Objective To investigate the preventive effects of emilia sonchifolia on experimental hepatic steatosis in rats and its molecular mechanism.Methods Seventy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups: normal control, model, high dose emilia sonchifolia, low dose emilia sonchifolia groups and high dose emilia sonchifolia + phosphorylated extracellular signal regulated protein kinase 1/2 (pERK1/2) inhibitor (PD98059) group (PD group). In normal control group, the rats were fed with normal diet, and in the other four groups, the rats were fed with high fat and low protein diet combined with 30% carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) peanut oil 2 mL/kg subcutaneous injection, once every 3 days for consecutive 3 weeks to establish animal models with hepatic steatosis. In emilia sonchifolia high and low dose groups, 5.0 g/kg and 2.5 g/kg doses of emilia sonchifolia were given respectively by gavage, once a day. In PD group, after administration of emilia sonchifolia high dose by gavage once a day, additionally PD98059 0.3 mg/kg was injected through a tail vein, once a week. After 3 weeks, all rats were switched to normal diet and treatment continued as before. At the end of the 5th week, liver tissues were taken for pathological analyses. The serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG) were determinated by automatic biochenical analyzer. The positive cell count and protein expressions of sterol-regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP-1), pERK1/2, toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) and high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) were tested by immunohistochemistry, Western Blot and flow cytometry. The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malonaldehyde (MDA) in liver cell homogenate were detected by hydroxylamine and TBA method.Results Compared with the model group, the lobular inflammation in high and low dose emilia sonchifolia groups and PD group was attenuated (1.50±0.53, 1.80±0.43, 1.20±0.42 vs. 2.30±0.48), and ALT, AST, TC, TG, SREBP-1, and MDA were significantly decreased, the decrease in high dose emilia sonchifolia group being the most significant [ALT (U/L): 51.91±6.95 vs. 66.50±12.15, AST (U/L): 125.70±5.62 vs. 147.10±10.52, TC (mmol/L): 1.79±1.04 vs. 2.81±1.08, TG (mmol/L): 0.87±0.55 vs. 1.17±0.67, SREBP-1: (30.60±5.56)% vs. (53.10±5.02)%, MDA (nmol/mg): 5.20±0.87 vs. 10.61±5.45,P < 0.05 orP < 0.01]; the relative expression levels of pERK1/2, TLR4, and HMGB1 showed no statistically significant differences between each treated group and the model group [pERK1/2: (43.77±4.93)% vs. (46.83±5.27)%, TLR4 (rmfi): 69.12±24.64 vs. 69.08±24.32, HMGB1 (rmfi): 22.93±14.88 vs. 33.17±13.29, allP > 0.05]. While the above index values in PD group were close to those in high dose emilia sonchifolia group, showing that PD98059 had no impact on emilia sonchifolia's action.Conclusions Emilia sonchifolia can alleviate hepatic injury and attenuate lobular inflammation in rat experimental hepatic steatosis. Its mechanism is possibly related to the reduction of oxidative stress reaction, and SREBP-1 may be as a mediator involved in the action.

Objective To discuss how to assess scientifically on the outcome of clinical application with peripheral nerve graft materials. Methods All Pubmed database from 1990 to 2010 were retrieved,and searched the English literatures about the application with peripheral nerve graft materials. The literatures consisted of original clinical research and review excluding animal experiments, repetitive research and irrelevant literatures. The clinical trials data of U.S. was also our target. The information about the safety and effectiveness of peripheral nerve graft materials and related statistical problems were discussed. Results Totally 1578 literatures were identified. Following reading titles and abstracts, we excluded some irrelevant articles. Finally 31 literatures and 2 issue of clinical research from clinical trial data of U.S. were included. After analysis on the literatures, we gained the following results: a remarkable degree of homogeneity among patients can be formed by setting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. For the assessment of proper digital nerve repair, Macknnon- Dellon evaluation is commonly applied, but for the composite nerve, BMRC evaluation is the main method and electromyography can be used as a secondary choice. The safety of peripheral nerve graft materials cannot be evaluated throughout one's life according to the current level of science and technology. It should be evaluated by long-term clinical observation. Randomized clinical trials with random grouping was a gold standard for clinical trials with a good balance and strong comparability. However, non-randomized controlled trials also have an important value. Conclusion It is impossible to make all affected factors homogeneity in a limited timespace conditions of clinical trial. However, we can try our best to keep factors homogeneity to maximum degree by setting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The scientific assessment of outcome of peripheral nerve repair can be carried out with reasonable and internationally recognized nerve function evaluation methods, strict follow-up time and statistics programme meeting the clinical requirement.

