BACKGROUND: Fresh amniotic membrane has been extensively used in treating ocular surface disease, which can inhibit fibrous tissue proliferation, inhibit neovascularization, and relieve inflammation. However, its application in treating glaucoma is rarely reported.OBJECTIVE: To explore the antiproliferative effect of fresh amniotic membrane on postoperative scar and compared with preserved amniotic membrane.METHODS: A total of 36 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups. Fresh amniotic membrane and preserved amniotic membrane combined with trabeculectomy separately underwent fresh amniotic membrane and preserved amniotic membrane transplantation. The control group was subjected to trabeculectomy alone. After 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks, the morphology and function of filtering bleb were checked, and the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) of surrounding tissue was determined by immunohistochemical method.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Fresh amniotic membrane and preserved amniotic membrane groups displayed bulged filtering bleb with good filtering function. Pathological observation showed that fibroblasts of the filtration pathway had less, but more sparse scar tissues than control group, but inflammatory infiltration was observed in all groups. The cavity of different sizes and shapes were detected in filtration pathway of control group, which was replaced by fibrous tissue hyperplasia, with a large number of fibroblasts. Immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of PDGF was significantly less in fresh amniotic membrane and preserved amniotic membrane groups compared with the control group, and the PDGF expression was less in fresh amniotic membrane group than the preserved amniotic membrane group. Fresh and preserved amniotic membrane can improve the filtering bleb function, reduce scar formation, and maintain the patency of filtering pathway. Moreover, the effects of fresh amniotic membrane is better than preserved amniotic membrane.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the therapeutic mechanism of Liushen Wan (LSW) against colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) by network pharmacology.
METHODS:
TCMSP, BATMAN-TCM, CNKI, PubMed, Genecards, OMIM, and TTD databases were used to obtain the related targets of LSW and CAC. The common targets of LSW and CAC were obtained using Venny online website. The PPI network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.8.2 to screen the core targets of LSW in the treatment of CAC. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were conducted using DAVID database. The therapeutic effect of LSW on CAC was evaluated in a C57BL/6J mouse model of AOM/DSS-induced CAC by observing the changes in body weight, disease activity index, colon length, and size and number of the tumor. HE staining and RT-qPCR were used to analyze the effect of LSW on inflammatory mediators. Immunohistochemistry and TUNEL staining were used to evaluate the effect of LSW on the proliferation and apoptosis of AOM/DSS-treated colon tumor cells. Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were used to detect the effects of LSW on the expression of TLR4 proteins in CAC mice.
RESULTS:
Network pharmacology analysis identified 69 common targets of LSW and CAC, and 33 hub targets were screened in the PPI network. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that the effect of LSW on CAC was mediated by the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway. In the mouse model of AOM/DSS-induced CAC, LSW significantly inhibited colitis-associated tumorigenesis, reduced tumor number and tumor load (P < 0.05), obviously improved histopathological changes in the colon, downregulated the mRNA levels of proinflammatory cytokines, and inhibited the proliferation (P < 0.01) and promoted apoptosis of colon tumor cells (P < 0.001). LSW also significantly decreased TLR4 protein expression in the colon tissue (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
LSW can inhibit CAC in mice possibly by regulating the expression of TLR4 to reduce intestinal inflammation, inhibit colon tumor cell proliferation and promote their apoptosis.

Objective :
To investigate the effects of linoleic acid ( LA) on the diversity and structure of intestinal flora in mice.
Methods :
Twelve SPF grade male C57BL /6J mice at 7 weeks were randomly divided into control group ( CTRL group) and linoleic acid group (LA group) .One day before the linoleic acid diet was supplemented, the normal food was removed from the LA group and the mice in the LA group were fasted for one night,so that the LA diet was more acceptable to the mice in the LA group,and LA was given on the day of the experiment recording, and the feed was updated at any time to ensure that the mice could eat freely until the end of modeling.After 12 weeks of modeling,mouse feces were collected,and mixed samples were collected for every two mice feces,and then 16sRNA high-throughput sequencing was performed to analyze intestinal flora structure,Alpha and Beta diversity.
Results :
16sRNA high-throughput sequencing showed that LA intervention damaged the richness and diversity of intestinal flora.The results of principal component analysis showed that the composition of flora in CTRL group was different from that in LA group.At gate level,the relative abundance of Actinobacteria in LA group increased (P < 0. 01) .At the genus level,the relative abundance of L.Duchennei in the LA group decreased (P<0. 05) ,but the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium,Faecalibaculum and Erysipelotrichaceae in the LA group increased ( all P < 0. 01) .
Conclusion
LA intervention could reduce the richness and diversity of intestinal flora in mice,and adjust the structure of intestinal flora.There were significant differences between beneficial bacteria and pathogenic bacte- ria in intestinal flora after LA intervention,which provided certain basis for the treatment of bioactive compounds of linoleic acid and the therapeutic adjustment of intestinal microorganisms as targets.
