ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of Huayu Jiedu prescription against PC12 cell damage induced by a combination of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs） and oxygen-glucose deprivation （OGD）. MethodsFirst， dimethyl sulfoxide （DMSO） was used to induce the differentiation of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line （HL-60） into neutrophil-like cells （dHL-60）， and cell differentiation was assessed through Giemsa staining and flow cytometry. Next， phorbol myristate （PMA） was used to induce the formation of NETs in dHL-60 cells. The formation of NETs was assessed via SYTOX Green staining， and NETs were extracted by low-speed centrifugation. Finally， the NETs prepared through the conditioned medium were combined with OGD to induce a high-differentiation PC12 neuronal cell damage model through the co-culture method. This model was treated with the Huayu Jiedu prescription-containing serum. Cells were randomly allocated into a normal control group， a model （NETs + OGD） group， a traditional Chinese medicine （NETs + OGD + 5% Huayu Jiedu prescription-containing serum） group， and a NETosis inhibitor （100 mg·L^-1 DNase I + NETs + OGD） group. The cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to evaluate cell viability and screen the optimal intervention concentrations of NETs and Huayu Jiedu Formula-containing serum， as well as the optimal intervention time for OGD. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was adopted to measure the levels of myeloperoxidase-DNA complexes （MPO-DNA）， citrullinated histone H3 （CitH3）， and neutrophil elastase （NE）. Western blot was employed to quantify the protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3. Terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay （TUNEL） staining and flow cytometry were employed to assess neuronal apoptosis. ResultsCompared with those in the normal control group， cells in the model group successfully differentiated into dHL60 cells after DMSO induction. Wright-Giemsa staining revealed that the cells in the model group had disappeared nucleoli， distinct reniform and lobulated changes of nuclei， highly condensed chromatin， and the cytoplasm containing pale purple fine granules. Flow cytometry showed that the mean fluorescence intensity （MFI） of CD11b in the model group was enhanced （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the normal control group， dHL60 cells in the model group successfully generated NETs after PMA induction. SYTOX Green staining revealed loss of cell membrane integrity， with chromatin released from the cytoplasm to form abundant extracellular， cloud-like fibrillar structures， and a marked increase in fluorescence intensity （P<0.01）. Through the CCK-8 assay for assessing the viability of highly differentiated PC12 cells， the optimal concentration for NETs was determined as 1 000 ng·L^-1， the optimal concentration of Huayu Jiedu formula-containing serum as 5%， and the optimal duration for OGD as 2 h. Compared with the normal control group， the model group showed elevated levels of MPO-DNA， CitH3， and NE （P<0.01） and upregulated protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. Furthermore， TUNEL staining revealed an increased proportion of apoptotic cells （P<0.01） and flow cytometry showed an increased apoptosis rate （P<0.01） in the model group. Compared with the model group， the Huayu Jiedu formula-containing serum group and the NETosis inhibitor group exhibited declined levels of MPO-DNA， CitH3， and NE （P<0.05，P<0.01） and downregulated protein levels of CitH3 and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. In addition， TUNEL staining showed a decrease in the proportion of apoptotic cells （P<0.01）， and flow cytometry revealed a decrease in the apoptosis rate （P<0.01）. ConclusionHuayu Jiedu prescription may exert a protective effect against ischemic neuronal damage by inhibiting NET formation or alleviating NET-induced neurotoxicity

ObjectiveTo explore the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal （HPG） axis by modified Erxian decoction in rats with perimenopausal syndrome （PMS） and to further analyze the expression of proteins related to the silent information regulator 1 （SIRT1）/hypothalamic kisspeptin （Kisspeptin）/gonadotropin-releasing hormone （GnRH） signaling pathway in the arcuate nucleus region （ARC） of the hypothalamus， so as to reveal the potential target of action and molecular biological mechanism of modified Erxian decoction for the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome. MethodsAn animal model was established via the incomplete castration method， with successful modeling confirmed by the exfoliated cervical cell smear method. The 48 rats were divided into six groups based on the randomization principle after successful modeling， including a sham operation group， a model group， an estradiol valerate group （0.09 mg∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， high-， medium-， and low-dose modified Erxian decoction groups （7.614， 3.807，1.903 5 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， with 8 rats in each group. The estradiol valerate group and the high-， medium- and low-dose modified Erxian decoction groups were continuously administered by gavage for 28 days， and the indicators were detected 24 hours after the last administration. Body weights and uterine indices were measured. The pathological changes of the uterus were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was performed to measure the levels of estradiol （E₂）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， and gonadotropin-releasing hormone （GnRH）. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to determine the expression levels of SIRT1， Kisspeptin， kisspeptin receptor （GPR54）， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor （GnRH-R） in pituitary. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， rats in the model group had a significantly increased body weight （P0.01）， reduced wet weight and index of uterus （P0.01）， endometrial thinning or atrophy， glandular atrophy， and a decreasing number of glands. Additionally， serum levels of E₂ and the expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus significantly decreased （P0.01）. Serum levels of FSH， LH， and GnRH， the expression of Kisspeptin， GPR54， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus， and GnRH-R in pituitary significantly increased （P0.01）. Compared with the model group， the estradiol valerate group and the high-， medium-dose modified Erxian decoction groups had significantly reduced body weight， serum levels of FSH， LH， and GnRH， and expression of Kisspeptin， GPR54， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus and GnRH-R in pituitary （P0.05， P0.01） and significantly increased wet weight and index of uterus， serum level of E₂， and expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus （P0.05， P0.01）. In addition， they showed thickened endometrium， increased number of endometrial glands， and improved glandular atrophy. ConclusionModified Erxian decoction regulates the function of the HPG axis through multi-targets， and its mechanism of action may be related to the up-regulation of the expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus， the inhibition of the over-activation of the Kisspeptin/GnRH signaling pathway， the regulation of the expression of GnRH-R in the pituitary， the restoration of secretion balance of gonadotropins， and the elevation of the estrogen level. This study provides an experimental basis for the interpretation of the scientific connotation of modified Erxian decoction in the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome and a theoretical reference for the development of a novel therapeutic strategy based on the SIRT1/Kisspeptin/GnRH pathway.

Objective:To investigate the differences in the clinicopathological and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging features between ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and ductal carcinoma in situ with microinfiltration (DCIS-MI) of the breast, and to clarify the risk factors for the development of DCIS-MI.Methods:Forty-four patients diagnosed with DCIS and 21 patients diagnosed with DCIS-MI by postoperative pathology at Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 2017 to November 2022 were included, and the clinicopathological and preoperative breast MRI data of these patients were retrospectively collected. The patients' MRI images were categorized and diagnosed with reference to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) criteria. The χ2 test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the differences in the clinicopathological and MRI imaging characteristics between the two groups of patients, and generalized linear model analysis was used to clarify the influencing factors of DCIS-MI.Results:The differences in the histologic grading, estrogen receptor (ER) expression, progesterone receptor (PR) expression, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) expression, Ki-67, and molecular typing between patients in the DCIS and DCIS-MI groups were statistically significant (all P＜0.05). The results of generalized linear model analysis showed that Ki-67 expression and specific molecular typing (Luminal B and triple-negative types) were significantly associated with the risk of developing DCIS-MI ( P＜0.05). Breast fibroglandular tissue density, lesion type, background parenchymal enhancement, type of time-intensity curves (TICs), distribution of non-mass enhancement, non-mass enhancement internal enhancement characteristics, mass morphology, mass boundary, mass enhancement mode, and other MRI imaging features were not statistically significant (all P＞0.05).The MRI diagnostic accuracy of the DCIS group and the DCIS-MI group was 77.3% (34/44) and 95.2% (20/21), respectively, and the difference in the MRI BI-RADS classification of the patients in the two groups was not statistically significant ( P=0.227). Conclusions:There was no significant difference in the breast MRI imaging characteristics between patients in the DCIS and DCIS-MI groups. Patients in the DCIS-MI group were more likely to present with high histologic grades, negative ER, negative PR, positive HER-2, high Ki-67 expression, HER-2 overexpression, and triple-negative phenotypes. The association between Ki-67 expression and specific molecular typing (Luminal B and triple-negative phenotypes) and the risk of developing DCIS-MI risk were correlated.