AIM:To investigate the effect of cellular Sloan-Kettering Institute(c-SKI)protein expression on myocardial fibrosis in mice treated with andrgrapholide(Andr).METHODS:Male C57 mice were randomly divided into control group,model group[isoprenaline(ISO)group]and ISO+Andr group,with 6 mice per group.The mice in ISO and ISO+Andr groups were subcutaneously injected with ISO,while those in control group were injected with normal sa-line.The mice in ISO+Andr group was intragastrically given Andr,while those in ISO and control groups were given nor-mal saline.The histopathological characteristics of the heart tissue were detected by HE and Masson staining after 8 weeks of administration.The expression levels of c-SKI and extracellular matrix(ECM)-related proteins were detected by immu-nohistochemistry or Western blot.The c-SKI mRNA level was detected by qPCR.Human cardiac fibroblasts(HCFBs)were treated with different concentrations of Andr for 48 h.The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay,and the c-SKI and ECM-related protein levels were detected by Western blot.The transdifferentiated cell model was treated with the lowest effective dose of Andr.The cell morphology was observed under a microscope,the levels of c-SKI and ECM-related pro-teins were assessed by Western blot,and the c-SKI mRNA level was detected by qPCR.The transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)-treated HCFBs were treated with the combination of c-SKI knockdown and Andr.The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay,and the levels of c-SKI and ECM-related proteins were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:After the intervention of Andr,the myocardial fibers in mice were neatly arranged,the morphology of myocardial cells was basically normal,the cell membrane was intact,and the collagen volume fraction was significantly reduced(P＜0.01).The mRNA and protein levels of c-SKI were significantly up-regulated(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and the protein levels of fibronectin 1(FN1),α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),vimentin and collagen type I(Col I)were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.01).After 50 μmol/L Andr treatment for 48 h,the viability of HCFBs was significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the pro-tein levels of Col I,α-SMA,vimentin and FN1 were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.01),and c-SKI expression was significantly up-regulated(P＜0.01).Compared with PBS group,the number of the HCFBs in TGF-β1 group increased with flattened and irregular morphological change,and the FN1,α-SMA,Col I and vimentin levels were significantly in-creased(P＜0.01),while c-SKI expression was significantly decreased(P＜0.01).After Andr intervention,the induction effect of TGF-β1 on HCFBs was reversed.Knockdown of c-SKI combined with Andr treatment in HCFBs significantly down-regulated c-SKI expression(P＜0.01),significantly up-regulated FN1,α-SMA,vimentin and Col I levels(P＜0.05),and significantly increased the cell viability.CONCLUSION:Andrgrapholide may affect the TGF-β1 signaling pathway by regulating c-SKI expression,and inhibit the proliferation of myocardial fibroblasts and ECM deposition,thus inhibiting myocardial fibrosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between liver stiffness and histopathological changes in a rat model of acute hepatitis using virtual touch tissue imaging quantification (VTIQ) technology.Methods:A total of 100 SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control ( n=30), low-dose ( n=35), and high-dose ( n=35) groups. Acute hepatitis models were induced in the low-dose and high-dose groups using 400 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg of Thioacetamide (TAA), respectively. Liver stiffness parameters of the right median lobe and right lobe were measured using VTIQ technology, Mean-H and Mean-L represent the liver lobes with higher and lower liver stiffness measurments, respectively, while Mean represent the average of the measurements from both liver lobes. Comparative analyses of liver stiffness parameters were performed across three groups and between the two lobes of the liver. The correlations between the Mean values of liver stiffness and semi-quantitative histopathological data were investigated. Ten rats were randomly selected from each of the 3 groups to test the repeatability of VTIQ values before and after euthanasia with intraperitoneal anesthesia. Subsequently, 10 rats after euthanasia from each 3 group were randomly chosen to assess the repeatability of VTIQ measurements for inter-observer and intra-observer variabilities. Results:VTIQ results showed statistically significant differences in Mean, Mean-H, and Mean-L among the 3 groups (all P<0.01). The high-dose group had higher measurements compared to the low-dose and control groups, with significant intergroup differences (all P<0.01). Significant differences in Mean-H and Mean-L were observed between the two liver lobes in both low and high-dose groups (all P<0.01). The Mean value showed significant positive correlations with semi-quantitative histopathological data of hepatocellular edema, periportal inflammatory cell infiltration, macrophage proliferation, and bile duct proliferation ( r=0.391, 0.648, 0.577, 0.542; all P<0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that hepatocellular edema, eosinophilic change, and bile duct proliferation significantly and positively predicted the Mean value (β=-0.278, -0.196, -0.333; all P<0.05). There were no significant differences of VTIQ measurements befor and after euthanasia (all P>0.05), with repeatability coefficients of 0.166, 0.182, 0.185 for Mean, Mean-H, and Mean-L, respectively. Post-euthanasia, inter- and intra-observer VTIQ differences remained non-significant (all P>0.05), with Mean, Mean-H, Mean-L coefficients of 0.114, 0.194, 0.165 and 0.206, 0.322, 0.268, respectively. Conclusions:VTIQ technology demonstrates potential clinical value in assessing a rat model of acute hepatitis, offering a new perspective for non-invasive evaluation of acute hepatitis. However, its clinical application requires further validation.

