Mental Health Symptoms and Service Use in Depressed and Anxious Minors at the Onset of COVID-19 in a County Clinic Serving a Predominantly Hispanic Population.

OBJECTIVE: The study's primary aim was to compare the utilization rates of services by minors with depression/anxiety in a county mental health clinic before (from December 1, 2019, to March 15, 2020) and during the COVID-19 pandemic (from March 16 to June 30, 2020). The secondary aim was to study demographics and psychiatric symptomatology. METHODS: Service utilization rates were estimated. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to identify significant predictors of worsening psychiatric symptoms, anxiety, and change in the frequency of therapy between the pre-COVID-19 period and the COVID-19 period. RESULTS: Service utilization rates increased during the pandemic period. During the pandemic, the presence of mood symptoms, suicidal ideation, and relationship conflicts predicted worsening psychiatric symptoms. In addition, the presence of preexisting sleep problems and physical health issues that continued during COVID-19 exhibited correlations with worsening psychiatric symptoms during COVID-19. COVID-related stressors and physical health issues were associated with anxiety; suicidal ideation predicted a change in the frequency of therapy. CONCLUSIONS:  Prospective studies to recognize risk factors for worsening mental health in minors with psychiatric illness during a crisis are warranted to identify and allocate services to the high-risk groups.

The impact of surgical volume on outcomes in newly diagnosed colorectal cancer patients receiving definitive surgeries.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who receive cancer surgeries from higher-volume providers may have better outcomes. However, the definitions of surgical volume may affect the results. We aim to analyze the effects of different definitions of surgical volume on patient outcomes. We conducted a nationwide population-based study in Taiwan that enrolled all patients who underwent definitive surgery for newly diagnosed CRC. We used three common definitions of surgical volume: total volume means the total surgical number conducted by the same provider during the study period; cumulative volume was calculated as the number of operations the surgeon performed before the index procedure; annual volume was calculated as the number of times the surgeon had been responsible for surgery during the index year. In this study, we included 100,009 newly diagnosed CRC patients, including 55.8% males, of median age 66 years at diagnosis (range 20-105 years). After adjustment for the patient and provider characteristics, we found that CRC patients receiving definitive surgery by higher-volume providers had better outcomes, especially where surgeon volume may play a more important role than hospital volume. The cumulative volume could predict the 5-year mortality of the study cohort better than the total and annual volume.

[Analysis on Hydrochemical Evolution of Shallow Groundwater East of Yongding River in Fengtai District, Beijing].

In order to enhance the support for groundwater development and utilization, as well as pollution control and prevention in Fengtai District, Beijing, a comprehensive study was conducted based on long-term monitoring data of shallow groundwater in the eastern area of Yongding River during the dry season. The mathematical statistics, Piper diagram, Gibbs diagram, and ion ratio analysis and other methods were employed to explore the pattern of groundwater hydrochemical evolution, the formation mechanism, and sources of pollution in Fengtai District. The findings were as follows:① Overall, the current groundwater quality in the study area was poor. The average concentration of each index in groundwater increased and then decreased from 1976 to the present. The pollution range of Cl-, SO42-, and TH generally expanded, whereas the pollution range of TDS and NO3- expanded before 2005 and then decreased with 2005 as the turning point. ② The hydrochemical types of groundwater samples displayed a complex regional variation each year, as well as along the groundwater direction. The dominant anion in groundwater was HCO3-, and the dominant cation was Ca2+ each year. The number of groundwater hydrochemical types in 1976 was 8, in which the predominant type was HCO3·SO4-Ca·Mg·Na, accounting for 40%. However, the number of groundwater hydrochemical types in 2021 was 17, in which the predominant type was HCO3·Cl·SO4-Ca·Na·Mg, accounting for 23.88%. The groundwater hydrochemical type showed a complex trend within the region and upstream along the flow direction each year, whereas the migration characteristics of groundwater samples, as depicted on the Piper diagram, indicated that the hydrochemical components of groundwater were significantly affected by human activities during its evolution. ③ The groundwater chemistry in the study area was influenced by both rock weathering and evaporative crystallization processes, with evaporation playing a major role. The alternation of groundwater cations was relatively weak, and the dissolution of carbonate minerals served as the primary source of Ca2+ and Mg2+. ④ The ion ratio analysis suggested that exogenous sources, mainly agricultural activities and urban sewage, contributed to the input of NO3- and Cl-. The pollution impact from agricultural activities was significant before 2005, which aligned with the historical presence of numerous seepage pits, seepage wells, and direct discharge of industrial and domestic sewage for irrigation purposes in the study area. These activities were closely associated with the high levels of pollution. However, pollution input from agricultural activities notably decreased in 2021, likely due to the effective implementation of water environmental protection programs and action plans in recent years.

