Objective To investigate the effect of sal-like gene 2(Sall2)gene overexpression on the progression of disease in human superoxide dismutase 1(hSOD1)-G93A mutant amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)transgenic mice,with the aim of identifying potential therapeutic targets for ALS gene therapy.Methods Differential Sall2 gene were screened through bioinformatics analysis.Forty-eight ALS transgenic mice were selected for this study.AAV-PHP.eB-Sall2 adeno-associated virus with a neuron-specific promoter,human synapsin I(hSyn),was constructed and administered via tail vein injection to six-week-old mice.In parallel,the same litter of ALS mice received an injection of AAV-PHP.eB-GFP.The staining of Sall2 and neuron-specific nuclear protein(NeuN)/GFAP in the spinal cord and cerebral cortex of mice were detected through immunofluorescent double-label staining technology.The survival period,weight changes,exercise ability,and electromyographic changes of the gastrocnemius muscle were detected.The morphological changes in the spinal cord anterior horn neurons were detected through Nissl staining.The effect of Sall2 gene overexpression on the expression of the cell cycle protein E1(cyclin E1)was investigated through Western blotting.Results Bioinformatics analysis showed out that Sall2 was differentially expressed in ALS mice.Compared with ALS mice in the control group,the Sall2 protein expression of ALS mice in the overexpressing Sall2 gene group increased in both the spinal cord and cerebral cortex,and the Sall2 integral absorbance values of Sall2+/NeuN+double-positive cells were higher.The survival time of ALS mice in the Sall2 gene overexpressing group was prolonged,the rate of weight loss was slowed down,the performance in the rotarod and inverted grid tests was improved with longer times,and the positive sharp waves and fibrillation potentials in the gastrocnemius electromyography were reduced.The number of Nissl bodies labeled neurons increased in the spinal cord anterior horn of the Sall2 gene overexpressing mice,and the condition of neuronal damage was improved.Overexpression of the Sall2 gene also reduced the expression of cyclin E1 in both the spinal cord and cerebral cortex of ALS transgenic mice.Conclusion Overexpression of the Sall2 gene can delay disease progression and improve motor performance in ALS transgenic mice,affecting the expression of cyclin E1,thus exerting a therapeutic effect on these mice.

Objective To explore the role of SLIT-ROBO Rho GTPase-activating protein 2(srGAP2)in spinal motor neuron degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS).Methods Applied bioinformatics analysis to investigate the expression changes of srGAP2 in the spinal cord of human superoxide dismutase 1(hSOD1)mutant ALS transgenic mice.hSOD1 G93A mutant ALS transgenic mice were selected for animal experimental validation,with littermate wild type(WT)mice serving as the control group.A total of 36 pairs were divided into four groups,namely the pre-onset stage,early-onset stage,mid-onset stage,and late-onset stage.The expression changes and cellular localization of srGAP2 in the spinal cord of ALS mice were detected by Real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunofluorescent double-label staining.The hSOD1G93A mutant NSC34 motor neuron-like cell model was established,and in vitro experiments were carried out to detect the changes in srGAP2 expression,and the effects of srGAP2 over-expression on the viability of hSOD1G93A mutant NSC34 cells and the growth of cell protrusions.Results Bioinformatics analysis revealed abnormally low expression of srGAP2 in the spinal cord of hSOD1 mutant ALS mice.Animal experiments verified that compared with the WT mice,the expression of srGAP2 was reduced at both mRNA level and protein level in the spinal cord of hSOD1G93A mutant ALS transgenic mice at early-onset,mid-onset and late-onset stages.Compared with the WT mice,srGAP2 integral absorbance(IA)values in srGAP2+/NeuN+double-positive cells in the anterior horn of the spinal cord of hSOD1G93A mutant ALS transgenic mice were lower,srGAP2 IA values in srGAP2+/GFAP+double-positive cells were higher;Compared with the hSOD1WT NSC34 cells,the expression of srGAP2 was reduced at both mRNA level and protein level in hSOD1G93A mutant NSC34 cells.Over-expression of srGAP2 elevated the viability of hSOD1G93A mutant NSC34 cells,and up-regulated the expression level of synapse-related protein β Ⅲ-tubulin and growth associated protein 43(GAP43).Conclusion Low expression of srGAP2 is closely associated with the progression of ALS,while over-expression of srGAP2 can promote outgrowth of cell protrusions and exert a protective effect on spinal motor neurons in ALS.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Objective:To investigate the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) in elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted on 78 elderly patients with hip fracture admitted to the Seventh Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital between October 2023 and September 2024. The patients were divided into RIPC group and non-RIPC group using a random number table. They were treated with closed reduction internal fixation, open reduction internal fixation, or hip arthroplasty for hip fracture under regional anesthesia. The RIPC group received RIPC intervention on the day before surgery and after entering the operating room on the day of surgery (3 cycles of 5-minute upper limb exsanguination followed by 5-minute reperfusion using an inflatable tourniquet cuff). The non-RIPC group received the same perioperative management as the RIPC group except RIPC. Plasma high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) concentrations were measured at admission, immediately after surgery, on the morning of the first postoperative day, and on the morning of the third postoperative day and MINS incidence was calculated based on the hs-cTnI concentrations. The incidence of MINS within 3 days postoperatively and the intraoperative complications were compared in the overall cohort and in age-stratified groups (<80 years, ≥80 years). The local adverse reactions at the RIPC application sites were observed within 3 days after surgery.Results:Among the 78 elderly patients with hip fracture, including 21 males and 57 females, aged 60-99 years [79.5(70.0, 87.0)years], 40 were assigned to the RIPC group and 38 to the non-RIPC group. No significant difference was found in the general data of the two groups. There was no significant difference in the overall MINS incidence between the two groups ( P>0.05). In the patients aged <80 years, no MINS incidence was found (0/21) in the RIPC group, compared with 22% (4/18) in the non-RIPC group ( P<0.05), while in the patients aged ≥80 years, no significant difference in MINS incidence was observed between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in intraoperative complication rates in the overall cohort, patients aged <80 years, or patients aged ≥80 years ( P>0.05). None of the patients had local adverse reactions at the RIPC application sites. Conclusion:For elderly patients with hip fracture who received regional anesthesia, RIPC can significantly reduce the incidence of MINS in patients aged <80 years, but exerts no significant effect on MINS incidence in the overall cohort or in patients aged ≥80 years.

