OBJECTIVE To explore the changes of brain white matter of the patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)with magnetic resonance diffusional kurtosis imaing(DKI).METHODS There were 38 patients with OSAHS examined by polysomnogram(PSG)from November 2017 to June 2021,and 32 non-OSAHS controls matched in gender and age who were included in this study.All the subjects were scanned by DKI.The different encephalic regions through comparing kurtosis fractional anisotropy(KFA)values of all encephalic regions between the two groups were found,and the relationship between the KFA values of the different encephalic regions in OSAHS patients and the apnea-hypopnea index(AHI),lowest saturation oxygen(LSaO2)and the percent of the total record time spent below 90%oxygen saturation(TS90%)in PSG were analyzed.RESULTS The KFA values of white matter fiber tracts in corpus callosum,bilateral corona radiata,cingulate gyrus,right superior cerebellar peduncle and inferior cerebellar peduncle of OSAHS group were obviously lower than control group(P<0.05).After controlling for age and body mass index(BMI),the partial correlation between AHI and the KFA values of corpus callosum,left posterior corona radiata,right anterior corona radiata,cingulate gyrus in OSAHS group were also negative(r=-0.344,-0.380,-0.406,-0.53,P<0.05).The partial correlation between LSaO2 and the KFA values of corpus callosum,left posterior corona radiata,right anterior corona radiata,cingulate gyrus,right superior cerebellar peduncle in OSAHS group were also positive(r=0.366,0.406,0.446,0.404,0.342,P<0.05).The partial correlation between TS90%and the KFA values of corpus callosum,left posterior corona radiata,right anterior corona radiata,cingulate gyrus,right superior cerebellar peduncle and inferior cerebellar peduncle in OSAHS group were also negative(r=-0.414,-0.352,-0.355,-0.336,-0.456,-0.360,P<0.05).CONCLUSION Recurrent apnea and hypoxemia at night of OSAHS patients can cause damage to white matter fibers in parts of encephalic regions.
RESUMEN
Spastic paraplegia type 4 (SPG4) is the most common type of autosomally inherited spastic paraplegia. Its main clinical features include typical simple hereditary spastic paraplegia, with neurological impairments limited to lower limb spasticity, hypertonic bladder dysfunction, and mild weakening of lower limb vibration sensation, without accompanying features such as nerve atrophy, ataxia, cognitive impairment, seizures, and muscle tone disorders. SPAST is the main pathogenic gene underlying SPG4, and various pathogenic SPAST variants have been discovered. This disease has featured a high degree of clinical heterogeneity, and the same pathogenic variant can have different age of onset and severity among different patients and even within the same family. There is a lack of systematic research on the correlation between the genotype and phenotype of SPG4, and the pathogenic mechanism has remained controversial. This article has provided a review for the clinical characteristics, pathogenic gene characteristics, correlation between the genotype and phenotype, and pathogenic mechanism of this disease, with an aim to provide reference for its clinical diagnosis and treatment.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the relationship among happiness, resilience, optimistic intelligence quotient and perceived social support in patients with advanced gynecological cancer.Methods:A total of 269 patients with advanced gynecological cancer from January 2018 to January 2019 in three top three hospitals in Shanghai were selected as subjects by convenient sampling.The basic information questionnaire, Memorial University of New-foundland scale of happiness, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale simplified Chinese version, Optimistic Intelligence Quotient Questionnaire and Perceived Social Support Scale were used to investigate.Results:The score of happiness was (32.45±6.37), the score of resilience was (30.64±8.78),the score of optimistic intelligence quotient was (62.74±12.49) and the score of perceived social support was (68.14±4.25) in patients with advanced gynecological cancer. Linear regression equation analysis showed that happiness and optimistic intelligence quotient × happiness had significant predictive effect on resilience ( β values were 0.547, 0.016, P < 0.05), optimistic intelligence quotient had no significant predictive effect on resilience ( P>0.05), and optimistic intelligence quotient, happiness, resilience, optimistic intelligence quotient×happiness had significant predictive effect on perceived social support ( β values were 0.015-0.251, P<0.01). Happiness could regulate the direct path and the first half of the mediating effect of resilience between perceived social support and optimistic intelligence quotient. According to Johnson-Neyman's analysis, the boundary value of the moderating effect of happiness between optimistic intelligence quotient and resilience was 26.19, and the boundary value of the moderating effect of happiness between optimistic intelligence quotient and perceived social support was 22.08. Conclusions:There is a positive correlation between optimistic intelligence quotient and perceived social support in patients with advanced gynecological cancer. Resilience can play a significant mediating role between optimistic intelligence quotient and perceived social support under the regulation of happiness, which can provide corresponding psychological intervention for patients with advanced gynecological cancer.