ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which 2，3，5，4'-tetrahydroxyldiphenylethylene-2-O-glucoside （THSG） mitigates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion （CI/R） injury by regulating mitochondrial calcium overload and promoting mitophagy. MethodsSixty male SD rats were randomized into sham， model， SAS （40 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium- and high-dose （10， 20， 40 mg·kg^-1， respectively） THSG groups， with 10 rats in each group. The middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion （MCAO/R） model was established by the modified Longa suture method. An oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation （OGD/R） model was constructed in PC12 cells. Neurological deficits were assessed via Zea Longa scoring， and cerebral infarct volume was measured by 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride （TTC） staining. Structural and functional changes of cortical neurons in MCAO/R rats were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin and Nissl staining. PC12 cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay， and mitochondrial calcium levels were quantified by Rhod-2 AM. Immunofluorescence was used to detect co-localization of PTEN-induced kinase 1 （PINK1） and leucine zipper/EF-hand-containing transmembrane protein 1 （LETM1） in neurons. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was employed to observe mitochondrial morphology in neurons. Western blot was employed to analyze the expression of translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20 （TOMM20）， autophagy-associated protein p62， microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 （LC3）， cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-9 （Caspase-9）， B-cell lymphoma 2-associated protein X （Bax）， and cytochrome C （Cyt C）. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group exhibited increased infarct volume （P<0.01） and neurological deficit scores （P<0.01）， neuronal structure was disrupted with reduced Nissl bodies. （P<0.01）， mitochondrial swelling/fragmentation， decreased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）， upregulated protein levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ， TOMM20， Caspase-9， Bax， and Cyt C （P<0.01）， downregulated protein level of p62 （P<0.05）， weakened PC12 viability （P<0.01）， and elevated mitochondrial calcium level （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， THSG and SAS groups showed reduced infarct volumes （P<0.05，P<0.01） and neurological deficit scores （P<0.05，P<0.01）， mitigated mitochondrial damage， and increased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）. Medium/high-dose THSG and SAS alleviated the neurological damage， increased Nissl bodies （P<0.05，P<0.01）， downregulated the protein levels of p62， TOMM20， Caspase-9， Bax， and Cyt C （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and elevated the LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ level （P<0.05，P<0.01）. High-dose THSG enhanced PC12 cell viability （P<0.01）， increased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）， and reduced mitochondrial calcium （P<0.01）. ConclusionTHSG may exert the neuroprotective effect on CI/R injury by activating the PINK1-LETM1 signaling pathway， reducing the mitochondrial calcium overload， and promoting mitophagy.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the intestinal flora in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and explore its possible mechanism based on the gut-lung axis theory. METHODS: A total of 30 male SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into a normal control (NC) group, a model group and an EA group, 10 rats in each one. In the model group and the EA group, COPD model was established by intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide combined with cigarette fumigation. In the EA group, EA was applied at bilateral "Feishu" (BL13) and "Zusanli" (ST36), with disperse-dense waves, in frequency of 4 Hz/20 Hz, current of 1-3 mA, 20 min a time, once a day for 14 days continuously. Before and after modeling, as well as after intervention, body weight was observed; after intervention, the lung function indexes (forced expiratory volume in 0.1 second [FEV_0.1], FEV_0.1/forced vital capacity [FVC]%, forced expiratory volume in 0.3 second [FEV_0.3] and FEV_0.3/FVC%) were measured, serum levels of inflammatory factors (tumor necrosis factor-α[TNF-α], interleukin-6[IL-6], interleukin-1β[IL-1β] and interleukin-10[IL-10]) were detected by ELISA, histopathology of lung and colon tissues was observed by HE staining, the intestinal flora were analyzed by 16S rRNA, and the correlations between lung function and intestinal flora were analyzed. RESULTS: Compared with the NC group, in the COPD group, the body weight and lung function indexes were reduced (P<0.01); the lung and colon tissues were damaged, the mean linear intercept (MLI) of alveolus and inflammatory cell numbers of 100 μm² in lung tissue were increased (P<0.01); the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), and the serum level of IL-10 was decreased (P<0.01); α-diversity indexes of intestinal flora were increased (P<0.01); the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria and Oscillospira, Bacteroides, Coprococcus was increased (P<0.01), the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, TM7 and Lactobacillus, Allobaculum, Bifidobacterium, YRC22 was decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05); 31 different expressed metabolic pathways were identified between the two groups. Compared with the COPD group, in the EA group, the body weight and lung function indexes were increased (P<0.01); the damage of lung and colon tissues was improved, the MLI of alveolus was decreased (P<0.05); the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were decreased (P<0.05), and the serum level of IL-10 was increased (P<0.05); α-diversity indexes of intestinal flora were decreased (P<0.01); the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria and Oscillospira, Bacteroides, Coprococcus was decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, TM7 and Lactobacillus, Allobaculum, Bifidobacterium, YRC22 was increased (P<0.01); 35 different expressed metabolic pathways were identified between the two groups. The lung function was positive related with Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, TM7 and YRC22, and was negative related with Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria and Oscillospira, Bacteroides, Coprococcus. CONCLUSION EA may ameliorate lung function and tissue injury of COPD by regulating intestinal flora dysbiosis and inflammatory response, suggesting an anti-inflammatory effect mediated via "gut-lung" axis.