Objective:The aim of this study is to investigate the main active substances of Qilin pills by high performance liq-uid chromatogre-electrostatic field orbitrap mass spectrometry(HPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS),and explore the mechanism of its action in the treatment of asthenozoospermia by combining network pharmacology and molecular docking.Methods:(1)Qilin pills were quantita-tively and qualitatively analyzed by HPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS.(2)The top 100 compounds in Qilin pills were screened by content analy-sis and SwissADME,and their targets were predicted.The asthenozoospermia targets were searched through the database.And a"pro-tein-protein interaction"(PPI)network was constructed.KEGG and GO analysis was performed using the DAVID database.And a"drug-target-pathway"network was constructed.(3)SailVina was used for molecular docking.Results:(1)A total of 1 275 known components were found and ranked in Qilin pills by HPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS analysis.(2)The top 100 compounds in Qilin pills predicted a total of 1 053 targets and 184 potential therapeutic targets for asthenozoospermia.KEGG pathway analysis and GO analysis showed that the treatment of asthenozoospermia by Qilin pills may be related to the steroid hormone synthesis pathway,the response to steroid hormones,the chromosomal region of cells and the activity of steroid hydroxylase.The mechanism of Qilin pills in treating as-thenozoospermia may be related to regulating the synthesis,metabolism and reaction process of sex hormone in the body.(3)The mo-lecular docking results of its key targets(CYP19A1,ESR1,HSP90AA1,p53,HIF1α and BCL2)showed that the key active ingredi-ents M030,M039,M043,M050,M055 and M073 of Qilin pills had spontaneous binding.It had a binding energy of less than-5 kJ/mol.Conclusion:The material basis of Qilin pills has been explored by this study.And the mechanism of action of Qilin pills in the treatment of asthenozoospermia is highly bound to the expression and response process of steroid hormones,which provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of Qilin pills.

Sleep deprivation has been shown to exacerbate pain sensitivity and may contribute to the onset of chronic pain, yet the precise neural mechanisms underlying this association remain elusive. In our study, we explored the contribution of cholinergic neurons within the medial habenula (MHb) to hyperalgesia induced by sleep deprivation in rats. Our findings indicate that the activity of MHb cholinergic neurons diminishes during sleep deprivation and that chemogenetic stimulation of these neurons can mitigate the results. Interestingly, we did not find a direct response of MHb cholinergic neurons to pain stimulation. Further investigation identified the interpeduncular nucleus (IPN) and the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) as key players in the pro-nociceptive effect of sleep deprivation. Stimulating the pathways connecting the MHb to the IPN and PVT alleviated the hyperalgesia. These results underscore the important role of MHb cholinergic neurons in modulating pain sensitivity linked to sleep deprivation, highlighting potential neural targets for mitigating sleep deprivation-induced hyperalgesia.
