BACKGROUND:Stress-induced damage to hippocampal neurons may underlie abnormalities in neuronal structure and function,ultimately leading to mood disorders.G protein-coupled receptors in brain tissue play an important role in mood regulation.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the mechanism of depression-like behavior in chronic social defeat stress mice based on high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis.METHODS:C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and model group.There was no special treatment in the control group,while a mouse model of chronic social defeat stress was established in the model group.Depression-like behavior was assessed through the sucrose preference test,tail suspension test,and forced swim test.Anxiety behavior was evaluated using the elevated plus-maze,while social behavior was measured through the social interaction test.Cognitive function was assessed with the Y-maze spontaneous alternation test.Immunofluorescence staining was performed to quantify microglia markers in the mouse hippocampus,and Nissl staining was used to examine neuronal damage in mice.High-throughput sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes and gene enrichment in the mouse hippocampus,and qPCR was used to measure the expression of G protein-coupled receptors in the mouse hippocampus.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the control group,chronic social defeat stress mice showed significant behavioral impairments,including increased anxiety,depression,and cognitive deficits.(2)Additionally,the Nissl body light density in hippocampal neurons was significantly reduced in chronic social defeat stress mice.(3)Sequencing results revealed synaptic damage in the neurons after chronic social defeat stress.Microglia activation was also markedly increased in the hippocampus of CSDS mice.Furthermore,the expression of G protein-coupled receptors in the hippocampus was significantly higher in chronic social defeat stress mice compared with the control group.These findings suggest that chronic social defeat stress induces anxiety,depression,and cognitive deficits in mice,accompanied by neuropathological changes in the hippocampus,and that altered G protein-coupled receptors expression may play a key role in these behavioral and neuropathological changes.

Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics and variations of influenza A (H3N2) viruses in Ma'anshan from 2022 to 2024, and to provide a scientific basis for local influenza prevention and control. Methods From April 2022 to March 2024, influenza-like illness (ILI) specimens were collected from three national influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals in Ma’anshan. Samples positive for influenza by real-time PCR were subjected to virus culture and identification. A total of 40 representative A/H3N2 strains with hemagglutination titers ≥8 were selected for whole-genome sequencing. Genetic evolution, homology, amino acid variations, and glycosylation sites were analyzed. Results All H3N2 representative strains from the 2022–2023 influenza season belonged to clade 3C.2a1b.2a.1a.1, while those from the 2023–2024 season fell into clade 3C.2a1b.2a.2a.3a.1. The nucleotide and amino acid sequence similarities of HA and NA between the 40 representative strains and the vaccine strain A/Darwin/6/2021 were all above 97.35%. Compared with the vaccine strain, amino acid mutations were identified in antigenic sites A, B, C, and E, as well as in receptor-binding sites of the HA protein. An I222V substitution was detected in the NA protein. The HA protein contained four additional glycosylation sites compared to the vaccine strain, while the glycosylation pattern of the NA protein remained consistent. Conclusion No antigenic drift was observed in the influenza A/H3N2 viruses in Ma'anshan City from 2022 to 2024, but genetic changes such as branching variations, key amino acid substitutions, and an increase in HA glycosylation sites were observed. These findings underscore the importance of sustained molecular surveillance of local influenza viruses.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism through which Banxia Baizhu Tianmatang ameliorates cognitive impairment in epileptic rats induced by lithium chloride-pilocarpine by regulating the neuroinflammatory reaction mediated by NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） inflammasomes. MethodsSixty male SD rats were randomly allocated into blank， model， carbamazepine （0.125 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， Banxia Baizhu Tianmatang （1.04 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and carbamazepine （0.125 g·kg^-1·d^-1） + Banxia Baizhu Tianmatang （1.04 g·kg^-1·d^-1） groups （n=12）. After the modeling of epilepsy， rats were administrated with corresponding agents by gavage for 12 weeks. At the 6th and 12th week of the intervention， the rats’ hyper-excited behavior was evaluated by the stylus experiment， and at the 12^th week of intervention， the cognitive function was evaluated by Barnes maze. At the same time， the seizure frequency and severity grade （Racine score） were recorded. The serum and hippocampus tissue samples were collected after anesthesia for the following tests. Nissl staining was used to evaluate the degree of neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1 area. The content of malondialdehyde （MDA） in the hippocampus was determined by the thiobarbituric acid （TBA） method. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and interleukin-18 （IL-18） were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Immunohistochemical method was adopted to detect the expression of apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a card （ASC） in the hippocampus. Western blot was employed to quantitatively analyze the protein levels of NLRP3， cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-1 （Caspase-1）， and brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF） in the hippocampus. ResultsThe model group showed increased stylus scores at the 6th and 12^th week after modeling， a decreased Barnes maze strategy score at the 12^th week， a prolonged incubation period （P<0.05）， elevated serum levels of inflammatory factors （P<0.05）， decreased neurons with scattered arrangement and large gaps in the hippocampus， increased content of MDA in the hippocampus （P<0.05）， an increased positive expression of ASC， and up-regulated protein levels of Caspase-1， NLRP3， and BDNF （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the intervention with Banxia Baizhu Tianmatang for 12 weeks was accompanied by a decreased stylus score， epileptic seizures with a decreased score， a decreased number， and shortened duration， an increased Barnes maze strategy score， shortened escape latency （P<0.01）， declined serum levels of inflammatory factors （P<0.05）， regular morphology of hippocampal neurons， reduced MDA content in the hippocampus （P<0.05）， a decreased positive expression of ASC， and down-regulated protein levels of Caspase-1， NLRP3， and BDNF （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In addition， compared with the carbamazepine group， Banxia Baizhu Tianmatang + carbamazepine showed improved performance in controlling the seizure， improved the cognitive behavior score and morphology of hippocampal neurons， alleviated the oxidative stress products， lowered the levels of inflammatory factors， reduced the positive expression of ASC in the hippocampus， and down-regulated the expression of Caspase-1， NLRP3 and BDNF， with no significant differences. ConclusionBanxia Baizhu Tianmatang may reduce neuroinflammation， control epileptic seizures， and ameliorate cognitive impairment by inhibiting the expression of NLRP3 inflammasomes.

