Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a central neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive cognitive decline and memory impairment in clinical. Currently, there are no effective treatments for AD. In recent years, a variety of therapeutic approaches from different perspectives have been explored to treat AD. Although the drug therapies targeted at the clearance of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) had made a breakthrough in clinical trials, there were associated with adverse events. Neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the onset and progression of AD. Continuous neuroinflammatory was considered to be the third major pathological feature of AD, which could promote the formation of extracellular amyloid plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. At the same time, these toxic substances could accelerate the development of neuroinflammation, form a vicious cycle, and exacerbate disease progression. Reducing neuroinflammation could break the feedback loop pattern between neuroinflammation, Aβ plaque deposition and Tau tangles, which might be an effective therapeutic strategy for treating AD. Traditional Chinese herbs such as Polygonum multiflorum and Curcuma were utilized in the treatment of AD due to their ability to mitigate neuroinflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and indomethacin had been shown to reduce the level of inflammasomes in the body, and taking these drugs was associated with a low incidence of AD. Biosynthetic nanomaterials loaded with oxytocin were demonstrated to have the capability to anti-inflammatory and penetrate the blood-brain barrier effectively, and they played an anti-inflammatory role via sustained-releasing oxytocin in the brain. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells could reduce neuroinflammation and inhibit the activation of microglia. The secretion of mesenchymal stem cells could not only improve neuroinflammation, but also exert a multi-target comprehensive therapeutic effect, making it potentially more suitable for the treatment of AD. Enhancing the level of TREM2 in microglial cells using gene editing technologies, or application of TREM2 antibodies such as Ab-T1, hT2AB could improve microglial cell function and reduce the level of neuroinflammation, which might be a potential treatment for AD. Probiotic therapy, fecal flora transplantation, antibiotic therapy, and dietary intervention could reshape the composition of the gut microbiota and alleviate neuroinflammation through the gut-brain axis. However, the drugs of sodium oligomannose remain controversial. Both exercise intervention and electromagnetic intervention had the potential to attenuate neuroinflammation, thereby delaying AD process. This article focuses on the role of drug therapy, gene therapy, stem cell therapy, gut microbiota therapy, exercise intervention, and brain stimulation in improving neuroinflammation in recent years, aiming to provide a novel insight for the treatment of AD by intervening neuroinflammation in the future.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism by which modified Guishenwan alleviates inflammation in the rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS） by regulating the mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）/nuclear factor kappa B （NF-κB） pathway. MethodsAccording to the random number table method， 60 SPF female SD rats were randomized into a normal group （n=10） and a modeling group （n=50）. The normal group received routine feeding， while the modeling group was administrated with letrozole （1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） by gavage for 21 days for the modeling of PCOS. The successfully modeled rats were randomized into model， diane-35 （0.2 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， high- （16.04 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， medium- （8.02 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， low- （4.01 g·kg^-1·d^-1） dose modified Guishenwan groups. The drug intervention groups were administrated with modified Guishenwan at corresponding doses by gavage， and the normal group and model group were given equal volumes of normal saline. All the groups were continuously treated for 28 days. After treatment， Gram staining of vaginal smears was employed to observe the estrous cycle in each group. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to determine the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， estradiol （E₂）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， testosterone （T）， and progesterone （PROG） in the plasma， as well as interleukin-1 beta （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10） in the plasma and ovarian tissue. The LH/FSH ratio was calculated. The morphological changes in the ovarian tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of extracellular-regulated protein kinase （ERK）， c-Jun N-terminal kinase （JNK）， p38 MAPK， NF-κB p65， IκBα， p-JNK， p-ERK， p-p38 MAPK， p-NF-κB p65， and p-IκBα in the ovarian tissue. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the mRNA levels of ERK， JNK， p38 MAPK， NF-κB p65， and IκBα in the ovarian tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group was in the estrus phase， with an increase in the number of ovarian vesicles and decreases in granulosa cells and corpus luteum formation （P<0.05）， and lowered levels of FSH and E₂ and elevated levels of LH， T， and LH/FSH in the plasma （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， high-， medium-， and low-dose modified Guishenwan recovered the estrous cycle， increased the generation of granulosa cells and corpus luteum， reduced the number of vesicles， elevated the levels of FSH and E₂， and lowered the levels LH， T， and LH/FSH （P<0.05， P<0.01） in a dose-dependent manner. High-dose modified Guishenwan demonstrated the best therapeutic effect. Therefore， subsequent experiments for exploring the treatment mechanism were conducted in the normal group， model group， and high-dose modified Guishenwan group. The results showed that compared with the model group， high-dose modified Guishenwan lowered the levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， and IL-10 and elevated the level of IL-10 in the plasma and ovarian tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the protein levels of p-ERK， p-JNK， p-p38 MAPK， p-NF-κB p65， and p-IκBα， while up-regulating the protein level of IκBα （P<0.01）. At the same time， the mRNA levels of ERK， JNK， p38 MAPK， and NF-κB p65 in the high-dose modified Guishenwan group were down-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionModified Guishenwan can improve the ovarian function in rat model of PCOS induced by letrozole and has anti-inflammatory effects， which may be related to inhibition of the MAPK/NF-κB pathway.

