[摘 要] 目的：探讨lncRNA DLEU2通过EZH2/H3K27me3途径调控IKKα介导甲状腺癌（TC）放射性碘抵抗的作用机制。方法：利用TCGA数据库分析TC中DLEU2的表达及其与EZH2的相关性。构建放射性碘抵抗的TPC-1细胞（RR-TPC-1细胞）模型及裸鼠移植瘤模型，通过敲低或过表达DLEU2（si-DLEU2/OE-DLEU2）、抑制EZH2（UNC1999）、过表达IKKα（OE-IKKα）进行干预，采用qPCR、WB、RIP、ChIP、CCK-8、流式细胞术、TUNEL染色及体内成瘤实验检测基因与蛋白表达、表观修饰、细胞增殖、凋亡及肿瘤生长。结果：TCGA分析显示，DLEU2在TC组织中显著上调（P < 0.001），与患者不良预后相关（P = 0.008 4），且与EZH2表达呈正相关（r = 0.390, P < 0.001）；RIP证实EZH2与DLEU2存在相互作用/结合（P < 0.05）。体外实验表明，敲低DLEU2可显著下调RR-TPC-1细胞中EZH2、IKKα表达及H3K27me3修饰水平，抑制NF-κB通路活化（P < 0.05或P < 0.01），抑制细胞增殖、促进凋亡（均P < 0.05）。联合敲低DLEU2与抑制EZH2进一步增强上述效应，而过表达IKKα则可部分逆转上述效应（P < 0.05或P < 0.01）。体内实验进一步证实，敲低DLEU2联合抑制EZH2可显著抑制移植瘤生长，增加肿瘤细胞凋亡（均P < 0.01）；IKKα过表达则部分逆转上述抗肿瘤效应（P < 0.05或P < 0.01）。结论：lncRNA DLEU2通过招募EZH2催化H3K27me3修饰，间接激活IKKα/NF-κB信号并形成正反馈环路，介导TPC-1细胞131I抵抗。

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of Huayu Jiedu prescription against PC12 cell damage induced by a combination of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs） and oxygen-glucose deprivation （OGD）. MethodsFirst， dimethyl sulfoxide （DMSO） was used to induce the differentiation of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line （HL-60） into neutrophil-like cells （dHL-60）， and cell differentiation was assessed through Giemsa staining and flow cytometry. Next， phorbol myristate （PMA） was used to induce the formation of NETs in dHL-60 cells. The formation of NETs was assessed via SYTOX Green staining， and NETs were extracted by low-speed centrifugation. Finally， the NETs prepared through the conditioned medium were combined with OGD to induce a high-differentiation PC12 neuronal cell damage model through the co-culture method. This model was treated with the Huayu Jiedu prescription-containing serum. Cells were randomly allocated into a normal control group， a model （NETs + OGD） group， a traditional Chinese medicine （NETs + OGD + 5% Huayu Jiedu prescription-containing serum） group， and a NETosis inhibitor （100 mg·L^-1 DNase I + NETs + OGD） group. The cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to evaluate cell viability and screen the optimal intervention concentrations of NETs and Huayu Jiedu Formula-containing serum， as well as the optimal intervention time for OGD. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was adopted to measure the levels of myeloperoxidase-DNA complexes （MPO-DNA）， citrullinated histone H3 （CitH3）， and neutrophil elastase （NE）. Western blot was employed to quantify the protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3. Terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay （TUNEL） staining and flow cytometry were employed to assess neuronal apoptosis. ResultsCompared with those in the normal control group， cells in the model group successfully differentiated into dHL60 cells after DMSO induction. Wright-Giemsa staining revealed that the cells in the model group had disappeared nucleoli， distinct reniform and lobulated changes of nuclei， highly condensed chromatin， and the cytoplasm containing pale purple fine granules. Flow cytometry showed that the mean fluorescence intensity （MFI） of CD11b in the model group was enhanced （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the normal control group， dHL60 cells in the model group successfully generated NETs after PMA induction. SYTOX Green staining revealed loss of cell membrane integrity， with chromatin released from the cytoplasm to form abundant extracellular， cloud-like fibrillar structures， and a marked increase in fluorescence intensity （P<0.01）. Through the CCK-8 assay for assessing the viability of highly differentiated PC12 cells， the optimal concentration for NETs was determined as 1 000 ng·L^-1， the optimal concentration of Huayu Jiedu formula-containing serum as 5%， and the optimal duration for OGD as 2 h. Compared with the normal control group， the model group showed elevated levels of MPO-DNA， CitH3， and NE （P<0.01） and upregulated protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. Furthermore， TUNEL staining revealed an increased proportion of apoptotic cells （P<0.01） and flow cytometry showed an increased apoptosis rate （P<0.01） in the model group. Compared with the model group， the Huayu Jiedu formula-containing serum group and the NETosis inhibitor group exhibited declined levels of MPO-DNA， CitH3， and NE （P<0.05，P<0.01） and downregulated protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. In addition， TUNEL staining showed a decrease in the proportion of apoptotic cells （P<0.01）， and flow cytometry revealed a decrease in the apoptosis rate （P<0.01）. ConclusionHuayu Jiedu prescription may exert a protective effect against ischemic neuronal damage by inhibiting NET formation or alleviating NET-induced neurotoxicity

