OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism of pachymic acid on renal injury in pregnancy induced hypertension （PIH） rats by regulating the silent information regulator transcript 1/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α （Sirt1/PGC-1α） pathway. METHODS Pregnant SD rats were prepared by co-caging and PIH model was induced using N-nitro-L- arginine methyl ester （L-NAME） method. PIH rats were randomly divided into model group， L-pachymic acid （low-dose pachymic acid， 10 mg/kg） group， H-pachymic acid （high-dose pachymic acid， 20 mg/kg） group， and H-pachymic acid+EX527 （20 mg/kg pachymic acid+10 mg/kg EX527） group， with 6 rats in each group. Another 6 normal pregnant rats were selected as blank group. Each group was given relevant medicine or solvent intragastrically or intraperitoneally daily， once a day， for 28 consecutive days. After the last administration， 24 h urinary protein and tail artery systolic blood pressure （SBP） were measured in pregnant rats from each group， along with the levels of serum creatinine （Scr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN），uric acid （UA）， and cystatin C （Cys-C）. The contents of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）， and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine （8-OHdG） in renal tissue， as well as the mRNA and protein expression levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1α， were also determined. Meanwhile， renal histopathological changes in rats from each group were evaluated using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining. RESULTS Compared with model group， L-pachymic acid group and H-pachymic acid group exhibited significant decreases in 24 h urine protein quantification， tail artery SBP， Scr， BUN， UA， Cys-C levels， glomerulosclerosis index score of renal tissue， renal tubular injury score， the percentage of PAS positive area， MDA and 8-OHdG （P＜0.05）. Conversely， the contents of SOD and GSH-Px， along with the mRNA and protein expression levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1α， were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. Moreover， these improvements were more pronounced in H-pachymic acid group （P＜0.05）. Compared with H-pachymic acid group， the aforementioned indicators in pregnant rats from the H-pachymic acid+EX527 group showed significant reversal （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Pachymic acid significantly ameliorates renal injury induced by PIH in rats， potentially through activation of the Sirt1/PGC-1α pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects and potential mechanism of tuina on pain and depressive behaviors in rats with neuropathic pain(NP).Methods A total of 102 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,sham-operation group,model group,tuina group,inhibitor group and inhibitor+tuina group,with 17 rats in each group.The NP model was established by chronic constriction injury of the sciatic nerve.Starting from the 8th day post-operation,the rats underwent a 14-day tuina intervention and stereotactic injection of the SIRT1 inhibitor EX-527(20 μg/μL,0.5 μL)into the hippocampal CA1 region.Pain behaviors were assessed using the mechanical withdrawal threshold test one day before operation and on days 7,14 and 21 post-operation.Depressive behaviors were evaluated using the forced swimming test and sucrose preference test.Nissl staining was employed to observe neuronal morphology and quantity in the hippocampal tissue,while Golgi staining was used to examine dendritic spine density,hippocampal expression of SIRT1/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway related protein and mRNA were analyzed using immunofluorescence,Western blot and RT-qPCR.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the model group showed a significant decrease in mechanical withdrawal threshold(P<0.001),prolonged immobility time in the forced swimming test and reduced sucrose preference(P<0.001)on days 7,14 and 21 post-operation;the morphology of hippocampal CA1 neurons was abnormal,with a significant decrease in the number of Nissl positive cells(P<0.001)and a significant decrease in dendritic spine density(P<0.001);the expressions of SIRT1,BDNF and TrkB in dentate gyrus of the hippocampus were significantly reduced(P<0.01,P<0.001),and the protein and mRNA expressions of SIRT1,BDNF and TrkB were significantly reduced(P<0.001).Compared with the model group,the tuina group showed a significant increase in mechanical withdrawal threshold(P<0.01,P<0.001)on days 14 and 21 post-operation,shortened immobility time in the forced swimming test(P<0.01,P<0.001)and increased sucrose preference(P<0.001);the hippocampal CA1 neuronal morphology was improved,with significantly increased Nissl positive cells(P<0.001)and dendritic spine density(P<0.001);the expressions of SIRT1,BDNF and TrkB in dentate gyrus of the hippocampus significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.001),and the protein and mRNA expressions of SIRT1,BDNF and TrkB were significantly increased(P<0.001).The beneficial effects of tuina were significantly inhibited when the SIRT1 inhibitor EX-527 was used.Conclusion Tuina may alleviate pain and depressive behaviors in NP rats by activating the SIRT1/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway and improving hippocampal neuronal structural plasticity.