Objective:To evaluate the role of miR-188-5p in oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury to mouse neuroblastoma (N2a) cells and its relationship with small ubiquitin-like modifier-specific proteases 3 (SENP3).Methods:N2a cells were cultured and divided into 5 groups ( n=23 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), OGD/R group, group NC, transfection of mir-188-5p agonist group (group M) and transfection of mir-188-5p inhibitor group group (group I). Cells in group C were cultured routinely.Cells in group NC, group M and group I were transfected with mir-188-5p negative control miRNA, agonist and inhibitor, respectively.N2a cells were subjected to OGD for 3 h followed by restoration of oxygen-glucose supply to establish the model of OGD/R injury.At 24 h of oxygen-glucose restoration, the cell viability was recorded by the cell counting kit-8 assay, the amount of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) released was detected, the expression of miR-188-5p and SENP3 mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and SENP3 expression was determined by Western blot.The targeting relationship between miR-188-5p and SENP3 mRNA was detected using dual luciferase reporter assay. Results:Compared with group C, the cell viability was significantly decreased, amount of LDH released was increased, and expression of SENP3 and its mRNA was up-regulated in the other 4 groups, miR-188-5p expression was down-regulated in OGD/R and I groups, and miR-188-5p expression was up-regulated in group M ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell viability was significantly decreased, amount of LDH released was increased, and expression of SENP3 and its mRNA was up-regulated, and miR-188-5p expression was down-regulated in group I, and the cell viability was increased, amount of LDH released was decreased, expression of SENP3 and its mRNA was down-regulated, and miR-188-5p expression was up-regulated in group M ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The dual luciferase reporter assay showed that miR-188-5p could act directly on SENP3. Conclusion:miR-188-5p is involved in OGD/R injury, which is associated with targeted down-regulation of SENP3 expression in N2a cells.

Objective:To compare the post-operative outcomes between extended lateral approach and L-shaped lateral approach in surgical treatment of Sanders type III intra-articular calcaneal fractures.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was made on clinical data of 34 patients with fresh Sanders type III intra-articular calcaneal fractures hospitalized in Langfang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2014 to October 2017. There were 33 males and 1 female, with the age of 18-56 years [(42.5±9.4)years]. All fractures were fresh. Seventeen patients were fixed by the extended lateral approach (extended approach group) and seventeen patients by L-shaped lateral approach (L-shaped approach group). Operation duration, intraoperative bleeding volume, length of hospital stay, one-stage wound healing rate and complication rate were observed. B?hler and Gissane angle were measured before operation, one week after operation and 12 months after operation. American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scale was applied to evaluate function recovery.Results:There were no significant differences between groups in operative time and intraoperative bleeding volume ( P>0.05). There were significant differences between extended approach group and L-shaped approach group in length of hospital stay [(15.7±4.0)days vs.(22.4±9.6)days], one-stage wound healing rate [88%(15/17) vs. 47%(8/12)] and postoperative complication rate [12%(2/17) vs. 47%(8/17)] ( P<0.05). The B?hler and Gissane angles did not differ significantly between groups before operation and one week and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). At postoperative 12 months, the B?hler and Gissane angles were improved from preoperative (8.2±6.0)°, (85.3±10.5)° to (23.9±6.1)° and (119.3±6.2)° respectively in extended approach group, and those from preoperative (9.4±3.9)°, (85.5±7.1)° to (25.8±3.7)° and (122.2±5.6)° respectively in L-shaped approach group (all P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the AOFAS score was (86.9±7.5)points in extended approach group, with the excellent and good rate of 88%; and was (83.3±12.5)points in L-shaped approach group, with the excellent and good rate of 76% ( P>0.05). While the score of hindfoot joint activity in extended approach group was (5.8±0.7)points, significantly higher than (3.4±1.0)points in L-shaped approach group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For Sanders III intraarticular calcaneal fractures, compared with L-shaped approach group, plate fixation via extended approach can promote fracture healing, shorten hospital stay, reduce incidence of complications and facilitate function recovery of subtalar joint.

