AIM:To investigate the effects of overexpressing α-Klotho(KL)in RAW264.7 cells stimulated by oxidative stress on the proliferation, migration, tube-formation and tight junction of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).METHODS:RAW264.7 cells were categorized into control, 4-hydroxynonenal(4HNE), and 4HNE+KL groups, with F4/80 expression assessed via immunofluorescence staining. Three groups of conditional media were prepared for HUVECs and culture divided into Mø-NC, Mø-4HNE, and Mø-4HNE+KL groups. Cell proliferation was evaluated using CCK8 assay, while scratch test and Transwell assays were employed to measure cell migration. Additionally, tube-formation assay was conducted to assess cell tubule formation, and Western blot assay was utilized to detect the protein expression levels of Claudin 5, Occludin and ZO 1.RESULTS:The results of immunofluorescence staining showed that the fluorescence intensity of F4/80 of RAW264.7 cells in the 4HNE group was significantly enhanced compared with the control group, while that of F4/80 in the 4HNE+KL group was significantly decreased compared with the 4HNE group(all P<0.05). The CCK8 assay results revealed a significant increase in the proliferation of HUVECs in the Mø-4HNE group compared with the Mø-NC group. Conversely, the proliferation of the Mø-4HNE+KL group exhibited a significant decrease compared with that in the Mø-4HNE group(all P<0.01). The results of scratch test and Transwell assays demonstrated a significant increase in the migration of HUVECs in the Mø-4HNE group compared with the Mø-NC group, while the migration of the Mø-4HNE+KL group exhibited a significant decrease compared with the Mø-4HNE group(all P<0.01). In the tube-formation assay, it was observed that the number of tubes formed by HUVECs in the Mø-4HNE group was significantly increased compared with the Mø-NC group, while that of tubes formed in the Mø-4HNE+KL group was significantly decreased compared with the Mø-4HNE group(all P<0.01). Additionally, the Western blot results revealed a significant decrease in the relative expression levels of Claudin 5, Occludin, and ZO 1 in the Mø-4HNE group compared with the Mø-NC group. Conversely, in the Mø-4HNE+KL group, there was a significant increase in the relative expression levels of Claudin 5, Occludin, and ZO 1 compared to the Mø-4HNE group(all P<0.01).CONCLUSIONS: KL inhibits the proliferation, migration, and tube-formation of HUVECs while enhancing the tight junction by changing the activation state of macrophages in the diabetic oxidative stress environment.

Objective By studying the changes in the institutional distribution of curative care expenditure(CCE)of the elderly population before and after the comprehensive reform medical-pharmaceutical separation and linkage of medical consumption,it provided data reference for the next step of accurately optimizing the elderly patients flow.Methods A multi-stage stratified whole-group sampling survey was used to select the sample.A System of Health Accounts 2011 was used to calculate the CCE of elderly patients in medical institutions.Results The CCE of medical institutions for the elderly population in Beijing increased from 60.457 billion yuan to 797.54 billion yuan,with an average annual growth rate of 6.83%,the fastest growth rate of 24.04%for community-based health treat-ment center.The percentage of CCE in the community increased from 11.31%to 17.71%,while the percentage of CCE in tertiary hospitals decreased by 4.39 percentage points.The flow of CCE for outpatient patients was obviously opti-mized.Younger elderly outpatient patients are more willing to seek treatment in the community,but the flow di-rection of outpatient treatment for elderly patients is more optimized.The CCE fpr elderly outpatient patients with chronic diseases such as endocrine,nutritional and metabolic diseases and nervous system diseases have been substantially transferred to the community-based health center.Conclusion The reform has different impacts on the treatment of elderly patients with different genders,ages and diseases.It is necessary to strengthen the service capacity building of primary medical institutions,highlight the development characteristics of secondary hospitals,and accurately improve the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system for elderly patients.

Objective To explore the effects of dapnetin's regulation of STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway on immune inflammatory response in sepsis rats.Methods In this study,80 male Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were selected and randomly divided into four groups,20 rats in the sham-operation group,the remaining 60 mice with sepsis were constructed according to cecal ligation puncture(CLP)method and were intraperitoneally injected with different doses of dapnetin.They were divided into no-dapnetin model group(0 mg/kg),low-dose group(2.5 mg/kg),and high-dose group(5 mg/kg),with 20 mice in each group.The model group and sham-operation group were intraperitoneally injected with 0.1%DMSO.The survival rate of rats in each group after 72 h of CLP modeling was observed.Lung,kidney,liver and spleen tissues were collected for histopathological analysis.Serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)were detected by ELISA,T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry,and STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway protein expression was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with sham-operation group,the survival rate of rats in model group was reduced(P<0.05),each organ tissue injury was significant,serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)levels were increased(P<0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were decreased(P<0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were increased(P<0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were downregulated(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,dapnetin in high-dose group improved the survival rate of rats(P<0.05),the injury of all organs and tissues was reduced,and the level of serum inflammatory factors was decreased(P<0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were increased(P<0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were decreased(P<0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Dapnetin can improve the immune inflammatory response of sepsis rats by regulating STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway.
