ObjectiveTo investigate the potential mechanism of Shenqi Yiliu Formula (参芪抑瘤方) in treating precancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. MethodsThe CCK-8 assay was used to determine the optimal intervention time for Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum and the concentration of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor XAV939 depends on the survival rate of AGS gastric cancer cell line. AGS cells were divided into the gastric cancer cell group (15% blank serum), inhibitor group (selected concentration of XAV939), high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (12% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 3% blank serum), medium-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (6% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 9% blank serum), and low-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (3% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 12% blank serum). Each group was tested in triplicate. After culturing for 24 and 48 hours, cell migration and invasion were assessed by scratch assays; after a selected intervention period (48 hours), cell cycle distribution was analyzed using flow cytometry, Ki67 protein levels were detected by immunofluorescence, the protein levels of Wnt, β-catenin, GSK-3β, and intranuclear T-cell specific factor(TCF) were measured by the protein immunoblotting assay, and the mRNA expressions of these above factors were determined by quantitative real-time PCR. ResultsThe optimal intervention time for Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum was determined to be 48 hours, and the effective concentration of XAV939 was 20 μmol/L. Compared with the gastric cancer cell group, Shenqi Yiliu Formula at all doses reduced the cell migration rate at 24 and 48 hours (P<0.05), except for the low-dose group at 24 hours. Compared to the low-dose group at corresponding time points, high- and medium-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula groups showed significantly reduced migration rates, particularly the high-dose group at 48 hours (P<0.05). Compared with the gastric cancer cell group, the high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula and inhibitor groups exhibited reduced protein and mRNA levels of Wnt, β-catenin, and TCF, along with reduced Ki67 protein levels and a decreased proportion of cells in the S and G2 phases of the cell cycle, but GSK-3β protein levels, GSK-3β mRNA expression, and the proportion of cells in the G1 phase increased (P<0.05). Compared to the inhibitor group, the high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group showed a decreased proportion of G1-phase cells and an increased proportion of G2-phase cells (P<0.05), although differences in Wnt and β-catenin protein levels and mRNA expressions were not statistically significant (P>0.05). ConclusionShenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum inhibits the migration and invasion of gastric cancer AGS cells and block the cell cycle at G1 phase, and its underlying mechanism may be related to the regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Methods:The expression of TMED4 at protein level in liver cancer tissue and paracancerous tissue of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were detected by Western blotting and immunohistochemical stainning, and the correlation between its expression and clinicopathological features was analyzed. The effects of TMED4 overexpression or knockdown on proliferation, migration and healing ability of hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo were determined by cell proliferation test, Transwell test, wound healing test and subcutaneous tumor formation in nude mice. The molecular mechanism of TMED4 in regulating the biological behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma cells was preliminarily explored by pathway analysis. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The results of Western blotting showed that the expression of TMED4 at protein level in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue was lower than that in paracancerous tissue(0.52±0.29 vs. 0.83±0.22), and the difference was statistically significant( t=2.54, P=0.022). The results of immunohistochemical examination indicated that the expression of TMED4 at protein level in liver cancer tissue was lower than that in paracancerous tissue(5.46±3.37 vs. 7.58±3.08), and the difference was statistically significant( t=3.49, P<0.001). The expression of TMED4 at protein level was significantly correlated with vascular invasion and Barcelona clinic liver cancer stage( χ2=6.83 and 4.20, P=0.009 and 0.040). The results of cell proliferation assay showed that the absorbance value of SMMC-7721 cells in TMED4 overexpression