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, bleeding site distribution, and factors associated with hospitalization for surgical management in patients with refractory posterior epistaxis.Methods:This cross-sectional study retrospectively analyzed data from 3 473 patients with refractory posterior epistaxis treated at ENT department or Emergency Department of Affiliated Zhangzhou Hospital of Fujian Medical University, between January 2018 and December 2024. The demographic and clinical data of patients were collected. Univariate analyses and multivariable logistic regression were applied to identify factors associated with hospitalization for surgical intervention.Results:Among 3 473 patients (65.94%(2 290 cases) male; mean age (54±21) years), 46.96% (1 631 cases)were aged 41-69 years. Bleeding predominantly occurred at night (89.66%, 3 114 cases) and in winter (29.92%, 1 039 cases). The most frequent bleeding sites were the olfactory cleft (25.22%,876 cases) and inferior meatus vault (25.63%,890 cases), followed by the posterior regions of middle meatus (11.26%,391 cases), the foremost regions of nasal cavity (11.20%,389 cases), the nasal septum surface (11.23%,390 cases), the bottom of nasal cavity (9.42%,327 cases), and the others or uncertain sites (6.05%,210 cases). Endoscopic electrocautery was performed in 75.01% of cases. Overall, 2 715 patients required hospitalization for surgery. Univariate analysis identified older age (≥70 years), male sex, alcohol use, nighttime onset, winter season, hypertension, diabetes, and anticoagulant use as significantly associated with hospitalization ( χ2=6.51, 8.03, 5.11, -0.17, 7.53, 12.52, 6.83, 5.18, all P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression confirmed older age ( OR=2.45, 95% CI: 1.81-7.50), winter season ( OR=9.55, 95% CI: 2.26-9.38), nighttime onset ( OR=6.78, 95% CI: 1.84-6.96), alcohol use ( OR=27.71, 95% CI: 11.97-64.14), hypertension ( OR=7.93, 95% CI: 1.64-11.84), and anticoagulant use ( OR=6.39, 95% CI: 1.06-9.47) as independent positive factors associated with hospitalization for surgical management (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Refractory posterior epistaxis most commonly affects individuals aged 41-69 years, with bleeding frequently originating from the olfactory cleft or inferior meatus vault, and exhibits seasonal (winter) and diurnal (nighttime) patterns. Independent factors significantly associated with the need for hospitalization and surgical intervention include older age, winter onset, nighttime onset, alcohol use, hypertension, and anticoagulant use. Identifying these factors may aid in risk stratification and clinical decision-making.

Objective To investigate the effects of abdominal tuina on the expression of PI3K and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDAR)subunit NR1 in spinal dorsal horn and the morphology of spinal dorsal horn neurons in ulcerative colitis(UC)rats;To explore its mechanism of action in treating UC.Methods Totally 36 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,abdominal tuina group,mesalazine group,PI3K stimulation group and PI3K stimulation + abdominal tuina group,with 6 rats in each group.The UC model in rats was simulated by drinking dextran sulfate solution freely.The abdominal tuina group and the PI3K stimulation + abdominal tuina group were given abdominal tuina intervention,the mesalazine group was given mesalazine solution for gavage,and the PI3K stimulation group and PI3K stimulation + abdominal tuina group were given intrathecal injection of PI3K agonist,once a day,for consecutive 15 days.Abdominal withdrawal reflex(AWR)score and acetic acid twist were used to observe the abdominal pain symptoms in rats.The expression of PI3K and NR1 in spinal dorsal horn were detected by immunofluorescence staining and Western blot,and the morphological changes of spinal dorsal horn neurons were observed by Nissl staining.Results Compared with the normal group,AWR score and twisting times of rats in model group significantly increased(P<0.01),the expression of PI3K and NR1 protein in spinal dorsal horn significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),the morphology of spinal dorsal horn neurons was disordered,forming a large number of vacuolar like structures,and the Nissl body structure was fuzzy and incomplete.Compared with the model group,AWR scores and twisting times of abdominal tuina group and mesalazine group significantly decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the expression of PI3K and NR1 protein significantly decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),the edema of spinal dorsal horn neurons was milder,with fewer vacuolar changes and an increase in the number of Nissl bodies;AWR scores and twisting times of PI3K stimulation group and PI3K stimulation + abdominal tuina group significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the expressions of PI3K and NR1 protein increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),a large number of neurons underwent pyknosis and necrosis,and the number of Nissl bodies decreased,even dissolving and disappearing.Conclusion Abdominal tuina can effectively improve the symptoms of abdominal pain in UC model rats,and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the expression of PI3K and NR1 in spinal dorsal horn and improving the morphology of spinal dorsal horn neurons.

