Objective:To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the viability of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) of morphine-addicted mice.Methods:Experiment Ⅰ Thirty SPF healthy adult male C57BL/6 mice, aged 8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=10 each) using the random number table method: normal saline group (NS group), dexmedetomidine 50 μg/kg group (DEX50 group), and dexmedetomidine 100 μg/kg group (DEX100 group). A morphine addiction model was established by intraperitoneal injection of increasing doses of morphine (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 50 mg/kg) for 6 consecutive days in mice. After the successful establishment of the model, dexmedetomidine 50 and 100 μg/kg were intraperitoneally injected for 14 consecutive days in group DEX50 and group DEX100 respectively, while normal saline was given instead in group C. The conditioned place preference (CPP) experiment was conducted every other day. Experiment Ⅱ Thirty SPF healthy adult male C57BL/6 mice, aged 8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=10 each) by the random number table method: control group (C group), morphine group (Mor group) and dexmedetomidine 50 μg/kg group (DEX50 group). Normal saline was intraperitoneally injected for 10 consecutive days in group C. Morphine with increasing doses was intraperitoneally injected for 6 days, and then normal saline was intraperitoneally injected for 4 consecutive days in group Mor. Morphine with increasing doses was intraperitoneally injected for 6 days, and then dexmedetomidine 50 μg/kg was intraperitoneally injected for 4 consecutive days in group DEX50. The mice were anesthetized at 90 min after the last intraperitoneal injection, brain tissues were harvested, and the corresponding brain slices of the VTA were selected for c-Fos immunofluorescence staining. Experiment Ⅲ Ten dopamine transporter-Cre recombinase mice were divided into 2 groups ( n=5 each) by the random number table method: morphine group (Mor group) and morphine+ dexmedetomidine 50 μg/kg group (Mor+ DEX group). Stereotaxic viral injection was performed in the brain. rAAV-EF1α-DIO-GCaMP6s was injected into the VTA and an optical fiber was implanted. Three weeks later, a morphine addiction model was established based on Experiment Ⅰ for the CPP experiment, morphine was intraperitoneally injected in group Mor, and morphine and dexmedetomidine were intraperitoneally injected in group Mor+ DEX. The viral fluorescence signals were recorded at 5 min before and 20 min after the drug administration in the three groups. Results:Experiment Ⅰ There was no statistically significant difference in the CPP scores after developing the morphine addiction model among the three groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group NS, the CPP scores were significantly decreased at 4-14 days of the continuous administration in group DEX50 and group DEX100 ( P<0.05). Experiment Ⅱ Compared with group C, the number of c-Fos positive cells in the VTA was significantly increased in group Mor ( P<0.05). Compared with group Mor, the number of c-Fos positive cells in the VTA was significantly decreased in group DEX ( P<0.05). Experiment Ⅲ Compared with that before administration, the calcium signals of dopaminergic neurons in the VTA were significantly enhanced in group Mor ( P<0.05), and no statistically significant difference was found in the calcium signals of dopaminergic neurons in the VTA in group Mor+ DEX ( P>0.05). Compared with group Mor, no statistically significant difference was found in the calcium signals of dopaminergic neurons in the VTA before drug administration ( P>0.05), and the calcium signals of dopaminergic neurons in the VTA were significantly weakened after administration in group Mor+ DEX ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which dexmedetomidine promotes the extinction of morphine addiction is related to the inhibition of the viability of dopaminergic neurons in the VTA of mice.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between hippocampal miR-3065-5p and insulin-like growth factor-1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(IGF-1/PI3K/Akt)signaling pathway in a mouse model of perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND).Methods:Eighty clean-grade healthy male C75BL/6 mice, aged 12-14 weeks, weighing 20-30 g, were divided them into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using the random number table method: control group (C group), PND group, miR-3065-5p agonist group (Ag group) and miR-3065-5p agonist negative control group (Ag-NC group). PND model was prepared by internal fixation of tibial fracture under anesthesia with 1.5% isoflurane. Two days before developing the model, miR-3065-5p agomir 2 μl was injected into the lateral ventricle in Ag group, miR-3065-5p agomir negative control 2 μl was injected into the lateral ventricle in Ag-NC group. Morris water maze test and open field test were performed at 7 days after surgery. The mice were sacrificed after the end of test, and hippocampal tissues were obtained for determination of the expression of miR-3065-5p, IGF-1 mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and expression of IGF-1, phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt), phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (p-GSK3β) and Bcl-2 (by Western blot). Results:There was no significant difference in each parameter in the open field test among the four groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group C, the postoperative escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time of stay at the target quadrant was decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was reduced, the expression of miR-3065-5p was up-regulated, and the expression of IGF-1 mRNA, Bcl-2 mRNA, IGF-1, p-Akt, p-GSK3β and Bcl-2 was down-regulated in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with PND group and Ag-NC group, the postoperative escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time of stay at the target quadrant was decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was reduced, the expression of miR-3065-5p was up-regulated, and the expression of IGF-1 mRNA, Bcl-2 mRNA, IGF-1, p-Akt, p-GSK3β and Bcl-2 was down-regulated in Ag group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulation of miR-3065-5p can inhibit the activation of IGF-1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which might be one of the mechanisms of PND developed in mice.

