OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of aquaporin 5 (AQP5) on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)/nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in Sjögren syndrome (SS) rats. METHODS: The SS gene expression data sets GSE406611 and GSE84844 were extracted from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and the AQP5 mRNA expression was analyzed by R software. The rat SS model was constructed. The successfully modeled rats were divided into SS group, SS+NC group, and SS+pc group, 10 rats in each group; and 10 rats were set as Normal group. The rats in the SS+NC group were injected with 10 μg of rno-pcDNA3.1-AQP5-NC at the submandibular gland, subcutaneously every day for 28 days. The rats in the SS+pc group were injected with 10 μg of rno-pcDNA3.1-AQP5 at the submandibular gland, subcutaneously every day for 28 days. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to detect the content of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the serum. High-throughput sequencing was used to identify the target genes. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of AQP5, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in the rat submandibular gland tissue. RESULTS: In the SS dataset GSE406611 and GSE84844, the mRNA expression of AQP5 in SS was significantly reduced. Compared with the Normal group, the content of TNF-α and IL-1β in the serum, the mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in the SS group were significantly increased, the mRNA and protein expressions of AQP5 were significantly decreased. After overexpression of AQP5, the content of TNF-α and IL-1β in the serum, the mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in the SS+pc group were significantly decreased, the mRNA and protein expressions of AQP5 were significantly increased. The differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The expression of AQP5 is involved in the progression of SS. Increasing the expression of AQP5 can significantly inhibit inflammatory stress and reduce the pathological damage of submandibular gland tissue. This may be related to the inhibition of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB conduction.

Objective:To study the risk factors of venous thromboembolism(VTE)and the predictive value of the improved VTE score model to identify the risk of VTE in gynecological surgery patients.Methods:From Janu-ary 1,2020 to December 31,2022,41 patients with VTE after gynecological surgery were selected as the VTE group,and a total of 164 patients with adjacent gynecological surgeries during the same period were selected as the non-VTE group with a ratio of 1 :4.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to ana-lyze the risk factors of VTE after gynecological surgery,and a modified VTE risk factor rapid assessment model(referred to as the improved VTE score model)was constructed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to study the predictive value for VTE for in gynecological surgery,and compared with the Caprini score model(Caprini table for short).Results:①Multivatiate Logistic regression analysis showed that there were independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery(OR＞1,P＜0.05),including age≥60 years,BMI≥28 kg/m2,malignant tumors,surgery time＞3 hours,history of thrombosis,and the increased D-di-mer difference before and after surgery.②The Area under Curve(AUC)of ROC was 0.963 in the improved VTE score model with a Youden index 81.10％,sensitivity 87.80％and specificity 93.29％.The AUC of the Caprini score model was 0.888 with Youden index 63.41％,sensitivity 73.17％and specificity 90.24％.The improved VTE score model the Caprini score model identified 92.68％and 85.37％of VTE patients as high-risk or ex-tremely high-risk,respectively,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:More attention should be paid to the six independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery.The two score models showed a similar identified level.However,the improved VTE score model is more simple and easier to operate,has better practicality,and has certain clinical promotion value.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the effect of increasing efficacy and decreasing toxicity of Limax extract （LE）on cyclophosphamide（CTX）in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS ：The mice were randomly divided into normal group，model group ，CTX group （0.02 g/kg），LE low-dose ，medium-dose and high-dose groups （LEL，LEM，LEH group ，0.6，1.2，2.4 g/kg），CTX+LE low-dose ，medium-dose and high-dose combination groups （CTX+LEL，CTX+LEM，CTX+ LEH group ，the same dose as single drug group ），with 10 huangrenbin518@163.com mice in each group. Except for normal group ，other groups were inoculated with hepatoma cells H 22 in the left ar mpit to establish tumor bearing models. After 24 h of inoculation ，normal group and model group were intragastrically given normal saline ， and administration groups were intragastrically given corresponding drugs ，once a day ，for 10 days. On the second day after the last administration ，the general conditions of mice in each group were observed ；the body mass ，thymus index （LI），spleen index （SI）were measured ；the tumor inhibition rate was detected. The effect （q）of combination therapy was evaluated by King ’s formula . The counts of WBC ，RBC and PLT ，serum contents of ALT ，ALT，Scr and BUN were detected in model group ，CTX group and combination groups ，and the contents of MDA，SOD and GSH ，the levels of VEGF ，TNF-α and IL-6 in the tumor tissue were detected by colorimetry and ELISA in above groups. The protein expression of oncogenes （p53，Bcl-2 and Bax ）were detected by immunohistochemical method in model group，CTX group and CTX+LEM group. RESULTS ：The mice in the model group were in poor spirit and had symptoms of excessive drinking and eating ；although the body weight ，TI and SI were not significantly abnormal compared with normal group （P＞0.05），WBC count and AST content were significantly increased ，ALT and BUN contents were significantly decreased （P＜ 0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with model group ，above symptoms of mice were all improved in administration groups. The tumor weight of administration groups ，TI and SI of CTX group and TI of combination groups were decreased significantly ，but tumor weight of LEL group and LEH group ，TI and SI of LE single groups and combination groups were significantly higher than CTX group；tumor weight of combination groups were significantly lower than CTX group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The tumor inhibition rates of administration groups were 29.58％-72.08％. The q values of CTX+LEL group ，CTX+LEM group and CTX+LEH group were 1.03，0.97 and 0.86，respectively. Compared with model group ，WBC count ，AST and BUN contents of CTX group ，MDA contents of combination groups ，VEGF，TNF-α and IL-6 levels of administration groups ，the protein expression of Bcl- 2 in CTX group and CTX+LEM group were decreased significantly ；the activities of SOD and GSH of administration groups ，the protein expression of p 53 in CTX+LEM group and Bax in CTX group ，CTX+LEM group were increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜ 0.01）；WBC counts and AST contents of administration groups ，ALT content of CTX+LEM group ，SOD activity of CTX+LEH group and GSH activity of CTX+LEM group were all significantly higher than those of CTX group ；MDA content of CTX+LEH group，VEGF and TNF-α levels of CTX+LEM group and CTX+LEH group，IL-6 levels of administration groups were all significantly lower than CTX group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：LE combined with CTX can increase the anti-tumor effect，and LE can reduce the toxicity of CTX induced immunosuppression and bone marrow suppression in mice ，with effect of increasing efficacy and decreasing toxicity. The effect may be related to antioxidant stress ，inhibition of angiogenesis and secretion of inflammatory factors ，and regulation of apoptosis protein expression.