Objective To observe the effect of tuina on glutamate uptake and synaptic cleft in the spinal dorsal horn of rats with neuropathic pain through astrocyte NDRG2/GLT-1 pathway,and to explore the potential analgesic mechanism of tuina on neuropathic pain.Methods A total of 54 SD rats were randomly divided into naive group,model group and tuina group(n=18).The CCI model was established in the model group,and the tuina group was treated with acupressure at"Weizhong"(BL 40)from the 4th day after CCI model was successfully established for 14 days.The changes of paw withdrawal threshold at different time points were observed to evaluate the analgesic effect of tuina.Immunofluorescence was used to observe the co-expression of NDRG2?GLT-1 and astrocytes in the spinal dorsal horn.The mRNA levels of NDRG2 and GLT-1 in astrocytes were detected by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction.The concentrations of glutamate in synaptic cleft were measured by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry.The width of the synaptic cleft was observed by transmission electron microscopy.Results Compared with the naive group,the paw withdrawal threshold in the CCI group decreased continuously(P<0.01).The number of NDRG2 and GFAP co-labeling positive cells in the spinal dorsal horn increased significantly(P<0.01),and the number of GLT-1 and GFAP co-labeled positive cells was significantly reduced(P<0.01).NDRG2 mRNA expression was up-regulated and GLT-1 mRNA expression decreased in astrocytes(P<0.01).The concentrations of glutamate increased significantly(P<0.01);The synaptic cleft was significantly narrowed(P<0.05).After tuina intervention,the above trend was significantly reversed.Compared with the model group,the paw withdrawal threshold of the tuina group increased from 11 days after CCI(P<0.01),the number of NDRG2 and GFAP co-labeling positive cells in the spinal dorsal horn was significantly reduced(P<0.01),and the number of GLT-1 and GFAP co-labeled positive cells increased significantly(P<0.01);down-regulated the expression of NDRG2 mRNA and restored GLT-1 mRNA expression in astrocytes(P<0.01);decreased glutamate concentration in synaptic cleft(P<0.05),the synaptic cleft was relatively widened(P<0.05).Conclusion Tuina alleviates pain in CCI rats at the spinal cord level possibly by promoting the uptake of glutamate by NDRG2/GLT-1 pathway in astrocytes,restoring the width of synaptic cleft and reversing synaptic plasticity.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Tuina at Weizhong （BL 40） for relieving sciatica from the perspective of hippocampal synaptic plasticity. MethodsSixty SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group， Tuina group， MK-801 group， MK-801 plus Tuina group， 12 rats in each group. After lateral ventricular cannulation， rats model with chronic compression injury of the right sciatic nerve were prepared in all groups except the sham operation group. On day 4 after modelling， rats in the Tuina group start Tuina at Weizhong （BL 40） for 10 mins once a day for a total of 14 days； rats in the MK-801 group started injecting with 0.25 μg/μl of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B （NR2B） blocker， dizocycline （MK-801）， 0.5 μl of which was administered daily in the lateral ventricle for 14 days. Rats in the MK-801 plus Tuina group underwent Tuina after 30 mins when completing MK-801 injection in the lateral ventricle， in the same way as above； rats in the model group and the sham operation group did not undergo any intervention. Spontaneous pain behaviour scores and paw withdraw thresholds （PWTs） were examined on day 1 （base value） before modelling and on day 4， 10， 14 and 18 after modelling； and on day 19， the brain tissues of the rats in each group were sampled and the number and morphology of the Nysted-positive cells in the hippocampal CA3 region were observed using Nysted staining； and the number of synapses， the thickness of postsynaptic dense material， the length of active band and the curvature of synaptic interface in hippocampal CA3 region were observed by transmission electron microscopy； and the expression of synapse-associated proteins NR2B and postsynaptic density protein-95 （PSD95） in hippocampal CA3 was detected by immunofluorescence staining and immunoblotting. ResultsCompared with the same time in the sham operation group， spontaneous pain scores significantly increased and PWTs decreased on day 4， 10， 14， and 18 after modelling in the model group （P＜0.05）； compared with the model group， spontaneous pain scores in Tuina group of rats significantly decreased on day 10， 14， and 18 after modelling， and PWTs significantly increased on day 14 and 18 after modelling （P＜0.05）. Compared with Tuina group， spontaneous pain scores increased on day 10， 14， and 18 of modelling， and PWTs decreased at days 14 and 18 of modelling in the MK-801 plus Tuina group had higher spontaneous pain scores on days 10， 14， and 18 after modelling and lower PWTs on days 14 and 18 after modelling （P＜0.05）. Compared with the sham operation group， the neuronal arrangement in the hippocampal CA3 region of the rats in the model group was disordered， with decreased number of Nysted-positive cells and synapses， reduced thickness of postsynaptic densities， length of active bands， and curvature of synaptic interfaces， wider synaptic gaps， and decreased immunofluorescent positive expression of NR2B and PSD95 as well as the expression of immunoblotting proteins in hippocampal CA3 region （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， more dense arranged nerve cells， the number of Nysted-positive cells， the number of synapses， the thickness of postsynaptic dense material， the length of active bands increased， the synaptic gap became significantly narrower， and the positive expression of immunofluorescence and immunoblotting protein expression of NR2B， PSD95 increased in the rat hippocampal CA3 region of Tuina group （P＜0.05）. Compared with Tuina group， the neuronal morphology of the hippocampal CA3 region in MK-801 plus Tuina group was severely damaged， and the number of Nystrom's-positive cells， the number of synapses， the thickness of post-synaptic densities， the length of active bands， and the curvature of synaptic interfaces reduced， the synaptic gaps became wider， and the immunofluorescent positive expression of NR2B， PSD95， and the expression of immunostained proteins decreased （P＜0.05）. ConclusionTuina at "Weizhong" （BL 40） showed significant analgesic effect， and one of the possible mechanisms concluded as significantly increasing the levels of NR2B and PSD95 protein expression in hippocampal CA3 region and thus modulating the synaptic plasticity of the hippocampus.

