Objective:To explore the role of the fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) in human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) suffering ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI).Methods:The in vitro IRI mo-del was established in HK-2 cells by induction with antimycin A, A23187 and 2-deoxy-D-glucose.The cells were divided into control group and ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group). The mRNA and protein expressions of FTO, B-cell lymphoma / leukemia 2(Bcl-2)-associated X(Bax), Bcl-2 and cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase(cleaved Caspase-3) in HK-2 cells before and after IRI were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(qPCR) and Western blot, respectively.Cell apoptosis was measured using flow cytometry.The level ofe N 6-methy-ladenosine (m 6A) RNA was detected by colorimetry. Results:(1) The mRNA expressions of FTO (0.15±0.05 vs.1.00±0.23) and Bcl-2 (0.14±0.07 vs.1.02±0.25) in I/R group were significantly lower than those in control group; While those of Bax (3.10±0.35 vs.1.00±0.13) and cleaved Caspase-3 (4.21±0.56 vs.1.00±0.09) were significantly higher ( t=6.28, 5.84, -9.83, and -9.84, respectively, all P<0.01). (2) The protein expressions of FTO (0.69±0.14 vs.1.37±0.02) and Bcl-2 (0.50±0.12 vs.1.25±0.21) were significantly lower in I/R group than those of control group; While those of Bax (1.04±0.08 vs.0.57±0.06) and cleaved Caspase-3 (0.99±0.05 vs.0.36±0.07) were significantly higher ( t=8.10, 5.49, -8.22, and -12.09, respectively, all P<0.05). (3) Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rate of HK-2 cells in I/R group was significantly higher [(61.70±1.01)% vs.(0.16±0.10)%, t=63.80, P<0.01]. (4) Compared with the control group, the percentage of m 6A modification level in total RNA in I/R group was significantly higher [(3.13±0.21)% vs.(1.10±0.26)%, t=-10.61, P<0.01]. Conclusions:FTO-mediated RNA m 6A modification may affect renal IRI by regulating the apoptosis of HK-2 cells.

OBJECTIVE:To overview and analyze the current evidence of systematic reviews of drug treatment for children with tic disorder (TD),and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical practice. METHODS :Retrieved from Medline ,Embase, CBM,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang database ,and so on ,systematic reviews about the efficacy and safety of drug treatment for TD were collected. AMSTAR- 2 tools were used to evaluate the quality of included studies ;the intervention measures ,diagnosis standard,outcome index ,the types of included studies ,main conclusion ,control measures ,effect sizes of different drug treatment were also extracted and analyzed descriptively. RESULTS :A total of 27 systematic reviews were included ,of which 5 were medium-quality,8 low-quality and 14 very-low-quality. Meta-analysis showed that although typical psychiatric drugs could control tic symptoms ,ADR were prominent and the safety was not good ;risperidone and aripiprazole as atypical psychiatric drugs had good efficacy and safety ,and the research evidence was relatively sufficient. Clonidine as α2 adrenergic agonist could effectively control tic symptoms with fewer ADR ,especially for patients with affention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),and research evidence was sufficient. Tiapride could effectively improve tic symptoms ,and the overall tolerance was better. Tomoxetine and methylphenidate could significantly improve the tic symptoms of tic patients with ADHD. CONCLUSIONS :In the clinical treatment of TD in children ,ADR induced by typical antipsychotics are prominent and the safety is not good ;risperidone, aripiprazole,clonidine and tiapride have good efficacy and safety. Clonidine ,tomoxetine and methylphenidate could significantly improve tic symptoms of TD patients with ADHD. But the quality of systematic review methodology for tomoxetine and methylp- henidate is not good and further improvement is needed.
