Lipids play biological roles in brain growth and development,including energy stor-age,cellular signal transduction,hormone synthesis,and homeostasis maintenance.Lipid dysregula-tion is closely associated with the occurrence and progression of neurodegenerative diseases,making brain lipids important biomarkers for assessing early diagnosis and prognosis of neurological disorders.This article reviewed abnormal lipid metabolism in Alzheimer's disease,Parkinson's disease,and multiple system atrophy,focusing on the possible mechanisms of interaction between β-amyloid(A β),α-synuclein(α-syn),phosphorylated Tau protein,and associated lipids and their metabo-lites.It also summarized key targets for improving neurodegeneration through intervention in brain lip-id metabolism pathways.

Objective To investigate the impact of a peer support model on the mental health of caregivers and the perceived social support and psychiatric symptoms of the mental disorder patients under their care. Methods Patients with mental disorders undergoing long-term community-based rehabilitation and their primary caregivers were recruited for this study. A total of 44 pairs of eligible patients and caregivers were selected based on a 1∶1 matching ratio. Systematic peer support activities were conducted exclusively for the caregivers. The General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) and the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) were administered before and after the intervention to assess the mental health status of caregivers. The Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) and the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) were employed to evaluate the patients' perceived social support and psychiatric conditions before and after the intervention. Results A total of 44 valid questionnaires from caregivers and 42 from patients were collected. The GHQ score and the total scores, the number of positive item, positive total scores, and positive mean scores of and SCL-90 of caregivers were significantly lower after the intervention compared to pre-intervention (P < 0.05 or P < 0.001). For patients, the family support score, extracurricular support score, and total score of the PSSS were significantly higher post-intervention compared to pre-intervention (P < 0.05 or P < 0.001). Compared to pre-intervention, patients'scores on anxiety and depression, lack of energy, thought disturbance, activation, hostility and suspicion, and the total score on the BPRS were significantly lower after the caregiver peer support intervention (P < 0.001). Conclusion The peer support model contributes to improving the mental health of caregivers for patients with mental disorders and enhancing the patients'psychiatric conditions.

Objective To establish a scientific training program that takes into account both anaerobic and aerobic training for pilots,and to explore the appropriate ratio of aerobic and anaerobic training.Methods According to the physical examination standards for pilots,a total of 16 healthy subjects aged 18-24 were selected from two batches.The two batches of subjects were trained with different aerobic and anaerobic ratios.Training period was 3 months.The changes in cardiopulmonary function of the subjects before and after training were evaluated using the cardiopulmonary function exercise testing system(CPET),and the changes in anaerobic capacity were evaluated using changes in strength as an indicator.Results After training,the weight load of the subjects in the two training programs,including barbell squats,leg flexion and hard pull,and barbell under 10RM and 3RM,was significantly increased(P<0.001),and there was no statistically significant difference in anaerobic strength growth between the two groups.The results of CPET showed that the maximum load,maximum heart rate,and respiratory quotient in the two groups were significantly increased after than before the training(P<0.01).The maximum load(Experiment group 1:29.12±19.69,Experiment group 2:72.00±46.24)and respiratory quotient(Experiment grouop 1:0.11±0.09,Experiment group 2:0.28±0.16)of the subjects in experiment group 2 before and after training were greater than those in experiment group 1.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The anaerobic and aerobic capacities of the subjects in the experiment group 2 are effectively improved,indicating that ratio of aerobic and anaerobic of the training scheme is better.

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary sarcoma of bone, and it is a leading cause of cancer death among adolescents and young adults. However, the molecular mechanism underlying osteosarcoma carcinogenesis remains poorly understood. Recently, cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) was identified as an important oncogene. We found that CDK6 protein level, rather than CDK6 mRNA level, is much higher in osteosarcoma tissues than in normal adjacent tissues, which indicates a post-transcriptional mechanism involved in CDK6 regulation in osteosarcoma. MiRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level and have widely been shown to play important roles in many human cancers. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-29b as a novel regulator of CDK6 using bioinformatics methods. We demonstrated that CDK6 can be downregulated by miR-29b via binding to the 3'-UTR region in osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, we identified an inverse correlation between miR-29b and CDK6 protein levels in osteosarcoma tissues. Finally, we examined the function of miR-29b-driven repression of CDK6 expression in osteosarcoma cells. The results revealed that miR-29b acts as a tumor suppressor of osteosarcoma by targeting CDK6 in the proliferation and migration processes. Taken together, our results highlight an important role for miR-29b in the regulation of CDK6 in osteosarcoma and may open new avenues for future osteosarcoma therapies.
