Objective To investigate the role of long non-coding RNA 01004 (LncRNA01004) in accelerating the malignant progression of breast cancer cells and its potential regulatory mechanism. Methods Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level of LncRNA01004 in breast cancer tissues and cells. The Starbase online database predicted the binding of LncRNA01004 to CPSF1 and verified it through RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation(RIP) analysis. MCF-7 cells were transfected with LncRNA01004 interference sequence (sh-LncRNA01004) or overexpressed vector (LncRNA01004),or co-transfected with Cleavage and Polyadenylation Specific Factor 1 (CPSF1) interference sequence (sh-CPSF1). Cell viability,invasion and apoptosis were detected with CCK-8,Transwell and flow cytometry (FCM). The overexpression and silencing efficiency of LINC01004 and CPSF1 were detected by qPCR. Western blot (WB) analysis of CPSF1 protein,apoptosis-related protein[B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2 Associated X(Bax)]and Epithelial-Mesenchymal transition (EMT) related protein[Epitheia-cadherin(E-cadherin),Nerve-cadherin(N-cadherin),Vimentin,zinc-finger transcription factor(Snail)],and the activity of Cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3) was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results LncRNA01004 was significantly up-regulated in breast cancer tissues (5.14±0.33) compared with paracancer tissues (1.02±0.03),with the statistically significant difference (t=-78.637,P<0.001);LncRNA01004 expression in breast cancer cells was significantly higher than that in normal breast epithelial cells,the difference between groups is statistically significant (F=142.248,P<0.001). Compared with the Control group,LncRNA01004 significantly inhibited the proliferation (42.15±2.11 vs 100.02±0.65) and invasion (18.65％±1.44％ vs 41.36％±1.57％) of MCF-7 cells,induced apoptosis (16.58％±1.52％ vs 5.24％±1.12％),increased the activity of Caspase-3 (2.93±0.711. vs 51±0.43) and the expression of Bax (2.74±0.39 vs 1.01±0.02) protein,and inhibited the expression of BcL-2 (0.32±0.07 vs 1.02±0.03) protein,with the statistically significant difference (t=3.075～19.332,all P<0.05). Significantly increased compared with Control group,the silent LncRNA01004 E-cadherin (3.06±0.37 vs 1.01±0.02) protein levels,lower N-cadherin (0.44±0.11 vs 1.00±0.01),Vimentin (0.39±0.13 vs 1.02±0.03) and Snail(0.30±0.08 vs 1.01±0.03) protein levels,with the statistically significant difference (t=9.989～17.164,all P<0.05).LncRNA01004 binds to CPSF1 and promotes CPSF1 protein expression.Silencing CPSF1 inhibited the proliferation and invasion of MCF-7 cells,induced cell apoptosis,and counteracted the effect of LncRNA01004 overexpression on MCF-7 cells. Conclusion LncRNA01004 may promote EMT through up-regulation of CPSF1,and then promote proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells,inhibit cell apoptosis,and participate in the malignant progression of breast cancer.

BACKGROUND:Gait dysfunction is one of the significant reasons for patient dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty.Clinical studies have identified a relationship between the preoperative strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles and postoperative gait dysfunction,but the exact nature of this correlation is not yet fully understood.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation between the preoperative strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles and postoperative gait dysfunction in total knee arthroplasty.METHODS:A retrospective analysis was conducted on longitudinal data from 70 patients who underwent unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty.Preoperative measurements included peak torque of the extensor and flexor muscles,peak torque/body weight,and total work.Six months postoperatively,the Timed Up and Go Test and gait speed were measured.Ridge regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing postoperative gait function.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperative peak torque,peak torque/body weight,and total work of the extensor muscles,as well as the peak torque and total work of the flexor muscles,showed a very strong positive correlation with postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).The preoperative flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had a strong positive correlation with postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).Preoperative extensor and flexor muscle peak torques,peak torque/body weight,and total work showed a very strong negative correlation with results from postoperative Timed Up and Go Test(P＜0.001).(2)Ridge regression analysis indicated a 94.2％likelihood that preoperative extensor muscle peak torque,peak torque/body weight,and total work,along with flexor muscle peak torque and total work,had a positive impact on gait speed after total knee arthroplasty(P＜0.001).The preoperative flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had a negative impact on postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).There was an 87.7％likelihood that preoperative extensor and flexor muscle peak torques,peak torque/body weight,and total work,along with flexor muscle peak torque and total work,had a negative impact on postoperative Timed Up and Go Test(P＜0.05),while the flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had no impact on the Timed Up and Go Test(P＞0.05).(3)It is indicated that the strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles prior to total knee arthroplasty correlates with postoperative gait speed and Timed Up and Go Test,and can predict the outcomes of postoperative gait function.Enhancing preoperative knee muscle exercises may be a way to reduce the incidence of gait dysfunction following total knee arthroplasty.