[摘 要] 目的:探讨胰岛素样生长因子2 mRNA结合蛋白3(IGF2BP3)、尿苷二磷酸-葡萄糖醛酸脱羧酶1(UXS1)在肝细胞癌(HCC)中的表达特征、预后价值及两者协同作用的分子机制。方法:整合UALCAN、cBioPortal、ENCORI、TISCH2、GDSC等公共数据库的转录组数据,对IGF2BP3和UXS1进行表达、预后评估、功能富集及药物敏感性等分析。收集GEO数据库的单细胞RNA测序(scRNA-seq)数据,分析细胞通信、单细胞代谢评分,系统解析IGF2BP3-UXS1轴在HCC中的具体作用。结果:IGF2BP3、UXS1在HCC组织中均显著高表达,且高表达患者总生存期显著缩短(均P < 0.05)。采用CRISPP技术敲除IGF2BP3或UXS1后,多种HCC细胞的增殖能力受到明显抑制。scRNA-seq分析揭示了IGF2BP3、UXS1在肝细胞等细胞类型中的广泛表达分布,前者在细胞分化晚期上调,后者则在细胞分化早、中期高表达。IGF2BP3、UXS1高表达组均显著激活了MIF通路,同时IGF2BP3的高表达削弱了成纤维细胞的相互作用,而UXS1的高表达则增强了T细胞的信号转导功能。IGF2BP3与UXS1在表达相关性中存在显著的正相关(r = 0.432,P < 0.05)。沉默IGF2BP3结合位点会导致UXS1表达水平变化(F = 0.333)。功能富集分析提示,IGF2BP3与UXS1协同调控能量代谢、蛋白质翻译等生物学过程。在IGF2BP3或UXS1高表达的细胞亚群中,发现两者与多个糖代谢相关通路存在显著关联。IGF2BP3、UXS1高表达的患者对优普色替等药物表现出显著的敏感性,还对药物那维托克等表现出显著的耐药性。结论: IGF2BP3、UXS1在HCC中高表达,两者通过调控糖代谢重编程的协同作用促进HCC恶性生物学行为。

Objective To investigate the effect of mulberry anthocyanin on the morphology and func-tion of vascular endothelial cells(VEC)and its possible mechanism at the level of autophagy.Methods VEC were cultured in vitro and divided into 5.5/0 mmol/L control group,11/0.125,22/0.250,33/0.500,44/1.000,55/2.000 mmol/L high glucose/high fat groups.The cell functional levels and autophage levels in each group were detected.The optimal high glucose/high lipid concentration was selected as the VEC function inju-ry model group.10,25,50 μmol/L mulberry anthocyanins were added into the model group for processing and divided into the low,middle and high concentrations of mulberry anthocyanin groups.The effects of mulberry anthocyanin on the morphology,function and autophagy of VEC in high sugar and high fat stress were ob-served.Then the autophagy regulator(rapamycin)was added to study its action mechanism.HE staining was used to observe the number and morphology of cells,the CCK-8 assay was used to detect the viability of VEC,the flow cytometry was used to detect the level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in VEC,the Western blot was used to detect the expression level of Beclin-1 and p62 proteins in VEC,and the kit method was used to detect the level of nitric oxide(NO)and endothelin-1(ET-1)in VEC.Results Compared with the control group,the number and morphology of cells in the middle and high concentrations of high glucose/high fat groups were changed,the cell viability,p62,NO levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05),while the ROS,ET-1,and Beclin-1 expression levels were increased significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the number of cells in the mulberry anthocyanin groups was increased,morphology was improved,the cellular viability,p62 and No levels were significantly increased,and ROS,Beclin-1 and ET-1 levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the high concentration mulberry anthocyanin group,the cells number was decreased af-ter adding rapamycin,the morphology changed to be irregular,the NO level was decreased,and the ET level was increased(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the p-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)and p-protein kinase B(Akt)relative expression levels in the model group were significantly decreased(P<0.05);compared with the model group,the p-PI3K and p-Akt relative expression levels in the high concentration mulberry anthocyanin group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Mulberry anthocyanin could in-hibit autophagy by activating the PI3K/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)signaling pathway and improve the morphology and function of VEC under high glucose and lipid stress.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of Jingangteng capsules in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS Thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into normal group and modeling group. The modeling group was fed a high-fat diet to establish a NAFLD model. The successfully modeled rats were then randomly divided into model group, atorvastatin group[positive control, 2 mg/(kg·d)], and Jingangteng capsules low- and high-dose groups [0.63 and 2.52 mg/(kg·d)], with 6 rats in each group. The pathological changes of the liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and oil red O staining. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to determine the serum levels of triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-18. 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing and metabolomics techniques were applied to explore the effects of Jingangteng capsules on gut microbiota and metabolisms in NAFLD rats. Based on the E-mail:591146765@qq.com metabolomics results, Western blot analysis was performed to detect proteins related to the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB)/NOD-like receptor family protein 3 (NLRP3) signaling pathway in the livers of NAFLD rats. RESULTS The experimental results showed that Jingangteng capsules could significantly reduce the serum levels of TG, TC, LDL-C, AST, ALT, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, while increased the level of HDL-C, and alleviated the hepatic cellular steatosis and inflammatory infiltration in NAFLD rats. They could regulate the gut microbiota disorders in NAFLD rats, significantly increased the relative abundance of Romboutsia and Oscillospira, and significantly decreased the relative abundance of Blautia (P<0.05). They also regulated metabolic disorders primarily by affecting secondary bile acid biosynthesis, fatty acid degradation, O-antigen nucleotide sugar biosynthesis, etc. Results of Western blot assay showed that they significantly reduced the phosphorylation levels of NF-κB p65 and NF-κB inhibitor α, and the protein expression levels of NLRP3, caspase-1 and ASC (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Jingangteng capsules could improve inflammation, lipid accumulation and liver injury in NAFLD rats, regulate the disorders of gut microbiota and metabolisms, and inhibit NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. Their therapeutic effects against NAFLD are mediated through the inhibition of the NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of disability degree in elderly hospitalized patients with disability and the correlations of disability with malnutrition and sarcopenia. Methods A total of 234 elderly hospitalized patients with disability were selected as study subjects. The Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale, Mini-nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF), and Sarcopenia Five-item Criteria with calf circumference (SARC-CalF) were used to investigate the status of disability, nutrition, and sarcopenia in patients. The clinical characteristics of different types of patients were compared, and correlations of disability with malnutrition and sarcopenia were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of the degree of disability in patients. Results Of the 234 patients, 46.58%(109/234) had mild disability, 45.30%(106/234) had moderate disability, and 8.12%(19/234) had severe disability. The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the degree of disability (ADL score) in elderly hospitalized patients with disability was significantly correlated with the degree of malnutrition (MNA-SF score) and sarcopenia (SARC-CalF score) (
