ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of modified Si Junzitang and Shashen Maidong Tang ［Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu prescription （YQYYJD）］ in enhancing the sensitivity of cisplatin in epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor （EGFR-TKI）-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells based on aerobic glycolysis. MethodsThe effects of different concentrations of YQYYJD （0， 2， 3， 4， 5， 6， 7， 8 g·L^-1） and cisplatin （0， 3， 6， 9， 12， 15， 18， 21， 24， 27 mg·L^-1） on the proliferation and activity of PC9/GR cells were detected by the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay after 24 hours of intervention. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration （IC₅₀） for PC9/GR cells was calculated to determine the concentrations used in subsequent experiments. PC9/GR cells were divided into blank group （complete medium）， YQYYJD group （5 g·L^-1）， cisplatin group （12 mg·L^-1）， and combined group （YQYYJD 5 g·L^-1 + cisplatin 12 mg·L^-1）. After 24 hours of intervention， cell viability was measured using CCK-8 assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by colony formation assay， and cell migration was evaluated by scratch and Transwell assays. Glucose consumption， lactate production， and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） levels were measured by colorimetric assays. The expression levels of glycolysis-related proteins， including hexokinase 2 （HK2）， phosphofructokinase P （PFKP）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， lactate dehydrogenase A （LDHA）， glucose transporter 1 （GLUT1）， and monocarboxylate transporter 4 （MCT4）， were determined by Western blot. ResultsBoth YQYYJD and cisplatin inhibited the viability of PC9/GR cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The IC₅₀ of PC9/GR cells for YQYYJD and cisplatin were 5.15 g·L^-1 and 12.91 mg·L^-1， respectively. In terms of cell proliferation， compared with the blank group， the cell survival rate and the number of colonies formed in the YQYYJD group， cisplatin group， and combined group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the YQYYJD and cisplatin groups， the combined group showed a further significant reduction in cell survival rate and colony formation （P<0.01）. In terms of cell migration， compared with the blank group， the cell migration rate and the number of cells passing through the Transwell membrane in the YQYYJD group， cisplatin group， and combined group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the YQYYJD and cisplatin groups， the combined group exhibited a further significant reduction in cell migration rate and the number of cells passing through the Transwell membrane （P<0.01）. In terms of glycolysis， compared with the blank group， glucose consumption， lactate production， and ATP levels in the YQYYJD group， cisplatin group， and combined group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the YQYYJD and cisplatin groups， the combined group showed a further significant reduction in glucose consumption， lactate production， and ATP levels （P<0.05）. Compared with the blank group， the protein expression levels of HK2， PFKP， PKM2， and LDHA in the YQYYJD， cisplatin， and combined groups were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The combined group showed a further significant reduction in the expression levels of these proteins compared with the YQYYJD and cisplatin groups （P<0.01）. No significant differences were observed in the protein expression levels of GLUT1 and MCT4 among the groups. ConclusionYQYYJD can synergistically inhibit the proliferation and migration of PC9/GR cells and enhance their sensitivity to cisplatin. The mechanism may be related to the downregulation of the expression of glycolysis-related rate-limiting enzymes， including HK2， PFKP， PKM2， and LDHA， thereby inhibiting glycolysis.

Dry eye is a chronic ocular surface disease caused by multiple factors. It is caused by the instability of tear film and the imbalance of the microenvironment of ocular surface, and may be accompanied by ocular surface inflammation, damage, and abnormal nerve sensation. The instability of tear film is its core characteristic. Mucin is an important component of the tear film and plays a role in stabilizing the tear film. The reduction of its secretion and the change of its structure lead to the occurrence and development of dry eye. The intracellular Ca2+ signal is the key to controlling the secretion of water and enzymes by exocrine glands. A decrease in the Ca2+ signal can cause dry eye. Conjunctival goblet cells are the main cells that secrete mucin. By activating the intracellular PLC-IP3-Ca2+ pathway, RyRs pathway, cAMP signaling pathway, P2X receptor, BLT1 and ChemR23 receptors, cholinergic receptor, and ALX signaling pathway, the content of Ca2+ can be increased, and the replenishment of mucin granules can be accelerated, thereby relieving the symptoms of dry eye. The Ca2+ signaling pathway may be an important target for the treatment of dry eye. This article reviews the role of mucin in dry eye and the influence of the Ca2+ signal on the secretion of mucin by conjunctival goblet cells.

