Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of T ubacin,a selective inhibition of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6),on the release of inflammatory mediators in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activated microglias and its underlying mechanism.Methods BV-2 microglias were divided into control group (conventional culture),LPS group (100 ng/mL LPS),Tubacin treatment group (1 μmol/L Tubacin) and experimental group (LPS 100 ng/mL+Tubacin 1 μmol/L).The levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The production of nitric oxide (NO) was assayed by Griess reagent and the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was measured by Western blotting.The oxidative stress levels of BV-2 cells were determined by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) assays.Results As compared with those in the control group,the productions of IL-6,TNF-α and NO were notably increased,the iNOS protein expression was significantly up-regulated,the ROS level was apparently elevated and the SOD activity was significantly decreased in the LPS group (P＜0.05).As compared with those in the LPS group,the productions of IL-6,TNF-α and NO were notably decreased,the iNOS protein expression was significantly down-regulated,the ROS level was apparently lessened and the SOD activity was significantly increased in the experiment group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Tubacin curbs the release of inflammatory mediators in activated microglial cells induced by LPS,whose effect may be achieved through decreasing oxidative stress levels in LPS activated microglial cells.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of 1,2-dichloroethane(1,2-DCE) induced apoptosis on the expression of related proteins in human neuroblastoma cells(SH-SY5 Y cells). METHODS: SH-SY5 Y cells were cultured in complete medium with 1,2-DCE at final concentrations of 0,10,20,30,40,50,60,70 and 80 mmol/L. After being cultured for24 hours,the apoptosis of SH-SY5 Y cells was tested by flow cytometry using annexin Ⅴ-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of P53,B cell lymphoma/leukmia-2(BCL-2)and BCL-2 associated X protein(BAX). RESULTS: At 1,2-DCE concentrations of 0-80 mmol/L,the total apoptosis rate of SH-SY5 Y cells increased with 1,2-DCE concentrations in a dose-dependent manner(P < 0. 01). At 1,2-DCE concentrations of 30-80 mmol/L,the early apoptosis rate and total apoptosis rate of SH-SY5 Y cells increased significantly than the control group(P < 0. 05). Compared with the other groups,the protein expression of P53 was the lowest when the1,2-DCE concentration was 20 mmol/L(P < 0. 05),and the protein expression of BCL-2 and the BCL-2/BAX ratio were the lowest when the 1,2-DCE concentration was 70 mmol/L(P < 0. 05). There is no dose-response relationship in the1,2-DCE concentrations and the protein expression levels of P53,BCL-2 and BAX,and BCL-2/BAX ratio. Linear multiple regression analysis revealed that the total apoptosis rate of SH-SY5 Y cells treated with 1,2-DCE was associated with the protein expression of P53 and BCL-2,and BCL-2/BAX ratio(P < 0. 05). CONCLUSION: 1,2-DCE could inhibit the apoptosis of SH-SY5 Y cells. The mechanisms may be related to the changes of P53 and BCL-2 protein expression,and BCL-2/BAX relative amount.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of occupational musculoskeletal disorders(OMD) in workers of manufacturing industry,and to analyze its influencing factors.METHODS: A total of 1 168 first-line workers from 3manufacturing enterprises were selected as study subjects using convenient sampling.The self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the basic information and the ergonomics of work process.The Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire was used to investigate the prevalence of OMD.The workers were divided into non-OMD group and OMD group.RESULTS: The prevalence of OMD in these 1 168 workers was 34.9%.Comparing with the non-OMD group,the score of using auxiliary tools to carry the weights in the OMD group was higher(P<0.01),and the scores of straight waist and bent knees when transporting heavy object was lower(P<0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that male workers had a higher risk of OMD than female workers(P<0.05).The longer the length of service,the greater the risk of OMD(P<0.01).Shift workers had the higher risk of OMD than non-shift workers(P<0.01).The higher scores of using auxiliary tools to carry the weights and straight waist and bent knees when transporting heavy object(it mean that less use of the above labor behavior and posture),the greater the risk of OMD(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Sex,length of service,shift,labor behavior and posture are the influencing factors of OMD.

Endangered animal medicine is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine， which is distinctive in the treatment of diseases. At present， the rare and endangered medicinal materials such as tiger bone， rhinoceros horn， pangolin， antelope horn， bear bile are listed as national key protected animals， so their clinical application is limited， the current solution is mainly based on the ideas and methods of similar pharmacological effects， close genetic relationships， artificial breeding， and artificial synthesis to find and develop alternatives for endangered animal medicinal materials. Although artificially cultured bear bile and musk， and artificially synthesized tiger bone， bezoar and musk can solve the shortage of endangered animal medicines to a certain extent， there are still some problems such as difficult breakthroughs in breeding technology and incomplete recognition in the substitute industry. According to this， based on summarizing the existing substitutes for endangered animal medicines， our group proposed the concept of homology， homogeneity and equivalent of substitutes， and constructed a new idea to develop and evaluate substitutes by combining frontier biotechnology with multi-omics detection， so as to provide some support for protecting rare and endangered animals and solving the shortage of endangered animal medicines.

