ObjectiveTo optimize the extraction method for polysaccharides from turnip（Brassica rapa）， and analyze and evaluate the primary structure of the isolated and purified turnip polysaccharide fraction（BP-1） and its hypoglycemic effects in diabetic zebrafish. MethodsTaking polysaccharide yield as the evaluation index， a semi-bionic extraction method was employed. Single-factor experiments and Box-Behnken response surface methodology were used to investigate three factors of solid-to-liquid ratio， extraction time and extraction temperature， in order to optimize the extraction process. BP-1 was isolated and purified using the Sevage method and DEAE-52 cellulose column chromatography. Structural characterization of the turnip polysaccharides was performed using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry（UV）， gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS）， Congo red assay， and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy（FT-IR） to determine purity， monosaccharide composition， triple-helix structure， and functional groups. The microstructure of the polysaccharides was observed using scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and atomic force microscopy（AFM）. Zebrafish were divided into the blank group（adding E3 medium）， and BP-1-1， BP-1-10， BP-1-50， BP-1-200， BP-1-1 000 groups（adding BP-1 solutions at concentrations of 1， 10， 50， 200， 1 000 mg·L^-1， respectively）， and zebrafish embryos were subjected to a 96-hour exposure experiment. The maximum tolerated concentration of BP-1 in zebrafish was determined by evaluating its effects on phenotype， survival rate， malformation rate， and heart rate. Experimental animals were randomly divided into the blank group， model group， BP-1-10 group（10 mg·L^-1）， BP-1-50 group（50 mg·L^-1）， and BP-1-200 group（200 mg·L^-1）. The blank group was cultured in E3 medium， the model and treatment groups were induced to establish a diabetic model in 4 day-post-fertilization（dpf） zebrafish embryos using 10 g·L^-1 of glucose combined with 500 µmol·L^-1 of alloxan. The treatment groups received corresponding doses of BP-1 solution， while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of saline. Glucose and insulin（INS） levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） kits， the effects on the liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） histopathological sections. The mRNA expression levels of glucagon（Glucagon）， insulin（Insa）， and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1（PCK1） were detected with real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR）. ResultsThe optimized extraction conditions were determined as follows：solid-to-liquid ratio of 1∶40（g·mL^-1）， extraction time of 66 min， and extraction temperature of 79 ℃. Under these conditions， the yield of turnip polysaccharides was （10.34±0.96）%. UV analysis indicated that BP-1 contained no proteins or nucleic acids， GC-MS analysis revealed that BP-1 consisted of six monosaccharides（arabinose， rhamnose， ribose， mannose， galactose and glucose）. Congo red assay indicated that the molecular conformation did not exhibit a triple-helix structure， FT-IR analysis showed the presence of α-glycosidic bonds and uronic acids， SEM analysis revealed an irregular flaky structure with a flat and smooth surface， AFM analysis suggested that the aggregated structure might be formed by the entanglement of molecular chains and intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The maximum tolerated concentration of BP-1 in zebrafish over 96 h was determined to be 200 mg·L^-1. Pharmacodynamic results showed that， compared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly increased glucose levels and significantly decreased INS levels（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BP-1-50 group significantly reduced glucose levels and increased INS levels（P<0.05）. Histopathological examination of liver tissue revealed that various doses of BP-1 had a certain reparative effect on damaged liver tissue. The liver tissue structure in the BP-1-200 group was nearly normal， with hepatocytes appearing plump. Real-time PCR results showed that， compared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly upregulated mRNA expressions of Glucagon and PCK1， and significantly downregulated mRNA expression of Insa（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BP-1-50 and BP-1-200 groups showed significantly downregulated mRNA expressions of Glucagon and PCK1， and significantly upregulated mRNA expression of Insa（P<0.01）. ConclusionThe semi-bionic extraction method for turnip polysaccharides yields a high extraction rate， is simple to operate， has low costs， making it suitable for large-scale industrial production. BP-1 consists of six monosaccharides， contains α-glycosidic bonds and uronic acids， exhibits hypoglycemic activity， and provides a certain protective effect on the liver of alloxan-induced diabetic model zebrafish.