Objective:To establish neurodevelopmental mice model of schizophrenia(SZ) with prepulse inhibition(PPI) deficits and investigate the effectiveness of olanzapine on PPI disruption.Methods:On the 9th day of pregnancy of SPF grade C57BL/6 mice, female mice were injected with polyinosinic acid poly (I∶C) (6 mg/kg) through tail vein for immune stimulation. The stress model was constructed by chronic unpredictable mild stress 30-40 d after birth (PND30-40). The offspring mice were divided into pregnancy immune stimulation + adolescent stress group (P + S + group), pregnancy immune stimulation group (P + S- group), adolescent stress group (P-S+ group) and non stimulation group (P-S-group), with 18 mice in each group. The mice in P+ S+ group were divided into OLZ intervention group (OLZ group) and non-OLZ intervention group (non-OLZ group), with 9 mice in each group. The PPI function of mice was detected by acoustic startle reflex test after modeling and OLZ intervention. Adopt StatView Version 5.0 software for data analysis, and multi factors analysis of variance was used to test the main effect, interactive effect and simple effect of each factor.Results:The main effects of maternal Poly(I: C) immune activation and pubertal chronic unpredictable stress were significant( F(1, 330)=47.72, P<0.01), and there was a significant interaction between the two factors( F(1, 330)=14.80, P<0.01), simple effect analysis showed that average percent prepulse inhibition (PPI%) in P+ S+ group((15.42±6.13)%) was significantly decreased compared with groups of P+ S-((27.33±4.58)%), P-S+ ((31.17±3.97)%) and P-S-((47.14±12.28)%)(all P<0.01). There was significant gender difference in Prepulse inhibition(PPI)score( F(1, 396)=61.94, P<0.01), in male and female mice, average startle reactivity of Pulse under Prepulse+ Pulse influence of distinct intensities was significantly different( F(1, 198)=18.68, 18.44, P<0.01), and the maternal Poly(I∶C) immune activation had a significant main effect( F(1, 198)=32.18, 12.58, P<0.01) and interaction with pubertal chronic unpredictable stress( F(1, 198)=34.54, 11.39, P<0.01), simple effect analysis suggested that the average startle reactivity of Prepulse+ Pulse in P+ S+ group(0.47±0.12) was significantly higher than other three groups(P+ S-: 0.36±0.11, P-S+ : (0.25±0.22), P-S-: (0.31±0.19)) in male mice( P<0.01) and in P-S+ group was significantly higher than the other three groups in female mice ( P<0.01). OLZ treatment could efficiently reverse the deficits on PPI by increasing PPI%( F(1, 165)=18.24, P<0.01), OLZ could reduce PPI score in male "dual-hit" model mice( F(1, 102)=21.81, P<0.01)and raise it in female( F(1, 102)=4.88, P<0.05). Conclusion:OLZ can reverse PPI deficits in schizophrenic neurodevelopmental model mice, and in the evaluation of PPI function in the model mice through PPI of acoustic startle reflex, PPI% has better stability and reactivity to OLZ intervention.

Objective To externally validate a prediction model based on clinical and CT imaging features for the preoperative identification of high-grade patterns (HGP), such as micropapillary and solid subtypes, in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, in order to guide clinical treatment decisions. Methods This study conducted an external validation of a previously developed prediction model using a cohort of patients with clinical stage ⅠA lung adenocarcinoma from the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University. The model, which incorporated factors including tumor size, density, and lobulation, was assessed for its discrimination, calibration performance, and clinical impact. Results A total of 650 patients (293 males, 357 females; age range: 30-82 years) were included. The validation showed that the model demonstrated good performance in discriminating HGP (area under the curve>0.7). After recalibration, the model's calibration performance was improved. Decision curve analysis (DCA) indicated that at a threshold probability>0.6, the number of HGP patients predicted by the model closely approximated the actual number of cases. Conclusion This study confirms the effectiveness of a clinical and imaging feature-based prediction model for identifying HGP in stage ⅠA lung adenocarcinoma in a clinical setting. Successful application of this model may be significant for determining surgical strategies and improving patients' prognosis. Despite certain limitations, these findings provide new directions for future research.

SARS-CoV-2 infection causes complicated clinical manifestations with variable multi-organ injuries, however, the underlying mechanism, in particular immune responses in different organs, remains elusive. In this study, comprehensive transcriptomic alterations of 14 tissues from rhesus macaque infected with SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed. Compared to normal controls, SARS-CoV-2 infection resulted in dysregulation of genes involving diverse functions in various examined tissues/organs, with drastic transcriptomic changes in cerebral cortex and right ventricle. Intriguingly, cerebral cortex exhibited a hyperinflammatory state evidenced by significant upregulation of inflammation response-related genes. Meanwhile, expressions of coagulation, angiogenesis and fibrosis factors were also up-regulated in cerebral cortex. Based on our findings, neuropilin 1 (NRP1), a receptor of SARS-CoV-2, was significantly elevated in cerebral cortex post infection, accompanied by active immune response releasing inflammatory factors and signal transmission among tissues, which enhanced infection of the central nervous system (CNS) in a positive feedback way, leading to viral encephalitis. Overall, our study depicts a multi-tissue/organ transcriptomic landscapes of rhesus macaque with early infection of SARS-CoV-2, and provides important insights into the mechanistic basis for COVID-19-associated clinical complications.
