Objective To observe the effect of fasudil on cytoskeleton reconstruction in mouse podocytes induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ),as well as to study the protective mechanism of fasudil in the pathological changes of podocytes.Methods Conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes were treated with Ang Ⅱ (10-7 mol/L).The podocytes were pre-incubated for 30 min or 60 min with various concentrations of fasudil (10-8,10-7,10-5 mol/L),then Ang Ⅱ (10-7 mol/L) were added and furtherincubated for 24 hours.The cytoskeleton distribution of podocyte as indicated by F-actin and synaptopodin was observed by fluorescence microscopy and Western blotting.At the same time,the activity of Rho signal pathway that mediates actin filament polymerization was analyzed by measuring the extent of Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK-1) and myosin phosphatase-1 (MYPT1).Results Compared to the control group,AngⅡ disrupted the podocyte actin cytoskeleton and significantly decreased the expression of synaptopodin (P ＜ 0.05),while fasudil stabilized the actin filaments,and improved the synaptopodin expression (P ＜ 0.05).The expression enhancement of ROCK-1 and MYPT1 by Ang Ⅱ were reduced significantly by fasudil (P＜0.05).Conclusion The cytoskeleton reconstruction of podocytes can be induced by Ang Ⅱ and inhibited by fasudil,which suggests that the protective effect of fasudil may be partially contributed to the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway.

MTH1 (MutT Homolog1 )as MutT homologous en-zyme,is a nucleotide pyrophosphatase,mainly involved in DNA damage repair process,especially plays an important role in the process of DNA replication in tumor cells.Recent studies have found that MTH1’s function is responsible for the development of a variety of tumors.Studies have shown that,MTH1 can remove tumor cells’oxidative DNA elements detrimental to the function-al structure,protecting tumor cell division and proliferation, maintaining tumor cell survival,however,normal cells do not need MTH1.Therefore,MTH1 may be only closely associated with abnormal cell growth.This makes MTH1 as therapeutic tar-gets that have been paid much attention.This article reviewed the relationship of MTH1 and tumor,discussed the mechanisms of MTH1 in tumor growth MTH1 and tumor treatment,so as to provide reference for clinical research and treatment of tumor.

Objective:To analyze the associations between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and serum vitamin B levels in children.Methods:A total of 103 ADHD children who were diagnosed in the Department of Child and Adolescent Healthcare of Children′s Hospital of Soochow University from September 2018 to April 2019 were selected as the ADHD group, and 89 children of the same age who underwent routine physical examinations served as the healthy control group.The serum levels of vitamin B, including vitamin B 1, vitamin B 2, vitamin B 6, vitamin B 9, and vitamin B 12, were measured by the methods of electrochemistry.Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale-Parent Report (WFIRS-P) was applied to analyze the correlation between social function scores and vitamin B levels in ADHD children. Results:The levels of vitamin B 9[(12.55±2.22) nmol/L vs.(13.26±2.54) nmol/L] and vitamin B 12 [(278.54±32.00) ng/L vs.(288.90±31.32) ng/L] in ADHD children were significantly lower than those in healthy children( t=-2.064, -2.261, all P<0.05). No significant difference was observed in serum levels of vitamin B 1, vitamin B 2 and vitamin B 6 between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). Correlation analysis displayed that only vitamin B 12 level was significantly and negatively correlated with social function in the learning/school dimension ( r=-0.208, P=0.035), and no significant correlation was found between other vitamin B levels and social function (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The serum levels of vitamin B 9 and B 12 in ADHD children were obviously lower than those in healthy children of the same age.Serum vitamin B 12 deficiency had an influence on the social function of the learning/school in ADHD children.Attention to the monitoring and timely supplementation of vitamin B in childhood, especially vitamin B 9 and B 12, may be of positive significance in the prevention of the occurrence and development of ADHD to some extent.

Objective:To analyze the effects of microvascular invasion (MVI) and anatomical hepatectomy on early recurrence and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The data of 246 patients with HCC admitted to 215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry, Chinese PLA General Hospital and Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital from July 2008 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 208 males and 38 females, aged (53.8±9.6) years. According to the occurrence of MVI, 246 patients were divided into the MVI group ( n=83) and control group ( n=163, without MVI). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), maximum tumor diameter, intraoperative blood loss were compared between the two groups. The recurrence-free survival and cumulative survival were compared between the two groups before and after the inverse probability weighted correction for propensity score. Results:The propensity score was calculated by logistic regression model. After inverse probability weighted correction, the virtual sample size was 247 cases (82 cases in MVI group and 165 cases in control group). The proportion of HBV infection, with a serum level of AFP > 200 μg/L, the maximum diameter of tumor and the intraoperative blood loss were higher in MVI group (all P<0.05). The risk of early recurrence in patients undergoing anatomical hepatectomy ( n=107) was lower than that in patients undergoing non-anatomical hepatectomy ( n=139) (univariate Cox regression analysis of HR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.06 to 2.42, P=0.020), but the overall survival was comparable (univariate Cox regression analysis of HR=1.66, 95% CI: 0.80 to 3.42, P=0.200). The recurrence-free survival (RFS) of MVI group was lower than that of the control group, and the postoperative cumulative survival rate was also lower before the inverse probability weighted correction of the tendency score. The RFS in MVI group was lower than that in control group after the tendency score was adjusted by inverse probability weighting ( HR=2.62, 95% CI: 1.61 to 4.27, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival between the MVI and control group ( HR=2.09, 95% CI: 0.89 to 4.93, P=0.050). Conclusion:MVI is associated with early postoperative recurrence in patients with HCC, and the early recurrence rate after anatomical hepatectomy is lower than that after non-anatomical hepatectomy.
