Conventional X-ray coronary angiography using iodinated contrast media is the gold standard technique for diagnosing coronary artery disease and determining treatment strategies,including percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).However,severe allergy to iodinated contrast agents and renal insufficiency,as well as severely hyperthyroid patients,limit the use of iodinated contrast agents,especially in the face of acute coronary syndromes requiring emergency PCI.Gadolinium-based contrast agent is mainly developed for use in magnetic resonance imaging examinations,and there are few studies on whether it can be used for coronary angiography.We report a case of a patient who had a severe allergic reaction to an iodine contrast agent,and ultimately had a successful complex coronary intervention guided by the application of Gadolinium-based contrast agent combined with intravascular ultrasound.This case and a review of the relevant literature provide new ideas for coronary artery examination and treatment in patients with contraindications to iodine.

Objective:To investigate the early diagnosis value of Pentraxin-3(PTX-3)promoter methylation for complicated appendicitis.Methods:Patients with appendicitis and healthy physical examination from Qingdao Hiser Medical Group were selected as the research objects,and they were divided into complicated appendicitis group(CA),simple appendicitis group(SA)and healthy control group(HCs).Plasma PTX-3 levels,mRNA expression,promoter methylation status,and clinical parameters—including total bilirubin(TBIL),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),albumin(Alb),white blood cell count(WBC),neutrophil count(NEU),C-reactive protein(CRP),and procalcitonin(PCT)—were analyzed.in each group.Spearman correlation analysis was used to test the correlation of variables.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to test the correlation between PTX-3 gene methylation and clinical parameters.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)was used to analyze the diagnostic value of PTX-3 methylation for CA.Results:The mRNA level and plasma concentration of PTX-3 in CA group were significantly higher than those in SA group and HCs group,while the methylation frequency of PTX-3 in CA group was significantly lower than that in SA group and HCs group(P<0.05).The methylation status of PTX-3 gene was significantly correlated with inflammatory markers(WBC,NEU,PCT,CRP)(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that WBC,CRP and PCT were independent influencing factors of PTX-3 gene promoter methylation(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the PTX-3 mRNA level in peripheral blood of CA patients was negatively correlated with its methylation status(P<0.001).PTX-3 mRNA level was positively correlated with WBC,NEU,CRP and PCT levels(P<0.05).The sensitivity and specificity of PTX-3 gene methylation in the diagnosis of CA were 94.67%and 76.67%,re-spectively.When CA was diagnosed from SA patients,the AUCs of PTX-3 methylation were significantly higher than those of WBC,NEU,CRP and PCT(P<0.001).Conclusion:PTX-3 promoter methylation is involved in the pathogen-esis of AA by regulating the expression of PTX-3.It can be used to monitor the inflammatory state of patients with com-plicated appendicitis and serve as a non-invasive early diagnosis biomarker for complicated appendicitis.

Objective To explore the effects of dodecanoylcarnitine(DA)and myristoleic acid(MA)on the function of mouse alveolar epithelial cell line MLE-12 and their underlying mechanisms.Methods An inflammatory model was established by stimulating MLE-12 cells with IL-4.The expression levels of DA,MA,and sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)in the cell supernatant were detected by ELISA.MLE-12 cells were separately intervened with DA and MA.RT-PCR and flow cytometry were used to detect the expression changes of inflammatory factors IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS).Additionally,Western blot was performed to detect the expression of key proteins such as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(p-38 MAPK)and src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 1(SHP-1).To explore the role of S1PR2 in the effects of DA and MA,MLE-12 cells were pretreated with the S1PR2 inhibitor JTE-013,and the above experiments were repeated.Results IL-4 stimulation significantly upregulated the levels of DA,MA,and S1P in MLE-12 cells(P<0.05).DA/MA treatment groups exhibited significantly increased expression of IL-6 and TNF-α compared with the control group(P<0.05),along with elevated ROS levels(P<0.05).Western blot analysis revealed that DA/MA promoted SHP-1 dephosphorylation and phosphorylated p38 MAPK activation in MLE-12 cells.Notably,JTE-013 pre-treatment completely reversed these effects(P<0.05).Conclusion Asthma-related metabolites DA and MA exacerbate the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses of MLE-12 cells by activating the S1PR2 receptor,promoting the dephosphorylation of SHP-1 and the activation of the p-p38 MAPK pathway.This study reveals the core regulatory role of S1PR2 in this pathway as well.

