RESUMEN

BACKGROUP: The pathogenesis of shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is still unclear, and its questionable causal relationship with rotator cuff (RC) injury has led to confusion in treatment. The purpose of this study was to explore the bidirectional causal relationship between SIS and RC injury. METHODS: SIS and RC injury datasets downloaded from the IEU Open GWAS project and GWAS catalog databases. Inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR Egger, Weighted median, and Weighted mode were used in this Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Cochran's Q test, leave-one-out, and funnel plot method were used to evaluate heterogeneity between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). MR-Egger regression was used to test the horizontal pleiotropy of this study. RESULTS: The IVW method (OR = 1.189, P = 0.0059) suggest the putative causal effect of RC injury on SIS. The results of MR Egger method (OR = 1.236, P = 0.2013), weighted median method (OR = 1.097, P = 0.2428) and weighted mode method (OR = 1.013, P = 0.930) showed no statistically significant (OR = 1.069071, P = 0.6173). Heterogeneity test and horizontal pleiotropy analysis suggested that there was no significant heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy in the results of this MR analysis. The reverse MR analysis showed heterogeneity, and the conclusion needs to be further explored. CONCLUSIONS: The results of MR analysis support that RC injury may be causally associated with SIS.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Neuropathic pain, a complex condition originating from nervous system damage, remains a significant clinical challenge due to limited understanding of its underlying mechanisms. Recent research highlights the SOX11 transcription factor, known for its role in nervous system development, as a crucial player in neuropathic pain development and maintenance. This study investigates the role of the SOX11-ARID1A-SOCS3 pathway in neuropathic pain modulation within the spinal cord. METHODS AND RESULTS: Using a spinal nerve ligation (SNL) model in mice, we observed a significant upregulation of Sox11 in the spinal cord dorsal horn post-injury. Intrathecal administration of Sox11 shRNA mitigated SNL-induced neuropathic pain behaviors, including mechanical allodynia and heat hyperalgesia. Further, we demonstrated that Sox11 regulates neuropathic pain via transcriptional control of ARID1A, with subsequent modulation of SOCS3 expression. Knockdown of ARID1A and SOCS3 via shRNA resulted in alleviation of Sox11-induced pain sensitization. Additionally, Sox11 overexpression led to an increase in ARID1A binding to the SOCS3 promoter, enhancing chromatin accessibility and indicating a direct regulatory relationship. These findings were further supported by in vitro luciferase reporter assays and chromatin accessibility analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The SOX11-ARID1A-SOCS3 pathway plays a pivotal role in the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain. Sox11 acts as a master regulator, modulating ARID1A, which in turn influences SOCS3 expression, thereby contributing to the modulation of neuropathic pain. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying neuropathic pain and highlight potential therapeutic targets for its treatment. The differential regulation of this pathway in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) underscores its complexity and the need for targeted therapeutic strategies.

RESUMEN

AIMS: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant contributor to death in individuals diagnosed with coronary heart disease on a worldwide level. The specific mechanism by which circRbms1 contributes to the damage caused by myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) is not well understood. The primary aim of this study was to examine the role of circRbms1 and its associated mechanisms in the setting of I/R injury. METHODS AND RESULTS: An in vivo MI mice model and an in vitro MI cell model was established. The expression levels were detected using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot. Cellular proliferation, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy were detected by immunostaining, immunohistochemistry, western blot, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Dual-luciferase reporter assay, RNA pull-down assay, and RIP assay were performed to validate the molecular interactions. CircRbms1 was up-regulated in A/R-induced HCMs and acted as a sponge for miR-142-3p, thereby targeting MST1. CircRbms1 could improve stability of MST1 by recruiting IGF2BP2 (all P < 0.05). CircRbms1 knockout reduced cell pyroptosis, improved autophagy and proliferation level in A/R-induced HCMs (all P < 0.05). CircRbms1 knockout alleviated cardiac dysfunction and cell pyroptosis and enhanced autophagy and proliferation in mice through the miR-142-3p/MST1 axis. CONCLUSIONS: CircRbms1 inhibited the miR-142-3p/MST1 axis and played a protective role in myocardial I/R injury. It may provide a new therapeutic target for I/R heart injury.

RESUMEN

Human chorionic membrane mesenchymal stem cells (hCM-MSCs) have increasingly emerged as an excellent source of transplanted cells for regenerative therapy as they can be isolated via a non-invasive and simple method with high proliferative capabilities. However, the roles and mechanisms of hCM-MSCs on traumatic brain injury (TBI) animal models have not been investigated yet. The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic potential and mechanism of hCM-MSCs transplantation in a rat model of TBI. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to moderate lateral fluid percussion-induced TBI. At 2 h after TBI, hCM-MSCs, or PBS were administered intravenously via the tail vein. Neurological function, brain water content, Evans blue dye extravasation, immunofluorescence staining, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent were evaluated. The results showed that transplanted hCM-MSCs were observed in the injured brain. Compared with the PBS group, hCM-MSCs treatment significantly decreased the numbers of M1 macrophages/microglia, MPO + neutrophils and caspase-3 + cells ( P  < 0.01). Meanwhile, hCM-MSCs treatment significantly reduced the expression levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, interleukin-(IL)6 and IL-1ß) while increasing the numbers of M2 macrophages/microglia and the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 ( P  < 0.01). In addition, hCM-MSCs treatment significantly reduced brain water content and Evans blue extravasation. Lastly, hCM-MSCs treatment significantly promoted neurogenesis and angiogenesis, and attenuated neurological deficits. Collectively, these findings indicate that hCM-MSCs exhibited effective therapeutic efficacy in a rat TBI model, and its mechanism may be by reducing inflammation, apoptosis and the blood-brain barrier disruption, promoting angiogenesis and neurogenesis.

RESUMEN

Ferroptosis is a new way of cell death which is reported to participate in the pathology of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury, but it's mechanism remains unclear. The present investigation is to study the emerging role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) regulator of reprogramming (ROR) in cardiomyocyte ferroptosis after hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) administration. RT-qPCR and/or Western blot methods were performed to examine the gene/or protein levels, and CCK-8, ELISA, and DCFH-DA staining determined the cellular viability and ferroptosis. Dual-luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation were applied to verify molecular interaction. LncRNA ROR and miR-769-5p were overexpressed and reduced in blood samples from MI patients and H/R-treated AC16 cells, respectively. Mechanistically, lncROR sponged to miR-769-5p, thus upregulating CBX7 expression. Functional experiments presented that lncRNA ROR silence mitigated H/R-stimulated inflammatory damage, oxidative stress, and ferroptosis in AC16 cells, whereas these roles could be reversed by co-downregulation of miR-769-5p or co-overexpression of CBX7. These data uncovered that lncRNA ROR prevented against H/R-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis by modulating miR-769-5p/CBX7 signaling, emphasizing the therapeutic value of lncRNA ROR in MI/R injury.
