Objective:To establish a model of reactive Th17 cells proliferation induced by collagen type Ⅱ(C Ⅱ)in vitro and investigate its influencing factors.Methods:The splenic lymphocytes of normal and CIA mice were isolated and divided into groups.They were given inactivated or non-inactivated C Ⅱ or different concentrations of IL-23(2,10,50 ng/mL),or IL-23p19 antibody.Culturing for 60 hours,the ratio of CD4+RORγt+Th17 cells was detected by flow cytometry.Then,the results obtained are ana lyzed,and the corresponding conclusions are drawn.Results:After 60 hours of culture in vitro,the ratio of Th 17 cells stimulated by inactivated or non-inactivated C Ⅱ in normal mouse spleen lymphocytes was significantly lower than that before culture,and the ratio of Th17 cells not stimulated by C Ⅱ in CIA mouse spleen lymphocytes was also significantly lower than that before culture,while the ratio of Th17 cells stimulated by inactivated C Ⅱ or non-inactivated C Ⅱ in CIA mouse spleen lymphocytes was significantly higher than that before culture,and there was a significant difference compared with the CIA control group(P＜0.05).However,there was no statistical difference in the ratio of Th17 cells between the two groups without inactivated C Ⅱ and inactivated C Ⅱ(P=0.44).After the analysis of the data obtained from the study,it was further concluded that different concentrations of IL-23 did not affect the Th17 cell ratio of spleen lymphocytes of CIA mice in vitro,but after adding IL-23p19 antibody neutralization reagent,the Th17 cell ratio of spleen lymphocytes of CIA mice in vitro decreased significantly,with a statistical difference compared with the blank control group(P＜0.01).Conclusions:This study established an in vitro Th17 cell proliferation model induced by type Ⅱ collagen,exploring the effects of IL-23 and collagen activity on Th17 cell proliferation.The results showed that CⅡ stimulation significantly promoted Th17 cell proliferation in CIA mice,with both active and inactivated CⅡ inducing proliferation.IL-23 was found to be essential for the maintenance of Th17 cells,although its direct proliferative effect was limited.These findings provide new experimental evidence and theoretical support for the mechanism research of rheumatic diseases and IL-23/IL-17 pathway-targeted therapies,with important implications for immune regulation and drug development.

Aim To investigate the effects of astragalo-side Ⅳ(AS-Ⅳ)on proliferation,apoptosis and the discoid domain receptor 1/phosphatidylinositol 3-ki-nase/protein kinase B(DDR1/PI3K/Akt)signaling pathway of HL-60 cells in acute myeloid leukemia.Methods The experiment was divided into the control group(Control),AS-Ⅳ intervention group,control+DDR1 gene interference group(Control+sh-DDR1),AS-Ⅳ+DDR1 gene overexpression group(AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1)and AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1+PI3K inhibi-tor group(AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1+LY294002).After 72 h of AS-Ⅳ intervention,the proliferation inhibition rate was measured by CCK-8;apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry and Hoechst33258 staining;and the expression levels of DDR1/PI3K/Akt signaling path-way proteins,proliferation and apoptosis-related pro-teins were detected by Western blot.Results Com-pared with the Control group,the AS-Ⅳ group showed significantly lower proliferation rate and higher apopto-sis rate(P＜0.01),cells showed apopt otic morpholog-ical changes such as nuclear sequestration and nuclear fragmentation,and the expression of DDR1,p-PI3K,p-Akt,CyclinD1 and Bcl-2 proteins were significantly lower and caspase-3 protein expression was significant-ly higher(P＜0.01).Compared with the AS-Ⅳ group,cell proliferation rate was significantly higher and apoptosis rate was significantly lower in the AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1 group(P＜0.01),and DDR1,p-PI3K,p-Akt,CyclinD1,and caspase-3 protein expression were significantly higher and Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly lower in the AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1 group(P＜0.01).Compared with the AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1 group,the cell proliferation rate was significantly lower and apoptosis rate was significantly higher in the AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1+LY294002 group(P＜0.01),and DDR1,p-PI3K,p-Akt,CyclinD1,and caspase-3 protein expression were significantly lower and Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly higher in the AS-Ⅳ+OVE-DDR1+LY294002 group(P＜0.01).Conclu-sion AS-Ⅳ can inhibit proliferation and promote ap-optosis in acute myeloid leukemia HL-60 cells by a mechanism related to the inhibition of DDR1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Nanoparticle delivery systems have good application prospects in the field of precision therapy, but the preparation process of nanomaterial has problems such as short in vivo circulation time, easy recognition, and clearance by the immune system in the body. In recent years, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mediated by natural cell membranes have become a research hotspot to address these issues. The natural membrane biomimetic nanoparticle delivery system cleverly integrates the advantages of natural biofilm "autologous" and "artificial" functional carriers by using endogenous cell membranes to modify the surface of nanocarriers, endowing them with characteristics such as tumor targeting, low immunogenicity, and long blood circulation. Currently, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems have been used in the treatment of malignant tumors, cardiovascular diseases, bacterial infections, and other diseases. This paper analyzes the development status and current research hotspots of natural cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mainly reviews the latest research progress of red blood cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems in the field of disease treatment in recent years. It focuses on exploring the advantages, future development prospects, and limitations of biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems based on red blood cell membrane camouflage in improving drug delivery, to provide a reference for the in-depth research and development of this system.