Objective To investigate the value of differentiating dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans(DFSP)from neurofibroma(NF)based on MR apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)value.Methods The enhanced MR images data of 50 patients with patho-logically or clinically confirmed DFSP(36 patients)and NF(14 patients)were analyzed retrospectively.Clinical data and characteris-tics of conventional and functional MRI,including maximum diameter,margin,depth of invasion,enhancement pattern,and ADC value,were evaluated and compared between the two groups.Chi square test,independent samples t-test or Mann-Whitney U test were used to select statistically significant parameters.New diagnostic models were established via binary logistic regression analysis.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn to evaluate the diagnostic performance of these models.Results Univariate diag-nostic models were developed based on age,maximum diameter,and ADC value,while the combined model was established by logis-tic regression analysis.The area under the curve(AUC)of these models were 0.756,0.837,0.826 and 0.923,with sensitivities of 88.89%,80.56%,86.11%and 91.67%,and specificities of 64.29%,85.71%,78.57%and 92.86%,respectively.Conclusion The combined model based on ADC value,age,and maximum diameter is highly valuable for differential diagnosis between DFSP and NF.

Objective To explore the application value of an improved volume rendering algorithm based on Cuda in CT vascular imaging three-dimensional reconstruction.Methods Five cases of head and neck vascular computed tomography angiography(CTA)examinations and five cases of coronary CTA examinations were selected.The traditional Bounding-Box algorithm and the Cuda-based volume rendering reconstruction method were used for vascular three-dimensional reconstruction.The reconstruction speed and quality of the two algorithms were compared.Results Running the traditional algorithm on an RTX2060 graphics card took 50-60 ms per frame,while running the algorithm described in this study took 25-35 ms per frame,resulting in approximately a 1x speed improvement.On an RTX3060,the algorithm described in this study took 18-23 ms per frame,resulting in approximately a 1x speed improvement.The reconstruction results from all ten cases demonstrated that the algorithm described in this study provided clearer visualization of small blood vessels in the head and neck region and the distal coronary arteries.Conclusion The Cuda-based development framework achieves faster rendering speed and better image quality compared to the traditional Bounding-Box algorithm.

BACKGROUND:After the internal fixation of cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,because the affected limb is often unable to bear weight in the short term and the implants with high stiffness have a stress shielding effect on the fracture end,it is easy to cause osteoporosis of the affected limb and changes in the biomechanical distribution of the proximal femur,the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high after surgery.At present,few studies have been conducted on the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis at the proximal end of the femur occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws. OBJECTIVE:Using finite element analysis,to investigate the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws and explore the role of biomechanical factors in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:Based on the obtained CT scan data of the femur in a patient with a femoral neck fracture,a proximal femoral model for internal fixation for femoral neck fracture was established by Mimics 19.0,3-Matic,UG 11.0,Hypermesh 14.0,and Abaqus software.One finite element model of the proximal femur without osteoporosis and three finite element models of the proximal femur with osteoporosis were analyzed using Abaqus software.The stress,contact pressure,displacement peak and cloud map under different components of the four models were measured and analyzed,and the internal stress changes and distribution of the femoral head were compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The stresses and contact pressures of the femoral head and lower anterior cannulated screws varied more with the degree of osteoporosis.The peak displacement of the four models increased slowly with the degree of osteoporosis.By one-way analysis of variance,there was no significant effect of the degree of osteoporosis on the peak stress,contact pressure,and displacement of the different components.The internal stress distribution of the femoral head changed with the degree of osteoporosis.Changes in the biomechanical environment of the proximal femur have an important impact on osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Objective:To accurately measure the dynamic changes of peri-implant soft tissue within one year after the immediate implant placement and provisionalization with the modified socket-shield technique (MSST) in the esthetic zone, and to provide a basis for evaluating the effect of the modified socket-shield technique on the maintenance of peri-implant soft tissue.Methods:A total of 22 patients (22 implants) were prospectively included 1 year after completion of immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) within MSST in the esthetic zone from January 2022 to January 2024 at the Department of Oral Implantology in the Stomatological Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. The intraoral optical models of patients were obtained by an intraoral scanner system preoperatively and at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, respectively. The standard tessellation language files of intraoral optical models at multiple time points were imported to Geomagic Studio 2013 to be superimposed and aligned for analyzing the peri-implant soft tissue contour on the labial side of the implant site at multiple levels. The amount of gingival margin recession, gingival papilla change, and thickness change of the labial side of the soft tissues at each postoperative point in time were measured at each postoperative time point, as well as evaluating the esthetic effect by the pink esthetic score (PES).Results:The patients were (40±13) years old (21-75 years), including 9 males and 13 females. No adverse events occurred in all the implants during the 12-month follow-up period. The recession level of the gingival margin of the implant site (GL) was 0.08 (0.07) mm, the recession level of the mesial papilla (ML) was 0.19 (0.25) mm, and the recession level of the distal papilla (DL) was 0.19 (0.10) mm. The average collapse thickness of the soft tissue contour on the labial side of the implant (ΔD) was (0.39±0.09) mm, mainly occurring within 2 mm of the root of the gingival margin. The height of the alveolar bone was reduced by (0.17±0.08) mm. The thickness of the labial alveolar bone at 1, 3, and 5 mm root side of the implant shoulder was reduced by (0.13±0.08), (0.12±0.10) and 0.04 (0.17) mm, respectively. The postoperative pink esthetic score was 13.00 (2.25) points at 12 months, which suggested that all implant sites achieved ideal esthetic results.Conclusions:The labial soft tissue contour at implant sites shows minimal change following immediate implant placement and provisionalization using the modified socket-shield technique for 1 year in the esthetic zone.

