ObjectiveAs a common lifestyle habit, alcohol consumption has a controversial association with the onset of Parkinson’s disease (PD). To demonstrate the correlation between alcohol consumption and PD and to identify associated genes, we integrated findings from clinical surveys, genomics, transcriptomics, and animal experiments. MethodsWe investigated the alcohol consumption rates (including both before and after disease onset) among 244 PD patients in China and 177 PD patients from the U.S. NHANES database. Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed using genome-wide association study (GWAS) data for three alcohol-related traits and seven PD-related datasets from the MRC IEU OpenGWAS database. Transcriptomic data from the substantia nigra of PD patients were obtained from three GEO datasets (GSE7621, GSE20141, and GSE49036) to analyze RIT2 gene transcription. Finally, three groups of animal experiments (water/20% ethanol/20% liquor, with 4 C57BL/6J mice per group) were conducted to examine changes in brain RIT2 gene expression and transcriptomic profiles following alcohol consumption. ResultsThe alcohol consumption rates among PD patients in China and the U.S. (9%-18.87%) were significantly lower than the general population rates of 15%-45% in their respective regions (P<0.001), suggesting a possible negative association between alcohol consumption and PD. Subsequently, in 21 bidirectional MR analyses using 3 alcohol-related GWAS datasets and 7 PD-related GWAS datasets, the forward MR analyses (alcohol intake as exposure, PD as outcome) yielded 12 negative associations (OR_IVW<1) and 9 positive associations (OR_IVW>1). Among these, only two negative associations reached statistical significance: alcohol intake frequency (OR_IVW=0.75, 95% CI: 0.60-0.93, P=0.010) and alcohol consumption (OR_IVW=0.20, 95% CI: 0.05-0.83, P=0.026). The forward MR analysis (alcohol intake→PD) identified 235 SNPs, annotated to 316 genes, while the reverse MR analyses (PD→alcohol intake) identified 37 SNPs, annotated to 53 genes. Notably, only the RIT2 gene appeared in both the forward and reverse MR analyses (alcohol intake→PD: rs28597806, rs8083110; PD→alcohol intake: rs4588066). RIT2 is selectively expressed in the human brain (FPKM: 5.259±2.103), with low or no expression in peripheral tissues (FPKM: <1). Analysis of three human substantia nigra transcriptomic datasets revealed a decreasing trend in RIT2 gene expression in PD patients (GSE20141 array signal: 3.49±1.23 vs. 2.33±0.87, P=0.044). Animal experiments demonstrated that administration of 20% ethanol or 20% liquor (approximately 8% ethanol) stimulated a >2-fold upregulation of RIT2 gene expression in the mouse brain. Furthermore, transcriptomic sequencing revealed that the two alcohol-treated groups exhibited 96 (20% ethanol vs. water control) and 4 (20% liquor vs. water control) differentially expressed genes, respectively, indicating that low-dose alcohol consumption can achieve RIT2 upregulation while minimizing impact on other brain genes. In addition to its anti-infective effects, low-dose alcohol consumption primarily influences signaling pathways related to neurodegenerative diseases such as PD and Prion diseases. ConclusionAlcohol consumption is generally considered as a harmful lifestyle habit. However, some studies have also shown a lower risk of mortality among individuals who consume low doses of alcohol (100 g/week of ethanol) or drink occasionally. Currently, one of the research focuses on alcohol consumption is whether the human body can benefit from low-dose alcohol intake. This study provides new evidence supporting a negative association between alcohol consumption and PD, and for the first time, through MR analysis, identifies the RIT2 gene as a potential mediator of the effect of alcohol consumption on PD. RIT2 is selectively expressed in the human brain. Building upon existing evidence indicating downregulated RIT2 gene expression in PD pathogenesis, our experiments confirm that low-dose alcohol consumption can upregulate RIT2 expression in the brain. In brief, alcohol consumption may suppress the pathogenesis of PD by upregulating RIT2 expression in the substantia nigra. China is facing a serious problem of population aging. This study offers important insights for long-term PD prevention and treatment strategies, with the aim of benefiting more potential PD patients through lifestyle modifications, thereby improving the quality of life of the aging population and reducing the economic burden on healthcare.

