 and PON-1,and the recurrence rate was analyzed at 12 months of follow-up.Results The effective resection rate of bladder tumor was 100.00%in both groups.The operative time in TeURBT group was significantly longer than that in TURBT group(P<0.05),and the intraoperative blood loss,catheter indwelling/bladder irrigation/hospitalization time in TeURBT group were significantly less than those in TURBT group(P<0.05).Urinary output and maximum urinary flow per second in both groups significantly increased on postoperative day 14(P<0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference in the above indexes between the two groups on postoperative day 14(P>0.05).The levels of serum YKL-40 and BLCA-1 in the two groups at 3,6 and 12 months after surgery significantly decreased(P<0.05),while the level of PON-1 significantly increased(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in serum YKL-40 and PON-1 levels between the two groups at 3 and 6 months after surgery(P>0.05),while serum YKL-40 and BLCA-1 levels in the TeURBT group were significantly lower than those in the TURBT group at 12 months after surgery(P<0.05),and PON-1 levels were significantly higher than those in the TURBT group(P<0.05).The stages in the TeURBT group could be accurately diagnosed after operation,and the postoperative pathological stages were Ta stage in 24 cases and T1 stage in 13 cases.The total incidence of postoperative complications in TeURBT group and cumulative incidence of recurrence in 1-year follow-up were 5.40%,which was significantly lower than 24.32%and 21.62%in TURBT group(P<0.05).Conclusion The effective resection rate of TeURBT and TURBT in the treatment of NMIBC tumor is similar,which can effectively improve the urination function of patients,downregulation of serum YKL-40 and BLCA-1 levels,and up-regulation of PON-1 levels.Compared with TURBT,TeURBT has advantages of less intraoperative blood loss,fewer postoperative complications,faster recovery,and lower recurrence rate.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1(EEF1) family members (EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) based on public databases.Methods We examined EEF1 member expression levels in human LUAD samples via The Cancer Genome Atlas in the UCSC Xena browser and the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium.We analyzed the mRNA and protein levels of EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2 and their correlations with pathological variables via the Mann-Whitney U test.The Kaplan-Meier curves were established to assess the prognostic values of EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2.The single-sample gene set enrichment analysis algorithm was employed to explore the relationship between the expression levels of EEF1 members and tumor immune cell infiltration.Spearman and Pearson correlation analyses were performed to examine the relationship between the expression levels of EEF1 members and those of the genes in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signaling pathway.The immunohistochemical assay was employed to determine the expression levels of EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2 in the LUAD tissue (n=75) and paracancer tissue (n=75) samples.Results The mRNA and protein levels of EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2 showed significant differences between tumor and paracancer tissues (all P<0.001).The patients with high protein levels of EEF1A1 showed bad prognosis in terms of overall survival (P=0.039),and those with high protein levels of EEF1A2 showed good prognosis in terms of overall survival (P=0.012).The influence of the mRNA level of EEF1D on prognosis was associated with pathological characteristics.The expression levels of EEF1 members were significantly associated with the infiltration of various immune cells and the expression of key molecules in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signaling pathway.Conclusion EEF1D,EEF1A1,and EEF1A2 are associated with the progression of LUAD,serving as the candidate prognostic markers for LUAD.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate whether 3D-printed artificial vertebral body can reduce prosthesis subsidence rate for patients with cervical chordomas, through comparing the rates of prosthesis subsidence between 3D printing artificial vertebral body and titanium mesh for anterior spinal reconstruction after total spondylectomy.@*METHODS@#This was a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent surgical treatment for cervical chordoma at our hospital from March 2005 to September 2019. There were nine patients in the group of 3D artificial vertebral body (3D group), and 15 patients in the group of titanium mesh cage (Mesh group). The patients' characteristics and treatment data were extracted from the medical records, including age, gender, CT hounsfield unit of cervical vertebra and surgical information, such as the surgical segments, time and blood loss of surgery, frequency and degree of prosthesis subsidence after surgery. Radiographic observations of prosthesis subsidence during the follow-up, including X-rays, CT, and magnetic resonance imaging were also collected. SPSS 22.0 was used to analysis the data.