Objective: To explore the changes of mechanosensitive channels Piezos (Piezo 1 and Piezo 2) in neurogenic bladder (NB) of young rats and their effects,so as to provide reference for clinical search of new therapeutic targets. Methods: A total of 30 female young SD rats were divided into 5 groups based on random number table method:sham operation group (sham),2-week nerve transection group (NB-2W),6-week nerve transection group (NB-6W),2-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-2W) and 6-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-6W),with 6 rats in each group.The NB models were constructed by transecting the L6 and S1 spinal nerves of young rats.The NB-2W and NB-6W groups were not intervened after modeling,while the NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups were intraperitoneally injected with Piezos inhibitor GsMTx4 (10 mg/kg) every 2 days after modeling.Bladder cystometry and ultrasound were performed after 2 and 6 weeks of transection.The expressions of Piezos and fibrosis-related indexes (Collagen Ⅰ and α-smooth muscle actin) were detected in bladder tissues. Results: The results of bladder cystometry showed that the basal bladder pressure in NB-2W group was significantly increased,while it was slightly decreased but was still higher in NB-6W group than in the sham group (P<0.05).Basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-2W group than in NB-2W group,but was higher than that in the sham group; basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-6W group than in NB-6W group,but higher than that in the sham group (P<0.05).Compared with the sham group,the NB-2W and NB-6W groups had firstly increased and then decreased maximum cystometric capacity (MCC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-2W group,NB-P-2W group had lower bladder leakage point pressure (BLPP),but higher MCC and bladder compliance (BC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-6W group,NB-P-6W group had significantly lower BLPP but higher MCC and BC (P<0.05).HE and MASSON staining and ultrasound results showed that,with the extension of nerve transection time,bladder fibrosis gradually worsened,the bladder wall became rough and thickened,calculi were visible inside,and hydronephrosis gradually appeared; the degree of fibrosis in NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups was less than that in NB-2W and NB-6W groups,and no hydronephrosis was observed in the upper urinary tract.In addition,Western blotting and immunohistochemical results showed that NB-2W and NB-6W groups had significantly higher relative expression levels of Piezos,Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than the sham group (P<0.01),while NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups had lower relative expression levels of Piezos,Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than NB-2W and NB-6W groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: The increased expressions of mechanosensitive channels Piezos in NB young rats may be involved in the progression of bladder fibrosis,but its mechanism needs further study.

Objective To explore the mediating role of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Methods A total of 1 006 nurses from ten tertiary general hospitals in eight provincial administrative regions were selected as the research subjects using convenient sampling method. Their safety behavior, professional identity and occupational well-being were investigated using Nurse Safety Behavior Scale, Nurse Professional Identity Scale and Occupational Well-being Scale. Structural equation modeling was performed using AMOS 26.0 to examine the mediating effect of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Results The scores for safety behavior, professional identity, and occupational well-being were (53.0±6.1), (123.7±21.2) and (90.8±13.1), respectively. Safety behavior was positively correlated with both professional identity and occupational well-being (correlation coefficients were 0.50 and 0.50, respectively, both P<0.01). Professional identity was positively correlated with occupational well-being (correlation coefficient was 0.51, P<0.01). The multiple linear regression analysis results showed that the higher the professional identity and occupational well-being of nurses, the higher the level of safety behavior (both P<0.05). The result of mediating effect shows that the total effect of occupational identity on safety behavior was 0.498 [95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.405-0.576], and occupational well-being played a mediating role between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses with the mediation effect of 0.156 (95%CI was 0.112-0.205), accounting for 31.33% of the total effect. Conclusion The safety behavior of nurses is at a moderate level. Both professional identity and occupational well-being can affect the safety behavior of nurses. Professional identity can increase the safety behavior of nurses by affecting occupational well-being.