ObjectiveBased on the adenosine 5'-monophosphate （AMP）-activated protein kinase/protein kinase B/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （AMPK/Akt/Nrf2） pathway， this study aims to explore the mechanism by which modified Guishenwan improves glucose and lipid metabolism and oxidative stress in polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS） rats. MethodsA PCOS rat model was established by continuous oral administration of letrozole （1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） for 21 days. Successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into a model group， a metformin group （0.25 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose modified Guishenwan groups （4.01， 8.02， and 16.04 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， with 8 rats in each group. Ten normal rats were assigned to the normal group. The drug groups were given their respective doses， while the normal and model groups were given an equal volume of normal saline. Intervention lasted for 4 weeks. Testosterone （T）， estradiol （E₂）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， and luteinizing hormone （LH） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and the LH/FSH ratio was calculated. Fasting blood glucose （FPG）， fasting insulin （FINS）， triglyceride （TG）， and total cholesterol （TC） levels were measured using an automatic biochemical analyzer， and the insulin resistance index （HOMA-IR） and insulin sensitivity index （HOMA-ISI） were calculated. Oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） and insulin tolerance test （ITT） were conducted. Malondialdehyde （MDA）， advanced glycation end products （AGEs）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） levels in serum and ovarian tissue were measured using a chemical fluorescence method. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to assess ovarian tissue pathology. Real-time quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to measure the expression of AMPK/Akt/Nrf2 pathway-related genes and proteins in ovarian tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group exhibited significantly increased levels of T， LH， LH/FSH， FPG， FINS， TG， TC， and HOMA-IR， while FSH， E₂， and HOMA-ISI were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. MDA and AGEs levels were significantly higher in both serum and ovarian tissue， and SOD levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05）. AMPK， Akt， and Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression in ovarian tissue was also significantly reduced （P<0.05）. The OGTT and ITT results showed significantly higher blood glucose levels at each time point （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with impaired glucose and insulin tolerance. Ovarian follicles showed polycystic changes， reduced corpus luteum， and sparse granulosa cell layers. Compared with the model group， the metformin group and the high-dose modified Guishenwan group showed significant decreases in T， LH， LH/FSH， FPG， FINS， TG， TC， and HOMA-IR， while FSH， E₂， and HOMA-ISI were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the high-dose modified Guishenwan group， MDA and AGEs levels in serum and ovarian tissue were significantly reduced， and SOD levels were significantly increased （P<0.05）. The mRNA and protein expression of AMPK， Akt， and Nrf2 in ovarian tissue was significantly increased （P<0.05）. OGTT and ITT results showed that blood glucose levels in rats decreased significantly at each time point （P<0.05， P<0.01）. No obvious abnormalities were observed in ovarian tissue. Compared with the low-dose modified Guishenwan group， the high-dose group showed significant decreases in T， LH， LH/FSH， FPG， FINS， TG， TC， and HOMA-IR， while FSH， E₂， and HOMA-ISI were significantly increased （P<0.05）. OGTT and ITT results indicated that the high-dose modified Guishenwan group significantly improved glucose and insulin tolerance in rats. No significant abnormalities were observed in ovarian tissue. ConclusionModified Guishenwan effectively improves glucose and lipid metabolism abnormalities and inhibits oxidative stress in PCOS rats， potentially through regulation of the AMPK/Akt/Nrf2 pathway.