@*RESULTS@#There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender, age, CT hounsfield unit, surgical segments, time of surgery, blood loss of posterior surgery and total blood loss. Blood loss of anterior surgery was 700 (300, 825) mL in 3D group and 1 500 (750, 2 800) mL in Mesh group (P < 0.05). The prosthesis subsidence during the follow-up, 3 months after surgery, there was significant difference between the two groups in mild prosthesis subsidence (P < 0.05). The vertebral height of the 3D group decreased less than 1 mm in eight cases (no prosthesis subsidence) and more than 1 mm in one case (mild prosthesis subsidence). The vertebral height of the Mesh group decreased less than 1 mm in five cases (no prosthesis subsidence), and more than 1 mm in eight cases (mild prosthesis subsidence). Two patients did not have X-rays in 3 months after surgery. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the prosthesis subsidence rate at the end of 12 months (P < 0.01). The vertebral height of eight cases in the 3D group decreased less than 1 mm (no prosthesis subsidence) and one case more than 3 mm (severe prosthesis subsidence). Four of the 15 cases in the Mesh group decreased less than 1 mm (no prosthesis subsidence), two cases more than 1 mm (mild prosthesis subsidence), and nine cases more than 3 mm (severe prosthesis subsidence). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the prosthesis subsidence rate at the end of 24 months (P < 0.01). The vertebral height of seven cases in the 3D group decreased less than 1 mm (no prosthesis subsidence), one case more than 3 mm (severe prosthesis subsidence), and one case died with tumor. One case in the Mesh group decreased less than 1 mm (no prosthesis subsidence), one case more than 1 mm (mild prosthesis subsidence), 11 case more than 3 mm (severe prosthesis subsidence), one case died with tumor and one lost the follow-up. Moreover, at the end of 12 months and 24 months, there was significant difference between the two groups in severe prosthesis subsidence rate (P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#3D-printed artificial vertebral body for anterior spinal reconstruction after total spondylectomy for patients with cervical chordoma can provide reliable spinal stability, and reduce the incidence of prosthesis subsidence after 2-year follow-up.

This work aimed to investigate the differences of pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of four alkaloids in Ermiao Pills and Sanmiao Pills in normal and arthritic model rats. The rat model of arthritis was established by injecting Freund's complete adjuvant, and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS) in the positive ion multiple reaction monitoring(MRM) mode was used for the determination of four alkaloids in plasma and tissues of normal and arthritic rats after administration of Ermiao Pills and Sanmiao Pills, respectively. The differences in pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of the four active components were compared, and the effect of Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix on the major components of Sanmiao Pills was explored. This study established an UPLC-MS/MS for simultaneous determination of four alkaloids, and the specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and stability of this method all met the requirements. Pharmacokinetics study found that as compared with normal rats, the AUC and C_(max) of phellodendrine, magnoflorine, berberine and palmatine in model rats were significantly decreased after administration of Ermiao Pills, the clearance rate CL/F was significantly increased, and the distribution and tissue/plasma concentration ratio of the four alkaloids in the liver, kidney, and joint were significantly reduced. Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix increased the AUC of phellodendrine, berberine, and palmatine, reduced the clearance rate, and significantly increased the distribution of the four alkaloids in the liver, kidney, and joints in arthritic rats. However, it had no significant effect on the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of the four alkaloids in normal rats. These results suggest that Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix may play a guiding role in meridian through increasing the tissue distribution of effective components in Sanmiao Pills under arthritis states.

Kounis syndrome is an acute coronary syndrome associated with mast cell and platelet activation in the case of allergy or allergic injury. This case of Kounis syndrome type Ⅱ patients with myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest is rare. The patient came to the clinic because of wasp sting. During the treatment, he had cardiac arrest. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation, anti allergy, antithrombotic and coronary revascularization, his condition improved. After discharge, he was followed up regularly. After 1 month and 1 year follow-up, the patient had no chest pain, chest tightness, discomfort and allergic reaction.