Objective:To investigate the effects of mild hypothermia on microglia polarization and janus kinase 2/signal transduction and transcriptional activation factor 3 (JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:Forty-five clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) by the random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral I/R group (I/R) and mild hypothermia group (H group). In I/R group and H group, cerebral I/R was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion using a nylon thread in anesthetized animals, the nylon thread was removed to restore the perfusion after 2 h of occlusion, and the rectal temperature was maintained at 36-37 ℃ during the period. Group H was wiped with 75% alcohol for 3 h starting from the time point immediately after reperfusion, and the rectal temperature was maintained at 32-33℃. Modified neurological severity score (mNSS) was evaluated at 24 h of reperfusion. Animals were then sacrificed for determination of the cerebral infarct size (using TTC staining), expression of M1 marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), M2 marker arginase 1(Arg-1), phosphorylated JAK2(p-JAK2)and phosphorylated STAT3(p-STAT3)(by Western blot), expression of iNOS mRNA and Arg-1 mRNA (by quantitative polymerase chain reaction), and contents of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:Compared with group S, mNSS and cerebral infarct size were significantly increased, the expression of iNOS, Arg-1 protein and mRNA in cerebral ischemic penumbral zone was up-regulated, and the p-JAK2/JAK2 ratio, p-STAT3/STAT3 ratio, and contents of IL-6 and IL-10 were increased in the other two groups ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group, mNSS and cerebral infarct size were significantly decreased, the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA in cerebral ischemic penumbral zone was down-regulated, the expression of Arg-1 and mRNA was up-regulated, and the p-JAK2/JAK2 ratio, p-STAT3/STAT3 ratio and IL-6 content were decreased, and the IL-10 content was increased in group H ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Mild hypothermia can promote the polarization shift of microglia from M1 to M2 phenotype during cerebral I/R and inhibit the central inflammatory responses, and the mechanism may be related to inhibition of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in rats.

Objective:To evaluate the role of miR-124-3p in reduction of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury by electrostimulation preconditioning in microglia and its relationship with microglial polarization.Methods:The well-growing BV2 cells were divided into 4 groups ( n=30 each) by the random number table method: control group (group C), OGD/R group, electrostimulation preconditioning group (group E) and miR-124-3p inhibitor group (group I). Group C was cultured under normal conditions, and group OGD/R was deprived of oxygen and glucose for 2 h followed by restoration of oxygen and glucose supply for 24 h to develop the OGD/R injury model. In group E, cells were stimulated with 100 mV/mm direct current for 4 h before oxygen-glucose deprivation, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group OGD/R. Group I was transfected with micrOFF? mmu-miR-124-3p inhibitor at 48 h before oxygen-glucose deprivation, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group E. The cell survival rate was determined by CCK-8 assay, the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and IL-10 in the cell supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of a surface marker of M1 microglia inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and a surface marker of M2 microglia arginase 1 (Arg-1) was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot, respectively. The expression of iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA and miR-124-3p was detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results:Compared with group C, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10 in the supernatant were increased, and the expression of iNOS and Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was up-regulated in the remaining three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell survival rate was significantly increased, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β in the supernatant were decreased, the IL-10 concentration was increased, the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was up-regulated in E and I groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group E, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β in the supernatant were increased, the IL-10 concentration was decreased, the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was down-regulated in group I ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which electrostimulation preconditioning reduces OGD/R injury in microglia is related to up-regulation of the expression of miR-124-3p, promotion of M2 microglia polarization, inhibition of M1 microglia polarization, and thus inhibiting the inflammatory responses.

