Objective To explore the mechanism by which breast cancer-derived LncRNA OIP5-AS1 regulates the migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of breast cancer cells through the M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM). Methods MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into the control group (blank control), the NC group (transfected with NC siRNA), and the si-OIP5 group (transfected with LncRNA OIP5-AS1 siRNA). The mRNA expression levels of LncRNAs OIP5-AS1, IL-4, and IL-13 were detected by RT-qPCR. The protein expression levels of IL-4 and IL-13 in the culture supernatant were detected by ELISA. The culture supernatant from the control group was added to RPMI 1640 medium at different volume ratios to induce the polarization of M0 macrophages into TAMs. The mRNA expression of CD206 in TAMs was detected by RT-qPCR. M0-type macrophages were induced with the medium supernatant of the NC group/si-OIP5 group, and the expression of CD206 was detected by Western blot. Subsequently, a co-culture model of macrophage and MDA-MB-231 was constructed to evaluate the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells and detect the expression changes in Vimentin, N-cadherin and E-cadherin. Results Compared with the control and NC groups, the si-OIP5 group showed significantly downregulated expression of LncRNA OIP5-AS1 (P<0.001) and significantly decreased IL-13 mRNA and protein levels (P<0.05). Meanwhile, no significant difference was observed in the expression of IL-4 among the groups. Conditioned medium induced CD206 expression in M0 macrophages in a volume-dependent manner, with the strongest effect at a 40% volume ratio (P<0.001). The CD206 protein level in the si-OIP5 group significantly decreased (P<0.01). In the co-culture system, the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells in the si-OIP5 group significantly weakened (P<0.001), the expression of E-cadherin was upregulated, and the expression levels of N-cadherin and Vimentin were downregulated (both P<0.01). Conclusion Breast cancer-derived LncRNA OIP5-AS1 can induce TAM M2 polarization mediated by IL-13, thereby promoting the migration, invasion, and EMT of breast cancer cells.

Objective To establish a rat model of acclimatization to motion sickness(MS)induced by rotational stimulation.Methods To determine the stimulation conditions of MS,SD rats were divided into a static control group(SCG)and a single rotation stimulation group(SRG)before being subjected to the motion sickness index(MSI)measurement,open-field experiment and Morris water maze experiment after rotational stimulation to verify the feasibility of MS being induced in rats.Morris water maze experiments were performed to find out whether rotational stimulation could be used to induce MS in rats.During experiments on acclimatization,the SD rats were divided into the control group(Ctrl),one day of rotational stimulation group(Day1),three days of continuous rotational stimulation group(Day3),and seven days of continuous rotational stimulation group(Day7)before the changes in the MSI and behavior of these rats were recorded so as to explore the relationship between continuous stimulation and MS acclimatization in rats.Results After rotational stimulation,the rats showed a significant increase in the number of fecal pellets(P<0.0001)and in the MSI(P<0.0001)compared with the SCG.In the open field experiment,the rats showed a significant decrease in the spontaneous activity time(AT)(P<0.0001),total spontaneous activity distance(TD)(P<0.001)and distance moved by the center point per second(DMCPS)(P<0.001).The time taken to climb onto the platform(latency to find the platform,LP)(P<0.0001)and the total distance to the platform(distance to the platform,DP)(P<0.001)were significantly increased during the Morris water maze experiment.Acclimatization experiments revealed a significant increase in MSI and in the number of fecal pellets in the Day1 and Day3 groups of rotational stimulation compared to the Ctrl group(P<0.0001).AT(P<0.01),TD(P<0.05)and DMCPS(P<0.01)were significantly decreased,while LP and DP were significantly increased(P<0.0001),but there was no statistically significant difference in indices compared with the Day7 group(P>0.05).Conclusion Sinusoidal stimulation can induce MS in rats,and twice-a-day,continuous rotational stimulation for seven days can lead to acclimatization.The rat MS model can be assessed via behavioral experiments.