group was lower than that in control group(1.38±0.05 vs. 2.37±0.08), while the optical density value of HepG2 in TMED4 knockdown group was higher than that in control group(0.76±0.04 vs. 0.54±0.01), and the differences were statistically significant( t=18.23 and 8.85, both P<0.001). The results of Transwell test showed that the number of migrated SMMC-7721 cells in TMED4 overexpression group was less than that in control group(286.30±13.01 vs. 439.70±12.34), while the number of migrated HepG2 cells in TMED4 knockdown group was higher than that in control group(249.00±6.00 vs. 160.00±6.56), and the differences were statistically significant( t=14.81 and 17.34, both P<0.001). The wound healing test showed that the healing rate of SMMC-7721 cells in TMED4 overexpression group was lower than that in control group((0.21±0.01)% vs.(0.45±0.01)%), the healing rate of HepG2 cells in TMED4 knockdown group was higher than that in control group((0.46±0.01)% vs.(0.20±0.01)%), and the differences were statistically significant( t=200.10 and 30.46, both P<0.001). The results of subcutaneous tumor formation assay in nude mice showed that the growth rate of cells in TMED4 overexpression group was slower than that in control group. After cell inoculation for 6 weeks, the subcutaneous tumor volume of mice in TMED4 overexpression group was smaller than that in control group(27.36 mm 3(138.70 mm 3) vs. 1 741.62 mm 3(1 783.39 mm 3)), the tumor weight was lower than that in control group(0.06 g(0.14 g) vs. 1.46 g(1.09 g)), and the differences were statistically significant(both Z=-2.31, both P<0.001).

Objective:We compare the consistency, similarities and differences of operating procedures, data and conclusions of air-charged catheters(ACC) and water-filled catheters(WFC), as simultaneously using ACC and WFC in pressure-flow study(PFS).Methods:This study was a prospective, synchronously controlled study, including eligible patients who underwent PFS in the Department of Urology, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2021 to March 2021. Inclusion criteria: ① Patients need PFS for lower urinary tract symptoms like frequency of urination, urgent urination, urinary incontinence and dysuria; ② Age over 18 years old. Exclusion criteria: ① Unable to complete or cooperate during the urodynamic test; ② Patients with severe urethral stricture or acute stage urinary tract infection; ③ Pregnant women. The bladder pressure was measured continuously by using a 7FDR T-DOC ?AC three-chamber bladder pressure tube, which linked to ACC sensor and improved WFC pressure conduction module. At the same time, 7FA T-DOC ?AC single-lumen rectal pressure tube and 7F Labori-CAT411 double-lumen water sac abdominal pressure tube was used to measure the ACC and WFC rectum pressure, respectively. We recorded the Pdet, Pves and Pabd measured by ACC and WFC, at the point of initial sitting position, bladder filling at 100 ml, 150 ml, 200 ml, cough, Q max, maximum Pdet and the end of urination, and compared the mean values, differences, and consistencies of our data. Result:A total of 63 patients (26 female, 37 male) were included in this study, with an average age of 59.19 years (25-86 years old). During bladder filling phase, the mean values of Pves measured by ACC and WFC were 30.78/24.67cmH 2O (initial sitting position), 29.79/25.13cmH 2O (100 ml), 30.87/25.90cmH 2O (150 ml) and 30.95/26.17cmH 2O(200 ml), respectively, the mean value of Pabd were 30.03/24.17cmH 2O (initial sitting position), 28.81/21.78cmH 2O (100ml), 28.89/21.38cmH 2O (150ml), 28.44/21.60cmH 2O (200ml), respectively, and were significantly different at each sampling point ( P<0.01). During urination period, no significant differences were found in data( P>0.05), and the data measured with ACC and WFC system have good consistency. There were significant differences in Pves(mean 57.30/49.95 cmH 2O, respectively) and Pdet(mean 54.21/43.10 cmH 2O, respectively) between ACC and WFC in cough ( P<0.01), but there was a strong linear correlation between these data between two systems(R 2=0.792 in Pves and 0.756 in Pabd). Bland-Altman analysis showed that detrusor pressure at the maximum urine flow rate maintained good consistency between ACC and WFC, which 95% CI was -13.9 cmH 2O to 15.8 cmH 2O. Conclusions:In PFS, although the ACC measurement values (Pves and Pabd) during the filling phase are higher than those WFC readings, but the absolute measurement difference is small, so there is no practical meaning in clinical practice. There was no significant difference in detrusor pressure measured during voiding phase, which indicated that the urodynamic judgment and clinical conclusions of the two systems are highly consistent in judgment of the detrusor contractility and the bladder outlet obstruction.

