Objective To explore the effect of autophagy regulator on the injury of rat hippocampal neurons induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD).Methods Rat hippocampal neurons were cultivated in primary and subjected to OGD to simulate neuronal hypoxic ischemia injury for 2 hours or 6 hours followed by reperfusion for 12 hours with or without 3-methyladenine (3-MA, 20μmol/L) or rapamycin (0.2μmol/L). The morphology of neurons was observed with optical microscope. The expression of autophagy-related protein (LC3, P62) and apoptosis-related protein (cleaved caspase-3) were assessed by Western Blot analysis. The apoptosis of neurons was detected by flow cytometry, the release rate of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was calculated by automatic biochemical analyzer, and the cell activity was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric assay.Results Compared with the control group, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 3.091±0.160, 3.422±0.186 vs. 0.256±0.021), cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 0.230±0.025, 0.440±0.051 vs. 0.050±0.007), neuronal apoptotic rate, LDH release rate [(38.50±4.15)%, (59.60±5.65)% vs. (12.40±1.32)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.290±0.025,0.120±0.026 vs. 0.450±0.040), neuronal activity [(71.40±7.23)%, (42.80±4.12)% vs. (100.30±2.30)%] were decreased at 2 hours or 6 hours after OGD (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 2 hours and it was combined with 3-MA, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 2.281±0.121), the neuronal activity [(51.10±5.73)%] were decreased, while the expression of P62 and cleaved caspase-3 (gray scale: 0.410±0.037, 0.330±0.027, respectively), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (47.30±4.43)%] were increased (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 2 hours and it was combined with rapamycin, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 3.689±0.214), the neuronal activity [(85.30±8.56)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 0.170±0.040, 0.090±0.096, respectively), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (24.30±2.14)%] were decreased (allP < 0.05). On the contrary, when the time of OGD was 6 hours and it was combined with 3-MA, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 3.021±0.178, 0.240±0.017), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (36.60±3.45)%] were decreased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.350±0.060), the neuronal activity [(59.70±6.13)%] were increased (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 6 hours and it was combined with rapamycin, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 3.923±0.201, 0.590±0.062), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate:(71.20±7.81)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.070±0.008), the neuronal activity [(27.30±2.12)%] were decreased (allP < 0.05).Conclusion The enhancement of autophagy has protective effect on neurons under the condition of mild OGD, while it can aggravate the injury of neurons induced by a long-time OGD.

Purpose To investigate the topological structure differences between the migraine patients group and the normal control group by using resting-state brain complex networks constructed based on graph theory. Materials and Methods Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging dataset were obtained from 22 migraine patients and 22 normal subjects. The functional complex networks of the two groups were constructed, and parameters including average clustering coefficient, characteristic path length, small worldness, assortativity, and betweenness of the two groups were respectively calculated. Results When compared with the parameters of normal control group, average clustering coefficient of migraine patients group was larger, small worldness and assortativity were also changed. The characteristic path length of the caudate nucleus and putamen areas presented abnormal in the migraine patients group. Betweenness centrality of the thalamus, inferior occipital gyrus and occipital gyrus increased in the migraine patients group. Conclusion The abnormal brain regions in the migraine patients group were mainly associated with pain processing, visual processing and sensory information relay. This study may contribute to better understanding and interpreting corresponding clinical condition of migraine.