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the role of adiponectin in sevoflurane pretreatment-induced improvement in cognitive function in mice with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R).Methods:Thirty SPF healthy adult male wild-type C57 mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group Sham), myocardial I/R group (group MI/R) and sevoflurane pretreatment group (group SP). Another 10 SPF healthy male adiponectin knockout SPF mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were selected and served as APNKO group.Myocardial I/R was induced by 30 min occlusion of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery followed by reperfusion.In SP and APNKO groups, sevoflurane pretreatment included 3 cycles of 10-minute inhalation of 2% sevoflurane-93% O 2-5% CO 2 interspersed with 15-minute inhalation of 95% O 2-5% CO 2, and then the model was established.At 1, 2 and 4 days of reperfusion, cognitive function was assessed by Morris water maze test. Results:There was no significant difference in swimming velocity at each time point between the 4 groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group Sham, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was decreased at each time point in group MI/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group MI/R, the escape latency was significantly shortened, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased at each time point in group SP ( P<0.05). Compared with group SP, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was decreased at each time point in group APNKO ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Adiponectin is involved in the process of sevoflurane pretreatment-induced improvement in cognitive function in mice with myocardial I/R.
RESUMEN
Photoperiod plays an important role in transformation from vegetative growth to reproductive growth in plants. CONSTANS (CO), as a unique gene in the photoperiod pathway, responds to changes of day length to initiate flowering in the plant. In this study, the expression level of FaCONSTANS (FaCO) gene under long-day, short-day, continuous light and continuous darkness conditions was analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR. We constructed the over-expression vector p1300-FaCO and infected into Arabidopsis thaliana by Agrobacterium-mediated method. We constructed the silencing vector p1300-FaCO-RNAi and infected into Festuca arundinacea by Agrobacterium-mediated method. The expression of FaCO gene was regulated by photoperiod. The over-expression of FaCO promoted flowering in wild type of Arabidopsis thaliana under long day condition and rescued the late flowering phenotype in co-2 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana. Silencing FaCO gene in Festuca arundinacea by RNAi showed late-flowering phenotype or always kept in the vegetative growth stage. Our understanding the function of FaCO in flowering regulation will help further understand biological function of this gene in Festuca arundinacea.

Autophagy is essential for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and its dysfunction has been linked to various diseases. Autophagy is a membrane driven process and tightly regulated by membrane-associated proteins. Here, we summarized membrane lipid composition, and membrane-associated proteins relevant to autophagy from a spatiotemporal perspective. In particular, we focused on three important membrane remodeling processes in autophagy, lipid transfer for phagophore elongation, membrane scission for phagophore closure, and autophagosome-lysosome membrane fusion. We discussed the significance of the discoveries in this field and possible avenues to follow for future studies. Finally, we summarized the membrane-associated biochemical techniques and assays used to study membrane properties, with a discussion of their applications in autophagy.

RESUMEN
Amyloidosis is a group of disorders with diverse etiology and characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils formed by misfolded proteins. It may ultimately result in multiple tissue injury and progressive disruption of organ function. Amyloidosis is rare and amyloidosis involving gastrointestinal tract is relatively rare,so that gastrointestinal amyloidosis is easily to be misdiagnosed in clinical practice and the prognosis is usually poor. In this review article,the progress in research on amyloidosis,especially gastrointestinal amyloidosis was briefly summarized for improving the understanding,diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal amyloidosis.
