ObjectiveTo investigate the role of silent information regulatory protein (SIRT6)/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) pathway in regulating the reprogramming of glucose metabolism in ulcerative colitis (UC) and the mechanism of intervention of Shaoyaotang. MethodsForty-eight c57bL/6 mice were randomly divided into a blank group, a model group, a Mesalazine group (0.42 g·kg-1), a Shaoyaotang group (31.08 g·kg-1), an inhibitor group (OSS-128167, 50 mg·kg-1), and an inhibitor + Shaoyaotang group (50 mg·kg-1 OSS-128167 + 31.08 g·kg-1 Shaoyaotang). A UC model was established by the administration of 2.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) solution for mice in other groups for 7 d, except for the blank group. The mice in each group were treated with saline, Mesalazine, Shaoyaotang, inhibitor, and inhibitor + Shaoyaotang, respectively, for 7 d. The mice were necropsied 24 h after the last administration of the drug. The blood was collected from the orbital region, and colon tissue was taken. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in colon tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to detect serum interleukin (IL)-10, IL-17, and IL-6 levels. A biochemical method was used to detect glucose and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) levels. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was employed to detect IL-22 and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) levels in colon tissue, and Western blot and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) were used to detect relative protein and mRNA expressions of SIRT6, HIF-1α, and LDHA. ResultsCompared with those of the blank group, disease activity index (DAI) scores of mice in the model group and inhibitor group were significantly increased (P<0.01). The length of colon tissue was significantly shortened, and colon tissue was congested and eroded. The pathohistological scores were significantly increased (P<0.01). The levels of serum inflammatory factors IL-17 and IL-6 were significantly elevated, and the levels of IL-10 were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The protein expressions of IL-22 and TGF-β1 were significantly reduced in colon tissue (P<0.01). The relative protein and mRNA expressions of SIRT6 were significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the relative protein and mRNA expressions of HIF-1α and LDHA and the contents of glucose and lactate were significantly elevated (P<0.01). The level of inflammation in the colon of the mice in the inhibitor group was more severe than that in the model group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the Mesalazine group, the Shaoyaotang group, and the inhibitor + Shaoyaotang group showed reduced colonic injury, significant decrease in serum IL-17 and IL-6, significant increase in IL-10 (P<0.01), significant increase in the protein expressions of IL-22 and TGF-β1 in colon tissue (P<0.01), significant increase in the protein expressions of SIRT6 and the relative mRNA expressions (P<0.01), and significant reduction in the protein expressions of HIF-1α and LDHA, the relative mRNA expressions, and the contents of glucose and lactate (P<0.01). Compared with those in the Shaoyaotang group, the serum IL-17 and IL-6 were significantly increased, and IL-10 was significantly decreased in the inhibitor + Shaoyaotang group (P<0.01). The protein expressions of IL-22 and TGF-β1 in colon tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The expressions of SIRT6 protein and the relative mRNA expressions were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The protein expressions of HIF-1α and LDHA, the relative mRNA expressions, and the contents of glucose and lactate were significantly elevated (P<0.01). However, the difference between the Shaoyaotang group and the Mesalazine group was not significant. ConclusionShaoyaotang can effectively treat DSS-induced mice with UC through the SIRT6/HIF-1α pathway, and its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of the SIRT6/HIF-1α pathway and glucose metabolism reprogramming and the inhibition of glycolysis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Shaoyaotang on T helper cell 17/regulatory T lymphocyte(Th17/Treg) cell balance in ulcerative colitis and decipher the intervention mechanism based on glucose metabolism reprogramming. MethodsThe mouse model of ulcerative colitis was established by the dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) method. Forty-eight C57BL/6 mice were randomly allocated into normal, model, Western drug control (mesalazine, 0.39 g·kg-1·d-1), Shaoyaotang (15.54 g·kg-1·d-1), inhibitor (2-deoxy-D-glucose, 2-DG, 100 mg·kg-1·d-1), and inhibitor (2-DG, 100 mg·kg-1·d-1) + Shaoyaotang (15.54 g·kg-1·d-1) groups. Mice were administrated with the corresponding drugs by gavage for 7 days. The general conditions and the colon injury degree were observed 24 h after the last administration. The expression of interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-17 in the colon tissue was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Western blot and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) were performed to determine the protein and mRNA levels, respectively, of hypoxia-inducing factor-1α (HIF-1α), lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA), and hexokinase 2 (HK2) in the colon tissue. Th17/Treg cell differentiation was detected by flow cytometry. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of lactic acid and glucose in the colon tissue and IL-10, IL-17, and IL-6 in the serum. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the model group showed decreases in body weight and disease activity index (DAI) (P<0.05), elevations in levels of HIF-1α, LDHA, HK2, IL-17, IL-6, Th17 cells, lactic acid, and glucose in the colon tissue (P<0.05), and declines in the levels of of IL-10 and Treg cells (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the drug administration groups showed increases in body weight and DAI (P<0.05), declines in levels of HIF-1α, LDHA, HK2, IL-17, IL-6, Th17 cells, lactic acid, and glucose in the colon tissue (P<0.05), and rises in levels of IL-10 and Treg cells (P<0.05). Shaoyaotang+2-DG group had the most obvious effect. ConclusionShaoyaotang can relieve diarrhea and bloody stool in mice with ulcerative colitis by restoring the Th17/Treg cell balance via regulation of glucose metabolism reprogramming, thus playing a role in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