Objective To analyze the current status of occupational stress among primary and secondary school teachers, and explore the dose-response relationship between weekly work hours and occupational stress. Methods A total of 1 252 teachers from 13 primary and secondary schools in three prefecture-level cities of a central province of China were selected as the research subjects by the convenience sampling method. The Core Occupational Stress Scale was used to assess occupational stress levels of the teachers. Multivariate logistic regression analysis combined with restricted cubic spline models was applied to study the dose-response relationship between weekly work hours and occupational stress. Results The average weekly work hours were (55.3±15.9) hours, with 78.6% of teachers working more than 40.0 hours per week. The total score of occupational stress was (40.3±8.2) points, and the detection rate of occupational stress was 29.8%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis combined with restricted cubic spline models revealed a linear dose-response relationship in weekly work hours and occupational stress among teachers (P for overall trend <0.05, P for nonlinearity was 0.22). Result of age-stratified analysis showed that weekly work hours had a linear dose-response relationship with occupational stress risk in teachers aged 21-<31 and 31-<46 years (P for overall trend <0.05, P for nonlinearity was 0.71 and 0.27, respectively). However, no association was found between weekly work hours and occupational stress risk among teachers aged ≥46 years (P for overall trend =0.08, P for nonlinearity was 0.09). Conclusion There is a linear dose-response relationship between weekly work hours and occupational stress among primary and secondary school teachers in the province, with younger teachers being more susceptible to suffer occupational stress due to long working hours.

Arachidonic acid can be transformed into a variety of metabolites that trigger an inflammatory response through cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, cytochrome P450 enzymes, and other metabolic pathways. Moreover, it plays a key role in the occurrence and development of inflammatory diseases. In recent years, multi-target drugs based on the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway have become an important direction of anti-inflammatory drug research. This article summarizes the opportunities and challenges of arachidonic acid metabolic pathways as well as their interference in the development of anti-inflammatory drugs, reviews the research progress of multi-target drug design, synthesis, and anti-inflammatory activity based on the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway, and discusses the difficulties and prospects of multi-target drugs based on metabolic pathways in anti-inflammatory drug development, aiming to provide some reference and inspiration for the study of multi-target anti-inflammatory drugs based on the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway.

Objective To explore the change of serum chloride ion(Cl-)level and its relationship with prognosis in patients with acute heart failure(AHF).Methods A total of 289 patients with AHF admitted to the hospital from September 2020 to March 2023 were included in the study.Clinical and laboratory data of patients were collected,serum Cl-levels were detected at admission and discharge,and the difference of Cl-levels was calculated(△Cl-).Patients with AHF were divided into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group according to the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events during follow-up.Clinical and laboratory data of the two groups were compared.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between se-rum △Cl-level and poor prognosis of AHF by using restricted cubic spline(RCS)curve drawn by the func-tions in the rms package.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the value of△Cl-levels in predicting the risk of adverse cardiovascular events within 1 year of discharge from hospital in patients with AHF.Results The age and the proportion of patients with atrial fibrillation in the poor progno-sis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and Cl-at discharge in the poor prognosis group were lower than those in the good prognosis group,and the levels of brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)and △Cl-in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group,with statistical sig-nificance(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that LVEF was an independent protective factor for poor prognosis of AHF,and age,BNP and △Cl-levels were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of AHF(P＜0.05).RCS curve analysis showed a significant linear association between △Cl-levels and the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with AHF within 1 year of discharge.ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of △Cl-level in predicting the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in AHF pa-tients within 1 year after discharge was 0.857,the sensitivity was 88.37％,and the specificity was 69.46％.Conclusion The change of serum Cl-level of patients with AHF is related to the prognosis of patients with AHF,and monitoring the serum Cl-level of patients with AHF can guide the early clinical intervention.

