The objective of this study was to evaluate the protective effect and possible related mechanisms of Sophora subprostrate polysaccharide(SSP)on intestinal epithelial cell injury in-duced by Tert-Butyl hydroperoxide(TBHP).The optimal dose of TBHP and the safe concentra-tion range of SSP were determined using the MTT method.In this study,IPEC-J2 cells were divid-ed into five groups:the control group,the model group,the SSPL group,the SSPM group and the SSPH group,and the cell morphology,cell survival rate and LDH release rate were observed and measured.The content of intracellular reactive ROS was observed and determined by DCFH-DA staining.The content of MDA in the supernatant and the antioxidant index of cells were determined by the reagent kit.Transcriptome technology was employed to analyze the potential mechanisms by which SSP mitigates oxidative damage in IPEC-J2 cells.The results showed that treatment with 625 μmol/L TBHP for 2 h significantly reduced the activity of IPEC-J2 cells,markedly increased LDH release(P＜0.05),inhibited CAT superoxide SOD and glutathione GPX activities(P＜0.05),and significantly elevated MDA and ROS levels(P＜0.05).Compared to the model group,after SSP treatment,intracellular ROS levels were significantly reduced(P＜0.05),while CAT,SOD,and GPX activities were significantly increased(P＜0.05),and MDA content and LDH re-lease were significantly decreased(P＜0.05)in a dose-dependent manner.Transcriptome analysis revealed that TBHP treatment significantly altered the transcriptional profiles of IPEC-J2 cells,while SSP treatment could restore the transcriptional profiles of the damaged cells to a certain ex-tent.Gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)indicated that the differentially expressed genes between the CC and TBHP groups were significantly enriched in oxidative phosphorylation,ribosome,and other pathways.Meanwhile,the differentially expressed genes between the SSP and TBHP groups were mainly enriched in oxidative phosphorylation,ap-optosis,glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism,and other pathways.These results suggest that TBHP may disrupt normal oxidative respiration in IPEC-J2 cells by affecting oxidative phospho-rylation and interfering with metabolism pathways involving glycine,serine,and threonine,leading to oxidative damage in intestinal epithelial cells.Conversely,SSP treatment may potentially restore oxidative phosphorylation processes,alleviate lysosomal damage,reduce cell apoptosis,and miti-gate oxidative damage in intestinal epithelial cells through modulation of oxidative phosphoryla-tion,apoptosis,and lysosomal pathways.This discovery provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of SSP in alleviating oxidative damage in the porcine intestinal tract.

This study was performed to explore the impact of glutamine(Gln)on the anti-tumor immune response of CD8+ T cells and its mechanism.TCGA database was used to analysis the relationship between tumor Gln metabolism and the quantity and functionality of infiltrating CD8+ T cells.CRISPR/Cas9 was employed to knock down GLS expression in mouse MC38 cells,and a mouse tumor model was established.Flow cytometry was conducted to assess tumor proliferation,apoptosis,and the quantity and functionality of tumor-infiltrating immune cells.Lymphocytes isolated from health individuals were treated with Gln-deficient media,complete media or media supplemented with GSH,RSL3 in vitro.Then the apoptosis,the expression levels of GPX4,Lipid-ROS,and effector function protein of CD8+ T cells were detected by flow cytometry.Furthermore,RNA-seq was performed to analyze the differential gene expression on the Gln-depleted CD8+ T cells.Data showed that tumor Gln metabolism was inversely associated with the quantity and functionality of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells.Low expression of GLS in MC38 cells could inhibit C57BL/6 tumor growth,decrease Ki-67 expression,promote casepase-3 expression,increase the amount of tumor-infiltrating immune cells,suppress PD-1,TIM-3,and LAG-3 expression,and enhance CD137,CD107a,IFN-γ and TNF-α expression in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells.RNA-seq results indicated an upregulation of ferroptosis genes TFRC,HMOX1,CYBB and SLC7A11 in CD8+ T cells following glutamine deficiency.Gln deficiency led to lower CD137,CD107a,IFN-γ,GSH,GPX4 expression,increased Lipid-ROS level,and caused cell death in CD8+ T cells.Supplementation of GSH upregulated GPX4 expression,downregulated Lipid-ROS level,and increased IFN-γ secretion in CD8+ T cells.In conclusion,Gln deficiency inhibits the effector function of CD8+ T cells by inducing ferroptosis,and promotes tumor growth.

Objective To explore the effects of empowerment education model on glycemic control and self-management behavior of community patients with diabetes. Method A total of 120 diabetics from 2 different communities were set as the observation group and control group. The control group was treated by routine medications and health education and the observation group was intervened with empowerment education model. After intervention for 6 months, the patients′blood glucose index and the diabetes self-management behavior were assessed and compared by scale of the diabetes self-care activities (SDSCA) between the two groups. Result By the end of the study, the glycemic index and SDSCA score in the former group were both significantly decreased than those in the control group (P<0.05), indicating the patients in the experiment group had better glycemic control and self-management behaviors compared with those in the control group. Conclusions Empowerment education model can arouse the internal motivation of patients to change their behaviors from passive to active acceptance in the health education. Empowerment education model can enhance diabetes patients′self-management conduct and the glycemic level.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Aegisy retrievable filter in inferior vena cava interventional treatment for acute deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity. Methods Acute or sub acute unilateral lower extremity deep vein thrombosis ( deep vein thrombosis, DVT) patients in our hospital were selected, and Aegisy filter was put into the inferior vena cava through the femoral, and thrombolytic therapy was carried out in the next day. Limb conditions was observation after 10 to 15 days, confirmed by vascular ultrasound and angiography of lower limb vein after no fresh or free thrombus. The filter was removed with protector, anticoagulant therapy after review the venography of lower limb postoperative. Results All Aegisy filter were put into patients, and there were no obvious forward jumping and drawing back occurred during the release of the filters, and all Aegisy filter had a better position. Placement of a filter everage time was (16. 8 ± 1. 3) days, 89 cases were successfully recovery filter. The effct of Aegisy filter on the patients with lower extremity deep venous thrombosis after treatment is obvious effect, no pain, and no symptom of pulmonary embolism. Conclusion Aegisy retrievable inferior vena cava filter has many advantages in clinical use. The filter can be placed to the scheduled position accurately,and it is very powerful in captu-ring the thrombus,it can be hold in the inferior vona cava for long time before it is planed to be retrieved,and its retrieval success is very high. Moreover,with high technieal successful rate the implantation of Aegisy retrievable inferior vena cava filter is very safe and effective for the interventional treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity.