Predictive Value of Combined HbA1c and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy in Type 2 Diabetes.

BACKGROUND Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a prevalent complication affecting over 60% of type 2 diabetes patients. Early diagnosis is challenging, leading to irreversible impacts on quality of life. This study explores the predictive value of combining HbA1c and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) for early DPN detection. MATERIAL AND METHODS An observational study was conducted at the First People's Hospital of Linping District, Hangzhou spanning from May 2019 to July 2020. Data on sex, age, biochemical measurements were collected from electronic medical records and analyzed. Employing multivariate logistic regression analysis, we sought to comprehend the factors influencing the development of DPN. To assess the predictive value of individual and combined testing for DPN, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted. The data analysis was executed using R software (Version: 4.1.0). RESULTS The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) (OR=1.94, 95% CI: 1.27-3.14) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (OR=4.60, 95% CI: 1.15-22.62, P=0.04) as significant risk factors for the development of DPN. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated that HbA1c, NLR, and their combined detection exhibited high sensitivity in predicting the development of DPN (71.60%, 90.00%, and 97.2%, respectively), with moderate specificity (63.8%, 45.00%, and 50.00%, respectively). The area under the curve (AUC) for these predictors was 0.703, 0.661, and 0.733, respectively. CONCLUSIONS HbA1c and NLR emerge as noteworthy risk indicators associated with the manifestation of DPN in patients with type 2 diabetes. The combined detection of HbA1c and NLR exhibits a heightened predictive value for the development of DPN.

Ruxolitinib-loaded cytokine nanosponge alleviated the cytokine storm and dampened macrophage overactivation for the treatment of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome characterized by a positive feedback loop between cytokine storm and macrophages and lymphocytes overactivation, which could serve as a valid therapeutic target for HLH treatment. In this study, the clinically extensively used JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib was encapsulated into macrophage membrane-coated nanoparticles (M@NP-R) with high drug-loading efficiency for targeted HLH treatment. In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that M@NP-R not only efficiently adsorbed extracellular proinflammation cytokines, like IFN-γ and IL-6 to alleviate the cytokine storm, but also effectively dampened macrophage activation and proliferation by intracellular JAK/STAT signaling pathway inhibition. M@NP-R treatment significantly ameliorated the clinical and laboratory manifestations of HLH in mouse models, including trilineage cytopenia, hypercytokinemia, organomegaly, hepatorenal dysfunction, and tissue inflammation. Importantly, M@NP-R significantly enhanced the survival of the lethal HLH mice. Altogether, M@NP-R successfully blocked the positive feedback loop between the cytokine storm and macrophage overactivation by depleting extracellular inflammatory cytokines and inhibiting the intracellular JAK/STAT signaling pathway, both of which worked synergistically in HLH treatment. As ruxolitinib has already been extensively used in clinics with favorable safety, and M@NP is biodegradable and highly biocompatible, M@NP-R has good prospects for clinical translation.

Phosphorescent acyclic cucurbituril solid supramolecular multicolour delayed fluorescence behaviour.

