Objective To investigate the effect of dorsal repulsive axon guidance protein(Draxin)on the migration of trunk neural crest cells during the early development of embryonic mouse spinal cord.Methods Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization were used to detect the expression characteristics of Draxin in early embryonic spinal cord(8 mice each group);In situ hybridization was used to detect the change of migration characteristics of trunk neural crest cells in early embryonic spinal cord of different types of mouse(5 mice each group);in vitro culture method was used to check the effect of Draxin on the migration characteristics of embryonic mouse trunk neural crest cells(16 mice each group).Resultsβ-galactosidase gene Z(LacZ)gene was introduced when Draxin gene was knocked out to produce Draxin gene knockout mice.β-galactosidase staining was used to detect LacZ gene expression in Draxin knockout embryonic mice,and the result showed that Draxin expression was observed in the spinal cord of early embryonic mice since 9.5 days(E9.5).Draxin expression was obvious in the embryonic mice spinal cord in E10.5 period.In situ hybridization was used to detect the expression of Draxin gene in the spinal cord of wild type embryonic mice,and the result further verified the obvious expression of Draxin in the early embryonic mice spinal cord in El0.5 period.Sox10 in situ hybridization was used to detect neural crest cell migration in the spinal cord of embryonic mice in E10.5 period.The result showed that segmental migration of neural crest cells in the early embryonic spinal cord of some Draxin knockout mice was delayed compared with the wild type mice.The effect of Draxin on the migration of wild type early embryonic mice trunk neural crest cells in vitro was tested.The result showed that Draxin reduced the migration distance of neural crest cells in vitro.Conclusion In the early developmental stage of embryonic spinal cord(E9.5-E10.5),neural crest cells migrated exuberant.At the same time,Draxin plays an important inhibitory function in the formation of the specific migration pathways of trunk neural crest cells by promoting neural crest cells migrating away from Draxin expressing regions.

Objective To make a comprehensive review about transitional care practice for patients receiving percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage(PTBD)and to analyze the current transitional care contents and evaluation indexes so as to provide guidance for improving the quality of transitional care services for discharged patients carrying a PTBD tube.Methods A scoping review study design was used to conduct a computerized retrieval of academic papers concerning the transitional care practice for discharged patients carrying a PTBD tube from the databases of PubMed,WOS Core Collection,CINAHL,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang med online,and Sinomed.The retrieval time period was from the establishment of the database to August 20,2024.Two investigators independently screened the literature to determine the studies to be included and the relevant information to be extracted.Results A total of 18 papers were enrolled in this study.The transitional care ways included telephone follow-up,home visit,online platform follow-up,and outpatient clinic follow-up.The intervention contents extended from in-hospital to out-of-hospital for up to 6 months.The evaluation indexes focused on the patient's knowledge about PTBD tube,the incidence of tube-related complications,the satisfaction with care,self-care ability,etc.Conclusion At present,the transitional care for discharged patients carrying a PTBD tube has a variety of content elements,which can improve the self-care ability and quality of life of the discharged patients carrying a PTBD tube to a certain extent,although more individualized transitional care modes need to be further explored.The evaluation indexes are mainly the outcome assessment of PTBD tube care.It is necessary to strengthen the quality supervision of organizational structure and nursing process.

Infectious keratitis (IK) is a leading cause of blindness worldwide, primarily resulting from improper contact lens use, trauma, and a compromised immune response. The pathogenic microorganisms responsible for IK include bacteria, fungi, viruses, and Acanthamoeba. This review examines standard therapeutic agents for treating IK, including broad-spectrum empiric antibiotics for bacterial keratitis (BK), antifungals such as voriconazole and natamycin for fungal infections, and antiviral nucleoside analogues for viral keratitis (VK). Additionally, this review discusses therapeutic agents, such as polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), for the treatment of Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK). The review also addresses emerging drugs and the challenges associated with their clinical application, including anti-biofilm agents that combat drug resistance and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway-targeted therapies to mitigate inflammation. Furthermore, methods of Photodynamic Antimicrobial Therapy (PDAT) are explored. This review underscores the importance of integrating novel and traditional therapies to tackle drug resistance and enhance drug delivery, with the goal of advancing treatment strategies for IK.

Champagne bottle neck sign (CBNS) is an important morphological feature of extracranial artery damage in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD), and more than half of them have this sign. Carotid ultrasound is the most convenient imaging examination method for diagnosing CBNS. CBNS can have a serious impact on cerebral hemodynamics and is closely associated with the staging of MMD, stroke risk, stroke characteristics, MMD-related headaches, and the risk of postoperative complications. This article comprehensively reviews the pathology and pathogenesis, imaging examination, correlation with clinical symptoms, and intervention of CBNS in patients with MMD, aiming to provide reference for the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and research of MMD combined with CBNS.

