Aim Mouse model of myocardial hypertro-phy was established via intraperitoneal injection of iso-proterenol(ISO)in mice.This approach allows for an in-depth investigation into the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of action of emodin,offering novel in-sights and directions for the improvement of myocardial hypertrophy.Methods The mice were randomly di-vided into the following groups:control group(CON),emodin group(EMO),MAPK activator control group(EMO+Ani),model group(ISO),treatment group(ISO+EMO),and activator intervention group(ISO+EMO+Ani).After treatment with emodin and inter-vention with MAPK activator,the heart weight ratio and cardiac size of each group were observed.Hematoxy-lin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the patho-logical changes in cardiac tissue,and kits were utilized to measure the levels of GSH,LDH,and MDA in the serum.Western blot was employed to detect the protein expression levels of inflammatory and oxidative factors,as well as p-p38,p-ERK,p38,and ERK in cardiac tis-sue.Results Emodin can significantly inhibit the production of myocardial inflammatory and oxidative factors induced by ISO,thereby effectively alleviating the degree of myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis.Af-ter the p38/ERK signaling pathway was specifically ac-tivated by farnesol,the improvement effect of emodin on myocardial hypertrophy was weakened.Further comparison revealed that,compared with the myocardi-al hypertrophy pathological model group,the pathologi-cal protein expression levels in the farnesol-treated group showed no significant difference,and were even higher in some indicators.Conclusion Emodin can effectively inhibit the release of inflammatory factors and improve the state of oxidative stress by modulating the p38/ERK signaling pathway,thereby exerting an ameliorative effect on myocardial hypertrophy.

Objective:To compare the consistency and efficacy of ultrasound and CT in the preoperative diagnosis of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with thyroid cancer, and to explore the clinical value of the combined application of multimodal imaging.Methods:The 119 thyroid cancer patients underwent surgical treatment from January to September 2023 in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Dalian University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent ultrasound and CT examinations before operation. The results of postoperative histopathology examination were taken as the gold standard, the efficacy of ultrasound and CT in preoperative diagnosis of cervical lymph node metastasis was compared.Results:A total of 1 721 cervical lymph nodes were detected in 119 patients with thyroid cancer, among which 1 378 lymph nodes were benign, and 343 lymph nodes were malignant, the rate of malignant lymph nodes was 19.93% (343/1 721). Among them, the proportion of malignant lymph nodes in area Ⅵ was the highest, 22.58% (245/1 085), followed by area Ⅲ, 21.26% (37/174). The sensitivity of CT in diagnosing cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with thyroid cancer was significantly higher than that of ultrasound diagnosis: 58.46% (38/65) vs. 38.46% (25/65), the specificity was significantly lower than that of ultrasound diagnosis: 85.19% (46/54) vs. 96.30% (52/54), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 and <0.05); there was no statistical difference in accuracy between CT and ultrasound ( P>0.05). Conclusions:In the preoperative diagnosis of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with thyroid cancer by ultrasound and CT, ultrasound examination has no radiation risk, while CT examination has a higher diagnostic efficiency.

BACKGROUND:Multiple studies and observations have indicated a close relationship between inflammation,metabolites,and osteoporosis.However,it is still unclear whether there is a genetic causal effect between inflammation-related proteins and osteoporosis and whether metabolites play a mediating role in this process.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the causal relationships between inflammation-related proteins and osteoporosis using Mendelian randomization method as well as the mediating effect of plasma metabolites in this process.METHODS:Summary data from genome-wide association studies(GWAS)were used,with osteoporosis data sourced from the Fengenn database,and GWAS data on inflammation-related proteins and plasma metabolites obtained from published studies.The inverse-variance weighted method was primarily used to assess the exposure-outcome relationships.Bidirectional Mendelian randomization analyses were used to explore the causal relationships between inflammation-related proteins and osteoporosis,and two-step Mendelian randomization was used to discover potential mediating metabolites.Sensitivity analyses were then performed to further validate the robustness of the results.Cochran's Q test was used to assess heterogeneity,and horizontal pleiotropy was evaluated using the MR-Egger intercept and MR-PRESSO methods.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The initial bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis identified five inflammation-related proteins that showed a positive causal relationship with osteoporosis and no reverse causal relationship.Artemin(odds ratio[OR]=0.895,95%confidence interval[CI]:0.819-0.979,P=0.015)was negatively associated with osteoporosis,whereas chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 1(OR=1.100,95%CI:1.002-1.209,P=0.046),chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 11(OR=1.150,95%CI:1.043-1.268,P=0.005),interleukin 17C(OR=1.087,95%CI:1.004-1.176,P=0.040),and tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis(OR=1.108,95%CI:1.002-1.226,P=0.046)were positively associated with osteoporosis.Sensitivity analyses indicated no heterogeneity or pleiotropy in these causal effects.Subsequently,we conducted a two-step Mendelian randomization to discover potential mediating metabolites.This study showed that 1-palmitoyl-gpc(16:0)increased the negative effect of Artemin on osteoporosis.5α-androstan-3α,17β-diol monosulfate increased the risk of osteoporosis mediated by chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 1 and chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 11.The ratio of α-ketoglutarate to succinate led to an increased risk of osteoporosis mediated by chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 11 and interleukin-17C.Spermidine and the ratio of proline to trans-4-hydroxyproline contributed to an increased risk of osteoporosis mediated by chemokine(C-X-C Motif)ligand 11.12,13-DiHOME contributed to an increased risk of osteoporosis mediated by interleukin-17C.The sulfate level of piperine metabolite C16H19NO3(3)and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate contributed to an increased risk of osteoporosis mediated by tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis.In conclusion,the above data indicate that some inflammation-related proteins can influence the risk of osteoporosis,both positively and negatively,and some of these effects are mediated by plasma metabolites.This provides new insights for future investigations into the occurrence and development mechanisms of osteoporosis.

