Objective To investigate the protective effect of ischemia preconditioning(IPC)on apoptosis in-duced by renal ischemia - reperfusion(IR)and relations to the changing expressions of Bcl - 2,Bax in rat kidney. Methods Ischemia models were induced by clipping bilateral renal pedicles for 30 min by using the artery clamp;IPC group was induced by clipping bilateral renal pedicles for 15 min,4 days later IR was performed again by clipping bila-teral renal pedicle for 30 min. Rats were randomly divided into 5 groups with 5 animals in each group:control group(C group),sham - operation group(S group),IR group,IPC group(IPC ﹢ IR group),sham IPC group(S ﹢ IR group),all groups were randomly divided into 9 sub groups(0 h,3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,3 d,5 d,7 d)except C group according to the time points after reperfusion. Occurrence of apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynuleotidyl transferase media-ted dUTP nick end and labeling(TUNEL)method;the mRNA expression and protein levels of Bax and Bcl - 2 were de-tected by reverse transcriptase - polymerase chain reaction and quantitave immunohistochemisty. Results (1)Com-pared with S group and S ﹢ IR group,serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,kidney pathological damage scores in IR group gradually increased after IR,and peak point was 24 h after reperfusion;among all the subgroups there was a sig-nificant difference(all P ﹤ 0. 01). The expression of Bax,Bcl - 2 mRNA raised sharply in IR group after reperfusion, peaking at 6 h,24 h of reperfusion respectively,2. 66 ± 0. 12,2. 70 ± 0. 10,and among all the subgroups there was a sig-nificant difference(all P ﹤ 0. 01);the expression of Bax,Bcl - 2 protein had significant difference(all P ﹤ 0. 05). TUNEL immunofluorescence staining showed C group and S group had no obvious apoptosis cells in renal tubular epi-thelium;epithelial cell apoptosis after IR gradually increased in IR group,peaking at 24 h of reperfusion[(25. 07 ± 2. 29)% ].(2)Compared with IR group and S ﹢ IR group,pathological injury was significantly decreased in IPC ﹢ IR group;the expression of Bax,Bcl - 2 mRNA and protein,apoptosis cells were significantly decreased in IPC ﹢ IR group (all P ﹤ 0. 05). Conclusions Bax,Bcl - 2 are closely associated with kidney injury induced by IR. IPC may regulate acute kidney injuries by regulating Bax/ Bcl - 2.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of microRNA - 21(miR - 21)in acute kidney injury mice model at the different time points following ischemic/ reperfusion. Methods C57BL/ 6J mice were divided into 3 major groups:the control group(C group),sham operation group(S group)and ischemia - reperfusion group(IR group). Later 2 groups were divided into 9 sub - groups respectively according to the time following reperfu-sion. Automatic biochemical analyzer detected serum creatinine(Scr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN)level. HE staining detected renal pathological damage. Renal tubulointerstitial pathological score accessed pathological damage. Real time - PCR tested the expression of miR - 21 and mitogen - activated protein kinase kinase 3(MKK3)mRNA in renal respectively. Immunohistochemistry staining tested expression of MKK3. Results IR group's Scr,BUN levels gradually increased following reperfusion,24 h reached its peak,then gradually declined. The Scr,BUN level had statistically sig-nificant difference between IR group and S group at the same time subgroup from 3 h to 168 h following reperfusion(all P ﹤ 0. 01). The change of kidney damage and pathological changes of interstitial and tubular injury score consensus with renal function. miR - 21 increased gradually in renal ischemia after reperfusion,24 h peaked and then stabilized at this high level. miR - 21 was positively correlated with pathological tubulointerstitial injury from 0 h to 168 h after reperfu-sion(r = 0. 969,P ﹤ 0. 05). IR group's MKK3 mRNA and protein expression rose sharply following ischemia/ reperfu-sion,24 h peaked,and then gradually decreased. From 3 h to 168 h,the expression of MKK3 mRNA and proteins had significant difference at each same time points subgroups between IR group and S group(all P ﹤ 0. 01). Conclusions miR - 21 increases gradually in renal ischemia after reperfusion,24 h peaked and then stabilized at this high level. miR - 21 is positively correlated with pathological tubulointerstitial injury,which may be associated with the negative regulated relationship between miR - 21 and MKK3.

Methods:
A total of 10 specific pathogen free (SPF) grade female DBA/2J mice were randomly divided into model group and QGA II group (n = 5 for each group), while additional 5 SPF-grade female C57BL/6J mice were assigned to control group. Mice presented spontaneous high IOP and showed elevated approximately at the age of seven months. The high IOP was maintained until week 38, when gavage was initiated. Mice in control group underwent the same intragastric treatment, while those in QGA II group were gavaged with QGA II (9.67 g/kg), once a day for four weeks. Retinal morphology was examined using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, with the number of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) counted. The expression level of Brn3a protein, a specific marker for RGCs, was detected by immunofluorescence, with the mean optical density (OD) measured for quantitative analysis. In addition, 16S rDNA sequencing was leveraged to analyze changes in the diversity of gut microbiota, including their α-diversity (Chao1, Shannon, Pielou’s evenness, and observed species index) and β-diversity. Venn diagrams and linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) analysis was employed to investigate the number of amplicon sequence variants (ASVs), the abundance of differential gut microbiota species, and the classification of species at both the phylum and genus levels within the three groups of mice.
Results:
HE staining revealed that compared with control group, model group showed significant reduction in the number of RGCs (P < 0.01), with intracellular vacuolar degeneration and nuclear pyknosis. After QGA II treatment, the number of RGCs was significantly increased compared with model group (P < 0.01), with notable improvements in intracellular vacuolar degeneration. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that the mean OD of Brn3a protein was significantly decreased in model group compared with control group (P < 0.01), while QGA II treatment significantly elevated its expression level (P < 0.01). Analysis of α-diversity showed that after QGA II intervention, the Chao1, Shannon, and Pielou’s evenness indices were significantly increased (P < 0.01), and the observed species index was elevated (P < 0.05). β-Diversity analysis demonstrated distinct clustering among the three groups, indicating relatively low similarity in bacterial community structures. ASV clustering identified a total of 14 061 ASVs across all groups, with 9 514 ASVs shared between model and QGA II groups. At the phylum level, the abundance of Bacteroidetes was significantly decreased in model group compared with control group (P < 0.01), while Firmicutes and the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes (F/B) ratio were significantly increased (P < 0.01). QGA II treatment significantly reduced both Firmicutes abundance and the F/B ratio (P < 0.01). At the genus level, Lactobacillus was dominant across all groups, with its abundance significantly increased in model group (P < 0.01) and subsequently decreased following QGA II intervention (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
QGA II restructured the gut microbiota of DBA/2J mice with chronic high IOP, bringing changes in their diversity and abundance of components. Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Lactobacillus, along with their associated microorganisms, are likely critical components of the gut microbiota that contribute to the optic neuroprotective effects of QGA II on chronic high IOP mice.
