Objective:To investigate the expression of solute carrier family 35 member E1 (SLC35E1) and SLC35E2B in skin lesions of patients with Mycobacterium infections. Methods:Paraffin-embedded skin tissues of 31 patients confirmedly diagnosed with Mycobacterium infections were collected from Dermatology Hospital of Southern Medical University from 2014 to 2018, including 10 cases of multibacillary leprosy, 9 of nontuberculous mycobacterial infection, 7 of cutaneous tuberculosis, and 5 of erythema induratum. Meanwhile, paraffin-embedded skin tissues of 10 healthy individuals were collected, and served as normal control group. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to determine the expression of SLC35E1 and SLC35E2B in the lesional and normal control skin specimens, and immunofluorescence staining to observe the co-expression of CD68 and S100 with SLC35E1 and SLC35E2B in the skin lesions. Results:Neither SLC35E1 nor SLC35E2B was expressed in the normal control group, but high expression of SLC35E1 and SLC35E2B was observed in the dermis of skin lesions from the patients with leprosy, nontuberculous mycobacterial infection, cutaneous tuberculosis or erythema induratum. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of SLC35E1 and SLC35E2B (expressed as average optical density) was significantly higher in the multibacillary leprosy group (0.143 ± 0.010, 0.169 ± 0.004, respectively) , nontuberculous mycobacterial infection group (0.278 ± 0.015, 0.229 ± 0.088, respectively) , cutaneous tuberculosis group (0.171 ± 0.010, 0.103 ± 0.016, respectively) and erythema induratum group (0.200 ± 0.015, 0.118 ± 0.021, respectively) than in the normal control group (both 0, all P < 0.05) . Immunofluorescence staining showed co-expression of SLC35E1 and SLC35E2B with CD68 in skin lesions of the patients with leprosy, nontuberculous mycobacterial infection, cutaneous tuberculosis. Conclusion:Both SLC35E1 and SLCE2B were markedly highly expressed in skin lesions of patients with Mycobacterium infections.

Abstract Allostatic load (AL) is related to stress. Adverse childhood experiences(ACEs), as a common stress in childhood, can make a serious and lasting impact on it. Allostatic load can reflect the wear and tear of an individual s physiological system. This article mainly reviews the functional changes of several systems of AL who have experienced ACEs, including neuroendocrine, metabolism, immune, and cardiovascular systems, as well as the different effects of the occurrence time and subtypes of ACES on AL, providing some theoretical basis for the development of early intervention plans in the future and reducing the occurrence and development of deleterious outcomes.

Objective To explore the clinical value of virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ) technique in the diagnosis of acute rejection of transplant kidney at different stages. Methods Clinical data of 170 renal transplant recipients were retrospectively analyzed. According to the time of VTQ examination and the occurrence of acute rejection after renal transplantation, the recipients within 4 weeks and after 4 weeks post-renal transplantation were assigned into the normal renal function group (n=41, 51) and acute rejection group (n=22, 56). Clinical ultrasound parameters at different stages after renal transplantation were compared between two groups. The diagnostic value of ultrasound parameters in acute rejection at different stages after renal transplantation was evaluated. Results Within 4 weeks post-renal transplantation, the resistance index (RI) and shear wave velocity (SWV) in the acute rejection group were significantly higher than those in the normal renal function group (both P < 0.001). After 4 weeks post-renal transplantation, the SWV in the acute rejection group was significantly higher than that in the normal renal function group (P < 0.001). The area under curve (AUC) of RI and SWV in the diagnosis of acute rejection were 0.729 and 0.803 respectively within 4 weeks post-renal transplantation, which were 0.478 and 0.794 respectively after 4 weeks post-renal transplantation. The diagnostic value of SWV was higher than RI (P < 0.05). The cutoff value of SWV in the diagnosis of acute rejection within 4 weeks post-renal transplantation was considerably higher than that after 4 weeks post-renal transplantation. Conclusions VTQ technique can effectively assist in diagnosing acute rejection of transplant kidney at different stages.