Aim To study the therapeutic effect of al-licin on senna-induced diarrhea in mice and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups:control,model,loperamide positive control group(2 mg·kg-1),allicin low-dose group(6 mg·kg-1),allicin medium-dose group(12 mg·kg-1)and allicin high-dose group(18 mg·kg-1).Except for the con-trol group,the diarrhea model was induced in the other groups by intragastric administration of senna leaf ex-tract.After drug administration,several diarrhea indi-ces were measured:the rate of loose stools,diarrhea index,accumulated frequency of loose stools at differ-ent time points within 5 hours,and small intestine pro-pelling rate.Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were de-tected by ELISA.Serum NO content was determined u-sing the Griess method.The activities of SOD and CAT,as well as MDA content in the ileum and colon,were measured.The pathological changes and the ex-pression of mRNA related to intestinal barrier proteins in the ileum and colon were evaluated using HE stai-ning and RT-qPCR.Results Allicin improved diar-rhea symptoms in mice induced by senna leaf.It re-duced the rate of loose stools,diarrhea index,cumula-tive number of loose stools in five hours,and the intes-tinal propulsion rate.Allicin also protected the intesti-nal mucosa,decreased serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and lowered MDA content in the intestines.It in-creased serum NO levels and enhanced SOD and CAT activities in the intestines.Additionally,allicin upreg-ulated the mRNA expression of AQP1,AQP4,and ZO-1 in intestinal tissues.Conclusions Allicin has a significant therapeutic effect on senna-induced diarrhea in mice.The underlying molecular mechanisms may involve anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects,in-creased NO content,and upregulation of mRNA ex-pression of aquaporins and tight-junction proteins.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of benzoylaconine(BAC)on H9c2 cardio-myocytes after oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxyenation(OGD/R)injury.Methods After an in vitro model of OGD/R injury was established in H9c2 cells,the cells were treated with BAC at different concentrations(0,25,50,75,100 μmol/L)to determine its optimal dose.Then,H9c2 cells were randomly divided into control group,OGD/R group,OGD/R+BAC group(75 μmol),OGD/R+LY294002 group(PI3K/Akt inhibitor),and OGD/R+LY294002+BAC group.Corre-sponding reagent kits were used to determine cell viability and LDH level,as well as the expres-sion levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,MDA and GSH-Px in the cells.Western blotting was applied to detect the expression of the PI3K/Akt pathway proteins,as well as autophagic proteins such as LC3,Beclin1,and P62.Results Compared to the control group,the cell viability was significantly decreased,and LDH level was obviously increased in the OGD/R group(P<0.01).Treatment of 75 μmol/L BAC significantly increased the cell viability(0.87±0.06 vs 40.49±0.06,P<0.01)and decreased the LDH level(86.75±7.79 U/L vs 234.42±6.20 U/L,P<0.01)when compared to the levels of the OGD/R group.OGD/R injury induced notable increases in TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,and MDA expression levels,while decrease of GSH-Px expression level(P<0.01),and down-regulation of p-PI3K,p-Akt and P62 and up-regulation of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Beclin-1(P<0.01)when compared with the control group.Treatment of 75 μmol/L BAC increased the levels of p-PI3K,p-Akt,and P62 proteins(0.90±0.07 vs 0.58±0.04,1.02±0.02 vs 0.49±0.01,1.48±0.05 vs 0.87±0.04)and decreased those of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Beclin-1(0.52±0.01 vs 1.24±0.04,0.12±0.01 vs 0.32±0.02)when compared with the OGD/R group(P<0.01).Conclusions BAC attenu-ates the inflammatory response and oxidative stress of myocardial cells after OGD/R injury,regu-lates autophagy homeostasis,and reduces myocardial cell damage.Its regulatory effect on myocar-dial autophagy homeostasis may be related to the activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway.