The improvement of symptoms before operation, test period and last follow-up were compared.Results:The urgency score was 2 (1, 3), the 24-hour micturition frequency was 17.00 (15.00, 22.75), the frequency of nocturia was 5.5 (4.0, 7.0), the single urine volume was 87.50 (70.25, 110.00) ml, the VAS score was 4.0 (3.0, 6.0) and the O′Leary-Sant score was 20.00 (17.00, 23.00) in 28 patients during the test period, which were significantly improved compared with those before operation ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the single maximum urine volume of 135.0 (102.5, 160.0) ml between the two groups ( P > 0.05). 28 patients received SNM Ⅱ permanent stimulator implantation. The median follow-up time was 29.5 (21.25, 61.75) months. Among the 28 patients, 3 patients underwent cystectomy and ileal conduit after removal of the complete SNM system due to the unsatisfied results. Twenty-five cases (89.3%) were still treated with SNM. Among them, 6 cases accepted combinative therapy of oral medicine (antihistamines, sodium pentose polysulfate, hormones, immunosuppressants, etc.). Two cases accepted combinative therapy of intravesical instillation, including heparin in one case and sodium hyaluronate in the other one. Three cases accepted combinative therapy of botulinum toxin injection.One case accepted combinative therapy of bladder augmentation. Two cases accepted combinative therapy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). One case accepted combinative therapy of oral medicine and TCM. The remaining 10 cases didn't accept any treatment. Among them, 3 cases were still treated with SNM even though they were not satisfied with the effect, including 1 case due to electrode displacement. At the last follow-up of 25 patients, the urgency score was 2 (1, 3), the 24-hour micturition frequency was 16.50 (13.00, 19.75), the frequency of nocturia was 5.5 (4.0, 9.0), the single urine volume was 105.0 (72.5, 120.0) ml, the VAS score was 4.5 (3.0, 6.0) and the O'Leary Sant score was 16.00 (14.00, 22.50), which were significantly improved compared with those before operation ( P < 0.05), but no difference with those during test period ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the single maximum urine volume of 125.0 (102.5, 150.0) ml at the last follow-up compared with preoperative and test period ( P>0.05). Conclusions:As a treatment option for refractory IC / BPS, SNM can improve the symptoms of most patients and maintain good long-term efficacy combined with other.

Objective:To investigate the effect of GluA2-3Y which is an inhibitor of AMPA(α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid) receptor internalization on cognitive function and hippocampal postsynaptic protein expression in rats with chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.Methods:Forty-eight adult male SD rats were randomly divided into Sham group, 2VO group, high-dose GluA2-3Y group and low-dose GluA2-3Y group according to random number table, with 12 rats in each group.The chronic cerebral hypoperfusion model of rat was established by two vessel occlusion (2VO) while the Sham operation was performed in rats of Sham group.The rats in high dose GluA2-3Y group and low dose GluA2-3Y group were intraperitoneal injected with 3 μmol/kg and 0.03 μmol/kg GluA2-3Y respectively once a day for 2 weeks. Rats in 2VO group and Sham group were intraperitoneally injected with control peptide. Morris water maze test and new object recognition test were performed to evaluate the learning and memory ability of rats, and Western blot was used to evaluate the expression of Akt1、GSK3β、p-GSK3β、GluA2 and PSD-95 in rat hippocampus. The expressions of GluA2 and PSD-95 in rat hippocampus were evaluated by