Background The pathogenesis of silicosis has not been fully elucidated, and microRNAs (miRNA) may be involved in the occurrence and development of silicosis. Objective To investigate the effect of miR-204-3p inhibitor on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process and silicosis fibrosis in silicon dioxide dust-induced alveolar epithelial cells. Methods A co-culture model of macrophages and epithelial cells was established using a Transwell chamber. NR8383 macrophages were seeded into the upper chamber of the Transwell, and RLE-6TN cells were seeded into the lower chamber. After 24 h of culture, the medium in the lower chamber was discarded, washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and replaced with serum-free medium. The cells were divided into four groups: control group, silicosis group, miRNA NC group, and miR-204-3p inhibitor group. The lower chamber was transfected with miRNA NC for the miRNA NC group or the miR-204-3p inhibitor for the miR-204-3p inhibitor group. The lower chambers of the remaining two groups were added by equal amounts of serum-free medium. After 24 h, except for the control group that received an equal volume of serum-free medium, the upper chambers of the remaining three groups were treated with 800 μg·mL−1 silicon dioxide dust. Morphological changes in each group were observed under a microscope. The mRNA and protein expression levels of EMT-related factors, including α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), Vimentin, N-Cadherin, and E-Cadherin, were detected by reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot. The mRNA and protein expression levels of fibrosis-related factors, including Collagen I, Collagen III, and Fibronectin, were also assessed by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The fluorescence expression intensities of α-SMA, N-Cadherin, and E-Cadherin were evaluated by immunofluorescence. Results The morphological observation revealed that RLE-6TN cells in the control group exhibited a regular oval shape. After treatment with silicon dioxide, the cells predominantly displayed a long spindle shape. Following the intervention with the miR-204-3p inhibitor, the number of long spindle-shaped cells increased, and the intercellular gaps widened. The RT-qPCR results showed that, compared with the control group, the silicosis group exhibited significantly higher relative mRNA expression levels of EMT-related markers (α-SMA, Vimentin, and N-Cadherin) (P<0.05), while the relative mRNA expression level of E-Cadherin was significantly reduced (P<0.05); the relative mRNA expression levels of fibrosis-related markers (Collagen I, Collagen III, and Fibronectin) were also significantly elevated (P<0.05). Compared with the miRNA NC group, the miR-204-3p inhibitor group showed significantly increased relative mRNA expression levels of α-SMA, Vimentin, and N-Cadherin (P<0.05), decreased E-Cadherin mPNA expression (P<0.05), and elevated mPNA expression of Collagen I, Collagen III, and Fibronectin (P<0.05). The Western blot analysis indicated that, compared with the control group, the silicosis group had significantly higher protein expression levels of α-SMA, Vimentin, and N-Cadherin (P<0.05), lower E-Cadherin protein expression (P<0.05), and increased protein expression of Collagen I, Collagen III, and Fibronectin (P<0.05). Compared with the miRNA NC group, the miR-204-3p inhibitor group exhibited significantly elevated protein expression levels of α-SMA, Vimentin, and N-Cadherin (P<0.05), reduced E-Cadherin expression (P<0.05), and increased protein expression of Collagen I, Collagen III, and Fibronectin (P<0.05). The immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that, compared with the control group, the silicosis group showed enhanced fluorescence intensities of α-SMA and N-Cadherin and reduced fluorescence intensity of E-Cadherin. Compared with the miRNA NC group, the miR-204-3p inhibitor group exhibited increased fluorescence intensities of α-SMA and N-Cadherin and decreased fluorescence intensity of E-Cadherin. Conclusion The miR-204-3p inhibitor may exacerbate the EMT process and silicosis fibrosis in silicon dioxide-induced RLE-6TN cells. miR-204-3p plays a negative regulatory role in silicosis fibrosis.

The cooccurrence of NPM1, FLT3-ITD, and DNMT3A mutations (i.e., triple mutation) is related to dismal prognosis in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) receiving chemotherapy alone. In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, we aimed to identify whether allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) could overcome the poor prognosis of DNMT3AmutNPM1mutFLT3-ITDmut AML across four transplant centers in China. Fifty-three patients with triple-mutated AML receiving allo-HSCT in complete remission were enrolled. The 1.5-year probabilities of relapse, leukemia-free survival, and overall survival after allo-HSCT were 11.9%, 80.3%, and 81.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that more than one course of induction chemotherapy and allo-HSCT beyond CR1 were associated with poor survival. To our knowledge, this work is the largest study to explore the up-to-date undefined role of allo-HSCT in patients with triple-mutated AML. Our real-world data suggest that allo-HSCT could overcome the poor prognosis of DNMT3AmutNPM1mutFLT3-ITDmut in AML.