OBJECTIVE: A new three-dimensional(3D) classification of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tibial avulsion fracture based on computed tomography(CT) features was established and the significance in clinical treatment was explored in this study. METHODS: From May 2013 to November 2023, 43 cases of PCL tibial avulsion fracture in the Second Hospital of Jilin University were analyzed retrospectively, including 29 males and 14 females, aged (34.3±8.5) years. According to traditional Meyers and McKeever classification, 3 cases were typeⅠ;2 cases of typeⅡ;38 cases were type Ⅲ. Based on the characteristics of CT images, 43 patients were given specific treatment strategies and followed up to evaluate the curative effect. According to the degree of fracture displacement, involved range and the integrity of fracture block demonstrated by CT images, the new three-dimensional classification of PCL avulsion fracture was established. Kappa coefficient was used for consistency test. RESULTS: A new 3D classification of PCL tibial avulsion fracture was established. TypeⅠwas the non-displaced fracture (displacement degree ≤3 mm), in which typeⅠa was the avulsion range limited in the posterior intercondylar fossa, and Ib was the avulsion range beyond the posterior intercondylar fossa. TypeⅡrepresented the displaced fracture in the posterior intercondylar fossa (avulsion limited to the posterior intercondylar fossa and fracture displacement>3 mm), in which typeⅡa represented a slight displacement with a intact broken block and the posterior elevation of the avulsion (hinge mechanism), typeⅡb represented the complete separation of fracture ends with a intact fracture block, and typeⅡc was the comminuted fracture. Type Ⅲ was the displaced fracture beyond the posterior intercondylar fossa (avulsion involving the articular surface of the tibial plateau or the intercondylar ridge and the degree of displacement > 3 mm), among which type Ⅲa was the simple fracture with intact broken block, type Ⅲb represented the comminuted fracture, and type Ⅲc was the complex fracture with tibial plateau fracture. According to this new 3D classification, 43 patients were classified as type Ia in 2 cases and typeⅠb in 1 case;typeⅡa in 2 cases, typeⅡb in 15 cases and typeⅡc in 7 cases;type Ⅲa in 2 cases, type Ⅲb in 5 cases and type Ⅲc in 9 cases. All the 43 cases in this study achieved bone union. At the last follow-up, according to the hospital for special surgery knee score(HSS)evaluation system for the knee joint function, 27 cases were excellent, 11 cases were good, 5 cases were fair. The average Kappa value of inter-observer reliability in the first stage was 0.793, and the second stage was 0.855. The average Kappa value of the whole stage was 0.839, indicating high level of consistency. The average Kappa value of intra-observer reliability was 0.893, indicating high level of consistency. CONCLUSION The 3D classification of PCL tibial avulsion fracture is intuitive, demonstrating a high level of reliability. It has a certain guiding significance for the selection of clinical treatment methods, and it is suggested to be promoted and applied as a new classification system in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the effect of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) on bladder cancer by regulating phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway via tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein epsilon peptide (YWHAE) and to examine its mechanism.Methods:The gene expression profiling interactive analysis (GEPIA) database was used to analyze HER2 expression in 408 bladder cancer tissues and 19 adjacent normal tissues. HER2 expression was then compared between 215 tumor protein 53 ( TP53) mutant and 193 TP53 non-mutant bladder cancer tissues. Tissue samples were obtained from patients who underwent surgical resection for bladder cancer in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital between June 2010 and March 2015. Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were performed to validate HER2 and p53 protein expression, as well as analyze their correlation. Bladder cancer T24 cells were transfected with short hairpin RNA targeting HER2 (shHER2) control (shCon) or shHER2, designated as shCon and shHER2 groups. Bladder cancer UMUC3 cells were transfected with overexpression control (oeCon), HER2 overexpression (oeHER2), oeYWHAE, or short hairpin RNA targeting murine double minute 2 (MDM2) (shMDM2), and were designated as the oeCon, oeHER2, oeYWHAE and shMDM2 groups, respectively. UMUC3 cells were then treated with either 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide or 100 mmol/L dihydrotestosterone and designated as the solvent control and dihydrotestosterone