ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of lysophosphatidic acid （LPA） in patients with liver cancer， as well as its influence on malignant biological behavior of liver cancer and related regulatory mechanism. MethodsFrom January 2016 to December 2022， 26 patients with liver cancer， 28 patients with liver cirrhosis， and 28 individuals undergoing physical examination were enrolled. ELISIA was used to measure the content of LPA in plasma and peritoneal effusion of the patients with liver cancer or liver cirrhosis accompanied by peritoneal effusion， and the content of LPA was measured in plasma of the normal population at the same time， so as to clarify the difference in the expression of LPA in different populations， such as the patients with liver cancer and those with liver cirrhosis. MTT cell proliferation assay and cell migration assay were used to observe the influence of LPA and its inhibitor pertussis toxin （PTX） on the proliferation， migration， and invasion of SMMC7721 cells. In order to investigate the effect of LPA on the expression of RhoA and its upstream and downstream molecules FAK and P53 after binding to its receptor， qPCR and Western blot were used to observe the effect of LPA on the mRNA and protein expression levels of P53， FAK， and RhoA in SMMC7721 cells. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of the means of continuous data between multiple groups， and the SNK-q test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the patients with liver cirrhosis， the patients with liver cancer had a significantly higher concentration of LPA in plasma （4.99±0.55 μmol/L vs 2.63±0.43 μmol/L， P<0.05） and peritoneal effusion （5.19±0.63 μmol/L vs 2.91±0.46 μmol/L， P<0.05）， and the patients with liver cancer also had a significantly higher level of plasma LPA than the normal population （4.99±0.55 μmol/L vs 1.61±0.39 μmol/L， P<0.05）. The cell proliferation assay showed that LPA significantly promoted the proliferation of SMMC7721 cells， and cell proliferation rate increased with the increase in dose and time； in particular， the middle-and high-dose groups had a significantly higher proliferation rate than the control group （P<0.05）. PTX inhibited the proliferative capacity of SMMC7721 cells in a time-dependent manner， and there was a significant difference between the groups （P<0.05）. The proliferation rate of the 72-hour high-dose LPA group was 3.6 times that of the control group， while the proliferation rate of the PTX group was 0.6 times that of the control group； the proliferation rate of the 72-hour high-dose LPA+PTX group was 1.2 times that of the control group. In addition， LPA increased the migration ability of hepatoma cells， while PTX inhibited their migration， in a time-dependent manner， and there was a significant difference between the groups （P<0.05）. The migration rate of the 72-hour high-dose LPA group was 3.09 times that of the control group， while the migration rate of the PTX group was 0.4 times that of the control group； the migration rate of the 72-hour high-dose LPA+PTX group was 0.99 times that of the control group. qPCR and Western blot showed that there were significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression levels of P53 in SMMC7721 cells after LPA treatment， while there were significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression levels of FAK and RhoA； there was a significant difference between the LPA group and the control group （P<0.05）. ConclusionThere is an abnormal increase in the expression of LPA in patients with liver cancer， and LPA can promote the proliferation of liver cancer cells and increase their migration ability. At the same time， LPA changes the expression levels of P53， FAK， and RhoA， which may be associated with the promotion of tumor development and progression by LPA.

