[摘 要] 目的：探讨高良姜素（Gal）调控AMPK/mTOR/ULK1信号通路对胃癌细胞凋亡和自噬的影响及其机制。方法：将胃癌NCI-N87细胞分为对照组、多索吗啡（DM）组、Gal低剂量（Gal-L）组、Gal高剂量（Gal-H）组、Gal-H + DM组。采用MTT法、流式细胞术、划痕愈合实验和Transwell实验分别检测各组细胞的增殖、凋亡、迁移和侵袭能力，WB法检测PCNA、C-caspase-3、免疫逃逸相关蛋白（B7H1）、EMT和AMPK/mTOR/ULK1信号通路蛋白的表达水平。建立裸鼠NCI-N87细胞移植瘤模型，观察Gal和5-FU对移植瘤的抑制效果。结果：与对照组比较，DM组NCI-N87细胞增殖活性、划痕愈合率和侵袭细胞数、N-cadherin、vimentin、PCNA、B7H1、p62和p-mTOR/mTOR蛋白表达均显著升高（均P < 0.05），细胞凋亡率、C-caspase-3、E-cadherin、LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ、p-AMPK/AMPK和p-ULK1/ULK1蛋白表达均显著降低（均P < 0.05）；Gal-L组和Gal-H组NCI-N87细胞的增殖活性、划痕愈合率和侵袭细胞数、N-cadherin、vimentin、PCNA、B7H1、p62和p-mTOR/mTOR蛋白表达均显著降低（均P < 0.05），细胞凋亡率、C-caspase-3、E-cadherin、LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ、p-AMPK/AMPK和p-ULK1/ULK1蛋白表达均显著升高（均P < 0.05）；DM可部分逆转Gal对NCI-N87细胞恶性生物学行为的抑制作用（P < 0.05）；与对照组比较，Gal组和5-FU组裸鼠移植瘤体积和质量均显著降低，肿瘤组织细胞凋亡率显著升高（P < 0.05）。结论：Gal可促进胃癌NCI-N87细胞自噬和凋亡，抑制其增殖、迁移和侵袭，可能与激活AMPK/mTOR/ULK1信号通路有关。

Objective To analyze the epidemiological patterns and pathogens of clusters of diarrhea in Xicheng Distract , Beijing during 2017-2022 , in order to update the policy of prevention. Mehods Between January 2017 and December 2022, stool samples of patients and partly cooks in clusters of diarrhea were collected and tested by Real-time PCR for Rotavirus, Norovirus, Adenovirus, Sapovirus and Astrovirus. Part of ORF1/ORF2 from Norovirus positive samples were amplified using RT-PCR. PCR products were sequenced and the genetypes were determined. Results Four hundreds and one clusters of diarrheas were reported. Among them , 369 were reported in kindergartens, primary schools and secondary schools. The morbidities were 4.14, 2.13 and 0.69 per thousand, respectively. Seventy four cooks in 15 clusters of diarrhea were Norovirus positive. The rate was 8.67%. Among these pathogens, Norovirus had the largest proportion , but the trend was declining. At least three kinds of genetype of GⅡ Norovirus were detected every year. Conclusion Clusters of diarrhea mainly occurred in kindergartens, primary schools and secondary schools. Result from the increasing proportions of unknown-cause clusters of diarrhea, the testing methods and scopes of pathogens should be extended. Diverse genetypes of Norovirus coexist and alternate in Beijing. So appearance of new genetypes and recombination of existed ones of Norovirus should be closely concerned.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and gene variant characteristics of PCDH19 gene related epilepsy, and improve the ability of clinicians in early disease identification. Methods:The clinical data of 3 PCDH19 gene related epilepsy patients admitted to Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from October 2018 to August 2023 diagnosed by gene detection were reviewed and analyzed. Results:All the patients are female, and the onset age of seizure ranged in their infancy. Seizures in clusters and fever sensitivity were observed in all patients, and were very hard to control by single-drug treatment. Proband 1 was seizure-free after 2 kinds of anti-epileptic drug treatment, but with mild degree of intellectual disability. Proband 2 had refractory epilepsy with severe degree of intellectual disability. Proband 3 was seizure-free after 2 kinds of anti-epileptic drug treatment and without intellectual disability. In the first family, the proband carried heterozygous c.369C>G variant in the PCDH19 gene which was identified as de novo after parental validation. In the second family, the proband carried c.1652T>A variant inherited from her mother. In the third family, the proband carried c.278G>A variant inherited from her father. The 3 mutations had not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database. Conclusions:PCDH19 gene related epilepsy is one special kind of X-linked inherited epilepsy syndrome characterized by seizures in clusters and sensitivity to fever. And gene detection can help with early diagnosis and make rational clinical strategies in time. The variants c.369C>G, c.1652T>A and c.278G>A have enriched the gene variant spectrum of PCDH19.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of transvaginal contrastenhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in differentiating benign from malignant endometrial lesions and assessing the extent of myometrial invasion. Methods: A total of 70 patients who underwent surgery for endometrial lesions at the authors’ hospital were selected. Transvaginal ultrasound examination and CEUS were performed for quantitative and qualitative analysis. Based on the CEUS results, an International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) disease grade was assigned and compared with pathological findings. Results: Postmenopausal vaginal bleeding is a key clinical manifestation of endometrial carcinoma. Among the patients with endometrial carcinoma, compared with normal myometrium, the lesion areas exhibited a greater rate of rise (defined as enhanced intensity divided by enhancement time) and a shorter half-clearance time (P<0.05). These findings suggest that in endometrial carcinoma, the contrast agent displays a "fast-in/fast-out/hyperenhancement" perfusion pattern. In contrast, the characteristic perfusion pattern for benign endometrial lesions is low enhancement (P<0.05). The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS in detecting myometrial invasion was 88% (22 of 25 cases). Conclusion Transvaginal CEUS is a practical and effective diagnostic imaging method for distinguishing between benign and malignant endometrial lesions. It can also be used to evaluate the depth of myometrial invasion in patients with early-stage endometrial carcinoma.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect of acupuncture at Neiguan point(PC6),acupuncture on the upper limbs and traditional medication for motion sickness.Methods Totally 30 male KM mice were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=6):blank control group,model group(acceleration exposure),acupuncture PC6 group(acupuncture at PC6+acceleration exposure),acupuncture upper limbs group(acupuncture of the arm except PC6+acceleration exposure)and traditional medicine group(difenidol administered intragastrically+acceleration exposure).The motion sickness index(MSI)and the serum levels of serotonin(5-HT),adrenaline,glucagon,insulin and blood glucose were detected.Results MSI and serum 5-HT,adrenaline,glucagon,insulin and blood glucose levels in the model group were significantly higher than those in the blank control group(P<0.05).Compared with those in the model group,MSI and 5-HT,adrenaline,glucagon and blood glucose levels were decreased in the acupuncture PC6 group and traditional medicine group(P<0.05),while insulin level was not significantly changed(P>0.05).The adrenaline level in the traditional medicine group was lower than that in the acupuncture PC6 group(P<0.05).The acupuncture upper limbs group had lower MSI and higher insulin level than the model group(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in the levels of 5-HT,adrenaline,glucagon or blood glucose between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Both difenidol and acupuncture at PC6 can effectively relieve motion sickness.
