Objective:To observe and analyze the correlations between aqueous humor cytokine concentrations and disorganization of retinal inner layers (DRIL), as well as postoperative visual acuity, in patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (iERM).Methods:A prospective clinical study. From November 2022 to October 2024, 40 eyes of 40 patients diagnosed with iERM at Ophthalmology Center of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital (Affiliated People's Hospital) underwent cataract surgery alone or combined with pars plana vitrectomy (iERM group) were enrolled; 19 eyes of 19 patients undergoing cataract surgery alone during the same period served as the control group. All eyes underwent best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) testing and swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). BCVA was assessed using a logarithmic visual acuity chart and converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) for statistical analysis. Central macular thickness (CMT) was measured using SS-OCT. The iERM group was further subdivided into DRIL-positive and DRIL-negative subgroups (21 eyes and 19 eyes, respectively), based on the presence or absence of DRIL. Aqueous humor samples were collected preoperatively from eyes in both the iERM and control groups. Concentrations of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, TGF-β2, TGF-β3, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AB, hepatocyte growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), placental growth factor (PLGF), glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), angiopoietin (Ang)-1, Ang-2, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured. Follow-up examinations using the same equipment and methods were performed at 1 month postoperatively. Aqueous cytokine levels were compared between the iERM group, control group, DRIL-positive subgroup, and DRIL-negative subgroup. Correlations between aqueous cytokine levels in the iERM group and BCVA or CMT were also analyzed. Intergroup comparisons utilized the Mann-Whitney U test; correlations between variables were assessed using Spearman's rank correlation analysis. Results:Compared to the control group, the iERM group exhibited significantly higher aqueous concentrations of TGF-β1, TGF-β3, PDGF-AB, PLGF, GDNF, ICAM-1, Ang-1, and TNF-α ( P<0.05). Compared to the DRIL-negative subgroup, the DRIL-positive subgroup showed significantly elevated aqueous concentrations of TGF-β3, PDGF-AB, PLGF, GDNF, ICAM-1, Ang-1, Ang-2, TNF-α, and IL-6 ( P<0.05). Significant differences were observed in logMAR BCVA ( P=0.028) and CMT ( P<0.001) within the iERM group between preoperative and 1-month postoperative measurements. LogMAR BCVA differed significantly between the DRIL-positive and DRIL-negative subgroups ( P=0.048). Correlation analysis revealed that baseline aqueous levels of VEGF-A and IL-6 in eyes with DRIL were positively correlated with postoperative BCVA ( r=0.324, 0.452; P=0.042, 0.003). No significant correlation was found between CMT and any cytokine ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Aqueous humor cytokines are closely associated with DRIL in iERM patients. IL-6 and VEGF-A may serve as potential predictive biomarkers for early postoperative visual recovery.

Objective:To evaluate whether the mechanism by which mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-exo) mitigated endotoxin-induced lung injury was related to the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/mitochondrial signaling pathway in alveolar macrophages of mice.Methods:In vivo experiment Eighteen C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) mice were divided into 3 groups ( n=6 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group (L group) and LPS + MSC-exo group (LM group). Six HO-1 conditional knockout mice (HO-1 -/-) were selected and served as HO-1 -/- + MSC-exo + LPS group (HML group). The model of endotoxin-induced lung injury was prepared by injection of LPS 15 mg/kg. MSC-exo (2×10 11 particles) was intravenously injected at 1 h before injection of LPS in LM group. MSC-exo (2×10 11 particles) was intravenously injected and 1 h later LPS was injected in HML group. The expression of HO-1 in macrophages was detected using immunofluorescence, lung injury was assessed following hematoxylin-eosin staining, the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) was determined, and the mitochondrial morphology was observed with a transmission electron microscope. Cell experiment Alveolar macrophages (MH-S) were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), LPS+ phosphate buffer solution group (LP group), LPS+ MSC-exo group (LM group), and LPS+ MSC-exo+ HO-1 small-interfering RNA group (LMS group). Cells were incubated for 12 h with LPS 10 μg/ml in LP, LM and LMS groups. In addition, LM group was incubated with MSC-exo 100 μg/ml, LP group was incubated with the equal volume of phosphate buffer solution, and the alveolar macrophages were transfected with HO-1 small interfering RNA and incubated with MSC-exo 100 μg/ml in LMS group at the same time. The concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, HO-1 expression was detected by Western blot, the mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using JC-1 staining, and the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was detected by fluorescence. Results:In vivo experiment Compared to C group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased ( P<0.05), the fluorescence signal of HO-1 in macrophages was enhanced, and the damage to mitochondria was aggravated in L group. Compared to L group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), the fluorescence signal of HO-1 in macrophages was enhanced, and the damage to mitochondria was reduced in LM group. Compared to LM group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased ( P<0.05), macrophages had no HO-1 fluorescence signal, and the damage to mitochondria was aggravated in HML group. Cell experiment Compared to C group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of HO-1 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited green JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by an enhanced ROS fluorescence signal in LP group. Compared to LP group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly decreased, the expression of HO-1 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited red JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by a weakened ROS fluorescence signal in LM group. Compared to LM group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of HO-1 was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited green JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by an enhanced ROS fluorescence signal in LMS group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which MSC-exo attenuates endotoxin-induced lung injury may be related to up-regulation of HO-1 expression in alveolar macrophages and reduction of mitochondrial damage in mice.