Objective:To investigate effect of reperfusion injury following different ischemic duration on skeletal muscle in rats.Methods:A model of ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) was established by unilateral clamping femoral artery and additional application of tourniquet in skeletal muscle of hind limbs in 35 male Wsitar rats. According to different ischemia time, the animals were assigned to 2-hour ischemia and 24-hour reperfusion (I2R24 group), 2.5-hour ischemia and 24-hour reperfusion (I2.5R24 group), 3-hour ischemia and 24-hour reperfusion (I3R24 group), 4-hour ischemia and 24-hour reperfusion (I4R24 group) and sham group, with 7 rats per group. At the end of reperfusion, gastrocnemious tissues and plasma samples were collected and analyzed. The ratio of wet ∶ dry weight (W/D) was used to measure muscle edema. The assay of 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) was conducted to evaluate muscle viability. HE staining was executed to observe histopathological changes. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to assess the levels of C1q, C3b/c, tissue factor (TF), fibrinogen (FN), bradykinin receptor 1 (BR1), BR2, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), E-selectin, fibrinogen-like protein-2 (FGL-2) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in muscle tissues. ELISA method was used to determine the concentrations of interferonγ (IFN-γ), interleukin7 (IL-7), IL-18, macrophage inflammatory1α (MIP-1α) and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) in plasma.Results:With prolongation of ischemia time and subsequent reperfusion, tissue edema became severe gradually. The ratio of W/D was 5.3±0.2, 6.1±0.3, 6.9±0.2, 7.6±0.3 in I2R24, I2.5R24, I3R24 and I4R24 groups, higher than that in sham group (4.5±0.1) (all P<0.01). Muscle viability got decreased gradually. Muscle viability was (62.4±3.5)%, (45.3±3.3)%, (35.4±3.4)%, (27.1±5.9)% in I2R24, I2.5R24, I3R24 and I4R24 groups, lower than that in sham group［(93.8±7.2)%］(all P<0.01). Histopathological changes became aggravated gradually. The most severe group was I4R24 group, with the most severe myocyte injury, interstitial edema and extensive inflammatory infiltration, followed by I3R24, I2.5R24 and I2R24 groups in order. There was normal structure integrity and neatly arranged myocyte in sham group. Meanwhile, levels of C1q, C3b, FN, BR1, VCAM-1, E-selectin and FGL-2 got increased gradually. The highest levels for these factors were seen in I4R24 group, followed by I3R24 group, I2.5R24 group, I2R24 group and sham group in order. The rough ratio of the number of positive MPO cells/total cell number under high lens (×200) were increased gradually, with the highest level in I4R24 group, followed by I3R24 group, I2.5R24 group, I2R24 group and sham group in order. However, expression of TF and BR2 were not altered significantly among the groups. Plasma levels of INF-γ, IL-7, IL-18, MIP-1α and MCP-1 elevated gradually with prolongation of ischemia time (all P<0.01). The sequence was the sham group, I2R24 group, I2.5R24 group, I3R24 group and I4R24 groups for levels of these factors from low to high (all P<0.01). Conclusion:Reperfusion after prolongation of ischemia duration can increase the activation of complement, coagulation, kinin and endothelial cells as well as the release of inflammatory factors, and thus aggravate the degree of skeletal muscle tissue injury.
摘要
Liver cirrhosis is a progressive chronic liver disease due to one or more causes, with diffuse fibrosis in liver tissue, pseudolobules, and regenerative nodules as major histological features. Once liver cirrhosis enters the decompensated stage, the liver and several other organs are injured, which can hardly be recovered or reversed. This article introduces the process of Toll-like receptors in recognizing the changes in intestinal flora and the influence of this process on the development and progression of liver cirrhosis, as well as the protective effect of bile acid against liver cirrhosis by regulating intestinal flora. This article also reviews the advances in delaying liver cirrhosis after the treatment of intestinal dysbacteriosis and points out that the treatment of intestinal dysbacteriosis may become the major direction of liver cirrhosis treatment in future.

Objective To identify key micro RNAs (miRNAs) and thier regulatory pathways through analyzing messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and miRNAs expression profiles in animal models of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).Methods Eighteen 7-d old SD rats were divided into hypoxic-ischemic group and sham-operated group (n=9) by random number table. And rats in each group were divided into 0 h sub-group, one d sub-group and 7 d sub-group (n=3) according to different times after model making. Modified Rice method was used to establish the HIE rat models in the hypoxic-ischemic group, and only the left common carotid artery was isolated in the sham-operated group. The cerebral cortices of the two groups were taken for high-throughput sequencing to establish mRNAs and miRNAs expression profiles. TargetScan, miRanda and PITA were used to match differential miRNAs with corresponding homologous mRNAs, and to analyze and predict their related target genes and signal pathways.Results (1) As compared with those in the sham-operated group, the enzymatic analysis of the mRNAs sequencing results of the brain tissues in the hypoxic-ischemic group showed that the biological characteristics of the HIE models in the 0 h sub-group were likely to be reflected in cell localization, cell proliferation, migration, and vascular development, and associated with complement and antigen presentation, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathway and cytokine receptors; those in the one d sub-group were likely to be reflected in single organism signal, and response to external stimuli, and vascular development, and associated with complement, antigen presentation, adhesion, and extracellular matrix receptors; those in the 7 d sub-group were likely to be involved in cell localization, single organism signaling, and cell adhesion, and associated with complement, antigen presentation and cytokine receptor. (2) After comparing the differentially expressed miRNAs detected by miRNAs sequencing with the mRNAs sequencing results of the same group, it was found that there were differences in the expressions of rno-mir-181b-5p, rno-mir144-3p, rno-mir-873-5p, rno-mir-411-5p, rno-mir-132-3p, rno-mir-486, rno-mir-127-5p and rno-mir-6321; functional analysis found that these miRNAs mainly involved in inflammatory response and regulation of neurological function in various periods.Conclusion Through the complex negative regulatory network, miRNAs may participate in the key pathogenesis of HIE at various stages through various inflammatory mechanism and play an important role in the neuronal plasticity of the neonatal hypoxic ischemic brain tissue and the development of the nervous system.