Organic photoluminescent macrocyclic hosts have been widely advanced in many fields. Phosphorescent hosts with the ability to bind organic guests have rarely been reported. Herein, acyclic cucurbituril modified with four carboxylic acids (ACB-COOH) is mined to present uncommon purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) at 510 nm with a lifetime of 1.86 µs. Its RTP properties are significantly promoted with an extended lifetime up to 2.12 s and considerable quantum yield of 6.29% after assembly with a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix. By virtue of the intrinsic self-crimping configuration of ACB-COOH, organic guests, including fluorescence dyes (Rhodamine B (RhB) and Pyronin Y (PyY)) and a drug molecule (morphine (Mor)), could be fully encapsulated by ACB-COOH to attain energy transfer involving phosphorescent acyclic cucurbituril. Ultimately, as-prepared systems are successfully exploited to establish multicolor afterglow materials and visible sensing of morphine. As an expansion of phosphorescent acyclic cucurbituril, the host afterglow color can be readily regulated by attaching different aromatic sidewalls. This study develops the fabrication strategies and application scope of a supramolecular phosphorescent host and opens up a new direction for the manufacture of intelligent long-lived luminescent materials.

Circulating plasma cells as a predictive biomarker in Multiple myeloma: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Circulating plasma cells (CPCs) are defined by the presence of peripheral blood clonal plasma cells, which would contribute to the progression and dissemination of multiple myeloma (MM). An increasing number of studies have demonstrated the predictive potential of CPCs in the past few years. Therefore, there is a growing need for an updated meta-analysis to identify the specific relationship between CPCs and the prognosis of MM based on the current research status. METHODS: The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were screened to determine eligible studies from inception to November 5, 2023. Publications that reported the prognostic value of CPCs in MM patients were included. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were extracted to pool the results. Subgroup analyses were performed based on region, sample size, cut-off value, detection time, initial treatment, and data type. The association between CPCs level and clinicopathological characteristics, including the International Staging System (ISS), Revised-ISS (R-ISS), and cytogenetic abnormalities were also evaluated. Statistical analyses were conducted using STATA 17.0 software. RESULTS: Twenty-two studies with a total of 5637 myeloma patients were enrolled in the current meta-analysis. The results indicated that myeloma patients with elevated CPCs were expected to have a poor OS (HR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.81-2.66, p < 0.001) and PFS (HR = 2.45, 95% CI: 1.93-3.12, p < 0.001). Subgroup analyses did not alter the prognostic role of CPCs, regardless of region, sample size, cut-off value, detection time, initial treatment, or data type. Moreover, the increased CPCs were significantly related to advanced tumour stage (ISS III vs. ISS I-II: pooled OR = 2.89, 95% CI: 2.41-3.46, p < 0.001; R-ISS III vs. R-ISS I-II: pooled OR = 3.65, 95% CI: 2.43-5.50, p < 0.001) and high-risk cytogenetics (high-risk vs. standard-risk: OR = 2.22, 95% CI: 1.60-3.08, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Our meta-analysis confirmed that the increased number of CPCs had a negative impact on the PFS and OS of MM patients. Therefore, CPCs could be a promising prognostic biomarker that helps with risk stratification and disease monitoring.

There is a growing need for an updated meta-analysis to identify the specific relationship between CPCs and the prognosis of MM based on the current research status.Our meta-analysis revealed that a high CPCs level was significantly associated with worse OS and PFS in MM patients.CPCs could be a promising predictive biomarker that helps with risk stratification and disease monitoring.

Co-delivery of fucoxanthin and Twist siRNA using hydroxyethyl starch-cholesterol self-assembled polymer nanoparticles for triple-negative breast cancer synergistic therapy.