ObjectiveTo elucidate the expression patterns of CYHR1 in colorectal cancer （CRC） and its regulatory role in tumour cell proliferation and metastasis-related phenotypes. MethodsExpression differences of CYHR1 between colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues were analyzed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas （TCGA） database， and the association between CYHR1 expression and patient survival was evaluated. A CRC cell model with CYHR1 overexpression was established， and changes in the expression of related molecules were verified by quantitative real-time PCR （qRT-PCR）. Cell proliferation and metastatic potential were assessed using MTT assays， colony formation assays， and Transwell migration and invasion assays to evaluate the effects of CYHR1 and MALAT1 on CRC cell proliferation and migration/invasion， including combined intervention experiments. ResultsDatabase analysis revealed that CYHR1 is significantly overexpressed in CRC tissues， and that this overexpression is significantly associated with poorer overall survival. Compared with normal control cells， mRNA expression levels of CYHR1 were markedly elevated in CRC cell lines （HCT116， RKO， etc.） （P=0.002； P=0.006）. Functional experiments demonstrated that CYHR1 overexpression significantly promoted the proliferation （P＜0.001）， colony formation （P＜0.001）， migration （P=0.002） and invasive capacity （P=0.002） of HCT116 cells； whereas knockdown of either CYHR1 or MALAT1 inhibited CRC cell proliferation and reduced their migration （P=0.006） and invasive capacity （P=0.006）. In the context of CYHR1 overexpression， combined knockdown of MALAT1 partially reversed the promotional effect of CYHR1 on CRC cell proliferation， migration and invasion （P＜0.001； P=0.001）. Mechanistic studies further revealed that CYHR1 overexpression upregulates MALAT1 mRNA expression levels （P＜0.001）， whilst CYHR1 knockdown leads to downregulation of MALAT1 expression （P＜0.001）； MALAT1 knockdown likewise downregulates CYHR1 expression， suggesting a mutually reinforcing positive regulatory relationship between the two. Furthermore， CYHR1 can activate the IL-6/STAT3 signalling axis， whilst knockdown of IL-6 or STAT3 inhibited the upregulation of MALAT1 expression by CYHR1 （P=0.031； P=0.006）. ConclusionCYHR1 is abnormally overexpressed in colorectal cancer and is closely associated with poor prognosis. CYHR1 may promote the proliferation， migration， and invasion of colorectal cancer （CRC） cells by activating the IL-6/STAT3/MALAT1 axis.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To investigate the subacute toxicity and target organs of triethylenediammonium perchlorate ammonium complex salt (DAP-4) .Methods:In August 2024, 40 SPF-grade SD rats were selected, with 10 rats in each group, half male and half female. There were 45, 140, and 420 mg/kg DAP-4 groups and a control group. Rats in each dose DAP-4 group were orally administered the corresponding amount of DAP-4 solution, while the control group was given the same dose of 1% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. SD rats were given intragastric administration once a day for 28 consecutive days. The behaviors, histopathological changes, and blood physiological and biochemical indicators of rats were detected at the corresponding time points respectively. One-way analysis of variance was used for the comparison of quantitative data between groups.Results:Compared with the control group, the body weight, food intake and food utilization rate of female and male rats in the 420 mg/kg DAP-4 group were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), while no abnormalities were observed in the other dose groups. Compared with the control