Aim To investigate the protective effect of Shengmai Yin on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in-jury(MI/RI)in vitro and in vivo and to unravel the underlying mechanism.Methods SD rats were divid-ed into the sham group,model group,and Shengmai Yin group(SM).Rat MI/RI model was established.Cardiac function,infarct area,pathological changes,cardiomyocyte apoptosis,macrophage infiltration,and serum cTnT and CK-MB levels were measured.The mRNA and protein expressions of Calpain-1 and Cal-pain-2 were assessed.The hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)model was constructed in H9c2 cells.The active ingredients of Shengmai Yin were screened using net-work pharmacology and verified by CCK-8.In the car-diomyocytes H/R model,Fluo-4 AM staining was used to detect the changes of Ca2+levels.Results Com-pared with model group,LVEF and LVFS of Shengmai Yin-treated rats increased,myocardial infarction area was reduced,while myocardial tissue injury was allevi-ated.Myocardial apoptosis rate and the number of macrophages were reduced.Similarly,cTnT and CK-MB levels decreased.In addition,the expression lev-els of Calpain-1 and Calpain-2 mRNA and protein de-creased in the SM treatment group.Under the H/R model,all the active ingredients of Shengmai decoction had protective effects on cardiomyocytes,and the treat-ment could reduce the level of Ca2+in cardiomyocytes.Conclusions Shengmai Yin has protective effects on MI/RI in rats.This effect may be related to the de-crease in Ca2+levels,as well as Calpain-1 and Calap-in-2 mRNA and protein expression.

Objective To investigate the adverse pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with increased nuchal translucency(NT).Methods A total of 376 pregnant women at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2023 to January 2024 were selected as research subjects,who had a diagnosis of fetal NT ≥ the 95th percentile and complete pregnancy outcomes for singleton pregnancies.The fetuses were divided into simple thickening group(n=320)and thickening with structural abnormalities group(n=56)based on NT ultrasound results.The interventional prenatal diagnosis outcomes and pregnancy outcomes of two groups were compared.Results The rate of chromosomal abnormalities and the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes were higher in thickening with structural abnormalities group compared to simple thickening group with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The overall incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in NT thickened fetuses was 31.65％,but after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations,the good pregnancy outcome rate in NT thickened fetuses was 98.09％.Conclusion NT thickening is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in fetuses,and the risk of poor fetal outcome is further increased when NT thickening combined with structural abnormalities in early pregnancy,but the pregnancy outcome is better in fetuses with NT thickening after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations.

AIM To investigate the effects of Qifu Yixin Granules on cardiac inflammation in a rat model of heart failure.METHODS The rats were induced into chronic heart failure(CHF)models by 6-week intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin followed by the random assignment of the successful rat models into the model group,the captopril group(22.5 mg/kg),and the low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose Qifu Yixin Granules groups(2.84,5.67,11.34 g/kg),in contrast to the normal rats of the blank group.The rats had their body weight monitored;their cardiac function assessed by echocardiography;their serum levels of NT-proBNP,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1 and CRP measured by ELISA;their cardiac morphological alterations observed by HE and Masson staining;their cardiac protein expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot;and their cardiac mRNA expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB measured by RT-qPCR.RESULTS Compared to the blank group,the model group exhibited significantly reduced body weight,LVEF and LVFS(P＜0.01),alongside significantly elevated LVEDD,LVESD,and serum concentrations of NT-proBNP,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1 and CRP(P＜0.01).Additionally,the model group displayed greater myocardial inflammatory cell aggregation,increased collagen deposition(P＜0.01);and upregulated myocardial protein and mRNA expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB(P＜0.01).Compared to the model group,the groups intervened with captopril or medium/high dose Qifu Yixin Granules demonstrated significantly increased body weight,LVEF and LVFS(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);significantly reduced LVEDD,LVESD,and serum levels of the aforementioned indicators(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);mitigated inflammation and collagen deposition(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and downregulated myocardial protein and mRNA expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Qifu Yixin Granules attenuate cardiac inflammation and improve cardiac function in doxorubicin-induced CHF rats;this therapeutic effect is mediated by inhibiting the activation of the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.
