Objective:To characterize fine motor function in middle-aged and elderly individuals utilizing a novel wearable inertial motion capture device.Additionally, it seeks to investigate the relationship between fine motor deficits and overall cognitive function, as well as various cognitive dimensions.Methods:Participants aged 50 years and older were recruited between November 2022 and April 2023.The Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA)was employed to evaluate the cognitive function of the subjects, and a radar chart was utilized to illustrate the extent of impairment across different cognitive dimensions.An independent computerized fine motor evaluation system was developed using the motion capture technology of a novel wearable microelectromechanical system(MEMS)inertial sensor, enabling a quantitative assessment of fine motor skills.The differences in fine motor function characteristics between the two groups were compared.Spearman's correlation analysis and multivariate logistic regression were conducted to examine the relationship between fine motor deficits and cognitive dysfunction.Results:A total of 289 participants were recruited, among whom 140(48.4%)were classified into the cognitive impairment group.The mean MoCA scores for the cognitive impairment group and the non-cognitive impairment group were 22.2 ± 2.79 and 27.7 ± 1.19, respectively( P<0.001).The electronic assessment of fine motor function revealed that the motion parameters of hand function in the cognitive impairment group were significantly poorer across all three numerical evaluation tasks.Spearman's correlation analysis demonstrated a robust correlation between deficits in fine motor function and cognitive dysfunction.Furthermore, in the multiple logistic regression model, after adjusting for potential confounding factors including age, gender, and education level, a significant association between cognitive dysfunction and fine motor dysfunction persisted. Conclusions:A novel wearable motion capture technology was employed to facilitate the digital assessment of fine motor function.The findings revealed a significant correlation between deficits in fine motor function and cognitive dysfunction among middle-aged and elderly populations.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1 α (PGC-1α) is a core member of the PGC-1 family and serves as a transcriptional coactivator, playing a crucial regulatory role in various diseases. Mitochondria, the main site of cellular energy metabolism, are essential for maintaining cell growth and function. Their function is regulated by various transcription factors and coactivators. PGC-1α regulates the biogenesis, dynamics, energy metabolism, calcium homeostasis, and autophagy processes of mitochondria by interacting with multiple nuclear transcription factors, thereby exerting significant effects on mitochondrial function. This review explores the biological functions of PGC-1α and its regulatory effects and related mechanisms on mitochondria, providing important information for our in-depth understanding of the role of PGC-1α in cellular metabolism. The potential role of PGC-1α in metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases was also discussed, providing a theoretical basis for the development of new treatment strategies.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of ubiquitin-associated domain-containing protein 2(UBAC2)mediated by m6A methylation modification on the invasion and migration abilities of colorectal cancer cells.Methods The GEPIA2.0 database was utilized to analyze the expression differences of UBAC2 mRNA between colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues,as well as its expression in colorectal cancer tissues at different stages.The correlation between Wilms tumor 1-associated protein(WTAP)and UBAC2 expression was analyzed.The Kaplan-Meier plotter online tool was applied to analyze the correlation between UBAC2 and the overall survival rate of colorectal cancer patients.The RMVar and SRAMP databases were employed to predict potential m6A methylation modification sites in the UBAC2 gene.Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)and Western blotting were performed to detect the expression levels of UBAC2 mRNA and protein in colorectal cancer cell lines.For UBAC2 knockdown experiments,SW480 cells were divided into control group(no treatment),sh-NC group(transfected with sh-NC negative control plasmid),and sh-UBAC2 group(transfected with sh-UBAC2 plasmid).For WTAP knockdown experiments,groups included control group(no treatment),si-NC group(transfected with negative control siRNA),and si-WTAP group(transfected with WTAP-targeting siRNA).For UBAC2 overexpression experiments,groups were control group(no treatment),si-WTAP group(transfected with pcDNA3.1 empty plasmid),and si-WTAP+OE-UBAC2 group(transfected with UBAC2 overexpression plasmid pcDNA3.1-UBAC2).Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of UBAC2,WTAP,E-cadherin,N-cadherin,and Vimentin;qRT-PCR was applied to detect the expression level of UBAC2 mRNA;Transwell assays were conducted to assess cell invasion and migration abilities.MeRIP-qPCR was employed to detect the m6A methylation modification of UBAC2 mRNA;RIP-qPCR experiments were conducted to verify the binding of WTAP to UBAC2 mRNA.In nude mouse colorectal cancer lung metastasis experiments,groups included LV-sh-NC group(tail vein injection of SW480 cells stably infected with LV-sh-NC)and LV-sh-UBAC2 group(tail vein injection of SW480 cells stably infected with LV-sh-UBAC2).After 42 d of tumor-implantation in nude mice,lung tissues were harvested:the number of lung nodules observed by hematoxylin/eosin(HE)staining,and the expression level of Luc2 mRNA detected by qRT-PCR.Results GEPIA2.0 database analysis revealed that the expression level of UBAC2 mRNA in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues,and it gradually increased with the progression of tumor stage(P<0.05).The expression levels of UBAC2 mRNA and protein in multiple colorectal cancer cell lines were significantly higher than those in normal colonic epithelial cells(P<0.05).Compared with sh-NC group,sh-UBAC2 group showed significantly increased E-cadherin protein expression,significantly decreased N-cadherin and Vimentin protein expression,and significantly reduced number of invaded and migrated SW480 cells(P<0.05).GEPIA2.0 database analysis results indicated a positive correlation between WTAP and UBAC2 expression(r=0.24,P<0.001).Compared with si-NC group,si-WTAP group showed significantly decreased expression levels of WTAP and UBAC2 mRNA and protein in SW480 cells(P<0.05).MeRIP-qPCR results demonstrated that the m6A modification level of UBAC2 mRNA in si-WTAP group was significantly lower than that in si-NC group(P<0.05).RIP-qPCR further confirmed that WTAP could bind to UBAC2 mRNA.Compared with control group,si-WTAP group showed significantly increased E-cadherin protein expression and significantly decreased N-cadherin and Vimentin protein expression in SW480 cells(P<0.05);compared with si-WTAP group,si-WTAP+OE-UBAC2 group showed significantly decreased E-cadherin protein expression and significantly increased N-cadherin and Vimentin protein expression in SW480 cells(P<0.05).The number of lung nodules in LV-sh-UBAC2 group was significantly fewer than that in LV-sh-NC group,and the expression level of Luc2 mRNA in lung tissues was significantly lower than that in LV-sh-NC group(P<0.05).Conclusion UBAC2 mediated by m6A methylation modification can regulate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)process in colorectal cancer cells,thereby affecting the invasion and migration abilities of colorectal cancer cells.
