OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and underlying mechanism of hydroxytyrosol(HT)on mouse chondrocyte injury induced by oxidative stress.METHODS Mouse chondrocytes were incubated with varying concentrations of HT 0-400 μmol L-1 for 24 h,and the viability of the mouse chondrocytes was assessed using CCK-8 kit.An oxidative stress model of chondrocytes was estab-lished by the addition of H2O2 200 μmol L-1.The experimental groups included the cell control group,H2O2 group,and H2O2+HT 10,50 and 250 μmol·L-1 groups.After 24 h,the mRNA expression levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2),prostaglandin E2(PGE2),inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),matrix metalloproteinase-3(MMP-3),MMP-13,a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with throm-bospondin motifs-4(ADAMTS-4),ADAMTS-5,SRY-box transcription factor-9(SOX-9)and aggrecan(ACAN)in mouse chondrocytes were detected by real-time quantitative PCR,the intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)level in chondrocytes was measured with 2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diace-tate(DCFH-DA)staining,while the mitochondrial membrane potential was evaluated using JC-1 staining.After 48 h,the protein expression levels of iNOS,COX-2,MMP-13,and type Ⅱ collagen(Col-2)in mouse chondrocytes were detected using Western blotting.RESULTS HT at concentrations≤350 μmol·L-1 had no significant effect on the survival of mouse chondrocytes.Compared with the cell control group,after 24 h,the mRNA expression levels of IL-6,COX-2,PGE2,iNOS,MMP-3,MMP-13,ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 in the chondrocytes of mice in the H2O2 group were increased,while the mRNA expression levels of SOX-9 and ACAN were decreased.Additionally,there was an elevation in the ROS level and a significant loss of mitochondrial membrane potential in the chondrocytes of mice.Compared with the H2O2 group,after treatment with HT 10,50 and 250 μmol·L-1,there were significant decreases in mRNA expression levels of IL-6,COX-2,PGE2,iNOS,MM P-3,MMP-13,ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5,the mRNA expressions of SOX-9 and ACAN were increased,the ROS level was lowered.After treatment with HT 50 and 250 μmol L-1,the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential was ameliorated.Compared to the cell control group,the protein expressions of iNOS,COX-2 and MMP-13 were upregulated in the H2O2 group,while the protein expression of Col-2 was downregulated after 48 h.Compared to the H2O2 group,treatment with HT at concentrations of 10,50 and 250 μmol·L-1 resulted in decreased protein expressions of iNOS,COX-2 and MMP-13 in mouse chondrocytes,but the protein expression of Col-2 increased following treatment with HT 50 and 250 μmol L-1.CONCLUSION HT can ameliorate H2O2-induced chondrocyte injury by reducing intracellular ROS levels and alleviating the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential,suppressing the release of inflammatory cytokines,inhibiting catabolic processes,and promoting anabolic activities.

Through literature research,this study expounds the emergence of wholly foreign-owned hospitals(WFOHs)from both policy formulation and intrinsic demand perspectives.By accessing the current services landscape of WFOHs,the study systematically analyzes their developmental opportunities and challenges.Strategic recommendations are subsequently proposed across four key aspects:strengthening regulatory supervision,improving the medical insurance system,enhancing professional workforce development,and promoting Sino-foreign cooperation.These measures aim to facilitate WFOHs'high-quality develop-ment,thereby elevating institutional competitiveness,driving continuous healthcare service innovation,and ultimately delivering enhanced medical care that is efficient,accessible,and patient-centered.

Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumor in head and neck surgery.In recent years,the incidence rate of thyroid cancer has increased rapidly.The traditional treatment is mainly surgical resection,supplemented by 131I treatment,but for advanced or metastatic thyroid cancer,these methods have limited effect.With the deepening of research on the molecular pathogenesis of thyroid cancer,targeted therapy has become a new research hot spot and important treatment method.In recent years,targeted therapy drugs have emerged one after another,such as sorafenib,anlotinib,serpatinib,pratinib,etc.,all of which have shown good efficacy and significantly improved the progression free survival and objective remission rate of patients.However,targeted therapy still faces many problems such as drug resistance,and further research and development of more effective new drugs are needed.This article summarized the research progress of targeted therapy,and aimed to provide reference for the treatment of advanced or iodine refractory thyroid cancer.