Objective To investigate the in vitro anti-hepatitis B virus(HBV)effects of icariside Ⅱ(ICS Ⅱ)and its impact on mitochondrial fission.Methods HBV-positive hepatocellular carcinoma HepAD38 cells were used as the cellular model.The cytotoxicity of ICS Ⅱ was assessed via CCK8 assay.The secretion levels of HBV surface antigen(HBsAg)and HBV e antigen(HBeAg),as well as HBV DNA copy numbers,were measured by ELISA and qPCR after treatment with ICS Ⅱ alone or ICS Ⅱ in combination with entecavir(ENT).The effects of ICS Ⅱ on mitochondrial morphology and motility were observed using confocal laser scanning microscopy and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).After ICS Ⅱ treatment,Western blot was performed to analyze the expression levels of key proteins involved in mitochondrial dynamics.Additionally,intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)production was evaluated via fluorescence staining.Results The CCK8 assay results showed that ICS Ⅱ treatment at 25 μmol/L had no significant effect on cell proliferation after 72 h.ICS Ⅱ significantly inhibited the secretion levels of HBsAg and HBeAg,with the respective inhibition rates reaching 54.90％and 39.65％(P＜0.05).Additionally,ICS Ⅱ alone reduced HBV DNA copy numbers by 15.19％,while ENT alone achieved a 34.11％inhibition rate.Notably,ICS Ⅱ in combination with ENT reduced HBV DNA copy numbers by 55.81％(P＜0.05).Furthermore,ICS Ⅱ induced mitochondrial shortening and enhanced mitochondrial motility in HepAD38 cells(P＜0.05).ICS Ⅱ significantly increased the expression levels of mitochondrial motility-related proteins,including Mfn1,Fis1,and phosphorylated Drp1(ser 616)(P＜0.05),while no significant changes were observed in the expression levels of Mfn2,total Drp1,or Drp1(ser 637)(P＞0.05).Additionally,ICS Ⅱ significantly suppressed the production of intracellular ROS in HepAD38 cells(P＜0.05).Conclusion ICS Ⅱ inhibits HBV replication in HepAD38 cells,and the underlying mechanism may be associated with the promotion of mitochondrial fission and suppression of ROS production.

Objective:To identify the CDYL-interacting proteins in murine testis and investigate the mechanism of CDYL in-volved in spermatogenesis.Methods:CDYL-interacting partners in testis were identified using co-immunoprecipitation coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS).Expression pattern of CDYL-interacting protein MYH9 was analyzed through immunohistochemistry(IHC),confocal immunofluorescence(IF)and Western blot(WB)in mouse testicular cells.The effect of the Cdyl conditional knockout(CdylcKO)in spermatogenic cell on Myh9 expression was quantified via RT-qPCR,WB and IF imaging in both spermatids and spermatozoa from cauda epididymides.Results:Direct interaction between MYH9 and CDYL was confirmed in murine testis.During spermiogenesis,MYH9 exhibited co-localization with CDYL at the manchette structure,and binding to F-ACTIN,the component of manchette.In cauda epididymal spermatozoa,MYH9 signal concentrated on acrosomal region and con-tinuously distributed along the tail length.Conditional deletion of Cdyl in spermatogenic cell resulted in the transcriptional downregula-tion of Myh9.In spermatids,CdylcKO led to reduced but retained MYH9 localization to the disorganized manchette structure.In sperma-tozoa from CdylcKO mice,abnormalities of MYH9 localization were observed,including attenuation of acrosomal signal and/or partial vanishment/enhancement of tail signal.Conclusion:In murine spermatids,MYH9 protein is localized to the manchette structure,with its expression and subcellular distribution is affected by CDYL protein.CDYL-MYH9 interaction is essential for the spermiogenesis.

Moyamoya disease is a chronic cerebrovascular disease characterized by stenosis or occlusion at the terminal portion of the internal carotid artery, accompanied by the formation of an abnormal vascular network. If these cerebral angiography findings are only seen in one hemisphere of the brain, it is unilateral moyamoya disease (U-MMD). Numerous studies have shown that U-MMD is not uncommon. The latest version of diagnostic criteria has clearly diagnosed U-MMD as Moyamoya disease, rather than being a "possible" moyamoya disease. The pathogenesis of this disease involves genetic, immune, and environmental factors, but the exact cause is currently unclear. Compared with the bilateral moyamoya disease, the U-MMD has different clinical features and imaging manifestations, and has better surgical outcome, and many risk factors promote its progression to the contralateral side. This article reviews the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, treatment, and surgical outcome of U-MMD, and looks forward to the future research directions.