Dental implantology has developed rapidly for over half a century,since pure titanium(99.7％)dental cylindrical threaded implants were exploited and osseointegration was introduced in 1960s by Prof.Br?nemark.The long term retention rates of 10 years or more are over 95％.However,the biological complications jeopardize the long term effects of dental implant treatment seriously.The prevalence of dental implant biological complications varies greatly among different reports resulting from the disparities on the defini-tions of dental implant biological complications.After analyzing and summarizing the major opinions proposed internationally in recent years,the consensus for the definition of dental implant biological complications has been reached.Generally the dental implant biologi-cal implications can be classified into early stage(before restoration)biological complications and late stage(after restoration)biological complications.The early stage biological complications include acute and chronic infections,pain,soft tissue deficiency,and osseointegration failure,etc.The late stage complications include peri-implant diseases(peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis),soft tissue deficiency around implant,implant loosening and dropping off,etc.The various risk factors related to different dental implant biological complications,the strategies of the prevention and treatment for the dental implant biological complications have been discussed comprehensively,and the consensus has been reached.It is aimed to advocate the dentist to pay more attention to the early prevention of the biological implant complications,to promote more researches on the implant biological complications,and to help elevate the level of dental implantology in our country.

Objective:To study genotype analysis and influence factors analysis of hepatitis B virus(HBV)deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA)positive samples of negative hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)donors in blood donors without compensation in Nan'an area.Methods:A total of 62,000 HBsAg fast-screened blood donor samples from January 2021 to June 2024 were selected as the study objects.HBV infection,viral load and genotype of HBV DNA positive samples,single factor and influencing factor of HBV DNA positive samples were detected and analyzed.Results:Among the 62000 HBsAg fast-screened blood donor samples,the results were negative by HBsAg screening,moreover,285 cases(0.46％)were HBsAg positive and 61715 cases(99.54％)were negative.NAT positive 180 cases and 118 cases were positive for HBV DNA.The HBV DNA positive rate of HBsAg negative donors was 0.19％(118/62000).HBV DNA of the viral load of positive specimens with＜20 IU/mL was higher than those with 20 to 99 IU/mL and ≥ 100 IU/mL(P＜0.05).HBV DNA of C style of the genotype of positive specimens was higher than B style and unsamples(P＜0.05).Univariate analysis found that HBV DNA positivity was mainly related to the history of intravenous drug use and risky sexual behavior,as well as the history of hepatitis B vaccination and blood transfusion(P＜0.05).According to the Logistic regression analysis,history of intravenous drug use and risky sexual behavior,and blood transfusion were risk factors for positive HBV DNA(OR＞1,P＜0.05),vaccination of hepatitis B vaccine was a protective factor for HBV DNA positivity(OR＜1,P＜0.05).Conclusion:The proportion of HBsAg in Nan'an area is relatively high,but there are still a small number of positive samples,the main genotype was type C,and history of intravenous drug use and risky risk behaviors,as well as history of blood transfusion were all risk factors for positive HBV DNA,vaccination of hepatitis B vaccine is protective factor for HBV DNA positivity.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between Ig class switch recombination(CSR)and mismatch repair(MMR)protein,microsatellite phenotype in extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue(MALT lymphoma).Methods:Forty cases of MALT lymphoma archived in the Department of Pathology,Jiading District Central Hospital,Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Sciences were selected as the observation group,and twenty cases of benign lymphoid tissue hyperplasia were as the control group.The expressions of IgG,IgM,IgD,and IgA in both groups were detected by immunohistochemical double staining,and MMR proteins including MLH1,MSH2,MSH6,and PMS2 in both groups were detected by immunohistochemistry.Multiplex fluorescence PCR capillary electrophoresis was used to detect microsatellite phenotype in tumor and adjacent tissues of the experimental group.Results:In the observation group,the proportions of single Ig heavy chain expression(mode Ⅰ),negative expression(mode Ⅱ),and multiple expression(mode Ⅲ)were 65％(26/40),27.5％(11/40),and 7.5％(3/40),respectively,while in the control group were 0(0/20),5％(1/20),and 95％(19/20).The proportion of Ig heavy chain expression mode Ⅰ+Ⅱ in the observation group was 92.5％,which was significantly higher than 5％in the control group(P＜0.0 1).In the observation group,partial deletion of MMR protein was observed in 3 cases(7.5％),including 2 cases of MSH6 deletion and 1 case of both MSH6 and PMS2 deletion.In the control group,there was 1 case(5％)with PMS2 deletion.There was no significant difference in the deletion rate of MMR protein between the two groups(P＞0.05).A total of 5 cases of microsatellite instability(MSI)were detected in the observation group,including 1 case of low-frequency MSI(MSI-L),4 cases of high-frequency MSI(MSI-H),and 2 cases of MSI-H with MSH6 deletion.When the loss expression of MSI-H or MMR protein was counted as a positive result,the MSI-H rate detected by PCR capillary electrophoresis was 10％(4/40),which was slightly higher than the MMR protein deletion rate detected by immunohistochemistry(7.5％,3/40),but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The MMR protein deletion rates among the Ig heavy chain protein expression mode Ⅰ,mode Ⅱ,and mode Ⅲ groups were 0(0/26),18.2％(2/11),and 33.3％(1/3),respectively.There was a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratios among the three groups(P＜0.05).The MMR protein deletion rates among the MSS,MSI-L,and MSI-H groups were 2.9％(1/35),0(0/1),and 50％(2/4),respectively.There was a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratios among the three groups(P＜0.05).MMR protein deficiency was positively correlated with Ig heavy chain expression pattern and MSI(r=0.41,P＜0.05;r=0.48,P＜0.05),but Ig heavy chain expression pattern was not correlated with MSI(r=0.02,P＞0.05).Conclusion:Ig heavy chain CSR detection is helpful for the differential diagnosis of MALT lymphoma.Low frequency MMR protein deletion and MSI-H phenotype exist in MALT lymphoma,which may be of certain value for the study of its occurrence,development and clinical treatment.