ObjectiveTo investigate the status of tooth loss in people aged 50 and above, so as to understand their oral health status and provide scientific evidences for promoting oral health of middle-aged and elderly people. MethodsA total of 400 patients who visited the department of stomatology at Sijing Hospital in Songjiang District of Shanghai were performed oral health examinations and their information was collected according to the national epidemiological survey standards for oral health. ResultsThere were statistically significant differences in tooth loss among people aged 50 and above with different ages, educational levels, occupations, types of medical insurance and chronic diseases (P<0.05), but gender and monthly income had no statistically significant correlations with tooth loss (P>0.05). Among lifestyle factors, smoking, alcohol consumption and tea drinking had no statistically significant impacts on the number of remaining teeth (P>0.05), but toothbrushing frequency, flossing frequency, toothpick use frequency, toothbrush replacement frequency, and tooth loosening were statistically associated with the number of remaining teeth (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analyses indicated that a total of 7 related factors including age, educational level, occupation, medical payment type, chronic disease, tooth loosening and toothpick use frequency were significantly associated with the number level of remaining teeth in individuals aged 50 and above. ConclusionAge, chronic disease, and tooth loosening were influencing factors affecting the number of teeth left in people aged 50 and above. It is recommended to strengthen oral health education and improve healthcare awareness to reduce the risk of tooth loss in people aged 50 and above.

Neuroscience is a significant frontier discipline within the natural sciences and has become an important interdisciplinary frontier scientific field. Brain is one of the most complex organs in the human body, and its structural and functional analysis is considered the “ultimate frontier” of human self-awareness and exploration of nature. Driven by the strategic layout of “China Brain Project”, Chinese scientists have conducted systematic research focusing on “understanding the brain, simulating the brain, and protecting the brain”. They have made breakthrough progress in areas such as the principles of brain cognition, mechanisms and interventions for brain diseases, brain-like computation, and applications of brain-machine intelligence technology, aiming to enhance brain health through biomedical technology and improve the quality of human life. Due to limited understanding and comprehension of neuroscience, there are still many important unresolved issues in the field of neuroscience, resulting in a lack of effective measures to prevent and protect brain health. Therefore, in addition to actively developing new generation drugs, exploring non pharmacological treatment strategies with better health benefits and higher safety is particularly important. Epidemiological data shows that, exercise is not only an indispensable part of daily life but also an important non-pharmacological approach for protecting brain health and preventing neurodegenerative diseases, forming an emerging research field known as motor neuroscience. Basic research in motor neuroscience primarily focuses on analyzing the dynamic coding mechanisms of neural circuits involved in motor control, breakthroughs in motor neuroscience research depend on the construction of dynamic monitoring systems across temporal and spatial scales. Therefore, high spatiotemporal resolution detection of movement processes and movement-induced changes in brain structure and neural activity signals is an important technical foundation for conducting motor neuroscience research and has developed a set of tools based on traditional neuroscience methods combined with novel motor behavior decoding technologies, providing an innovative technical platform for motor neuroscience research. The protective effect of exercise in neurodegenerative diseases provides broad application prospects for its clinical translation. Applied research in motor neuroscience centers on deciphering the regulatory networks of neuroprotective molecules mediated by exercise. From the perspectives of exercise promoting neurogenesis and regeneration, enhancing synaptic plasticity, modulating neuronal functional activity, and remodeling the molecular homeostasis of the neuronal microenvironment, it aims to improve cognitive function and reduce the incidence of Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. This has also advanced research into the molecular regulatory networks mediating exercise-induced neuroprotection and facilitated the clinical application and promotion of exercise rehabilitation strategies. Multidimensional analysis of exercise-regulated neural plasticity is the theoretical basis for elucidating the brain-protective mechanisms mediated by exercise and developing intervention strategies for neurological diseases. Thus,real-time analysis of different neural signals during active exercise is needed to study the health effects of exercise throughout the entire life cycle and enhance lifelong sports awareness. Therefore, this article will systematically summarize the innovative technological developments in motor neuroscience research, review the mechanisms of neural plasticity that exercise utilizes to protect the brain, and explore the role of exercise in the prevention and treatment of major neurodegenerative diseases. This aims to provide new ideas for future theoretical innovations and clinical applications in the field of exercise-induced brain protection.

