Objective:To investigate the anti-aging and antioxidant effect of the heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) on human retinal pigment epithelial cells.Methods:Two HSF1-deficient ARPE cells (ARPE/Hsf1 -/-) were constructed by using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat and associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) gene editing system and named H8, H9 konckout cell strains.Experiments were operated on the 3 cell strains: wild-type, H8 and H9 cells.The content of reactive oxygen species in ARPE-19 cell was measured by DHE probe staining combined with flow cytometry technology, and the cell cycle was measured by flow cytometry technology.The cell viability at different time points was measured using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8).Crystal violet staining assay was used to measure the relative ratio of cell survival.SA-β-gal staining assay was used to detect the ratio of ARPE-19 senescent cells.The expressions of HSP70, HSP27, clusterin (CLU), p53, p21 and interleukin (IL)-1β proteins were measured by Western blot technology.The expressions of p53, p21, IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP1) mRNA were measured by quantitative real-time PCR technology.Relative expression of heat shock response protein under different heat shock treatment conditions and HSP90 inhibitor IPI504, relative survival with different concentrations of H 2O 2, relative expression of p21 protein after treatment with or without ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine (NAC) were compared in each cell strain. Results:Gene sequencing showed that H8 and H9 cell strains successfully carried mutated genes.Western blot experiment results showed that H8 and H9 cell strains did not express HSF1 protein, and HSF1 was successfully knocked out in ARPE-19 cells.Compared with wild-type cell, the expression levels of HSP70, HSP27 and CLU proteins in H8 and H9 cell strains significantly decreased, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05), and no significant difference was found in the relative HSP90 protein expression level ( F=0.29, P>0.05).Under different heat shock stimulation and IPI504 induction, the HSP70, HSP27, and CLU protein levels significantly increased in wild-type cells compared with before treatment, and the HSP70, HSP27, and CLU protein levels were significantly lower in H8 and H9 cell strains than in corresponding treated wild-type cells (all at P<0.05).Compared with wild-type cell strains, cell viability significantly decreased in H8 and H9 cell strains at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours (all at P<0.05).Compared with wild-type cell strains, the percentage of cells in G1 phase was significantly higher and the mRNA and protein levels of the cell cycle inhibitors p53 and p21 significantly increased in H8 and H9 strains, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05), and the ratio of positive cells for SA-β-gal staining significantly increased, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.001).The relative expression of aging-related inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, and MCP1 mRNA decreased, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.001).In addition, compared with wild-type cell strains, the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was higher in H8 and H9 cell strains, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.001).The expression of p21 protein in H8 and H9 cell strains wtih NAC treatment decreased significantly compared with non-NAC treatment cells (both at P<0.05).Compared with wild-type cell strains, H8 and H9 cell viability decreased at 200, 400, 600, and 800 μmol/L H 2O 2 treatment conditions, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Knockdown of HSF1 can downregulate the expression of heat shock proteins, activate the ROS/P53/P21 pathway, induce senescence in RPE cells, and increase the sensitivity of RPE to oxidative stress stimuli.HSF1 may have anti-senescence and anti-oxidant regulatory effects in RPE cells.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided ethanol ablation of benign insulinoma and compare its' advantages and disadvantages with surgical treatment. Methods From April 2011 to February 2016, clinical data of 38 patients with benign insulinoma treated by EUS-guided ethanol ablation or surgical treatment were retrospectively analyzed. Results 97.4% (37/38) patients had a typical clinical manifestation of Whipple's triad, and the I/G ratio of 82.9% patients (29/35) was more than 0.3 with their onset of hypoglycemia. The positive preoperative etiologic diagnosis rates of transabdominal ultrasonography, CT, MRI, PET/CT and EUS were 50.0%, 67.6%, 66.7%, 75.0%, 89.7% respectively. In the current study, 18 patients underwent EUS-guided ethanol ablation (EUS-FNI group) and 20 patients received surgicaltreatment (surgical group). Compared with the surgical group, the operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage volume, postoperative complications, length of stay and hospitalization costs were significantly reduced in the EUS-FNI group (P < 0.05). No treatment-related complications was observed in EUS-FNI group, while 40.0% (8/20) patients in surgical group had complications. During the follow-up period, all these patients maintained stable blood glucose without taking medication, and there's no recurrence of insulinoma in EUS-FNI group after the last treatment with alcohol injection; In surgical group, only 90.0% (18/20) patients had no recurrence, episode of hypoglycemia was less after the operation in 10.0% (2/20) patients. Conclusion EUS-guided ethanol ablation of benign insulinoma is safe and effective, compared with traditional surgical treatment, EUS-guided ethanol ablation is minimally invasive, costs less, recovers fast after treatment and has fewer complications.

Objective To observe the action ofFu Liu Zhen (acupuncture at the six abdominal points) plus moxa-box moxibustion at umbilicus on a community population of qi and yang deficiency.Method Two hundred subjects diagnosed with qi deficiency and/or yang deficiency were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 100 cases in each group. The two groups both received constitution-associated health education, and the treatment group was additionally intervened byFu Liu Zhen plus moxa-box moxibustion at umbilicus, while the control group didn’t receive any other intervention. The Score of Constitution in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and the number of people of each constitution were observed prior to the intervention, right after the intervention, 6 months after the intervention and 12 months after the intervention.Result In the treatment group, the scores of qi deficiency and yang deficiency after the intervention, 6 months after the intervention and 12 months after the intervention were significantly different from that prior to the intervention (P<0.01). The scores of the corresponding constitution types (qi deficiency, yang deficiency) after the intervention, 6 months after the intervention and 12 months after the intervention were significantly different from that before the intervention (P<0.01). The proportions of subjects with harmonious constitution, qi deficiency, and yang deficiency in the treatment group after the intervention, 6 months and 12 months after the intervention were significantly different from that prior to the intervention (P<0.01). The proportions of subjects with harmonious constitution, qi deficiency, and yang deficiency in the treatment group after the intervention, 6 months and 12 months after the intervention were significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionFu Liu Zhen plus moxa-box moxibustion at umbilicus can improve the qi-deficiency and yang-deficiency constitutions in the community population.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) guided ethanol ablation in patients with insulinoma. Methods The data of 10 patients with insulinoma trea-ted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2013 to January 2015 were prospectively analyzed. Results The patients were given EUS-guided ethanol ablation with dose of 0. 10 to 2. 00 ml(average 0. 70 ± 0. 62 ml)in pancreatic lesions for 15 times. No complications were observed dur-ing and after the procedure. The blood glucose improved after the procedure[4. 8(3. 9-5. 5)mmol/ L VS 2. 4 (1. 9-2. 5)mmol/ L,P < 0. 05]and the serum insulin level significantly decreased[83. 7(40. 1-143. 5) pmol/ L VS 177. 3(66. 5-200. 6)pmol/ L,P<0. 05]. The average hospital stay was(4. 3±1. 5)days. The patients were followed up for 6-12 months. EUS indicated that the echo of pancreatic lesions changed from high to low. CE-EUS revealed low enhancement and lack of blood supply. Conclusion EUS-guided ethanol ablation may become a promising minimally invasive treatment for insulinoma because of its safety,efficacy and low price.
