It is believed that the basic mechanism of cough associated with interstitial lung disease is collaterals deficiency with latent wind: the deficiency of the lung organs and lung collaterals is the basis of its pathogenesis, and latent wind in lung collaterals is the key mechanism of the cough which is difficult to cure. Treatment is based on the principle of supplementing deficiency and treating wind, dispelling the pathogens and unblocking the collaterals. Supplementing deficiency should supplement lungs, boost kidneys, and strengthen spleens to consolidate the root and banking up the origin, and regulate and tonify the lung collaterals; dispelling the pathogens should treat the internal and external winds at the same time, and taking into account the combined pathogens of phlegm, stasis and dampness to clear the stagnation of the lung collaterals.

OBJECTIVE To explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of 3 blood-absorbed components of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid in rats with hyperplasia of mammary gland (HMG). METHODS Female SD rats were divided into control group and HMG group according to body weight, with 6 rats in each group. The HMG group was given estrogen+progesterone to construct HMG model. After modeling, two groups were given 1.485 g/kg of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid (calculated by crude drug) intragastrically, once a day, for 7 consecutive days. Blood samples were collected before the first administration (0 h), and at 5, 15, 30 minutes and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours after the last administration, respectively. Using chlorzoxazone as the internal standard, the plasma concentrations of ferulic acid, paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in rats were detected by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The pharmacokinetic parameters [area under the drug time curve (AUC0-24 h, AUC0-∞), mean residence time (MRT0-∞), half-life (t1/2), peak time (tmax), peak concentration (cmax)] were calculated by the non-atrioventricular model using Phoenix WinNonlin 8.1 software. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the AUC0-24 h, AUC0-∞ and cmax of ferulic acid in the HMG group were significantly increased (P<0.05); the AUC0-24 h, AUC0-∞ , MRT0-∞ , t1/2 and cmax of paeoniflorin increased, but there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05); the AUC0-24 h and MRT0-∞ of rosmarinic acid were significantly increased or prolonged (P<0.05). C ONCLUSIONS In HMG model rats, the exposure of ferulic acid, paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid all increase, and the retention time of rosmarinic acid is significantly prolonged.

ObjectiveThis study aims to observe the effect of sinomenine (SIN) on fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) in synovial tissue of rats with osteoarthritis (OA) and investigate the therapeutic mechanism of SIN on OA, further providing new ideas for the management of osteoarthritis by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). MethodsAn OA rat model was constructed and randomly divided into a control group, an OA group, an OA + SIN-L group (50 mg·kg-1), an OA + SIN-M (100 mg·kg-1), an OA + SIN-H (200 mg·kg-1), and an OA + prednisone (PDN) group (5 mg·kg-1). Following surgical modeling for three weeks, an appropriate medication was administered for four weeks. During modeling and administration, a hot plate test was performed to detect the pain and swelling of the knee joints of the rats. The periarticular tissue was collected for arthropathological observation at the end of drug administration. The expression of cleaved Caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), and FABP4 in the synovial tissue of rats was detected by Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR), and the expression and distribution of FABP4 protein in the synovial membrane were detected by immunofluorescence. ResultsCompared with those in the control group, the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the OA group were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and joint swelling was significantly elevated (P<0.01). The thermal pain threshold was significantly reduced (P<0.01), and the expression of FABP4 protein and the fluorescence intensity were significantly increased (P<0.01). The synovial tissue exhibited significantly increased inflammatory infiltration, proliferated fibroblasts, and an elevated apoptotic index (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with those in the OA group, the serum lipid metabolism indexes of rats in the SIN administration group gradually returned to normal (P<0.05, P<0.01), while the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the SIN-administered group were significantly reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01), and joint swelling was significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). The thermal pain threshold was significantly elevated (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the expression of FABP4 protein and fluorescence intensity in the synovial tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). The synovial tissue displayed significantly reduced inflammatory infiltration and a decreased apoptotic index (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionThe therapeutic effect of SIN on OA may be related to the down-regulation of FABP4 expression, reduction of apoptosis, and inhibition of inflammatory factor expression.

