BackgroundSocial support can help alleviate depressive symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder （MDD） and improve individual levels of empathy. The higher the level of empathy， the lower the probability of depressive symptoms. At present， the relationship between social support， empathy and depressive symptoms in MDD patients is unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the pathway of empathy in the relationship between social support and depressive symptoms in patients with MDD， so as to provide references for clinical treatment of MDD patients. MethodsA total of 126 patients who visited the outpatient clinic of Tianjin Anding hospital from July 2020 to September 2022 and met the diagnostic criteria for Major Depressive Disorder （MDD） according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5） were selected as the study subjects. Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item （HAMD-17）， Interpersonal Reactivity Index （IRI） and Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS） were used for assessment. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlations among the scale scores. Path analysis was performed using Model 4 of the Process 3.4.1. Bootstrap method was used to test the path effects. ResultsAmong MDD patients， HAMD-17 total score was positively correlated with IRI total score and its subscales of fantasy and personal distress （r=0.225， 0.213， 0.220， P<0.05）. HAMD-17 total score was negatively correlated with SSRS total score and its subscales of subjective support and support utilization （r=-0.211， -0.181， -0.208， P<0.05）. The score of support utilization subscale of SSRS was positively correlated with IRI total score and its subscale of perspective taking and empathic concern （r=0.257， 0.261， 0.331， P<0.01）. Empathy served as a pathway between support utilization and depressive symptoms， with an indirect effect of 0.217 （95% CI： 0.060~0.426）， and the effect size was 36.90%. ConclusionEmpathy may serve as a pathway between support utilization and depressive symptoms in patients with MDD.

Objective:To investigate the impact of daily step count on glycemic outcomes in community residents with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).Methods:This was a prospective cohort study, in October 2018, 204 residents who met the criteria of IGT were recruited in the Shijingshan District in Beijing. The subjects were tested for fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance test 2-hour blood glucose (2hBG), glycated hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c), lipid profile, liver and kidney function, as well as measurements of height, weight and waist circumference. A dedicated mobile application was used to deliver prediabetes health knowledge monthly. Online guidance was provided to answer questions and daily step count was collected using the application. Three years later, a follow-up was conducted to assess the participants′ glycemic outcomes and other indexes, and a total of 142 participants completed the follow-up review. According to daily step count, the subjects were categorized into high step count group (42 cases,>7 000 steps daily), moderate step count group (54 cases, 5 000-7 000 steps daily), and low step count group (46 cases,<5 000 steps daily). Subjects were categorized into diabetes group (30 cases), prediabetes group (77 cases) and normal glucose tolerance group (35 cases) with glycemic outcomes. Independent sample t test was used to compare the differences in blood glucose, blood lipids, and step counts between the two groups. Kruskal-Wallis H test or one-way ANOVA was used to compare the differences in blood glucose, blood lipids, and step counts between multiple groups. The χ2 test was used to compare the differences in glycemic outcomes between multiple groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the impact of daily step counts and body mass index on glycemic outcomes. Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between daily step counts and 2 h BG. Results:A total of 142 participants completed the 3-year follow-up, including 43 males and 99 females, with a mean age of (60.15±5.67) years. At baseline, males had significantly higher body mass index, waist circumference, and fasting blood glucose when compared to those in females [(26.97±2.43) vs (24.89±2.93) kg/m 2, (92.68±7.75) vs (83.83±8.60) cm, (5.83±0.61) vs (5.62±0.52) mmol/L], the total cholesterol and HDL-C were also significantly lower in males than those in females [(5.10±1.16) vs (5.55±0.95) mmol/L, (1.35±0.34) vs (1.56±0.35) mmol/L] (all P<0.05). After 3-year follow-up, 21.1% (30/142) of IGT participants progressed to diabetes, with an annual conversion rate of approximately 7%. The normal glucose tolerance group showed significantly higher daily step counts when compared with the prediabetes and diabetes groups [(7 886±2 867) vs (5 981±2 655) vs (4 117±2 674) steps] ( H=31.778, P<0.001). Individuals with higher daily step counts exhibited lower body mass index, 2 h BG, and HbA 1c level when compared with those in the ones with moderate and low step counts [(24.26±3.09) vs (25.44±3.38) vs (26.26±3.59) kg/m 2, (7.50±1.71) vs (9.15±3.30) vs (11.19±3.84) mmol/L, 5.97%±0.46% vs 6.14%±0.99% vs 6.40%±0.96%] (all P<0.05). Higher step count was positively correlated with the reversal of prediabetes to normal blood glucose levels (moderate step count, OR=0.297, 95% CI: 0.109-0.804; low step count, OR=0.055, 95% CI: 0.010-0.287), lower daily step count correlated positively with prediabetes progressing to diabetes ( OR=4.857, 95% CI: 1.140-20.689) (all P<0.05). For every additional 1 000 steps per day, the 2 h BG decreased by 0.5 mmol/L. Conclusion:As daily step count increases, the glucose metabolism improves in IGT community residents. Higher daily step count is associated with reversal of IGT to normal glucose tolerance, while lower daily step count may be associated with the progression of IGT to diabetes.