Objective To investigate the impact of COVID-19 infection on the early clinical outcomes of patients undergoing valve replacement. Methods Perioperative data of patients who underwent single valve replacement at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chinese People's Liberation Army Medical University from January to February 2023 were consecutively collected. Based on COVID-19 infection status, patients were divided into a COVID-19 group and a non-COVID-19 group. The perioperative data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 136 patients were included, comprising 53 males and 83 females, with a mean age of (53.4±10.2) years. There were 32 patients receiving aortic valve replacements, 102 mitral valve replacements, and 2 tricuspid valve replacements. The COVID-19 group comprised 70 patients, and the non-COVID-19 group included 66 patients. No statistical difference was observed in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups [9.09% (6/66) vs. 11.43% (8/70), P=0.654]. However, the COVID-19 group had longer postoperative mechanical ventilation duration [1 201.00 (1 003.75, 1 347.75) min vs. 913.50 (465.50, 1 251.00) min, P=0.001] and ICU stay [3 (2, 3) days vs. 2 (2, 3) days, P<0.001] compared to the non-COVID-19 group. Additionally, troponin I [4.76 (2.55, 7.93) ng/mL vs. 2.66 (1.19, 5.65) ng/mL, P=0.001] and brain natriuretic peptide [608.50 (249.75, 1 150.00) pg/mL vs. 192.00 (100.93, 314.75) pg/mL, P<0.001] levels were significantly higher in the COVID-19 group. Conclusion For patients with single valve disease undergoing elective surgery, short-term outcomes after recovery from COVID-19 infection are favorable, with no significant increase in in-hospital mortality or postoperative complication rates.

Based on the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)/mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) signaling pathway-mediated cell proliferation, this study explores the effect of cisplatin combined with Guiqi Yiyuan Ointment on Lewis lung cancer-bearing mice. A total of 60 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a blank group with 10 mice and a modeling group with 50 mice. After modeling, they were randomly divided into the model group, cisplatin group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose groups of cisplatin combined with Guiqi Yiyuan Ointment, with 10 mice in each group. After 14 days of medication, the general condition of the mice was observed; body weight was measured, and organ index and tumor inhibition rate were calculated. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe the pathological morphology changes in tumor tissue. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the positive rate of Ki-67 antigen(Ki-67) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) in tumor tissue. Western blot and real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR) were used to detect the expression of related proteins and mRNA in tumor tissue. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle of tumor cells in tumor tissue. The results showed that compared with that in the blank group, the general condition of mice in the model group deteriorated; the body weight, as well as thymus and spleen index of mice in the model group decreased after 14 days of medication. Compared with that in the model group, the general condition of mice in the cisplatin group deteriorated, while the condition of mice in the combined groups improved; the body weight, as well as thymus and spleen index of mice in the cisplatin group decreased, while the three indicators in the combined groups increased; the tumor weight of each medication group decreased, and the tumor inhibition rate increased; there were varying degrees of necrosis in tumor cells of each medication group, and the tightness of tumor cells, the increase in the number of cell nuclei and chromatin, and mitosis all decreased. The positive rate of Ki-67 and PCNA, as well as the protein expression and ratio of p-EGFR/EGFR, rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(Ras), phosphorylated Raf-1 protein kinase(p-Raf-1)/Raf-1, phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase(p-MEK)/MEK, phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase(p-ERK)/ERK and the mRNA expression of EGFR, Ras, Raf-1, MEK, and ERK all decreased. The proportion of tumor cells in the G_0/G_1 phase of each medication group increased, and that in the S phase decreased. In addition, there was no significant difference in the G_2/M phase. Compared with that of the cisplatin group, the tumor weight of the combined groups decreased, and the tumor inhibition rate increased. The necrosis and mitosis of tumor cells in the combined groups were more pronounced; the positive rate of Ki-67 and PCNA, the protein expression and ratio of p-EGFR/EGFR, Ras, p-Raf-1/Raf-1, p-MEK/MEK, and p-ERK/ERK, as well as the mRNA expression of EGFR, Ras, Raf-1, MEK, and ERK in the combined groups all decreased. The proportion of tumor cells in the G_0/G_1 phase of the combined medium-and high-dose groups increased, and that in the S phase decreased. There was no significant difference in the proportion of tumor cells of the combined groups in the G_2/M phase. This indicates that the combination of cisplatin and Guiqi Yiyuan Ointment can enhance the anti-tumor effect of cisplatin on tumor-bearing mice, and the mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of the EGFR/MAPK pathway, which accelerates the arrest of tumor cells in the G_0/G_1 phase, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells. At the same time, the study also indicates that Guiqi Yiyuan Ointment may reduce the damage of tumors to mice and the toxic side effects brought by cisplatin chemotherapy.