Objective To prepare CD318-specific monoclonal antibodies and evaluate their specificity, affinity, and application in immunological detection, laying the foundation for the development of CD318-targeted antibody drugs. MethodsCD318 protein was expressed and purified, and was used as an antigen to immunize mice, then mice with higher antiserum titers were screened. We prepared CD318-specific monoclonal antibodies through cell fusion and monoclonal screening, and the specificity, affinity, and application of the obtained monoclonal antibodies in immunological assays were evaluated. Then we constructed a CD318/CD3-targeting bispecific antibody and assessed its impact on T-cell cytotoxicity. Results Thirteen monoclonal antibodies were successfully generated, with the hybridoma clone 13-8-G2 exhibiting the highest titer, strongest specificity, and broadest applicability. The antibody was identified as an IgG1 isotype with a kappa light chain. The variable region of the light chain measured 318 bp, while the heavy chain variable region was 357 bp, yielding an affinity constant of approximately 7.68×10⁹. The specificity of CD318 was confirmed using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence assays. Additionally, a CD318/CD3-targeting bispecific antibody was constructed using the variable regions of this CD318 monoclonal antibody, which demonstrated enhanced T-cell cytotoxicity. Conclusion High-affinity and highly specific CD318 monoclonal antibodies were successfully prepared, laying a foundation for the development of therapeutic antibodies targeting CD318.

Objective·To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,gene mutation profile,and prognostic factors of thyroid diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods·From November 2003 to December 2021,a total of 66 patients with thyroid DLBCL[23 cases(34.8%)with primary thyroid DLBCL,and 43 cases(65.2%)with secondary thyroid DLBCL]admitted to Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed for their clinicopathological data,survival and prognostic factors.Gene mutation profiles were evaluated by targeted sequencing(55 lymphoma-related genes)in 40 patients.Results·Compared to primary thyroid DLBCL,secondary thyroid DLBCL had advanced ratio of Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ?Ⅳ(P=0.000),elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)(P=0.043),number of affected extranodal involvement≥2(P=0.000),non-germinal center B cell(non-GCB)(P=0.030),BCL-2/MYC double expression(DE)(P=0.026),and international prognostic index(IPI)3?5-scores(P=0.000).The proportion of patients who underwent thyroid surgery(P=0.012)was lower than that of patients with primary thyroid DLBCL.The complete remission(CR)rate in primary thyroid DLBCL patients was higher than that in secondary thyroid DLBCL patients(P=0.039).Fifty-five patients(83%)received rituximab combined with cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine,and prednisone(R-CHOP)-based first-line regimen.The estimated 5-year progression free survival(PFS)rate of primary thyroid DLBCL patients was 95.0%,higher than the 49.7%of the secondary patients(P=0.010).Univariate analysis showed that Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=4.411,95%CI 1.373?14.170),elevated LDH(HR=5.500,95%CI 1.519?19.911),non-GCB(HR= 5.291,95%CI 1.667?16.788),and DE(HR=6.178,95%CI 1.813?21.058)were adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL.Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=7.088,95%CI 0.827?60.717),elevated LDH(HR=6.982,95%CI 0.809?60.266),and DE(HR=18.079,95%CI 1.837?177.923)were adverse prognostic factors of overall survival(OS).Multivariate analysis showed that Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=4.693,95%CI 1.218?18.081)and elevated LDH(HR=5.058,95%CI 1.166?21.941)were independent adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL.Targeted sequencing data showed mutation frequency>20%in TET2(n=14,35%),KMT2D(n=13,32%),TP53(n=11,28%),GNA13(n=10,25%),KMT2C(n=9,22%),and TP53 were adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL(P=0.000).Conclusion·Patients with primary thyroid DLBCL have better PFS and OS than those with secondary thyroid DLBCL.Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ,elevated LDH,non-GCB,and DE(MYC and BCL2)are adverse prognostic factors in thyroid DLBCL.TET2,KMT2D,TP53,GNA13,and KMT2C are commonly highly mutated genes in thyroid DLBCL,and the prognosis of patients with TP53 mutations is poor.