group, the white blood cell count of female rats in the 420 mg/kg DAP-4 group decreased, while the hemoglobin and hematocrit decreased and the total serum protein increased of male rats ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, fibrinogen was increased in both female and male rats in the 420 mg/kg DAP-4 group, and the thrombin time of female rats was shortened ( P<0.05). In each dose group, the livers of female and male rats showed varying degrees of vacuolar degeneration, and the renal tubules of female rats were swollen. Conclusion:420 mg/kg DAP-4 can cause damage to the liver and kidney of rats, and the maximal no effect level of DAP-4 for rats is 140 mg/kg.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy for lumbosacral plexus block combined with intravenous anesthesia for hip replacement in elderly patients.Methods:Twenty-two elderly patients of either sex, aged 65-89 yr, with a body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, scheduled for elective lateral approach to unilateral hip replacement, capable of cooperating to complete the Mini-Mental State Examination with a score of ≥25, were included. Preoperative lumbosacral plexus block was performed on the affected side under ultrasound guidance. Sufentanil 0.1 μg/kg was intravenously injected at 5 min before skin incision, and propofol was given by target-controlled infusion at a plasma target concentration of 1.0-2.0 μg/ml. During the operation, spontaneous breathing was preserved and high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy was performed. FiO 2 was set at 60%, gas flow rate at 60 L/min, temperature at 37 ℃, humidity at 100%. The values of Bispectral Index were 60 -75, and the Surgical Pleth Index value was 30-60. If the Surgical Pleth Index value > 60, an additional sufentanil 0.05 μg/kg was added. PaO 2, FiO 2 and PaCO 2 were recorded immediately before nerve block (T 1), immediately after the start of surgery (T 2), 30 min after the start of surgery (T 3), 90 min after the start of surgery (T 4), immediately after the end of surgery (T 5) and immediately after leaving postanesthesia care unit (T 6). Lung ultrasound scores were recorded at T 1 and T 6. The development of intraoperative hypotension, bradycardia and hypoxemia and occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, new pulmonary infection, delirium and cognitive dysfunction were recorded. Results:Nerve block was completed within 15 min in all the patients, and all the patients underwent surgery successfully. PaO 2/FiO 2 increased at T 4 and T 5, while at T 6 it decreased to the level observed at T 1 ( P<0.05); PaCO 2 increased at T 2-T 6 and reached the peak value at T 2 ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in lung ultrasound scores at all time points ( P>0.05). There were 8 patients (36%) with hypotension and 2 patients (9%) with bradycardia, and no hypoxemia was found during operation. Postoperative nausea and vomiting occurred in 2 cases (9%) and delirium in 2 cases (9%), and no new pulmonary infection or cognitive dysfunction was found after operation. Conclusions:High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy can be safely and effectively used in elderly patients undergoing hip replacement with lumbosacral plexus block combined with intravenous anesthesia.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity and safety of novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion strain protein derivatives,referred to as B/R strain active proteins.In cellular experiments,RAW264.7 cells were treated with each vaccine preparation,and apoptosis rates were measured.In subsequent animal experiments,C57BL/6 mice were immunized via subcutaneous injection,and their survival and body weight changes were monitored and recorded at 2,4,8,12,and 16 weeks.The lungs and spleens were harvested to calculate organ coefficients,and pathological examinations were conducted.At the eighth week of immunization,the mice were infected with high concentrations of BCG,and pathological changes in the lungs and spleens were observed 4 weeks post-infection.The apoptosis rate at 6 hours was significantly higher in the experimental group than the PBS group(P<0.05).At 12 and 24 