Schizophrenia has various obstacles in cognition， thinking， emotion， behavior and other aspects； it belongs to the category of “madness” in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. Once schizophrenia occurs， multiple factors are often intertwined， and a single therapy is difficult to be effective. At present， TCM compounds and active ingredients have significant effects in the clinical treatment of schizophrenia， which is an important direction for the development of new drugs for schizophrenia. This article summarizes the molecular mechanism of TCM compounds and active ingredients in the treatment of schizophrenia. It is found that Wendan decoction and Yudian decoction can inhibit the apoptosis of hippocampal cells by activating BDNF/TrKB/CREB signaling pathway； quercetin and icariin can promote neural development and regeneration by activating NMDA/ERK signaling pathway； Wendan decoction and icariin can maintain neural cell homeostasis by activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway； Bushen zhuangyang capsule can enhance learning and memory abilities by activating CaMKⅡ signaling pathway； formulas such as Huatan huoxue tongzhi formula can enhance intercellular information transmission by inhibiting PKC signaling pathway； α-humulene and others can restore nerve cell function by inhibiting NRG1/ErbB4 signaling pathway. TCM compounds and active ingredients can improve schizophrenia by intervening in the above-mentioned signaling pathways.

As one of the most difficult-to-cure neuropsychiatric disorders in clinical practice， schizophrenia is mainly manifested by behavioral abnormalities and multidimensional cognitive dysfunction， and the recurrence rate and disability rate of the disease are increasing year by year， which seriously affects patients' social functioning and quality of life， and even threatens the physical and mental health of the surrounding population. At present， the treatment of schizophrenia is mainly based on antipsychotic drugs combined with psychotherapeutic techniques， which have limited long-term therapeutic effects and a high relapse rate. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） boasts the advantages of multi-targets， multi-pathways， multi-links， and multi-levels， and plays a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of schizophrenia and its prognosis. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K） is widely present in cells and is involved in the regulation of protein synthesis and apoptosis， and the different isoforms of protein kinase B （Akt） are of great significance in cell growth， oxidative stress， neuronal development and other processes. In recent years， a large number of studies have found that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is closely related to schizophrenia. Through regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway， TCM monomers and TCM compounds mainly affect key signaling molecules such as mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， glycogen synthase kinase （GSK）， glucose transporter （GLUT） for glucose uptake and transport， and nuclear factor E₂-associated factor 2 （Nrf2）， which organize the intracellular network of centers and regulate the formation and plasticity of neuronal synapse， and they play an important role in mitigating schizophrenia by regulating the processes of cell proliferation， migration and apoptosis of neurons， and has the advantages of multi-targets， all-encompassing and low toxicity. This article analyzes and explains the mechanism of TCM intervention in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway against schizophrenia， in order to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the prevention and treatment of schizophrenia by TCM.

BACKGROUND:Pain mechanisms in patients with lumbar disc herniation are associated with inflammation,autophagy is closely related to intervertebral disc diseases and inflammatory response,and aberrant miR-206 expression can trigger skeletal diseases. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the mechanism of miR-206 on inflammation,analgesia and autophagy related proteins in nucleus pulposus in rats with lumbar disc herniation. METHODS:Sixty SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group,model group,miR-206 mimics-NC group,miR-206 mimics group,miR-206 inhibitor-NC group and miR-206 inhibitor group.Animal models of lumbar disc herniation were established except for the control group.Ten days after modeling,miR-206 mimics-NC group,miR-206 mimics group,miR-206 inhibitor-NC group and miR-206 inhibitor group were injected with miR-206 mimics-NC(20 μmol/L,10 μL),miR-206 mimics(20 μmol/L,10 μL),miR-206 inhibitor-NC(20 μmol/L,10 μL)and miR-206 inhibitor(20 μmol/L,10 μL),respectively.Administration was given once a day for 4 continuous days.The control group and model group were injected with the same dose of normal saline.The paw withdrawal mechanical threshold of bilateral hind feet was measured by Von Frey filaments,and the paw withdrawal thermal latency of bilateral hind feet was measured by heat pain tester.The morphology of dorsal root ganglia was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The expressions of inflammatory factors phospholipase A2,cyclooxygenase 2,prostaglandin E2,tumor necrosis factor α,and interleukin 1β in nucleus pulposus were detected by qPCR.The expressions of autophagy-related proteins LC3I and Beclin-1 were detected by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3,7,and 14 days after modeling,the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold and paw withdrawal thermal latency were both decreased in the model group compared with the control group,while the levels of phospholipase A2,cyclooxygenase 2,prostaglandin E2,tumor necrosis factor α,interleukin 1β,LC3I and Beclin-1 increased(P<0.05).The above indexes showed no significant changes in the miR-206 inhibitor-NC group and miR-206 mimics-NC group compared with the model group(P>0.05).Compared with the miR-206 mimics-NC group,the miR-206 mimics group had lower paw withdrawal mechanical threshold and paw withdrawal thermal latency and higher levels of phospholipase A2,cyclooxygenase 2,prostaglandin E2,tumor necrosis factor α,interleukin 1β,LC3I,and Beclin-1 levels(P<0.05).Compared with the miR-206 inhibitor-NC group,the rats in the miR-206 inhibitor group showed opposite changes in the above indicators,and there were significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).To conclude,inhibition of miR-206 can significantly improve the level of inflammatory factors in nucleus pulposus of rats with lumbar disc herniation,increase pain threshold,and reduce autophagy.The mechanism is related to the inhibition of LC3I and Beclin-1 expression.
