Informed consent in psychological counseling is the first step for clients to initiate the counseling process， and the degree and effectiveness of informed consent are important factors that determine the subsequent effectiveness and development of psychological counseling. By elaborating on the connotation and importance of informed consent in psychological counseling， the ethical dilemmas of the issue of informed consent in psychological counseling were classified and summarized. There were ethical dilemmas， such as the lack of consensus， procedural guarantee mechanisms， special clients procedures and informed consent principles， as well as non-standard informed consent procedures in online psychological counseling. The paper also proposed to clarify the explanatory obligations of counselors， strengthen procedural ethical constraints， formulate special norms for informed consent for special subjects， and enhance the ethical education and capacity building of psychological counselors.

OBJECTIVE To study the protective effect and possible mechanism of soybean isoflavones against threatened miscarriage rats. METHODS Female mice were selected to promote estrus and mate with male mice. After pregnancy， they were randomly divided into normal group （purified water， i.g.， n＝10）， model group （purified water， i.g.， n＝9）， positive control drug group （progesterone 4 mg/kg， i.m.， n＝9）， low-， medium- and high-dose soybean isoflavone groups （25， 50 and 100 mg/kg， i.g.， n＝10）. Except for the normal group， the rest were given mifepristone+misoprostol on the 8th day of pregnancy to establish threatened miscarriage model， and then given purified water or drugs， once a day， on days 1-7 and 9-12 of pregnancy， respectively. At 14 days of pregnancy， the rates of fetal protection were counted. Serum levels of β-human chorionic gonadotrophin （β-HCG） and progesterone （P） in rats were detected. Pathological and morphological changes in rat placenta and decidua tissues were observed， and the apoptosis indexes of cells were detected； mRNA and protein expressions of factor of apoptosis related （Fas）， factor of apoptosis related ligand （FasL）， proliferating cell nuclear antigen （PCNA） and heparin binding epidermal growth factor （HB-EGF） were determined in placenta tissues， and mRNA and protein expressions of Fas， PCNA and HB-EGF in decidua tissues were detected. RESULTS In the model group， the placental tissues of rats were hyperemia and dilatation， with fewer and irregular blood vessels； severe stromal edema，inflammatory cell infiltration and iron-choledrin depositionwere observed. Compared with model group， the fetal survival rates， serum levels of β-HCG and P， the expressions of PCNA and HB-EGF mRNA and proteins in the placenta and decidua tissue of soybean isoflavone groups increased significantly （P＜ 0.05）， while pathological changes were improved significantly； cell apoptosis index in the placenta and decidua tissue， the expressions of Fas， FasL mRNA and proteins in the placenta and Fas mRNA and protein in the decidua tissue decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. The effect of soybean isoflavones was dose-dependent （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Soybean isoflavone has protective effect on threatened miscarriage， the mechanism of which is related to down-regulating the expressions of Fas and FasL mRNA and protein at the maternal-fetal interface， and up-regulating the expressions of mRNA and protein of PCNA and HB- EGF.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of berberine combined with curcumin on ath-erosclerosis(AS)by mediating M1 macrophages polarization.Methods M1-type macrophages were obtained from mouse mononuclear macrophages(RAW264.7)induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS,100 ng/mL)and interferon(IFN)-γ(20 ng/mL).A cell model was established.The cells were divided into a control group,model group,berberine group,curcumin group and berberine plus curcumin group.Concentrations of berberine and curcumin were detected by CCK-8 assay.The expression levels of M1-type macrophage markers iNOS,TNF-α,CXCL9 and p-STAT6/STAT6 in macrophage supernatant were detected by ELISA.Levels of iNOS,TNF-α and CXCL9 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR.Levels of iNOS,STAT6 and p-STAT6 proteins in each group were detected by Western blot.After down-regulation of STAT6 level by siRNA technology,expression of p-STAT6 protein was detected by Western blot.Expression levels of iNOS,TNF-α,CXCL9 and p-STAT6 were detected by ELISA.Results In the polarization of M1 macrophages induced by LPS and IFN-γ,berberine(25 μmol/L)and curcumin(20 μmol/L)were the best concentrations as compared with other drug concentration groups,and neither alone nor combined use could significantly inhibit the viability of RAW264.7 cells(P<0.05).As compared with the normal group,iNOS,TNF-α and CXCL9 mRNA and protein levels were increased in the model group,while P-STAT6/STAT6 levels were decreased,with statistical differences(P<0.05).As compared with the model group,iNOS,TNF-α and CXCL9 mRNA and protein levels in the berberine group,curcumin group,and berberine plus curcumin group were decreased,while P-STAT6/STAT6 levels were increased,and the changes were more obvious in berberine plus curcumin group,with statistical difference(P<0.05).After transfection of STAT6 siRNA in M1 macrophages in the berberine plus curcumin group,P-STAT6 levels were down-regulated,while expressions of iNOS,TNF-α and CXCL9 were up-regulated,with statistical differences(P<0.05).Conclusions Both berberine and curcumin can inhibit the activity of M1-type macrophages and reduce inflammatory response.The action of berberine combined with curcumin is more advantageous than that of either drug alone,which may be the main mechanism of action through activation of STAT6.

Objective To comprehensively understand the dynamic transcriptional landscape during infection through investigating the temporal molecular changes in macrophages RAW 264.7 upon infection with Salmonella typhimurium SL1344.Methods Macrophages RAW 264.7 were infected with Salmonella typhimurium SL1344,and cell samples were collected at 0 h,8 h,and 16 h for RNA-sequencing(RNA-seq).Upstream and downstream analyses of the transcriptome data including differential gene expression,clustering,functional annotation,and mo-lecular network studies were conducted to elucidate the signaling pathways changes in macrophages.Results Infec-ted macrophages exhibited significant morphological and transcriptional changes.Differential gene analysis identified significant upregulation and downregulation patterns.Clustering revealed six gene clusters involving various signaling pathways,such as immune response,membrane transport,and lipid catabolic process.Conclusions Macrophages dynamically respond to Salmonella typhimurium infection,displaying distinct temporal gene expression patterns.The coordinated activation of immune response,membrane transport,and lipid catabolic process pathways implies a multifaceted cellular adaptation to external infections,providing essential insights into the molecular mechanisms of macrophage response to Salmonella typhimurium infection.
