OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at changbing fang (prescription for intestinal disease) on autophagy of colonic cells and gut microbiota in rats with ulcerative colitis (UC), and to explore the mechanism of EA in the treatment of UC. METHODS: Thirty-two SD male rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, an EA group and a sham-EA group, with 8 rats in each group. Except the control group, the UC rat model was established by free drinking of 5% dextran sulfate sodium solution for 7 days in the other groups. In the EA group, changbing fang was adopted, in which, EA was applied at "Tianshu" (ST25) and "Shangjuxu" (ST37), at disperse-dense wave and frequency of 10 Hz/50 Hz, for 20 min in each intervention. In the sham-EA group, shallow transcutaneous puncture was performed at the sites, 5 mm away from the points as the EA group, with the same parameters as the EA group. The intervention was delivered once daily for 3 consecutive days. The body weight was measured daily and the disease activity index (DAI) score was calculated before and after intervention. After intervention completion, the colon length was measured. Using HE staining, the colon morphology was observed and the score of colonic pathology was assessed. With ELISA adopted, the contents of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2 and IL-10 in the serum of the rats were detected. The ultrastructure of the colon tissue was observed under electron microscopy. Using Western blotting, the protein expression was detected for microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)Ⅱ, LC3Ⅰ, autophagy-related genes (ATG) 5, ATG12, sequestosome 1 (p62), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-AKT), protein kinase B (AKT), and phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR), mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the colon tissue. The mRNA expression of PI3K, AKT and m-TOR in the colon tissue was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to analyze the structure of gut flora in the feces of rats. RESULTS: From day 1 to day 7, compared with the control group, the body weight decreased in the model group, EA group, and SEA group (P<0.05, P<0.01). From day 9 to day 10, the EA group showed an increase in body weight compared with the model group and SEA group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Before intervention, the DAI score in the model group, EA group, and SEA group was higher than the score of the control group, respectively (P<0.01). After intervention, the DAI score in the EA group was reduced compared with the model group and SEA group (P<0.01). Compared with the control group, in the model group, the colon length of rats was shorter (P<0.01); it showed the distorted crypts, thinner mucosal layer, reduced goblet cells, inflammatory cell infiltration and the disarranged histological structure; and the pathological score of the colon tissue increased (P<0.01); the serum contents of TNF-α and IL-1β increased (P<0.01), and those of IL-2 and IL-10 decreased (P<0.01). The structure of colon epithelial cells was disarranged, with cilia pelt off, and a large number of vacuoles in the cytoplasm; the mitochondria were swollen, with unclear structure and cristae partially disappeared; and few autophagosomes were observed. The value of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand the protein expression of ATG5 and ATG12 in the colon tissues were reduced (P<0.01), the protein expression of p62 and PI3K, and the values of p-AKT/AKT, and p-mTOR/mTOR increased (P<0.01), and mRNA expression of PI3K, AKT and mTOR was elevated (P<0.01). The indexes of Chao1, Ace and Shannon decreased (P<0.01). At the phylum level, the relative abundance of Firmicutes decreased (P<0.05), that of Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). At the genus level, the relevant abundance of Lactobacillus decreased (P<0.05), while that of Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and Phascolarctobacterium increased (P<0.01, P<0.05 ). Compared with the model group and SEA group, in the EA group, the colon length increased (P<0.01), the infiltration of inflammatory cells was reduced, the arrangement of intestinal epithelial cells was arranged regularly, with a small amount of shedding, and the pathological score of the colon tissue decreased (P<0.01). The serum contents of TNF-α and IL-1β decreased (P<0.01), and those of IL-2 and IL-10 increased (P<0.01). The colonic epithelial cells were arranged relatively, the morphology of organelles was basically normal, and autophagosomes were visible. The value of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand the protein expression of ATG5 and ATG12 in colon tissue increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), the protein expression of p62 and PI3K, and the values of p-AKT/AKT, and p-mTOR/mTOR decreased (P<0.01); and mRNA expression of PI3K, AKT, m-TOR was reduced (P<0.01). The indexes of Chao1, Ace and Shannon increased (P<0.01). At the phylum level, the relative abundance of Firmicutes increased (P<0.01), while that of Bacteroidetes decreased (P<0.01). At the genus level, the relative abundance of Lactobacillus increased (P<0.05), whereas that of Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group decreased (P<0.01). When compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Proteobacteria decreased (P<0.05), and that of Phascolarctobacterium was reduced (P<0.05) in the EA group. CONCLUSION EA at changbingfang alleviates UC symptoms probably through inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway to regulate colonic autophagy and improve the intestinal flora.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of Ferrostatin-1(Fer-1),a ferroptosis inhibitor,on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury(MIRI).Methods Rat H9c2 cardiomyocytes were ran-domly divided into five groups:Control group,H/R medium group,H/R medium+Fer-1 group,H/R medium+Nec-1 group,and H/R medium+emricasan group.Cell morphology was observed using electron mi-croscopy.Cell proliferation activity was assessed via CCK-8 assay and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release.I-ron ion levels were measured using an iron detection kit.Reactive oxygen species(ROS)and mitochondrial su-peroxide levels were detected by flow cytometry and MitoSOXTM fluorescence staining,respectively.Western blot was employed to analyze the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4(ACSL4),nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase(NOX1),and cycloox-ygenase 2(COX2).Results Compared to the Control group,the H/R medium group exhibited significantly increased cytotoxicity(LDH levels)and reduced cell viability,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Treatment with Fer-1,Nec-1,or emricasan in the H/R medium group increased cell adherence,reduced vacuolization,enhanced cell viability,and decreased cytotoxicity(LDH relative releasing rate)compared to the H/R medium group.Intracellular ferrous iron and total iron levels were elevated in the H/R medium group compared to the Control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05),while Fer-1 treatment sig-nificantly reduced these levels(P<0.05).ROS levels were higher in the H/R medium group than in the Con-trol group,and Fer-1 treatment attenuated this increase(P<0.05).Western blot analysis revealed elevated ACSL4,NOX1,and COX2 levels,alongside reduced GPX4 levels,in the H/R medium group compared to the Control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Fer-1 treatment reversed these trends,de-creasing ACSL4,NOX1,and COX2 levels while increasing GPX4 expression,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion Ferroptosis plays a critical role in MIRI.Fer-1 mitigates oxidative stress injury and alleviates MIRI by inhibiting ferroptosis.

