OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of superoxide dismutase (SOD) administration on the malignant behavior of PLC/PRF/5 liver cancer cells, and analyze the correlation between SOD and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) expression, to provide new ideas for targeting AFP with SOD as a drug for hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS Normal human liver cells L-02, AFP- negative human liver cancer cells HLE, and AFP-positive human liver cancer cells PLC/PRF/5 were used as experimental cells. Western blot assay and SOD activity detection kit were used to detect the expression of AFP, SOD and activity of SOD in cells before and after changing AFP expression; the effects of different concentrations of SOD [0 (control), 0.188, 0.375, 0.75, 1.5, 3 U/mL] administration on the migration and proliferation of PLC/PRF/5 cells were detected using cell scratch assay and CCK-8 assay. The effects of SOD overexpression on the expression of malignant biological behavior-related proteins AFP and sarcoma virus protein (Src) in PLC/PRF/5 cells were detected using Western blot. RESULTS Compared with L-02 group and HLE group, the expression levels of SOD1 and SOD2, and SOD activity in PLC/PRF/5 cells were significantly reduced (P<0.05). After down-regulating AFP expression in PLC/PRF/ 5 cells, compared with PLC/PRF/5 group, the expression levels of SOD1 and SOD2, as well as SOD activity, were significantly increased in the PLC/PRF/5-shAFP group (low-expression) (P<0.05). After 48 hours of SOD treatment, compared with control group, the scratch healing rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells in the 0.375, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 U/mL SOD groups were significantly reduced (P<0.05); after 72 hours of SOD treatment, compared with control group, the scratch healing rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells in the 0.375, 0.75, and 1.5 U/mL SOD groups were significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with control group, proliferation rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells were significantly reduced in the 0.375, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 U/mL SOD groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the PLC/PRF/5 group before up-regulating SOD1 and SOD2 expression, the expression levels of AFP and Src in the PLC/PRF/5-oeSOD1 and PLC/PRF/5-oeSOD2 groups (over-expression) after up-regulating SOD1 and SOD2 expression were significantly reduced (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS A certain concentration of SOD can inhibit malignant behavior such as migration and proliferation of PLC/PRF/5 cells, and the expression level and activity of SOD are negatively correlated with AFP.

Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide and is one of the leading causes of death in China.Insulin resistance(IR)is closely associated with the development and progression of stroke,and in recent years,triglyceride-glucose index(TyG index)has been proposed as a new indicator of IR,which combines blood lipids and blood glucose.At present,more and more studies in China and globally have shown that TyG index plays an important role in the development and progression of stroke,and it is of great importance to investigate the internal association between TyG in-dex and stroke,so as to achieve the early prevention,treatment,and follow-up of stroke.

Acute and critical illnesses pose a serious threat to people's lives and health,causing great difficulties for doctors to rescue them.As an important part of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)clinical medicine,emergency medicine of TCM has formed its own unique and complete theoretical system and accumulated rich clinical experience in the long-term struggle against diseases by the unremitting efforts of generations of doctors.As a well-known contemporary expert in TCM clinical emergency treatment,Professor Liu Qingquan has been deeply involved in the front line of clinical work,and creatively proposed the theory of three states and three principles differentiation,providing a rapid and effective core idea for the treatment of contemporary acute and critical patients with TCM.

Objective:Clarify the correlation between the Centralized Drug Volume-based Purchasing Policy,changes in physical&mental health status,and health inequalities among the older adults,as well as exploring whether this correlation differs between urban and rural areas so as to determine the role played by the total cost of healthcare.Methods:Based on CFPS 2018 and 2020,DID and PSM-DID were used to verify the impact of the Centralized Drug Volume-based Purchasing Policy on physical&mental health status and health inequalities of the elderly in urban and rural China.Three-step method and Sobel test were used to verify the mediating effect of total medical costs.Results:The pilot effect of the Centralized Drug Volume-based Purchasing Policy was first realized among the urban elderly population,promoting their physical and mental health through the intermediary mechanism of reducing the total medical costs,but for the time being did not show a significant correlation with health inequalities within this group.Among the rural elderly population,none of the three dependent variables was significant(P>0.1).Conclusion:The underlying logic of the Centralized Drug Volume-based Purchasing Policy is right,but its future reform should focus on the rural elderly group,and consider the fairness of the effect within the group and between urban and rural areas,so as to improve the health level of the whole society in the longer term.
