ObjectiveTo explore the protective mechanism of paeoniflorin on mice with ulcerative colitis (UC) through the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) autophagy pathway. MethodUC mouse model was established by allowing mice freely drink 4% DSS, and 56 BALB/c male mice were randomly divided into model group, AMPK inhibitor group (20 mg·kg-1), paeoniflorin (50 mg·kg-1) + inhibitor (20 mg·kg-1) group, and high dose (50 mg·kg-1), medium dose (25 mg·kg-1), and low dose (12.5 mg·kg-1) paeoniflorin groups. After seven days of drug intervention, the protective effect of paeoniflorin on mice with UC was determined by comparing the body weight, disease activity index (DAI) changes, and Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining results. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the serum of mice in each group, and immunofluorescence was utilized to detect microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) content in the colon, AMPK, mTOR proteins, and their phosphorylated proteins including p-AMPK and p-mTOR in the colon tissue were detected by Western blot, and the mRNA expression levels of AMPK, mTOR, Beclin1, LC3, and p62 were detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultCompared with the blank group, the model group showed a decrease in body mass, an increase in DAI score, and severe pathological damage to the colon. The levels of inflammatory factors including TNF-α and IL-6 increased in serum (P<0.01), while the protein levels of LC3 and p-AMPK/AMPK were down-regulated in colon tissue, and those of p-mTOR/mTOR were up-regulated (P<0.01). The mRNA expression levels of AMPK and LC3 were down-regulated, while the mRNA expression levels of mTOR and p62 were up-regulated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group and the paeoniflorin + inhibitor group, the mice treated with paeoniflorin showed an increase in body mass, a decrease in DAI score, a reduction in pathological damage to colon tissue, and a reduction in the levels of inflammatory factors of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum (P<0.05). The protein levels of LC3 and p-AMPK/AMPK in colon tissue were up-regulated, while the protein levels of p-mTOR/mTOR were down-regulated (P<0.01). The mRNA expression levels of AMPK, Beclin1, and LC3 were up-regulated, while the mRNA expression of mTOR and p62 were down-regulated (P<0.01). The colon tissue of the inhibitor group was severely damaged, and the trend of various indicators was completely opposite to that of the high dose paeoniflorin group. ConclusionPaeoniflorin can enhance autophagy and reduce inflammatory damage in mice with UC by activating the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway and thus play a protective role.

Myopia is a serious threat to children's visual health, and high myopia can not only cause vision loss, but also lead to severe complications and even blindness. In recent years, with the rising incidence of myopia and the increasing awareness of myopia, the problem of myopia has been widely concerned. At present, the specific mechanism of the incidence and progression of myopia remains ambiguous, and it is generally believed that the sclera is the effector of myopia. With the development of myopia and axial growth, the structure and function of the eyeball change accordingly. The high rates of axial length growth leads to scleral remodeling and accelerated thinning of the posterior pole sclera. Myopia changes the normal tissue structure and biomechanical properties of the sclera, and the regulation of related gene expression is the key to these changes. With the help of myopia animal models and gene sequencing technology, a large number of researchers have found that scleral extracellular matrix remodeling is closely related to the occurrence and development of myopia. This paper discusses the changes of sclera structure and related genes in the development of myopia. It provides ideas for exploring the mechanism of scleral remodeling in myopia and finding new target of treatment.