Objective:To evaluate the role of glutathione S-transferase μ1 (GSTM1) expression in mild hypothermia-induced mitigation of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and the relationship with microglial polarization.Methods:Eighty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral I/R group (I/R group), mild hypothermia group (H group), and GSTM1 inhibitor + mild hypothermia group (IH group). The rat model of cerebral I/R injury was prepared using the filament occlusion method. The filament was removed to restore blood flow after the left middle cerebral artery was blocked for 2 h, and the rats′ brain and rectal temperature were maintained at 36-37 ℃ during the period. The vessels were only isolated and ligated without occlusion in S group. In H group, the entire body was wiped with 75% ethanol immediately after removing the filament, and the brain and rectal temperatures were maintained at 32-33 ℃ for 3 h, and the other procedures were the same as those previously described in I/R group. In IH group, GSTM1 inhibitor itaconic acid 8.6 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 24 and 1 h before developing the model, and the other procedures were the same as those previously described in H group. Neurological deficits were evaluated using a modified neurological severity score (mNSS) at 24 h of reperfusion, and then the animals were sacrificed and the brains were removed for observation of cerebral infarction (by TTC staining) and for determination of the expression of GSTM1, M1-type microglial marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and M2-type microglial marker arginase-1 (Arg-1) (by Western blot), expression of GSTM1, iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA (quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and contents of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:Compared with S group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly increased, and the expression of iNOS and Arg-1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated, the expression of GSTM1 and mRNA was down-regulated, and the contents of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-10 and TGF-β were increased in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group and IH group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly decreased, and the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated, the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and GSTM1 was up-regulated, the contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were decreased, and the contents of TGF-β and IL-10 were increased in H group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulated expression of GSTM1 is involved in mild hypothermia-induced mitigation of cerebral I/R injury, which is associated with inhibition of microglial polarization toward the M1 phenotype and promotion of polarization toward the M2 phenotype.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between M2-type microglia-derived exosomes (M2-exo) and neuronal oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury in mice.Methods:Mouse neuroblastoma cells (N2a cells) and BV2 microglia were cultured in vitro, and BV2 microglia were activated to M2 type using 20 ng/ml IL-4, and M0-type microglia-derived exosomes (M0-exo) and M2-exo were extracted.N2a cells were divided into 4 groups ( n=23 each) using the random number table method: control+ M0-exo group (C+ M0 group), control+ M2-exo group (C+ M2 group), OGD/R+ M0-exo group (O+ M0 group) and OGD/R+ M2-exo group (O+ M2 group).M0-exo and M2-exo (final concentration 100 μg/ml) were added in C+ M0 and C+ M2 groups, respectively, and the cells were incubated for 24 h. M0-exo and M2-exo (final concentration 100 μg/ml) were added at 3 h after oxygen and glucose deprivation, and then the cells were incubated for 24 h in O+ M0 and O+ M2 groups, respectively.N2a cell viability was measured by the CCK-8 method, and the severity of cell damage was assessed using the lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release rate.The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 protein and mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Results:Compared with C+ M0 group, no significant changes were found in N2a cell viability, LDH release rate, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and Bax mRNA/Bcl-2 mRNA ratio in C+ M2 group ( P>0.05), and N2a cell viability was significantly decreased, and the LDH release rate, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and Bax mRNA/Bcl-2 mRNA ratio were increased in O+ M0 group ( P<0.05).Compared with C+ M2 group, the N2a cell viability was significantly decreased, and the LDH release rate, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and Bax mRNA/Bcl-2 mRNA ratio were increased in O+ M2 group ( P<0.05).Compared with O+ M0 group, N2a cell viability was significantly increased, and LDH release rate, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and Bax mRNA/Bcl-2 mRNA ratio were decreased in O+ M2 group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:M2-exo exerts an endogenous protective effect during OGD/R in mouse neurons, which may be related to the inhibition of cell apoptosis.

Objective:To elucidate the changes of cytokine expression profiles in hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) patients infected with non-EV-A71 enteroviruses in Jinan city, and explore the characteristics of cytokines expression.Methods:The serum samples of acute and convalescent phases were collected from non-EV-A71 enterovirus-infected HFMD patients in Jinan from 2014 to 2017. The serum samples of healthy subjects were collected as control group. The Bio-plex liquid chip platform was used for high-throughput detection of 27 cytokines. GraphPad Prism and SPSS 22.0 were used for description and statistical analysis.Results:Twenty-two serum cytokines significantly changed in non-EV-A71 infected patients, including 11 kinds of interleukin (IL), 5 kinds of chemokines, 2 kinds of growth factors, granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). There were 21 kinds (mean ranks 17.06-19.00 pg/ml vs 5.50-8.80 pg/ml, P < 0.05) and 20 kinds (mean ranks 16.41-19.00 pg/ml vs 5.50-9.90 pg/ml, P < 0.05) of cytokines expression in acute stage and convalescent stage respectively were higher than those in healthy control group for coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) infected patients, and GM-CSF expression (mean ranks 9.65 pg/ml vs 21.40 pg/ml, 9.59 pg/ml vs 21.50 pg/ml, P < 0.05) were both lower than those in healthy control group. For HFMD patients infected CV-A6, there were 19 kinds (mean ranks 11.92-13.50 pg/ml vs 5.50-6.45 pg/ml, P < 0.05) and 21 kinds (mean ranks 12.00-13.50 pg/ml vs 5.50-6.40pg/ml, P < 0.05) of cytokines expression with acute and convalescent stage respectively were higher than those in healthy control group. GM-CSF expression decreased only in acute phase (mean ranks 5.00 pg/ml vs 10.60 pg/ml, P < 0.05) compared with healthy control group. Double serum analysis showed that interleukin 6 (22.79pg/ml vs 35.88 pg/ml) and interferon-induced protein 10 (IFNγ -induced protein 10) (793.56 pg/ml vs 2 157.32 pg/ml) expression in patients with CV-A16 infection during convalescent stage were lower than that in acute stage; IL-7 (3.13 pg/ml vs 1.165 pg/ml), IL-15 (27.84 pg/ml vs 16.005 pg/ml) and regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) (22 605.96 pg/ml vs 7 040.90 pg/ml) expression in patients with CV-A6 infection during convalescent stage increased compared with the acute stage. Conclusions:There are extensive changes in cytokine expression profile in HFMD patients with non-EV-A71 enterovirus infection. Different pathogens infection and different clinical course of HFMD have different characteristics of cytokine expression. These findings could provide scientific data for finding indicators that are meaningful for disease progression, clinical diagnosis and immunotherapy.