Background::The incidence rate of lung cancer in women has significantly increased over the past decade, and previous evidence has indicated a significant relationship between the elevated levels of sex hormones and the risk of lung cancer. Therefore, we hypothesized that female hormone-related cancer (FHRC) patients, including breast, endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancer patients, may experience a higher risk of developing subsequent lung cancer. This meta-analysis aimed to identify the risk of lung cancer among FHRC patients compared to the general population.Methods::The PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and CNKI databases were searched up to May 11, 2022. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to identify the risk of subsequent lung cancer after FHRC. Subgroup analyses based on the follow-up time and tumor type were also conducted.Results::A total of 58 retrospective cohort studies involving 4,360,723 FHRC participants were included. The pooled results demonstrated that FHRC patients had a significantly increased risk of developing subsequent primary lung cancer (SIR = 1.61, 95% CI: 1.48-1.76, P <0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed an obvious trend of increasing lung cancer risk over time (SIRs for <5 years, ≥5 years, ≥10 years, ≥20 years, and ≥30 years after FHRC: 1.32, 1.59, 1.57, 1.68, and 1.95, respectively). In addition, subgroup analysis stratified by tumor type indicated an increased risk of developing subsequent lung cancer after breast (SIR = 1.25, P <0.001), endometrial (SIR = 1.40, P = 0.019), cervical (SIR = 2.56, P <0.001), and ovarian cancer (SIR = 1.50, P = 0.010). Conclusion::FHRC patients are more likely to develop lung cancer than the general population. Furthermore, the increased risk of subsequent primary lung cancer is more obvious with a longer survival time and is observed in all types of hormone-related cancer.Registration::International Platform of Registered Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Protocols: No. INPLASY202270044; https://inplasy.com/

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of the V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing 4 ( VSIG4 ) gene mutation on the function of microglia in retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Methods:Localization of VSIG4 in the retina was detected by immunofluorescence.HMC3 cells (human microglial cells) were transfected with wild-type (Len-WT) VSIG4 gene, mutant type (Len-Mut) VSIG4 gene and empty vector virus (Len-Cont) and stimulated by the presence or absence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), then divided into control group, LPS-Len-Mut group, LPS-Len-WT group, LPS-Len-Cont group, Len-Mut group, Len-WT group and Len-Cont group.The mRNA expression levels of the inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.Protein expression levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 subunit (P65), and phosphorylated P65 (PP65) were detected by Western blot.Cell phagocytic function was detected by phagocytosis assay.Cell migration ability was detected by cell scratch and transwell migration assay.LPS- stimulated HMC3 cells were co-cultured with 661W cells (mouse retinal photoreceptor cells), and the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) proteins of the cells were detected by Western blot.The number of apoptotic cells was determined by apoptosis assay. Results:VSIG4 was localized to microglia in mouse retina.The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the relative expression levels of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA in HMC3 cells were significantly increased in LPS-Len-Mut group (both at P<0.05).The Western blot results showed that compared with LPS- Len-WT group, the protein expression levels of Nrf2, HO-1, and GPX4 in HMC3 cells were significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group, and the PP65/P65 ratio was significantly increased (all at P<0.05).The phagocytic experiment results showed that the phagocytic rates of HMC3 cells in Len-Cont group, LPS-Len-Cont group, LPS-Len-WT group, and LPS-Len-Mut group were (35.67±3.22)%, (63.67±10.07)%, (84.00±3.46)%, and (64.67±2.31)%, respectively, showing a statistically significant difference ( F=59.06, P<0.001).Compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the phagocytic rate of HMC3 cells was significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group ( P<0.05).The results of cell scratch and transwell migration assay showed that compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the migration rate of HMC3 cells at 24 and 48 hours and the number of invading cells per unit area at 24 hours were significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group (all at P<0.05).Compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the expression ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 protein and the number of cell apoptosis were significantly increased in the LPS-Len-Mut group under the co-culture system (both at P<0.05). Conclusions:VSIG4 is localized to mouse retinal microglia.When the VSIG4 gene in RP mutates, HMC3 cells under LPS stimulation exhibit a series of changes, including activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, decreased activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, increased secretion of inflammatory cytokines, reduced phagocytic and migratory abilities, and increased cell apoptosis in co-culture systems.