Objective To systematically evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) versus traditional laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD), and to provide a reference for clinical research and practice. Methods Chinese and English databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched to include the cohort studies comparing the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted laparoscopy and traditional laparoscopy in pancreaticoduodenectomy. The quality of included articles was evaluated based on Cochrane systematic review, and Stata15.1 software was used to perform a meta-analysis of related outcome measures extracted. Results A total of 12 cohort studies were included, with 1630 patients in total, and there were 683 patients in the RPD group and 947 patients in the LPD group. The meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences between the RPD group and the LPD group in postoperative bleeding rate (odds ratio [ OR ]=0.66, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 0.48-0.91, P < 0.05), rate of conversion to laparotomy ( OR =0.41, 95% CI : 0.30-0.56, P < 0.05), estimated intraoperative blood loss (weighted mean difference [ WMD ]=-0.77, 95% CI : -1.33 to -0.22, P < 0.05), and length of postoperative hospital stay (WMD=-0.45, 95% CI : -0.80 to -0.11, P < 0.05). Country of publication might be one of the sources of heterogeneity in the incidence rate of postoperative complications between subgroups ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional LPD, da Vinci RPD can reduce postoperative bleeding rate, intraoperative blood loss and rate of conversion to laparotomy and shorten postoperative hospital stay, and meanwhile, it does not increase the operation time and the incidence rate of postoperative complications. Both surgical procedures are safe and feasible.
摘要
Ischemic-type biliary lesion (ITBL) refers to biliary tract injury caused by insufficient blood supply of hepatic artery, which is one of the main factors affecting the long-term survival and quality of life of liver transplant recipients. The incidence of ITBL is associated with cold and warm ischemia, acute and chronic rejection, cytomegalovirus infection and the bile effect, etc. The occurrence of ITBL is a complicated process involving with multiple factors and steps. The therapeutic option of ITBL is extremely limited. A large proportion of ITBL patients should undergo repeated liver transplantation. ITBL has become one of the most critical factors preventing further advancement of liver transplantation. Hence, it is of significance to strengthen prevention and explore more effective modalities. Recent studies have found that toxic injury of bile salts plays a central role in ITBL. Active regulation of bile components, regulation of bile acid-related receptor expression and blockage or activation of bile acid-related signaling pathways probably have potentials in the prevention and treatment of ITBL. In this article, the cytotoxicity of bile salts and the mechanism of bicarbonate umbrella in the incidence and progression of ITBL after liver transplantation were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of ITBL.

ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism of Bushen Zhuyun prescription (BSZYP) to reduce the level of ovarian apoptosis in Brown Norway (BN) rats with luteal phase deficiency (LPD). MethodFifty SPF female BN rats were randomly divided into a model group, a dydrogesterone group (0.002 g·kg-1), and a low (4.5 g·kg-1), a medium (9 g·kg-1), and a high-dose (18 g·kg-1) BSZYP groups, with ten rats in each group. The rats were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage, once a day for three estrus cycle. Western blot was used to detected the protein expression levels of c-Jun NH2 terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), phosphorylated-ERK (p-ERK), phosphorylated-JNK (p-JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), phosphorylated-p38 MAPK (p-p38 MAPK ), B-cell lymphoma (Bcl-2), and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) in ovary. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of ERK, JNK, p38 MAPK, Bax, and Bcl-2 in ovary. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum progesterone (P) and estradiol (E2) levels. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the ovarian tissue morphology. ResultCompared with the model group, the recovery of estrus cycle of rats in all BSZYP groups had statistical significance after 1-circle administration (P<0.05). The ovarian tissue morphology in the low-dose BSZYP group was improved, and that in the medium and high-dose BSZYP groups was significantly improved with clear follicle, less vesicular follicle and atretic follicle, and more granular layers. The number of luteum, especially the fresh luteum, in the medium and high-dose groups was increased with smooth edge and large volume. The mRNA expression level of Bcl-2 was increased in all-dose BSZYP groups, while the mRNA expression level of Bax was significantly decreased in all-dose BSZYP group (P<0.05, P<0.01). The mRNA expression levels of JNK and p38 MAPK were significantly decreased in the high-dose BSZYP group (P<0.01), and the mRNA expression levels of ERK were increased in the low and medium-dose BSZYP groups (P<0.05). The protein expression level of Bcl-2 was significantly increased in the medium and high-dose BSZYP groups (P<0.01), and the protein expression level of Bax was significantly decreased in the all-dose BSZYP groups (P<0.01). No significant difference was observed in the protein expressions of JNK, ERK, and p38 MAPK in the BSZYP groups. The protein expression levels of p-ERK in the ovarian tissues of rats were significantly inoreased in the medium and high-dose BSZYP group (P<0.01), p-JNK, and p-p38 MAPK in the ovarian tissues of rats were significantly decreased in the medium and high-dose BSZYP group (P<0.01). The level of E2 was increased in all-dose BSZYP groups (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the level of P in the medium-dose BSZYP group was increased (P<0.05). ConclusionBSZYP improved the serum sex hormones, restored the estrous cycle, reduced atretic follicle and vesiculation, and maintained luteal morphology and function of BN rats, so as to improve luteal function and treat luteal phase deficiency. The mechanism of BSZYP may be related to reduce the level of ovarian tissue apoptosis in BN rats by regulating MAPKs signaling pathway.
摘要
At present, surgical and endoscopic interventions are mainly employed to treat ischemic-type biliary lesion (ITBL). Due to the disadvantages of single therapeutic strategy, high difficulty and expensive medical cost, it is urgent to identify a novel treatment option. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) has become potential seed cell for tissue and organ repair in regenerative medicine due to its high self-renewal capability, multi-directional differentiation potential, low immunogenicity and immunoregulatory effects, etc. Recent studies have demonstrated that MSC transplantation into ITBL animal models may not only home to the injured area, but also promote the repair of injured biliary tract tissues through anti-apoptotic and pro-angiogenic effect, which indicates that MSC transplantation is expected to become a new strategy for the treatment of ITBL. In this article, the biological characteristics of MSC, the mechanism and clinical application of MSC transplantation for ITBL were reviewed.

