AIM:To observe how total flavonoids of Pterocarya hupehensis Skan(PHSTF)affects the migra-tion and invasion of human rheumatoid fibroblast-like synoviocyte line MH7A.METHODS:The MH7A cells were divided into control group(without any treatment),low-,medium-and high-dose(6.25,12.5 and 25 mg/L,respectively)PHSTF groups,phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)inhibitor 740Y-P(10 μmol/L)group,and 740Y-P(10 μmol/L)+high-dose(25 mg/L)PHSTF group.The viability of the MH7A cells was determined by CCK-8 assay,while the migration and inva-sion were assessed by scratch and Transwell assays.The protein levels of matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2),MMP-9,PI3K,p-PI3K,AKT and p-AKT were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with control group,the cell via-bility in PHSTF treatment groups was reduced(P<0.05),the cell wound healing area was significantly decreased(P<0.01),migratory and invasive cells in the lower chamber were significantly reduced(P<0.01),and the protein expres-sion of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and the ratios of p-PI3K/PI3K and pAKT/AKT were decreased(P<0.01).Compared with high-dose PHSTF group,the addition of PI3K/AKT pathway agonist 740Y-P significantly increased the migration and invasion ability of MH7A cells(P<0.01)and elevated the protein expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and the ratios of p-PI3K/PI3K and pAKT/AKT(P<0.01)under the treatment with PHSTF.CONCLUSION:Total flavonoids of Pterocarya hupehensis Skan could inhibit the migration and invasion of MH7A cells by regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

