This study performed to determine whether OX40L overexpressed by recombinant rabies virus(LBNSE-OX40L)can enhance the innate immune response through activation of dendritic cells and thus activate early antibody production.Bone marrow dendritic cells(BMDCs)were extracted from the femur of Balb/c mice and cultured for 6 days,and the cultured BMDCs were infected with the parental virus LBNSE and the recombinant virus LBNSE-OX40L with the multiplicity of infections(MOI)=1.The effect of each virus on the maturation of BMDCs was analyzed by flow cytometry;ELISA was used to detect the expression of innate immunity-related cytokines such as interferon-α(IFN-α)and interleukin-12p40(IL-12p40)in the supernatants of the infected BMDCs.For in vivo study,Balb/c female mice were injected intramuscularly with 106 FFU of parental virus LBNSE and recombinant virus LBNSE-OX40L in both hind limbs,and the inguinal lymph nodes of mice were collected on day 6 after immunization,and the proportion of mature DCs was detected by flow cytometry.The serum was collected on day 6 after immunization,and the content of virus-neutralizing antibody(VNA)was detected by antiviral neutralizing antibody titration.Mouse serum was collected on day 6 after immunization,and virus neutralizing antibody content was measured by titration of antiviral neutralizing antibody,while IgG antibody in mouse serum was detected by ELISA.IgM antibody subclasses were detected by ELISA on days 2,4,and 6 after immunization.Compared with the parental virus LBNSE,the recombinant virus LBNSE-OX40L was able to activate more BMDCs in vitro and produce significantly higher levels of IFN-α and IL-12p40.Furthermore,the recombinant virus LBNSE-OX40L stimulated the maturation and differentiation of the DCs in vivo,which led to the rapid production of high levels of VNA and RABV-specific IgG and IgM antibodies.Taken together,LBNSE-OX40L activates dendritic cells to promote the body's innate immune response,and in turn enhances early antibody production,thus can be an early effective rabies vaccine candidate.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of astragaloside-Ⅳ （AS-Ⅳ） in regulating pyroptosis to alleviate intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury （IRI） by combining network pharmacology and in vivo experiments. MethodFirstly， the corresponding target genes of AS-Ⅳ were obtained from TraditionalChineseMedicineSystemsPharmacology（TCMSP） database and Swiss Target Prediction database， and the target genes related to intestinal IRI and Pyroptosis were obtained from GeneCards database， and the common target genes of the three were obtained by drawing Venn diagrams through unspiralized website. Protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed by STRING database and Cytoscape software to screen common target genes and imported into Cytoscape software to obtain core target genes. Microbiotics platform was used for gene ontology（GO） and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes（KEGG） enrichment analysis and prediction of the mechanism of action of AS-Ⅳ in regulating Pyroptosis to alleviate intestinal IRI. Then C57/BL6J mice were randomly divided into 5 groups normal group， model group（IR）， drug administration group （IR+AS-Ⅳ）， nucleotide-binding oligomerization structural domain-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） agonist NSS group （IR+AS-Ⅳ+NSS）， and NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group （IR+AS-Ⅳ+MCC950） by using a randomized numerical table method. The intestinal IRI model was established by clamping the superior mesenteric artery for 45 min and resuming perfusion for 2 h in the model group， the drug administration group， the NLRP3 agonist NSS group， and the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group， and the normal group was only separated from the vessels without clamping. The administration group， the NLRP3 agonist NSS group， and the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group were gavaged with astragaloside dissolved in 0.1% dimethylsulfoxide （50 mg·kg^-1） for 3 consecutive days before modeling， with the last gavage 2 h before modeling， and the remaining two groups were gavaged with equal amounts of saline. The NLRP3 agonist NSS group was injected intraperitoneally with 4 mg·kg^-1 of NSS 1 h before modeling， and