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,improving the health of skeletal muscles through exercise has become an important research concern for scholars.Appropriate exercise has a positive effect on skeletal muscles.Among them,how to activate the sphingosine kinase1(SphK1)/sphingosine-1-phase(S1P)/sphingosine-1-phase receptor2(S1PR2)signaling pathway during exercise so as to improve the health of skeletal muscles is receiving attention from researchers. OBJECTIVE:To investigate how exercise improves the health of skeletal muscles through the SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway,and to explore new methods for treating related muscle diseases in order to improve human skeletal muscle health. METHODS:The first author searched for relevant literature from the establishment of the database to the present in the Web of Science,PubMed,CNKI,WanFang,and VIP databases.The search terms were"signaling pathway,SphK1,S1P,S1PR2,skeletal muscle,satellite cell,myogenesis,exercise"in Chinese and English.Finally,69 articles were included for review and analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway is a complex regulatory network that triggers downstream signal transduction processes by SphK1 to catalyze the interaction between S1P and receptors such as S1PR2,thereby regulating multiple biological functions of cells,tissues,organs,and systems.The SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway can regulate satellite cell proliferation and myoblast differentiation,improving myogenesis.The physiological basis of the SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway and the potential impact of exercise on it were analyzed through literature research.Acute aerobic exercise can increase the expression of SphK1 in skeletal muscle.Both human and animal studies have confirmed that acute and long-term exercise can increase the expression of S1P in skeletal muscle.In addition,studies have shown that long-term resistance exercise can increase the expression of S1PR2 in skeletal muscle.Some experimental results indicate that acute and long-term exercise have no significant effect on muscle or blood S1P levels,and the reason for different results may be due to different research subjects,methods,intensities,and frequencies selected,while the specific mechanism is not yet clear.Research suggests that exercise can promote the expression of the SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway in skeletal muscle and regulate downstream related signaling pathways.Research on this signaling pathway may provide new strategies and methods for the treatment of skeletal muscle diseases,thereby improving skeletal muscle health.In the future,we should deepen the research on the association between SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway and skeletal muscle health,further reveal its regulatory relationship with satellite cells and myoblasts as well as its interactions with the upstream and downstream pathways,explore its clinical application value,take into account the changes of this pathway when formulating the rehabilitation program,explore the specific mechanisms by which different types of exercise affect the SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway in skeletal muscles,and use the SphK1/S1P/S1PR2 signaling pathway as a potential therapeutic target for diseases.Further development and application of human muscle models should be developed to improve research depth and accuracy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of Brassica rapa polysaccharide （BRP） on the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/ myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， AMP-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c （SREBP-1c） pathways， intestinal microbiota and liver metabolism of mice with alcoholic liver injury， and preliminarily elucidate its mechanism for improving alcoholic liver injury. METHODS Seventy-two mice were randomly divided into blank group （normal saline）， model group （normal saline）， bifendate group （positive control， 300 mg/kg） and BRP low-， medium- and high-dose groups （75， 150 and 300 mg/kg）. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically， once a day， for consecutive 9 d. After the last administration， mice in all groups except the blank group were gavaged with white liquor to establish an alcoholic liver injury model. The levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in serum， total cholesterol， triglycerides， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol， interleukin-6， interleukin-1β， tumor necrosis factor- α and lipopolysaccharide， as well as protein expressions of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB p65， phosphorylated NF-κB p65 （p-NF-κB p65）， AMPK， phosphorylated AMPK （p-AMPK）， and SREBP-1c were all detected； pathological morphological changes of liver tissue and colon were observed. 16S rRNA was used to detect the changes of intestinal microbiota in mice， and metabolomics 2022B02058） technology was used to detect the changes of liver metabolites. RESULTS Compared with model group， the above biochemical indicators and the protein expressions of TLR4， MyD88， p-NF-κB p65， and SREBP-1c in liver tissues were all significantly decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， while the protein expression of p-AMPK was significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Pathological damage to liver and colon tissues was significantly improved. Medium dose of BRP could increase the relative abundance of Akkermansia， norank_f_Muribaculaceae and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group in the intestinal contents of mice to a certain extent， and decrease the relative abundance of Lactobacillus and Escherichia-Shigella. A total of 9 differential metabolites were identified by metabolomics， including homogentisic acid， myristyl lysophosphatidylcholine， which were involved in pathways such as tyrosine metabolism. CONCLUSIONS BRP can regulate the relative abundance of beneficial flora， reduce the relative abundance of harmful flora， improve the structure of intestinal colonies， reduce the entry of pro-inflammatory mediator lipopolysaccharides into liver tissue， affect metabolic pathways such as tyrosine metabolism and the expression of TLR4/MyD88/NF- κB and AMPK/SREBP-1c signaling pathways in the liver， and ultimately improve alcoholic liver injury.

