Objective : To explore the effect of Wilms′ tumor 1-associated protein(WTAP) on tissue collagen deposition in pulmonary fibrosis caused by bleomycin. Methods : 60 mice were randomly divided into four groups: control group(Control group), Bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis group(BLM group), pulmonary fibrosis lentivirus empty vector control group(BLM+LV-NC group), pulmonary fibrosis WTAP lentivirus group virus group(BLM+LV-WTAP group). Experimental pulmonary fibrosis mouse model was established by subcutaneous injection of bleomycin(35 mg/kg) into the abdomen, twice a week for a total of 8 times. After modeling, Western Blot was used to detect the protein expression of fibrosis-related markers α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA), type I collagen(Collagen Ⅰ), fibronectin(Fibronectin), and WTAP protein. Masson staining and Sirius Red staining were used to detect collagen deposition. RT-qPCR was used to detect WTAP mRNA expression, WTAP lentivirus infection effect, and Collagen Ⅰ mRNA expression. Results: Compared with the Control group, the expression of pulmonary fibrosis markers α-SMA(P<0.001), Collagen Ⅰ(P<0.001), and Fibronectin(P<0.01) protein in the BLM group all increased. Masson staining(P<0.001) and Sirius Red staining(P<0.001) confirmed that significant collagen deposition occurred in the lung tissue of the BLM group. In addition, the expression of WTAP protein in the lung tissue of the BLM group increased(P<0.01). Compared with the Control group, the expression of WTAP mRNA in the BLM group increased(P<0.001). Compared with the BLM+LV-NC group, the expression of WTAP mRNA in the tissues of the BLM+LV-WTAP group decreased(P<0.001), proving that virus infection is effective. After infection with WTAP lentivirus, collagen fiber deposition decreased(P<0.001), Collagen Ⅰ mRNA(P<0.001) level decreased, and protein(P<0.001) expression decreased in the BLM+LV-WTAP group. Conclusion Knocking down of WTAP can reduce collagen deposition in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis tissue in mice and improve experimental pulmonary fibrosis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of sirtuin 2(SIRT2) on the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts(CFs)in C57BL/6 mice under angiotensin II(Ang Ⅱ) stimulation. Methods : The hearts were taken from 1 to 2 days C57BL/6 milk mice. After cutting and digesting, CFs were extracted by different adhesion centrifugation. After CFs attachment, the cells were cultured under control medium and Ang Ⅱ(100 nmol/L) medium and treated using OE-SIRT2 plasmid to overexpression the SIRT2 gene. RT-qPCR was used to detect mRNA expression of SIRT2 proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), periostin(POSTN)and type Ⅰ collagen procollagen A1(Col1A1), Western blot assay was used to measure the protein expression levels of SIRT2, PCNA, POSTN and Col1A1, CCK-8 assay and EdU assay were used to evaluate CFs proliferation rate, Transwell experiment was used to assess CFs migration activity. Results: Compared with control group, Ang Ⅱ stimulation led to down-regulation of SIRT2 expression in CFs, increased collagen expression, and promoted CFs proliferation and migration. The expression of SIRT2 was up regulated in CFs treated with OE-SIRT2 plasmid under Ang Ⅱ stimulation, Col1A1, POSTN and PCNA expression was down regulated, and CFs proliferation and migration ability decreased. Conclusion Overexpression of SIRT2 can inhibit the proliferation and migration of CFs under Ang Ⅱ stimulation, indicating that SIRT2 may be a key regulatory point in the onset and progression of cardiac fibrosis.