immunofluorescence. SPSS 23.0 software was used for data analysis. The comparison between multiple groups was analyzed by one-way ANOVA and repeated measurement ANOVA was used to analyze Morris water maze results. And independent-samples t-test was used for pairwise comparisons. Results:(1)In Morris water maze trials, the results of repeated measurement ANOVA showed that the interaction between group and time of escape latency of rats in each group was not significant ( F=0.79, P>0.05), and the group main effect and time main effect were significant ( F=24.44, 40.42, both P<0.05). On the 5th day of navigation trials, the escape latency of rats in 2VO group was longer than that in sham group ( t=5.87, P<0.05). The escape latency of rats in low dose GluA2-3Y group and high dose GluA2-3Y group were significantly shorter than that in 2VO group ( t=2.20, 3.41, both P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between low dose GluA2-3Y group and high dose GluA2-3Y group ( t=1.37, P>0.05). The target quadrant residence time and resolution coefficient ((14.57±1.40)s, (0.15±0.10)) in 2VO group were significantly lower than those in Sham group ((23.71±2.57)s, (0.40±0.06)) ( t=3.23, 2.24, both P<0.05), while the target quadrant residence time in high dose GluA2-3Y group ((20.19±1.53)s) and low dose GluA2-3Y group ((20.31±2.06)s) were longer than that in 2VO group( t=2.71, 2.35, both P<0.05). The discrimination coefficients in high dose GluA2-3Y group (0.47±0.10) and low dose GluA2-3Y group (0.59±0.06) were higher than that of 2VO group ( t=2.21, 3.94, both P<0.05). (2)The Western blot results showed that the expression of PSD-95 and GluA2 in hippocampus of rats in 2VO group were significantly lower than those in Sham group ( t=2.31, 2.20, both P<0.05), and the expression of PSD-95 in high dose GluA2-3Y group (1.026±0.056) was significantly higher than that in 2VO group ((0.760±0.061), t=2.49, P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between low-dose GluA2-3Y group and 2VO group( t=0.96, P>0.05). The expression of GluA2 in low-dose GluA2-3Y group was higher than that in 2VO Group ((1.130±0.087), (0.766±0.080), t=2.37, P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between high-dose GluA2-3Y group and 2VO group( t=1.06, P>0.05). (3) Immunofluorescence showed that compared with Sham group, the expression of PSD-95 and GluA2 in 2VO group decreased ( t=4.23, 2.57, P<0.05). Compared with 2VO group, the expression of PSD-95 and GluA2 in high dose GluA2-3Y group and low dose GluA2-3Y group increased significantly, and the differences were statistically significant (PSD-95: (7.757±0.578), (12.057±0.578), t=3.14, 6.96, both P<0.05; (9.721±0.950), (16.610±0.950), t=4.56, 9.34, both P<0.05). (4) The results of Western blot showed that the expression GSK3β in hippocampus of rats in each group were not statistically different( F=2.03, P>0.05). There were significant differences in the expression of Akt1, p-GSK3β and the percentage of p-GSK3β/GSK3β in hippocampus of rats in each group ( F=8.30, 4.76, 3.57, all P<0.05). Compared with Sham group, the levels of Akt1, p-GSK3β and the percentage of p-GSK3β/GSK3β in 2VO group were significantly lower ( t=3.00, 2.81, 3.17, all P<0.05). Compared with 2VO group, the levels of Akt1, p-GSK3β and p-GSK3β/GSK3β percentage in low dose GluA2-3Y group and high-dose GluA2-3Y group were significantly higher (Akt1: t=2.05, 5.20, both P<0.05; p-GSK3β: t=2.49, 4.15, both P<0.05; p-GSK3β/GSK3β percentage: t=2.30, 2.97, both P<0.05). Conclusion:GluA2-3Y, an AMPA receptor internalization inhibitor, can alleviate the cognitive impairment in rats with chronic cerebral hypoperfusion, which may be related to the increased expression of Akt1, p-GSK3β and postsynaptic proteins.