Drug-drug interactions (DDI) change dose-response relationships, and may result in low efficacy or high toxicity, which are important considerations especially in medical practice with multiple-drug therapies. Predicting clinically significant drug interactions during new drug development is an important part of benefit and risk assessment in drug development and review. This article summarizes the purpose and significance of drug interactions in new drug development, the main content and precautions of DDI studies in vivo and in vitro. Drug interaction studies on novel drug approvals for 2020 in the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) are examined, respectively. It aims to provide reference for DDI studies and regulatory reviews in new drug development in our country.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the synergistic effect between the N-terminus domain of the a2 isoform of vacuolar ATPase (a2NTD) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) on modulating macrophage polarization and the impact of polarized macrophages on proliferation of gastric cancer cells.
METHODSPeripheral blood mononuclear cells were derived from healthy donor and induced into macrophages. Then macrophages were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (RPMI 1640), the experimental group I (M-CSF 100 μg/L), the experimental group II (a2NTD 500 μg/L) and the experimental group III (a2NTD 500 μg/L plus M-CSF 100 μg/L). After stimulation for 48 hours, double color immunofluorescence cytochemistry was adopted to detect the expression of cell membrane molecules on macrophages; ELISA was used to measure the secretion of cytokines IL-10 and IL-12; CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate the impact of macrophages on proliferation ability of gastric cancer cell strain SGC-7901.
RESULTSThe expression of CD68, also known as macrophage surface antigen, was detected on macrophage membrane in all four groups (+). The mean absorbance (A) was 0.092 ± 0.005 in control group, 0.095 ± 0.006 in group I, 0.094 ± 0.005 in group II, 0.094 ± 0.005 in group III, and no significant differences were observed among 4 groups (all P>0.05). Meanwhile, the expression of CD206, which mainly exists on M2 macrophage membrane, was hard to detect in control group (-) with A 0.025 ± 0.004; it was normal in groupI and group II (+) with A 0.191 ± 0.012 in group I and 0.197 ± 0.136 in group II (P=0.212), and it was up-regulated significantly in group III (+++) with A 0.285 ± 0.011. There were significant differences between either two groups except group I and group II (all P<0.01). Secretion of IL-10 in group I and group II [(85.65 ± 13.64) ng/L and (87.77 ± 14.25) ng/L] was significantly higher compared with control group [(71.67 ± 7.56) ng/L, P<0.01]. Secretion of IL-12 in group I and group II [(9.91 ± 1.50) ng/L and (10.15 ± 1.80) ng/L] was significantly lower compared with control group [(16.87 ± 1.10) ng/L, P<0.01]. Secretion of IL-10 in group III [(116.98 ± 14.27) ng/L] was the highest, and secretion of IL-12 [(5.31 ± 0.88) ng/L] was the lowest (all P<0.01). There was a synergistic effect between a2NTD and M-CSF on the secretion of both IL-10 and IL-12. Elevated proliferation of gastric cancer cell strain SGC-7901 was detected in all four groups, in which group III showed the greatest impact compared with other 3 groups (P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONSa2NTD and M-CSF show a synergistic effect in modulating macrophage phenotype and the secretion of IL-10 and IL-12. The polarized macrophage can significantly enhance proliferation of gastric cancer cell strain SGC-7901.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the effect of general anesthesia on postoperative melatonin secretion in 4-to 6-year-old children with snoring.
METHODS:
Twenty children with snoring aged 4-6 years of either gender (ASA grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ) were selected for adenoidectomy.Before, during and 3 days after the operation, salivary melatonin levels of the children were measured at 11 selected time points (T1-T11).The illumination intensity and body temperature of the children were recorded at each time point of measurement.The sleep time of the children in 3 days after the operation was recorded, and postoperative pain scores (FLACC) and Riker and Rehabilitation Quality Rating Scale-15(QoR-15) scores were assessed.Sleep Apnea Life Quality Evaluation Questionnaire (OSA-18) was used to evaluate postoperative recovery of the children at 28 days after the operation.The incidence of major adverse events of the children during hospitalization was recorded.
RESULTS:
No significant difference was found in baseline salivary melatonin level among the 20 children before the operation.Salivary melatonin level at 7 am after the operation (T8) was significantly lowered as compared with that before the surgery (T4)(
CONCLUSIONS
In preschool children with snoring, general anesthesia affects but does not inhibit melatonin secretion on the first night after surgery, and minor surgeries under general anesthesia in the morning do not cause significant changes in melatonin secretion to cause disturbance of the circadian rhythm in these children.