Objective     To evaluate the early clinical outcomes of the Renatus® balloon-expandable valve in the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Methods    From November 2021 to April 2022, a total of 38 patients who received Renatus® balloon-expandable valve for severe aortic stenosis in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were included. There were 22 males and 16 females, with an average age of 73.7±5.3 years. Mean aortic gradient and peak aortic jet velocity at baseline, post-procedure, and follow-up were compared. Clinical outcomes including all-cause mortality, perivalvular leakage, serious adverse cardiovascular events and the occurrence of permanent pacemaker implantation were assessed. Results    All patients completed the procedure successfully without conversion to thoracotomy or perioperative death. The post-implant mean aortic pressure gradient was decreased from 41.5 (27.8, 58.8) mm Hg to 6.0 (3.0, 8.0) mm Hg, and the peak aortic jet velocity was also decreased from 4.1±0.9 m/s to 1.7±0.4 m/s (P<0.001). Pacemakers were required in 2 (5.3%) patients. The median follow-up time was 27.5 (23.0, 87.5) d, with a follow-up rate of 100.0%. The mean aortic gradient was 8.0 (7.0, 10.8) mm Hg and peak aortic jet velocity was 2.0±0.3 m/s, showing significant improvement compared with those in the preoperative period (P<0.001). No severe aortic regurgitation or paravalvular leak was observed. There was no serious cardiovascular adverse event or reoperative event during the study period. Conclusion    Transcatheter aortic valve replacement with the domestic Renatus® balloon-expandable valve system is a safe and effective procedure for selected patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high risk or not candidates for surgical aortic valve replacement.

Objective To analyze the long-term outcome of modified Morrow surgery (interventricular septal cardiomyectomy) in the treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) in children. Methods The clinical data of the children with HOCM (aged≤14 years) who underwent modified Morrow surgery from January 2010 to August 2022 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including changes in hospitalization status, perioperative period, and long-term 15-lead electrocardiogram and echocardiography. Results A total of 29 patients were collected, including 22 males and 7 females, aged 10.00 (5.00, 12.00) years. Five (17.9%) patients had New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ. Ventricular septal cardiomyectomy was performed in all patients. All 29 patients survived and their cardiac function recovered after operation. Before discharge, right bundle branch block was observed in 2 patients and left bundle branch block in 6 patients. After surgery, in the left ventricular septal cardiomyectomy, the left atrial diameter decreased (P＜0.001), left ventricular end-systolic diameter increased (P=0.009), the peak pressure gradient of left ventricular outflow tract decreased (P＜0.001), and the thickness of ventricular septum decreased (P＜0.001). The systolic anterior motion of mitral valve disappeared and mitral regurgitent jet area decreased (P＜0.001). The flow velocity and peak pressure gradient of right ventricular outflow tract also decreased in the patients who underwent right ventricular septal cardiomyectomy. The average follow-up of the patients was 69.03±10.60 months. All the patients survived with their NYHA cardiac function grading Ⅰ or Ⅱ. No new-onset arrythmia event was found. Echocardiography indicated that the peak pressure gradient of the left ventricular outflow tract remained low (P<0.001). Moderate mitral regurgitation occurred in 2 patients, and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with moderate mitral regurgitation occurred in 1 patient after simple right ventricular septal cardiomyectomy. Conclusion Right ventricular or biventricular obstruction is frequent in the children with HOCM and they usually have more symptoms before surgery. Modified Morrow surgery can effectively relieve outflow tract obstruction and improve their cardiac function. The long-term outcome is satisfactory. However, the posterior wall of the left ventricle remains hypertrophic. Also, there is an increased risk of a conduction block.

Objective To summarize and analyze the preliminary clinical outcomes of the KokaclipTM transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair system for severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR). Methods This study was a single-arm, prospective, single-group target value clinical trial that enrolled patients who underwent the KokaclipTM transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) system for DMR in the Department of Heart Surgery of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, Guangdong Cardiovascular Institute from June 2022 to January 2023. Differences in the grade of mitral regurgitation (MR) during the perioperative and follow-up periods were compared, and the incidences of adverse events such as all-cause death, thoracotomy conversion, reoperation, and severe recurrence of MR during the study period were investigated. Results The enrolled patient population consisted of 14 (50.0%) females with a mean age of 70.9±5.4 years. Twenty-eight (100.0%) patients were preoperatively diagnosed with typeⅡ DMR, with a prolapse width of 12.5 (11.0, 16.1) mm, a degree of regurgitation 4+ leading to pulmonary venous reflux, and a New York Heart Association cardiac function class≥Ⅲ. All patients completed the TEER procedure successfully, with immediate postoperative improvement of MR to 0, 1+, and 2+ grade in 2 (7.1%), 21 (75.0%), and 5 (17.9%) patients, respectively. Mitral valve gradient was 2.5 (2.0, 3.0) mm Hg. Deaths, thoracotomy conversion, or device complications such as unileaflet clamping, clip dislodgement, or leaflet injury were negative. Twenty-eight (100.0%) patients completed at least 3-month postoperative follow-up with a median follow-up time of 5.9 (3.6, 6.8) months, during which patients had a mean MR grade of 1.0+ (1.0+, 2.0+) grade and a significant improvement from preoperative values (P<0.001). There was no recurrence of ≥3+ regurgitation, pulmonary venous reflux, reoperation, new-onset mitral stenosis, or major adverse cardiovascular events. Twenty-two (78.6%) patients’ cardiac function improved to classⅠorⅡ. Conclusion The domestic KokaclipTM TEER system has shown excellent preliminary clinical results in selected DMR patients with a high safety profile and significant improvement in MR. Additional large sample volume, prospective, multicenter studies, and long-term follow-up are expected to validate the effectiveness of this system in the future.