ObjectiveTo validate the efficacy of Yunpi Huatan Tongqiao prescription （YHTP） in down-regulating glycolysis to modulate microglia phenotype and improve inflammation and cognitive memory deficits in obstructive sleep apnea （OSA） mice. MethodForty-eight male Balb/C mice were randomly divided into a normal group， a model group， a montelukast sodium group （30 mg·kg^-1）， and low， medium， and high dose groups of YHTP （8.28， 16.56， and 33.12 g·kg^-1）， with 8 mice in each group. All groups， except the normal group， received intraperitoneal injections of lipopolysaccharide （LPS） and underwent chronic intermittent hypoxia （CIH） modeling for 4 weeks. Subsequently， the mice were treated with medications for 4 weeks and then sampled. Animal behavioral tests assessed memory impairment due to hypoxia. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to measure mRNA expression levels of M1-associated inflammatory factors interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and markers such as T lymphocyte activation antigen （CD86） and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， as well as M2-associated inflammatory factors interleukin-10 （IL-10）， transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， and the marker mannose receptor （CD206） in hippocampal tissue. Western blot was employed to detect differences in the expression of M1 and M2 microglia phenotypic markers （CD86， CD206） and glycolysis-related proteins glucose transporter type 1 （GLUT1）， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， phosphofructokinase （PFKM）， pyruvate kinase 2 （PKM2）， and monocarboxylic acid transporter 1 （MCT1）. ResultBehavioral tests showed that compared to the results in the normal group， the Y-maze autonomous alternation rate was significantly reduced in the model group （P<0.01）. The latency time for the target hole in the Barnes' maze during the training period （days 2， 3， 4） and testing period （days 5， 12） was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. M1 glial cell markers CD86 and iNOS， as well as inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA， were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. In contrast， the mRNA expression of M2 glial cell markers IL-10， CD206， and TGF-β was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The protein expression of glycolytic proteins HK2， PFKM， PKM2， MCT1， and the M1 marker CD86 was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while M2 marker CD206 protein expression was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared to the results in the model group， the Y-maze autonomous alternation rate was significantly increased in the medium and high dose groups of YHTP （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The latency time for the target hole during the training （day 4） and testing periods （days 5， 12） was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Real-time PCR results indicated that mRNA expression levels of M1-related pro-inflammatory factors in the hippocampal tissue were significantly reduced in the low， medium， and high dose groups of YHTP （P<0.01）， while M2-related inflammatory factors' mRNA expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Western blot results showed that in the medium and high dose groups of YHTP， the expression of the M1 marker CD86 in the hippocampus was reduced， whereas the expression of the M2 marker CD206 was significantly increased （P<0.01）， with a significant decrease in the expression of glycolysis-related proteins （P<0.01）. ConclusionYHTP can improve inflammation and cognitive impairment induced by hypoxia in OSA model mice. This is achieved by downregulating glycolysis in brain microglia， inhibiting M1 activation， reducing pro-inflammatory factor release， and promoting M2 activation， thereby exerting a therapeutic effect on inflammation and cognitive impairment caused by OSA.

Objective:To identify the distal and proximal influencing factors of father involvement, and explore the mediating role of father's role perception and the moderating role of depression in the effect of his family-of-origin paternal parenting on father involvement.Methods:Totally 572 fathers with children aged under 12 years old completed the father involvement questionnaire, role of the father questionnaire (ROFQ), parental bonding instrument (PBI) and the center for epidemiologic studies depression scale (CES-D). The Pearson correlation analysis and non-parametric percentile Bootstrap method were conducted via SPSS 21.0.Results:(1)Father involvement (2.86±0.58) was found to be negatively correlated with his own family-of-origin paternal indifference (7.30±3.86) ( r=-0.175, P<0.01), positively correlated with his family-of-origin paternal care (10.46±3.98) ( r=0.291, P<0.01), negatively correlated with his depression (7.07±5.09) ( r=-0.266, P<0.01) and positively correlated with his role perception (61.52±5.92) ( r=0.522, P<0.01). (2)Father's role perception partially mediated the relationship between his family-of-origin paternal care and his own paternal involvement (the mediating effect was 0.015, which was 35.71% of the total effects) and fully mediated the relationship between his family-of-origin paternal indifference and his own paternal involvement (the mediating effect was -0.016). (3)Father's depression played a moderating role between his family-of-origin paternal care and his own role perception ( β=-0.069, P<0.05). And it also played a moderating role between his family-of-origin paternal indifference and his own role perception ( β=0.121, P<0.001). The results of J-N methods showed that the values and significance of simple slopes varied according to father's depression levels in both two models. Conclusion:The paternal parenting that fathers had experienced in his family of origin is an important factor affects his own paternal involvement.In the relationship between father's family-of-origin paternal parenting and his own paternal involvement, father's role perception plays a mediating role and his depression level plays a moderating role.

