As a special branches of capillary electrophoresis(CE), nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) was variedly applied in the recent years. A brief summary on solvent properties and molecular interactions in nonaqueous solutions are introduced. Discussing of the approaches employed to enhance and tune selectivity in NACE. Special detection techniques for NACE are presented. Furthermore, a list of relevant applications in biological sample and its metabolin and also in pharmaceutical since 2000 is included, and also take perspective for NACE.

Objective:To investigate the effects of methyltransferase-like protein 14 (METTL14)-mediated long-chain non-coding RNA EIF3J antisense RNA1 (Inc EIF3J-AS1) on the migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cells and its mechanism.Methods:From September 2017 to December 2018, 10 pairs of cholangiocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, which were surgically resected and pathologically confirmed. The expression of METTL14 mRNA and Inc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the protein expression of METTL14 was detected by Western blotting. Cholangiocarcinoma cell lines HUCCTI and RBE were divided into control group and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group. The corresponding normal lentivirus was transfected in the control group, and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group was transfected with lentivirus that interfered with the expression of METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1, respectively. Transwell assay was used to detect the ability of cell migration and invasion, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and AKT protein.Results:The expressions of METTL14 mRNA and lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (0.075±0.012 vs 0.031±0.006, 0.140±0.032 vs 0.064±0.012), and there was a positive correlation between expression of METTL4 mRNA and expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 ( r=0.883, P=0.0007). The expression of METTL14 protein in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (0.354±0.131 vs 0.187±0.183). Compared with the control group, the expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 was significantly lower in METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group (0.217±0.020 vs 1.000±0.052, 0.149±0.066 vs 1.000±0.045). The migration and invasion ability of cell lines HUCCTI and RBE decreased significantly in lnc EIF3J-AS1 knockout group (5.00±0.58 vs 23.33±0.33, 20.33±0.67 vs 70.67±0.33; 12.00±0.58 vs 25.00±2.52, 22.33±0.89 vs 43.67±0.33). The expression of EGFR and p-AKT/AKT protein were also significantly decreased (0.109±0.015 vs 1.000±0.018, 0.226±0.036 vs 1.000±0.051; 0.118±0.052 vs 1.000±0.069, 0.132±0.098 vs 1.000±0.023). The above differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma mediated by METTL14 can promote tumor cell migration and invasion.

Purpose Hydrogen proton magnetic resonance imaging was used to study the brain metabolism of menstrual-related migraine(MRM)in different states,and to investigate its correlation with clinical features and estrogen and progesterone.Materials and Methods We recruited 36 patients with MRM diagnosed by neurology outpatient experts of the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology from April 2019 to August 2022,and also recruited 29 normal women with age-and education-matched.Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to assess neurochemical brain changes during interictal period(late follicular phase)and ictal period(perimenstrual phase)in them.The point resolved spectroscopic sequence was used to focus on the bilateral medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC)and bilateral thalamus.Sex hormone levels were collected on the same day of MRI acquisition.The ratios of NAA/Cr,GABA/Cr,Glx/Cr and Cho/Cr were observed.Metabolite changes and hormone levels were investigated among two groups.Furthermore,metabolite changes were investigated in a longitudinal design during the interictal period and ictal period.Results There were no significant differences in the levels of estrogen and progesterone both in the late follicular and perimenstrual periods.There were no significant differences in decline rate of them in perimenstrual periods between patients and normal people(P>0.05).During interictal period,the ratio of Cho/Cr in the region of left mPFC was lower significantly in the MRM group than that of control group(U=-2.957,P=0.003)and showed a significant negative correlation with attack frequency(r=-0.398,P=0.018).During ictal period,the women with MRM had significantly lower the ratio of GABA/Cr in the left mPFC and higher the ratio of Glx/Cr in the left thalamus compared to those of controls(U=-2.015,P=0.044;t=2.213,P=0.033).We found no significant correlations between these results and magraine characteristics(P>0.05).In addition,we found the ratio of GABA/Cr did not change(P>0.05),the ratio of Glx/Cr and Cho/Cr in right thalamus increased from interictal towards the ictal state for MRM patients(t=-2.181,P=0.038;Z=-2.414,P=0.016).Conclusion The present study suggests the existence of distinct cerebral metabolism states between MRM and control,and there are dynamic changes in cerebral metabolism with headache attacks.However,there is no significant difference in estrogen and progesterone from normal women,and its neural mechanism still needs to be further studied.
