Objective To observe the effect of naloxone(Naloxone,NAL) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats,and to explore its mechanism.Methods 36 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group (Con group),ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group),ischemic preconditioning group (IPC group) and naloxone pretreatment group (Nal+I/R group).Changes of cardiac function,myocardial infarct size and occurrence of arrhythmias after ischemia-reperfusion in each roup were observed.Changes of myocardium under light microscope ultrastructural in each group were also observed.Apoptosis situation in each group was detected by TUNEL assay.Results Compared with th IR group,IPC group and Nal+I/R group showed significantly improvement in cardiac function after ischemia-reperfusion (P

Objective To investigate the relationship of the activation of nuclear factor kappa B(NF-kB) with myocardial neutrophil infiltration and injury in human open heart surgery,and to observe the inhibiting effect on the activation of NF-kB and protecting effect on myocardium of the coenzyme Q10,a scavenger of oxygen free radicals.Methods Forty-seven adult patients undergoing open heart surgery were randomly divided into two groups,the control and the treatment.CoenzymeQ10 tablets were given to the treatment group 5 days before operation.Biopsy of right atrium for myocardial pathology,activated NF-kB detection and ultrastructure observation were done prior to cardiopulmonary bypass,45 minutes of ischemia and 45 minutes of reperfusion.The dynamic indexes,vasomotor drug dosage,and outcomes were observed postoperatively.Results Upon 45 minutes of ischemia and 45 minutes of reperfusion,in control group there were neutrophil accumulation and adhesion of vascular endothelium,ultrastructural damages,and positive expression of NF-kB both in nuclei and cytoplasm,in myocardium.In treatment group,there were only mild neutrophil infiltration and ultrastructural damages,and weak positive expression of NF-kB both in nuclei and cytoplasm.However,the dynamic indexes,vasomotor drug dosage,and outcomes of two groups were not significantly different.Conclusion NF-kB plays an important role in pathophysiological process of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion in open heart surgery.CoenzymeQ10 has obvious inhibiting effect on activation of NF-kB and protecting effect on myocardium.

Objective To observe NLS-KALA-SA-PTX (NKSP) for lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 in vitro with paclitaxel monotherapy, and the mechanism thereof. Methods MTT assay was used to detect A549 cell proliferation influ-enced by different concentrations of NKSP (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) and paclitaxel monotherapy (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h.. Subsequent experiments were divided into four groups, namely, group A (without any drug treatment), group B (added polypeptide 80μg/L of self-assembled nanoparticles, NKS), group C (80μg/L paclitaxel monotherapy) and group D (80μg/L NKSP). Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell apoptotic rates after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Western blot assay was used to analyse the protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Results Both paclitaxel monotherapy and NKSP can inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells. The inhibitory rates of paclitaxel monotherapy group at 48 h and 72 h and NKSP group at 72 h showed an increasing trend in a dose-depen-dent manner (P<0.05). After treatment for 48 hours, the apoptotic rate was significantly higher in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). But the apoptotic rate at 72 h was lower in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). The protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 at 48 h were significantl lower in D group than those of C group, which were higher at 72 h in D group than those of C group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared to paclitaxel monotherapy group, NKS promotes slow release of pa-clitaxol, which reduces the cytotoxicity and extends the antitumor effects.

Objective To clarify the role of pentraxin 3 (PTX3) in the development of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods One hundred and sixteen patients undergone MHD therapy in our center for more than 3 months were enrolled in the study. Clinical data were collected for analysis. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) was used to estimate the presence of PAD. Patients were divided into PAD group (ABI<0.9) and nonestimate the association of PAD with PTX3 as well as other potential risk factors. Results The incidence of PAD was 18.1% (21/116). Plasma level of PTX3 was significantly higher in PAD patients than that in non-PAD patients [(5.55 ±2.63) μg/L vs (2.32 ±1.29)μg/L, P<0.01].Univariate analysis showed ABI values were negatively correlated with plasma PTX3 levels (r =-0.548, P<0.01), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), age, blood glucose and triglyceride. ROC curve of PAD revealed that area under curve (AUC) of PTX3 was 0.901 (P<0.01). With the cut-off value of PTX3 as 4.06 μg/L, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity in PAD were 81.0% and 91.5%. ROC curve of PAD showed that AUC of hsCRP was 0.640 (P<0.05). With the cut-off value of hsCRP as 3.33 mg/L, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity in PAD were 57.1% and 56.8%. Using Logistic regression, plasma PTX3 was found to be associated with PAD (0R=9.755, 95%CI:2.359-19.354, P=0.001). Conclusions The PAD incidence of MHD patients in our center is 18.1%. Plasma PTX3 level is significantly correlated with the presence of PAD in MHD patients. The sensitivity and specificity of PTX3 are higher than those of hsCRP for PAD diagnosis.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a metabolic disorder posing significant risks to maternal and infant health, with a lack of effective early screening markers. Therefore, identifying early screening biomarkers for GDM with higher sensitivity and specificity is urgently needed. Methods: High-throughput sequencing was employed to screen for key circular RNAs (circRNAs), which were then evaluated using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between clinical characteristics, circRNA expression, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. The diagnostic accuracy of circRNAs for early and mid-pregnancy GDM was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Pearson correlation analysis was utilized to explore the relationship between circRNA levels and oral glucose tolerance test results. A predictive model for early GDM was established using logistic regression. Results: Significant alterations in circRNA expression profiles were detected in GDM patients, with hsa_circ_0031560 and hsa_ circ_0000793 notably upregulated during the first and second trimesters. These circRNAs were associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and effectively differentiated GDM patients, with second trimester cohorts achieving an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.836. In first trimester cohorts, these circRNAs identified potential GDM patients with AUCs of 0.832 and 0.765, respectively. The early GDM prediction model achieved an AUC of 0.904, validated in two independent cohorts. Conclusion Hsa_circ_0031560, hsa_circ_0000793, and the developed model serve as biomarkers for early prediction or midterm diagnosis of GDM, offering clinical tools for early GDM screening.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the proficiency and consistency of domestic and foreign testing institutions in the field of veterinary drug residue detection in food， and to promote international cooperation and mutual recognition of testing results among these institutions. MethodsA robust statistical analysis was conducted on the testing results of 20 laboratories in eight countries and regions across North America， Europe， and Asia. The laboratories’ testing capabilities were evaluated using Z-score comparison. ResultsAmong the 20 participating laboratories， 18 achieved satisfactory results， resulting in a satisfaction rate of 90%， while 2 laboratories （10%） failed to meet the requirements. The satisfaction rate of domestic laboratories （100%） was higher than that of foreign laboratories （81.8%）. ConclusionDomestic laboratories perform better than overseas laboratories in determining veterinary drug residues in food. To enhance testing capabilities， these overseas laboratories with unsatisfactory evaluation results should strengthen their daily quality control and ensure traceability of original records.
