OBJECTIVE To comprehensively evaluate the quality of Sanzi powder from different batches based on 12 components quantitative analysis combined with chemical pattern recognition and entropy weight-TOPSIS method. METHODS The contents of 12 components in 15 batches of Sanzi powder (No. S1-S15) were determined by HPLC-MS/MS, such as ethyl gallate, gallic acid, ferulic acid, corilagin, genipin-1-O-β-D-gentiobioside, toosendanin, geniposide, caffeic acid, methyl deacetylated coumarinate, tannic acid, rutin, quercetin. Cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were conducted on the assay results. Using variable importance projection (VIP) value>1 and P<0.05 as the evaluation criteria, the quality differential markers in Sanzi powder were screened. The entropy weight method was used to calculate the weight value, and TOPSIS method was used to rank the quality of 15 batches of Sanzi powder from superior to inferior. RESULTS The contents of the 12 components were 13.494-24.292, 2 069.608-3 188.100, 1.410-3.616, 1 065.030-2 630.584, 1 404.704-1 838.078, 101.640-354.268, 9 193.720-14 777.854, 1.240-5.060, 148.028-5 541.990, 4 261.422-5 607.438, 107.560- 195.512, 2.226-4.192 μg/g, respectively. The results of CA, PCA and OPLS-DA indicated that 15 batches of Sanzi powder could be clustered into two groups. Specifically, batches S3, S7, S10 and S15 were grouped into one category, and remaining batches were grouped into one category. VIP values of geniposide, quercetin, caffeic acid, and methyl deacetylated coumarinate were all greater than 1, with corresponding P-values less than 0.05. The results of the entropy weight-TOPSIS analysis revealed that methyl deacetylate exhibited the smallest information entropy and the highest weight. The relative closeness degrees of samples S3, S7, S10 and S15 ranged from 0.789 to 0.973, while the remaining samples ranged from 0.054 to 0.172. CONCLUSIONS The contents of 12 components in Sanzi powder could be determined accurately by using HPLC-MS/MS technology. Methyl deacetylated coumarinate, geniposide, quercetin and caffeic acid were identified as the quality differential markers. It was found that the overall quality of samples S3, S7, S10 and S15 were superior to that of other batches. Notably, the quality of Gardeniae Fructus decoction pieces emerges as a critical factor in ensuring the consistency of the preparation’s quality.

AIM:This study aims to examine the ependymin-related protein 1(EPDR1)expression in various tissues from wild-type C57BL/6 mice and type 2 diabetes(db/db)mice.The impact of EPDR1 on lipid accumulation in al-pha mouse liver 12(AML12)hepatocytes was also investigated.METHODS:Western blot was used to detect EPDR1 protein expression in the heart,liver,spleen,lung,kidney,gastrocnemius,brown adipose and brain tissues of C57BL/6 mice.Western blot and immunohistochemical(IHC)staining were also used to compare EPDR1 protein expression in the liver,gastrocnemius muscle,heart and kidney tissues of db/db and C57BL/6 mice.To develop an AML12 cell lipid deposi-tion model,palmitic acid(PA)+oleic acid(OA)was used,and the cells were transfected with adenovirus overexpressing EPDR1 or treated with exogenous recombinant EPDR1 protein(rEPDR1).ELISA was conducted to determine intracellu-lar triglyceride(TG)content,and oil red O staining was employed to assess the effect of EPDR1 on lipid accumulation in AML12 cells.RESULTS:Western blot and IHC staining results revealed that EPDR1 was widely expressed in various tis-sues of wild-type mice,with the liver exhibiting the highest protein expression level.However,EPDR1 expression was down-regulated in the liver,gastrocnemius muscle,heart and kidney tissues in diabetic db/db mice compared with wild-type mice.Oil red O staining revealed that overexpression of EPDR1 in AML12 liver cells or rEPDR1 treatment led to re-duced lipid accumulation.Furthermore,the TG content significantly decreased compared with the model group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:EPDR1 is expressed in various tissues of wild-type mice,but showed diminished expression in the liver tissues of diabetic mice.Nevertheless,enhancing the expression of EPDR1 can aid in reducing lipid accumula-tion in hepatocytes.These findings provide an experimental foundation for further exploration of the role of EPDR1 in the development of fatty liver in diabetic liver tissue.

