As a traditional Chinese medicinal herb for pacifying the liver and extinguishing wind， Gastrodiae Rhizoma contains main active ingredients such as gastrodin， gastrodia polysaccharides and gastrodigenin. It exerts the effects of extinguishing wind and relieving convulsions， calming liver yang， dispelling wind and unblocking collaterals， which is highly consistent with the traditional Chinese medicine pathogenesis of hypertension. This paper systematically reviews the pharmacological effects and molecular mechanisms of active ingredients of Gastrodiae Rhizoma， herb pair compatibility， and classic prescriptions in hypertension. It is found that Gastrodiae Rhizoma and its active ingredients can collaboratively exert antihypertensive effects by regulating hemodynamics， oxidative stress， inflammatory response and other pathways， alleviate hypertensive vascular injury， and ameliorate damage to target organs including the heart， brain and kidney induced by hypertension. Compatibility of Gastrodiae Rhizoma with medicinal materials such as Uncaria， Chuanxiong， and Danshen produces remarkable synergistic efficacy against hypertension. Classic prescriptions containing Gastrodiae Rhizoma represented by Tianma gouteng decoction and Banxia baizhu tianma decoction can inhibit inflammation， resist oxidation， and protect vascular endothelium， so as to ameliorate hypertensive vascular injury and lower blood pressure.

In the context of continuously deepening medical and health system reforms and comprehensively promoting the "Healthy China" strategy, Henan Provincial People's Hospital has established a regional collaborative and vertically integrated critical care service structure and network. This initiative aims to enhance information empowerment, strengthen regional collaboration, improve the insufficient primary medical services, and ensure timely and effective treatment for critically ill patients. By establishing a comprehensive dispatch service platform for regional collaborative critical care, building a "top-down" remote medical collaboration network, and forming a cross-regional specialty alliance for critical care, the hospital has improved the efficiency of medical services and enhanced regional capabilities for treating critically ill patients. Simultaneously, for critically serious patients and those with complex diseases at primary medical institutions, a one-stop consultation and referral service has been implemented. This service adopts a "three specialists" approach and a multidisciplinary consultation mechanism within the hospital, constructs a multi-dimensional critical care transfer mode integrating air, ground, and the internet, creates a regional collaborative rescue mode, and implements full-cycle treatment for critically serious patients. The comprehensive, flexible, and efficient service pathway for regional collaborative critical care established by this system ensures timely and safe treatment for critically ill patients, promotes the distribution of high-quality medical resources, and effectively addresses issues such as uneven distribution of high-quality medical resources and varying levels of critical care capabilities. It has facilitated the formation of a new tiered diagnosis and treatment order characterized by "first diagnosis at the primary level, two-way referral, separate treatment for acute and chronic diseases, and vertical integration". This approach has enhanced the diagnostic and comprehensive service capabilities of primary medical institutions. Currently, by strengthening information empowerment and sharing, creating a full-process critical care diagnosis and treatment model, providing medical assistance and cultivating primary-level critical care talent, and promoting appropriate technologies, the hospital has gradually overcome challenges such as barriers to information exchange and sharing between hospitals, overloaded critical care teams, high pressure on patient reception and transfer, and limited critical care capabilities at primary medical institutions. This article summarizes the construction and practical application of this regionally coordinated critical care system, aiming to provide a reference for the management of critical care treatment.

Oral submucous fibrosis(OSF)is a chronic and inflammatory mucosal disease caused by betel quid chewing,which belongs to oral potentially malignant disorders.Abnormal fibroblast differentiation leading to disordered collagen metabolism is the core process underlying OSF development.The epithelium,which is the first line of defense against the external environment,can convert external signals into pathological signals and participate in the remodeling of the fibrotic microenvironment.However,the specific mechanisms by which the epithelium drives fibroblast differentiation remain unclear.In this study,we found that Arecoline-exposed epithelium communicated with the fibrotic microenvironment by secreting exosomes.MiR-17-5p was encapsulated in epithelial cell-derived exosomes and absorbed by fibroblasts,where it promoted cell secretion,contraction,migration and fibrogenic marker(α-SMA and collagen type I)expression.The underlying molecular mechanism involved miR-17-5p targeting Smad7 and suppressing the degradation of TGF-β receptor 1(TGFBR1)through the E3 ubiquitination ligase WWP1,thus facilitating downstream TGF-β pathway signaling.Treatment of fibroblasts with an inhibitor of miR-17-5p reversed the contraction and migration phenotypes induced by epithelial-derived exosomes.Exosomal miR-17-5p was confirmed to function as a key regulator of the phenotypic transformation of fibroblasts.In conclusion,we demonstrated that Arecoline triggers aberrant epithelium-fibroblast crosstalk and identified that epithelial cell-derived miR-17-5p mediates fibroblast differentiation through the classical TGF-β fibrotic pathway,which provided a new perspective and strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of OSF.