Hot flashes are the most common specific symptom of perimenopausal women, which seriously endangers their physical and mental health and quality of life. Because the pathogenesis of hot flashes is not yet clear, and existing estrogen replacement therapy has many limitations and contraindications, it is particularly urgent and important to explore the pathogenesis of hot flashes and find new therapeutic targets. Recent studies suggest that abnormalities of KNDy neurons in the arcuate nucleus of hypothalamus when estrogen decreases during perimenopause are the key factors that trigger hot flashes. Some scholars believe that KNDy neurons in the arcuate nucleus are involved in the occurrence of hot flashes by regulating the pulse release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and its downstream luteinizing hormone, while some other scholars believe that KNDy neurons in the arcuate nucleus play a key role in the process of hot flashes by regulating the median preoptic nucleus of the hypothalamic preoptic area. Therefore, this review intends to summarize the above two types of current relationship between the KNDy neurons in the arcuate nucleus and the occurrence of hot flashes and the possible mechanisms by which KNDy neurons participate in hot flashes, and lay a theoretical foundation for the exploring of new targets and method for the treatment of perimenopausal hot flashes.

BACKGROUND@#Pulmonary deportation of hydatidiform mole is an exceedingly rare entity. The underlying mechanisms and proper management strategies remain unclear based on sporadic case reports over the past six decades. This study aimed to investigate the clinical features and rational treatment of patients with benign molar pregnancies with pulmonary deportation based on our experience.@*METHODS@#Medical records of 20 cases of hydatidiform mole with pulmonary deportation were retrospectively reviewed at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from November 2006 to May 2019. The detailed information of all patients was recorded and analyzed. Patients were divided into different groups according to their characteristics and Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the duration to achieve a normal β-human chorionic gonadotrophin (β-hCG) level after the first evacuation among groups.@*RESULTS@#Initial pulmonary computed tomography scans showed suspected bilateral, left and right chest deportation of hydatidiform mole in 12, four, and four patients, respectively, with the maximum nodular diameter ranging from 0.6 to 1.2 cm. Ten patients achieved lesion resolution while the remaining ten patients achieved decreases in the size of their pulmonary lesions. The median duration to achieve a normal β-hCG level after the first evacuation was 15.5 (13.0, 21.9) weeks. There was no significant difference in the duration to achieve a normal β-hCG level after the first evacuation between two groups based on age (≥40 years vs. 0.5 cm vs. ≤0.5 cm: 13.0 [11.3, 17.2] weeks vs. 16.0 [14.5, 23.8] weeks, Z = 1.815, P = 0.070), and number of uterine evacuations (once vs. twice or three times: 15.0 [13.0, 16.3] weeks vs. 16.0 [12.8, 23.9] weeks, Z = 0.832, P = 0.405). The post-molar cohort was followed up for 17 to 139 months, and no gestational trophoblastic neoplasia was observed.@*CONCLUSIONS@#No surgeries other than uterine evacuation and no chemotherapy regimens are recommended for such patients if they achieve satisfactory decreases in the level of hCG and gradual decrease or disappearance of pulmonary deportation nodules. Patients should be informed about the necessity of long-term follow-up. More collaborative international studies on this exceedingly rare condition may guide decisions regarding optimal management strategies.

OBJECTIVE@#To study the effect of PR-957 on the formation of A1 reactive astrocytes.@*METHODS@#The cerebral cortices of 1-day-old female rats were obtained and cultured for primary astrocytes. These cells were divided into 3 groups: control, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and LPS+PR-957. The LPS group was treated with LPS (at a concentration of 5 μmol/L) for 48 hours; the LPS+PR-957 group was treated with PR-957 (at a final concentration of 200 nmol/L) for 1 hour and then LPS for 48 hours. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the expression of complement 3 (C3, a marker for A1 reactive astrocytes) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). Quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine the relative mRNA expression of glypican-6 (GPC6), SPARC-like 1 (SPARCL1), and lipocalin-2 (LCN2). All the above experiments were repeated three times independently.@*RESULTS@#C3 expression was almost not observed in the control group, but was observed in both the LPS group and the LPS+PR-957 group, with significantly lower expression observed in the LPS+PR-957 group (P<0.05). The expression of TNF-α was consistent with that of C3. Compared with the control group, the LPS and the PS+PR-957 groups had significantly reduced mRNA expression levels of GPC6 and SPARCL1 but significantly increased mRNA expression level of LCN2 (P<0.001). Compared with the LPS group, the LPS+PR-957 group had significantly increased mRNA expression levels of GPC6 and SPARCL1 but significantly reduced mRNA expression level of LCN2 (P<0.001).@*CONCLUSIONS@#LPS can induce the transformation from astrocytes to A1 reactive astrocytes, and PR-957 can inhibit the formation of LPS-induced A1 reactive astrocytes.

The 16S rDNA sequencing method was adopted to study the effects of mulberry leaf flavonoids, polysaccharides and alkaloids on intestinal microflora in db/db diabetic mice. The animal experiment was examined by the Ethics Committee of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine. Ten db/m mice were control group and forty db/db mice were randomly divided into model group, metformin group, mulberry flavonoid (MF) group, mulberry polysaccharide (MP) group and mulberry alkaloid (MA) group. After intragastric administration for six weeks, fresh feces were collected for detection of intestinal microflora. There were Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Saccharibacteria, Tenericutes, Deferribacteres, Verrucomicrobia, Cyanobacteria in each group. The results showed that the intestinal microflora of db/db mice changed significantly from phylum level to genus level. The proportion of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria in model group decreased significantly, and the proportion of Bacteroidetes increased. The difference in species abundance distribution between model group and other groups was significant, which indicated that the community distribution was disordered in model group. After administration, the Bacteroidetes, Lachnospiraceae, Roseburia and Desulfovibrio were effectively regulated, especially in the alkaloid group. The difference in species abundance distribution between drug-treated group and blank group also became smaller. It is suggested that the active components of mulberry leaf have the effect of improving the intestinal microflora imbalance in db/db mice.