Objective:To obtain hepatitis B virus capsid-like particles (CLPs) displaying B-cell linear epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and evaluate their immunogenicity.Methods:Four recombinant plasmids expressing fusion proteins (M1-HBc, S1-57-HBc, S14P5-HBc and S21P2-HBc) were constructed by separately replacing codon of alanine at position 80 of hepatitis B virus core protein (HBc) with four genes coding for four B-cell linear epitopes (M1, S1-57, S14P5 and S21P2). These four recombinant proteins were expressed in E. coli BL21 Star (DE3) strains. The expression products were identified using SDS-PAGE, Western blot and native agarose gel electrophoresis (NAGE). CLPs were purified by sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, verified for antigenicity by Western blot and used to immunize BALB/c mice. Serum antibody titers were detected by ELISA. Results:The recombinant fusion proteins M1-HBc and S1-57-HBc self-assembled into M1-CLP and S1-57-CLP. The titer of antibody against S1-57 polypeptide in S1-57-CLP-immunized mouse serum approached 1∶1 000 000.Conclusions:Hepatitis B virus CLPs displaying SARS-CoV-2 M1 or S1-57 linear epitopes are successfully expressed in a prokaryotic system and purified. S1-57-CLP has good immunogenicity. This study provides a new idea for the development of novel diagnostic reagents and vaccines for SARS-CoV-2.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)LINC02695 in human retinal microvascular endothelial cells(HRMECs)in high glucose(HG)environment and its effect on the proliferation,migration and neovascularization of HRMECs.Methods HRMECs was divided into four groups:the normal glucose(NG)group(5.5 mmol/L),the HG group(30.0 mmol/L),the HG+LINC02695 silenced group(HG+si-LINC02695),and the HG+silenced control group(HG+si-NC).Real-time quantita-tive fluorescent PCR(qPCR)was used to detect the expression of LINC02695 and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)mRNA in HRMECs of each group.The cell proliferation of each group was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)method.The migration ability of cells in each group was detected by Transwell as-say.The tube forming ability of cells in each group was detected by tube forming experiment.Results The qPCR results showed that compared with the NG group,LINC02695 and VEGF were highly expressed in the HG group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG group,VEGF mRNA expression level in the HG+si-LINC02695 group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The results of CCK-8 experiment showed that the proliferation ability of the HG group was significantly enhanced compared with the NG group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG group,the cell proliferation ability of the HG+si-LINC02695 group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The results of Transwell experiment showed that the cell migration ability of the HG group was significantly increased compared with the NG group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG group,the cell migration ability of the HG+si-LINC02695 group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The results of tube formation experiment showed that compared with the NG group,the tube formation ability of the HG group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG group,canalization ability of cells in the HG+si-LINC02695 group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion LINC02695 may be involved in promoting the proliferation,migration and angiogenesis of HRMECs induced by HG.