Objective:To analyze the contagiousness and secondary attack rate of 2019 novel coronavirus in cluster epidemics in Guangzhou and provide evidence for the prevention and control of COVID-19.Methods:All the individuals identified to be infected with 2019-nCoV in Guangzhou, including confirmed cases and asymptomatic cases, were included and classified as imported cases and local cases. The first case of each cluster epidemic was defined as index case, and the number of subsequent infections was calculated to evaluate the contagiousness and secondary attack rate of 2019 novel coronavirus in the shortest incubation period of 1-3 days.Results:As of 18 February, 2020, a total of 349 cases of 2019-nCoV infection, including 339 confirmed cases (97.13 %) and 10 asymptomatic cases (2.87 %) were reported in Guangzhou. There were 68 clusters involving 217 2019-nCoV infection cases (210 confirmed cases and 7 asymptomatic cases). The median number of subsequent infections caused by an index case in a cluster epidemic was 3, among which 2 were confirmed cases and 1 was asymptomatic cases, respectively. The average number of contagiousness was 2.18 in shorted incubation period of 1-3 days (The average number of infected cases were 2.18 cases by the index case in a cluster epidemic), the average infection number in family members was 1.86, and the infection ratio of family member transmission was 85.32 % (1.86/2.18). The secondary attack rate in close contacts with shortest incubation period of 1-3 days was 17.12 %-18.99 %, the secondary attack rate in family members was 46.11 %-49.56 %. Conclusions:The cluster epidemic of COVID-19 in Guangzhou mainly occurred in families, the contagiousness was high. It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control to reduce the community transmission of COVID-19.

BACKGROUND:Placenta is a valuable source of mesenchymal stem cels for stem cel therapy and future application in the field of regenerative medicine. However, conventional methods cannot acquire a large amount of purified human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels. Here, we present a new method for isolating human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels suitable for banking strategies and for future clinical applications. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biological characteristics of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels cultured by tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion. METHODS: Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels were obtained from human placenta by tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion method. Immunophenotype was analyzed by flow cytometry. Growth curve was determined by MTT assay, and differentiation ability was evaluated byin vitro adipogenic, osteogenic and chondrogenic induction as wel. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels could be passaged stablyin vitro. Furthermore, the cels expressed CD73, CD90, CD105, but were negative for the markers of CD11b, CD19, CD34, CD45, and HLA-DR. Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels proliferated actively and began to grow logarithmicaly at days 3-5 folowed by a plateau period at day 6. In addition, the isolated cels could be induced into adipocytes, osteocytes, chondrocytesin vitro. In a word, the results of this study demonstrated that the tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion method is an efficient method for obtaining a large amount of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels that can be stably cultured in vitro and have strong proliferative ability.

Objective To establish an aging model of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and to investigate aging related biological mechanism for the purpose of studying the senesence of MSCs .Methods MSCs were separated and purified from human placenta, and the cells of the third passage(P3-MSCs) were cultured in the medium for 2 hours, then 100,200 and 300 μmol/L hydrogen peroxide ( H2 O2 ) was added to the cells for 2 hours to establish the MSCs aging model in vitro. Biological characteristics of aging MSCs were evaluated by cell cycle assay and senescence associated β-galactosidase staining.The expression of p16,p21 and p53 genes was further measured using quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR).Re-sults Compared with the control , the number of MSCs treated with 200μmol/L H2 O2 for 2 hours was significantly decreased and the cells displayed less adipogenic ,osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation .Moreover ,after exposure to 200 μmol/L H2 O2 , the majority of the cells were in the G 0/G1 phase as showed by cell cycle analysis .The percentage of senescence-associated β-galactosidase-positive cells was increased , and the expression of p 16 , p21 and p53 mRNA and protein was significantly increased.Conclusion The results of this study has demonstrated that the H 2 O2 (200 μmol/L) can be used to establish the aging model of MSCs in vitro, and the cellular phenotypic alteration may attribute to the cell cycle associated gene expression (p16, p21, and p53).