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the effects of exogenous trigger (hCG/GnRHa) versus endogenous LH surge in natural cycle IVF/ICSI (NC-IVF/ICSI) for patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1,118 NC-IVF/ICSI cycles from two reproductive centers between 2013 and 2024. Propensity score matching (PSM) and multivariate logistic regression were used to adjust for confounding factors. The trigger-day hormone threshold was determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Outcome measures included oocyte retrieval rate, 2PN fertilization rate, clinical available embryo rate, high-quality embryo rate, fresh cycle clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), and live birth rate (LBR). RESULTS: After adjusting for confounders via PSM and logistic regression, the exogenous trigger group demonstrated significantly better outcomes across all the evaluated parameters (oocyte retrieval rate, 2PN fertilization rate, transferable embryo rate, high-quality embryo rate, fresh cycle CPR, and LBR) than the endogenous LH surge group (P<0.05). Age-stratified analysis revealed that for the entire cohort, exogenous triggering significantly increased the number of transferable embryos and high-quality embryos (P<0.001). In the 35-39 years old subgroup, exogenous triggering showed significant advantages in oocyte yield, high-quality embryo rate, CPR, and LBR (P<0.05) and resulted in the most pronounced improvement in LBR (OR=6.25, 95% CI: 1.34-29.23). ROC analysis established a decision-day LH threshold of 19.055 mIU/mL (AUC=0.945, specificity=93.3%) for precise stratification of the clinical pathways. CONCLUSIONS For DOR patients undergoing NC-IVF/ICSI, exogenous triggering comprehensively improves the treatment outcomes, particularly providing significant live birth benefits for women aged 35-40 years. An individualized protocol incorporating the LH threshold (19.055 mIU/mL) effectively enhances embryonic developmental potential and live birth rates.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder and its symptoms are subject to the composition of the gut microbiota. However, it is not yet clear how probiotics relieve IBS, and there is no well-acknowledged standards concerning the clinical application of probiotics. This systematic review was conducted on the literature published from January 2020 to December 2023 and included 12 randomized controlled trials on probiotics in the treatment of IBS. Compared with placebo, the probiotic preparations improved the overall efficacy in IBS patients and was also well tolerated, suggesting the potential of probiotics in IBS management. Nevertheless, different probiotic strains, dosages, combinations, and dosing schedules may affect the outcomes. In the future, large-scale, multi-center, long-term follow-up studies are still needed to clarify the effective strains and methods of use and to promote the use of probiotics in the treatment of IBS.

Obesity is related to many diseases,such as diabetes,hypertension,angina pectoris and arthritis,and has become an increasingly serious global public health problem.Chronic low-grade inflammation and activation of immune system are involved in pathogenesis of obesity-related insulin resistance.Insulin is only hormone that can lower blood sugar,and works through insulin signaling pathway.Under normal circumstances,interaction of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory system maintains immune homeostasis.Dynamic balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory reactions determines occurrence,development and outcome of inflamma-tion.Activation of inflammatory signaling pathways can induce insulin resistance in central and peripheral tissues,and Toll-like recep-tor 4(TLR4)signaling pathway is one of important pathways that produce pro-inflammatory responses.It has known high-fat diet is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation,which may due to saturated fatty acids activate TLR4 receptors,stimulate expression of inflammatory cytokines,and inhibit insulin signal transduction.In anti-inflammatory system,cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway(CAP)is a neuroimmunological regulation pathway,which is fast,reversible,accurate and can adapt to changes in inflammatory input signals,which is mainly composed of vagus nerve,spleen and splenic sympathetic nerve,acetylcholine and α7 nicotinic acetyl-choline receptor(α7nAChR).Activation of CAP can improve obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance.This review focus on obesity-mediated inflammation,CAP anti-inflammatory pathways,and their relationship with insulin resistance,in order to enrich molecular immune mechanism of insulin resistance,and provide a basis for research of anti-inflammatory diagnosis and treatment of insulin resistance-related diseases.