Salvia miltiorrhiza is a perennial herb of the genus Salvia(Lamiaceae). As one of the earliest medicinal plants to undergo molecular biology research, it has gradually become a model plant for molecular biology of medicinal plants. With the gradual analysis of the genome of S. miltiorrhiza and the biosynthetic pathways of its main active components tanshinone and salvianolic acids, the transcriptional regulation mediated by transcription factors and related regulatory proteins has gradually become a new research focus. Due to the lack of scientific and unified naming of transcription factors and different research indexes in different literature, this paper systematically sorted out the transcription factors in different literature with the genomes of DSS3 from selfing for three generations and bh2-7 from selfing for six generations as reference. In total, 73 transcription factors and related regulatory proteins belonging to 13 gene families were identified. The effects of overexpression or gene silencing experiments on tanshinone and salvianolic acids were also analyzed. This study unified the identified transcription factors, which laid a foundation for further constructing the regulatory networks of secondary metabolites and insect or stress resistance and improving the quality of medicinal materials by using global transcriptional regulation engineering.

Buyang Huanwu Decoction(BYHWD), as one of the classic formulas in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) for the treatment of cerebral ischemic stroke(CIS), has demonstrated definite effects in clinical practice. However, the material basis and mechanism of treatment have not been systematically elucidated. This study employed network pharmacology and molecular docking to analyze the potential targets and mechanisms of blood-and brain-penetrating active components of BYHWD in reducing cell apoptosis in CIS. Cell experiments were then carried out to validate the prediction results. In the experiments, five active components including hydroxysafflor yellow A( HSYA), tetramethylpyrazine( TMP), astragaloside Ⅳ( AS-Ⅳ), amygdalin( AMY), and paeoniflorin(PF) were selected to explore the pharmacological effects of BYHWD. HT22 cells were treated with BYHWD, and the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) method was employed to examine the toxic and side effects of BYHWD. A cell model of oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation( OGD/R) was constructed, with apoptosis and pyroptosis as the main screening indicators. The levels of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) and glutathione(GSH) were measured to assess the cell membrane integrity. Flow cytometry was employed to detect apoptosis, and the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-1 were measured to clarify the status of apoptosis and pyroptosis. ELISA was employed to determine the levels of interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-18 to confirm pyroptosis. HSYA and AMY were identified in this study as the active components regulating apoptosis and pyroptosis. TUNEL was employed to detect the apoptosis rate, and Western blot was employed to determine the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), and caspase-3, which confirmed that the anti-apoptotic effect of the combined component group was superior to that of the single component groups. The molecular docking results revealed strong binding affinity of HSYA and AMY with SDF-1α and CXCR4.AMD3100, a selective antagonist of CXCR4, was then used for intervention. The results of Western blot showed alterations in the expression levels of apoptosis-associated proteins, SDF-1α, and CXCR4. In conclusion, HSYA and AMY influence cellular apoptosis by modulating the SDF-1α/CXCR4 signaling cascade.
