Objective To investigate the effect of SP600125 on the proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis and invasion of human cervical cancer HeLa cells. Methods CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation of HeLa cells treated with different concentrations of SP600125 at different time points. The 20 μmol/L of SP600125 was determined for subsequent experiments. Cell proliferation ability was detected using plate clone formation assay; nuclear morphology was observed by DAPI staining; cell cycle and apoptosis were measured by flow cytometry; cell migration and invasion were detected by cell scratch and Transwell methods; the mRNA and protein levels of p53, Mad2L1 and CDC20 were measured by qRT-PCR and Western blot after SP600125 treatment at different time points. Results Compared with control group (0.1%DMSO), cells proliferative activity were reduced by 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 μmol/L SP600125 treatment for 24h. Compared with control group, the rate of apoptosis was significantly increased in SP600125 treatment groups, and the cell proportion in G2/M phase increased (

Objective:
To explore the relationship between lifestyle and myopia and depressive symptoms comorbidity among primary and secondary school students in Nanjing, so as to provide a scientific basis for developing effective prevention measures.
Methods:
In October 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select primary and secondary school students aged 9-19 years in 4 urban and 4 suburban districts in Nanjing as the research subjects. A total of 10 498 students were included for physical examination and questionnaire survey by using the student health condition and influencing factors questionnaire. Chisquare test was used for univariate analysis, and multifactor Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between students lifestyle and the cooccurrence of myopia and depressive symptoms.
Results:
The prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive myopia and depression among primary and secondary school students in Nanjing was 18.11%. The prevalence of comorbidity was higher in girls (20.97%) than in boys (15.47%), higher in boarding students (31.31%) than in nonboarding students (16.51%), and higher in high school students than in middle and primary school students (28.63%, 19.10%, 7.76%), with statistically significant differences (χ2=53.49, 149.31, 522.55, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that smoking (OR=1.51), drinking (OR=2.36), looking at electronic screens in dim conditions (OR=2.40), screen time ≥2 h/d(OR=1.50), afterschool homework time ≥2 h/d(OR=1.48) were positively correlated with the prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive myopia and depressive symptoms, healthy diet (OR=0.67), outdoor activities during breaks (OR=0.80), sufficient sleep (OR=0.64), meeting physical activity standards (OR=0.74) and outdoor activity time ≥2 h/d(OR=0.84) were negatively correlated with the prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive of myopia and depressive symptoms (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The lifestyle of primary and secondary school students in Nanjing is related to the comorbidity of myopia and depressive symptoms. Schools and families should carry out relevant education and intervention measures to promote students to develop good living habits and jointly prevent the occurrence of myopia and depressive symptoms.

AIM: To explore the pharmaceutical effects of tetrahydroxy stilbene glycoside (TSG) on acute liver injury induced by acetaminophen (APAP) using method of non-targeted metabonomics. METHODS: SPF C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the group of APAP-induced model and the group of TSG intervention groups (n=15). After intragastric administration of TSG for 7 days, the mice were injected once by APAP via intraperitoneal injection and the livers were taken 6 hours later. RESULTS: H&E staining, MDA and SOD tests showed that the injection of APAP could cause hepatic injury, but TSG could reduce the severity of liver injury. The results of metabolite detection showed that there were significant changes in ABC transporter, choline metabolism, central carbon metabolism, galactose and alanine amino acid metabolism in TSG groups compared with APAP model group. CONCLUSION: TSG protects against acute liver injury induced by APAP, mainly by improving lipid peroxidation and disorder of energy metabolism.

Objective To explore the biological mechanisms of electroacupuncture (EA) for depression. Methods Forty male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (n=8), model group (n=8), EA group (n=8) and fluoxetine group (n=8). Depressive models were established with lonely raising and chronic unpredictable mild stress. They were tested with Open-field Test, and the expression of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4)A and PDE4D in hippocampus was detected with RT-PCR. Results The cross and rear scores were significantly lower in the model group than in the control group (P<0.001), while it increased in the EA group and the fluoxetine group (P<0.001). Compared with the model group, the expression of PDE4A and PDE4D decreased in the EA group (P<0.001). Conclusion Electroacupuncture may relieve depression through inhibiting the expression of PDE4A and PDE4D.