Objective:To investigate the value of quantitative parameters of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in predicting the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy for children and adolescents with mature aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).Methods:It was a retrospective multicenter study.Clinical data of 44 children and adolescents diagnosed with mature aggressive B-cell NHL between January 2016 and January 2023 in Henan Cancer Hospital, Beijing Gaobo Boren Hospital, and the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into complete response (CR) group and non-CR group based on the international criteria for the diagnosis of pediatric NHL.Quantitative parameters of MRI, including T2 signal intensity, the minimal apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmin), maximal ADC (ADCmax), and the mean ADC (ADCmean) were measured before and within 2 weeks after CAR-T infusion.The correlation between the above parameters and the achievement of CR was analyzed.The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to assess the inter-observer agreement among observers in measuring quantitative parameters of MRI.Differences between groups were analyzed using the independent sample t-test.Factors influencing CR were identified through the binary Logistic regression analysis, and a prediction model was established.Model performance was evaluated by plotting receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results:Significant differences were observed between the CR group and non-CR group in T2 signal intensity before CAR-T infusion (267±152 vs.364±160, P=0.048), and ADCmin (0.94±0.38 vs.0.53±0.28, P<0.05), ADCmax (1.73±0.69 vs.0.84±0.43, P<0.05), ADCmean (1.28±0.48 vs.0.67±0.33, P<0.05), and T2 signal intensity within 2 weeks after CAR-T infusion (198±139 vs.345±168, P=0.004). A univariate prediction model was created by introducing the above quantitative parameters.The area under the curve (AUC), specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy of T2 signal intensity before CAR-T infusion in predicting the efficacy on children and adolescents with mature aggressive B-cell NHL were 0.800, 84.0%, 57.9%, and 72.7%, respectively.The AUC, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy of ADCmax within 2 weeks of CAR-T infusion were 0.958, 88.0%, 78.9%, and 84.1%, respectively.The AUC, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy of T2 signal intensity within 2 weeks of CAR-T infusion were 0.869, 84.0%, 68.4%, and 77.3%, respectively. Conclusions:Quantitative parameters of MRI, including ADC values and T2 signal intensity, are of great significance in the early prediction of CAR-T therapy efficacy on children and adolescents with mature aggressive B-cell NHL.Among these parameters, ADCmax presents the strongest predictive performance and serves as a valuable indicator for predicting a complete response with CAR-T treatment.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between reservation and sacrifice of remnants in the footprint area in arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tear.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 32 patients with rotator cuff tear plus remnants in the footprint area (2 cm < tear size <5 cm) who had been admitted to Department of Sports Medicine, The People's Hospital of Northern Jiangsu from May 2020 to July 2021. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to reservation or sacrifice of remnants in the footprint area in arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tear. In the remnant-reservation group (16 cases): 5 males and 11 females with an age of (61.8±9.9) years, 9 left and 7 right shoulders affected, and (3.7±1.1) cm in size of rotator cuff tear; in the remnant-sacrifice group (16 cases): 4 males and 12 females with an age of (61.3±8.8) years, 8 left and 8 right shoulders affected, and (3.9±0.9) cm in size of rotator cuff tear. The 2 groups were compared in terms of visual analogue scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Constant-Murley shoulder function score (Constant score), and range of motion of the affected shoulder before surgery, 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up. The ratio of bilateral abductor muscle strengths (affected side/healthy side) was analyzed and compared between the 2 groups, and the healing of the rotator cuff was evaluated by MRI at the last follow-up.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there were no significant differences in all their preoperative demographic data ( P>0.05). The 32 patients were followed up for (14.3±3.5) months after surgery. At 3 months after surgery, the VAS score in the remnant-reservation group [1.0 (0.0,1.0) point] was significantly lower than that in the remnant-sacrifice group [1.0 (1.0,1.0) point] ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in ASES score, Constant score or range of motion of the affected shoulder ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the ASES score, forward flexion, abduction and ratio of bilateral abductor muscle strengths (affected side/healthy side) in the remnant-reservation group [(96.1±4.8) points, 170.0 (170.0,170.0)°, 160.0 (160.0,170.0)°, and 85.5%±13.8%]were significantly better than those in the remnant-sacrifice group [(91.4±5.9) points, 160.0 (160.0,170.0)°, 150.0 (140.0,155.0)°, and 72.6%±16.9%] ( P < 0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in VAS score, Constant score, neutral external rotation angle, or body-side internal rotation ( P>0.05). The Sugaya grading for MRI rotator cuff healing was significantly different between the 2 groups at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tear, reservation of remnants in the footprint area can significantly relieve postoperative shoulder pain, and has obvious advantages in restoration of shoulder forward flexion, abduction and abductor muscle strength, leading to better healing of the rotator cuff and the large nodule than the remnant-sacrifice technique.

Objective:To evaluate the role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor-antisense long-chain non-coding RNA (BDNF-AS) in amygdala in the development of neuropathic pain (NP) in rats.Methods:Healthy clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2 months, weighing 200-260 g, were used to develop NP model via ligation of left L 5-6 spinal nerve, while control group was only subjected to the exposure of L 5-6 spinal nerve without ligation.This study was performed in two parts.Experiment Ⅰ Fifty-six rats were divided into 3 groups by the random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group, n=8), NP group ( n=24) and BDNF ( n=24). In BDNF group, exogenous BDNF was injected into bilateral amygdala at 1, 3, 6, 13 and 20 days after development of the model, with 100 pmol at each side.Eight rats were sacrificed at 7, 14 and 21 days after the model was developed in NP and BDNF groups and after the model was developed in Sham group, the brains were removed, and the amygdala was isolated for determination of the BDNF content (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), the number of BDNF-positive cells (by immunohistochemistry), and expression of BDNF-AS (by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction). Experiment Ⅱ Thirty-two rats were divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each) using the random number table method: Sham operation group, NP group, BDNF group and siRNA group.At 1, 3, 6, 13 and 20 days after development of the model, exogenous BDNF 100 pmol and siRNA-BDNF-AS 50 nmol were injected into the amygdala at each side in BDNF group and siRNA group, respectively.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured before development of the model (T 0) and at 4, 7, 14 and 21 days after development of the model (T 1-4). After the last behavioral test was completed, the rats were sacrificed, and the spinal cord tissues were collected to measure the contents of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Results:Experiment Ⅰ Compared with Sham group, the content of BDNF and the number of BDNF positive cells were significantly decreased, and the expression of BDNF-AS was up-regulated at each time point after development of the model in group NP ( P<0.05). Compared with NP group, the content of BDNF and the number of BDNF positive cells were significantly increased, and the expression of BDNF-AS was down-regulated at each time point after development of the model in group NP ( P<0.05). Experiment Ⅱ Compared with Sham group, MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T 1-4, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were increased in NP, BDNF and siRNA groups ( P<0.05). Compared with NP group, MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T 1-4, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were decreased in BDNF and siRNA groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism underlying the development of NP may be related to the up-regulation of BDNF-AS expression in amygdala, inhibition of BDNF synthesis and promotion of inflammatory responses in the spinal cord of rats.
