Objective To investigate the effects of long noncoding RNA H19 on lipid accumulation of macrophages under high fat stress and its mechanism. Methods Human THP-1 cells-derived macrophages were incubated with ox-LDL, and the effects of H19 siRNA intervention on lipid accumulation was observed. The THP-1 cells were divided into control group (conventional culture), ox-LDL group, siRNA negative control (NC siRNA) combined with ox-LDL treatment group, and H19 siRNA combined with ox-LDL treatment group. Oil red O staining was used to determine the lipid accumulation in cells, and cholesterol concentration was analyzed by enzymatic method; ATP assay kit for detecting celluar ATP content; colorimetry was used to detect the levels of oxidative stress indicators and ELISA was used to detect the levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in the cell supernatant. Western blot analysis was used to detect the protein expression of ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) and nuclear factor κB p-p65 (NF-κB p-p65). Results Knockdown H19 significantly inhibited intracellular lipid accumulation, decreased total cholesterol (TC) and cholesterol ester (CE) content, and decreased CE/TC ratio. Knockdown H19 significantly alleviated cell damage including an increase in ATP content, a decrease in oxidative stress levels and a decrease in MCP-1 levels, which caused by high-fat stress. H19 siRNA upregulated expression of ABCA1, PPARα and PGC-1α in THP-1 derived macrophages, downregulated NF-κB signal pathway. Conclusion Knockdown H19 upregulates PGC-1α expression in THP-1 cells and downregulates NF-κB pathway, which promotes cholesterol reverse transport, reduces inflammatory reaction and inhibits lipid accumulation.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms by which silence information regulator (SIRT) 2 and glutaminase (GLS) in the amygdala regulate social behaviors in autistic rats.@*METHODS@#Rat models of autism were established by maternal sodium valproic acid (VPA) exposure in wild-type rats and SIRT2-knockout ( SIRT2 -/-) rats. Glutamate (Glu) content, brain weight, and expression levels of SIRT2, GLS proteins and apoptosis-associated proteins in rat amygdala at different developmental stages were examined, and the social behaviors of VPA rats were assessed by a three-chamber test. Then, lentiviral overexpression or interference vectors of GLS were injected into the amygdala of VPA rats. Brain weight, Glu content and expression level of GLS protein were measured, and the social behaviors assessed.@*RESULTS@#Brain weight, amygdala Glu content and the levels of SIRT2, GLS protein and pro-apoptotic protein caspase-3 in the amygdala were increased in VPA rats, while the level of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 was decreased (all P<0.01). Compared with the wild-type rats, SIRT2 -/- rats displayed decreased expression of SIRT2 and GLS proteins in the amygdala, reduced Glu content, and improved social dysfunction (all P<0.01). Overexpression of GLS increased brain weight and Glu content, and aggravated social dysfunction in VPA rats (all P<0.01). Knockdown of GLS decreased brain weight and Glu content, and improved social dysfunction in VPA rats (all P<0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The glutamate circulatory system in the amygdala of VPA induced autistic rats is abnormal. This is associated with the upregulation of SIRT2 expression and its induced increase of GLS production; knocking out SIRT2 gene or inhibiting the expression of GLS is helpful in maintaining the balanced glutamate cycle and in improving the social behavior disorder of rats.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics and genetic characteristics of children with ATP sensitive potassium passage (K ATP-HI). Methods:Forty-five children with genetically confirmed K ATP-HI and their families admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital of Capital Medical University between February 2002 and December 2018 were selected as the study subjects. A detailed retrospective analysis of the patient's clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment process, disease-causing gene carrying status and later follow-up data was performed. ABCC8/KCNJ11 gene was sequenced by second-generation sequencing technology. Results:Among 45 children with K ATP-HI, 34 cases (75.6%) were neonatal onset, the first symptoms of 21 cases (46.7%) were convulsions. 