The changes of expression and function of MDM2 and P53 by MDM2 specific antisense oligonucleotides were investigated in HL60 cells. Cells were divided into control group, AS group (MDM2 specific antisense oligonucleotides group), cisplatin group, and combined treatment group. FCM analysis and Western blot and RT-PCR were used to estimate apoptosis and the expression of MDM2 and P53. Our results showed that the transfection of MDM2 specific antisense oligonucleotides obviously inhibited MDM2 expression (P < 0.01) and increased the expression of P53 (P < 0.05). Apoptosis rate were reduced by MDM2 specific antisense oligonucletides and cisplatin (P < 0.01). It is concluded that MDM2 specific antisense oligonucletides can inhibit the expression of MDM2, induce the expression of P53 and increase the apoptosis of leukemia cells after chemotherapy.

Objective To study the value of intensive care nursing scoring system(ICNSS) on care resource allocation in intensive care unit(ICU). Methods 108 ICU patients were divided into the observation group (55 cases) and the control group (53 cases) randomly. In the observation group,the ICNSS scale was applied to evaluate nursing workload, and care resource was allocated according to intensive care nursing scoring. In the control group, care resource was allocated according to dynamic monitoring of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ ) scoring. The ICU monitoring time,medical cost,incidence of complications during the hospitalization,satisfaction of the nurses and the patients or their relatives were compared between two groups. Results The ICU monitoring time,medical cost and incidenceof complications during the hospitalization in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group, while the satisfaction of the nurses and the patients or their relatives in the observation group was markedly better than that in the control group. Conclusions Care resource allocation according to ICNSS is worthy of promotion and application in ICU because it can more significantly improve nursing quality,satisfaction of nurses and patients or their relatives than care resource allocation according to APACHE Ⅱ scoring.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of liraglutide on diabetic rats. Methods 24 healthy male SPF Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats with random blood glucose greater than 11.1 mmol/L were selected as the experimental group, and randomly divided into diabetes mellitus group ( n=12) and liraglutide group (n=12). Ten healthy male SPF Wistar rats with the same age and weight as GK rats were selected as normal control group. After adaptively feeded for 2 weeks, the liraglutide group was given liraglutide (400 μg·kg-1·d-1, subcutaneous injection), while the control group and diabetes mellitus group were given the same volume of saline, and continued to be administered for 8 weeks. After 10 weeks, data and biochemical indicators were recorded. Effects of liraglutide on learning and memory in diabetes mellitus rats were detected by Morris water maze test. HE staining observed the hippocampal neurons morphology. Western blotting method detected the expression of p- IκB kinase (IKK) β, p-NF-κB, NF-κB, Klotho, and PRX2 in hippocampus. Results Morris water maze test showed that liraglutide can improve the spatial learning and memory ability of diabetes mellitus rats. HE staining showed that liraglutide significantly reduced the pathological damage of hippocampal neurons of diabetes mellitus rats. Western blotting showed that liraglutide inhibited NF-κB signaling pathway in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus rats. The expression of Klotho protein in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus group was significantly lower than that of control group, while the expression of PRX2 protein was higher than control group (t=8.298,-7.398,all P<0.01). The expression of Klotho and PRX2 protein in hippocampus of liraglutide group were higher than diabetes mellitus group (t=-13.059, 14.113, all P<0.01). The expression of Klotho protein of liraglutide group was similar to that of control group ( t = -1. 137, P>0. 05 ). The expression of PRX2 protein was significantly higher than control group (t=-28.055, P<0.01). Conclusions Liraglutide may enhance the expression of antioxidant stress protein including Klotho and PRX2, by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus rats, reduced oxidative stress and improved the injury of hippocampal neuronal in diabetes mellitus rats, which seems to play a neuroprotective effect, to prevent and delay the occurrence of diabetic encephalopathy.

Light adaptation enables the vertebrate visual system to operate over a wide range of ambient illumination. Regulation of phototransduction in photoreceptors is considered a major mechanism underlying light adaptation. However, various types of neurons and glial cells exist in the retina, and whether and how all retinal cells interact to adapt to light/dark conditions at the cellular and molecular levels requires systematic investigation. Therefore, we utilized single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect retinal cell-type-specific transcriptomes during light/dark adaptation in mice. The results demonstrated that, in addition to photoreceptors, other retinal cell types also showed dynamic molecular changes and specifically enriched signaling pathways under light/dark adaptation. Importantly, Müller glial cells (MGs) were identified as hub cells for intercellular interactions, displaying complex cell‒cell communication with other retinal cells. Furthermore, light increased the transcription of the deiodinase Dio2 in MGs, which converted thyroxine (T4) to active triiodothyronine (T3). Subsequently, light increased T3 levels and regulated mitochondrial respiration in retinal cells in response to light conditions. As cones specifically express the thyroid hormone receptor Thrb, they responded to the increase in T3 by adjusting light responsiveness. Loss of the expression of Dio2 specifically in MGs decreased the light responsive ability of cones. These results suggest that retinal cells display global transcriptional changes under light/dark adaptation and that MGs coordinate intercellular communication during light/dark adaptation via thyroid hormone signaling.
