Objective To observe the effect of aerobic exercise of different intensities on type Ⅱ collagen,glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and chondrocyte apoptosis in rabbits modeling knee osteoarthritis (OA),so as to explore the preventive effect and its possible mechanism.Methods Twenty healthy New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into Groups A,B,C and D,each of 5.Group A was allowed free activity in a cage for 9 weeks.Group B was allowed free activity for 4 weeks,then an OA model was established using papain and confirmed via MRI 1 week later,Another 4 weeks of free activity were then allowed.Groups C and group D were given running training for 20 minutes a day at 0.5 km/h,3 times a week,and then 20 minutes a day at 1.5 km/h,5 days a week on a treadmill for 4 weeks.Nine weeks later,all 4 groups of rabbits were killed and the articular cartilage damage of each group was compared using Mankin scoring,and expression of type Ⅱ collagen,GAG content and chondrocyte apoptosis in the cartilage.Results After the intervention,the average Mankin score,expression of type Ⅱ collagen and GAG content of groups B,C and D were significantly lower than those of group A,and all of those values in group B were significantly lower than those of group D.After 9 weeks the chondrocyte apoptosis rate of group A was significantly lower than that of the other groups,and that of groups C and D was significantly lower than that of group B.Conclusion Aerobic exercise may prevent knee articular cartilage degeneration through inhibiting reduction in the amount of type Ⅱ collagen and GAG in the cartilage matrix.It may be related to decreasing the chondrocyte apoptosis.

Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.

As a rehabilitation strategy in the project of community development, community-based rehabilitation (CBR) can improve quality of life effectively in the community disabled, possessing the characteristics of wide coverage, convenience, being economical and effectiveness, so it has been developed and promoted in our country. At present, there are various problems in CBR, which could not meet the diverse demand of people with disablities in community. As a result, it is important to propagandize rehabilitation concept, built rehabilitation team, strengthen multidisciplinary cooperation and emphasize the development of the disabled rehabilitation system in rural community.

Objective:To evaluate the objective imaging markers of cognitive impairment in patients with end-stage renal disease by MRI intravoxel incoherent motion.Methods:A total of 40 patients with ESRD were enrolled in the Department of Nephrology, Changzhou Second Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2019 to August 2020, and 24 healthy controls were prospectively enrolled at the same time.All subjects performed with MRI scan were collected, and the slow apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC slow) of the corresponding brain regions were obtained .The cognitive function was evaluated by the Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA). Two-sample t test was used to analyze the difference of ADC slow and cognitive score between the two groups.Pearson correlation analysis was performed among the cognitive function score of end-stage renal disease and ADC slow value. Results:(1) The score of the intelligence test scale in the ESRD group (23.30±1.76) was significantly lower than that of the healthy control group (27.92±1.00) ( P<0.01). The ADC slow values of bilateral frontal lobe, hippocampus, and insula brain areas (respectively(0.648±0.035), (0.633±0.043), (0.762±0.043), (0.756±0.042), (0.792±0.048), (0.776±0.054))in the ESRD group were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group ((0.600±0.039), 0.610±0.037, (0.725±0.059), (0.711±0.054), (0.740±0.063), (0.716±0.051)) ( P<0.01). (2) Pearson correlation analysis showed that the ADC slow values of bilateral insula and right hippocampus in the ESRD group were negatively correlated with MoCA scales ( r=-0.38, -0.38, -0.66, all P<0.05). Conclusion:ADC slow value in IVIM can better reflect the changes of cognitive function impairment in ESRD patients.

Conclusion:The topological structure of brain functional network is abnormal in ESRD patients, which can affect the cognitive function of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the regulatory effects of miR-30e-5p on biological behaviors of colorectal cancer cells and the role of PTEN/CXCL12 axis in mediating these effects. METHODS: Bioinformatic analysis was performed to explore the differential expression of miR-30e-5p between colorectal cancer tissues and normal tissues. RT-qPCR was used to detect the differential expression of miR-30e-5p in intestinal epithelial cells and colorectal cancer cells. Bioinformatics and dual luciferase assay were used to predict and validate the targeting relationship between miR-30e-5p and PTEN. Human and murine colorectal cancer cell lines were transfected with miR-30e-5p mimics, miR-30e-5p inhibitor, miR-30e-5p mimics+LV-PTEN, or miR-30e-5p inhibitor + si-PTEN. The changes in biological behaviors of the cells were detected using plate clone formation assay, CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry, scratch healing and Transwell assays. PTEN and CXCL12 expressions in the cancer cells were detected by Western blotting. The effects of miR-30e-5p inhibitor on colorectal carcinogenesis and development were observed in nude mice. RESULTS: Bioinformatic analysis showed that miR-30e-5p expression was significantly elevated in colorectal cancer tissues compared with the adjacent tissue (P < 0.01). Higher miR-30e-5p expression was detected in colorectal cancer cell lines than in intestinal epithelial cells (P < 0.01). Dual luciferase assay confirmed the targeting relationship between miR-30e-5p and PTEN (P < 0.05). Transfection with miR-30e-5p mimics significantly enhanced proliferation and metastasis and inhibited apoptosis of the colorectal cancer cells (P < 0.05), and co-transfection with LV-PTEN obviously reversed these changes (P < 0.05). MiR-30e-5p mimics significantly inhibited PTEN expression and enhanced CXCL12 expression in the cancer cells (P < 0.01), and miR-30e-5p inhibitor produced the opposite effect. Transfection with miR-30e-5p inhibitor caused cell cycle arrest in the cancer cells, which was reversed by co-transfection with si-PTEN (P < 0.05). In the in vivo experiments, the colorectal cancer cells transfected with miR-30e-5p inhibitor showed significantly lowered tumorigenesis. CONCLUSION Overexpression of miR-30e-5p promotes the malignant behaviors of colorectal cancer cells by downregulating PTEN to activate the CXCL12 axis.