hours,the apoptosis rate in the experimental group remained higher than that in the PBS group,although this difference was not statistically significant.After immunization,mice in all four groups exhibited normal growth patterns,as indicated by stable body weight changes.At 4 and 12 weeks post-immunization,the lung coefficients in the protein group were significantly higher than those in the PBS group at the same time points.Additionally,the lung coefficients in the BCG group were significantly elevated across all time periods(P<0.05).The spleen coefficients in the protein and BCG groups were significantly higher than those in the PBS group at 2,4,8,12,and 16 weeks,whereas the ICD B/R group showed higher spleen coefficients than the PBS group only at week 8(P<0.05).Pathological examination revealed normal lung and spleen tissues in the PBS group.However,during the 2-8 weeks immunization period,lung and spleen tissues in all experimental groups exhibited varying degrees of damage,which gradually diminished by 12-16 weeks.Notably,no tuberculosis nodules were observed in any experimental group.After infection with high concentrations of BCG,no overt pathological changes were observed on the surfaces of the lungs and spleens in any group.Microscopic examination revealed less severe pathological changes in the lungs and spleens of mice in the experimental groups than the PBS group.Furthermore,no statistically significant differences were observed between the protein group and the BCG group.Our findings suggested that the B/R strain active proteins'toxicity and safety profiles were comparable to those of BCG,and showed immunoprotective effects.This study provides an experimental foundation for the development of a novel tuberculosis vaccine.

BACKGROUND:The plateau environment affects the immune function and metabolic status of patients with osteomyelitis,leading to acceleration or complication of the disease process.The construction of effective and stable animal models of chronic osteomyelitis is essential for experimental studies of chronic osteomyelitis.OBJECTIVE:To establish a sheep model of chronic osteomyelitis in plateau regions for toxicity assessment and therapeutic research.METHODS:Fifteen healthy sheep were selected in this study.Sodium morrhuate and Staphylococcus aureus suspension were injected into the medullary cavity of the middle segment of the tibia to establish the chronic osteomyelitis model.General observation,body mass and temperature monitoring,blood infection index detection,radiological scoring,and microbial culture were performed for evaluation and analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Local tissue swelling and lameness of the affected leg were observed in all sheep in the early stage after modeling,accompanied by varying degrees of anorexia.A slight decrease in body mass was observed in sheep 1 week after modeling,while no significant changes in body temperature were observed.(2)The erythrocyte sedimentation rate significantly accelerated 4 days after modeling(P<0.05)and gradually returned to normal levels after 1 month.The white blood cell count showed a significant increase within 4 days after modeling and returned to normal after 1 week.The level of C-reactive protein increased significantly after modeling(P<0.05)and remained significantly higher than normal until the end of the experiment(P<0.05).(3)Fifteen sheep exhibited typical radiological manifestations of osteomyelitis,including unclear boundaries,irregular osteolytic lesions,and low-density bright absorption areas with interspersed necrotic bone fragments of increased and uneven density.Different degrees of periosteal reaction were observed in the cortex near the lesion.(4)Thirteen sheep were cultured for a single strain of Staphylococcus aureus,while two sheep were cultured for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.These findings indicate that a reliable chronic osteomyelitis animal model of sheep tibia can be successfully established in plateau regions by injecting an appropriate amount of Staphylococcus aureus suspension into the medullary cavity of sheep,combined with local implantation of foreign cotton thread and sodium morrhuate.
