Computer tomography scanning was performed in 16 patients with mandibular angle hypertrophy before and after surgery. The imaging data of patients were recorded in three-dimensional reconstruction software (Mimics 10.0), and found the most appropriate surgery plan through simulating different surgical procedures. The geometry character indexes of the face were compared between before and after surgery, and then the results were analyzed. We got intuitive, accurate three-dimensional reconstruction graphs, simulation of surgery procedures, and calculation of difference in the geometry character index of face in all cases. The bone width of mandibular angle shortened (7.69?.89) mm; the soft tissue width of mandibular angle shortened (5.13?.19) mm; the both gonial angle increased (5.68?.43)?and (5.91?.66)? respectively. Applied to actual surgery procedure,the operation time shortened and precision of operation was improved. Results demonstrated that Computer three-dimensional reconstruction and computer simulation techniques is beneficial to reveal the variational regularity of bone and soft tissue, which is a good aided method in stimulation of surgery and choice of surgery plan.

BACKGROUND:Quercetin plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,but less research has been done on its mechanism of promoting the migration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of quercetin on the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells through in vitro experiments,and to explore the regulatory role of CCR1 and CXCR4. METHODS:Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were selected as experimental subjects.CCK8 assay was used to detect the effect of quercetin on the proliferative activity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Cell scratch assay and Transwell assay were used to detect the in vitro invasive and migratory abilities of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells after quercetin treatment,respectively.The role of quercetin in relation to CCR1 and CXCR4 was demonstrated with the help of molecular docking technology.Western blot assay and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR were used to detect the migration-related chemokine expression after quercetin treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)5 and 10 μmol/L quercetin could significantly promote the proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,and the drug concentration of 10 μmol/L resulted in the highest cell proliferation efficiency.(2)To better explore the dose-effect relationship of quercetin affecting the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,5 and 10 μmol/L quercetin were selected for the subsequent experiments,and ligustrazine was used as the positive control drug,and the experiments were divided into blank control group,5 μmol/L quercetin group,10 μmol/L quercetin group,and 100 μmol/L ligustrazine group.(3)In vitro migration and invasion ability of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were elevated in a concentration-dependent manner after quercetin treatment,and the migration effect of 10 μmol/L quercetin group was better than that of ligustrazine group.(4)The molecular docking results suggested that there was a strong interaction between quercetin and CCR1 and CXCR4.(5)Quercetin could up-regulate the expression of CCR1 and CXCR4 proteins and mRNA.(6)This study confirmed at the cellular level that quercetin could promote the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by targeting CCR1 and CXCR4.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of quercetin on the cardiac and renal functions of rats with cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) based on the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/nuclear factor kappa- B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. METHODS CRS model of SD rats was induced by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation combined with acute renal ischemia-reperfusion. Model rats were randomly separated into model group, quercetin low-dose group (35 mg/kg), quercetin high-dose group (70 mg/kg), high-dose of quercetin+740Y-P group (70 mg/kg quercetin+3.5 mg/kg PI3K/Akt/ NF-κB signaling pathway activator 740Y-P), with 12 rats in each group. Another 12 normal rats were selected as sham operation group. They were given relevant drugs, once a day, for 14 consecutive days. After administration, the cardiac function indexes [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), end-diastolic volume (EDV), isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT)] and renal function indicators [blood urea nitrogen (BUN), 24-hour urine protein, and serum creatinine (Scr)] were detected, and fibrosis in the cardiac and renal tissues was observed; the levels of inflammatory indexes [interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] in the serum and cardiac and renal tissues as well as the expression of PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway-related proteins in the cardiac and renal tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with sham operation group, the levels of BUN, 24-hour urine protein and Scr, collagen volume fraction of cardiac and renal tissues, the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in serum and cardiac and renal tissues, and the phosphorylation of PI3K, Akt and NF-κB p65 protein in cardiac and renal tissues were increased significantly in model group (P<0.05); the levels of LVEF, IVRT and EDV were reduced significantly (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the above indexes were reversed significantly in quercetin low-dose and high-dose groups (P<0.05), and the reversal effect was better in the high-dose group (P<0.05). 