BACKGROUND:Estrogen receptor α can act as an upstream protein to regulate the expression and phosphorylation level of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK).Activation of the estrogen receptor α-AMPK signaling pathway promotes osteogenic proliferation and differentiation.OBJECTIVE:To explore the molecular mechanism of estrogen receptor α regulating AMPK and its effect on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation at osteoblast cell line and molecular biology levels.METHODS:(1)The passaged MC3T3-E1 mouse embryonic osteoblasts were divided into three groups:blank control group,mock group(transfected with pCDNA3.1 control plasmid),and estrogen receptor α group(transfected with pCDNA3.1-estrogen receptor α overexpression plasmid),and RT-qPCR and western blot methods were used to detect the hepatic kinase B1,CaMKKβ,and AMPKα1 mRNA,protein and phosphorylation levels.(2)ChIP-qPCR was used to demonstrate that estrogen receptor α interacts with the hepatic kinase B1 promoter.Dual luciferase assay was used to demonstrate that estrogen receptorα interacts with the hepatic kinase B1 promoter region to activate its transcriptional expression.(3)The cells were divided into three groups:mock+shNC group,estrogen receptor α+shNC group,and estrogen receptor α+shLKB1 group.Changes in the expression levels of hepatic kinase B1,phosphorylated hepatic kinase B1,and phosphorylated AMPKα1 proteins in the cells were detected by western blot.(4)The cells were divided into four groups:mock group,estrogen receptor α group,estrogen receptor α+5 μmol/L Compound C(AMPK inhibitor)group,and estrogen receptor α+10 μmol/L Compound C group.The expression of proteins related to the AMPK signaling pathway and related to osteogenesis and osteoinductivity were detected by western blot method.Cells were transfected for 24 hours and then subjected to osteogenic induction for 14 days.Alkaline phosphatase staining was performed and cell viability in each group was detected.Mineralized nodule formation was detected by alizarin red staining at 21 days of osteogenic induction.(5)The cells were transfected and pretreated with different concentrations of AMPK inhibitor in corresponding groups,and cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Estrogen receptor α activates the AMPK signaling pathway in MC3T3-E1 cells.(2)Estrogen receptor α promotes liver kinase B1 transcription and mediates AMPK signaling pathway activation.(3)Estrogen receptor α promotes the proliferation and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells by activating the AMPK signaling pathway,and the expression of AMPKα1,p-AMPKα,osteoprotegerin,osteopontin,and Runx2 proteins was down-regulated under the intervention of AMPK inhibitor,and the viability of osteoblasts was decreased.(4)To conclude,estrogen receptor α activates the AMPK signaling pathway by acting on liver kinase B1 promoter,promotes osteoblast proliferation and osteogenic differentiation,and prevents osteoporosis.

Based on the theory of circulation of qi,a theoretical model of the circulation of phase fire in the human body was con-structed.It is proposed that cancer toxicity is the key factor that triggers the disorder of phase fire and hinders the circulation of phase fire.The disorder of phase fire and poor circulation are important pathogenesis of the occurrence and development of cancer toxicity.With the principle of strengthening healthy qi and eliminating evil qi,the Wenzi Jiedu method is used to treat tumors,which plays an important role in warming and nourishing,regulating yin and yang,and eliminating cancer toxicity.The combination of war-ming,nourishing and detoxification can promote the return of the phase fire and make the human body's generation and transformation active,providing a new treatment idea for TCM diagnosis and treatment of tumors with mainly cold poison or mixed cold and heat.

