[Objective] To investigate the inhibitory effect of quercetin on cisplatin-resistant human colorectal cancer (CRC) cells SW480 and SW620 and its possible mechanism. [Methods] Cisplatin-resistant subtypes of SW480 and SW620 cells were first cultured and the effects of quercetin on cell proliferation and chemosensitivity were determined by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis and protein blotting was used to detect the expressions of relevant proteins. [Results] MTT assay showed that quercetin at the concentrations of 80 μmol/L and 160 μmol/L significantly inhibited the proliferation of SW480 and SW620 cells. Flow cytometry results showed that the apoptosis rate was significantly higher in the cisplatin combined with quercetin group than in the other three groups. Protein blotting showed that cleaved-caspase-3 and caspase-9 expressions were significantly increased in the cisplatin combined with quercetin group. The chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity assay showed that the elevated IC50 of drug-resistant cells was decreased significantly after quercetin administration (P<0.05). [Conclusion] The present study clarifies that quercetin can increase the sensitivity of human CRC cells to cisplatin. This effect may be related to its mechanism of action in affecting cell proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

Objective To investigate the role and action mechanism of rosemarinic acid(RA)on the malignant behavior of colorectal cancer(CRC)SW480 cells.Methods We collected tumor tissues from patients with primary untreated CRC who underwent surgery in People's Hospital of Rugao from January 2019 to December 2020,as well as colon tissues from normal individuals.The expression of β-catenin was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting to analyze its relationship with the clinical stage,prognosis,and immune infiltration.CCK-8 was used to detect the effects of 10,15 and 20 μmol/L of RA on the proliferation of SW480 cells;flow cytometry detected apoptosis;Transwell and scratch assay detected changes in the invasion and migration ability of the cells,respectively.Western blotting detected the expressions of proteins related to apoptosis,epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),and Wnt/β-catenin pathway.A mouse model of CRC transplant tumor was established,and the effect of RA on the growth of transplant tumor was investigated by gavage administration.The levels of inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA.Results The expression of β-catenin was low in normal colon tissues and significantly higher in CRC tissues.In the CRC patients with high expression of β-catenin,the number of patients with tumors larger than 5 cm was significantly higher than that in the low expression group,whereas the overall survival of the patients was significantly smaller than that in the low expression group(P＜0.05).Cell proliferation was significantly inhibited and decreased in a concentration-dependent manner in the RA group at all concentrations(P＜0.05).In animal experiments,the expression of apoptotic proteins Bax and Bad was significantly increased and the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 was significantly decreased in the RA-treated group compared with the control group(P＜0.05).It was also found that the invasive and migratory ability of SW480 cells was significantly inhibited(P＜0.05),the expression of E-cadherin protein was significantly increased,the expression of Snail,N-cadherin and Vimentin was significantly reduced(P＜0.05),the expression of Axin and GSK-3β was increased,and the expression of β-catenin was reduced(P＜0.05).Conclusion RA may inhibit the biological activity of SW480 by interfering with Wnt/β-catenin pathway-mediated EMT.

