Objective:To investigate the regulatory effect and mechanism of interleukin-22 (IL-22) on the gingival epithelial barrier in the context of periodontal inflammation.Methods:IL-22 knockout (IL-22 KO) mice were constructed, and periodontitis mice models were established through oral gavage with polymicrobial inoculation. DNAs were extracted from the oral plaques of IL-22 KO periodontitis mice group ( n=7) and their wild-type littermates periodontitis group ( n=7) to establish a periodontitis-related oral microbiota database"PD-RiskMicroDB", determining the relationship between changes in oral microbiota and microbial function in two groups using 16S rRNA sequencing results. Gingival epithelial cells (GEC) were cultured by modified trypsinization method, and were stimulated with 100 μg/L IL-22, Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) (multiplicity of infection:100), separately or together for 3 and 12 hours. The experimental groups were as follows: control group (no stimulation), IL-22 group, Pg group and Pg+IL-22 group. The expression of barrier protein E-cadherin in each group at 3 h was detected by immunofluorescence, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blotting. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran-mediated epithelial cell permeability experiment was conducted to clarify the changes in permeability of GEC in each group at 3 and 12 h. The mRNA expressions of E-cadherin in the gingival epithelium of wild-type littermates periodontitis group and IL-22 KO periodontitis group were detected by RT-qPCR. Fifteen C57BL/6 wild-type mice were randomly divided into control group ( n=5), periodontitis group ( n=5) and periodontitis+IL-22 treatment group ( n=5). RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining were used to detect the expression level of E-cadherin in the gingival epithelium of each group. Results:16S rRNA sequencing results showed that the composition of oral microbiota changed in IL-22 KO periodontitis group, of which the abundance of bacterial genera related to periodontal tissue invasion was significantly increased (linear discriminant analysis score: 2.22, P=0.009), compared with wild-type littermates periodontitis group. In vitro cell experiments showed that after Pg infection for 3 hours, the cell connections of GEC in Pg group were interrupted, and the fluorescence intensity of E-cadherin was reduced in Pg group compared with the control group. Meanwhile, the mRNA and protein expression levels of E-cadherin (mRNA: 0.69±0.12; protein: 0.60±0.12) were downregulated compared with the control group [mRNA: 1.00±0.00 ( P=0.043); protein: 1.04±0.08 ( P=0.003)], respectively. The fluorescence intensity of E-cadherin in the Pg+IL-22 group was enhanced compared with Pg group, and expression levels of E-cadherin mRNA (1.16±0.10) and protein (0.98±0.07) in Pg+IL-22 group showed a significant increase compared with Pg group [mRNA: 0.69±0.12 ( P=0.005); protein: 0.60±0.12 ( P=0.007)]. The result of epithelial permeability test showed that there was no statistical difference in epithelial permeability among control group, Pg group, IL-22 group and Pg+IL-22 group with treatment for 3 hours ( F=0.20, P=0.893). While when the treatment time turned to be 12 hours, the epithelial barrier permeability showed a significant increase in Pg group (1.39±0.15) compared with control group (1.00±0.00, P=0.027), and a decrease in Pg+IL-22 group (1.02±0.18) compared with Pg group (1.39±0.15, P=0.034). In vivo, the mRNA expression of E-cadherin in the gingival epithelium of IL-22 KO periodontitis group decreased significantly (0.32±0.21) compared with wild-type littermates periodontitis group (1.01±0.01) ( t=5.70, P=0.005). Moreover, RT-qPCR and IHC staining results showed that the mRNA expression level of E-cadherin (0.40±0.07) and absorbance value of E-cadherin positive expression (0.02±0.00) in gingival epithelial tissue of periodontitis group were both significantly down-regulated compared with control group [mRNA: 1.00±0.00 ( P=0.005); absorbance value of E-cadherin positive expression: 0.04±0.01 ( P=0.006)]. Meanwhile, the mRNA expression level of E-cadherin (1.06±0.24) and the absorbance value of E-cadherin positive expression (0.03±0.01) were both observed increase in periodontitis+IL-22 treatment group compared with periodontitis group ( P=0.003, P=0.039). Conclusions:IL-22 may exert a protective effect on the gingival epithelial barrier in an inflammatory environment by regulating the invasiveness of oral microbiota and the expression of host barrier protein.