Objective:To explore the role and mechanism of neurotrophin-3(NT-3)in promoting neurological func-tion recovery after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods:Twenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(Sham),middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)group,and MCAO/R+NT-3 group.The neurological function scores of rats in each group were evaluated using the modified Garcia score.Western Blot was used to detect the expression of NT-3 and LC3B in brain tissues of rats.Culture dishes with the same density of neurons were randomly divided into normal group(Normal),oxygen-glucose deprivation(OGD)group,OGD+NT-3 group,OGD+NT-3+PF-06273340(TrkC inhibitor)group,OGD+NT-3+ZSTK474(PI3K inhibitor)group,and OGD+NT-3+CCT128930(AKT inhibitor)group.Western Blot was used to detect the expression of TrkC,the phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT,and LC3B in neurons.The morphological changes of neurons and the phenomenon of neuronal autophagy were observed using autophagy-specific fluorescent staining.Results:The animal experiment found that the expression of NT-3 increased in the brain tissue with ischemia-reperfusion injury(P＜0.05),and after the treatment with exogenous NT-3,the modified Garcia score increased(P＜0.05),and the level of autophagy weakened(P＜0.05).The cell experiment found that NT-3 can inhibit neuronal autophagy under ischemic hypoxia and maintain the neuronal morphology to the maximum extent.After using PF-06273340,the expression of p-PI3K and p-AKT de-creased(P＜0.05).After using ZSTK474 and CCT128930,the autophagy-inhibiting effect of NT-3 weakened(P＜0.05).Conclusion:NT-3 inhibits autophagy via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to maintain neuronal survival,thereby promoting the recovery of neurological function after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.

Objective:To introduce a surgical technique of " short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method and its effects in the surgery of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty.Methods:From August 2019 to January 2022, 15 cases of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty due to axillary approach breast augmentation for micromastia were admitted to the Plastic Surgery Department of Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital, aged 23-35 years (27.3±3.6) and duration of dislocation from 16 to 35 days (23.8±5.8). There were 12 patients showed unilateral prosthesis drops and 3 patients showed bilateral prosthesis drops. " Short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method was used to solve the problem, i. e., 2-0 non-absorbable sutures were used to eliminate the lower pole of prosthetic cavity with " short distances and multi-segment" sutures. The distance from the nipple to the midline of the sternum, the distance from the sternotomy to the nipple, the distance from the nipple to the inframammary fold and the distance from the midclavicular point to the inframammary fold were measured bilaterally before and after surgery, and statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy of the " short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method for early descent of prosthesis after breast augmentation.Results:All incisions healed by first intention without complications such as hematoma, infection, or scar hyperplasia. 15 patients were followed up for 6-12 months (8.0±1.9). 14 patients were satisfied with the results after surgery, and 1 patient received satisfactory results after secondary surgery. The distance from nipple to inframammary fold was shortened by 0.8-1.4 cm after surgery (1.2±0.2), and the distance from mid-clavicle to inframammary fold was shortened by 1.0-1.6 cm (1.3±0.4), and the differences were statistically significant as compared with the values before surgery ( t=31.17, P<0.05; t=33.78, P<0.05). After surgery, the change in the distance from nipple to sternal was 0.1-0.3 cm (0.16±0.10), and the change in the distance from sternal notch to nipple was 0-0.2 cm (0.12±0.10), and the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:With the advantages of simple operation, little trauma and no additional incision, the " short distance and multi-stage" buried-guiding suture method in the surgery of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty is worthy of clinical application.