ATP is an important cofactor involved in many biocatalytic reactions that require energy input. Polyphosphate kinases (PPK) can provide energy for ATP-consuming reactions due to their cheap and readily available substrate polyphosphate. We selected ChPPK from Cytophaga hutchinsonii for substrate profiling and tolerance analysis. By molecular docking and site-directed mutagenesis, we rationally engineered the dual-substrate channel cavity of polyphosphate kinase to improve the catalytic activity of PPK. Compared with the wild type, the relative enzyme activity of the screened mutant ChPPK_K81H-K103V increased by 326.7%. Meanwhile, the double mutation expanded the substrate utilization range and tolerance of ChPPK, and improved its heat and alkali resistance. Subsequently, we coupled the glutathione bifunctional enzyme GshAB and ChPPK_K81H-K103V based on this ATP regeneration system, and glutathione was produced by cell-free catalysis upon disruption of cells. This system produced (25.4±1.9) mmol/L glutathione in 6 h upon addition of 5 mmol/L ATP. Compared with the system before mutation, glutathione production was increased by 41.9%. After optimizing the buffer, bacterial mass and feeding time of this system, (45.2±1.8) mmol/L glutathione was produced in 6 h and the conversion rate of the substrate l-cysteine was 90.4%. Increasing the ability of ChPPK enzyme to produce ATP can effectively enhance the conversion rate of substrate and reduce the catalytic cost, achieving high yield, high conversion rate and high economic value for glutathione production by cell-free catalysis. This study provides a green and efficient ATP regeneration system that may further power the ATP-consuming biocatalytic reaction platform.

Objective:To systematically review the risk prediction models for hypoglycemia in diabetic patients.Methods:The literatures published up to March 25, 2022 was retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, MEDLINE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, VIP and SinoMed. Two researchers independently screened the literatures, extracted information, and applied the PROBAST tool to evaluate the quality of the included models.Results:A total of 11 literatures and 13 models were included. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve or C statistic of all models was 0.666-0.890, with a high risk of bias and a low risk of applicability, and the most included predictors were chronic kidney disease and age. The main reason for the bias in the model were insufficient number of events in the dependent variable, improper handling of continuous variables, and screening of predictors by single factor analysis. Conclusions:The existing hypoglycemia risk prediction models for diabetic patients are still in the development stage, and medical and nursing staff can choose the existing hypoglycemia models according to the results of this systematic review and clinical practice. In the future, we should improve the existing models based on tools or carry out large-sample, multi-center, prospective cohort studies, and build a high-quality hypoglycemia risk prediction model for diabetic patients that is more suitable for China based on more comprehensive and accurate statistical methods and clinical data.