INTRODUCTION: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer with an extremely dismal prognosis and few treatment options. As a desmoplastic tumor, TNBC tumor cells are girdled by stroma composed of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and their secreted stromal components. The rapidly proliferating tumor cells, together with the tumor stroma, exert additional solid tissue pressure on tumor vasculature and surrounding tissues, severely obstructing therapeutic agent from deep intratumoral penetration, and resulting in tumor metastasis and treatment resistance. OBJECTIVES: Fucoxanthin (FX), a xanthophyll carotenoid abundant in marine algae, has attracted widespread attention as a promising alternative candidate for tumor prevention and treatment. Twist is a pivotal regulator of epithelial to mesenchymal transition, and its depletion has proven to sensitize antitumor drugs, inhibit metastasis, reduce CAFs activation and the following interstitial deposition, and increase tumor perfusion. The nanodrug delivery system co-encapsulating FX and nucleic acid drug Twist siRNA (siTwist) was expected to form a potent anti-TNBC therapeutic cyclical feedback loop. METHODS AND RESULTS: Herein, our studies constituted a novel self-assembled polymer nanomedicine (siTwist/FX@HES-CH) based on the amino-modified hydroxyethyl starch (HES-NH2) grafted with hydrophobic segment cholesterol (CH). The MTT assay, flow cytometry apoptosis analysis, transwell assay, western blot, and 3D multicellular tumor spheroids growth inhibition assay all showed that siTwist/FX@HES-CH could kill tumor cells and inhibit their metastasis in a synergistic manner. The in vivo anti-TNBC efficacy was demonstrated that siTwist/FX@HES-CH remodeled tumor microenvironment, facilitated interstitial barrier crossing, killed tumor cells synergistically, drastically reduced TNBC orthotopic tumor burden and inhibited lung metastasis. CONCLUSION: Systematic studies revealed that this dual-functional nanomedicine that targets both tumor cells and tumor microenvironment significantly alleviates TNBC orthotopic tumor burden and inhibits lung metastasis, establishing a new paradigm for TNBC therapy.

Tanshinone IIA destabilizes SLC7A11 by regulating PIAS4-mediated SUMOylation of SLC7A11 through KDM1A, and promotes ferroptosis in breast cancer.

INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy in women with unfavorite prognosis. OBJECTIVES: Tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA) inhibits BC progression, however, the underlying mechanism remains largely undefined. METHODS: The cytotoxicity of Tan IIA was assessed by CCK-8 and LDH assays. Ferroptosis was monitored by the level of MDA, Fe2+, lipid ROS and GSH. IHC and western blot were employed to detect the localization and expression of SLC7A11, PIAS4, KDM1A and other key molecules. The SUMOylation of SLC7A11 was detected by Ni-beads pull-down assay and co-IP. Luciferase and ChIP assays were employed to detect the direct association between KDM1A and PIAS4 promoter. The proliferative and metastatic properties of BC cells were assessed by colony formation, CCK-8 and Transwell assays, respectively. The in vitro findings were verified in xenograft and lung metastasis models. RESULTS: Tan IIA promoted ferroptosis by suppressing SLC7A11 in BC cells. Silencing of PIAS4 or KDM1A inhibited cell growth and metastasis in BC. Mechanistically, PIAS4 facilitated the SUMOylation of SLC7A11 via direct binding to SLC7A11, and KDM1A acted as a transcriptional activator of PIAS4. Functional studies further revealed that Tan IIA decreased KDM1A expression, thus suppressing PIAS4 expression transcriptionally. The inhibition of PIAS4-dependent SUMOylation of SLC7A11 further induced ferroptosis, thereby inhibiting proliferation and metastasis in BC. CONCLUSION: Tan IIA promoted ferroptosis and inhibited tumor growth and metastasis via suppressing KDM1A/PIAS4/SLC7A11 axis.

Association between the oxidative balance score and low muscle mass in middle-aged US adults.

Background: Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) is a tool for assessing the oxidative stress-related exposures of diet and lifestyle. The study aimed to investigate the association between OBS and low muscle mass. Methods: Overall, 6,307 individuals over the age of 18 were assessed using data from the 2011 to 2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Weighted logistic regression and models were used, together with adjusted models. Results: There was a negative relationship between OBS and low muscle mass [odds ratio (OR): 0.96, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.94-0.97, p< 0.0001] using the first OBS level as reference. The values (all 95% CI) were 0.745 (0.527-1.054) for the second level, 0.650 (0.456-0.927) for the third level, and 0.326 (0.206-0.514) for the fourth level (P for trend <0.0001). Independent links with low muscle mass were found for diet and lifestyle factors. A restricted cubic spline model indicated a non-linear association between OBS and low muscle mass risk (P for non-linearity<0.05). In addition, the inflection points of the nonlinear curves for the relationship between OBS and risk of low muscle mass were 20. Conclusion: OBS and low muscle mass were found to be significantly negatively correlated. By modulating oxidative balance, a healthy lifestyle and antioxidant rich diet could be a preventive strategy for low muscle mass.