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of limb motor rehabilitation program based on patient health engagement (PHE) model in patients with hemorrhagic stroke, and to provide reference for the limb motor rehabilitation management of hemorrhagic stroke patients.Methods:Through literature review and Delphi expert correspondence, a limb motor rehabilitation program for hemorrhagic stroke patients based on the PHE model was constructed. A non-contemporaneous controlled study was conducted, 45 hemorrhagic stroke patients hospitalized in the Department of Neurosurgery of Shanxi Bethune Hospital from March to August 2022 were selected by convenience sampling method as the control group, and routine exercise rehabilitation measure was given, 45 hemorrhagic stroke patients from September 2022 to February 2023 were selected as the intervention group, a limb motor rehabilitation program based on PHE model was implemented on the basis of control group. The functional exercise compliance, limb motor function, daily activity ability, emotional and social dysfunction of patients in the two groups were observed before intervention, 1 and 3 months after intervention respectively.Results:A total of 85 patients with hemorrhagic stroke were included. There were 42 patients in the intervention group, 25 males and 17 females, aged (52.07 ± 9.91) years old, and 43 patients in the control group, 21 males and 22 females, aged (53.93 ± 10.52) years old. There were no significant differences in the functional exercise compliance, limb motor function, daily activity ability, emotional and social dysfunction of patients before intervention between the two groups. At 3 months after intervention, the functional exercise compliance score in the intervention group was (40.83 ± 7.92) points, higher than that in the control group (37.14 ± 6.44) points, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 2.36, P<0.05). At 1 and 3 months after intervention, the scores of limb motor function and daily activity ability in the intervention group were (27.12 ± 6.74), (33.67 ± 6.54) points and (61.31 ± 6.72), (74.40 ± 8.71) points, which were higher than (24.91 ± 6.03), (27.02 ± 6.59) points and (52.33 ± 9.78), (60.12 ± 10.03) points of the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.06-7.01, all P<0.05), the scores of emotional and social dysfunction were (75.52 ± 22.09) and (58.33 ± 18.88) points, which were lower than (86.02 ± 23.04), (78.51 ± 21.67) points of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t = - 2.14, - 4.57, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The limb motor rehabilitation program based on the PHE model could improve the exercise compliance of patients with hemorrhagic stroke, improve the limb motor function and daily activity ability of patients, alleviate negative emotions, and reduce the level of social dysfunction.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on 46 patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who received endovascular treatment at the Strategic Support Force Medical Center from January 2015 to August 2022. Twenty-seven patients underwent balloon angioplasty alone and 19 patients underwent acute stent implantation. The baseline characteristics, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score of the responsible vessels, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 90 days after operation, incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality of the two groups were evaluated.Results:The proportion of effective recanalization of the offending vessels (mTICI≥2b) in the acute stenting group was slightly higher than that in the balloon angioplasty group (16/19 vs. 81.5%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Besides, there was no significant difference in the median of mRS between the acute stenting group [3.0(0, 4.0)] and the balloon angioplasty group [4.0(1.0, 5.0)] 90 days after operation ( P>0.05). In terms of safety, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The effect of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis is not inferior to that of balloon angioplasty, and it does not increase the risk of intracranial bleeding complications.

BACKGROUND: Sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2a (SERCA2a) is a key protein that maintains myocardial Ca 2+ homeostasis. The present study aimed to investigate the mechanism underlying the SERCA2a-SUMOylation (small ubiquitin-like modifier) process after ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/RI) in vitro and in vivo . METHODS: Calcium transient and systolic/diastolic function of cardiomyocytes isolated from Serca2a knockout (KO) and wild-type mice with I/RI were compared. SUMO-relevant protein expression and localization were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence in vitro and in vivo . Serca2a-SUMOylation, infarct size, and cardiac function of Senp1 or Senp2 overexpressed/suppressed adenovirus infected cardiomyocytes, were detected by immunoprecipitation, triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC)-Evans blue staining, and echocardiography respectively. RESULTS: The results showed that the changes of Fura-2 fluorescence intensity and contraction amplitude of cardiomyocytes decreased in the I/RI groups and were further reduced in the Serca2a KO + I/RI groups. Senp1 and Senp2 messenger ribose nucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression levels in vivo and in cardiomyocytes were highest at 6 h and declined at 12 h after I/RI. However, the highest levels in HL-1 cells were recorded at 12 h. Senp2 expression increased in the cytoplasm, unlike that of Senp1. Inhibition of Senp2 protein reversed the I/RI-induced Serca2a-SUMOylation decline, reduced the infarction area, and improved cardiac function, while inhibition of Senp1 protein could not restore the above indicators. CONCLUSION I/RI activated Senp1 and Senp2 protein expression, which promoted Serca2a-deSUMOylation, while inhibition of Senp2 expression reversed Serca2a-SUMOylation and improved cardiac function.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intra-arterial tirofiban infusion during endovascular reperfusion therapy in patients with acute cardiogenic cerebral embolism.Methods:Clinical data of 72 patients with acute cardiogenic cerebral embolism caused by large artery occlusion were retrospectively analyzed in Department of Neurology, Strategic Support Force Medical Center from August 2015 to August 2020.Among those, 52 patients were treated with intra-arterial tirofiban, the other 20 patients were treated with control medication. The baseline characteristics, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score of responsible vessels, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 90 days after operation, incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were evaluated and compared in two groups.Results:The proportion of effective recanalization of the offending vessels (mTICI≥2b) in tirofiban group was higher than that in control group (92.3% vs. 75.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.104). At 90 days after operation, the rate of patients with good prognosis (mRS≤2) in tirofiban group (61.5%) was significantly higher than that in control group (35.0%) ( P<0.05). The incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Intra-arterial tirofiban infusion in patients with acute cardiogenic cerebral embolism is effective and feasible, which improves the prognosis without increasing the risk of intracranial bleeding complications.
