Aim To investigate the effect of 8-bromo-7-methoxychrysin(BrMChR) on apoptosis of human gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cell line.Methods SGC-7901 cells were cultured and the inhibitory effect of BrMChR on the proliferation of SGC-7901 cell line was measured by MTT assay.The apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells induced by BrMChR was analyzed using flow cytometry (FCM) with PI staining.DNA ladder bands were observed by DNA agarose gel electrophoresis.Results MTT assay suggested that BrMChR markedly inhibited the proliferation of SGC-7901 cells in a concentration-dependent manner,its IC50 was 2.6 ?mol?L-1,the potency of BrMChR was 8 times more than that of lead compound,chrysin (ChR,IC50 was 16.5 ?mol?L-1),and was 3 times more than that of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU,IC50 was 7.7 ?mol?L-1). FCM with PI staining indicated the apoptotic rate of SGC-7901 cell line treated with BrMChR (1.25,5.00,20.00 ?mol?L-1) for 48 h was (19.8%?0.2%),(36.8%?1.9%) and (45.5%?3.5%) respectively and the rate treated with BrMChR (1.25 ?mol?L-1) was higher than that treated with ChR (20.00 ?mol?L-1,12.9%?1.5%). DNA agarose gel electrophoresis showed that when treated with BrMChR(20.00 ?mol?L-1) for 48 h,the gene DNA of SGC-7901 cells presented typical DNA ladder bands which could attenuated by the effect of pre-incubation of GW9662(10.00 ?mol?L-1),a blocker of PPAR?.Conclusion BrMChR might induce apoptosis of SGC-7901 cell line partially by activating PPAR?.

Aim To investigate whether 8-bromo-7-methoxychrysin ( BrMC ) can reverse the epithelial-mesenchymal transition ( EMT) in sphere-forming cells (SFCs) derived from cervical cancer SiHa cell line. Methods Human cervical cancer SiHa cell line was cultured in vitro and then SFCs were obtained from Si-Ha cell line using suspension culture with the stem-condition culture system. After treatment with BrMC for 72 h, the morphology of SFCs of SiHa cell line was observed via monolayer adherence culture. The expres-sion levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Twist1 pro-teins were analyzed using western blot assay. Results SFCs of SiHa cell line presented the mesenchyme-like( spindle-shaped) cell shape and exhibited reduced E-cadherin and elevated N-cadherin protein expres-sion, compared with the parental cells. After treatment with BrMC(1. 0 μmol·L-1 ) for 72 h, SFCs of SiHa cell line changed from spindle-shaped cells in to poly-gon shaped cells under monolayer adherence culture. After treatment with BrMC for 24 h, the expression lev-els of E-cadherin protein were up-regulated and the ex-pression levels of N-cadherin and Twist1 proteins were decreased in SFCs derived from SiHa cell line. Con-clusion BrMC effectively reverses EMT of SFCs de-rived from cervical cancer SiHa cell line, and its mechanism is involved in down-regulating the expres-sion of Twist protein.

OBJECTIVETo observe the change of peripheral blood Th17 cells in patients with different kinds of CRSwNPs and the relationship between the frequency of Th17 cells and inflammatory cell density in nasal polyps tissue, and to explore the correlation between levels of peripheral blood Th17 cells and prognosis of patients with CRSwNPs.METHODSEighty one patients with CRSwNPs and 20 controls were recruited in this research. Flow cytometer was used to detect the expression of peripheral blood Th17 cells. The number per 10000μm2 of infiltrated inflammatory cells in nasal polyp tissue (including eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes and plasma cells) was counted at a high-power field. The CT scores were evaluated by Lund-Mackay system and the nasal endoscopy scores were graded according to Lund-Mackay methods. RESULTSThe percentages of Th17 cells in patients with E-CRSwNPs and NE-CRSwNPs were 2.10% (3.75%, 1.40%)和1.10% (1.70%, 0.73%). There was significant difference between the two groups (Mann-WhitneyU=358.0,Z=-2.965, P=0.001). Furthermore, a positive association between the percentage of Th17 cells in peripheral blood and the eosinophil density of nasal polyp (r=0.408,P<0.001) was demonstrated. The percentage of Th17 cell in peripheral blood was significantly correlated with the endoscopic score of CRSwNPs at third month after the operation (r=0.458, P<0.001).CONCLUSIONThl7 might be involved in the pathogenesis and prognosisof eosinophilic CRSwNPs.