39 cases had been treated with diazoxide, including 12 cases (30.8%) with good efficacy, 16 cases (41%) with poor efficacy and 11 cases with uncertain efficacy. Octreotide was further applied in 18 patients with uncertain or ineffective efficacy after diazoxide treatment, and 13 cases (72.2%) were effective, 3 cases were ineffective, and 2 cases were uncertain. 10 CHI patients who were ineffective to drug treatment or had clearly focal lesions confirmed by 18F-dopa positron emission by computed tomography ( 18F-DOPA PET) scans had undergone surgical treatment, 8 of which underwent partial pancreatectomy and blood glucose returned to normal after the operation; the other 2 cases underwent subtotal pancreatectomy and both had secondary diabetes after operation. Among 45 children with K ATP-HI, 1 case carried both ABCC8 and KCNJ11 mutations, 10 cases carried ABCC8 compound heterozygous mutations, and the remaining 34 cases carried ABCC8/KCNJ11 single genetic mutation. Among them, 21 cases had paternal inheritance, and 3 cases had maternal inheritance, 6 cases were identified with de novo mutations. Conclusions:Diazoxide treatment was ineffective for most K ATP-HI children, but octreotide had a higher effective rate. Partial pancreatectomy for focal type patients had a higher cure rate, and there was a risk of secondary diabetes after subproximal pancreatectomy, so it was very important to clarify the histological type of children before surgery. ABCC8 gene mutations and KCNJ11 gene mutations were the main pathogenic genes of K ATP-HI. Among patients carrying mutations in single ABCC8 or KCNJ11 gene mutation, K ATP-HI inherited by paternity were the majority. Some K ATP-HI children can relieve the hypoglycemia symptoms by themselves.

A male patient aged 1 year and 8 months with type 2 spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia with joint laxity (SEMDJL2) was reported. The clinical characteristics included short stature, flat middle face, hypotonia, limb joint relaxation, hyperextension of metacarpophalangeal articulation, etc. In addition, the patient had a history of congenital laryngeal stridor. Thus, SEMDJL2 was determined according to the above symptoms and medical history. Sanger sequencing showed that the child carried a c.443C>T missense mutation in the KIF22 gene, which resulted in an amino acid variation namely p.Pro148Leu. This phenotype was preliminarily determined as a pathogenic mutation. Therefore, it is suggested that next-generation sequencing genetic testing could be helpful for genetic diagnosis in children with congenital laryngeal stridor, systemic joint relaxation, and excessive joint extension.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) in the treatment of complex lumbar disc herniation (LDH).Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 122 patients with LDH who underwent PELD from October 2015 to June 2019 in department of orthopedics, Beijing Chui Yang Liu Hospital was performed. There were 71 males and 51 females. According to whether lumbar disc herniation was a simple non migrated type, the patients were divided into control group ( n=85) and complex group ( n=37). The age, length of stay, operative approach, operation time, the bleeding volume, operative segments, perioperative complications, and excellent and good rate of 3 months after operation were recorded. Follow-up visit was performed by regular outpatient visit for 3 to 36 months. Before and after surgery, 3 days, 1 month, and 3 months after surgery, the Oswestry disability index (ODI) and modified MacNab criteria were used to evaluate the effect of surgery. The measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), and the comparison between groups was performed by ANOVA analysis, the count data were expressed as percentage (%), and the comparison between groups was performed by χ2 test or Fisher test, the rank grouping data were performed by Mann-Whitney U non-parametric test. Results:The age of patients in complex group [(63.0±15.9) years] was older than that in control group [(48.7±16.3 years] ( t=2.289, P=0.030), and the length of stay in complex group [(13.0±6.9) d] was longer than that in control group [(8.2±4.3) d] ( t=2.384, P=0.024). There were no significant differences of the operative approach between the two groups ( χ2=0.420, P=0.517). Compared with the control group [(59.0±25.0) min, (16.3±10.9) mL], the operation time of the complex group [(87.0±29.2) min] was longer ( t=2.737, P=0.011), and the bleeding volume [(63.5±52.5) mL] was more ( t=3.925, P=0.001). There were no significant differences of the operative segments between the two groups ( χ2=0.356, P=0.837). The incidence of operation related complications in the complex group (13.5%, 5/37) was significantly higher than that in the control group (2.4%, 2/85) ( χ2=5.937, P=0.026). There were no significant differences in the excellent and good rate between the two groups at 3 months after operation ( U = 1 398.000, P=0.106). The preoperative ODI score of the complex group [(86.6±8.8) scores] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(76.1±7.7) scores]( t=3.359, P=0.002). The ODI score of the two groups decreased significantly. There were significant differences ( t=18.683, P=0.001) between the preoperative [(76.1±7.7) scores] and 3 d postoperative [(36.6±7.5) scores] in the control group. There were significant differences ( t=7.365, P=0.001) between the 3 d postoperative [(36.6±7.5) scores] and 1 month postoperative [(15.0±10.8) scores] in the control group. There were significant differences ( t=4.524, P=0.001) between the 1 month postoperative [(15.0±10.8) scores] and 3 month postoperative [(10.4±12.7) scores] in the control group. There were significant differences ( t=9.923, P=0.001) between the preoperative [(86.6±8.8) scores] and 3d postoperative [(40.1±11.0) scores] in the complex group. There were significant differences ( t=3.619, P=0.006) between the 3d postoperative [(40.1±11.0) scores] and 1 month postoperative [(18.2±15.1) scores] in the complex group. There were significant differences ( t=5.966, P=0.001) between the 1 month postoperative [(18.2±15.1) scores] and 3 month postoperative [(12.7±14.5) scores] in the complex group. Conclusions:PELD technology can treat complex LDH. Compared with simple non migrated LDH, although the operation time is longer, the amount of intraoperative bleeding is more and the incidence of postoperative complications is higher, there is no difference in ODI scores, excellent and good rate. The clinical effect is similar to that of simple non migrated LDH.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of percutaneous coablation nucleoplasty (PCNP) in the treatment of discogenic low back pain (DLBP).Methods:From March 2015 to March 2019, the clinical data of 97 single segment DLBP patients with PCNP admitted to orthopaedic department of Beijing Chui Yang Liu hospital were analyzed retrospectively. They were divided into PCNP group ( n=43) and control group ( n=54). The sex proportion, age, medical history, length of hospital stay, follow-up time, operation time, responsibility segment, Pfirrmann classification and complications were recorded. 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after the operation, the routine outpatient reexamination and follow-up were conducted for 6-36 months. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by numeric rating scale (NRS) and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) before, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after the operation. Measurement data were presented by Mean± SD, t test was used for comparison between groups, and analysis of variance of repeated measurement data was used for comparison of NRS score and RMDQ score before and after treatment. The counting data were expressed by percentage, χ2 test or Fisher precision test was used for comparison between groups, and Mann-Whitney rank sum test was used for comparison between groups of follow-up time and hierarchical grouping data. Statistical software SPSS 20.0 was used to process the data, P< 0.05 was statistically significant. Results:The average operation time of PCNP patients was (36.3±13.2) min (15 to 65 min), and no complications occurred. After treatment, the NRS score and RMDQ score of the two groups decreased significantly( F组内=26.000, P=0.001; F组内=26.000, P=0.001), and the NRS score and RMDQ score of the PCNP group decreased more significantly( F组间=5.666, P=0.024; F组间=4.261, P=0.048), and the NRS score and RMDQ score of the PCNP group decreased more significantly with time ( F交互=26.000, P=0.028; F交互=26.000, P=0.010). Conclusion:PCNP with DLBP patients showed satisfied clinical results in pain relief and improve dysfunction. PCNP is a safe, minimally invasive and effective treatment method, which has a long therapeutic effect and is superior to conservative treatment.