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma on the urinary metabolites of gerbils with stroke by non-targeted metabolomics technique， and then to clarify the mechanism of the two， as well as their similarities and differences. MethodTwenty-four gerbils were randomly divided into control group（CG）， model group（MG）， Aconiti Coreani Radix group（RA） and Typhonii Rhizoma group（RT）. Except for the CG， ischemic stroke model was constructed using right unilateral ligation of gerbil carotid artery in the remaining groups. Except for the CG and MG， rats in the other groups received whole powder suspension（0.586 mg·g^-1） was administered for 14 days. The neurological deficit in each group was scored by Longa scoring on days 0， 3， 7 and 14. After the end of administration， the serum， brain tissue and urine of gerbils in each group were collected， and the rate of cerebral infarction was detected by 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride（TTC）， and the levels of interleukin（IL）-6， tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α， malondialdehyde（MDA）， superoxide dismutase（SOD）， glutathione（GSH）， and nitric oxide（NO） in serum and brain tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. The urine metabolomics of gerbils in each group was studied by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS）， and the data were processed by multivariate statistical analysis， and differential metabolites were screened based on value of variable importance in the projection（VIP） of the first principal component>1 and t-test P<0.05. Metabolic pathway analysis of the screened differential metabolites was performed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） database and Metaboanalyst 5.0. ResultCompared with the CG， the neurological deficit score was significantly increased in the MG（P<0.05）， compared with the MG， the neurological deficit scores in the RA and RT were significantly reduced after 7 d and 14 d（P<0.05）. Compared with the CG， the rate of cerebral infarction was significantly increased in the MG（P<0.05）， compared with the MG， the rates of cerebral infarction in the RA and RT were significantly reduced（P<0.05）. Compared with the CG， the levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and MDA in the serum and brain tissue of gerbils from the MG were significantly increased（P<0.05）， and the levels of SOD， GSH and NO were significantly reduced（P<0.05）. Compared with the MG， Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma could down-regulate the levels of IL-6， TNF-α and MDA， and up-regulated the levels of SOD， GSH and NO. A total of 112 endogenous differential metabolites were screened by urine metabolomics， of which 16 and 26 metabolites were called back by Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma， and could be used as potential biomarkers for both treatments in stroke gerbils， respectively. The results of the pathway analysis showed that both Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma had regulatory effects on arginine and proline metabolism， pyrimidine metabolism， and aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis. In addition， Aconiti Coreani Radix could also regulate riboflavin metabolism， Typhonii Rhizoma could also regulate purine metabolism， glycine， serine and threonine metabolism， arachidonic acid metabolism， biosynthesis of pantothenate and coenzyme A， and β-alanine metabolism. ConclusionBoth Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma have better therapeutic effects on stroke， with Aconiti Coreani Radix having stronger effects. From the metabolomics results， the main metabolic pathways regulated by Aconiti Coreani Radix involve amino acid metabolism， oxidative stress and so on， while Typhonii Rhizoma mainly involve amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， energy metabolism， etc.

MicroRNA(miRNA)is a kind of small non-coding single stranded RNA that can participate in multiple biological processes.It also plays an important role in regulating the immune function of the body.Immune thrombocytopenia(ITP)is an autoim-mune disease,whose cause and deterioration are closely related to miRNA regulates immune function of CD4+T cells subsets.In ITP patients,different expression of miRNA can affect the immune function of CD4+T cells subsets,which causes not only unbalanced ex-pression of Th1/Th2,Th17/Treg and excessive differentiation of TFH,but also abnormal cytokine secretion furthermore.This paper summarizes the unbalanced mechanism of miRNA regulating immune function of CD4+T cells subsets in ITP,so as to provide inspira-tion for exploring the immunology and immunotherapy of ITP.

Objective To investigate the application value of rice bag in 1.5T MR imaging of maxillofacial frequency selective saturated fat suppression(FS)sequence.Methods Forty-one patients with maxillofacial MR examination were collected.Rapid fast spin echo(FSE)FS T2 routine scan and rice bag FSE FS T2 special scan were used to evaluate and analyze the sequence images of the two kinds by two experienced associate chief physicians in the department according to the Likert 7-point scoring system.The evaluation included FS,magnetic sensitive artifact,motion artifact,and overall image quality.Wilcoxon sign rank sum test was used to analyze the difference of image quality scores,and Kappa consistency test was used to analyze the correlation between two viewers.Results All the 41 patients completed the examination,and the FSE FS T2 plus rice bag group had significantly higher FS,magnetic sensitive artifact,motion artifact and overall image quality than the conventional FSE FS T2 group,with statistical significance(P<0.01).Kappa consistency was good in correlation analysis between the two viewers(Kappa value=0.737-0.877,P<0.01).Conclusion The application of rice bag in the 1.5T MR maxillofacial FS sequence scan has the advantages of good image quality,good FS effect and few artifacts,which can better display the maxillofacial anatomical structure and lesions,and has important clinical application value for the diagnosis of maxillofacial diseases.