Upregulated miR-374a-5p drives psoriasis pathogenesis through WIF1 downregulation and Wnt5a/NF-κB activation.

BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an abundant class of non-coding RNA molecules. Recent studies have shown that multiple miRNAs are abnormally expressed in patients with psoriasis. The upregulation of miR-374a-5p has been associated with psoriasis severity. However, the specific role of miR-374a-5p in the pathogenesis of psoriasis remain unclear. METHODS: qRT-PCR was employed to validate the expression of miR-374a-5p in psoriatic lesions and in a psoriasis-like cell model constructed using a mixture of M5 (IL-17A, IL-22, OSM, IL-1α, and TNF-α). HaCaT cells were transfected with miR-374a-5p mimic/inhibitor, and assays including EdU, CCK-8, and flow cytometry were conducted to evaluate the effect of miR-374a-5p on cell proliferation. The expression of inflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α was verified by qRT-PCR. Bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay were performed to detect the downstream target genes and upstream transcription factors of miR-374a-5p, followed by validation of their expression through qRT-PCR and Western blotting. A psoriasis-like mouse model was established using imiquimod cream topical application. The psoriasis area and severity index scoring, hematoxylin-eosin histology staining, and Ki67 immunohistochemistry were employed to validate the effect of miR-374a-5p on the psoriatic inflammation phenotype after intradermal injection of miR-374a-5p agomir/NC. Additionally, the expression of pathway-related molecules and inflammatory factors such as IL-1ß, IL-17a, and TNF-α was verified by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Upregulation of miR-374a-5p was observed in psoriatic lesions and the psoriasis-like cell model. In vitro experiments demonstrated that miR-374a-5p not only promoted the proliferation of HaCaT cells but also upregulated the expression of inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. Furthermore, miR-374a-5p promoted skin inflammation and epidermal thickening in the Imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like mouse model. Mechanistic studies revealed that miR-374a-5p led to downregulation of WIF1, thereby activating the Wnt5a/NF-κB signaling pathway. The transcription factor p65 encoded by RELA, as a subunit of NF-κB, further upregulated the expression of miR-374a-5p upon activation. This positive feedback loop promoted keratinocyte proliferation and abnormal inflammation, thereby facilitating the development of psoriasis. CONCLUSION: Our findings elucidate the role of miR-374a-5p upregulation in the pathogenesis of psoriasis through inhibition of WIF1 and activation of the Wnt5a/NF-κB pathway, providing new potential therapeutic targets for psoriasis.

This review focuses on the current applications of CAR-based cellular platforms in non-neoplastic indications, such as autoimmune, infectious, fibrotic, and cellular senescence-associated diseases. Furthermore, we delve into the utilization of CARs in non-T cell populations such as natural killer (NK) cells and macrophages, highlighting their therapeutic potential in non-neoplastic conditions and offering the potential for targeted, personalized therapies to improve patient outcomes and enhanced quality of life.

Gene expression prognostic of early relapse risk in low-risk B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in children.

ETV6::RUNX1 is the most common fusion gene in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and is associated with favorable outcomes, especially in low-risk children. However, as many as 10% of children relapse within 3 years, and such early relapses have poor survival. Identifying children at risk for early relapse is an important challenge. We interrogated data from 87 children with low-risk ETV6::RUNX1-positive B-cell ALL and with available preserved bone marrow samples (discovery cohort). We profiled somatic point mutations in a panel of 559 genes and genome-wide transcriptome and single-nucleotide variants. We found high TIMD4 expression (> 85th-percentile value) at diagnosis was the most important independent prognostic factor of early relapse (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.07 [1.76, 14.62]; p = 0.03). In an independent validation cohort of low-risk ETV6::RUNX1-positive B-cell ALL (N = 68) high TIMD4 expression at diagnosis had an HR = 4.78 [1.07, 21.36] (p = 0.04) for early relapse. In another validation cohort including 78 children with low-risk ETV6::RUNX1-negative B-cell ALL, high TIMD4 expression at diagnosis had an HR = 3.93 [1.31, 11.79] (p = 0.01). Our results suggest high TIMD4 expression at diagnosis in low-risk B-cell ALL in children might be associated with high risk for early relapse.

