Objective :
To investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 (GRg1) on human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) glycolysis by regulating pyruvate kinase M2 ( PKM2) expression.
Methods :
HRMECs were cultured in vitro and divided into normal control (NC) group, high glucose (HG) group, high glucose + ginsenoside Rg1 (HG + GRg1) group, high glucose + ginsenoside Rg1 + low expression PKM2 ( HG + GRg1 + si-PKM2) group, and high glucose + ginsenoside Rg1 + overexpression PKM2 (HG + GRg1 + OE⁃PKM2) group. si-PKM2 and OE⁃PKM2 were transfected into HRMECs cells by cell transfection. The expression of PKM2 mRNA in HRMECs was detected by qRT⁃PCR. The expression levels of related proteins in HRMECs were detected by Western blot. The number of lumen formation in vitro was observed under an inverted microscope to quantify the angiogenesis ability. Cell culture medium of each group was collected, and glucose intake, lactate production and adenosine triphosphate(ATP)content were detected by glucose detection kit, lactate detection kit and ATP detection kit,re spectively.
Results :
HG induced HRMECs significantly increased the number of blood vessel formation, glycolysis and PKM2 expression, while GRg1 treatment significantly reduced the number of blood vessel formation, glycolysis and PKM2 expression; transfection of si⁃PKM2 assisted the inhibitory effect of GRg1 on glycolysis and angiogenesis while transfection of OE⁃PKM2 interfered with the function of GRg1 .
Conclusion
GRg1 inhibits angiogenesis by inhibiting PKM2 to reduce glycolysis of HRMECs.

Objective This study detects the expression of secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (SFRP1) in healthy patients and patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and explores the relationship between SFRP1 and the occurrence and development of CP. Methods First, 28 patients forming the CP group were further divided into mild, moderate, and severe CP subgroups according to clinical attachment loss (CAL) data. Ten healthy volunteers were recruited in the control group. Gingival crevi-cular fluid (GCF) was collected from all of the patients, and the concentration of SFRP1 in the GCF samples was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Next, gingival lesions were obtained from 22 patients in the CP group and healthy gingival tissues were obtained from the 10 healthy patients in the control group. Immunohistochemical analysis for SFRP1 was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of SFRP1 and the severity of CP based on staining intensities. Results The concentration of SFRP1 in GCF samples taken from of the CP group (281.07 ng·L-1±33.37 ng·L-1) was signifi-cantly higher than that in samples taken from the control group (245.30 ng·L-1±35.69 ng·L-1) (P<0.05). A significant positive correlation was observed between the concentration of SFRP1 in GCF and CAL (r=0.651, P<0.001). Furthermore, the SFRP1 scores in the CP groups (4.500±0.913) were significantly higher than those in the control group (2.800±1.135) (P<0.001). SFRP1 scores did not vary significantly among the CP subgroups (P>0.05). Conclusion SFRP1 expression in the CP groups was significantly higher than that in the control group. Thus, SFRP1 may play a significant role in the development of CP.