groups, respectively. Additionally, oeCon and oeYWHAE UMUC3 cells were treated with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 (25 μmol/L), designated as the LY294002 and LY294002+oeYWHAE groups. On this basis, shHER2 was transfected into the oeCon and oeYWHAE groups, which were then designated as the shHER2-2 and shHER2-2+oeYWHAE groups. The relative expression levels of HER2, YWHAE mRNA, and HER2, p53, YWHAE, MDM2, phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt), and Akt proteins were determined using quantitative reverse transcription PCR and Western blotting. Cell Counting Kit-8, Transwell, and wound-healing assays were performed to evaluate the impact of HER2 on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of bladder cancer cells. Mass spectrometry and co-immunoprecipitation assays were performed to confirm the interaction between YWHAE and HER2, and immunofluorescence was used to detect p53 expression. BALB/c nude mice were subcutaneously injected with 5×10 6 UMUC3 cells in the scapular region. According to the random number table method, they were divided into negative the control group and the transfection group, with 3 mice in each group, and transfected with oeCon and oeHER2, respectively. Tumor volume and weight were measured and calculated, and HER2 and p53 protein expression in bladder cancer tissues was validated by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the two groups. One-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test was used for comparison of multiple groups. Results:GEPIA database analysis demonstrated significantly higher levels of HER2 expression in bladder cancer tissues and in TP53 mutant bladder cancers compared with adjacent normal tissues (both P<0.01). HER2 expression was inversely correlated with p53 expression ( r=?0.6). Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting confirmed that p53 expression level in the bladder cancer tissues (5.32±0.11) was higher than that in the adjacent normal tissues (2.00±0.01), while HER2 expression level in the bladder cancer tissues (1.13±0.02) was lower than that in the adjacent normal tissues (6.20±0.06) (both P<0.01). HER2 mRNA and protein expression, absorbance at 450 nm wavelength ( A450) values, and cell invasion number and cell migration distance in the shHER2 group were all lower than those in the shCon group [0.25±0.01 vs 1.00±0.05, 1.00± 0.01 vs 3.26±0.09, 1.36±0.04 vs 1.65±0.06, (107.00±5.51) vs (202.70±11.61) cells, and (298.70±6.94) vs (454.30±7.84) μm] ( P<0.05, 0.01). HER2 mRNA and protein expression, absorbance ( A450) values, and cell invasion number and cell migration distance in the oeHER2 group were all higher than those in the oeCon group [0.78±0.02 vs 0.46±0.01, 2.05±0.02 vs 1.00±0.00, 1.23±0.06 vs 0.78±0.03, (136.30±5.24) vs (59.00±5.51) cells, and (153.70±7.27) vs (66.33±33.84) μm] ( P<0.05, 0.01). HER2 protein expression level in the dihydrotestosterone group was higher than that in the solvent control (1.83±0.19 vs 1.00±0.00), while p53 protein expression level in the dihydrotestosterone group was lower than that in the solvent control group (1.10±0.10 vs 1.53±0.15) (both P<0.01). The differentially expressed protein between the dihydrotestosterone group and solvent control group was YWHAE. The expression levels of YWHAE mRNA and protein in the dihydrotestosterone group (1.10±0.12 and 3.05±0.03) were higher than those in the solvent control group (0.30±0.12 and 1.00±0.00) (both P<0.01). YWHAE protein expression level in the oeHER2 group was higher than that in the oeCon group (1.37±0.08 vs 1.00±0.00) ( P<0.01) and YWHAE expression level in the bladder cancer tissues was higher than that in the adjacent normal tissues ( P<0.01). YWHAE expression positively correlated with HER2 expression ( r=0.4). Co-immunoprecipitation confirmed direct binding between HER2 and YWHAE. Overexpression of YWHAE significantly reduced p53 expression. The relative expression level of MDM2 protein in the oeYWHAE group (2.73±0.09) was lower than that in the oeCon group (3.43±0.12) ( P<0.01). The relative expression level of MDM2 protein in the shMDM2 group (1.00±0.00) was lower than that in the oeYWHAE group, and the relative expression level of p53 protein (2.00±0.00) was higher than that in the oeYWHAE group (1.07±0.07) (both P<0.01). The relative expression levels of YWHAE and p-Akt protein in the oeYWHAE group (1.23±0.09, 3.00±0.06) were higher than those in the oeCon group (1.00±0.00, 1.13±0.03) ( P<0.05, 0.01). The relative expression level of p-Akt protein in LY294002 group (2.20±0.06) was lower than that in the oeCon group (3.30±0.10), and the relative expression level of p53 protein (2.10±0.06) was higher than that in the oeCon group (1.00±0.00) (both P<0.01). The relative expression