Objective: Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was used to assess brain oxygenated hemoglobin (Oxy Hb) activation in college students with different sleep quality under the verbal fluency task (VFT), so as to better provide a theoretical basis for the neural mechanism for sleep quality improvement of college students. Methods: A simple random sampling method was used to investigate 96 college students from one university during 2020 and 2021. According to the results of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), participants were divided into 3 groups: good sleep quality group( n =45), moderate group( n =33), and poor group( n =18). The 53 channel near infrared spectroscopy to collect cerebral blood oxygen signals under the VFT task. Association between oxygenated hemoglobin with sleep quality was analyzed. Results: About 18.75% of college students reported sleep quality problems, including long sleep latency (0.97±0.97) and poor subjective sleep quality (0.96±0.72). There was a significant negative correlation between PSQI score and average oxygenated hemoglobin (Avg HbO) index of dorsolateral prefrontal lobe ( r =-0.23, P =0.03). The Avg HbO index differed significantly between good and poor sleep quality groups on dorsolateral prefrontal lobe( P =0.05). Conclusion This study verified that there is a positive correlation between sleep quality and cognitive ability among college students. The fNIRS technique could accurately collect blood oxygen signals from dorsolateral prefrontal lobe during cognitive tasks, which proves to be an effective tool for identifying sleep quality of college students.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of tumescent anaesthesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC). Methods We analyzed the data of 71 patients who underwent LC for gallbladder benign disease. Anesthesia swelling fluid was injected in 37 cases before the operation in the gallbladder triangle( group D)and another 34 cases received no injection(group C). SBP,DBP,HR and Spo2 were monitored at 4 min before gallbladder traction(T1),1 min(T2),6 min(T3)and 11 min after gallbladder traction(T4),and when the gallbladder was dissected from gallbladder bed completely(T5). The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative exhaust time,time of getting out of bed after the surgery and length of stay were recorded. The gallbladder rupture, vascular injury ,bile duct injury ,intestinal injury ,placement of drainage tube ,intra-abdominal hemorrhage , intraoperative use of atropine or ephedrine and nausea and vomiting 24 hours after the operation were recorded. Results In group C,SBP,DBP and HR were significantly decreased at T2-T4 when compared with those at T1, and were significantly lower when compared with those in group D(P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in oxygen saturation between the two groups(P > 0.05). There were shorter operation time and less intraoperative blood loss in group D when compared with those in group C and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). The anus exhaust time,time of getting out of bed after the surgery,length of stay,intraoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage and nausea and vomiting in the two groups indicated no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Gallbladder damage,vascular injury,placement of drainage tube and the incidence of adverse event were less in group D than those in group C. Conclusion Swelling anesthesia in LC can shorten the operation time ,induce less postoperative complications and maintain blood circulation stability.

Objective To evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of syphilis prevention and control in Hubei Province from 2011 to 2020, to summarize the experience and practice, to analyze the existing problems and causes, and to study and put forward policy and strategy suggestions, so as to provide reference for formulating the national ^“14th five-year plan^” and carrying out the next step of prevention and control work. Methods The National STD Prevention and Control Management Information System, STD Prevention and Control New Media Health Service Platform, National AIDS Comprehensive Prevention Information System, and National Management Information System for the Prevention of AIDS, Syphilis, and Mother-to-Child Transmission of Hepatitis B were used to analyze and evaluate the completion of main prevention and control indicators in Hubei Province. Results Among the 16 evaluation indexes, 10 indexes including the effectiveness of syphilis promotion and training for various groups of people, the proportion of pregnant women undergoing syphilis testing in the monitoring and testing work, and the effectiveness of syphilis prevention and treatment, all met the requirements of the plan. In addition, some of the 5 indexes failed to meet the requirements of the plan. Conclusion Hubei Province has fairly fulfilled the work requirements of the Plan. It is still necessary to strengthen the syphilis prevention and control to ensure the urban pregnant women infected with syphilis and their infants to receive standardized STD diagnosis and treatment services, and the drug users in the drug maintenance treatment clinic to receive free syphilis testing, and to provide referral services for the syphilis antibody positive patients at AIDS voluntary counseling and testing points.