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Baihuan Xiaoyao Decoction （Xiaoyaosan added with Lilii Bulbus and Albiziae Cortex） in alleviating depression-like behaviors of juvenile rats by regulating the polarization of microglia. MethodSixty juvenile SD rats were randomized into normal control， model， fluoxetine， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （5.36， 10.71， 21.42 g·kg^-1， respectively） Baihuan Xiaoyao decoction groups. The rat model of juvenile depression was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS）. The sucrose preference test （SPT） was carried out to examine the sucrose preference of rats. Forced swimming test （FST） was carried out to measure the immobility time of rats. The open field test （OFT） was conducted to measure the total distance， the central distance， the number of horizontal crossings， and the frequency of rearing. Morris water maze （MWM） was used to measure the escape latency and the number of crossing the platform. The immunofluorescence assay was employed to detect the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS， the polarization marker of M1 microglia） and CD206 （the polarization marker of M2 microglia）. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was employed to determine the mRNA levels of iNOS， CD206， pro-inflammatory cytokines ［tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， interleukin （IL）-1β， and IL-6］ and anti-inflammatory cytokines （IL-4 and IL-10） in the hippocampus. Western blotting was employed to determine the protein levels of iNOS and CD206 in the hippocampus. The levels of IL-4 and IL-6 in the hippocampus were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ResultCompared with the normal control group， the model rats showed a reduction in sucrose preference （P<0.05）， an increase in immobility time （P<0.05）， decreased motor and exploratory behaviors （P<0.05）， and weakened learning and spatial memory （P<0.05）. In addition， the model rats showed up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of iNOS and mRNA levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， Baihuan Xiaoyao decoction increased the sucrose preference value （P<0.05）， shortened the immobility time （P<0.01）， increased the motor and exploratory behaviors （P<0.05）， and improved the learning and spatial memory （P<0.01）. Furthermore， the decoction down-regulated the positive expression and protein level of iNOS， lowered the levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 （P<0.01）， promoted the positive expression of CD206， and elevated the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 （P<0.01） in the hippocampus of the high dose group. Moreover， the high-dose Baihuan Xiaoyao decoction group had higher sucrose preference value （P<0.01）， shorter immobility time （P<0.01）， longer central distance （P<0.01）， stronger learning and spatial memory （P<0.01）， higher positive expression and protein level of iNOS （P<0.01）， lower levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， lower positive expression and mRNA level of iNOS （P<0.05）， and higher levels of IL-4 and IL-10 （P<0.05， P<0.01） than the fluoxetine group. ConclusionBaihuan Xiaoyao decoction can improve the depression-like behavior of juvenile rats by inhibiting the M1 polarization and promoting the M2 polarization of microglia in the hippocampus.

Objective To analyze the correlation between plasma Pannexin-1(Panx-1)level and no-reflow after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with ST-segment elevation my-ocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods A prospective trial was performed on 218 STEMI patients who underwent PCI in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021.According to the blood flow classification of myocardial infarction thrombolysis(TIMI)after PCI,they were divided into normal reflow group(110 cases),slow reflow group(69 cases)and no reflow group(39 cases).The plasma Panx-1 level was determined by ELISA,and the levels of P-selectin,activated glyco-protein Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a(aGP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a)and platelet-leukocyte aggregates(PLA)were determined by flow cytometry.Results Older age,larger ratio of diabetes mellitus,longer time from symptom onset to PCI,higher platelet count and levels of LDL-C,D-dimer,P-selectin,GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a,PNA,PM A,PLyA and plasma Panx-1 were observed in the no-reflow group than the normal and slow reflow groups(P＜0.05).The plasma Panx-1 level in STEMI patients was positively correlated with P-selectin,GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a,PNA,PM A and PLyA(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).LDL-C ≥3.20 mmol/L and plasma Panx-1＞0.88 μg/mL were independent risk factors for no-reflow after PCI in STEMI pa-tients(OR=2.198,95％CI:1.252-3.858,P=0.006;OR=16.849,95％CI:4.481-63.357,P=0.000).The AUC value of Panx-1 was 0.826(95％CI:0.744-0.907,P＜0.01)in predicting no re-flux in STEMI patients after PCI.Conclusion The increase of plasma Panx-1 level is closely asso-ciated with the occurrence of no reflow in STEMI patients after PCI,and the protein can be used as a predictive biomarker for the phenomenon.