level of p-Akt protein in LY294002+oeYWHAE group (2.00±0.06) was lower than that in the oeYWHAE group (3.53±0.14), and the relative expression level of p53 protein (2.10±0.06) was higher than that in the oeYWHAE group (1.00±0.06) (both P<0.01). The relative expression levels levels of YWHAE, p-Akt and MDM2 protein in the shHER2-2 group (1.60±0.15, 1.70±0.06, 0.80±0.06) were lower than those in the oeCon group (2.30±0.06, 2.30±0.06, 1.13±0.09), and the relative expression level of p53 protein (1.83±0.12) was higher than that in the oeCon group (1.00±0.00) ( P<0.05, 0.01). The relative expression level of YWHAE protein in the shHER2-2+oeYWHAE group (2.00±0.06) was lower than that in the oeCon group ( P<0.01), and the relative expression levels of MDM2 and p53 protein (2.63±0.15, 1.13±0.03) were higher than those in the oeCon group ( P<0.05, 0.01). The tumor volume, tumor weight, and relative expression levels of HER2, YWHAE, p-Akt, and MDM2 proteins on day 28 in the transfection group [(5 133.0±185.6) mm 3, (0.65±0.12) g, 2.23±0.02, 4.00±0.12, 3.33±0.06 and 2.24±0.02] were higher than those in the negative control group [(2 633.0±88.2) mm 3, (0.33±0.07) g, 0.98±0.02, 1.27±0.03, 1.29±0.02 and 1.46±0.06] (all P<0.01). The relative expression level of p53 protein (1.21±0.04) was lower than that in the negative control group (3.29±0.04) ( P<0.01). Conclusions:HER2 may promote the malignant progression of bladder cancer by regulating the PI3K-Akt pathway via YWHAE, thereby facilitating MDM2 nuclear translocation and p53 degradation. This ultimately enhances the proliferative, migratory, and invasive capacities of bladder cancer cells.

MethodsThe rat's trigeminal neuralgia model was constructed by infraorbital injection of Talci Pulvis， and the rats were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， carbamazepine group （60 mg·kg^-1）， Cranial Painkiller granules group （2.70 g·kg^-1）， and low， medium， and high dosage groups of Cranial Painkiller pills' extract powder （1.35， 2.70， 5.40 g·kg^-1） according to the basal mechanical pain thresholds， and there were 10 rats in each group. The drug was administered by gavage to each group 2 h after modeling， and distilled water was given by gavage to the normal and model groups under the same conditions once a day for 10 d. Von Frey brushes were used to measure mechanical pain thresholds in rats. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to detect pathological changes in the trigeminal ganglion， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the inflammatory factors interleukin-1 （IL-1）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， interleukin-8 （IL-8）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） levels in rat serum， as well as neuropeptide substance P （SP） and β-endorphin （β-EP） levels in rat brain tissue. Western blot technique was used to detect the levels of NLRP3， ASC， Caspase-1， and OTULIN proteins in rat brain tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the pain threshold of rats in the model group showed a continuous significant decrease （P<0.01）. The pathological damage of brain tissue was significant （P<0.01）， and the inflammatory levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α in serum were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. The level of the SP in the brain tissue was significantly elevated （P<0.01）， and the level of β-EP was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， while the level of OTULIN was significantly reduced， and NLRP3， ASC， and Caspase-1 protein levels were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. After administration of the drug， compared with the model group， the pain threshold of each dose group of the Cranial Painkiller pills' extract powder and the Cranial Painkiller granules group significantly increased （P<0.01）. The inflammatory levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α and SP levels significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and the β-EP levels were significantly elevated （P<0.01）， while the levels of OTULIN protein were significantly elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the levels of NLRP3， ASC proteins were decreased （P<0.01）in high dose Cranial Painkiller pills' extract powder. Meanwhile， compared with those in the model group， the trigeminal ganglion lesions of rats in the Cranial Painkiller pills' extract powder and Cranial Painkiller granules groups showed different degrees of improvement （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe Cranial Painkiller pills' extract powder has significant therapeutic effects on the rat model of trigeminal neuralgia induced by infraorbital injection of Talci Pulvis， and its mechanism is related to the improvement of OTULIN-regulated neuroinflammation.

