The amygdala is an important hub for regulating emotions and is involved in the pathophysiology of many mental diseases, such as depression and anxiety. Meanwhile, the endocannabinoid system plays a crucial role in regulating emotions and mainly functions through the cannabinoid type-1 receptor (CB1R), which is strongly expressed in the amygdala of non-human primates (NHPs). However, it remains largely unknown how the CB1Rs in the amygdala of NHPs regulate mental diseases. Here, we investigated the role of CB1R by knocking down the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CNR1) gene encoding CB1R in the amygdala of adult marmosets through regional delivery of AAV-SaCas9-gRNA. We found that CB1R knockdown in the amygdala induced anxiety-like behaviors, including disrupted night sleep, agitated psychomotor activity in new environments, and reduced social desire. Moreover, marmosets with CB1R-knockdown had up-regulated plasma cortisol levels. These results indicate that the knockdown of CB1Rs in the amygdala induces anxiety-like behaviors in marmosets, and this may be the mechanism underlying the regulation of anxiety by CB1Rs in the amygdala of NHPs.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of the circular cases violating the " nine prohibitions" in recent years, so as to provide a basis for further strengthening the moral culture construction of the healthcare industry.Methods:Data came from the reported cases released on official websites of the discipline inspection committees, supervision committees and health committees at all levels in China from December 2013 to August 2021, which were identified by searching the keyword " case or report or moral culture and nine prohibitions" . Descriptive analysis and frequency analysis were conducted on the reported time, region and province, as well as the involved units, departments, persons, punishment results and case classification data of all the cases.Results:A total of 102 cases violating the " nine prohibitions" were included, of which the cases from 2014 to 2015 topped the rest, accounting for 51.96%(53 cases). Top three regions of these cases were central China, east China and southwest China, with 31 cases, 27 cases and 18 cases respectively. The units involved were mainly tertiary medical institutions, accounting for 44.12%(45 cases). More medical staff(134 people) than administrative staff(85 people) were involved in the cases. The largest number of cases was receiving kickbacks, with 52 cases(50.98%). The punishment results of cases included judicial procedures(76 people), Party discipline and government discipline punishment(67 people) and organizational punishment(76 people).Conclusions:Moral culture problem in China′s healthcare sector is characterized in wide coverage, complexity, comprehensiveness and long-term. Relevant authorities should keep up their efforts in enhancing the awareness of medical workers, improving the synergy mechanism in this regard, and strengthening the internal management of medical institutions.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of severe hyperbilirubinemia in full-term infants who met the exchange transfusion criteria and were treated by blood exchange transfusion and phototherapy.Methods:A total of 168 full-term infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia who met the criteria for exchange transfusion and were hospitalized in the Neonatology Department of seven tertiary hospitals in Hebei Province from June 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively included. According to the treatment protocol, they were divided into two groups: exchange transfusion group (38 cases) and phototherapy group (130 cases). Two independent sample t-test and Chi-square test were used to compare the clinical manifestations and follow-up results between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for poor prognosis. Results:Neonatal severe hyperbilirubinemia in the exchange transfusion and phototherapy group were both mainly caused by hemolytic disease [42.1%(16/38) and 29.2%(38/130)], sepsis [28.9%(11/38) and 11.5%(15/130)] and early-onset breastfeeding jaundice [15.8%(6/38) and 11.5%(15/130)]. Total serum bilirubin level on admission in the exchange transfusion group was significantly higher than that in the phototherapy group [(531.7±141.3) vs (440.0±67.4) μmol/L, t=3.870, P<0.001]. Moreover, the percentage of patients with mild, moderate and severe acute bilirubin encephalopathy in the exchange transfusion group were higher than those in the phototherapy group [15.8%(6/38) vs 3.8%(5/130), 7.9%(3/38) vs 0.8%(1/130), 13.2%(5/38) vs 0.0%(0/130); χ2=29.119, P<0.001]. Among the 168 patients, 135 were followed up to 18-36 months of age and 12 showed poor prognosis (developmental retardation or hearing impairment) with four in the exchange transfusion group (12.9%, 4/31) and eight in the phototherapy group (7.7%, 8/104). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that for full-term infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia who met the exchange transfusion criteria, phototherapy alone without blood exchange transfusion as well as severe ABE were risk factors for poor prognosis ( OR=14.407, 95% CI: 1.101-88.528, P=0.042; OR=16.561, 95% CI: 4.042-67.850, P<0.001). Conclusions:Full-term infants who have severe hyperbilirubinemia and meet the exchange transfusion criteria should be actively treated with blood exchange transfusion, especially for those with severe ABE, so as to improve the prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of microRNA-210 agonist (agomiR-210) on kidney in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) rats.Methods:Thirty-six 5-week-old male SD rats were divided into normal control (NC) group, agomiR-NC control group, agomiR-210 control group, DKD model group, DKD+agomiR-NC group and DKD+agomiR-210 group, with 6 rats in each group. Diabetic rats were established by a high-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ), then were fed for 12 consecutive weeks to construct DKD model rats. During 2nd-4th week of continuous feeding, the rats in DKD+agomiR-210 group were injected with 20 nmol/kg agomiR-210 via tail vein twice a week. Blood glucose levels, 24 h urine albumin (Alb) and 24 h urine microalbumin (MAU) contents were measured regularly. At the end of the 12th week, the rats were sacrificed, and renal tissues were collected. The renal histopathological changes were assessed by HE, PAS and Masson staining methods. The mRNA and protein expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 in renal tissues were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The distributions and expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), typeⅠ collagen (Col-Ⅰ), type Ⅳ collagen (Col-Ⅳ) and fibronectin (FN) in renal tissues were detected by immunohistochemical method. The protein expression levels of phospho(p)-Smad3 and p-NF-κB p65 in renal tissues were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemical methods.Results:Compared with DKD model group, the renal pathological damages in DKD+agomiR-210 group were improved, the blood glucose level, glycogen deposition and collagen accumulation were significantly decreased (all P<0.05), the urinary excretions of Alb and MAU were significantly reduced (all P<0.01), and the expressions of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, α-SMA, Col-Ⅰ, Col-Ⅳ, FN, p-Smad3 and p-NF-κB p65 in renal tissues were significantly decreased (all P<0.01). Conclusion:AgomiR-210 can alleviate renal pathological changes and urinary Alb and MAU excretion in rats with DKD, which may be related to its inhibition of Smad3 and NF-κB activity.

Objective To evaluate the effects of inhalation sevoflurane in the early ischemia and reperfusion on pulmonary inflammatory response in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation (ECC). Methods Forty patients with rheumatic heart disease scheduled for elective valve replacement were randomly assigned into 2 groups (20 patients in each group): control group and sevoflurane group. In sevoflurane group, 2% sevoflurane was inhaled for 15 min before and after the ascending aorta was blocked, and also before and after the ascending aorta was opened. Paitents in control group didn′t inhale sevoflurane. Time was defined as the followings: after anesthesia and before skin incision (T0), immediately before ECC (T1), immediately after ECC (T2), 2 h after ECC (T3), 6 h after ECC (T4) and 24 h after ECC (T5). At T0, T2, T3, T5, the radial artery blood was obtained to detect the levels of plasma tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-8(IL-8) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1). At T1, T2, the pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein blood was obtained to detect the neutrophil count and calculate the differences between the vein and artery. At T0, T2, T3, T4, T5, the arterial blood gas was detected and differences of alveoli-arterial oxygen pres [P(A- a)O2], oxygenation index (OI), static compliance (Cst) were calculated. Results The levels of plasma TNF-α, IL-8 and sICAM-1 were higher at T2, T3, T5 than those at T0 in two groups (P<0.05). The levels of plasma TNF-α, IL-8 and sICAM-1 were decreased in sevoflurane group at T2 and T3, compared with those in control group (P<0.05). The neutrophil counts of pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein and the differences between the vein and artery were higher at T2 than those at T0 in two groups (P<0.05). The neutrophil counts of pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein and the differences between the vein and artery were decreased in sevoflurane group at T2 compared with those of control group (P<0.05). The level of P(A- a)O2 was higher at T2, T3, T4 and T5 than that at T0 in two groups (P<0.05). The level of OI was decreased at T2, T3, T4 and T5 compared with that at T0 in two groups (P<0.05). The level of Cst was decreased at T2, T3 and T4 compared with that at T0 in two groups (P<0.05). The level of P(A-a)O2 was decreased in sevoflurane group at T2, T3 and T4 compared with that in control group (P<0.05). The levels of OI and Cst were higher in sevoflurane group at T2, T3 and T4 compared with those in control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Severe pulmonary inflammation often occurs during cardiac surgery with ECC, and it can be relieved by inhalation of sevoflurane in the early ischemia and reperfusion.