Patients with skeletal ClassⅡ often show symptoms such as protrusion of maxillary anterior teeth,mandibular retraction,open lips and teeth,deep overbite,and deep overjet,which seriously affect the facial appearance.This article reports a case of an ado-lescent male patient with skeletal Class Ⅱ combined with impacted teeth treated by one-stage early correction and two-stage fixation.After treatment,the patient's skeletal Class Ⅱ symptoms improved significantly,including the improvement of mandibular retraction.The problem of open lips and teeth was solved;the facial appearance tended to be straight,and there was no obvious abnormality of the temporomandibular joint.This case shows that early correction can achieve good therapeutic effects on this kind of patients and can avoid or reduce the possibility of orthognathic surgery for these patients in adulthood.

Objective:To investigate the current status and trend of disease burden of neoplasms in 1990 and 2016 for Beijing people.Methods:The incidence situation, deaths status and disease burden of neoplasms in Beijing were described by using the results of the global burden of diseases study 2016 (GBD 2016). The measurement index included incidence, death, years of life lost due to premature mortality (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and disability-adjusted years (DALY). Using the average world population from 2000 to 2025 as standard population to calculate the age-standardized incidence rate, mortality rate, DALY rate, YLL rate and YLD rate.Results:The age-standardized incidence rate of neoplasms in 2016 was 250.68 per 100 000, which increased by 30.03% than in 1990. The age-standardized mortality rate was 115.83 per 100 000, which decreased by 26.71% than in 1990. The DALY, YLL and YLD of neoplasms in 2016 were 671.2, 651.1 and 20.1 thousand person-years, respectively, which increased by 85.83%, 82.79% and 302.00% than those in 1990. The age-standardized DALY rate and YLL rate were 2 549.00 and 2 469.84 per 100 000, which decreased by 33.22% and 34.30% than those in 1990. The age-standardized YLD rate was 79.16 per 100 000, which increased by 37.17% than that in 1990. The male DALY, YLL and YLD in 2016 were 428.8, 417.8 and 11.0 thousand person-years, and female were 242.4, 233.3 and 9.1 thousand person-years, respectively.Among different neoplasms, the top three neoplasms of DALY and YLL were lung cancer, liver cancer, colon and rectum cancer, the top three of YLD were lung cancer, colon and rectum cancer, breast cancer. The topped group of disease burden of neoplasms was aged from 50 to 69 years old, the DALY of which was 323.6 thousand person-years, accounted for 48.21% of all DALY, and increased by 87.70% than that in 1990.Conclusions:The disease burden of neoplasms in Beijing is dominated by YLL, and the YLD increases rapidly. The burden is severe in the group of aged from 50 to 69 years old, and the male is severer than female. Lung cancer ranks the first of the disease burden of neoplasms. The DALY of colorectal cancer has increased. Comprehensive strategies should be promoted, including cultivating a good lifestyle and implementing prevention and control of neoplasm risk factors as early as teenage group, early screening of high-risk population, and enhancing the instruction of patients′ treatment and rehabilitation.