Objective:To explore whether miR-372 can affect the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cell under different expression conditions, and to study the effect of miR-372 on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.Methods:ccRCC cell line (786-O) and normal renal epithelial cell line (HK-2) were selected to detect the expression level of miR-372 in 786-O cell and HK-2 cell by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The mimic group and negative control group were prepared by transfection with the mimic agent, and the inhibitor group and negative control group were prepared by transfection with the inhibitor. After stable transcription of cell lines was obtained, cell migration was detected by cell scratch assay, cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 method, and cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and the expression levels of proliferation and apoptosis related proteins and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blotting. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and independent sample t-test was used for comparison between groups. Results:The expression level of miR-372 was decreased in 786-O cell. Overexpression of miR-372 inhibited the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, promoted the expression of Bcl-2 and Caspase3, and reduced the phosphorylation level of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in 786-O cell.Conclusions:miR-372 can inhibit the migration and proliferation of 786-O cell, and promote cell apoptosis. In addition, miR-372 can inhibit the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate whether hsa_circ_0054595(circRTN4)is involved in glomerulosclerosis of lupus nephri-tis(LN)by regulating monocyte-derived TNF-α.Methods:RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence were used to detect the expression of TNF-α in monocytes of LN patients,and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)was used to detect the expression of circRTN4.THP1 cells were transfected with circRTN4-siRNA and negative control NC-siRNA,respectively.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of TNF-α in THP1cell,and ELISA was used to detect the expression of TNF-α in THP1 culture superna-tant.THP1 cells were transfected with mircoRNA mimics,and the expression of TNF-α was detected by Western blot.The direct bind-ing of miR-486-3p to TNF-α and circRTN4 were verified by reversion experiment and dual luciferase reporter gene experiment.MRL/lpr mice were injected with circRTN4 recombinant adeno-associated virus via tail vein,and the expression of circRTN4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of the mice was detected by RT-qPCR.ELISA was used to detect the expression of serum TNF-α.HE staining and PAS staining were used to observe the pathological changes,and immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of FN.Results:The expressions of TNF-α and circRTN4 were increased in monocytes of LN patients(P<0.05).The expression of TNF-α in THP1 was significantly increased in the LN group(P<0.01).Knockdown of circRTN4 inhibited the expression and secretion of TNF-α(P<0.05),and this effect was achieved by binding to miR-486-3p(P<0.01).In vivo,knockdown of circRTN4 in peripheral blood monocytes of MRL/lpr mice reduced the expression of TNF-α in serum(P<0.05),and improved glomerular cell proliferation and FN deposition.Conclusion:Highly expressed circRTN4 in monocytes promotes the expression of TNF-α by binding to miR-486-3p,and participates in the occurrence and development of glomerulosclerosis in LN.
7.Key techniques and focal issues of digestive tract reconstruction in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy
Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2024;33(10):1600-1612
Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy(LRC)has evolved over the past 30 years,and its oncological efficacy has validated by numerous high-quality studies.Researchers are exploring ways to enhance the quality and safety of LRC while maintaining oncological benefits.Clinical studies focused on surgical quality related to intraoperative anatomical concepts,anatomical planes,anatomical variations,and resection range have yielded significant results,leading to a more standardized and homogenized approach.However,there remains considerable debate on the ileocolonic digestive tract reconstruction during LRC.Currently,ileocolonic reconstruction can be divided into manual suturing and stapled anastomosis according to anastomosis techniques.According to anastomotic configuration,it can be divided into side-to-side,end-to-side,and end-to-end anastomoses.According to the position of the anastomotic operation,it can be divided into extracorporeal(via auxiliary incision)and intracorporeal(within the abdominal cavity)anastomoses.With the advancement of minimally invasive techniques and surgical instruments,intracorporeal side-to-side anastomosis using staplers is increasingly favored by surgeons.However,stapled anastomosis has not completely replaced manual suturing,and the debates over the advantages and disadvantages of these two techniques persist.Additionally,surgeons exhibit varying preferences for anastomotic configurations,and there is no consensus yet.Research on the pros and cons of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal anastomosis is more and more abundant and in-depth.Although high-quality studies addressing some of these issues have been published,some of the findings are controversial.This paper systematically examines the current state of research at home and abroad regarding various anastomosis techniques,the technical characteristics and selection criteria for different anastomotic configurations,and the pros and cons of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal anastomoses in terms of intraoperative handling,postoperative complications,oncological benefits,and healthcare costs.It also addresses key issues like whether to close the mesenteric hiatus.The purpose of this paper is to provide theoretical guidance for clinicians in selecting appropriate gastrointestinal reconstruction methods,optimizing surgical quality,and exploring new directions for clinical research.