ObjectiveTo explore the regulation of Shaoyaotang on glucose metabolism reprogramming of macrophages and the mechanism of this decoction in inhibiting macrophage polarization toward the M1 phenotype. MethodsHuman monocytic leukemia-1 (THP-1) cells were treated with 100 ng·L-1 phorbol myristate acetate for induction of macrophages as the normal control group. The cells treated with 100 ng·L-1 lipopolysaccharide combined with 20 ng·L-1 interferon (IFN)-γ for induction of M1-type macrophages were taken as the M1 model group. M1-type macrophages were treated with the blank serum, Shaoyaotang-containing serum, 0.5 mol·L-1 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), and Shaoyaotang-containing serum + 2-DG, respectively. After intervention, the expression of CD86 and CD206 was examined by flow cytometry. The levels of interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-10, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β were assessed by ELISA. Real-time PCR and Western blot were employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels, respectively, of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2 (HK2), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3). ResultsCompared with that in the normal control group, the expression of CD86, the marker of M1-type macrophages, increased in the M1 model group and blank serum group (P<0.01), which indicated that the M1 inflammatory model was established successfully. In addition, the M1 model group was observed with up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α and glycolysis-related factors HIF-1α, GLUT1, HK2, GAPDH, and PFKFB3 (P<0.01). Compared with the M1 model group, the Shaoyaotang-containing serum, 2-DG, and combined intervention groups showed decreased expression of CD86 (P<0.01), down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of proinflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α and glycolysis-related factors HIF-1α, GLUT1, HK2, GAPDH, and PFKFB3 produced by M1-type macrophages (P<0.01), increased expression of CD206 (marker of M2-type macrophages) (P<0.01), and elevated levels of IL-10 and TGF-β produced by M2-type macrophages (P<0.01). ConclusionShaoyaotang inhibits macrophage differentiation toward pro-inflammatory M1-type macrophages and promotes the differentiation toward anti-inflammatory M2-type macrophages by regulating glucose metabolism reprogramming. The evidence gives insights into new molecular mechanisms and targets for the treatment of ulcerative colitis with Shaoyaotang.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) performed by endoscopists for solid pancreatic lesions requiring tissue for immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining with different approach of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA).Methods:After screening 1 573 cases who underwent EUS-TA operation at the Endoscopy Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between August 2018 and October 2022, a total of 65 cases of solid pancreatic lesions whose diagnosis rely on IHC staining was collected and summarized with clinical data of each case. Among 65 cases, there were 46 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), 13 cases of pancreatic solid pseudo-papillary tumors (SPTs), and 6 cases of lymphomas and mesenchymal. Patients were categorized into ROSE group (36 cases) and non-ROSE group (29 cases) according to the presence or absence of endoscopists performed ROSE during EUS-TA operation. They were further divided into subgroups of FNA-ROSE (26 cases), FNB-ROSE (10 cases), FNA-non-ROSE (24 cases) and FNB-non-ROSE (5 cases) according to the type of EUS-TA. Diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate were compared between different groups and subgroups. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of ROSE and EUS-TA type on diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between ROSE group and non-ROSE group in terms of age, gender, bilirubin level, CA19-9 level, lesion site, lesion size, composition ratio of diagnosis, and surgical rate. The differences in mean size of lesions, needle gauge, location of puncturation, and number of needle pass between subgroups were not statistically significant. The diagnostic accuracy was 88.9% in ROSE group and 79.3% in non-ROSE group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.023). The diagnostic accuracy of FNA-ROSE group was higher than that of FNA-non-ROSE group (88.5% vs 75.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.100). The differences in diagnostic accuracy and success rate of IHC between FNB-ROSE group and FNB-non-ROSE group were not statistically significant. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis did not reveal any independent influences on diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions:ROSE performed by endoscopists improved diagnostic accuracy of EUS-TA in solid pancreatic lesions requiring IHC staining, and therefore is potentially valuable for improving the diagnostic efficiency of EUS-TA for such diseases.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of endoscopic transmural drainage, transpapillary drainage and their combination in reducing cyst recurrence in patients with disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome (DPDS).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted involving 22 patients diagnosed as having DPDS in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022. Patient data including clinical information, imaging characteristics, drainage technique, complications, and outcomes were extracted from the medical records and telephone follow-up.Results:There were 27 endoscopic treatments in 22 patients, which were categorized into 3 groups based on the procedural approach: transmural in 11 cases, transpapillary in 8, and the combination of both in 8. The combined drainage group exhibited a significantly higher drainage success rate (100.0%, 8/8) compared with the transpapillary group (50.0%, 4/8, P=0.012), with no significant difference compared with the transmural group [90.9% (10/11), P=0.621]. The one-year recurrence rate was significantly lower in the combined drainage group [0.0% (0/8)] than that in the transmural drainage group [55.6% (5/9), P=0.018], and transpapillary drainage alone [42.9% (3/7)] though it did not reach significance ( P=0.085). No significant differences were observed in treatment success rate [45.5% (5/11), 75.0% (6/8) and 87.5% (7/8), H=3.890, P=0.143], or complication incidence [54.5% (6/11), 75.0% (6/8) and 25.0% (2/8), H=3.909, P=0.142]. Conclusion:Transmural drainage combined with pancreatic duct stent placement results in satisfactory drainage of cystic fluid in the short term and significantly reduces one-year recurrence among patients with DPDS.