Objective Polysaccharide is a major active component in Lycium barbarum.the structure and content of polysaccharide are different among different producing districts.At present,most of the quality control methods of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide construct fingerprint from the aspect of monosaccharide composition,but the quality control of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide only by analyzing monosaccharide composition can not fully explain the relationship between structure and Lycium barbarum polysaccharide.Therefore,we established the Needs methylation method of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide fingerprint to achieve quality control of Lycium barbarum from different places by determining the sugar residue linkage mode of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide on the basis of monosaccharide composition.Methods Lycium barbarum polysaccharide was extracted through water extraction followed by alcohol precipitation,and the Needs methylation,complete acid hydrolysis,reduction by NaBH4,acetylation and other methods combined with GC-MS to determine the sugar residue linkage motif of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide.Result The chromatograms of 18 batches of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides were imported into the Chinese Medicine Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System(2004 edition),combined with chemometrics to evaluate the differences of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide from different origin.The result of similarity showed that the similarity of three batches of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide from Tibet ranged from 0.551 to 0.569,others were more than 0.929.16 common peaks were marked in chromatogram of sugar residue linkage mode,and 10 of them was identified,they are T-Arap,T-Araf,T-Xylp,1,2-Arap,1,3-Rhap,1,5-Araf,T-Glcp,T-Galp,1,4-Glcp,1,6-Galp.The results of HCA,PCA and PLS-DA analysis divided 18 bathes of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide were divided into three categories,and three signature components were screened,which were T-Araf,1,5-Araf and T-Glcp,to judge the differences of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides from different places.Conclusion The Needs methylation fingerprint of 18 batches of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide was established for the first time.The establishment of the fingerprint can provide experimental data reference for the quality control of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide,and further prove the role of polysaccharide in the quality control of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Objective To investigate the correlation between genetic polymorphisms and the risk of rivaroxaban bleeding events in elderly patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF).Meth-ods A total of 180 elderly NVAF patients treated with rivaroxaban in our department from June 2019 to June 2022 were enrolled,and after 1 year of follow-up,finally,167 patients were included,according to whether bleeding events occurred,they were divided into hemorrhage group(n=31)and control group(n=136).The clinical data and genetic polymorphism were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between genet-ic polymorphisms and bleeding events in the patients after rivaroxaban treatment.Results Higher frequencies of CYP2C9*1,CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1-GG,but lower frequencies of CYP2C9*2,VKORC1-AA and VKORC1-AG were observed in the bleeding group than the control group(all P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CYP2C9*1,CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1-GG were independent risk factors for bleeding events in elderly NVAF patients taking rivaroxaban(OR=1.880,95％CI:1.126-1.997,P=0.030;OR=1.432,95％CI:1.044-1.964,P=0.026;OR=2.176,95％CI:1.173-4.037,P=0.014),while,CYP2C9*2,VKORC1-AA and VKORC1-AG were protective factors for bleeding events in elderly NVAF patients taking rivar-oxaban.Conclusion Genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 are significantly correlated with the risk of bleeding events in elderly NVAF patients taking rivaroxaban.And CYP2C9*1,CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1-GG genotypes are independent risk factors,while CYP2C9*2,VKORC1-AA and VKORC1-AG genotypes are protective factors.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and MRI features of the mixed epithelial and stromal tumor family (MESTF) of the kidney.Methods:From January 2009 to September 2021, 42 patients with pathologically-proven MESTF from the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital were collected in this retrospective study. Clinical information, MRI features, and pathological results were documented. According to the Bosniak classification (BC) version 2019, all MESTFs were divided into cystic MESTFs (36 cases) and solid-cystic MESTFs (6 cases). The R.E.N.A.L. nephrometry score (RNS), lesion size, laterality, location, margin, shape, growth pattern, presence of protruding into renal sinus, hemorrhage, and enhancement pattern were evaluated and documented. Based on BC versions 2005 and 2019, all the cystic MESTFs were assessed and divided into low (Ⅰ, Ⅱ, ⅡF) and high (Ⅲ, Ⅳ) grades. The independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test were performed to compare age, RNS, and lesion size between cystic MESTFs and solid-cystic MESTFs. Pearson χ 2 test, continuity-adjusted χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability test were utilized to evaluated the differences of clinical and MRI features and the distribution of low or high grades in two versions of BC. Results:Forty-two MESTFs were unilateral and solitary masses, 25 males and 17 females, with a mean age of (41±13) years old. Compared to solid-cystic MESTFs, cystic MESTFs were prone to demonstrate endophytic growth pattern (χ 2=17.77, P<0.001), and no significant differences in other clinical and MRI features were observed between cystic and solid-cystic MESTFs (all P>0.05). There were 7 low-grade and 29 high-grade tumors in the BC version 2005, respectively. Meanwhile, 24 low-grade and 12 high-grade tumors in the BC version 2019, respectively. The distribution of low or high-grade tumors in the two versions of BC had a statistically significant difference (χ 2=16.37, P<0.001). Conclusion:MESTFs demonstrated middle-age onset and no gender predilection. Cystic MESTFs are more likely to exhibit endophytic growth pattern with low-grade classification in BC system version 2019.
