Objective To investigate the regulatory role and mechanism of mitochondrial riboso-mal protein S35(MRPS35)in the proliferation,invasion,and migration of colon cancer cells.Meth-ods A total of 120 colon cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues from patients undergoing radical resection for colon cancer were collected.Human colon cancer cell lines(HCT116,SW480,SW620)and a human normal colon epithelial cell line(NCM460)were cultured.Bioinformatics analysis,real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction,Western blot,immunohistochemical(IHC)analysis,and cellular functional experiments(plate clone formation assay,scratch test,Transwell migration assay,CCK-8 cell viability assay)were conducted to evaluate the expression and regulatory mechanism of MRPS35 in colon cancer.Results Bioinformatics analysis showed that the expression level of the MRPS35 gene was higher in colorectal cancer tissues than in adjacent normal tissues(P＜0.05).The relative expression levels of MRPS35 mRNA and MRPS35 protein were higher in human colon cancer cell lines(HCT116,SW480,SW620)than in NCM460 cells(P＜0.05).The relative ex-pression level of MRPS35 protein was higher in colon cancer tissues than that in adjacent normal tis-sues(P＜0.05).The expression level of MRPS35 was significantly correlated with tumor diameter,tumor differentiation,and T stage(P=0.002,0.021,0.036).Patients with high MRPS35 expres-sion had a higher overall survival rate than those with low MRPS35 expression(Log-rank P=0.015).After knockdown of MRPS35,the abilities of colon cancer cell cloning,proliferation,invasion,and migration were significantly enhanced.Furthermore,the expression of Wnt1,β-Catenin,and their downstream target proteins increased significantly after MRPS35 knockdown.Conclusion MRPS35 is significantly overexpressed in both colon cancer tissues and colon cancer cells,and it may inhibit the occurrence and development of colon cancer by regulating the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway.Therefore,MRPS35 has the potential to become a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for colon cancer.

Objective:To evaluate safety and efficacy of B-type suture method ileostomy.Methods:Clinical data from 204 patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection combined with protective ileostomy was analysed. Patients were divided into B-type suture ileostomy group ( n=67) and traditional ileostomy group ( n=137). Results:compared with traditional ileostomy group, B-type suture ileostomy group showed statistically significant differences in total operation time [(164±26) min vs. (172±24) min, t=2.229, P=0.027], ileostomy time [(12.7±2.3) min vs. (14.8±2.2) min, t=-6.565, P<0.001], blood loss [(57±20) ml vs. (69±31) ml, t=-2.797, P=0.006], postoperative hospital stay [(10.2±1.9) d vs. (11.8±2.3) d, t=-4.851, P<0.001], specimen incision infection rate (0 vs. 5.1%, P=0.047), postoperative body pain [82 (79-84) vs. 78 (76-80), Z=-5.805, P<0.001], and ileostomy incorporation time [(46±11) min vs. (51±12) min, t=-2.540, P=0.012]. Conclusion:B-type suture ileostomy for prophylactic ileostomy in laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer is safe and feasible.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on renal function after laparoscopic radical nephrectomy. METHODS: We reviewed the clinical data of 282 patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), who underwent laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (LRN) in the Department of Urology, Third Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from November, 2020 and June, 2022.According to whether DEX was used during the operation, the patients were divided into DEX group and control group, and after propensity score matching, 99 patients were finally enrolled in each group.The incidence of acute kidney injuries were compared between the two groups.Serum creatinine (sCr) data within 3 months to 1 year after the operation were available in 51 patients, including 26 in DEX group and 25 in the control group, and the incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: After propensity score matching and adjustment for significant covariates, there were no significant differences in postoperative levels of sCr, cystatin C (CysC), β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), hemoglobin (Hb), or C-reactive protein (CRP), extubation time, incidence of AKI, or length of hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05).The intraoperative urine volume was significantly higher in DEX group than in the control group (P < 0.05).A significant correlation between AKI and CKD was noted in the patients (P < 0.05).The incidence of CKD did not differ significantly between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION DEX can not reduce the incidence of AKI or CKD after LRN.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Angelicae Pubescentis Radix (APR) on the activity of endocannabinoid hydrolase and N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase (NAAA), and to demonstrate the mechanism of anti-inflammatory effect of APR by in vitro lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation model.

METHODAPR essential oil was extracted by steam distillation, and the chemical components were identified by GC-MS. Enzymatic activity was performed by using recombinant NAAA-overexpressing protein and detected by LC-MS. Lipids were extracted by methonal/chloroform mixure and analyzed by LC-MS. mRNA and protein expression levels of proinflammatory genes were examined by Real time-PCR and ELISA assay kit, respectively. The content of nitro oxide (NO) was detected by Griess reaction.

RESULTTwenty active components were identified from APR essential oil which inhibited NAAA activity in a dose-dependent manner. On the LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells, APR essential oil reversed LPS-suppressed N-palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) contents in a dose-dependent manner and reduced LPS-induced proinflammatory genes, TNF-alpha and IL-6. Moreover, APR essential oil reduced the mRNA expression of iNOS, subsequently reduced the release of NO, a classic inflammatory marker.

CONCLUSIONThe research demonstrated that the effect of APR on inflammation is mediated by the inhibition of NAAA activity, which increase the cellular endobioactor PEA levels and decrease proinflammatory factor. The results suggest that APR can serve as a nature NAAA inhibitor.
