Attempts have been made to modulate motor sequence learning (MSL) through repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, targeting different sites within the sensorimotor network. However, the target with the optimum modulatory effect on neural plasticity associated with MSL remains unclarified. This study was therefore designed to compare the role of the left primary motor cortex and the left supplementary motor area proper (SMAp) in modulating MSL across different complexity levels and for both hands, as well as the associated neuroplasticity by applying intermittent theta burst stimulation together with the electroencephalogram and concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation. Our data demonstrated the role of SMAp stimulation in modulating neural communication to support MSL, which is achieved by facilitating regional activation and orchestrating neural coupling across distributed brain regions, particularly in interhemispheric connections. These findings may have important clinical implications, particularly for motor rehabilitation in populations such as post-stroke patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different dosage forms of Kaixinsan （KXS） on the morphology and function of mitochondria in rat models of Alzheimer's disease （AD） and potential mechanisms of action. MethodsMale SD rats were randomly assigned to a sham group， model group， treatment groups receiving KXS decoction， powders， and granules （3.08 g·kg^-1）， as well as donepezil group （0.51×10^-3 g·kg^-1）， with 10 rats in each group. AD model was created using intracerebroventricular injection of streptozocin （STZ）. After 30 days of administration， behavioral assessments were conducted， and mitochondrial morphology was observed using transmission electron microscopy. Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content was measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were measured via JC-1 staining， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity and reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels were measured via biochemical assays. The mRNA expression of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）， peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α （PGC-1α）， and silent information regulator 3 （SIRT3） was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， and Western blot was used to examine the protein expression levels of optic atrophy protein1 （OPA1）， mitochondrial fission protein 1 （FIS1）， AMPK， p-AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3. ResultsCompared with the sham group， rats in the model group had significantly lower recognition index， spontaneous alternation rate， escape latency， number of platform crossings， time spent in the target quadrant， and percentage of distance traveled in the target quadrant distance （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Significant mitochondrial damage was observed in the hippocampal tissue， with a marked decrease in mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content （P<0.01） and reduced mitochondrial membrane potential （P<0.05）. Additionally， the SOD activity was reduced， while ROS levels were elevated （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of PGC-1α and SIRT3 was significantly downregulated （P<0.01）， along with decreased protein expression levels of OPA1， p-AMPK/AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3， whereas FIS1 protein expression was significantly upregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， rats in KXS-treated groups （various dosage forms） showed significant improvement in behavioral indexes （P<0.05， P<0.01）， reduced hippocampal mitochondrial damage， and more organized mitochondrial cristae. Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and mitochondrial membrane potentials were elevated （P<0.05）. SOD activity was elevated， and ROS levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， the mRNA expression of PGC-1α and SIRT3 was upregulated， with increased protein levels of OPA1， p-AMPK/AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3， while FIS1 protein expression levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Across the KXS-treated groups， the granule group showed a higher spontaneous alternation rate than the decoction and powder groups （P<0.05）. ConclusionKXS decoction， powders， and granules can improve the learning and memory ability of rats， with granules being the most effective. The mechanism of action may involve activation of the AMPK/PGC-1α/SIRT3 signaling pathway， improvement of the mitochondrial function， and subsequent amelioration of the brain energy metabolism disorders.

HE staining was used to observe the morphology of kidney tissues. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the H3K27me3 protein expression in podocytes. Real time-quantitative PCR and Western blotting were used to verify the gene and protein expression of JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway respectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect IL-6, MCP-1, α-SMA and TGF-β1 of kidney tissues. Results:(1) Cell experiments: Compared with control group, the nucleus shrank and ruptured, the cytoplasm showed vacuole, and mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum swelled in ADR group, which verified that the podocyte injury model of ADR nephropathy was successfully established. Compared with control group, the protein expression level of H3K27me3 in ADR group was significantly lower ( P<0.05). Compared with ADR group, the protein expression level of H3K27me3 in podocytes in ADR+GSK-J4 group was significantly higher ( P<0.05), and there were 502 increased genes and 443 decreased genes. GO enrichment analysis showed that the differentially enriched peaks were mainly in ribonucleoprotein complex biogenesis, ribosome biogenesis, establishment of protein localization to organelle, and involved in regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT and receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT. Differential expressed genes were Irf1, Tnfrsf1a, S ocs1, Notch1, Gadd45a, Hes1 and Socs3, involving in the regulation of JAK-STAT signaling pathway. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the differentially enriched peaks were mainly in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and the target genes were Mcl1, Egfr, Socs1, Cdkn1a, Pdgfa and Socs3, involving in the regulation of JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Compared with ADR group, the mRNA and protein expression levels of JAK2 and STAT3 in the ADR+GSK-J4 group were significantly lower, and the downstream inflammatory factors of IL-6, MCP-1 and α-SMA were significantly higher (all P<0.05). Compared with ADR group, the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+GSK-J4 group was higher ( P<0.05), and the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+C-A1 group was lower ( P<0.05). Compared with ADR+GSK-J4 group, the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+GSK-J4+C-A1 group was lower ( P<0.05).

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum levels of vitamin D(VD)and brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and restless leg syndrome(RLS)in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods A total of 168 end-stage renal disease patients admitted to the hospital for maintenance hemodialy-sis treatment from May 2021 to May 2022 were regarded as the observation group.According to whether they had concurrent RLS,they were separated into concurrent RLS group and non concurrent RLS group.In addi-tion,121 healthy volunteers who came to the hospital for physical examination were regarded as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the levels of VD and BDNF in ser-um,multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of RLS in maintenance he-modialysis patients.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of single and combined detections of VD and BDNF for RLS in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Results Compared with the control group,the serum levels of VD and BDNF in the observation group were reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the non concurrent RLS group,the continuous dialysis time and serum ferritin level in the non concurrent RLS group were increased,while serum VD and BDNF levels were reduced(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that VD and BDNF were protective factors for RLS in maintenance hemodialysis patients,while continuous dialysis time and ferritin were risk factors for RLS in maintenance hemodialysis pa-tients(P<0.05).The area under the curve of the combined prediction of VD and BDNF for RLS in mainte-nance hemodialysis patients was 0.889,which was superior to those of single detection(Zcombination-VD=3.748,Zcombination-BDNF=2.245,P<0.05),and the sensitivity of the combined detection was 86.11%,and the specificity was 79.55%.Conclusion The levels of VD and BDNF in serum are protective factors for RLS in maintenance hemodialysis patients.The combination of the two could effectively predict RLS in maintenance hemodialysis patients.

The stenosis and embolization of internal fistula vessels directly affect the clinical treatment effect of maintenance hemodialysis patients, and the study of the mechanism of internal fistula stenosis has become a research hotspot in recent years. Previous studies mainly focused on the hemodynamics and pathophysiology of blood vessel wall, and there were few studies on molecular biology and its related signaling pathways. This paper reviews the hemodynamics of the vascular pathway of internal arteriovenous fistula (AVF), the pathophysiological mechanism, molecular biology, and changes in various signaling pathways of AVF dysfunction at home and abroad, in order to provide references for the study of AVF dysfunction.