Objective: To investigate loneliness and associated factors among adolescents with mixed anxiety and depressive disorder(MADD), and to provide reference for drawing up effective and targeted interventions. Methods: Using convenience sampling method, 265 adolescents with MADD in Daqing Third Hospital were selected from September 2020 to June 2021. General information questionnaire, Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI), Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents(RSCA), Child and Adolescent Peer Relationship Scale and UCLA Loneliness Scale were used to investigate the status and influencing factors of loneliness among adolescents with MADD. Results: The average score of UCLA among 265 adolescents with MADD was (56.49±10.83). The results of univariate analysis showed that age, gender, burden of medical expenses, drinking behavior and parents migrant work had statistically significant differences in the UCLA scores. The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that loneliness in MADD adolescents was negatively correlated with psychological resilience( F/t=57.65, -60.62, 21.92, 8.52, 16.22, P <0.01), and positively correlated with sleep quality and interpersonal distress( F/t=-0.69, 0.76, 0.50, P <0.01). The results of multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that phase of study, sex, burden of medical expenses, interpersonal distress, sleep quality and resilience were the influencing factors of loneliness among adolescents with MADD( B=0.11, 0.13, 0.09, 0.46, 0.10,-0.24, P <0.01). Conclusion Adolescents with MADD have moderate loneliness, which needs to be improved. Nursing staff should pay attention to the negative emotional experience such as loneliness among adolescents with MADD, and reduce their loneliness by improving sleep quality and resilience, reducing interpersonal distress.

Objective:To investigate the influence of abnormal blood pressure circadian rhythms and the morning surge on aortic stiffness in elderly patients with isolated systolic hypertension(ISH).Methods:A total of 300 untreated elderly(≥60 years)patients with ISH were enrolled.24-hour ambulatory blood pressure was measured by using a non-invasive portable ambulatory sphygmomanometer with an inflatable cuff.Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV)and the ankle-brachial pressure index(ABI)were measured by using an automated device.Patients were divided into the dipper(n=95), no-dipper(n=177)and extreme dipper(n=28)groups according to the rate of nocturnal blood pressure reduction.They were also divided into the morning surge(n=88)and no morning surge(n=212)groups according to the morning blood pressure surge(MBPS). Differences between the groups were compared.Correlations between the parameters were calculated by partial correlation analyses.The effects on baPWV and ABI were calculated by multiple linear regression analyses.Results:baPWV was higher in the extreme dipper group than in the dipper and no dipper groups[(1 402±234)cm/s vs.(1 467±114)cm/s vs.(1 538±140)cm/s, P<0.01], while ABI values were lower in the extreme dipper group than in the dipper group(0.98±0.10 vs.1.05±0.12, P<0.01)and the no dipper group(0.98±0.10 vs.1.03±0.12, P<0.05). Moreover, baPWV[(1 508±170)cm/s vs.(1 430±163)cm/s, P<0.01]was higher while ABI values(0.98±0.13 vs.1.06±0.11, P<0.01)were lower in the morning surge group than in the no morning surge group.baPWV was positively correlated with daytime Systolic blood pressure(dSBP)( r=0.169, P<0.01), 24 hSBPCV( r=0.143, P<0.05), and MBPS( r=0.157, P<0.01), while ABI was negatively correlated with dSBP( r=-0.146, P=0.011)and MBPS( r=-0.321, P<0.01). Age( P<0.01), dSBP( P<0.05)and 24 h systolic blood pressure variation coefficient( P<0.05)were independent factors for baPWV, while dSBP and MBPS were independent factors for ABI(all P<0.01). Conclusions:Abnormal blood pressure circadian rhythms and the morning surge are associated with increased aortic stiffness in elderly patients with ISH.