ObjectiveTo construct an animal model of respiratory syncytial virus（RSV）-infected pneumonia suitable for preclinical studies. MethodsThe virulence of RSV to the four cell lines was observed by cytopathic effect （CPE）， and 50% tissue culture infective dose（TCID₅₀） was calculated. Twenty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a normal group and a model group. Six BALB/c-hIGF1R mice served as the humanized IGF1R model group. Except for the normal group， the other groups received intranasal RSV infection on days 1 and 3 to establish a viral pneumonia model. The efficacy of establishing an RSV-induced pneumonia animal model based on humanized insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor （IGF1R） mice was evaluated by measuring organ indices， peripheral blood lymphocyte percentages， pulmonary pathology and imaging， and pulmonary viral load. Additionally， ten BALB/c mice served as normal group， and thirty-two BALB/c-hIGF1R mice were randomly assigned to humanized IGF1R model group， ribavirin group （82.5 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹）， and high and low dose groups of Lianhua Qingwen （3.3 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹ ， 1.65 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹）， with 8 mice per group. The viral load in lung tissue was measured after ribavirin and Lianhua Qingwen intervention， and the model was applied to the evaluation of anti-RSV drugs. ResultsIn the lungs of the humanized IGF1R model group， large solid and diffuse ground-glass shadows were seen， and the lung volume was significantly increased （P<0.01）. The lung index was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and both the spleen index and thymus index were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The percentages of CD3⁺ and CD4⁺T cells were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and there was a large amount of inflammation and stasis in the perivascular area of the lung tissue， which was predominantly characterized by lymphocytes. The endothelium of blood vessels was partially detached， with a small number of eosinophils. After infecting BALB/c-hIGF1R mice with RSV， the expression of viral nucleic acids in the lung tissue of the mice was significantly increased， with significant differences compared with the normal group （P<0.01）. The expression of viral nucleic acids in the ribavirin group and the high and low dose groups of Lianhua Qingwen was significantly reduced， with significant differences compared with the normal group （P<0.01）. ConclusionHumanized IGF1R mice are more susceptible to respiratory SVC， and the animal model of RSV-infected pneumonia based on humanized IGF1R mice was successfully constructed， which is suitable for the evaluation of anti-RSV drugs.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of the Tibetan medicine Sanwei Doukoutang （SWDK） on cognitive dysfunction in mice suffering from Alzheimer's disease （AD） and its related mechanism. MethodsFifty SPF 5 × FAD mice were randomly divided into model group， total ginsenoside group（0.04 g·kg^-1）， high-， medium-， and low-dose groups of SWDK （32.60， 16.30， 8.15 g·kg^-1）， with 10 mice in each group， and ten wild-type mice of the same age were used as the normal group， male and female in 1∶1. Gavage administration was performed once daily for 8 weeks. The Morris water maze test and contextual fear memory experiment were used to observe learning and memory function. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was utilized to observe the changes in the pathomorphology of brain tissue in mice. The levels of synaptophysin （SYP） and postsynaptic dense substance 95 （PSD95） in mice serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The positive expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor（BDNF） in the dentate gyrus （DG） region of mouse brain tissue was observed by immunohistochemistry （IHC）. The protein levels of BDNF， Wnt family member 3A（Wnt3a）， and β-catenin were detected in the hippocampus of mice by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group of mice， the model group of mice had significantly more complex swimming routes and lower swimming speed （P<0.01）， significantly lower percentage of time spent in the target quadrant （P<0.01）， and a significantly lower percentage of freezing time （P<0.05）. The number of neurons in the hippocampal region of mice was obviously reduced and unevenly arranged. The levels of SYP and PSD95（P<0.01） in the serum of mice were reduced， and the positive expression of BDNF in the DG region of the brain tissue of mice was reduced. The levels of hippocampal BDNF， Wnt3a， and β-catenin proteins in the hippocampus of mice were obviously reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the mice in the SWDK group and the total ginsenoside group had significantly shorter swimming routes， the high- and medium- dose SWDK groups significantly higher swimming speeds （P<0.01）， significantly higher percentage of time spent in the target quadrant （P<0.01）， obviously higher percentage of Freezing time （P<0.05）， and obviously more neurons in the hippocampal region of the mice with tighter arrangement. The mice had elevated levels of serum SYP （P<0.05， P<0.01）， PSD95 （P<0.01）， increased BDNF-positive cells in the DG region of brain tissue， and obviously elevated levels of BDNF， Wnt3a， and β-catenin proteins in the hippocampus of mice （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSWDK can significantly improve the cognitive dysfunction of AD mice， and its mechanism may be related to regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， which promotes BDNF expression and thereby enhances synaptic plasticity， allowing neuronal signaling to be restored.