AIM:To investigate the impact of total flavonoids of Pterocarya hupehensis Skan(PHSTF)on the migration,invasion,and ferroptosis of non-small-cell lung cancer A549 cells.METHODS:The A549 cells were divided into control group,low-,medium-and high-dose(100,150 and 200 μg/mL)PHSTF groups,ferroptosis inhibitor liprox-statin-1(Lip-1)group,and high-dose PHSTF combined with Lip-1 group,each cultured in corresponding media.Cell via-bility was assessed using the CCK-8 assay,while cell migration and invasion abilities were determined through scratch and Transwell assays.Cell lipid peroxidation levels were measured using the glutathione(GSH)assay kit.RT-qPCR was em-ployed to assess the mRNA expression of solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),while Western blot was utilized to examine the protein expression of SLC7A11,GPX4,Kelch-like epichlorohy-drin-associated protein-1(Keap-1),nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1).RE-SULTS:Compared with control group,PHSTF significantly diminished the viability of A549 cells in a time-and dose-de-pendent manner(P＜0.01),and the cell migration and invasion were also reduced(P＜0.01),along with a significant de-crease in GSH level(P＜0.01).Treatment with PHSTF inhibited the mRNA and protein expression levels of ferroptosis-re-lated proteins,including SLC7A11 and GPX4(P＜0.01),suppressed the protein expression of Nrf2 and HO-1(P＜0.01),and enhanced the expression of Keap-1(P＜0.01).The Lip-1 partially restored the decrease in cell viability in-duced by PHSTF(P＜0.01),significantly up-regulated the protein expression levels of SLC7A11,GPX4,Nrf2 and HO-1,and suppressed the protein expression of Keap-1(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:Total flavonoids of Pterocarya hupehen-sis Skan can inhibit the migration and invasion of non-small-cell lung cancer A549 cells,and induce the cell ferroptosis by regulating the Keap-1/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of totally no tube three-port thoracoscopic surgery (TNTT) for thymic tumor via lateral thoracic approach. Methods The clinical data of patients with thymoma admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command from November 2021 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into a TNTT group and a single utility port video-assisted thoracic surgery (SVATS) group according to different surgical methods. The clinical data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 111 patients were collected. There were 44 patients in the TNTT group, including 20 males and 24 females, with an average age of 60.11±8.64 years, and 67 patients in the SVATS group, including 30 males and 37 females, with an average age of 62.40±7.92 years. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the baseline data (P>0.05). The postoperative hospital stay and intraoperative blood loss were shorter or less in the TNTT group (P<0.05), and the visual analogue scale score 48 hours after the operation was smaller in the SVATS group (P<0.05). Conclusion TNTT has a good surgical safety, and can shorten postoperative hospital stay, reduce intraoperative blood loss, and has significant advantages in enhanced recovery after surgery, but SVATS can reduce postoperative pain in patients.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨四个半LIM结构域2（FHL2）蛋白对胶质瘤细胞增殖的影响及其分子机制。方法：利用TCGA和CGGA数据库分析胶质瘤组织中FHL2 mRNA表达水平与患者预后的关系。通过WB法检测人胶质瘤组织标本及人胶质瘤细胞U87、T98G、U251、SNB19、GSC23、A172、LN229、G267和星形胶质细胞NHA中的FHL2蛋白表达水平。利用慢病毒载体构建稳定敲低FHL2的U87细胞和过表达FHL2的SNB19细胞，即U87-shGFP、U87-shFHL2-1#、U87-shFHL2-4#和SNB19-3flag、SNB19-3flag-FHL2组。通过CCK-8法、克隆形成实验检测敲低和过表达FHL2对细胞增殖的影响，免疫共沉淀（Co-IP）和液相色谱-串联质谱（LC/MS）法筛选FHL2在胶质瘤细胞中的相互作用蛋白，并用Co-IP和免疫荧光法验证它们的结合作用和共定位情况。使用酶标仪检测敲低和过表达FHL2细胞内乳酸产量和乳酸脱氢酶（LDH）活性的变化，WB法分析FHL2、LDHA及p-LDHA在正常脑组织和胶质瘤组织中的蛋白表达差异及其相互关系。在过表达 FHL2的SNB19细胞中使用LDHA的小分子抑制剂AT-101，通过CCK-8实验和酶标仪比色法验证FHL2在胶质瘤乳酸代谢中的作用，验证AT-101在胶质瘤中潜在的治疗效果。结果：Co-IP和LC/MS检测发现，FHL2与LDHA在胶质瘤细胞中存在相互作用。FHL2过表达可提高LDHA活性和乳酸生成（均P < 0.001），进而促进胶质瘤细胞增殖（P < 0.001）。相反，敲低FHL2会降低LDHA活性和乳酸产量（P < 0.001或P < 0.05）并抑制细胞增殖（P < 0.001）。AT101能抑制LDHA活性，并显著抑制FHL2促进胶质瘤细胞的增殖，同时恢复磷酸化LDHA（Y10）水平（P<0.01或P < 0.001）。结论：FHL2与LDHA蛋白相互作用，FHL2通过激活p-LDHA（Y10）的表达促进LDHA活性和乳酸产生，进而促进胶质瘤细胞的增殖，靶向这种相互作用可能成为治疗胶质瘤的潜在策略。

Objective To investigate whether activation of mitochondrial acetal dehydrogenase 2(ALDH2)alleviates hypoxic pulmonary hypertension by regulating the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway.Methods Thirty 8-week-old C57 BL/6 mice were randomized into control,hypoxia,and hypoxia+Alda-1(an ALDH2 activator)group(n=10),and the mice in the latter two groups,along with 10 ALDH2 knockout(ALDH2-/-)mice,were exposed to hypoxia(10%O2,90%N2)with or without daily intraperitoneal injection of Alda-1 for 4 weeks.The changes in right ventricular function and pressure(RVSP)of the mice were evaluated by echocardiography and right ventricular catheter test,and pulmonary artery pressure was estimated based on RVSP.Pulmonary vascular remodeling,right ventricular injury,myocardial α-SMA expression,distal pulmonary arteriole muscle normalization,right ventricular cross-sectional area,myocardial cell hypertrophy,and right cardiac hypertrophy index were assessed with HE staining,immunofluorescence staining and WGA staining,and the expressions of ALDH2,SIRT1,PGC-1α,P16INK4A and P21CIP1 were detected.In pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells with hypoxic exposure,the effect of Alda-1 and EX527 on cell senescence and protein expressions was evaluated using β-galactose staining and Western blotting.Results The wild-type mice with hypoxic exposure showed significantly increased RVSP,right ventricular free wall thickness and myocardial expressions of P16INK4A and P21CIP1,which were effectively lowered by treatment with Alda-1 but further increased in ALDH2-/-mice.In cultured pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells,hypoxic exposure significantly increased senescent cell percentage and cellular expressions of P16INK4A and P21CIP1,which were all lowered by treatment with Alda-1,but its effect was obviously attenuated by EX527 treatment.Conclusion ALDH2 alleviates hypoxia-induced senescence of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells by upregulating the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway to alleviate pulmonary hypertension in mice.