ObjectiveTo assess the anxiety and depression symptoms and sleep quality in patients with menstrual migraine， so as to provide references for the prevention and treatment of menstrual migraine and its comorbidity. MethodsAccording to the diagnostic criteria of the International Classification of Headache Disorder， third edition （ICHD-3）， 501 female migraine patients， including 112 patients with menstrual migraine and 389 patients with non-menstrual migraine， who attended the outpatient clinic of the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from February 2019 to February 2020， were selected for the study. The general and clinical data of the patients were collected， meantime， patients were assessed using Hamilton Anxiety Scale （HAMA）， Hamilton Depression Scale-24 item （HAMD-24）， 6-item Headache Impact Test （HIT-6） and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. ResultsThe detection rates of pure anxiety， pure depression， comorbid anxiety-depression and sleep disorders in patients with menstrual migraine were higher than those in patients with non-menstrual migraine （χ²=4.198， 4.355， 5.236， 8.624， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Patients with menstrual migraine had higher scores of HAMA、HAMD-17、PSQI and HIT-6 than those of non-menstrual migraine patients （Z=-3.550、-2.723、-2.482、-4.717，P<0.05 or 0.01）. Correlation analysis showed that PSQI score of menstrual migraine patients was positively correlated with HAMA score （r=0.338， P<0.01）， HAMD-24 score （r=0.372， P<0.01） and HIT-6 score （r=0.192， P<0.05）. ConclusionCompared with non-menstrual migraine patients， patients with menstrual migraine experience more severe anxiety and depression symptoms and sleep problems and suffer greater negative life impacts. In addition， the influence of anxiety and depression symptoms and headache on daily life is associated with sleep quality.

Objective : To explore the effect of hydroxy⁃carboxylic acid receptor 2 (HCAR2) on erythroid differen⁃ tiation of human chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells under hypoxia . Methods : The cells were cultured in medium containing hemin to compare the ability of K562 cells to differentiate into erythroid cells under normoxia/hypoxia conditions .

Benzidine staining , RT⁃qPCR , Western blot and flow cytometry were used to detect the role of HCAR2 in the erythroid differentiation of K562 promoted by hypoxia . Results : On day 1 , 2 , 3 after differentiation , the expression level of HCAR2 and the erythroid differentiation， the expression level of HCAR2 and the erythroid differentiation ability of K562 cells increased gradually with time , and hypoxia enhanced the above phenotypes compared with normoxia . In HCAR2⁃silenced K562 cells , erythroid cells was reduced and the expression of erythroid differentiation markers CD235a and γ⁃globin decreased . Simultaneously , the proportion of double⁃positive cells expressing erythroid cell surface molecules CD71 and CD235a was lower than that of the control group . On the contrary , the overexpression of HCAR2 in K562 cells increased erythroid cells generation as well as elevated the expression levels of CD235a and γ⁃globin . In addition , the proportion of CD71 /CD235a double⁃positive cells also increased in HCAR2⁃overexpressed K562 cells . Conclusion HCAR2 mediates hypoxia in promoting the erythroid differentiation of K562 cells .

Amyloid deposits are one of the hallmark pathological lesions of Alzheimer's disease (AD). They can be visualized by thioflavin-S, silver impregnation, Congo red staining, and immunohistochemical reactions. However, that amyloid deposits generate blue autofluorescence (auto-F) has been ignored. Here, we report that visible light-induced auto-F of senile plaques (SPs) was detected and validated with conventional methods. Brain slices from APP/PS1 (amyloid precursor protein/presenilin 1) transgenic mice were mounted on slides, rinsed, coverslipped and observed for details of the imaging and spectral characteristics of the auto-F of SPs. Then the slices were treated with the above classic methods for comparative validation. We found that the SP auto-F was greatest under blue-violet excitation with a specific emission spectrum, and was much easier, more sensitive, and reliable than the classic methods. Because it does not damage slices, observation of auto-F can be combined with all post-staining techniques in slices and for brain-wide imaging in AD.
