Objective:To investigate the carriage of the thalassemia gene in sperm donors in Chongqing,China by analyzing the thalas-semia screening and gene mutation types of sperm donors in Chongqing Human Sperm Bank(CHSB),and to provide a reference for thalassemia screening in sperm donors in Chongqing.Methods:Blood samples were collected from 488 sperm donors in CHSB(donors with all tests qualified during the quarantine)from December 2021 to August 2024.A complete blood count analysis was performed to measure the mean corpuscular volume(MCV)and mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH).Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)/agarose gel electrophoresis was used to detect deletional α-thalassemia mutations.PCR and DNA reverse dot blot hybridization were used to detect 3 common non-deletional α-thalassemia mutations and 17 common β-thalassemia mutations.The test results were then analyzed.Results:Among the 488 sperm donors aged 25.64±4.95 years,15(3.07％,all Han nationality)tested positive for thalassemia.This carriage rate was lower than that of the thalassemia population in Chongqing(9.24％).Among the 15 thalassemia carriers,13 had deletional α-gene mutations(-α3.7 genotype in 11 cases[73.33％],-α4.2 genotype in 1 case[6.67％],and-SEA genotype in 1 case[6.67％]),and 2 had non-deletional α-gene mutations(both with the WSM heterozygous mutation).There was only 1 case of abnor-mal MCV and MCH2 indicators among thalassemia carriers(screening positive rate was 6.67％).Conclusion:Thalassemia screening in sperm donors in CHSB reveals a low thalassemia carriage rate,reflecting geographic(predominantly Sichuan and Chongqing ori-gins)and demographic(healthy men of childbearing potential)characteristics.Given the significant impact of thalassemia on the off-spring conceived through sperm donation,it is recommended to conduct thalassemia gene screening among sperm donors in human sperm banks.

Objective:To evaluate the role of nemo-like kinase (NLK) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) and the relationship with glycolysis.Methods:BMDMs were extracted from the wild type (WT) and NLK knockout (NLK -/-) C57BL/6 mice of either sex, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were used in this study. After induction, differentiation, maturation and purity identification, BMDMs were divided into phosphate buffer solution (PBS) control group (WT+ PBS group, NLK -/-+ PBS group, n=18) and LPS group (WT+ LPS group, NLK -/-+ LPS group, n=18) by a random number table method. LPS at a final concentration of 1 μg/ml was added to stimulate mature BMDMs for 6 h in LPS group, while the equal volume of PBS was given instead in PBS group. The cell viability was measured by Calcein/PI staining, and the expression of cellular NLK, inflammatory factors (tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], interleukin-1 beta [IL-1β] and IL-6) and key glycolytic enzymes (hexokinase 2 [HK2], pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) and lactate dehydrogenase A [LDHA])mRNA was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Western blot was used to detect the expression of NLK, HK2, PKM2 and LDHA. The concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Glucose uptake and lactic acid production were measured by hexokinase method and colorimetric method respectively. Results:Compared with WT-type BMDMs, the expression of NLK protein and mRNA in NLK -/--type BMDMs was significantly down-regulated ( P<0.05). Compared with WT+ PBS group, the BMDM viability was significantly decreased, the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 was up-regulated, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the supernatant were increased, the expression of NLK, HK2, PKM2 and LDHA protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the glucose uptake and lactic acid production were increased in WT+ LPS group ( P<0.05). Compared with WT+ LPS group, the BMDM viability was significantly increased, the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 was down-regulated, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the supernatant were decreased, the expression of NLK, HK2, PKM2 and LDHA protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the glucose uptake and lactic acid production were decreased in NLK -/-+ LPS group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:NLK may enhance LPS-induced inflammatory responses of BMDMs by promoting glycolysis in BMDMs of mice.

Objective This study aims to investigate the effects of acupuncture on the spatial learning and memory capacities,the morphological characteristics of hippocampal neurons,the components of extracellular matrix,as well as the structure of the blood-brain barrier in SAMP8 mice.Moreover,it endeavors to explore the underlying mechanism through which the"Tongdu Qishen"(activating governor vessel and awakening spirit)acupuncture method ameliorates the cognitive function and modulates cerebral blood flow in SAMP8 mice.Methods Twenty 6-month-old male SAMP8 mice were randomly allocated into a model group and an electroacupuncture group,with ten mice in each group.Additionally,ten homologous 6-month-old male SAMR1 mice were designated as the normal control group.In the electroacupuncture group,the acupoint"Renzhong"(GV 26)was punctured using a quick insertion technique,while"Baihui"(GV 20)and"Yintang"(EX-HN 3)were punctured via a transverse insertion method.Subsequently,the needle handles were connected to an electroacupuncture apparatus,which was set to operate with a dense-sparse wave at a frequency of 100 Hz/2 Hz and an electric current of 2 mA.Each session of acupuncture lasted for 20 minutes and was conducted once a day for a consecutive period of 28 days.The normal group,the model group,and the electroacupuncture group all underwent identical fixation and restraint procedures to ensure consistent experimental conditions.The Morris water maze was employed to evaluate the spatial learning and memory abilities of the mice.The Nissl staining technique was utilized to assess the alterations in hippocampal neurons of SAMP8 mice.The laser speckle imaging system was adopted to measure the cerebral blood flow of the mice in each group.Transmission electron microscopy was applied to observe the ultrastructure of the blood-brain barrier within the frontal cortex tissue of the SAMP8 mice's brains.The Western blotting method was used to detect the expressions of Collagen-Ⅳ and Fibronectin in the brain tissues of SAMP8 mice.Results In comparison with the model group,the"Tongdu Qishen"acupuncture method demonstrated a significant efficacy in improving the spatial learning and memory abilities of SAMP8 mice(P<0.05).It also effectively alleviated the degeneration of hippocampal neurons,remarkably increased the cerebral blood flow perfusion volume of SAMP8 mice(P<0.05),ameliorated the damage to the blood-brain barrier structure,significantly upregulated the content of Collagen-Ⅳ(P<0.05),and significantly downregulated the content of Fibronectin(P<0.0001).Conclusion The"Tongdu Qishen"acupuncture method is capable of favorably regulating the extracellular matrix of SAMP8 mice,thereby improving cerebral blood flow and ultimately enhancing their learning and memory abilities.

The study included individuals aged 50 years and older to survey blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Ophthalmological examinations combined with questionnaires were conducted to gather basic information. The data collected from the questionnaires included general demographic information and health conditions. The results of the eye examinations were used to diagnose a total of 12 risk factors including cataracts, glaucoma, pterygium, suspected glaucoma, glaucoma, and refractive errors. These risk factors were analyzed in relation to blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Univariate analysis was conducted first, followed by logistic regression to identify the significant factors.Results:A total of 2 114 patients were included in the final analysis, among which the prevalence of moderate to severe visual impairment was 18.54% (392/2 114), and the prevalence of blindness was 2.74% (58/2 114). Univariate analysis showed that blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment were associated with age ( χ2 = 32.97, P < 0.05), hypertension ( χ2 = 3.48, P < 0.05), age-related cataract ( χ2 = 17.43, P < 0.05), glaucoma ( χ2 = 3.90, P < 0.05), macular degeneration ( χ2 = 16.04, P < 0.05), diabetes ( χ2 = 3.09, P < 0.05), pterygium ( χ2 = 2.57, P < 0.05), and fundus arteriosclerosis ( χ2 = 2.31, P < 0.05).