Objective? To explore the clinical effects of intermittent oral gastrogavage in aged patients with dysphagia. Methods? Totally 66 aged patients with dysphagia hospitalized in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital between May 2016 and February 2018 were selected using convenient sampling and divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received nasogastric tube feeding, while patients in the treatment group received intermittent oral gastrogavage. The degree of aspiration, the effects on deglutition function and nutrition were compared between the two groups. Finally, totally 60 patients in the treatment group (n=30) and the control group (n=30) completed the study. Results? After 3 months, patients in the treatment group showed Class Ⅰ-Ⅱ aspiration, while 3 patients in the control group were found with Class Ⅲ or Ⅳaspiration (Z=-3.227,P＜ 0.05). The rehabilitation efficiency of deglutition function of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group (Z=-3.158,P＜0.05). The serum albumin and the pro-protein of the treatment group was (47.17±3.28) g/L and (0.32±0.08) g/L respectively, both higher than those of the control group (t=-10.500, 3.677; P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? Intermittent oral gastrogavage can enhance the patients' deglutition function, reduce their aspiration levels and improve their nutritional status, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the CT findings of primary abdominal dedifferentiated liposarcoma(DDL),and to improve the diagnostic accuracy.Methods CT images of 23 cases with primary abdominal DDL confirmed by pathologically were analyzed retrospectively,and the CT findings were compared with pathological results.Results The masses in 20 cases out of 23 cases were located in retroperitoneal region,2 in abdominal cavity and 1 in the pelvic extraperitoneal space.The mean diameter of the masses was 26.5 cm.CT showed the fatty and non-fatty regions in the masses.In 2 1 cases,the non-fatty region was manifested as a single mass and was located at the edge or on the surface of fatty region.In 2 cases,the non-fatty region was manifested as multiple well-defined masses and was located within the fatty region.In 2 1 cases,the fatty region showed misty density with strip and reticular septa.In 2 other cases,the fatty region showed slightly low density,mingled with some fat tissue density,which showed no enhancement with mild enhanced internal septa.In 20 cases,the non-fatty region showed soft tissue density,with mild to moderate heterogeneous enhancement.In 3 other cases,the density of non-fatty region varied between liquid and soft tissue with patchy enhancement on delayed phase.In addition,stippled calcification was found in 4 cases.Conclusion The primary abdominal DDL has relatively specific CT findings,which different dedifferentiated components pro-duce different CT characterizes.Finding well-differentiated fat components around non-fatty mass may help to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and reduce the misdiagnosis.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging(DWI),3D time of flight magnetic resonance angiography(3D-TOF MRA),and 3D arterial spin labeled MR perfusion imaging(3D-ASL)in the senile ischemic cerebrovascular diseases.Methods Ninety patients with acute cerebral infarction and 69 with transient ischemic attack were retrospectively analyzed based on data of DWI,3DTOF MRA and 3D-ASL MRI.Additionally,60 healthy individuals were recruited as a control group.SPSS 21.0 statistical software was used.Results In 90 acute cerebral infarction(ACI)group,the 3D-ASL MRI showed hypoperfusion in 85 patients,hyperperfusion in 2 patients,and no apparently perfusion abnormality in 3 patients.In 85 hypoperfusion patients,the average hypoperfusion area showed by 3D-ASL MRI was(2 543±1 133)mm2,which was higher than the area of high signal in DWI(817±413) mm2 (P＜0.01),with ASL＞DWI in 83 cases and ASL≈DWI in 2 cases.In 69 transient ischemic attack patients,25 patients had artery stenosis and abnormal ASL,11 patients had artery stenosis and normal ASL,17 patients had normal vascular and abnormal ASL,15 had normal vascular and normal ASL.The accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value were higher in 3D-TOF MRA combined with 3D-ASL than in their individual inspection(x2=10.35,P＜0.01,P＜0.05),and the rates of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis were lower in 3D-TOF MRA combined with 3D-ASL than in their individual inspection (x2 =4.93,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions ASL,MRA,and DWI can =reflect the different characteristics of the senile ischemic cerebrovascular diseases,and should be used as the standard sequence in geriatric neurology to provide more comprehensive information for the diagnosis and treatment of senile ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