BACKGROUND: Distal humerus fracture is often comminuted, and is difficult to receive reduction and fixation due to its special anatomical structure. Choosing which surgical approach is still a controversy.OBJECTIVE: To compare and analyze the curative efficacy of the perpendicular double-locking plating system for the internal fixation of type C distal humerus fractures through two kinds of postcubital approaches.METHODS: Thirty-two cases of type C distal humerus fractures were enrolled and divided into groups A (osteotomy of olecranon approach) and B (tricep anconeus flap approach). There was no significant difference in the baseline data between two groups. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, healing time,postoperative follow-up and complications were recorded and analyzed. The patients were followed up at 2 weeks, 1, 3,6, 12, and 18 months. The healing time and complications were recorded according to radiographs and physical examinations. The Mayo Elbow Performance Score was used to determine the elbow function at 1 year postoperatively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The group A had a longer operation time and more intraoperative blood loss than those in the group B (P 0.05). (3) These results suggest that the articular surface of the distal humerus fracture is displayed well through two approaches, and the perpendicular double-locking plating system for the internal fixation of type C distal humerus fractures is rational. Noticeably, the tricep anconeus flap approach dose little damage to the muscle, while the osteotomy of olecranon approach obtains better elbow function and less complications.

Objective To investigate the clinical results of the primary total hip replacement (THR) and the secondary THR after failed internal fixation in the elderly patients with displaced femoral neck fracture so as to find the optimal treatment for displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly patients. Methods From April 2001 to April 2007,16 patients (Study Group) treated with a secondary THR after failed internal fixation and 20 patients (Control Group) treated with a primary THR were enrolled in the study and followed up. There were seven males and nine females, at average age of 66. 5 years (50-85 years) and with mean follow-up period of 58. 25 months (24-96 months) in the Study Group. There were six males and 14 females, at average age of 68.1 years (51-83 years) and with mean follow-up period of 49.50 months (24-70 months) in the Control Group. All patients were active and lucid before they suffered fractures. Blood loss and operation duration in THR were compared. Hip function (Harris score) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL, KPS index score) were assessed during the follow-up after THR. Results Operative duration was (115.63 ±34.35) minutes in Study Group and (91.25 ±15.80) minutes in Control Group (P<0.05). Blood loss was (546.86 ±377.04) ml in Study Group and (320.00 ±155.94) ml in Control Group (P<0.05). At follow up, Harris score and KPS index score were (87. 25 ±7. 53) points and (95. 00 ±5. 16) points respectively in Study Group, and (90.20±5.46) points and (96.00 ±0.73) points respectively in Control Group (P>0.05). There were no infections or re-operations in two groups, but with one death in each group during the follow-up. Conclusions THR is the optimal treatment for displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly patients.The secondary THR after failed internal fixation has higher risks in operation compared with the primary THR for a displaced femoral neck fracture in the elderly patient.

Objective To observe the rotenone induced changes of nitric oxide (NO) concentration and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity in rat caudate nuclei and blood plasma. Methods Wistar rats were daily administrated with rotenone at the doses of 0.335, 0.670 and 1.005 mg/kg(sc). Animals were sacrificed on days 30, 60 and 90. The NO concentration and the NOS activity in the caudate nuclei and blood plasma were determined by biochemical methods. Results At each time point of days 30, 60 and 90, rotenone induced significant increases in NO concentration and NOS activity in both the caudate nuclei and blood plasma in dose and time dependent manners. Conclusion Long term exposure to rotenone leads to the increase of nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase in brain tissues and blood plasma in rat.

Objective To investigate the roles of nitric oxide and caspase 3 in PC12 cell apoptosis induced by rotenone. Methods The acute injury effect of rotenone on PC12 cells and viability of the PC12 cells were detected by MTT assay. Nitrite (NO 2 -) was quantified by Greiss reaction. The activity of caspase 3 and the cell apoptosis were detected by fluoremetry and agarose gel electrophoresis, respectively. Results The MTT colorimetry indicated that PC12 cell viability reached a peak at 7 d after passage. L NAME at the concentration of 100 ?mol/L showed the strongest protective effect for PC12 cell in the four different doses. Rotenone also induced the formation of DNA ladder in PC12 cells. Additionally, the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L NAME inhibited the activity of caspase 3 protease. L NAME also inhibited the production of nitric oxide induced by rotenone. Conclusion Nitric oxide and caspase 3 are involved in the process of PC12 cell apoptosis induced by rotenone.