The aim of this study is to establish an gene editing method of Mesomycoplasma hyo-pneumoniae(Mhp)based on the homologous recombination principle.The restriction enzyme di-gestion and ligation method combined with gene synthesis were used to construct a shuttle plasmid to achieve replication in both Mhp and Escherichia coli(E.coli).The pGEM?-T vector was used as the skeleton.The oriC sequence of Mhp which can achieve the replication of the plasmid in Mhp was inserted into the vector.Sequences of the Spiroplasma promoter and puromycin resistance gene were then inserted into the above constructed plasmid to screen recombinant clones.The up-stream and downstream homologous arms of p97 were constructed to initiate homologous recombination.The recA gene of E.coli is inserted to improve the efficiency of homologous recom-bination.The obtained shuttle plasmid was then delivered into Mhp by electro-transformation or chemical transformation.A shuttle plasmid,pGEM?-Mhp-oriC-p 97,which can replicate in both Mhp and E.coli was constructed.With the transformation of this plasmid,the carried puromycin gene and recA gene can be expressed,the p97 gene can be edited.Finally,the genetically unstable p97 gene mutant was initially obtained.In this study,a tool for Mhp gene editing based on the principle of homologous recombination was established,which laid a foundation for the develop-ment of tools for studying the pathogenesis of Mhp.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and spatiotemporal clustering of varicella in Lu'an City from 2005 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing varicella prevention and control strategies. Methods Data on varicella cases were collected through the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention Information System. Descriptive epidemiology, temporal trend analysis, seasonal analysis, spatiotemporal clustering analysis, and spatial autocorrelation analysis were conducted using QGIS, JoinPoint, SaTScan and GeoDa software. Results The average annual reported incidence rate of varicella in Lu'an City from 2005 to 2023 was 34.55/100,000, showing a trend of initial increase followed by a decrease. The peak incidence occurred from October to January of the following year (RR=1.97, LLR=1743.95, P=0.001). Students aged 0 to 19 was the primary affected group. Spatiotemporal scan analysis revealed four types of spatiotemporal clusters, with the cluster in Jin'an District from October 2017 to December 2023 being particularly prominent (RR=2.87，LLR=1734.15，P<0.001). Spatial autocorrelation analysis indicated significant clustering of varicella cases in the main urban area (Moran's I=0.216，Z=4.786，P=0.003). Conclusion The incidence of varicella in Lu'an City exhibits distinct seasonal and spatial clustering, and schools and kindergartens in the main urban area are the key to varicella prevention and control. It is necessary to enhance the monitoring of disease outbreaks during peak periods and in key areas, and to increase the two-dose vaccination rate for varicella in areas with case aggregation and among key populations.

This study investigates the material basis and mechanism of Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) using animal experiments, component analysis, network pharmacology, and molecular docking. A mouse model of COPD was constructed by cigarette smoke and lipopolysaccharide(LPS). Blood gas analysis was performed to measure the pH and partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PCO_2) in the blood of the mice. Lung tissue sections were analyzed using HE staining, and the effects of Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum water extract on inflammatory factors(TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in the lung tissue of COPD model mice were studied by qPCR and Western blot. The composition of the Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum water extract was analyzed using UPLC Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS. The SwissTargetPrediction database was used to predict the targets of the chemical components in Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum. GeneCards, OMIM, TTD, PharmGKB and DrugBank disease databases were used to screen for COPD targets, and the potential targets of Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum in treating COPD were identified. A protein-protein interaction(PPI) network of intersection targets was constructed and analyzed using the STRING database and Cytoscape 3.9.0, and core genes were screened. GO functional analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed using R language, and molecular docking verification was conducted using AutoDock Vina software. The results of the animal experiments showed that Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum water extract improved pulmonary ventilation function in COPD model mice, reduced lung inflammatory cells, decreased alveolar cavities, and improved lung tissue condition. The levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were decreased, and the phosphorylation levels of PI3K and AKT were inhibited. Fifty-two chemical components were identified from Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum, and 440 intersection targets related to COPD were found. Nine key components were screened, including hydroxyphenylethylamine, L-tyrosine, L-tyrosyl-L-alanine, 3,4,5-trihydroxy-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid, methyl azelate, zingerone, 6-gingerol, linoleamide, and linoleoyl ethanolamine. Five core targets were identified, including AKT1, TNF, STAT3, ESR1, and IL1B. The PI3K/AKT pathway was identified as the key pathway for the treatment of COPD with Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum. Molecular docking results showed that 75% of the binding energies of key components and core targets were less than-5 kcal·mol~(-1), indicating good binding affinity. In conclusion, Arisaematis Rhizoma Preparatum may improve pulmonary ventilation function, enhance lung pathological morphology, and reduce pulmonary inflammation in COPD model mice by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and downregulating TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β inflammatory factors. The material basis may be associated with L-tyrosyl-L-alanine, 3,4,5-trihydroxy-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid, zingerone and 6-gingerol, and AKT1 and TNF may be the primary targets.