The present study was aimed to explore the neuroprotective role of imatinib in global ischemia-reperfusion-induced cerebral injury along with possible mechanisms. Global ischemia was induced in mice by bilateral carotid artery occlusion for 20 min, which was followed by reperfusion for 24 h by restoring the blood flow to the brain. The extent of cerebral injury was assessed after 24 h of global ischemia by measuring the locomotor activity (actophotometer test), motor coordination (inclined beam walking test), neurological severity score, learning and memory (object recognition test) and cerebral infarction (triphenyl tetrazolium chloride stain). Ischemia-reperfusion injury produced significant cerebral infarction, impaired the behavioral parameters and decreased the expression of connexin 43 and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (p-STAT3) in the brain. A single dose administration of imatinib (20 and 40 mg/kg) attenuated ischemia-reperfusion-induced behavioral deficits and the extent of cerebral infarction along with the restoration of connexin 43 and p-STAT3 levels. However, administration of AG490, a selective Janus-activated kinase 2 (JAK2)/STAT3 inhibitor, abolished the neuroprotective actions of imatinib and decreased the expression of connexin 43 and p-STAT3. It is concluded that imatinib has the potential of attenuating global ischemia-reperfusion-induced cerebral injury, which may be possibly attributed to activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway along with the increase in the expression of connexin 43.

Objective To sum up the experience of diagnosis and treatment of paraduodenal hernia. Methods The clinical data of 18 cases of paraduodenal hernia treated by surgery were analyzed retrospectively. Results The average age of the patients was 34 years old.There were 15 cases with left paraduodenal hernia and 3 cases with right paraduodenal hernia.Ten patients usually had no clinical symptoms,while acute abdominal pain occurred after full food in 7 cases,and after vigorous movement in 10 cases respectively.Abdominal X-ray revealed complete or incomplete intestinal obstruction in 16 cases,while abdominal CT revealed abnormal cystic loops of small intestine between the pancreas and the stomach in 10 cases.All 18 cases underwent surgical operation,recovered 10-15 days after operation.After 2-8 years follow-up,there was no hernia recurrence.Conclusion Paraduodenal her-nia is difficult to diagnosis before operation,and the key to correct diagnosis and treatment is to explore the positive exploratory laparotomy.

Objective To explore the long-term effects of bubble baths on seizure-induced neurobehavior deficits and the expression of apoptotic/autophagic marker B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 ( Bcl-2 ),Beclin-1,and plasticity-related gene-1 ( PRG-1 ) in newborn rats. MethodsSixty rats aged 6 days were randomly divided into 4 groups:a control group (CON),a control hydrotherapy group (HCON),a recurrent-seizure group (RS) and a recurrent-seizure hydrotherapy group (HRS),with 15 in each group.Flurothyl was used to induce 30 min of seizures daily for 6 consecutive days in the RS and HRS groups.Rats in the CON and HCON groups were placed in the same container for equal duration without exposure to flurothyl.Rats in the HCON and HRS groups were given bubble baths for 28 consecutive days after the end of the last seizure.Neurobehavioral damage was observed using open field behavior at postnatal day 26 (P26) and Morris water maze performance at postnatal day 43 to 49 (P43-P49) and a single-blind method.PRG-1,Bcl-2 and Beclin-1 protein levels in the hippocampus were detected by Western blotting at postnatal day 50 (P50). Results①The average open field test scores of the RS rats decreased significantly compared with those of the CON and HRS rats at P26.②In the Morris water maze test the average latencies of all rats decreased gradually from the 1st to 5th days (d1 to d5) after establishment of seizure model.The average escape latency was significantly longer for rats of the RS group than for CON group rats at the 4th and 5th days ( d4 and d5 ) after establishment of seizure model.The escape latency was significantly shorter for rats of the HRS group than for RS group rats at d4.③The level of Bcl-2 protein in the hippocampus was much lower in the RS group than in the HRS and control groups.In addition,the expression of PRG-1 in the RS group was significantly higher than in the CON group. ConclusionsRecurrent prolonged seizures cause long-term neurobehavior deficits,which might be associated with the down-regulated expression of Bcl-2 and up-regulated expression of PRG-1 in the hippocampus.Bubble baths can improve the neurobehavioral sequelae from seizures,perhaps through up-regulation of hippocampal Bcl-2 expression.

