Long-term hypertension causes excessive vascular remodeling and leads to adverse cardiovascular events. Balance of ubiquitination and deubiquitination has been linked to several chronic conditions, including pathological vascular remodeling. In this study, we discovered that the expression of ubiquitin-specific protease 25 (USP25) is significantly up-regulated in angiotensin II (Ang II)-challenged mouse aorta. Knockout of Usp25 augments Ang II-induced vascular injury such as fibrosis and endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT). Mechanistically, we found that USP25 interacts directly with Forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) and removes the K63-linked ubiquitin chain on the K258 site of FOXO3. We also showed that this USP25-mediated deubiquitination of FOXO3 increases its binding to light chain 3 beta isoform and autophagosomic-lysosomal degradation of FOXO3. In addition, we further validated the biological function of USP25 by overexpressing USP25 in the mouse aorta with AAV9 vectors. Our studies identified FOXO3 as a new substrate of USP25 and showed that USP25 may be a potential therapeutic target for excessive vascular remodeling-associated diseases.

A total of 3010 venous blood samples were collected from 11 tertiary hospitals nationwide, and 14 types of WBCs were analyzed with the AI morphology analyzers. The pre-classification results were compared with the post-classification results reviewed by senior morphological experts in evaluate the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and agreement of the AI morphology analyzers on the WBC pre-classification. 2. 400 blood samples (no less than 50% of the samples with abnormal WBCs after pre-classification and manual review) were selected from 3 010 samples, and the morphologists conducted manual microscopic examinations to differentiate different types of WBCs. The correlation between the post-classification and the manual microscopic examination results was analyzed. 3. Blood samples of patients diagnosed with lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or myeloproliferative neoplasms were selected from the 3 010 blood samples. The performance of the AI morphology analyzers in these five hematological malignancies was evaluated by comparing the pre-classification and post-classification results. Cohen′s kappa test was used to analyze the consistency of WBC pre-classification and expert audit results, and Passing-Bablock regression analysis was used for comparison test, and accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and agreement were calculated according to the formula.Results:1. AI morphology analyzers can pre-classify 14 types of WBCs and nucleated red blood cells. Compared with the post-classification results reviewed by senior morphological experts, the pre-classification accuracy of total WBCs reached 97.97%, of which the pre-classification accuracies of normal WBCs and abnormal WBCs were more than 96% and 87%, respectively. 2. The post-classification results reviewed by senior morphological experts correlated well with the manual differential results for all types of WBCs and nucleated red blood cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, immature granulocytes, blast cells, nucleated erythrocytes and malignant cells r>0.90 respectively, reactive lymphocytes r=0.85). With reference, the positive smear of abnormal cell types defined by The International Consensus Group for Hematology, the AI morphology analyzer has the similar screening ability for abnormal WBC samples as the manual microscopic examination. 3. For the blood samples with malignant hematologic diseases, the AI morphology analyzers showed accuracies higher than 84% on blast cells pre-classification, and the sensitivities were higher than 94%. In acute myeloid leukemia, the sensitivity of abnormal promyelocytes pre-classification exceeded 95%. Conclusion:The AI morphology analyzer showed high pre-classification accuracies and sensitivities on all types of leukocytes in peripheral blood when comparing with the post-classification results reviewed by experts. The post-classification results also showed a good correlation with the manual differential results. The AI morphology analyzer provides an efficient adjunctive white blood cell detection method for screening malignant hematological diseases.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative joint disease in the middle-aged and elderly. The incidence of KOA is rising as the population aging aggravates and the obese population grows. KOA seriously affects the health and daily life of the patients. The commonly used drugs for the symptomatic treatment of KOA include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, cartilage protective drugs, and opioid analgesics, which have limited therapeutic effects and induce obvious adverse drug reactions. Eucommiae Cortex is one of the commonly used Chinese herbal medicines for the treatment of KOA, while its pharmacological material basis and mechanism remain unclear, which limits its clinical application. The active ingredients of Eucommiae Cortex for treating KOA mainly include iridoids (geniposide, aucubin), lignans (pinoresinol diglucoside), flavonoids (quercetin, astragaloside, baicalein, hyperoside, and kaempferol), phenylpropanoids (chlorogenic acid), and polysaccharides. These compounds regulate the levels of inflammatory cytokines, inhibit oxidative stress, protect chondrocytes, balance the synthesis and degradation of extracellular matrix, and control the progression of KOA via the mitogen-activated protein kinase, nuclear factor-κB, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B, and Janus kinase 1/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 signaling pathways. This paper introduces the mechanisms of Eucommiae Cortex and its active components in the treatment of KOA, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the development of new drugs for KOA.