RESUMO
Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) complicated with optic neuritis (ON).Methods:The clinical data of a patient with GBS complicated with ON, who admitted to the Department of Neurology, the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University in December 2021, were collected, including demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms and signs, laboratory and electrophysiological data, and results of fundus color films. The patients with GBS complicated with ON reported in the literature were also reviewed.Results:A 40-year-old female patient with GBS was diagnosed by the results of electromyography and cerebrospinal fluid tests combining with the history and signs, who was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin on the 3rd day after onset. On the 8th day, her muscle strength improved significantly. However, on the 12th day, the visual field darkened, and on the 19th day, the vision decreased significantly (oculus dexter visual acuity 0.2, oculus sinister visual acuity 0.1 +1) with bilateral papilloedema, a relative afferent pupillary defect and delayed P100 response of the visual evoked potential. Obvious abnormality was not noted in optic nerve magnetic resonance imaging. Thus ON was diagnosed and treated with pulse methylprednisolone therapy. After 8 days of treatment, the visual acuity was completely recovered and there was no abnormality in the ocular fundus. A total of 28 cases of GBS complicated with ON (including the present patient) were reported in the literature. The age of onset was mostly 20-60 years, and there was no gender preference. Mycoplasma pneumoniae was the most common premorbid pathogen and was identified in 7 of the 10 cases in which the causative agent was described. ON usually involved both sides, and 21 of 28 patients had bilateral optic nerves involved. GBS preceded ON or both occurred simultaneously in the majority of patients; GBS preceded ON in 14 of 28 patients, and both occurred simultaneously in 10 of 28 patients. All patients responded well to immunotherapy, and vision was completely recovered in 20 patients. Conclusions:GBS complicated with ON is rare. Attention should be paid to the loss of vision in patients with GBS. Relevant examinations should be completed as soon as possible and immunotherapy should be given.
RESUMO
objectiveTo explore the specific molecular mechanism of neuronal apoptosis induced by ATM inactivation. MethodsCGNs matured 7 days in vitro were cultured 8 h with 25 K, 5 K or 25 K medium containing ATM-specific inhibitors (Ku55933, 10 µmol/L; Ku60019, 15 µmol/L) for Hoechst stain and apoptosis analysis, or cultured for different lengths of time (2, 4, 8 h) to detect the protein expression levels of ATM, caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-3 by Western blotting. ATM and GADD45α specific siRNA was transfected into C6 cells and CGNs, and its interference efficiency was verified by q-PCR and Western blotting. CGNs matured for 5 days in vitro were transfected with ATM specific siRNA and pCMV-EGFP by calcium phosphate for 48 h, Hoechst staining and apoptosis analysis were performed. CGNs matured for 7 days in vitro were treated with 25 K medium containing ATM specific inhibitors for 8 h, transcriptome sequencing, differential expression gene identification and pathway enrichment analysis were performed. CGNs matured for 5 days in vitro were co-transfected with GADD45α specific siRNA and pCMV-EGFP by calcium phosphate for 48 h, then treated with 5 K or 25 K medium containing 15 µmol/L Ku6 for 8 h. Hoechst staining and apoptosis analysis were performed. ResultsCompared with the 25 K, CGNs nuclear pyknosis rate, cleaved Caspase-3 and ATM protein expression level were increased in the 5 K and ATM-specific inhibitor groups. The mRNA and protein expression levels of ATM and GADD45α were effectively reduced after transfection of ATM and GADD45α specific siRNA in C6 cells and CGNs. Compared with control, CGNs transfected with ATM specific siRNA showed a higher nuclear pyknosis rate. Totally 835 genes were identified to be up-regulated and 848 genes to be down-regulated in the Ku55933 treatment group; 454 genes were identified to be up-regulated and 314 genes to be down-regulated in the Ku6 treatment group; 274 genes were co-up regulated in the Ku5 and Ku60019 treatment groups, while 179 genes were co-down-regulated in the Ku5 and Ku6 treatment groups and the expression of ATM downstream target GADD45α was upregulated. The enrichment results showed that TNF signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway and Apoptosis signaling pathway were significantly enriched. Compared with control, mRNA and protein expression levels of GADD45α were increased in inhibitor treatment and 5 K, while knocking down GADD45α resulted in a decrease in nuclear pyknosis rate in the Ku60019 and 5 K treatment group. ConclusionLoss of ATM activity induces GADD45α-dependent cerebellar granular neuronal apoptosis.