Paradoxical herniation associated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy after decompressive craniectomy: A case report.

BACKGROUND: Whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can cause paradoxical herniation is still unclear. CASE SUMMARY: A 65-year-old patient who was comatose due to brain trauma underwent decompressive craniotomy and gradually regained consciousness after surgery. HBOT was administered 22 d after surgery due to speech impairment. Paradoxical herniation appeared on the second day after treatment, and the patient's condition worsened after receiving mannitol treatment at the rehabilitation hospital. After timely skull repair, the paradoxical herniation was resolved, and the patient regained consciousness and had a good recovery as observed at the follow-up visit. CONCLUSION: Paradoxical herniation is rare and may be caused by HBOT. However, the underlying mechanism is unknown, and the understanding of this phenomenon is insufficient. The use of mannitol may worsen this condition. Timely skull repair can treat paradoxical herniation and prevent serious complications.

CARD11 regulates the thymic Treg development in an NF-κB-independent manner.

Introduction: CARD11 is a lymphoid lineage-specific scaffold protein regulating the NF-κB activation downstream of the antigen receptor signal pathway. Defective CARD11 function results in abnormal development and differentiation of lymphocytes, especially thymic regulatory T cells (Treg). Method: In this study, we used patients' samples together with transgenic mouse models carrying pathogenic CARD11 mutations from patients to explore their effects on Treg development. Immunoblotting and a GFP receptor assay were used to evaluate the activation effect of CARD11 mutants on NF-κB signaling. Then the suppressive function of Tregs carrying distinct CARD11 mutations was measured by in vitro suppression assay. Finally, we applied the retroviral transduced bone marrow chimeras to rescue the Treg development in an NF-κB independent manner. Results and discuss: We found CARD11 mutations causing hyper-activated NF-κB signals also gave rise to compromised Treg development in the thymus, similar to the phenotype in Card11 deficient mice. This observation challenges the previous view that CARD11 regulates Treg lineage dependent on the NF-kB activation. Mechanistic investigations reveal that the noncanonical function CARD11, which negatively regulates the AKT/ FOXO1 signal pathway, is responsible for regulating Treg generation. Moreover, primary immunodeficiency patients carrying CARD11 mutation, which autonomously activates NF-κB, also represented the reduced Treg population in their peripheral blood. Our results propose a new regulatory function of CARD11 and illuminate an NF-κB independent pathway for thymic Treg lineage commitment.

Platelet RNA sequencing reveals profile of caffeic acid affecting hemostasis in mice.

Background: Caffeic acid (CA) is a naturally occurring phenolic compound with diverse pharmacologic properties. CA plays a crucial role in hemostasis by increasing platelet count. However, the mechanism by which CA regulates platelets to promote hemostasis remains unclear. Objectives: We aim to identify the potential target pathways and genes by which CA regulates platelets to promote hemostasis. Methods: We performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of mouse platelet pools in both the CA-gavaged group and phosphate-buffered saline-gavaged group. Results: The 12,934 expressed transcripts had been annotated after platelet RNA-seq. Compared with the phosphate-buffered saline group, 987 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, of which 466 were downregulated and 521 were upregulated in CA group. Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, and Reactome gene set enrichment analysis demonstrated that upregulated DEGs were enriched in the pathways of hemostasis, platelet activation, signaling, aggregation, and degranulation. Moreover, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Reactome gene set enrichment analysis revealed that 5 of the 25 cosignificantly upregulated DEGs were essential in CA-mediated platelet regulation to promote hemostasis. Conclusion: Our findings of platelet RNA-seq analysis demonstrate that CA regulates the gene expression of hemostasis and platelet activation-related pathways to increase platelet count and promote hemostasis. It will also provide reference molecular resources for future research on the function and mechanism by which CA regulates platelets to promote hemostasis.