Objective:To explore the effects of hnRNP E1 on the expression of early genes E2, E6 of HPV16 and the biological function in cervical cancer SiHa cell lines.Methods:The cell experiments in vitro were carried out in cervical cancer cell lines SiHa. The expression levels of E2, E6 mRNA and protein of HPV16 were detected by Real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively, before and after up-regulating hnRNP E1. Meanwhile, the cell proliferation, cycle and apoptosis were evaluated by CCK-8 and flow cytometry. Data analyses were performed using SPSS 22.0 and Graphpad Prism 7.0 software. Results:Compared with the blank and the blank plasmid group, the cells activity and proliferation decreased at 24, 48 and 72 h after up-regulating hnRNP E1 ( P<0.05), while the percentage of cells in G0/G1 phase increased and the percentage in S and G2/M phase and proliferation index decreased ( P<0.05). Moreover, the late apoptotic rate and the total apoptotic rate increased ( P<0.05). The expression levels of E6 mRNA and protein of HPV16 in hnRNP E1 up-regulated group were significantly lower than that in both blank group and blank plasmid group, the differences were significant ( P<0.05), showing the tendency of cells proliferation index decrease and total apoptotic rate increase with decreased HPV16 E6 expression. There were no significant differences in the expression of E2 mRNA of HPV16 among the three groups ( P=0.427), and no E2 protein of HPV16 was detected. Conclusions:hnRNP E1 could inhibit the transcription and translation of E6 oncogene of HPV16 and further inhibit the proliferation and promote apoptosis of cervical cancer cells, suggesting that hnRNP E1 might be a potential target marker to prevent cervical lesions. But no association between hnRNP E1 and HPV16 E2 was found in SiHa cells.

A chemical investigation on

Objective: To investigate the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 early genes E2 and E6 and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) E2 and their interaction effects in the progression of the cervical cancer. Methods: Women with normal cervix (NC), low cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN Ⅰ) and high cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ) from the cervical lesions cohort in Jiexiu County of Shanxi Province from June 2014 to September 2014, and patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) treated at the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University in the same period were enrolled in this study. There were 257 participants, about 67 NC cases (26.07%), 69 CIN Ⅰ cases (26.85%), 68 CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ cases (26.46%), and 53 SCC cases (20.62%), respectively. The information of demographic characteristics, life health habits and cervical lesions were collected by using the structured questionnaire. Cervical exfoliated cells and cervical biopsy tissues were collected to detect the infection of HPV16 and the protein expression levels of hnRNP E2, HPV16 E2 and E6. According to the median-value of the protein expression levels of hnRNP E2, HPV16 E2 and E6 and E2/E6 ratio in the NC group, the study participants were divided into the high and low expression groups/ratio groups. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between HPV16 early gene E2 and E6, hnRNP E2 and cervical cancer. The interaction effect was analyzed by using the generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) model. Results: The ages of NC, CIN Ⅰ, CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ and SCC groups were (47.00±9.07), (47.64±7.35), (46.37±8.67) and (51.26±8.03) years old, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that the HPV16 E2 low expression, E6 high expression and E2/E6 low ratio could increase the risk of CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ, about OR (95%CI) values 11.11 (1.63-75.56), 8.00 (1.28-50.04), and 9.75 (1.22-77.72), respectively and SCC, about OR (95%CI) values 14.22 (2.11-95.88), 10.33 (1.67-64.00), and 12.38 (1.56-97.91), respectively. The hnRNP E2 low expression could increase the risk of CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ and SCC, about OR (95%CI) values 3.35 (1.39-8.10) and 5.53 (1.54-19.88). The result of GMDR showed that there were interaction effects of the hnRNP E2 low expression, HPV16 E2 low expression and HPV16 E6 high expression in both CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ and SCC groups. Conclusion The HPV16 E2 low expression, HPV16 E6 high expression and hnRNP E2 low expression could increase the risk of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer, and they might have an important interaction effect in the progression of the cervical cancer.