ObjectiveTo explore the intervention effect and the underlying molecular mechanism of 3-Methyladenine on behavioral damage of neonatal rat with prolonged seizures. MethodsForty-five 6-dayold SD rats were randomly ( random number) divided into the recurrent prolonged neonatal seizure group ( RS group), the 3-MA-treated seizure group and control group. The volatile agent flurothyl was used to induce 30 min seizure attack. At postnatal day 6 (P6), recurrent seizures were induced once daily for successive 6 days in both RS group and 3-MA group. In 3-MA group, 3-MA (2 μL) was injected daily before seizures induced.Neural-behavior changes were observed with double-blind method including swimming development, open field test and Morris water maze analysis. Bcl-2 and Beclinl protein levels in hippocampus were detected by western blot method at P50. ResultsThe total scores of swimming behavior in RS rats were decreased significantly compared with those of control and 3-MA rats ( control: 7. 44 ±1. 13, RS: 5.06±1.63, 3-MA: 7.33 ±1.08, F=16.19, P<0. 01) . The start-latency time of open filed behavior in RS rats ( 13. 33 ±6. 69) were increased significantly compared with that of control (7. 11 ±2. 37) and 3-MA rats (9. 91 ±4. 23) (F=4. 39, P<0. 05). The escape latency was significantly longer in rats of RS group than that of control and 3-MA rats on the 4th and 5th days (P < 0.05). The level of Bcl-2 in hippocampus of RS group (0. 587 +0. 139) were significantly lower than that of control (0. 782 +0. 083) and 3-MA groups (0. 799 + 0. 163) (F =4. 7 1, P < 0. 05 ). There were no significant differences in the level of Beclin1 protein in hippocampus among the three groups ( F =0. 27, P > 0. 05 ).Conclusions Pretreatment with autophagy inhibitor 3-MA in acute phase of neonatal seizures could significantly improve neurobehavioral capacity, which might be associated with the increased in the level of Bcl-2 protein in hippocampus.

ObjectiveTo explore the potentiality of protection by bubble bath hydrotherapy to brain damage of neonatal rats with recurrent seizures.MethodsSixty Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats were randomly divided into control group ( CON),control hydrotherapy group ( HCON ),recurrent-seizure group (RS) and recurrent-seizure hydrotherapy group (HRS).Each group had 15 rats.The volatile agent flurothyl was used to induce 30 min seizure attack.At postnatal day 6 (P6),recurrent seizures were induced once per day for consecutive 6 days in the RS group and HRS group.Rats in the CON and HCON group were placed into the container for same time as their counterpart without exposure to flurothyl.In HCON and HRS groups,Bubble bath hydrotherapy intervention was used after the end of the last seizure for 28 consecutive days.Inspections were made for maturation of physical characteristics,neural behavior.PRG-1 and Bcl-2 protein level in cerebral cortex were detected by western blot method at P50.Results1.Maturation of physical characteristics:body weights of the rats in the RS group were decreased significantly (P<0.05).Body weights of HRS rats were significantly increased than that of RS rats(P<0.05 ).There were no significant difference of physiological development phenomenon among the five groups (P >0.05 ).2.There was high nerve excitation in hydrotherapy group ( At P26,the scores of OFT respectively were 45.78 ± 18.31 for CON,59.78 ± 25.61 for HCON,27.78 ± 16.83 for RS and 53.15 ± 22.43 for HRS,P < 0.01 ).3.The expression of PRG-1 in cerebral cortex of RS group were significantly higher than that of CON group (1.149 ±0.191 for RS,0.910 ±0.162 for CON,P< 0.05 ).The level of Bcl-2 in cerebral cortex of RS group ( 1.149 ±0.191 ) were significantly lower than that of CON group( 1.259 ±0.157) (P<0.05 ),the level of Bcl-2in cerebral cortex of HRS group( 1.572 ± 0.333 ) were significantly higher than that of RS group(P< 0.05 ).ConclusionMaturation of physical characteristics and neurobehavioral were damages following recurrent neonatal seizures,which may be associated with significantly increased level of PRG-1 protein and decreased level of Bcl-2protein in cerebral cortex.The early intervention by Bubble bath hydrotherapy can play a positive role on developmental rehabilitation.