To understand the background of Escherichia coli(E.coli)carried by artificially bred sika deer and the biological characteristics of the isolated strains,such as drug resistance and pathogenicity,in April 2024,we collected 184 fresh deer fecal samples from four deer farms in Luxiang Township,Shuangyang District,Changchun City,Jilin Province,for isolation and cultivation of E.coli.The isolates were tested for drug resistance and biochemical identification with a BD PhoenixTM-100 Automated Microbiology System.The virulence genes were detected with PCR,and the strains were molecularly typed with ERIC-PCR.A total of 165 E.coli strains were isolated from 184 samples of deer feces,with an isolation rate of 89.67%.Twenty strains had a drug resistance phenotype,and the drug resistance rate was 12.12%;these strains included 15 strains of multi-drug resistant bacteria and 11 strains of ESBL-producing bacteria.Virulence gene detection indicated that the sika deer isolates carried multiple diarrhea-associated virulence genes,such as EAST-1(12.12%),eae(1.21%),stx1(7.88%),stx2(7.27%),and STa(1.82%).ERIC-PCR demonstrated that the isolates showed high polymorphism.The ESBL-producing E.coli carried by sika deer are likely to spread drug resistance in the community and livestock population.Some isolates carried multiple diarrhea-associated virulence genes,thus posing a human transmission risk.Therefore,monitoring of drug resistance and virulence genes must be strengthened,and antibiotics must be used reasonably during the breeding process to avoid excessive use and misuse.

Purpose To analyze the sonographic features of incarcerated gravid uterus and evaluate the diagnostic value of ultrasonography.Materials and Methods Clinical data of eight patients diagnosed with incarcerated gravid uterus at Sichuan Provincial Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2018 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Clinical manifestations,sonographic characteristics,management approaches and pregnancy outcomes were evaluated.Results Among the eight confirmed cases,seven presented with initial symptoms of dysuria and urinary retention,while one reported irregular lower abdominal pain.Ultrasonography consistently demonstrated:retroverted and retroflexed uterine position with the uterine body posterior to the cervix.Elongated cervix(range:4.0-8.6 cm)displaced anteriorly.Overdistended,elongated and superiorly displaced bladder in seven cases.Management included successful manual reduction via knee-chest position after catheterization in seven patients.One patient was managed conservatively with close monitoring and delivered by cesarean section at term.All eight patients achieved successful term deliveries with favorable maternal and neonatal outcomes.Conclusion Prenatal ultrasonography plays a crucial role in diagnosing and managing incarcerated gravid uterus.Early recognition of characteristic sonographic features facilitates prompt diagnosis and intervention,thereby mitigating risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes.