Triple-negative breast cancer is therapeutically challenging due to the low expression of tumor markers and 'cold' tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Here, we present a dual-targeting peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) for tumor inhibition. Our PDC efficiently and selectively delivers cytotoxic Monomethyl Auristatin E (MMAE) into tumor cells via C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) for synergistic inhibition of growth and metastasis. Our results show that the dual-targeting PDC has potent antitumor activity in cultured human cells and several murine transplanted tumor models without apparent toxicity. The combination of dual-targeting PDC and radiotherapy modulates the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment by increasing CD8⁺ T cell infiltration and attenuating the proportion of myeloid-derived suppressor and regulatory T cells. Therefore, our dual-targeting PDC represents a promising new strategy for cancer therapy that rebalances the immune system and promotes tumor regression.

Periodontal bone defects, primarily caused by periodontitis, are highly prevalent in clinical settings and manifest as bone fenestration, dehiscence, or attachment loss, presenting a significant challenge to oral health. In regenerative medicine, harnessing developmental principles for tissue repair offers promising therapeutic potential. Of particular interest is the condensation of progenitor cells, an essential event in organogenesis that has inspired clinically effective cell aggregation approaches in dental regeneration. However, the precise cellular coordination mechanisms during condensation and regeneration remain elusive. Here, taking the tooth as a model organ, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect the cellular composition and heterogeneity of human dental follicle and dental papilla, revealing a distinct Platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) population with remarkable odontogenic potential. Interestingly, a reciprocal paracrine interaction between PDGFRA⁺ dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) and CD31⁺ Endomucin⁺ endothelial cells (ECs) was mediated by Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and Platelet-derived growth factor subunit BB (PDGFBB). This crosstalk not only maintains the functionality of PDGFRA⁺ DFSCs but also drives specialized angiogenesis. In vivo periodontal bone regeneration experiments further reveal that communication between PDGFRA⁺ DFSC aggregates and recipient ECs is essential for effective angiogenic-osteogenic coupling and rapid tissue repair. Collectively, our results unravel the importance of MSC-EC crosstalk mediated by the VEGFA and PDGFBB-PDGFRA reciprocal signaling in orchestrating angiogenesis and osteogenesis. These findings not only establish a framework for deciphering and promoting periodontal bone regeneration in potential clinical applications but also offer insights for future therapeutic strategies in dental or broader regenerative medicine.

OBJECTIVE: To determine risk factors for cutout failure in geriatric intertrochanteric fracture patients after cephalomedullary nail fixation. METHODS: A retrospective review of 518 elderly patients who underwent cephalomedullary nail fixation for intertrochanteric fractures between January 2008 and August 2018 was conducted, including 167 males and 351 females, age from 65 to 97 years old. All patients were followed up for at least one year after surgery and divided into a healed group and a cutout group based on whether the hip screw cutout occurred. Among all patients, 10 cases experienced hip screw cutout. The general information, surgical data, and radiological data of the two groups were compared, and risk factors influencing hip screw cutout were analyzed. Propensity score matching was then performed on the cutout group based on gender, age, body mass index(BMI), and American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA), and 40 patients from the healed group were matched at a ratio of 1∶4. Key risk factors affecting hip screw cutout were further analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate associations between variables and cutout failure. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences between the healed group and the cutout group in terms of age, gender, BMI, ASA, and AO classification. However, statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of reduction quality(P=0.003) and tip-apex distance(TAD), P<0.001. Multivariate analysis identified poor reduction quality OR=23.138, 95%CI(2.163, 247.551), P=0.009 and TAD≥25 mm OR=30.538, 95%CI(2.935, 317.770), P=0.004 as independent risk factors for cutout failure. CONCLUSION The present study identified poor reduction quality and TAD≥25 mm as factors for cutout failure in geriatric intertrochanteric fractures treated with cephalomedullary nails. Further studies are needed to calculate the optimal TAD for cephalomedullary nails.

