ObjectiveTo introduce a fixation technique with the modified levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) and evaluate its efficacy in the treatment of adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. MethodsA retrospective analysis was done on 22 adenomyosis patients who underwent modified LNG-IUS fixation due to LNG-IUS expulsion at three hospitals from June 2022 to June 2023. The baseline clinical characteristics, operative and postoperative details were collected and analyzed. The Visual analogu scale (VAS) scores and pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBAC) scores were measured and compared before, 3 and 6 months after the LNG-IUS fixation. ResultsThe mean operative time was (19.51±7.41) min and intraoperative bleeding was (6.71±5.30) mL. Of the patients, 13 were operated under local anaesthesia and the other 9 under intravenous anaesthesia. There were 4 operations performed by a resident doctor, 15 by an attending doctor and 3 by a senior doctor. No intraoperative or postoperative complication was found. The mean follow-up was 11.51 months and no patient had a recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion during the follow-up period. The mean level of hemoglobin at 1 month after operation was significantly higher than that before (P<0.001). VAS scores and PBAC scores at 3 and 6 months postoperatively were all improved significantly than those preoperatively (P<0.001). ConclusionsEffectively preventing the recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion, modified LNG-IUS fixation is a safe and efficient method for adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. Modified LNG-IUS fixation deserves the clinical application due to its easy operation and wide range of use on women.

OBJECTIVE To establish thin-layer chromatography (TLC) identification method and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprint of Inonotus obliquus, and to evaluate the quality of I. obliquus by chemical pattern recognition. METHODS TLC method was used to identify trametenolic acid and inotodiol in I. obliquus qualitatively. HPLC fingerprint of I. obliquus was established; Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine (2012 edition) was used to determine the common peaks and evaluate the similarity; chemical pattern recognition analysis [cluster analysis, principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA)] of 22 batches of I. obliquus was performed with SPSS 23.0 software and SIMCA14.1 software. RESULTS In the TLC, the same color spots were found at the same position in the chromatograms of test sample and substance control. A total of 10 common peaks were marked in the HPLC fingerprints of 22 batches of I. obliquus, with similarities of 0.942-0.995. No. 3 peak was identified as trametenolic acid, No.4 peak as inotodiol, No. 9 peak as ergosterol and No. 10 peak as lanosterol. Results of cluster analysis showed that S1-S15, S19, S21 and S22 could be clustered into the first category, and S16-S18 and S20 were clustered into the second category. Results of principal component analysis showed that top 4 samples in the list of comprehensive score were S17, S18, S16 and S20. Results of OPLS-DA showed that three marking components that may affect the quality of I. obliquus were screened according to the standard of VIP>1, i.e. No. 4 peak (inotodiol, VIP value of 1.86), No. 3 peak (trametenolic acid, VIP value of 1.62) and No. 7 peak (VIP value of 1.27). CONCLUSIONS This study establishes TLC method and HPLC fingerprint of I. obliquus successfully, which can provide reference for the quality control of I.obliquus by combining with chemical pattern recognition.

Objective:To investigate the effect of M1 microglia-derived exosomes (M1-exo) on neuronal injury after oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration, and to explore its mechanism.Methods:The mouse microglia BV2 cells grown in logarithmic growth phase were added with 100 μg/L liposolysaccharide (LPS) and 20 μg/L interferon-γ (IFN-γ) to induce the polarization of microglia into M1 phenotype. M1 microglia were identified by Western blotting, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and immunofluorescence. The supernatant of M1 microglia was collected, and exosomes were extracted by ExoQuick-TC TM kit. The morphology of exosomes were observed by transmission electron microscope and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and the expression of characteristic proteins CD9 and CD63 of exosomes were detected by Western blotting. The well-growing mouse neuroblastoma N2a cells were divided into six groups: the cells in group C were conventionally-cultured; and the cells in group O were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation for 3 hours followed by restoration of oxygen-glucose supply 24 hours to establish the model of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration injury; and the N2a cells in group E were co-cultured with M1-exo 24 hours after oxygen-glucose deprivation 3 hours; NC group, M group and I group constructed negative control, overexpression and knockdown of microRNA-20a-5p (miR-20a-5p) M1-exo, respectively. The succession of transfection was detected by qPCR and N2a cells in group NC, group M and group I were co-cultured with such transfected M1-exo for 24 hours after oxygen-glucose deprivation 3 hours. Cell viability were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of miR-20a-5p were detected by qPCR. Results:Compared with M0 microglia, the fluorescence intensity and mRNA and protein expressions of CD32 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), specific markers of M1 microglia, were increased [CD32 (fluorescence intensity): 36.919±1.541 vs. 3.533±0.351, CD32 mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 4.887±0.031 vs. 1.003±0.012, CD32/β-actin: 2.663±0.219 vs. 1.000±0.028; iNOS (fluorescence intensity): 29.513±1.197 vs. 7.933±0.378, iNOS mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 4.829±0.177 vs. 1.000±0.016, iNOS/β-actin: 1.991±0.035 vs. 1.000±0.045; all P < 0.01], indicating M1 microglia were successfully activated. Under electron microscopy, M1-exo had round or oval vesicular bodies with obvious membranous structures, with diameters ranging from 100 nm. Western blotting showed that the exosomes expressed specific CD63 and CD9 proteins. Compared with group C, the cell viability was decreased, the apoptosis rate and the expression of miR-20a-5p were significantly increased in group O [cell viability ( A value): 0.540±0.032 vs. 1.001±0.014, apoptosis rate: (19.857±0.910)% vs. (13.508±0.460)%, miR-20a-5p (2 -ΔΔCt): 5.508±0.291 vs. 1.033±0.101, all P < 0.01]. Compared with O group, cell viability was decreased, apoptosis rate and the expression of miR-20a-5p were increased in group E [cell viability ( A value): 0.412±0.029 vs. 0.540±0.032, apoptosis rate: (31.802±0.647)% vs. (19.857±0.910)%, miR-20a-5p (2 -ΔΔCt): 8.912±0.183 vs. 5.508±0.291, all P < 0.01], indicating that M1 microglia-derived exosomes further aggravated the damage of N2a cells after oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration. Compared with group E, cell viability was decreased, apoptosis rate and the expression of miR-20a-5p were increased in group M [cell viability ( A value): 0.311±0.028 vs. 0.412±0.029, apoptosis rate: (36.343±0.761)% vs. (31.802±0.647)%, miR-20a-5p (2 -ΔΔCt): 32.348±0.348 vs. 8.912±0.183, all P < 0.01]; and the cell viability was increased, apoptosis rate and the expression of miR-20a-5p were decreased in group I [cell viability ( A value): 0.498±0.017 vs. 0.412±0.029, apoptosis rate: (26.437±0.793)% vs. (31.802±0.647)%, miR-20a-5p (2 -ΔΔCt): 6.875±0.219 vs. 8.912±0.183, all P < 0.01]. There was no significant difference in cell viability, apoptosis rate and the expression of miR-20a-5p between group E and group NC. Conclusion:M1 microglia-derived exosomes aggravate the injury of neurons after oxygen and glucose deprivation and reoxygenation, which may be related to miR-20a-5p carried by M1-exo.
