Norepinephrine (NE) modulates synaptic transmission and long-term plasticity through distinct subtype adrenergic receptor (AR)-mediated-intracellular signaling cascades. However, the role of NE modulates glutamatergic long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) magnocellular neuroendocrine cells (MNCs) is unclear. We here investigate the effect of NE on high frequency stimulation (HFS)-induced glutamatergic LTP in rat hypothalamic PVN MNCs in vitro, by whole-cell patch-clamp recording, biocytin staining and pharmacological methods. Delivery of HFS induced glutamatergic LTP with a decrease in N2/N1 ratio in the PVN MNCs, which was enhanced by application of NE (100 nM).HFS-induced LTP was abolished by the blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) with D-APV, but it was rescued by the application of NE. NE failed to rescue HFS-induced LTP of MNCs in the presence of a selective β1-AR antagonist, CGP 20712. However, application of β1-AR agonist, dobutamine HCl rescued HFS-induced LTP of MNCs in the absence of NMDAR activity. In the absence of NMDAR activity, NE failed to rescue HFS-induced MNC LTP when protein kinase A (PKA) was inhibited by extracellular applying KT5720 or intracellular administration of PKI. These results indicate that NE activates β1-AR and triggers HFS to induce a novel glutamatergic LTP of hypothalamic PVN NMCs via the postsynaptic PKA signaling pathway in vitro in rats.

Objectives: This study aimed to present the Asia-Pacific consensus on long-term and sequential therapy for osteoporosis, offering evidence-based recommendations for the effective management of this chronic condition.The primary focus is on achieving optimal fracture prevention through a comprehensive, individualized approach. Methods: A panel of experts convened to develop consensus statements by synthesizing the current literature and leveraging clinical expertise. The review encompassed long-term anti-osteoporosis medication goals, first-line treatments for individuals at very high fracture risk, and the strategic integration of anabolic and anti resorptive agents in sequential therapy approaches. Results: The panelists reached a consensus on 12 statements. Key recommendations included advocating for anabolic agents as the first-line treatment for individuals at very high fracture risk and transitioning to anti resorptive agents following the completion of anabolic therapy. Anabolic therapy remains an option for in dividuals experiencing new fractures or persistent high fracture risk despite antiresorptive treatment. In cases of inadequate response, the consensus recommended considering a switch to more potent medications. The consensus also addressed the management of medication-related complications, proposing alternatives instead of discontinuation of treatment. Conclusions This consensus provides a comprehensive, cost-effective strategy for fracture prevention with an emphasis on shared decision-making and the incorporation of country-specific case management systems, such as fracture liaison services. It serves as a valuable guide for healthcare professionals in the Asia-Pacific region, contributing to the ongoing evolution of osteoporosis management.

Obesity is an important health problem in our society today, which can lead to the chronic low-grade inflammation state, to be an inducement for many chronic diseases such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. As a common oral chronic infectious disease, periodontitis is mainly characterized by gingival inflammation, periodontal pocket formation, alveolar bone resorption and tooth mobility. The ultimate goal of periodontitis treatment is to achieve periodontal tissue regeneration in the defect area. As a major risk factor for periodontitis, obesity can alter the periodontal inflammatory microenvironment in multiple ways, affecting the effects of periodontal tissue regeneration ultimately. Therefore, this paper will review the relationship between obesity and periodontal tissue regeneration, mechanism of obesity affecting periodontal tissue regeneration and the therapeutic strategies of periodontal tissue regeneration, providing new ideas for periodontal tissue regeneration treatment in obesity.

Objective:The aim of this study was to research the relationship between HPLC fingerprint and anti-inflammatory effect of Zhideke granules， and the substance basis of its anti-inflammatory effect was preliminary explored. Method:The fingerprint of 10 batches of Zhideke granules were determined by HPLC， the mobile phase was consisted of methanol-0.2% phosphoric acid solution for gradient elution with a detection wavelength of 254 nm. Similarity analysis， hierarchical cluster analysis （HCA）， principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） were used to evaluate the quality difference between batches of Zhideke granules. The correlation analysis between the common peaks and the inhibition rates of Zhideke granules on ear swelling and cotton ball granuloma in mice was carried out by partial least squares （PLS）， and the peaks greatly contributing to the anti-inflammatory effect were screened out. Result:There were 31 common peaks in the HPLC fingerprint of Zhideke granules. The similarities of 10 batches samples were ≥0.992. The HCA and PCA analysis results were consistent， and the samples were divided into 3 categories. Combined with the OPLS-DA results， 15 components were the main markers affecting the differences of different batches of samples. Different batches of Zhideke granules differed in anti-inflammatory effect. The chromatographic peaks being positively correlated with the anti-inflammatory effect were mainly from Belamcandae Rhizoma and Scutellariae Radix， Chromatographic peaks 3， 6， 19， 27-30 had significant contribution to anti-inflammatory effect， of which peaks 28 and 30 were irisflorentin and wogonin. Conclusion:HPLC fingerprint combined with chemical pattern recognition method can provide a reference for systematic evaluation of the overall quality of Zhideke granules. Zhideke granules has a certain inhibitory effect on acute and chronic inflammation in mice， and the anti-inflammatory effect is the result of the combined action of various ingredients， while Belamcandae Rhizoma and Scutellariae Radix have significant significance for the anti-inflammatory effect.