Aim To explore the therapeutic effect of Shenwuyishen tablets(SWYST)in treating chronic kidney disease(CKD)and the underlying mechanism.Methods The pharmacological action of SWYST was evaluated in folic acid(FA)-induced mouse models by levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen,in-dexes of tubulointerstitial inflammation and tubular in-jury,and degrees of renal fibrosis.Differential genes from 22 types of cells in kidney tissue of CKD were i-dentified by single-cell and single-nuclei RNA sequen-cing datasets.Network pharmacology was used to pre-dict key ingredients,cells,and targets.The binding mode between the key ingredients and key targets was elucidated using molecular docking and molecular dy-namics simulation.Results Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels,tubulointerstitial inflamma-tion and tubular injury indexes,and renal fibrosis de-grees were significantly reduced by SWYST administra-tion.Quercetin,kaempferol,luteolin,baicalein and wogonin were considered as key components that main-ly acted through FOS and JUN of endothelial cells,neu-trophils and thick ascending limb cells to ameliorate CKD.Molecular docking and molecular dynamics sim-ulation revealed that quercetin stably occupied the cross pocket of FOS-JUN heterodimers to inhibit the binding between FOS-JUN heterodimers and DNA.Conclusion SWYST inhibits the binding of FOS-JUN heterodimers and DNA of endothelial cells,neutrophils and thick ascending limb cells to ameliorate CKD.

This study aims to isolate and culture primary rabbit spinal cord microvascular endothelial cells in vitro,providing a practical source of test cells for spinal cord injury research.Spinal cord tissue was aseptically extracted from one-month-old rabbits and processed sequentially through mincing,bovine serum albumin density gradient centrifugation,mesh filtration,and type Ⅱ collagenase digestion to ob-tain purified spinal cord microvascular segments.The microvascular segments were homogeneously mixed with an apprapriate volume of M199 complete culture medium and seeded into a culture dish for primary culture.Throughout the culture period,cell growth performance were continuously observed and recor-ded.Additionally,immunocytochemical staining was performed to evaluate the expression of factor Ⅷ-re-lated antigen.The results showed that after 24 hours of inoculation,a small amount of endothelial-like cells were observed to emerge from the spinal cord microvascular segments.Within 36～60 hours,the cell colonies gradually expanded and fused.After 72 hours,the cells spread across the base of the dish,forming a"cobblestone-like"monolayer.Immunocytochemical staining showed that more than 99％of the cells showed brown-red cytoplasm and were positive for factor Ⅷ-related antigen.It is these results that suggest this study has successfully established a convenient and stable primary rabbit spinal cord micro-vascular endothelial cells culture method.

Objective To investigate the effects of long non-coding RNA FGD5-AS1 on the proliferation,migration,and invasion of pituitary adenoma(PA)cells,and to analyze its potential mechanism of action.Methods Human PA cell lines HPAs,RC-4BC,HP75,and human astrocyte cell line NHA were cultured in vitro.The expression levels of FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a in the above cell lines were detected by RT-PCR.HP75 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into the silencing group and the negative control group.The silencing group was transfected with shRNA-FGD5-AS1,while the negative control group was transfected with shRNA-NC.The expression levels of FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a in the two groups of cells were detected by RT-PCR.The proliferation,migration and invasion abilities of the two groups of cells were determined by CCK-8 assay,wound healing assay,and Transwell assay.The expression of proteins related to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in the two groups of cells was detected by Western blot.The targeting relationship between FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a was verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay.Results Compared with the NHA cell,the expression level of FGD5-AS1 was significantly increased in the HPAs,RC-4BC,and HP75 cells((P<0.05),whereas the expression level of miR-15a was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the negative control group,the expression level of FGD5-AS1 was decreased(P<0.05),the expression level of miR-15a was increased(P<0.05),the OD value was decreased(P<0.05),the migration and invasion abilities of cells were reduced(P<0.05),and the expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin proteins was decreased in the silencing group of HP75 cells(P<0.05).FGD5-AS1 could specifically bind to miR-15a,leading to a decrease in cell luciferase activity(P<0.05).Conclusion FGD5-AS1 is overexpressed in PA cells,and silencing FGD5-AS1 can inhibit the proliferation,migration,and invasion of PA cells,and the mechanism is related to its targeted regulation of miR-15a.