Background Long-term exposure to free silica particles will lead to fibrosis of lung tissue, and abnormal expression of microRNA (miRNA) may affect the occurrence and process of fibrosis. Objective To observed possible intervention effect of miR-204-3p overexpression adenovirus on silicosis fibrosis induced by silica dust using a silicosis rat model via non-exposed intratracheal instillation. Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group, silicosis model group, miRNA-NC group, and miR-204-3p intervention group. Under ether anesthesia, rats in the silicosis model group, miRNA-NC group, and miR-204-3p intervention group were injected with 1 mL (50 mg·mL−1) of free silica dust suspension into the trachea, while the control group was injected with the same volume of normal saline. After 30 d of dust exposure, the miR-204-3p intervention group was injected with rno-mir-204 adenovirus vector to overexpress miR-204-3p, and the miRNA-NC group was given empty virus vector. After 30 d of normal feeding, the animals were sacrificed by chloral hydrate anesthesia, and the lung tissue was taken for subsequent experiments. The relative expression level of miR-204-3p in lung tissue of rats in each group was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). HE staining, Masson staining, and Sirius red staining were used for pathological observation. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of Fibronectin and Collagen I in lung tissue of rats in each group. RT-qPCR was used to detect the relative gene expression levels of fibrosis markers Fibronectin, Vimentin, Collagen I, and Collagen III in lung tissue of rats in each group. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of fibrosis markers Fibronectin, Vimentin, Collagen I, and Collagen III in lung tissue of rats in each group. Results The anatomical features of lung tissue in the control group were pink lung tissue with soft texture and smooth surface, while those in the silicosis model were grayish white tissue with hard texture and scars and grayish white silicon nodules on the surface. Compared with the silicosis model group, the color of lung tissue in the miR-204-3p intervention group became ruddy, the surface was smooth, and the texture became soft. The staining results showed that the alveolar wall of the control group was thin, there were a small number of capillaries in the alveoli, and the alveolar structure was clear and complete. In the silicosis model group, the alveolar wall became thicker, the pulmonary septum was partially broken, the alveolar structure was defective, and a large amount of collagen fibers were deposited. The alveolar structure of the miR-204-3p intervention group was relatively clear and there was a small amount of collagen fiber deposition. RT-qPCR results showed that compared with the control group, the relative expression levels of miR-204-3p in lung tissue of the silicosis model group and the miRNA-NC group were decreased (P<0.05), and the relative expression level of miR-204-3p in lung tissue of the miR-204-3p intervention group was increased (P<0.05). The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with the control group, the expression levels of Fibronectin and Collagen I in lung tissue of the silicosis model group were increased (P<0.05). Compared with the silicosis model group, the relative expression levels of Fibronectin and Collagen I in lung tissue of the rats in the miR-204-3p intervention group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The results of RT-qPCR and Western blot showed that compared with the control group, the relative protein and gene expression levels of fibrosis factors Fibronectin, Vimentin, Collagen I, and Collagen III in lung tissue of the silicosis model group increased (P<0.05). Compared with the silicosis model group, the relative gene and protein expression levels of fibrosis factors Fibronectin, Vimentin, Collagen I, and Collagen III in lung tissue of rats in the miR-204-3p intervention group were decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion Silica dust can cause lung fibrosis in rats, and overexpression of miR-204-3P in vivo can reduce silicosis fibrosis in rats caused by silica dust.

Objective:To observe the protective effects of Zhiganqing Prescription on the liver of C57BL/6J non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) mice induced by high fat diet and its effects on PI3K/Akt/FoxO1 signaling pathway, insulin resistance (IR) and gluconogenesis.Methods:A total of 48 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were divided into control group ( n=8) and modeling group ( n=40) according to random number table method. The control group was fed with ordinary diet, and the model group was fed with high-fat diet. The NAFLD model was established after 8 weeks of feeding. The modeling group was divided into model group, Pioglitazone group, Zhiganqing Prescription low-, medium-, and high-dosage group ( n=8 in each group) according to random number table method, and drug intervention lasted for 8 weeks. The body mass of mice was measured regularly during administration. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels were measured at 0 and 8 weeks of administration, and oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) were conducted. After the experiment, serum levels of GPT, GOT, TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, FINS and C-P were detected and HOMA-IR was calculated. The pathological morphology of liver was observed by HE and PAS staining. The expression levels of PI3K and p-Akt were detected by IHC staining. The protein expression levels of PI3K, Akt, p-Akt, FoxO1, p-FoxO1, G6PC and PCK1 were detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with model group, the body weight of mice in each administration group decreased at 4, 6 and 8 weeks ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). At the 8th week of administration, the levels of FBG and OGTT AUC in each administration group decreased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01), the levels of GPT, TC, TG and LDL-C decreased ( P<0.01), and the GOT levels in Zhiganqing Prescription medium- and high-dosage groups decreased ( P<0.01). The HDL-C level in Zhiganqing Prescription medium-dosage group decreased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the HOMA-IR level in Zhiganqing Prescription low- and medium-dosage groups decreased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). The levels of FINS and C-P in each administration group increased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the expressions of PI3K protein and p-Akt/Akt, p-FoxO1 /FoxO1 protein in liver tissues increased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). The protein expressions of G6PC and PCK1 decreased ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion:Zhiganqing Prescription can effectively control the body mass, blood glucose, liver function and blood lipids of NAFLD mice, improve IR and gluconeogenesis, the mechanism of which may be related to the activation of PI3K/Akt/FoxO1 signaling pathway.
