Objective To investigate the effects of vagus nerve electrostimulation (VNS) on the brain damage of rat middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion model and its mechanism. Methods Twenty four adult male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups (12 each): MCAO/reperfusion group (MCAO group) and MCAO/reperfusion+VNS group (MCAO+VNS group). Subsequently, the neurological function deficit was determined by neurological scoring according to Zea Long scoring method 24h after MCAO/reperfusion. The cerebral infarction volume was determined by TTC assay. The cell apoptosis in brain damage zone was determined by TUNEL assay. Then, the effect of VNS on cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and p-CREB protein expression was determined by Western blotting. The effect of VNS on Bcl-2 and Bax expression was determined by immunohistochemistry assay. Results Compared with MCAO group, VNS significantly inhibited MCAO-induced neurological deficit (P<0.01), decreased brain infarct volume (P<0.01) and cell apoptosis (P<0.01), increased the expression of p-CREB protein (P<0.01) and the number of Bcl-2-position cells (P<0.01) together with decreasing the number of Bax-position cells (P<0.01). However, VNS did not affect the expression of CREB protein (P>0.05). Conclusion VNS may ameliorate MCAO-induced neurological deficit and decrease brain infarct volume, which may be related to the promotion of p-CREB protein expression level.

Objective:To study the effect of programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) regulating dendritic cells (DC) on the immune status of sepsis, and analyze the effect of PD-1/PD-L1 on prognosis.Methods:Twenty-five patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from October 2018 to September 2019 were collected and followed up for 28 days. According to the 28-day survival of patients, patients were divided into survival group and death group. Among them, 10 cases were in the survival group and 15 cases were in the death group. Simultaneously, 20 healthy subjects in our hospital during the same period served as the healthy control group. Peripheral blood of patients with sepsis was taken within 24 hours after diagnosis, and the healthy control group was taken at the time of enrollment. Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD4 +T and CD8 +T cells, the ratio of T cell subsets (CD4/CD8), the expression of PD-1 on CD4 +T and CD8 +T cells, and the expression of PD-L1 and CD86 in DC. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in serum. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between CD11c +PD-L1 and CD4 +PD-1, CD8 +PD-1, TNF-α, DC, CD11c +CD86, T cell subpopulation ratio, CD4 +T cells, CD8 +T cells, and IL-10. Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the death of patients with sepsis, and receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of independent risk factors on the prognosis of patients. Results:The scores of acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ (APACHEⅡ) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) in the death group were higher than that in the survival group (APACHEⅡ score: 27.0±7.3 vs. 17.0±3.9, SOFA score: 15.1±4.1 vs. 10.7±2.7, both P < 0.05). The ratio of T cell subsets in the survival group and the death group was less than 1, the death group was lower than that in the survival group (CD4/CD8: 0.54±0.15 vs. 0.79±0.09, P < 0.05), and the ratio of T cell subsets in the healthy control group was greater than 1. Compared with healthy control group, the levels of CD4 +T cells, CD8 +T cells, CD11c +DC, CD11c +CD86, IL-10 and TNF-α in survival group and death group were significantly decreased, the level of CD4 +PD-1, CD8 +PD-1, CD11c +PD-L1 were significantly increased, and the changes in the above indicators in the death group were significant compared with the survival group [CD4 +T cells: 0.14±0.07 vs. 0.22±0.08, CD8 +T cells: 0.24±0.07 vs. 0.28±0.10, CD11c +DC: 0.84±0.14 vs. 0.93±0.03, CD11c +CD86: (58.83±20.77)% vs. (78.24±9.39)%, IL-10 (ng/L): 34.22±13.98 vs. 18.49±5.55, TNF-α(ng/L): 95.30±29.33 vs. 67.00±20.16, CD4 +PD-1: (39.58±10.08)% vs. (27.03±6.35)%, CD8 +PD-1: (38.77±11.91)% vs. (29.15±8.37)%, CD11c +PD-L1: (21.13±11.54)% vs. (12.11± 8.34)%, all P < 0.05]. Spearman correlation analysis showed that CD11c +PD-L1 was positively correlated with CD4 +PD-1, CD8 +PD-1, and IL-10 ( r values were 0.748, 0.713, 0.898, all P < 0.05), while was negatively correlated with DC, CD11c +CD86, T cell subpopulation ratio, CD4 +T cells, CD8 +T cells, and TNF-α( r values were -0.587, -0.906, -0.840, -0.706, -0.513, -0.820, all P < 0.05). Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that CD4 +T PD-1 was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of sepsis patients [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.463, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 1.032-2.074, P = 0.033]. ROC curve analysis showed that CD4 +TPD-1 had certain predictive value for the prognosis of patients with sepsis [area under ROC curve (AUC) = 0.857, 95% CI was 0.709-1.000, P < 0.01). When the best predictive value was 34.48%, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 66.7%, 90.0%, and 85.7% respectively. Conclusions:Up-regulation of PD-1/PD-L1 in peripheral blood could inhibit the activation and proliferation of DC, affect the activation of T cells, and induce immunosuppressive state. PD-1/PD-L1 can reflect the immune status of patients with sepsis. The expression of PD-1 on CD4 +T cells may have important significance for the evaluation of prognosis.

Objective To study clinical characteristics of type 2 diabetic(T2D)patients with metabolic syndrome(MS)and its components in Beijing urban communities.Methods Totally,3295 T2D patients involved in a combined prospective diabetic management study from 15 urban communities in Beijing were classified as four groups, according to 2004 Chinese Diabetes Society's definition of MS, i. e, isolated T2D, T2D with one component of MS, T2D with two components of MS and T2D with three components of MS. Their clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results ( 1 ) Among 3295 T2D patients, 155 (4. 7% )were isolated T2D, 107 (32.6%) T2D with one component of MS, 1386 (42.1%) T2D with two components of MS and 679 (20.6%) T2D with three components of MS, with an overall 62.7% (2065/3295) of T2D patients complicated with MS. (2) In these T2D patients, the more components of MS they had, the higher body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist to hip circumference ratio (WHR),systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting serum levels of insulin and triglyceride (TG) and the lower level of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL) were presented (P <0. 01 ). (3) Percentage of isolated T2D in women increased from 49. 0% (76/155) to 61.9% (420/679)of those with three components of MS ( P < 0 01 ), with increasing of components of MS. (4) Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, history of hypertension, decreased HDL, increased TG,increased blood pressure, all were risk factors for T2D patients complicated with MS. Conclusions Among T2D patients in urban communities of Beijing, 95.3% (3140/3295) of them complicated with one or more components of MS, and 61.9% (420/679) of them complicated with MS. So, community diabetic management must be implemented in an all-round way, including control of blood pressure, blood lipids,body weight and so on, in addition to control of blood sugar.
