Objective: There were associations between emotional abuse and neglect (EAN) and depression, but few studies had tested potential mechanisms underlying these relationships. We aimed to provide insights on how (the mediation role of neuroticism), and under what conditions (the moderator role of psychological resilience), led to a higher level of depression. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study that used a random cluster sampling method. We randomly selected 3,993 participants from four junior middle schools in northern city of China. Participants were asked to complete four self-reported questionnaires, including the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Children Depression Inventory-Short Form, Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory Brief Version, and Chinese Resilience Scale. Results: The results showed that neuroticism mediated the associations between EAN and depression. In addition, the mediating effect of neuroticism was moderated by psychological resilience (p<0.05). Conclusion EAN and neuroticism could have an adverse impact on depression, and psychological resilience could alleviate these negative effects as a moderator. Our model suggested psychological resilience could be a particularly effective intervention point for victims of EAN.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

The mandibular condyle is a critical growth center in craniofacial bone development, especially during postnatal stages. Postnatal condyle osteogenesis requires precise spatiotemporal coordination of growth factor signaling cascades and hierarchical gene regulatory networks. Plagl1, which encodes a zinc finger transcription factor, is a paternally expressed gene. We demonstrate that PLAGL1 is highly expressed in cranial neural crest cell (CNCC)-derived lineage cells in mouse condyles. Using the CNCC-derived lineage-specific Plagl1 knockout mouse model, we evaluate the function of PLAGL1 during postnatal mouse condyle development. Our findings show that PLAGL1 contributes significantly to osteoblast differentiation, and its deficiency impairs osteogenic lineage differentiation, which consequently disrupts mandibular condyle development. Mechanistically, insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) in complex with IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) has been identified as the principal PLAGL1 effector responsible for osteogenic regulation during postnatal condyle morphogenesis. Plagl1 deficiency significantly downregulates the IGF2/IGFBP pathway, leading to disordered glucose metabolism, defective extracellular matrix organization, and impaired ossification. Exogenous IGF2 treatment rescues impaired osteoblast differentiation caused by Plagl1 deficiency. In conclusion, the PLAGL1-IGF2 axis is a critical regulator of osteogenesis during mandibular condyle development.

Objective:To discuss the differences in depression symptoms between genders and between only-children and non-only-children among adolescents through symptom network analysis of adolescent depression.Methods:A total of 650 adolescents were randomly selected from Chaoyang District,Changchun City,Jilin Province,and they were as the study samples.The Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9)was used to assess depression symptoms in the adolescents;network analysis was performed on the survey results to identify the core symptoms of adolescent depression and to compare gender differences and differences between only-children and non-only-children in depression symptoms.Results:The core symptoms of the adolescent depression were depressed mood[Closeness(Clo)=1.700 5,Strength(Str)=1.722 8]and lack of energy[Betweenness(Bet)=1.875 1].No significant differences in core symptoms were observed between males and females,but significant differences were found between only-children and non-only-children.Depression manifestations in the only-children also included psychomotor agitation or retardation.In the depression symptom network of the adolescents,the strongest edge connection was between anhedonia and depressed mood[Edge strength(Edge strength)=0.322 5],and significant differences were observed between genders and between only-children and non-only-children.The symptom network in male adolescents was consistent with the overall pattern,whereas in female adolescents,the strongest connection was the biggest between psychomotor agitation or retardation and suicidal ideation or self-harm(Edge strength=0.320 5).The symptom network in only-children was consistent with the overall pattern,whereas in non-only-children,the strongest connection was between depressed mood and feelings of worthlessness(Edge strength=0.287 4).Conclusion:The core symptoms of the adolescent depression exhibit differences between only-children and non-only-children,and the edge strengths in the symptom network show variations by gender and between only-children and non-only-children.

Retrograde adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are capable of infecting the axons of projection neurons and serve as a powerful tool for the anatomical and functional characterization of neural networks. However, few retrograde AAV capsids have been shown to offer access to cortical projection neurons across different species and enable the manipulation of neural function in non-human primates (NHPs). Here, we report the development of a novel retrograde AAV capsid, AAV-DJ8R, which efficiently labeled cortical projection neurons after local administration into the striatum of mice and macaques. In addition, intrastriatally injected AAV-DJ8R mediated opsin expression in the mouse motor cortex and induced robust behavioral alterations. Moreover, AAV-DJ8R markedly increased motor cortical neuron firing upon optogenetic light stimulation after viral delivery into the macaque putamen. These data demonstrate the usefulness of AAV-DJ8R as an efficient retrograde tracer for cortical projection neurons in rodents and NHPs and indicate its suitability for use in conducting functional interrogations.

ObjectiveTo observe the inhibitory effect of sinomenine on human glioblastoma and its pharmacokinetic characteristics in glioblastoma. MethodA human glioblastoma U87 cell line stably expressing luciferase was constructed， and a mouse glioma model was established for use in both pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic studies. Pharmacodynamics： Model mice were randomly divided into model group and sinomenine low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （50， 100， 150 mg·kg^-1）. Sinomenine was administered intraperitoneally for 14 days. The fluorescence value of brain tumors was observed to analyze its inhibitory effect on glioblastoma proliferation. Brain tumors and the surrounding brain tissue were collected， and the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGFA）， P-glycoprotein （P-gp）， breast cancer resistance protein （BCRP）， and Occludin were detected by Western blot. Pharmacokinetics： Mice were divided into a normal group （50 mg·kg^-1） and model groups （50， 100， 150 mg·kg^-1）. After a single intraperitoneal injection of sinomenine， extracellular fluid from brain tumors was collected in vivo by microdialysis every 15 min for 6 h. Sinomenine concentrations in the dialysate were detected by HPLC-MS/MS， and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated to analyze pharmacokinetic characteristics of sinomenine in the brain and glioblastoma. ResultCompared with model group， after 14 days of sinomenine administration， the fluorescence value of brain tumors significantly decreased （P<0.05） in a dose-dependent manner. Sinomenine inhibited the increase in VEGF and the degradation of Occludin in the tissue surrounding the tumor and inhibited the expression of VEGF， P-gp， and BCRP in glioblastoma. After a single administration， sinomenine was detected in brain and tumor tissues within 7.5 min. Compared with normal group， the C_max and AUC in the tumor significantly increased， T_max shortened （from 1.63 h to 0.71 h）， and CLz/F decreased. In the dose range of 50-150 mg·kg^-1， sinomenine exhibited a linear pharmacokinetic process in glioblastoma. ConclusionSinomenine has a significant inhibitory effect on glioblastoma， which can inhibit VEGF elevation and drug transporter efflux， reduce tumor invasion， and maintain the integrity of the blood-brain barrier. Sinomenine can rapidly cross the blood-tumor barrier， reach peak concentration， and exhibit linear pharmacokinetic characteristics in the tumor.