Objective:To confirm the reuse of mismatched regenerated motor axons of brachial plexus and explore the effect of target organs on their regeneration in a rat model.Methods:This study was carried out between January 2021 and December 2021 at the research laboratory of the Department of Microsurgery, Orthopaedic Trauma and Hand Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Animals were randomly assigned into 2 groups, as a regeneration group (RGen) with 5 subgroups and a reuse group (RUs) with 3 subgroups. There were 6 rats per subgroup with 42 rats in total. It was observed that in the groups of RGen1-4, after the transection and suture of the musculocutaneous nerve, the motor axons of the proximal end could accurately grow into the distal corresponding endoneural tube. It was also observed that in the mismatched regenerated group, motor axons were the axons that grew into the endoneurial tube of the lateral forearm cutaneous nerve (LFCN), and other non-target organ contacts were made to the regenerated nerves after mismatch. It was specifically further divided into RGen1, the group without an organ for nerve to make contact with; RGen2, the group with skin as the target organ with nerves contact by neurorrhaphy; RGen3, the group with skin as the target organ with originally reserved natural nerve contact; RGen4, the group with muscle as the target organ with nerves contact by neurorrhaphy and RGen5, a control group. After 8 weeks, the positive area (PA), mean density (MD) and integral optical density (IOD) were measured, with AChE and ChAT fluorescence staining of the medial branch of LFCN, to evaluate the regenerated nerves after mismatch. Of the RUs group, firstly, the innervating branches of the flexor carpi radialis (FCR) were dissected and exposed, then further assigned according to initially innervated FCR (RUs1), contacted with regenerated nerves after mismatch (RUs2) and denervated (RUs3), respectively. After 8 weeks, compound muscle action potential (CMAP) and wet weight ratio of FCR were taken. Masson staining of FCR was also performed to evaluate muscle reinnervation by the regenerated nerves after mismatch. Data analysis with One-Way ANOVA and Bonferroni 0.05 indicated a statistically significant difference.Results:In the RGen groups, after AChE staining, the PA, MD and IOD of RGen3 and RGen4 were higher than that of RGen1 and RGen5, and PA of RGen4 were higher than that of RGen2, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). After ChAT staining, the values of PA and IOD of RGen3 and RGen4 were higher than that of RGen1 and RGen5, and PA of RGen4 were higher than that of RGen2, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). In the RUs, electrophysiological assessment showed that no CMAP was observed in RUs3, there was no significant difference in Latency of RUs1 and RUs2. The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Wet weight rate of muscle of RUs1 (98.91%±3.86%) was higher than that of RUs3 (86.67%±4.68%) with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.01), but no significant difference when compared with RU2 (92.74%±3.88%). Masson staining showed that the CVF value of RUs2 (8.61%±1.16%) was significantly higher than that of RUs1 (3.17%±0.76%), and statistic significantly lower than that of RUs3 (16.44%±2.26%)( P<0.01). Conclusion:Target organ contact can promote the regenerated nerves after mismatched regeneration, and the muscle target organs exhibit greater facilitation than the cutaneous target organs. Besides, regenerated nerves after mismatch can establish effective innervation with muscle target organs, comfirming their effective reuse.