740Y-P restored the reverse effect of high-dose quercetin on the indexes (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Quercetin can alleviate cardiac and renal fibrosis and function injury, the mechanism of which may be 20232016) associated with inhibiting the activation of the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of cryptotanshinone (CTS) on heart and kidney function in rats with cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) by regulating phosphoinositide kinase-3 (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/ mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. METHODS CRS model of rats was induced by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation combined with acute renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Model rats were randomly divided into CRS model group (CRS group), low-dose CTS group (CTS-L), high-dose CTS group (CTS-H group), high-dose CTS+PI3K activator 740Y-P group (CTS-H+740Y-P group), with 12 rats in each group. Another 12 rats were selected as the normal control group (Normal group) and were carried out surgery without modeling. CTS-L group and CTS-H group were respectively given CTS 30 and 60 mg/kg intragastrically, once a day, for consecutive 14 d. Besides the intervention of CTS 60 mg/kg intragastrically, CTS-H+740Y-P group was given 10 mg/kg 740Y-P intraperitoneally, once a day, for 14 consecutive days. After the last medication, the levels of cardiac function [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular fraction shortening (LVFS)] and renal function [24 h urinary protein, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)] were detected in rats. The pathological changes and fibrosis of the heart and kidney in rats were observed; the expressions of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in heart and renal tissue were all detected. RESULTS Compared with Normal group, the levels of LVEF and LVFS in rats were all decreased significantly in CRS group (P<0.05); the levels of LVESD, LVEDD, 24 h urinary protein, serum levels of BUN, Scr and BNP, collagen area and the phosphorylation of PI3K, Akt and mTOR protein in heart and renal tissue were all increased significantly (P<0.05). The morphology of myocardial cells was enlarged and disordered; the structure ofrenal tubules was disordered, epithelial cells were wrinkled, and there was infiltration of inflammatory cells. Compared with CRS group, the above indexes of rats were reversed significantly in CTS-L group and CTS-H group (P<0.05); heart and kidney function had been restored, and pathological damage and fibrosis had been reduced. PI3K activator 740Y-P weakened the protective effect of CTS on cardiac and renal function in CRS rats. CONCLUSIONS CTS can protect heart and kidney function in CRS rats, the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To predict the probability of lymph node metastasis after thoracoscopic surgery in patients with lung adenocarcinoma based on nomogram. Methods We analyzed the clinical data of the patients with lung adenocarcinoma treated in the department of thoracic surgery of our hospital from June 2018 to May 2021. The patients were randomly divided into a training group and a validation group. The variables that may affect the lymph node metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma were screened out by univariate logistic regression, and then the clinical prediction model was constructed by multivariate logistic regression. The nomogram was used to show the model visually, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and clinical decision curve to evaluate the calibration degree and practicability of the model. Results Finally 249 patients were collected, including 117 males aged 53.15±13.95 years and 132 females aged 47.36±13.10 years. There were 180 patients in the training group, and 69 patients in the validation group. There was a significant correlation between the 6 clinicopathological characteristics and lymph node metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma in the univariate logistic regression. The area under the ROC curve in the training group was 0.863, suggesting the ability to distinguish lymph node metastasis, which was confirmed in the validation group (area under the ROC curve was 0.847). The nomogram and clinical decision curve also performed well in the follow-up analysis, which proved its potential clinical value. Conclusion This study provides a nomogram combined with clinicopathological characteristics, which can be used to predict the risk of lymph node metastasis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma with a diameter≤3 cm.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has emerged as an intractable cancer with scanty therapeutic regimens. The aberrant activation of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) are reported to be common in CCA patients. However, the underpinning mechanism remains poorly understood. Deubiquitinase (DUB) is regarded as a main orchestrator in maintaining protein homeostasis. Here, we identified Josephin domain-containing protein 2 (JOSD2) as an essential DUB of YAP/TAZ that sustained the protein level through cleavage of polyubiquitin chains in a deubiquitinase activity-dependent manner. The depletion of JOSD2 promoted YAP/TAZ proteasomal degradation and significantly impeded CCA proliferation