Objective:To summarize the characteristics of color doppler flow imaging (CDFI) of ocular toxocariasis (OT) in children.Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From July 2014 to June 2020, 61 OT patients with 61 eyes diagnosed through clinical and laboratory testing in the Department of Ophthalmology of Beijing Tongren Hospital of Capital Medical University were included in the study. There were 45 males with 45 eyes and 16 females with 16 eye (male: female=2.81:1). Age were (6.93±2.50) years. The right eye and left eye were 29 and 32 eyes, respectively. Both eyes of the patient underwent two-dimensional ultrasound and CDFI examination. Two dimensional ultrasound was used to estimate the axial length (AL) of the affected eyes and healthy eyes on the opposite side. Among them, 52 cases were measured for AL using optical biometry and/or A-mode ultrasound. Vitreoretinal surgery was performed within one week after ultrasound examination. Two-dimensional ultrasound was used to observe the morphology of vitreous opacity, its connection to the eyeball wall, and whether posterior vitreous detachment and retinal detachment have occurred. CDFI examination was used to observe the presence of blood flow signals on the pathological membrane. The detection rates of different forms of vitreous opacity and traction retinal detachment were calculated. The location of proliferative lesions in the eye was analyzed. Paired t-test was performed to compare the AL of the affected eye and the healthy eye on the opposite side. Perform Kappa consistency test on the location of proliferative lesions was used during CDFI examination and vitreoretinal surgery. Results:All affected eyes have varying degrees of vitreous opacity. Among them, 23 eyes (37.7%, 23/61) showed typical "Christmas tree" like turbidity; 27 eyes (44.3%, 27/61) had clustered and striped echoes; 9 eyes (14.8%, 9/61) had weak punctate and strip echoes. Two eyes (3.3%, 2/61) showed a large amount of dense punctate and strip-shaped echoes. There were 50 eyes (82.0%, 50/61) with traction retinal detachment, of which 46 eyes (92.0%, 46/50) had visible blood flow signals on the detached retina, and the remaining 4 eyes (8.0%, 4/50) had no blood flow signals. During CDFI and surgery, there were 5 (8.2%, 5/61) and 4 (6.6%, 4/61) eyes with visible proliferative lesions in the periphery, respectively; 18 (29.5%, 18/61) and 14 (23.0%, 14/61) eyes were distributed in the posterior pole, respectively; there were 38 (62.3%, 38/61) and 43 (70.5%, 43/61) eyes with both peripheral and posterior polar regions, respectively. The consistency between CDFI and surgery in detecting the location of proliferative lesions was good ( κ=0.832, 95% confidence interval 0.691-0.973, P<0.001). The two-dimensional ultrasound measurement results showed that the AL of the affected eye was shorter than that of the contralateral healthy eye in 46 cases (75.4%, 46/61). Among the 52 patients who underwent AL biometry, the AL of the affected eye was shorter than that of the contralateral healthy eye by (0.63±0.68) mm, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-6.738, P<0.05). Conclusions:CDFI can clearly display various intraocular lesions (vitreous opacity and traction retinal detachment) and eyeball sizes in children with OT. Vitreous opacity is often manifested as "Christmas tree" like, clustered, strip-shaped.

Transcrestal maxillary sinus floor elevation is an effective method to solve the problem of insufficient bone height in the posterior maxillary region.However,current methods,such as osteotome sinus floor elevation,cushioned grind-out technique,Smart Drill technique,etc.,require specialized surgical tool boxes.In this article,we introduce a new method of transcrestal maxillary sinus elevation that uses built-in reamers of various implant systems to scrap residu-al bone at the sinus floor and uses the implant to push the sinus membrane during implant placement.This technique is easy to operate and time saving and has a low rate of sinus membrane perforation.After a one-year follow-up observa-tion of 146 people and 175 implants,the endo-sinus bone gains were 5.00(4.70,5.30)mm and 2.10(1.40,2.70)mm in the group of 3 mm≤residual bone height(RBH)<5 mm and the group of 5 mm≤RBH<8 mm,respectively,which can meet the clinical requirements of implant stability.This technique is suitable in generalizing dental implantation.