The senescence accelerate mouse prone are a model of early learning and memory impairment,because they exhibit most of the characteristics of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease,including abnormal expression of anti-aging factors,excessive increase of inflammatory factors,amyloid deposition,tau protein hyperphosphorylation,mitochondrial autophagy,the central mechanism of blood-brain barrier damage,and pathological damage of multiple systems and organs.Therefore,it has been widely used as an ideal model for Alzheimer's disease research.With the deepening of the experimental research on the mechanism of AD,it was found that SAMP8 mice showed obvious changes in behavior,histopathology and biochemical parameters compared with SAMR1,which were similar to human diseases.Therefore,this paper reviews the research progress of SAMP8 mice in recent years,in order to provide useful guidance and help for the application of SAMP8 mouse model in a variety of aging diseases.

Objective To investigate the key genes associated with ferroptosis in peri-implantitis and explore the potential mecha-nisms regulating peri-implantitis.Methods Several datasets were obtained from the GEO database.Differential expressed genes were screened,and GO and KEGG analyses were performed.A PPI network was constructed using the STRING website.Key genes were val-idated using a test set,and the diagnostic value of key genes was determined.The content and proportion of 22 immune cells in peri-im-plantitis tissues were obtained through immune infiltration analysis.Key genes were validated by qRT-PCR and Western Blot(WB).Results There were 1 138 differential genes between peri-implantitis tissues and normal gingival tissues,of which 29 were related to ferroptosis.The gene expression in peri-implantitis tissues mainly involved processes such as immune response activation.Five key genes in the ferroptosis-related differential genes,namely SOX2,GJA1,IL1B,GPX2 and CHAC1,were differentially expressed in peri-implantitis tissues and had high diagnostic value.Immune infiltration analysis showed significant changes in immune cells such as memory B cells and plasma cells in peri-implantitis tissues.qRT-PCR and WB confirmed significant differential expression of mRNA and the protein transcribed by key genes.Conclusion Differential genes between peri-implantitis and ferroptosis are screened using bioinformatics analysis and biological validation,providing new insights into the study on peri-implantitis.

Objective To investigate the value of polar residual network(PResNet)model for assisting evaluation on rat myocardial infarction(MI)segment in myocardial contrast echocardiography(MCE).Methods Twenty-five male SD rats were randomly divided into MI group(n=15)and sham operation group(n=10).MI models were established in MI group through ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery using atraumatic suture,while no intervention was given to those in sham operation group after thoracotomy.MCE images of both basal and papillary muscle levels on the short axis section of left ventricles were acquired after 1 week,which were assessed independently by 2 junior and 2 senior ultrasound physicians.The evaluating efficacy of MI segment,the mean interpretation time and the consistency were compared whether under the assistance of PResNet model or not.Results No significant difference of efficacy of evaluation on MI segment was found for senior physicians with or without assistance of PResNet model(both P＞0.05).Under the assistance of PResNet model,the efficacy of junior physicians for diagnosing MI segment was significantly improved compared with that without the assistance of PResNet model(both P＜0.01),and was comparable to that of senior physicians.Under the assistance of PResNet model,the mean interpretation time of each physician was significantly shorter than that without assistance(all P＜0.001),and the consistency between junior physicians and among junior and senior physicians were both moderate(Kappa=0.692,0.542),which became better under the assistance(Kappa=0.763,0.749).Conclusion PResNet could improve the efficacy of junior physicians for evaluation on rat MI segment in MCE images,shorten interpretation time with different aptitudes,also improve the consistency to some extent.
