Objective To investigate the influence of repeated open field tests, novel object recognition tests, and Barnes maze behavioral tests within a short term on cognitive and anxiety assessment in 3xTg-AD mice.Methods Four groups of 3xTg-AD mice, aged 12 months, were obtained using different pretreatment regimens, and the mice in the experimental groups 1-3 were treated with different drugs, while those in the control group were treated with normal saline. The open field test, the novel object recognition test, and the Barnes maze test were performed on mice successively. A behavioral video analysis system was used to record the locomotor trajectories of the mice and analyze the parameters such as time spent in the central area, exploration time for novel versus familiar objects, and latency to reach the target hole. After one session of complete tests, three sessions were performed repeatedly, and all tests were completed within one month.Results With the increase in the number of repeated tests, there was a significant reduction in the time spent in the central area in the open field test (P<0.05); in the novel object recognition test, there was an increase in the coefficient of variation for object recognition index and a reduction in exploratory behavior towards both the new environment and the novel objects; in the Barnes maze test, there was no significant difference in the latency to reach the target hole across the four tests, suggesting good reproducibility.Conclusion Repeated tests within a short term can interfere with the evaluation of anxiety status in 3xTg-AD mice in the open field test and their preference for novel objects in the novel object recognition test, but it has no obvious influence on the latency to reach the target hole in the Barnes maze test. Whether behavioral tests can be performed repeatedly in 3xTg-AD mice should be determined based on different tests.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of the Tai Chi training on bone density, bone turnover markers, and heart rate variability for people with high-risk osteoporosis, and to provide evidence for the prevention of osteoporosis at early stage. MethodsSixty-six cases of people with high risk of osteoporosis were included, and they were divided into 33 cases each in the intervention group and the control group using the random number table method. The control group received osteoporosis health education three times a week, and the intervention group received Tai Chi training under the guidance of a trainer three times a week for 40 mins each time on the basis of the control group, and both groups were intervened for 12 weeks. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure the bone density of L1~L4 vertebrae, bilateral femoral necks and bilateral total hips in the two groups before and after the intervention; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine bone turnover markers before and after the intervention, including pro-collagen type Ⅰ pro-amino-terminal prepropyl peptide (P1NP) and β-collagen type Ⅰ cross-linking carboxy-terminal peptide (β-CTX). Seven cases with good compliance in the intervention group were selected. After wearing the heart rate sensor, they successively performed Tai Chi training and walking activities recommended by the guideline for 20 mins each, and the heart rate variability (HRV) during exercise was collected, including time-domain indexes such as standard deviation of normal sinus intervals (SDNN), root-mean-square of the difference between adjacent RR intervals (RMSSD), frequency-domain metrics such as low-frequency power (LF), high-frequency power (HF), and low-frequency/high-frequency power ratio (LF/HF), as well as nonlinear metrics such as approximate entropy (ApEn), sample entropy (SampEn). ResultsFinally, 63 cases were included in the outcome analysis, including 30 cases in the intervention group and 33 cases in the control group. After the intervention, the differences of L1~L4 vertebrae, bone density of bilateral femoral neck and bilateral total hip in the intervention group were not statistically significant when compared with those before intervention (P>0.05), while the bone density of all parts of the control group decreased significantly compared with that before intervention (P<0.05), and the difference in the bone density of the L1~L4 vertebrae, bilateral femoral neck, and the right total hip before and after the intervention of the intervention group was smaller than that of the control group (P<0.05). The differences in P1NP and β-CTX between groups before and after intervention was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Compared with walking exercise, LF decreased, HF increased and LF/HF decreased during Tai Chi exercise (P<0.05); the time domain indexes and non-linear indexes between groups had no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionTai Chi exercise can maintain lumbar, hip, and femoral bone density and improve sympathetic/parasympathetic balance in people at high risk for osteoporosis, but cannot significantly improve bone turnover markers.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of perilla alcohol on pulmonary vascular remod-eling in hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension(HPH)rats and to assess its regulatory effects on the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2)-angiotensin(1-7)[Ang(1-7)]-mas proto-oncogene receptor(Mas)and ACE-angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ)-angiotensin type 1 receptor(AT1R)axes.METHODS An HPH rat model was established by keeping them in a hypobaric chamber that simulated an altitude of 5 000 m for 28 d.Male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group,hypoxia group,hypoxia+sildenafil group(ig administration of 30 mg·kg-1),and hypoxia+perillyl alcohol groups(ig administration of 25,50 and 100 mg·kg-1 respectively).After 28 d,the levels of glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase(GOT),glutamic-pyruvic transaminase(GPT),and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)in rat serum were measured to evaluate the toxic effects of perillyl alcohol on rat organs.Mean pulmonary artery pressure(mPAP)was measured via right ventricular catheterization.HE staining was used to observe the patho morphological changes of pulmonary vessels in HPH rats and measure the percentages of the vascularwall area[WA(%)],wall thickness[WT(%)],lumen area[LA(%)].The right ventricular hypertrophy level and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)expression level were detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence.Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of α-SMA,ACE,AT1R,AngⅡ,ACE2 and Mas in lung tissues of rats.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to mea-sure the content of Ang(1-7)in lung tissues.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the serum levels of GOT,GPT and BUN in the hypoxia group rats were significantly increased,but were signifi-cantly decreased by perillyl alcohol and sildenafil intervention.Compared with the control group,mPAP,WA(%),WT(%),right ventricular inner diameter(RVID),right ventricular free wall thickness(RVFWT)and fibrosis levels were significantly increased in the hypoxia group,while LA(%)was signifi-cantly decreased.Besides,the protein expression levels of α-SMA,ACE,AT1R and AngⅡ in lung tissues were significantly elevated while those of ACE2 and Mas,as well as Ang(1-7)content were signifi-cantly decreased in hypoxia group compared to the control group.Following intervention with perillyl alcohol and sildenafil,the protein expression levels of ACE and AngⅡin lung tissues of HPH rats were significantly decreased compared to the model group while those of ACE2 and Mas receptor,along with the content of Ang(1-7),were significantly increased.Perillyl alcohol significantly reduced the protein expression level of AT1R while sildenafil had no significant effect.CONCLUSION Perillyl alcohol can lower mPAP levels by improving pulmonary vascular remodeling and reducing pulmonary vascular fibrosis in HPH rats.The mechanism may be related to the regulatory effects on the ACE-AngⅡ-AT1R and ACE2-Ang(1-7)-Mas axes.
