AIM: To study the expression and the role of neurokinin-1 receptor(NK-1R) and neurokinin-2 receptor (NK-2R) in distal ileum during acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP).METHODS: 130 adult Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups: the rats in ANP group( n=80 ) were induced by the retrograde intraductal infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate. The rats in sham operation control group ( n=50 ) received laparotomy only. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to determine the mRNA expression of NK-1R and NK-2R, Western blot was used to investigate expression level of NK-1R.RESULTS: NK-1R and NK-2R mRNA levels were enhanced in the distal ileum of ANP rats compared with controls. Western blot revealed stronger NK-1R immunoreactivity exited in intestinal mucosa in ANP rats. The overexpression of NK-1R was associated with mucosal pathological score( r=0.77,P

Objective To investigate the effects of cryptotanshinone and tanshinone Ⅱ A,two major monomer components of tanshinone,on the proliferation,differentiation and lipid synthesis of rat meibomian gland epithelial cells in vitro.Methods The eyelid meibomian gland tissue was isolated from 2-month-old SD rats and co-cultured with 3T3 trophoblasts for 5 days.Cryptotanshinone and tanshinone Ⅱ A were prepared with DMSO into different concentrations.The cells were grouped to 0.125 μmol/L,0.250 μmol/L,0.500 μmol/L,1.250 μmol/L and 2.500 μmol/L drug groups and treated for 48 hours,respectively.Only dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was added in medium in the DMSO control group.The expressions of keratin 14 (K14) and p63 in frozen sections of meibomian gland tissue and clones of meibomian gland cells were detected by immunofluorescence.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to assay the relative expression of K16,cell proliferation related antigen 67 (Ki67) and CCAAT enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPcα) in meibomian gland cell clones.Crystal violet staining and oil red staining were used to evaluate the colony formation rate and lipid synthesis of meibomian gland epithelial cells.Results Primary cultured meibomian gland cells were cloned on day 4-5 in vivo,and the cloning area was increased on day 7 after culture,p63 and K14 were positively expressed in clones.Compared with the DMSO control group,the relative expression levels of Ki67 mRNA were significantly elevated in the 0.500 μmol/L,1.250 μmol/L and 2.500 μmol/L cryptotanshinone groups (all at P ＜ 0.05).The relative expressions of Ki67 mRNA in the 0.500 μmol/L and 1.250 μmol/L tanshinone Ⅱ A groups were significantly higher than those in the DMSO control group (all at P＜0.05).No significant difference was found in the relative expression of K16 and C/EBPα mRNA among different concentrations of cryptotanshinone or tanshinone Ⅱ A group (all at P＞0.05).No lipid drop was found in the tarsal gland cell clones;however,the accumulation of lipid was seen in the cell clusters at the margin of the clones by oil red O staining.The average clone formation rate of tarsal gland cells in the 1.250 μ mol/L cryptotanshinone group was (2.55±0.20)％,which was significantly higher than (2.05±0.13)％ in the DMSO control group (t =4.379,P＜0.05).The average clone formation rate of tarsal gland cells in the 1.250 μmol/L tanshinone Ⅱ A group was (2.25±0.20)％,there was no significant difference between 1.250 μmol/L tanshinone Ⅱ A group and DMSO control group (t=1.616,P＞0.05).Conclusions Cryptotanshinone and tanshinone Ⅱ A promote the proliferation of meibomian gland epithelia cells,but play less impacts to lipid synthesis of meibomian gland epithelia cells in vitro.cryptotanshinone promote the clone tormation of meibomian gland epithelia cells.

Objective:To examine the expression of T-box5 (TBX5) in colorectal cancer tissues and its clinical significance, and explore the effects of TBX5 on the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer cells and its mechanism.Methods:The expressions of TBX5 in cancer and adjacent normal tissues were tested by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the relationship between TBX5 and clinicopathological features and prognosis of colorectal cancer was analyzed. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blot were used to detect the expressions of TBX5 in different colorectal cancer cell lines. TBX5 overexpression plasmid was constructed and transfected into human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29, and cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect the activities of transfection HT-29 cells. Cell scratch test and Transwell assay were used to detect the migration and invasion abilities of cells, while RT-qPCR and western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of PCNA, p21, p16, p27, MMP-2, MMP-7 and TIMP-1.Results:The positive rate of TBX5 protein in colorectal cancer tissues was 24.44% (22/90), significantly lower than 65.56% of adjacent normal tissues ( P<0.001). The expression of TBX5 was significantly related to lymph node metastasis, depth of invasion and nerve invasion ( P<0.05). The survival period of 22 patients with positive TBX5 expression was (60.2±2.4) months, better than (44.3±2.8) months of 68 patients with negative TBX5 expression ( P<0.05). Among human colon cancer cell lines of HT29, SW620, SW480, LOVO and HCT116, the expression of TBX5 in HT29 cells was the weakest. After transfection, the expression of TBX5 in transfection group was significantly higher than those in control group and blank group ( P=0.043 and P<0.001). Cell viability in transfection group was significantly lower than those in control group and blank group (both P<0.001). The ratio of cells in G 0/G 1 phase was increased ( P=0.009), while in G 2/M phase was decreased ( P<0.001). Cells′ abilities of migration and invasion in transfection group were also significantly decreased (both P<0.001). Overexpression of TBX5 downregulated the expressions of PCNA, MMP-2 and MMP-7, while upregulated the expressions of p21, p16, p27 ( P<0.05 for all). TBX5 had marginal effect on the expression of TIMP-1 ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Downregulation of TBX5 is a marker of poor prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer. TBX5 may inhibit the progression of colorectal cancer by inhibiting proliferation, invasion and metastasis related genes.

Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), Fibroscan, acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI), and aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio (APRI) and their combination for early stage liver cirrhosis. Methods: Three hundred and twenty-two hospitalized patients who had been diagnosed with chronic viral liver disease from March 2016 to April 2018 were included. According to the clinical diagnosis, patients were divided into chronic hepatitis and the early stage liver cirrhosis group (Child-Pugh A grade). All patients were examined by Fibroscan to detect liver stiffness measurement (LSM), ARFI to detect liver virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ) value, esophagogastroduodenoscopy and EUS to detect esophagogastric varices, laboratory and imaging examination. The index of EUS, Fibroscan, ARFI, and APRI was analyzed and the regression model was established by binary logistic regression, and the diagnostic efficacy of the above index and regression model for early stage of cirrhosis was evaluated by the area under a receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCs). Results: An early stage cirrhosis group had significantly higher detection rate with EUS (esophagogastric varices), Fibroscan (LSM), ARFI (VTQ) and APRI than chronic hepatitis group [76.7% vs. 10.7%, 10.4 (7.8, 17.3) vs. 6.1 (5.2, 8.4) kPa, 1.71(1.48, 2.07) m/s vs. 1.25(1.14, 1.43) m/s and 0.65 (0.38, 1.15) vs. 0.38(0.26, 0.62), respectively]. The corresponding chi-square test were 140.86, Z = -9.069, Z = -9.948 and Z = -5.764, respectively and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.01). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve and regression model were 0.830 (0.783 ~ 0.877), 0.793 (0.744 ~ 0.841), 0.821 (0.775 ~ 0.868), 0.686 (0.628 ~ 0.744) and 0.947 (0.925 ~ 0.969) for the diagnosis of early stage cirrhosis, respectively. Among them, the regression model of three indices (EUS, LSM and VTQ) had the largest AUROCs (0.947) and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 0.878 and 0.867, respectively. Conclusion The combination of EUS, LSM and ARFI had a superior diagnostic value for early stage liver cirrhosis, and may improve the diagnosis rate and reduce the misdiagnosis rate.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism of Huanglian Jiedutang （HLJDT） in treating mice with atherosclerosis （AS） by improving ferroptosis. MethodsA total of 10 SPF C57BL/6J mice were selected as a normal group， and 50 ApoE^-/- mice were randomly divided into five groups： model group， low-dose group of HLJDT， medium-dose group of HLJDT， high-dose group of HLJDT， and atorvastatin （ATV） group. ApoE^-/- mice were fed a high-fat diet for eight weeks to establish the AS model， and at the 9th week， they were given normal saline， low， medium， and high doses of HLJDT （3.9， 7.8， 15.6 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and atorvastatin calcium tablets （0.01 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， respectively， for a total of eight weeks. The formation of aortic plaque in mice was observed by gross oil red O staining and Masson staining. The levels of total cholesterol （TC）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， triglyceride （TG）， and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） in blood fat were measured by the automatic biochemical analyzer， and the mitochondrial structure of the aorta was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The content of serum superoxide dismutase （SOD） in serum was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The content of reduced glutathione （GSH） in serum was detected by the microplate method， and that of malondialdehyde （MDA） in serum was detected by the TBA method. The protein expression of nuclear factor E₂-associated factor 2 （Nrf2）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） signaling pathway was detected by Western blot. ResultsCompared with those of the normal group， the contents of TC， LDL-C， TG， HDL-C， and MDA in the serum and the aortic vascular plaque deposition of the model group were significantly increased （P<0.01）， while the expression levels of SOD and GSH in serum， as well as Nrf2， solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）， and GPX4 in aorta were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Mice in the model group appeared mitochondrial fragmentation and vacuolation in the aorta， volume atrophy， mitochondrial crista reduction， or a loose and disorganized form. Compared with those in the model group， the aortic vascular plaque deposition was significantly decreased in the low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose groups of HLJDT and ATV group， and the contents of serum TC， LDL-C， TG， and MDA in serum were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The contents of serum SOD and GSH and the expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 in the aorta were increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the symptoms of aortic mitochondrial vacuolation were alleviated. The number of cristae was increased， and they were ordered neatly. ConclusionHLJDT can reduce aortic vascular plaque deposition， decrease blood lipid and MDA expression， increase SOD and GSH expression， and ameliorate the pathological changes of ferroptosis， the mechanism of which is related to the Nrf2/GPX4 signaling pathway.
