Objective :
To investigate the expression and interaction of activating transcription factor 3(ATF3) and smad family member 4(Smad4) in pterygium.
Methods:
In this study, two sets of data GSE51995 and GSE2513 in NCBI database were analyzed by bioinformatics methods to screen out the key difference-expressed gene ATF3 in pterygium when normal conjunctiva was used as the control. The differential genes identified by bioinformatics analysis were further detected by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR). Finally, the literatures were searched and The Gene Transcription Regulation Database(GTRD) was used to predict whether there was a target gene Smad4 that might bind to the target gene. The expression of Smad4 in normal conjunctival and pterygium tissues was verified by RT-qPCR, and the interaction between the target protein ATF3 and Smad4 in the pterygium was investigated through Co-Immunoprecipitation(Co-IP).
Results :
The results of bioinformatics a- nalysis showed that compared with normal conjunctival tissue , there was significantly different expression of ATF3 gene in pterygium tissue (P < 0. 05) . RT-qPCR confirmed that ATF3 was less expressed in pterygium tissue than normal conjunctival tissue (P < 0. 001) . Genomic data from the GTRD database revealed that Smad4 contains two ATF3 binding motifs , suggesting functional interaction potential . Compared with normal conjunctiva , RT-qPCR re- vealed Smad4 downregulation in pterygium tissues (P < 0. 01) ; Co-IP demonstrated enhanced interaction between Smad4 and ATF3 in pterygium tissues following immunoprecipitation with anti-ATF3 antibodies (P < 0. 05) .
Conclusion
ATF3 interacts with Smad4 in pterygium , and the low expression of both in pterygium tissues and their in- teraction may be associated with the pathogenesis of pterygium .

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of sequential administration of Dihuang Baoyuan granules (DHBY, the prescription for consolidating body resistance) and Fuling Yunhua granules (FLYH, the prescription for treating symptoms) on spontaneous type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in mice. MethodsAccording to the fasting blood glucose (FBG) level, 12-week-old db/db mice were randomized into six groups: model, DHBY (18.02 g·kg-1), FLYH (14.80 g·kg-1), sequential administration 1 (SEQ-1, DHBY 18.02 g·kg-1+FLYH 14.80 g·kg-1), sequential administration 2 (SEQ-2, FLYH 14.80 g·kg-1+DHBY 18.02 g·kg-1), and dapagliflozin (Dapa, 1.3 mg·kg-1). The m/m mice in the same litter were selected as the normal group. The mice were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage for 8 consecutive weeks. During the 8 weeks of drug administration and 2 weeks after withdrawal, the retinal thickness, FBG, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and insulin were determined, and histopathological changes of the pancreas, liver, kidney, and retina were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. ResultsCompared with the model group, SEQ-1 for 4 weeks lowered the FBG level (P<0.05), raised the insulin level, decreased the triglyceride (TG) level (P<0.05), increased the number of optic ganglion cells and diminished vacuolar degeneration of pancreatic islet and liver. SEQ-2 lowered FBG and HbA1c levels (P<0.05), rose the insulin level, increased the retinal thickness and the number of optic ganglion cells (P<0.05), and alleviated vacuolar degeneration of pancreatic islet and liver. Two weeks after drug withdrawal, Dapa tended to increase FBG and HbA1c compared with those at the time of drug withdrawal. However, the levels of FBG and HbA1c in the SEQ-2 group remained decreasing (P<0.05). ConclusionSEQ-1 and SEQ-2 can lower the blood glucose level and ameliorate diabetic retinopathy, and SEQ-2 outperformed DHBY and FLYH in lowering the blood glucose level. Moreover, SEQ-2 can maintain the blood glucose-lowering effect after drug withdrawal.

With the rapid development of modern technology, the deep integration of computer science and medicine has greatly propelled the field of the dental diagnostics field. Multimodal medical image registration refers to the fusion of information from various modalities of medical imaging. In other words, with the assistance of computer technology, the image data acquired from various radiological examinations undergo spatial registration and are merged to create a comprehensive new image, serving the purpose of computer-aided diagnosis. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) has complex anatomical structures, so there is a wide range of diseases associated with it. Traditional single-modal imaging methods can only provide partial anatomical information, which limits the comprehensive assessment and subsequently hinders the diagnosis and treatment of TMJ diseases. Multimodal medical image registration techniques, owing to their ability to provide comprehensive information, have been widely applied in the field of dentistry. This has greatly enhanced the efficiency of diagnosing and treating TMJ diseases. The article discusses the advancements in the application of multimodal medical image registration in the context of TMJ diseases.

AIM: To detect the expression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium tissues and healthy conjunctival tissues, and to explore the relationship between the expression of P53 and mTOR, and the relationship between the expression of P53 and mTOR and the important clinical features of pterygium.METHODS: The surgical specimens of 43 patients(43 eyes)who underwent pterygium excision and autologous conjunctival transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University from November 2022 to May 2023 were collected. Healthy conjunctiva group was selected from the healthy conjunctival tissue that originated from the temporal conjunctiva of 13 patients. Totally 10 pterygium specimens and 6 normal conjunctival specimens were selected and the qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of P53 and mTOR in pterygium and normal conjunctival tissues. Another 33 cases of pterygium and 7 cases of normal conjunctival tissues were collected and the expression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium and normal conjunctival tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. IPP6.0 software was used to calculate the average optical density, the correlation between the expression levels of P53 and mTOR, and the correlation between the expression levels of P53 and mTOR and the important clinical features of pterygium were analyzed.RESULTS: According to qPCR results, the mRNA expression levels of TP53 and mTOR in the pterygium group were significantly higher than those in the healthy conjunctiva group(all P<0.05). According to the immunohistochemical staining results, the expression levels of P53 and mTOR proteins in the pterygium group were significantly higher than those in the healthy conjunctiva group(P<0.05). The expression of P53 was positively correlated with the expression of mTOR(r=0.417, P<0.05). The expression of P53 in the group of outdoor activity time > 3 h was higher than that in the group of outdoor activity time ≤3 h(P<0.05). The expression of P53 in the group of pterygium head invasive limbal distance > 2 mm was higher than that in the group of pterygium head invasive limbal distance ≤2 mm(P<0.05). There was no difference in the expression of pterygium between the two groups of patients aged > 40 years and ≤40 years(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of mTOR between the groups of outdoor activity time > 3 h and ≤3 h, the group of pterygium head invasion distance > 2 mm and ≤2 mm, and the group of > 40 years old and ≤40 years old(all P>0.05). The expression of P53 was positively correlated with the duration of outdoor activities(r=0.484, P<0.01)and the distance of limbal invasion(r=0.479, P<0.01). The expression of mTOR was not correlated with age, duration of outdoor activities, and distance of limbus invasion(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The overexpression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium showed a positive correlation, suggesting that the abnormal expression of P53 and mTOR may play a role in the pathogenesis of pterygium, which provides an experimental basis for further exploring the pathogenesis of pterygium; the expression of P53 is positively correlated with the time of outdoor activities and the distance of pterygium invasion. The P53 plays a role in evaluating the severity of pterygium, and provides new ideas for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pterygium.
