Objective:To investigate the mechanism by which microRNA-183 (miR-183) regulates the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) through targeting phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) and modulating the AKT signaling pathway, and to identify potential therapeutic targets for DN.Methods:(1) Bioinformatic analysis of miRNA expression: MiRNA expression datasets from diabetic nephropathy (DN) and control samples were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differential expression analysis was performed, and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were identified using thresholds of an absolute log 2 (fold changes) >1 and an adjusted P-value<0.05. The results were visualized in a volcano plot and a heatmap. (2) Animal model establishment and in vivo interventional studies: A DN rat model was induced by administration of a high-fat/high-sucrose diet combined with an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Rats were randomly assigned into four groups ( n=10 per group) using a random number table: control group, DN model group, miR-183 inhibitor negative control (NC) group, and miR-183 inhibitor group. The latter two groups received tail vein injections of the miR-183 inhibitor NC or the miR-183 inhibitor, respectively, for eight consecutive weeks. Parameters including fasting blood glucose, 24-hour urinary protein excretion, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured. Renal histopathological changes were assessed by HE and PAS staining. Furthermore, the expression of candidate miRNAs from patient data was validated, and the mechanism of action of miR-183 was investigated using quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting. (3) In vitro mechanistic investigations in cultured podocytes: Mouse podocyte clone-5 (MPC5) cells were cultured in vitro and subjected to the following conditions: normal glucose (5.3 mmol/L glucose), high glucose (30 mmol/L glucose), and osmotic control (5.3 mmol/L glucose+19.5 mmol/L mannitol). Cells in the logarithmic growth phase were transfected with the miR-183 inhibitor (100 nmol/L), miR-183 mimic (50 nmol/L), or their corresponding negative controls. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was conducted to validate the binding interaction between miR-183 and the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of PTEN. The effects of miR-183 on the AKT signaling pathway, apoptosis-related proteins, and cell viability were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR, Western blotting, and the cell counting kit-8 assay, respectively. Results:MiR-183 expression was markedly upregulated in renal tissues from DN patients and DN model rats (both P<0.05). Inhibition of miR-183 significantly reduced renal miR-183 levels by 90.2% ( P<0.01), decreased fasting blood glucose by 65.3% ( P<0.01), and improved renal function parameters, including reductions in urinary protein (40.3%), blood urea nitrogen (32.1%), urinary albumin excretion rate (22.5%), and serum creatinine (40.2%) (all P<0.01). Histological analyses showed attenuation of glomerular lesions and glycogen accumulation. Bioinformatic prediction and experimental validation identified PTEN as a direct target of miR-183, confirmed by dual-luciferase assays. In vitro, miR-183 inhibition increased PTEN expression, reduced AKT phosphorylation, promoted podocyte proliferation, and suppressed apoptosis (upregulation of Bcl-2 and downregulation of cleaved-caspase-3). These effects were abolished upon PTEN knockdown. Conclusions:miR-183 aggravates DN by targeting PTEN and activating the AKT signaling pathway. Inhibition of miR-183 improves renal function and reduces podocyte apoptosis, suggesting miR-183 as a potential therapeutic target for DN.

Objective:To establish a qualitative analysis of Rhodiola crenulata for determing six components inclu-ding gallic acid,salidroside,tyrosol,1,2,3,4,6-O-gallic glucose,rhodiosin,oxorlin-7-O-rhamnoside by HPLC,and to find out the feasibility of the method of linear calibration using two reference substances in qualitative analysis of chromatographic peaks.Methods:The real retention time of 6 components in Rhodiola crenulata on 19 chromatographic columns were determined.Gallic acid and rhodiosin were selected as the reference substances,and the method of linear calibration using these 2 substances was used to predict the retention time.Tyrosol was also chosen as the reference to predict the retention time with the relative retention time method(RRT method).Comparing the accuracy of these two methods.Results:Compared to the RRT method,the method of linear calibration with two reference substances was more accurate for predicting the retention time and more adapatable for many kinds of chromatographic columns.Conclusion:As a new alternative reference substance method,the method of linear calibration using two reference substances can assist chromatographic peak determination better and has broad application prospects.

Objective To explore the potential mechanism of Gegen qinlian decoction(GGQLD)containing serum in ameliorating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells based on transcriptomics.Methods An in vitro model of NAFLD was constructed by free fatty acid(FFA)-induced fat accumulation in HepG2 cells,and cells were treated with different proportions of GGQLD and pioglitazone-containing serum.The lipid deposition in each group was detected by oil red O staining,and the lipid content in each group was evaluated by triglyceride level.Transcriptome technology was used to detect the differentially expressed genes between the intervention groups,and GO annotation analysis,KEGG enrichment analysis and protein interaction(PPI)network analysis were performed to verify the differentially expressed genes by RT-PCR.Results Compared with normal control group,the number of red lipid droplets in the model control group increased,and the triglyceride content increased significantly(P＜0.01).Compared with model control group,the content of red lipid droplets in the GGQLD medium dose group showed a decreasing trend,and the intracellular triglyceride content decreased significantly(P＜0.05).A total of 608 differentially expressed genes were identified by transcriptome analysis,of which 163 differentially expressed genes were up-regulated and 445 differentially expressed genes were down-regulated.GO enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly involved in the regulation of MAP kinase phosphatase activity.KEGG analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly involved in MAPK signaling pathway.RT-PCR results showed that GGQLD up-regulated the expression level of MAP2K6 mRNA and down-regulated the expression levels of FOSL1,CTSL,DUSP5,DUSP1,JUN,HSPA6,IL1A,IL11 and RELB mRNA,which may be mainly involved in MAPK signaling pathway.Conclusion GGQLD has the effect of improving NAFLD,which may be related to MAPK signaling pathway.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