ObjectiveThrough a randomized, double-blind, double-simulation, positive-control, multicenter design, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between the dosage, efficacy, and safety of Pudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid in treating acute pharyngitis/tonsillitis in adults caused by bacterial infection and validate the regulatory effect of Pudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid on inflammatory markers such as serum amyloid A (SAA), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cells (WBC), neutrophil percentage (NE%), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), thereby exploring the feasibility of using Pudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid as a substitute for antibiotics in the treatment of infectious diseases and providing a basis for rational clinical medication. MethodUsing a stratified randomized, double-blind, double-simulation, positive-control, multicenter design, 220 participants were enrolled from nine centers. The participants were randomly divided into three groups at 1∶1∶1 — a Pudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid 20 mL group (73 cases), a Pudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid 10 mL group (73 cases), and a control group (amoxicillin group, 74 cases). The treatment course was 7 days. The study observed parameters including the total effective rate of sore throat, onset and disappearance time of sore throat, health status score, treatment time, and inflammation markers. Result①Dataset division: The 211 cases were included in the full analysis dataset (FAS), 208 cases were included in the per-protocol dataset (PPS), and 218 cases were included in the safety dataset (SS). ② Efficacy evaluation: There were statistically significant differences (P<0.05) in the comparison of the three groups regarding the total effective rate of sore throat, disappearance time of sore throat, and health status. Both the 20 mL and 10 mL groups were non-inferior to the control group, and there was a statistically significant difference between the 20 mL and 10 mL dosage groups (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of onset time of sore throat among the groups. CRP, WBC, and NE% of patients in all three groups significantly decreased on the 7th day of treatment compared with those before treatment (P<0.01). ③Safety evaluation: Adverse events mainly occurred in various examination indicators. There were no statistically significant differences in the comparison between groups, and no adverse reactions or serious adverse events occurred. ④Economic evaluation: The increased cost of the 10 mL and 20 mL dosage groups was entirely justified as compared with that in the control group. When comparing the 10 mL and 20 mL dosage groups, the 10 mL dosage group was deemed less advantageous. ConclusionPudilan anti-inflammatory oral liquid can be used alone as an alternative to antibiotics in the treatment of acute pharyngitis/tonsillitis caused by bacterial infection. It demonstrates good safety and can lower inflammation markers such as CRP, WBC, and NE%, suggesting its potential to reduce the body's inflammatory response. Its mechanism of action may be related to its multi-target regulatory mechanism.

Objective:
To summarize the clinical manifestations and determine the molecular etiology for two collagen type Ⅵ-related myopathy pedigrees.
Methods:
Two spontaneous collagen type Ⅵ-related myopathy patients were admitted to Department of Neurology, Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics in October 2017. Clinical data of probands and their family members were collected and their genomic DNA was obtained for genetic testing. Next generation sequencing was performed and the variants were verified by the Sanger sequencing in the family members.
Results:
Target region sequencing indicated that the proband of family 1 has carried a heterozygous variant of COL6A3 gene, c.6229G>C(p.Gly2077Arg), and it was de novo variant confirmed by Sanger-sequencing in the family.The patient 1, a 2-year-three-month old boy, was admitted due to motor retardation at birth. He was defined as early severe Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy. He never achieved independent ambulation, he had onset of symptoms was found at birth, including diffuse muscle weakness, striking distal joint hyperlaxity, proximal contractures, calcaneal protrusion, kyphosis, and hip dislocation. Serum CK level was elevated slightly and EMG showed neurogenic changes. The patient 2, a 7-year-old girl with a limp for 4 years, carried one de novo variant of COL6A3 gene,c.5169_5177del (p.Glu1724_Leu1726del). This variant results in the deletion of amino acids (1724 to 1726) in α3 chain of collagen Ⅵ, which may disturb the function of this protein.She was diagnosed as Bethlem myopathy with a mild phenotype. She had delayed motor milestones and presented with walking on tiptoe, hypotonia, and ithylordosis. The contracture of proximal joints was not very obvious. Serum CK level was normal and EMG showed myogenic changes.Muscle biopsy revealed muscular dystrophy and muscle magnetic resonance imaging of patient 2 showed vastus lateral is a "sandwich" sign. Immunofluorescence staining for COL6A3 chain in the cultured skin fibroblasts from patients 2 showed decreased deposition compared with control.
Conclusions
These two patients were diagnosed as spontaneous collagen type Ⅵ-related myopathy and carried different variants of COL6A3 gene. Different in pathogenetic variants could cause different genetic features and different phenotypes. Collagen type Ⅵ- related myopathy patients have various clinical manifestations. Typical phenotypes include muscular dystrophies, proximal contractures, and distal hyperlaxity. Muscle MRI shows diffuse fatty infiltration of gluteus maximus and thigh muscle. The histological staining showed the low level expression of COL6A3 chain. The seventy of phenotype was related to the genotype.

Objective:
To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of endoscopicretrograde cholangio-pancreatography(ERCP)in the management of long-term complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Methods:
From January 2009 to July 2018, the clinical data of 62 patients with biliary or pancreatic long-term complications after pancreatoduodenectomy were reviewed at Department of General Surgery, and the corresponding ERCP were carried out in the multi-disciplinary cooperation.There were 39 males and 24 females.The age was 56.5 years(aging from 13 to 76 years). The time of treatment was 3 months to 20 years after pancreatoduodenectomy.The long-term biliopancreatic complications after pancreatoduodenectomy included 51 cases of biliary calculi, 42 cases of bilioenteric anastomotic stenosis with proximal bile duct dilatation, and 11 cases of pancreaticointestinal anastomosis stenosis with distal pancreatic duct dilatation.All patients received conventional duodenoscopy or single-balloon enteroscopy assisted ERCP under general anesthesia.
Results:
A total of 95 ERCP were performed in 62 patients, averaging 1.5 times per case.The long-term complications of cholangiopancreatic after pancreatoduodenectomy(ERCP indications) included 56 times of bile duct stones(58.9%), 45 times of bilioenteric anastomatic stricture(47.4%), 11 times of recurrent pancreatitis(11.6%), 6 cases(6.3%) of bilioenteric anastomatic foreign body, 3 times of intrahepatic bile duct stenosis(3.2%). Among the 95 times, 82 times(86.3%) achieved endoscopic endoscopy, 76 times(80.0%) were diagnosed successfully, and 72 times(75.8%) were successfully treated with ERCP.Small intestinal perforation occurred in 1 patient undergoing duodenoscopy, and then healed by surgical repair.
Conclusion
Multi-disciplinary collaboration of ERCP is safe and effective in the treatment of long-term complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy, but the long-term effect still needs further clinical follow-up.