the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group was injected intraperitoneally with 10 mg·kg^-1 of MCC950 1 h before modeling.The mice were put to death by reperfusion for 2 h， and intestinal tissues were obtained. The levels of IL-18 and IL-1β were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）， and the protein expression of thioredoxin-binding protein （TXNIP）， NLRP3， Caspase-1 and pyrocatechin D （GSDMD） were detected by Western blot， and the pathological changes of intestinal tissues were evaluated by Chiu's score. ResultNetwork pharmacological analysis showed that there were 1599 targets of intestinal IRI， 199 targets of AS-Ⅳ action， 197 targets of pyroptosis， and 20 targets common to all three. There were 10 core targets， including NLRP3， TXNIP， silencing information regulator 1 （SIRT1）， high mobility group protein 1 （HMGB1）， interleukin-18 （IL-18）， GSDMD， and metallo matrix protease-9 （MMP-9），et al. The results of in vivo experiments showed that compared with the normal group， Chiu's score was elevated in the model group， the levels of IL-18，IL-1β inflammatory factors in mouse intestinal tissues were elevated （P<0.05）， and the protein expression levels of TXNIP， NLRP3， Caspase-1， and GSDMD were elevated （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group，Chiu's score was decreased in the administered group and NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group，the level of IL-18，IL-1β inflammatory factors in the intestinal tissue of mice was decreased（P<0.05）， and the level of TXNIP，NLRP3，Caspase-1，GSDMD protein expression was decreased（P<0.05）. Compared with the administered group， Chiu's score was elevated in the NLRP3 agonist NSS group， the levels of IL-18， IL-1β inflammatory factors in mouse intestinal tissues were elevated （P<0.05）， and the protein expression levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and GSDMD were elevated （P<0.05）. Compared with the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group， the NLRP3 agonist NSS group had elevated Chiu's scores， elevated levels of IL-18，IL-1β inflammatory factors in mouse intestinal tissues （P<0.05）， and elevated levels of TXNIP，NLRP3， Caspase-1， and GSDMD protein expression （P<0.05）. ConclusionNetwork pharmacological predictions were consistent with the results of in vivo experiments， and astragaloside attenuated intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting cellular pyroptosis through the TXNIP-NLRP3 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the anesthetic effects and adverse effects of cypropofol and propofol combined with alfentanil,respectively,for gastroenteroscopy.Methods A total of 162 patients who underwent elective gastroenteroscopy at the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Center of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January to February 2024 were enrolled,including 86 males and 76 females,at an age of 18～65 years old,with a BMI value of 18～30 kg/m2,and ASA grade ≤ Ⅱ.They were randomly divided into propofol group(Group P)and cypropofol group(Group C),with 81 cases in each group.All patients were sedated with 0.7 μg/kg alfentanil,and in 30 s later,2 mg/kg propofol and 0.4 mg/kg cypropofol was intravenously dripped into Group P and Group C,respectively.When the modified alertness/sedation score(MOAA/S)≤1,a gastroscope was started to insert.The related indicators,including total procedure time,successful cases of sedation,induction time and awakening time,heart rate,blood pressure,and pulse oximetry saturation were recorded,occurrence of adverse reactions such as hypotension,respiratory depression,injection pain,intraoperative body movement,nausea and vomiting were observed,and the satisfaction of endoscopists and of patients to anesthesia were recorded and compared between the 2 groups.Results There were no statistical differences in the success rate of sedation,induction time and awakening time between the 2 groups.The patients of the Group C had more stable intraoperative vital signs,statistically lower incidences of injection pain,respiratory depression and hypotension(P＜0.05),and increased satisfaction for anesthesia(P＜0.05)when compared with those in Group P.No obvious difference were observed in the satisfaction of endoscopist to anesthesia between the 2 groups.Conclusion In combination with small-dose alfentanil,0.4 