BACKGROUND:Numerous diseases like cardiac hypertrophy and intervertebral disc degeneration are known to be implicated in the changes of mechanical stress acting on surrounding tissues or cells, and autophagy contributes to the pathogenesis of these diseases. OBJECTIVE:To review the effects of mechanical factors on autophagy in different tissues and the underlying molecular mechanisms, thereby providing references for the research of autophagy and the prevention and treatment of related diseases. METHODS:A search of Web of Science and PubMed databases was performed for the literatures addressing the effects of mechanical factors on autophagy using the English keywords ofautophagy, mechanicaland the articles were summarized systematically. Finally, 52 literatures were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mechanical factors make great effects on autophagy of various cells, such as myocardial cells, endothelial cells, chondrocytes and skeletal muscle cells. Autophagy is a self-protective reaction, and the mechanical stress of physiological conditions induces autophagy to maintain cellhomeostasis, normal function and survival. The mechanism of autophagy induced by mechanical stress may involve PI3K-AKT-mTOR, oxygen free radical, AKT-FoxO and other pathways, and the definite mechanism needs to be further studied.

Objective To investigate the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in the osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). Methods After 14 days of the calcium hydroxide training, the cytoskeletal changes of hDPSCs, the expression of β-catenin, i.e. the key promoter of in the Wnt signaling pathway, and the cell localization were detected by laser scanning confocal technique. The Wnt signaling pathways were up-regulated and inhibited, and the osteogenic differentiation and mineralization of hDPSCs were detected by Western Blot and alizarin red staining after 14 days of the training. Results The cytoskeleton of hDPSCs was rearranged by the effect of calcium hydroxide, and theβ-catenin migration from nucleus to cytoplasm were observed. The number of calcium nodules in hDPSCs was decreased after blocking Wnt signaling pathway by Dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK-1). The calcium hydroxide treatment can promoted dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) expression in hDPSCs. Conclusions Calcium hydroxide can down-regulate the expression of canonical Wnt signaling pathway and promote osteogenic differentiation and mineralization and odontogenetic differentiation of hDPSCs.

Objective:To document any correlation between eye-tracking test results and cognitive impairment after a stroke.Methods:Forty stroke survivors made up the stroke group, while 20 healthy subjects without a history of stroke formed the normal group. Everyone was given an eye-tracking test, the mini-mental state examination (MMSE), and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The eye-tracking test results were then tested for any correlation with age, level of education, and the MMSE and MoCA scores.Results:In the static image test and the prosaccade test, the total number of fixations was significantly higher in the stroke group than in the normal group. In the dynamic path test, the ocular motor test and the anti-saccade test, significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of the duration of total fixation, the fixation duration ratio, and the total number of fixations. In the static image test, the total number of fixations was weakly negatively correlated with the MMSE scores. Total fixation duration and fixation duration ratio were weakly positively correlated with the MoCA scores, while total number of fixations, total saccade distance and average saccade velocity were weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores. In the dynamic path test, total fixation duration was weakly positively correlated with the MMSE and MoCA scores. Fixation duration ratio was weakly positively correlated with the MMSE scores and weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores. First fixation duration was weakly positively correlated with the MoCA scores. The total number of fixations was weakly positively correlated with age and weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores. Total saccade distance was weakly negatively correlated with age and the MoCA scores, and average saccade velocity was weakly negatively correlated with the MMSE and MoCA scores. In the ocular motor test, total fixation duration and fixation duration ratio were weakly positively correlated with the MoCA scores. Total number of fixations, total saccade distance, and average saccade velocity were weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores. In the prosaccade test, total fixation duration and fixation duration ratio were weakly positively correlated with the MoCA scores. Total number of fixations was weakly positively correlated with age and weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores. Total saccade distance and average saccade velocity were weakly negatively correlated with both the MMSE and MoCA scores. In the anti-saccade test, total fixation duration was weakly and positively correlated with age and the MoCA scores. Fixation duration ratio was weakly and positively correlated with age and the MoCA scores. The total number of fixations was weakly positively correlated with age and weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores, and total saccade distance and average saccade velocity were weakly negatively correlated with the MoCA scores.Conclusions:Eye-tracking test results are significantly correlated with post-stroke cognitive impairment, suggesting that such tests can be used in the assessment of post-stroke cognitive dysfunction.

Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles,which not only provide energy and material basis for cells,but also regulate cell proliferation,migration,differentiation,and apoptosis.Cell fate is regulated by mechanical cues from the microenvironment.Recent studies have shown that energy metabolism is regulated by mechanical cues.Mitochondria can act as mechanical sensors and hubs that connect the mechanics and metabolism to regulate cell fate.A deep understanding of the relationship between the mechanical microenvironment and mitochondrial metabolism provides sufficient guidance for promoting tissue regeneration and treating diseases.In this review,the progression in mitochondrial mechanobiology is mainly introduced and its potential applications in tissue regeneration and disease treatment are explored.