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) in the assessment of acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods:598 patients diagnosed with AP admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University between January 2016 and December 2020 were recruited and divided into severe acute pancreatitis group (SAP group, n=57) and non-severe acute pancreatitis group (non SAP group, n=541) according to the Atlanta Classification (2012 revision). General clinical data and related biochemical indicators of all enrolled patients were collected, and Bedside Index of Acute Pancreatitis Severity (BISAP) score, Ranson score and CT Severity Index (CTSI) score were performed. The risk factors of SAP were analyzed by logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the evaluation value of AIP and various scoring systems on the severity of pancreatitis. Results:The AIP, white blood cell (WBC), neutrophil count (NEUT), fasting blood glucose (FBG), serum total cholesterol (TC) level, proportion of hyperlipidemia, proportion of diabetes, Ranson score, BISAP score, CTSI score of patients in SAP group were higher than those in non SAP group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that AIP was an independent risk factor for SAP ( P<0.05). ROC curve showed that the are under the curve (AUC) of SAP predicted by AIP was 0.706(95% CI: 0.631-0.782, P<0.001). Conclusions:AIP is an independent risk factor for SAP, which helps to assess the severity of AP.

Objective:To analyze the evolutionary characteristics and variation of etiological agent in an acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) outbreak in a city of Guangdong province in May, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating a new round of measures for prevention and control of AHC epidemic.Methods:In this study, 20 conjunctival swabs were collected from AHC patients, and enterovirus, human enterovirus 70 (HEV70) and coxsackievirus A 24 variant (CVA24v) nucleic acids were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. In addition, the VP1 and 3Cpro regions of the CVA24v positive samples were sequenced to analyze their evolutionary relationship with the CVA24v strains circulating in China and abroad.Results:All the 20 eye swab samples were EV-positive, and CVA24v-positive, with a positive rate of 100.00%, and all were HEV70-negative.The genomes of CVA24v in VP1 and 3Cpro regions of CVA24v in 5 and 7 samples were successfully sequenced. Based on molecular characterization analysis of VP1 and 3Cpro regions, it was found that the CVA24v isolated in this outbreak had the greatest nucleotide similarity with the CVA24v strains isolated in Thailand in 2014 and French Reunion Islands in 2015. The phylogenetic analysis of 3Cpro and VP1 regions showed that the CVA24v isolated in this outbreak is clustered together with the CVA24v that was prevalent in Thailand in 2014 and the French Reunion Islands in 2015, and have high affinity. Compared with CVA24v isolated in Guangdong in 2010, Thailand in 2014, and French Reunion Islands in 2015, CVA24v isolated in this outbreak was replaced at 4 amino acid sites in 3Cpro region and 1 amino acid site in VP1 region.Conclusions:The cause of this outbreak is enterovirus CVA24v, which has the highest similarity to CVA24v isolated in Thailand in 2014 and in the French Reunion Islands in 2015. There were new amino acid mutations in both 3Cpro and VP1 regions.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) blockers on G protein and heart function changes in rats with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) MethodsWistar rats with AMI induced by left anterior descending coronary branch ligation were randomly divided into compared with sham operation group. Eight weeks after therapy, hemodynamics was assessed by inserting catheters and the level of G protein was detected by Western blot analysis. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group, systolic blood pressure(SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP) and left ventrieular pressure maximal rate of rise and fall(±dp/dtmax) in AMI group were significantly decreased, while left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and Gs and Gi protein levels were significantly increased (all P<0.05). Compared with AMI group, LVSP and ± dp/dtmax were increased, but LVEDP and Gi protein level were significantly decreased in metoprolol and carvedilol group. LVEDP and Gi protein level were decreased in carvedilol group compared with metoprolol group. ConclusionsCarvedilol can effectively suppress the change of G protein and improve the heart function after AMI, and the effect is better than that of metoprolol. This may be related with its β2-AR blocking effect.