mg/kg cypropofol shows similar sedation effect as 2 mg/kg propofol in gastroenteroscopy,with comparable induction and awakening time.Cypropofol has more advantages in stable intraoperative vital signs,less adverse effects such as low blood pressure,respiratory depression and injection pain,higher the patient satisfaction,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of ciprofol for sedation and anesthesia outside the operating room.Methods Databases such as PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang Data,CBM,and VIP were searched for randomized controlled trials(RCTs)related to the efficacy and safety of ciprofol for sedation and anesthesia outside the operating room.The search covered all publications up to June 2023.Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software and Stata 15.0.Results Twelve RCTs were included,involving 2 192 patients,of which 1 154 were in the ciprofol group and 1 038 in the propofol group.Compared with the propofol group,the anesthesia induction time(MD=0.28 min,95％CI 0.08-0.47 min,P=0.006)and recovery time(MD=1.16 min,95％CI 0.44-1.87 min,P=0.001)were significantly longer in the ciprofol group,and the inci-dences of injection pain(OR=0.04,95％CI 0.02-0.06,P＜0.001),hypotension(OR=0.64,95％CI 0.49-0.83,P=0.0008),hypoxemia(OR=0.44,95％CI 0.21-0.91,P=0.03),and respirato-ry depression(OR=0.19,95％CI 0.11-0.32,P＜0.001)were significantly lower.There were no sta-tistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of sedation success rate,physician satisfac-tion,the difference in heart rate before and after anesthesia induction,incidence of body movement,brady-cardia,nausea and vomiting,and dizziness.Conclusion The anesthetic effect of cyclopofol and propofol is similar when used for anesthesia outside the operating room.Compared to propofol,ciprofol offers comparable anesthetic effects for sedation and anesthesia outside the operating room,with a lesser impact on respiratory function and more stable hemodynamics.Ciprofol also significantly lowers the incidence of adverse reactions such as injection pain,hypotension,hypoxemia,and respiratory depression.

Geoda 1.18 software was used for global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis, SaTScan 9.6 software was used for spatio-temporal scanning analysis, and ArcGis 10.7 software was used for map drawing and visual display.Results:A total of 3 753 cases of HFRS were reported in Shandong Province from 2017 to 2020, including 56 deaths. The annual incidence rate was 1.26/100 000, 1.22/100 000, 0.75/100 000 and 0.53/100 000, respectively, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.94/100 000. The incidence of HFRS was obviously seasonal, mainly concentrated in autumn and winter from October to December, accounting for 50.41% (1 892/3 753). The age of onset was mainly 30-59 years old, accounting for 61.68% (2 315/3 753). The male to female ratio was 2.76 ∶ 1.00 (2 756 ∶ 997). The occupation distribution was mainly farmers, accounting for 81.99% (3 077/3 753). The global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that HFRS showed spatial aggregation areas in each year from 2017 to 2020 (Moran' I = 0.38, 0.33, 0.59, 0.46, Z = 7.47, 7.23, 10.69, 8.66, P < 0.001). The local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that "high-high" aggregation areas were mainly concentrated in central and southeast of Shandong Province, while "low-low" aggregation areas were mainly concentrated in northwest of Shandong Province. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis revealed 1 type Ⅰ agglomerations and 2 type Ⅱ aggregation areas. The type Ⅰ aggregation areas occurred from October to November 2018, covering 22 counties (districts) of 5 cities in Qingdao, Yantai, Weifang, Weihai and Rizhao. The first type Ⅱ aggregation area occurred from October to November 2017, involving 23 counties (districts) of 8 cities in Jinan, Zibo, Zaozhuang, Weifang, Jining, Tai 'an, Rizhao and Linyi. The second type Ⅱ aggregation area occurred in Jinxiang County, Jining City from February to March 2017. Conclusion:The incidence of HFRS in Shandong Province from 2017 to 2020 has obvious spatio-temporal aggregation, and the hot spots are concentrated in central and southeast of Shandong Province, which should be regarded as a key area for prevention and control of HFRS.