Objective:To investigate the functional characteristics of the prefrontal cortex in patients with schizophrenia (SCZ) during resting state and analyze its association with clinical symptoms.Methods:Twenty-eight hospitalized patients with SCZ (SCZ group) were selected from November 2023 to May 2024, and 28 healthy controls (HC group) were recruited concurrently. By using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) technology, data on the concentration changes of oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HbR) in the prefrontal cortex during resting state were collected from all subjects to measure cortical hemodynamic activity. Regional activation values and functional connectivity (FC) values among brain areas were analyzed. Clinical symptoms in patients were assessed using the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS).SPSS 25.0 software was employed for statistical analysis. Between-group comparisons were performed using independent samples t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests. Spearman correlation analysis and general linear regression models were applied to examine relationships between prefrontal cortical functional characteristics and clinical symptoms. Results:The levels of HbO in the right inferior frontal gyrus and left frontal pole area were significantly higher in the SCZ group (1.5 (1.0, 3.0)μmol/L, 1.0 (1.0, 2.8)μmol/L) than those in the HC group (-0.01 (-0.05, 0.02)μmol/L, -0.02 (-0.07, 0.03)μmol/L) ( Z=-6.46, -6.50, both P<0.01). The levels of HbR in the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex were significantly higher in the SCZ group (0.02 (-0.01, 0.07)μmol/L, 0.01 (-0.01, 0.03)μmol/L) than those in the HC group (-0.01 (-0.03, 0.01)μmol/L, -0.01 (-0.02, 0.01)μmol/L) ( Z=-2.46, -1.98, both P<0.05).The SCZ group showed significantly higher HbO-based FC values in the frontal pole-temporal pole (0.49±0.21) and temporal pole-dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (0.36±0.25) compared to the HC group (0.33±0.18, 0.15±0.19) ( t=3.02, 3.44, both P<0.01). Conversely, the SCZ group exhibited significantly lower HbR-based FC in the frontal pole-inferior frontal gyrus (0.15±0.13) and inferior frontal gyrus-temporal pole (0.27±0.37) compared to the HC group (0.33±0.26, 0.77±0.48) ( t=-3.17, -4.23, both P<0.01). Correlation analysis revealed that in the SCZ group, the level of HbO in the right inferior frontal gyrus was positively correlated with negative symptoms, positive symptoms, excitement/hostility, and PANSS total score ( r=0.45-0.64, all P<0.05), and the level of HbO in the left frontal pole area was positively correlated with excitement/hostility and PANSS total score ( r=0.57, 0.50, both P<0.01), while the FC value between the frontal pole and temporal pole areas showed a negative correlation with excitement/hostility ( r=-0.39, P<0.05). Regression analysis demonstrated that, the HbO concentration in the right inferior frontal gyrus significantly positively predicted PANSS total score, positive symptoms, and negative symptoms ( β=0.70, 0.64, 0.55, all P<0.01).The HbO concentration in the left frontal pole area significantly positively predicted excitement/hostility ( β=0.77, P<0.01).The frontal pole-temporal pole HbO-based FC significantly negatively predicted excitement/hostility scores ( β=-0.42, P<0.01). Conclusion:Patients with SCZ exhibit hyperactivation of localized prefrontal cortex brain regions and dysfunction of functional connectivity during resting state, which are significantly associated with core clinical symptoms including positive, negative, and excitement/hostility symptoms.

Objective To explore the effects of different CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressures during surgery on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position.Methods A total of 88 overweight or obese patients who underwent laparoscopic panhysterectomy were selected and randomly divided into the low-pressure group and the high-pressure group according to random number table method,with 44 patients in each group.All patients used CO2 as the pneumoperitoneum medium during surgery,with 10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the low-pressure group and 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the high-pressure group.The operation-related indexes,respiratory indicators,nasopharyngeal temperature and adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the surgical time,blood loss,intraoperative infusion volume,incidence of organ injury,and laparotomy rate between the two groups(P>0.05).The recovery time of anesthesia of patients in the low-pressure group was shorter than that in the high-pressure group(P<0.05).At 30 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum,the peak airway pressure(Ppeak)and plateau pressure(Pplat)of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05),while the dynamic lung compliance(Cdyn)of patients in the high-pressure group was significantly lower than that in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).At 60 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum and the end of pneumoperitoneum,the nasopharyngeal temperature of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly lower than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).The incidences of intraoperative hypothermia and shivering in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure,10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position does not increase surgical difficulty,and the patients has lower airway pressure,better lung compliance,fewer adverse reactions,and faster recovery,which can also avoid intraoperative hypothermia.