RESUMO
Aim To analyze the molecular mechanism of rhubarb in the treatment of aeute pancreatitis ( AP) by network pharmacology and molecular docking.Methods TCMSP,TCMID and Swiss target predic¬tion databases were used to screen the active compo¬nents and targets of rhubarb,and genecards and OMIM databases were used to screen the targets of AP.Then the active ingredient drug target network of rhubarb and theactive ingredient disease target network of rhubarb for AP were constructed by using Cytoscape software.PPI network was constructed in string database, and go and KEGG enrichment analysis was performed in metascape database and R language.Finally,molecular docking was used to verify the possibility of binding the core active components to the core target.Results A total of 192 active components and 1 882 AP targets were obtained.The first three active components of rhubarb in the treatment of AP were beta sitosterol, aloe emodin and eupatin.The core target of rhubarb in the treatment of AP was hsp90aal.Go enrichment analysis focused on reaction to toxic substances, while KEGG enrichment analysis was significantly enriched in p53 signaling pathway closely related to AP.Molecular docking showed good binding and stable conformation.Conclusions Rhubarb can affect the expression of AP related genes and proteins through p53 signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting cell apoptosis and allevia¬ting the inflammatory injury of AP.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of cerebroprotein hydrolysate (CH) -Ⅰ on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats and its mechanism.Methods:Eighty adult healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, CH-Ⅰ intervention group and cerebrolysin (CBL) positive control group. The model of ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced by temporarily occluding the left middle cerebral artery with suture-occluded method. The CH-Ⅰ and CBL groups intraperitoneally injected with CH-Ⅰ and CBL at 0, 3, 6 and 12 h after reperfusion at the dose of 20 mg/kg. The sham operation group and the model group were injected with the same volume of normal saline. At 24 h after reperfusion, the behavior changes of the rats were detected by the modified neurological severity score (mNSS). The volume of cerebral infarction was detected by TTC staining. The morphology and structure of neurons in ischemic cortex were observed by Nissl staining. The apoptosis of neurons in ischemic cortex was detected by TUNEL staining. The expression changes of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (pERK) 1/2, phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (pMEK) 1/2, phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (pCREB) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the ischemic cortex were detected by Western blot.Results:At 24 h after reperfusion, the mNSS score and cerebral infarct volume in the model group were significantly higher and larger than those in the sham group (all P<0.001). The mNSS scores and cerebral infarct volumes in the CH-Ⅰ and CBL groups were significantly reduced compared with those in the model group (all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the CH-Ⅰ group and the CBL group. Nissl and TUNEL staining showed that the degenerative cell index and apoptotic cell index in the CH-Ⅰ group were significantly lower than those in the model group (all P<0.01), but there were no significant difference between the CH-Ⅰ group and the CBL group. Western blot analysis showed that compared with the sham operation group, the pMEK1/2, pERK1/2 and pCREB expressions in ischemic cortex were significantly enhanced and the BDNF expression was significantly attenuated in the model group ( P<0.05). Compared with the model group, pMEK1/2, pERK1/2, and pCREB expressions in the CH-Ⅰ group were significantly decreased (all P<0.05), and the BDNF expression was significantly increased ( P<0.05). Conclution:CH-Ⅰ can reduce cerebral infarct volume and improve neurological function, and its mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of the MEK-ERK-CREB pathway as well as the enhancement of BDNF expression.
