Objective:To evaluate the role of myosin heavy chain 9(MYH9) in gut-vascular barrier damage in septic mice.Methods:Eighty SPF C57BL/6J male mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 4 groups( n=20 each) by the random number table method: sham operation group(Sham group), sham operation + MYH9 inhibitor blebbistatin group(Sham+ Ble group), cecal ligation and perforation(CLP) group, and CLP+ blebbistatin group(CLP+ Ble group). A mouse sepsis model was established using CLP in anesthetized animals. Blebbistatin solution 5 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 1 h before CLP in Sham+ Ble and CLP+ Ble groups, while the equal volume of phosphate buffer was given instead in Sham and CLP groups. Fourteen mice were randomly selected from each group to observe the survival at 24 h after CLP. Blood samples were taken by apical puncture at 24 h after surgery in the remaining 6 mice in each group for determination of the plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and interleukin-6(IL-6)(using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of plasma membrane vesicle-associated protein(PLVAP) in intestinal microvascular endothelial cells(using immunofluorescence), and expression of MYH9, PLVAP, vascular endothelial calreticulin(VE-cadherin) and β-catenin protein and mRNA(by Western bot or fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and for examination of the pathological changes of intestinal tissues. Intestinal damage was assessed and scored according to Chiu. Results:Compared with Sham group, the expression of MYH9 protein and mRNA was significantly down-regulated in Sham+ Ble group, and the survival rate was significantly decreased at 24 h after surgery, Chiu′s scores in intestinal tissues were increased, the plasma concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 were increased, the expression of PLVAP in intestinal microvascular endothelial cells was up-regulated, the expression of MYH9 and PLVAP protein and mRNA in intestinal tissues was up-regulated, and the expression of VE-cadherin and β-catenin protein and mRNA was down-regulated in CLP group( P<0.05). Compared with CLP group, the survival rate was significantly increased at 24 h after surgery, Chiu′s scores in intestinal tissues were decreased, the plasma concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 were decreased, the expression of PLVAP in intestinal microvascular endothelial cells was down-regulated, the expression of MYH9 and PLVAP protein and mRNA in intestinal tissues was down-regulated, and the expression of VE-cadherin and β-catenin protein and mRNA was up-regulated in CLP+ Ble group( P<0.05). Conclusions:MYH9 is involved in gut-vascular barrier damage in septic mice.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of action of Lifei Xiaoji Pill (理肺消积丸, LXP) in the treatment of non small cell lung cancer based on the Warburg effect and the USP47/BACH1 pathway. MethodsFifty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups, model group, LXP group, inhibitor group, LXP + inhibitor group, and cisplatin group, with 10 mice in each group. A lung cancer mouse model was established by subcutaneously injecting Lewis cells. On the next day, the model group mice were given 0.2 ml of saline by gavage daily, the LXP group given 240 mg/(kg·d) of LXP solution once a day by gavage, the inhibitor group intraperitoneally injected with P22077 at a dose of 10 mg/(kg·d) every day, the LXP + inhibitor group given both LXP by gavage and P22077 by intraperitoneal injection once a day, and the cisplatin group received 0.5 mg/(kg·d) cisplatin intraperitoneally every other day. All treatments lasted for 14 days. On the day after the last dose, tumor weight and volume were measured, tumor histopathology was examined by HE staining, apoptosis in tumor tissues was detected by TUNEL staining, and proliferation cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) protein levels were detected by immunohistochemistry. Warburg effect indicators, including glucose concentration, lactate content, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in tumor tissues, were measured. Western Blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels of USP47, BACH1, hexokinase 2 (HK2), and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). ResultsCompared with the model group, all drug intervention groups showed reduced tumor weight and volume, improved tumor pathology, decreased PCNA positive rate, increased apoptosis rate, and reduced expression levels of USP47, BACH1, and HK2 proteins and mRNA (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Except for lactate content in the cisplatin group, the glucose concentration in tumor tissues of other drug intervention groups increased, while lactate content and ATP production decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the LXP group, the LXP + inhibitor group showed more significant improvements in these indicators (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the cisplatin group, the LXP + inhibitor group had lower mRNA expression of HK2 and GAPDH, and lower protein levels of USP47 and HK2 (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the inhibitor group, the cisplatin group had higher HK2 protein levels, while the LXP + inhibitor group showed lower mRNA expression of BACH1, HK2, and GAPDH (P<0.05 or P<0.01). ConclusionLXP significantly inhibits tumor growth in lung cancer mice, and its mechanism of action may be related to inhibiting the Warburg effect via the USP47/BACH1 pathway.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and related characteristics of hospitalized patients with pemphigus, and to analyze their correlations with systemic inflammatory and serological indicators.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from pemphigus patients hospitalized in the Department of Dermatology, Wuhan No.1 Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to assess the correlations between the Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) scores and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) , pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) , serum albumin levels, anti-desmoglein 1/3 (Dsg-1/3) antibody levels, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Linear regression models were used to evaluate the associations of systemic inflammatory and serological indicators with the length of hospital stay and treatment costs. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the effect of these indicators on the risk of infection in pemphigus patients.Results:A total of 235 pemphigus patients were included (112 males and 123 females) , with ages of 58.12 ± 16.47 years. Among them, 73 patients (31.06%) had pemphigus alone, while 162 (68.94%) had comorbidities including tumors, infections, or hypoalbuminemia. PDAI scores showed significantly positive correlations with SII, PIV, and CRP levels ( r = 0.62, 0.58, 0.50, respectively, all P<0.001) . According to PDAI scores, 164 cases (69.79%) were classified as mild pemphigus, 57 (24.26%) as moderate pemphigus, and 14 (5.96%) as severe pemphigus; compared with the patients with mild pemphigus, those with moderate-to-severe pemphigus had significantly increased SII, PIV, anti-Dsg-1 antibody and CRP levels, but significantly decreased serum albumin levels (all P < 0.05) . Among the 235 patients, 213 were diagnosed with pemphigus vulgaris, 9 with pemphigus erythematosus, 10 with pemphigus foliaceus, and 3 with paraneoplastic pemphigus; serum albumin levels and anti-Dsg-1/3 antibody levels differed significantly among patients with different subtypes of pemphigus (all P < 0.05) . The serum albumin level was significantly associated with the length of hospital stay and treatment costs ( β [95% CI]: -0.729 [-0.946 - -0.512], -0.266 [-0.362 - -0.171], respectively, both P < 0.001) ; furthermore, the serum albumin level was identified as a relevant factor for infections in pemphigus patients ( OR = 0.938, 95% CI: 0.883 - 0.995, P = 0.036) . Conclusion:SII, PIV, CRP, serum albumin, and anti-Dsg-1 antibody levels could reflect the severity of pemphigus to some extent, and the serum albumin level was significantly associated with comorbid infections, length of hospital stay, and treatment costs in hospitalized patients with pemphigus.