Background::Adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) is the commonest pediatric sellar tumor. No effective drug is available and interpatient heterogeneity is prominent. This study aimed to identify distinct molecular subgroups of ACP based on the multi-omics profiles, imaging findings, and histological features, in order to predict the response to anti-inflammatory treatment and immunotherapies.Methods::Totally 142 Chinese cases diagnosed with craniopharyngiomas were profiled, including 119 ACPs and 23 papillary craniopharyngiomas. Whole-exome sequencing (151 tumors, including recurrent ones), RNA sequencing (84 tumors), and DNA methylome profiling (95 tumors) were performed. Consensus clustering and non-negative matrix factorization were used for subgrouping, and Cox regression were utilized for prognostic evaluation, respectively.Results::Three distinct molecular subgroups were identified: WNT, ImA, and ImB. The WNT subgroup showed higher Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity, with a greater number of epithelial cells and more predominantly solid tumors. The ImA and ImB subgroups had activated inflammatory and interferon response pathways, with enhanced immune cell infiltration and more predominantly cystic tumors. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MEK/MAPK) signaling was activated only in ImA samples, while IL-6 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition biomarkers were highly expressed in the ImB group, mostly consisting of children. The degree of astrogliosis was significantly elevated in the ImA group, with severe finger-like protrusions at the invasive front of the tumor. The molecular subgrouping was an independent prognostic factor, with the WNT group having longer event-free survival than ImB (Cox, P = 0.04). ImA/ImB cases were more likely to respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy than the WNT group ( P <0.01). In the preliminary screening of subtyping markers, CD38 was significantly downregulated in WNT compared with ImA and ImB ( P = 0.01). Conclusions::ACP comprises three molecular subtypes with distinct imaging and histological features. The prognosis of the WNT type is better than that of the ImB group, which is more likely to benefit from the ICB treatment.

BACKGROUND: LY01005 (Goserelin acetate sustained-release microsphere injection) is a modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist injected monthly. This phase III trial study aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of LY01005 in Chinese patients with prostate cancer. METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial across 49 sites in China. This study included 290 patients with prostate cancer who received either LY01005 or goserelin implants every 28 days for three injections. The primary efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with testosterone suppression ≤50 ng/dL at day 29 and the cumulative probability of testosterone ≤50 ng/dL from day 29 to 85. Non-inferiority was prespecified at a margin of -10%. Secondary endpoints included significant castration (≤20 ng/dL), testosterone surge within 72 h following repeated dosing, and changes in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prostate specific antigen levels. RESULTS: On day 29, in the LY01005 and goserelin implant groups, testosterone concentrations fell below medical-castration levels in 99.3% (142/143) and 100% (140/140) of patients, respectively, with a difference of -0.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.9% to 2.0%) between the two groups. The cumulative probabilities of maintaining castration from days 29 to 85 were 99.3% and 97.8%, respectively, with a between-group difference of 1.5% (95% CI, -1.3% to 4.4%). Both results met the criterion for non-inferiority. Secondary endpoints were similar between groups. Both treatments were well-tolerated. LY01005 was associated with fewer injection-site reactions than the goserelin implant (0% vs . 1.4% [2/145]). CONCLUSION: LY01005 is as effective as goserelin implants in reducing testosterone to castration levels, with a similar safety profile. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04563936.