Objective:To investigate the application of modified Hanley surgery in abscess of anal tube space (AATS), and its influences on anal function, interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-6.Methods:The clinical data of 96 patients with AATS from February 2020 to February 2022 in Shaoxing Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 48 patients were treated with incision-thread drawing procedure (ITDP group), and 48 patients were treated with modified Hanley group (modified Hanley group). The curative effect, anal function, inflammatory factor level, neovascularization factor level and wound healing status were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the recovery rate between modified Hanley group and ITDP group: 100.00% (48/48) vs. 95.83% (46/48), χ2 = 0.51, P>0.05. The poor rate of anal function 2 months after surgery in modified Hanley group was significantly lower than that in ITDP group: 0 vs. 12.50% (6/48), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). The tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), IL-8 and IL-6 24 h after surgery in modified Hanley group were significantly lower than those in ITDP group: (127.11 ± 13.96) ng/L vs. (160.59 ± 11.57) ng/L, (92.20 ± 11.62) ng/L vs. (124.33 ± 12.05) ng/L and (79.38 ± 12.47) ng/L vs. (100.07 ± 12.50) ng/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The monocyte chemotactic protein-1 1 week after surgery in modified Hanley group was significantly lower than that in ITDP group: (92.85 ± 14.63) ng/L vs. (122.90 ± 15.59) ng/L, the vascular endothelial growth factor-A and transforming growth factor-β 1 were significantly higher than those in ITDP group: (188.06 ± 22.53) ng/L vs. (137.80 ± 19.52) ng/L and (1 897.6 ± 97.3) ng/L vs. (1 608.6 ± 98.1) ng/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The pain score, edema score and neonatal granulation score 7, 14 and 21 d after surgery in modified Hanley were significantly lower than those in ITDP group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:In the treatment of AATS, the modified Hanley surgery not only contributes to the thorough removal of the lesions, but also plays a positive role in protecting the anal function, reducing the level of inflammation, and promoting the recovery of endothelial function.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of small incision floating line drainage for the treatment of high perianal abscess.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 95 patients with high perianal abscess treated at the Medical Community General Hospital of Shaoxing Central Hospital from April 2019 to April 2021. Among them, 47 cases were treated with small incision floating line drainage (experimental group), and 48 cases were treated with conventional multi incision drainage (control group). The surgical time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative pain, urination status, anal function evaluation, wound healing status and the clinical efficacy of the patient after 2 months of treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:The surgical time, intraoperative bleeding volume in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group: (18.70 ± 0.48) min vs. (38.10 ± 2.52) min, (32.35 ± 3.56) ml vs. (51.56 ± 6.24) ml, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The postoperative pain, urination status, anal function evaluation in the experimental group were better than those in the control group. In the experimental group, multiple incision drainage had a greater impact on patients and the wound healing cycle was longer. After treatment for 2 months, the total effective rate in the experimental group was better than that in the control group: 100.00%(47/47) vs. 91.67%(44/48), there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 4.09, P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with high perianal abscess and treated with small incision floating line drainage has a shorter wound healing cycle, less pain, lower anal damage, and better clinical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the effects of celastrol (CSR) on dendritic cell (DC) and T follicular helper cell (Tfh) subsets in the mouse of ulcerative colitis (UC) .Methods:Forty-eight male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into healthy control group, model group, and CSR intervention group, with 16 mice in each group. The healthy control group was fed with normal purified water, while the mice in model group and CSR intervention group were fed with 3% DSS solution to induce UC model. Since the induction, the mice in CSR intervention group were gavaged with 1mg/kg of CSR, and the mice in UC group were gavaged with equal volume of saline once a day. The weight and stool characteristics of the mice were recorded, and disease activity index (DAI) were evaluated. After the 8-day intervention, the length of the mouse colon was measured, the histopathological changes were observed, and the histopathological score was evaluated. Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentage of DC, conventional DC (CD8α + cDC1, CD103 + cDC1, cDC2), plasmacytoid DC (pDC), and Tfh subsets in colon lamina propria, mesenteric lymph nodes and spleen. Cytometric bead array kit was used to detect the expression levels of DC and Tfh related cytokines [interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 21 (IL-21) ] in colon tissue. The influence of CSR on naive CD4 +T cell proliferation and Tfh differentiation were validated in vitro experiments. Results:The modelling success rate was 100% and all mice survived. Compared with model group, mice in CSR intervention group had heavier weight, lower DAI, and ameliorated colonic length shortening, with all differences being statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The intestinal mucosal structure of mice in model group was disordered, with a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration; the intestinal mucosal barrier of mice in CSR intervention group approached normal structure, with fewer inflammatory cells, and the histopathological scores were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). In the colon lamina propria, compared with model group, the percentages of DC, CD8α + cDC1 and Tfh decreased, while the percentage of CD103 + cDC1 increased in CSR intervention group, and these differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.05). In mesenteric lymph nodes, the percentage of CD8α + cDC1 decreased, while the percentages of DC, CD103 + cDC1, cDC2 and Tfh increased in CSR intervention group compared with model group, and these differences were all statistically significance (all P<0.05). In the spleen, compared with model group, the percentage of pDC was significantly reduced in CSR intervention group ( P<0.05) .The expression levels of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-21 in colon tissues of CSR intervention group were lower, while IL-10 was higher than those of model group, and these differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). In vitro experiments, CSR could inhibit naive CD4 + T cell proliferation and Tfh differentiation, with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05) . Conclusion:CSR can alleviate intestinal damage in UC mice, potentially by modulating the local immune microenvironment through regulating DC and Tfh subsets.

Objective:To study the clinical features of children with pertussis and the risk factors of severe pertussis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed based on clinical data and laboratory examination results of hospitalized children with pertussis who admitted to the intensive care unit, respiratory department, and emergency general department at Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2019 to March 2020.According to the age, the patients were divided into age ≤3 months group( n=58)and age >3 months group( n=64). According to sputum culture, 63 cases were divided into negative sputum culture group and 59 cases were positive sputum culture group.The patients were also divided into vaccinated group( n=19)and unvaccinated group( n=103). Severe disease was seen in 28 cases, and the other 94 cases had the modest disease.The clinical characteristics between two groups were compared, and the risk factors of severe pertussis pneumonia were analyzed. Results:The hospitalization days in age ≤3 months group was higher than that in age >3 months group.It was also found that shortness of breath, apnea, cyanosis after coughing, heart rate decline were more common in age ≤3 months group than those in age >3 months group( P<0.05). The incidences of respiratory failure and heart failure in positive sputum culture group were higher than those in negative sputum culture group.Clinical characteristics such as hospitalization days, hospitalization expenses, peak white blood cell count, peak lymphocyte count, and incidence of bacterial infection were higher in severe pertussis group than those in non-severe pertussis group( P<0.05). Four patients were treated with exchange blood transfusion, and one patient died.Logistic regression analysis revealed that fever, wheezing, cyanosis after coughing and white blood cell count>20×10 9/L were risk factors for severe pertussis.White blood cell count of 20×10 9/L and lymphocyte count of 14×10 9/L had the highest sensitivity and specificity in predicting severe pertussis(0.71, 0.78; 0.54, 0.79). Conclusion:The younger the children are, the more likely they have shortness of breath, apnea, cyanosis, heart rate falls, and the longer the hospital stay.Bacterial infection will aggravate pertussis.Patients with fever, wheezing, cyanosis after coughing, and white blood cell count>20×10 9/L are more likely to develop severe pertussis.The white blood cell count >20×10 9/L and the lymphocyte count >14×10 9/L are associated with severe pertussis.