Objective To observe the effect of inhibiting the abnormal activation of cdc2 gene on the coordination of mice with Niemann-Pick disease type C(NPC).Methods Recombinant adeno-associated virus(rAAV) encoding cdc2-siRNA was packaged,and then was injected into the cerebellum of 2 weeks old npc-/-mice.Footprint test and vertical screen test were performed to assess the coordination of mice at the age of 8 weeks.Purkinje cells visualized by HE staining in cerebellum were counted,and the phosphorylation of microtubule-associated protein Tau recognized by PHF-1 antibody was detected by immunoblotting technology.Results (1) Footprint test showed that the stride length in cdc2-siRNA npc-/-group((4.92±0.31)cm) was markedly longer than that in empty vector npc-/-group((4.05 ± 0.19) cm) (P＜ 0.05).(2) Vertical screen test showed that the latency to turn head upwards or reach the upper edge of the screen in cdc2-siRNA npc-/-group((26.01± 1.82) s,(50.93±1.98) s) was significantly shorter than that in the empty vector npc-/-group ((31.96± 3.47) s,(56.89 ± 2.97) s),respectively (P＜ 0.05 for all comparisons).(3) The number of Purkinje cells in cerebellum was dramatically increased in cdc2-siRNA npc-/-group(11.0±2.5) compared with the empty vector npc-/-group (5.1 ± 2.2) (P＜0.05).(4)The relative optical densities of cdc2 and phosphorylated Tau immunoreactive bands in cdc2-siRNA npc-/-group(1.42±0.22,0.95±0.31)were significantly lower than those in the empty vector npc-/-group(2.11±0.29,2.61±0.62),respectively (P＜0.05 for all comparisons).Conclusion Inhibiting the abnormal activation of cdc2 gene can improve the coordination of npc-/-mice by ameliorating Purkinje cell's loss and reducing the hyperphosphorylation of Tau in cerebellum.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is the most common complication of spinal osteoporosis, mostly occurring in thoracolumbar segment, which can cause acute and chronic pain at the fracture site and loss of vertebral height, and can lead to progressive kyphosis. For kyphosis caused by old OVCF, open surgery such as anterior or posterior decompression and fusion, internal fixation and osteotomy can improve local sequence and achieve satisfactory kyphotic correction which is difficult to complete in percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), and reconstruct the sagittal balance. Due to the older age of OVCF patients, some of them have poor general conditions. In addition, osteoporosis leads to increased vertebral fragility, which increases the risk of surgery and postoperative internal fixation failure. The anterior approach presents some problems including a complex approach and poor mechanical stability. At present, most studies focus on posterior surgery. Due to the limitation of kyphosis correction by decompression and fixation alone, osteotomy is often required to correct kyphosis. In cases of old OVCF with kyphosis, the screw holding capability decreases due to the decrease of bone mineral density. Additionally, once the screw loosens, the orthopedic effect is inevitably affected. To enhance pedicle screws, most studies have utilized bone cement to increase the axial pullout force of the vertebral body and improve screw stability. The selection from different osteotomy methods is a critical determinant in achieving favorable surgical outcomes for patients.

By conducting retrospective analysis, this study aim to investigate the resistance mechanism of quinolones in non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS). A total of 105 strains of NTS isolated from clinical specimens from the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University from May 2020 to February 2021 were used as research objects. VITEK2 Compact automatic identification drug sensitivity analysis system and serological test were used to identify the strains. The sensitivity of the strains to ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and nalidixic acid was detected by AGAR dilution method. The whole genome of 105 strains of NTS was sequenced. Abricate and other softwares were used to analyze drug-resistant genes, including plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance gene (PMQR) and Quinolone resistance determination region (QRDR). Serotypes and ST types were analyzed using SISTR and MLST, and phylogenetic trees were constructed. The results showed that the NTS isolated in this region were mainly ST34 Salmonella typhimurium (53.3%). The drug sensitivity results showed that the drug resistance rates of NTS to ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and nalidixic acid were 30.4%, 1.9% and 22.0%, respectively, and the intermediate rates of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin were 27.6% and 54.2%.A total of 46 (74.2%) of the 62 quinolone non-susceptible strains carried the PMQR gene, mainly qnrS1 (80.4%), followed by aac(6′)-Ib-cr(15.2%); there were 14 NTS and 8 NTS had gyrA and parC gene mutations, respectively. The gyrA was mutations at the amino acid position 87, Asp87Tyr, Asp87Asn, Asp87Gly, and Thr57Ser mutations were detected in parC. In conclusion, this study found that NTS had relatively high resistance to quinolones, carrying qnrS1 gene mainly resulted in decreased sensitivity of NTS to ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin, and gyrA:87 mutation mainly resulted in NTS resistance to Nalidixic acid; Salmonella typhimurium in clinical isolates showed clonal transmission and required further epidemiological surveillance.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients after cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. METHODS: A retrospective case control study was done in patients who underwent cardiac surgery from 2003 to 2007 in Second Xiangya Hospital, with 340 patients in an AKI group and the other 4 760 patients without AKI as a control group. All variables were analyzed by univariate analysis, Mann-Whitney U test and logistic regression. RESULTS: AKI occurred in the 340 patients (6.7% incidence). Univariate analysis revealed that age, preoperative serum creatinine, preoperative ejection fraction (EF), preoperative beta2-microglobulin, preoperative blood albumin, preoperative blood uric acid, intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time, intraoperative aortic cross-clamp time, and dosage of mannitol were significantly related to AKI following cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that preoperative serum creatinine (P<0.001), preoperative ejection fraction (EF) (P<0.001), preoperative beta2-microglobulin (P=0.002), preoperative blood uric acid (P=0.015), intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time (P<0.001), and intraoperative aortic cross-clamp time (P<0.001) were independent risk factors for AKI. CONCLUSION The incidence of AKI after cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation is closely related with a variety of perioperative risk factors. Our data suggest that patients planning to accept cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation should be more comprehensively assessed and monitored, thereby preventing the occurrence of AKI.
