Objective:To investigate the effects of extracts of Rhizoma Sparganii and Rhizoma Curcumae on cartilage damage in osteoarthritis rats and NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2)/reactive oxygen species (ROS)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways. Methods:Rats (50 cases) were divided into the sham group, and model group, as well as the low, medium, and high dose groups of extracts of Rhizoma Sparganii and Rhizoma Curcumae, with 10 rats in each group. Except for sham group, the rat model of cartilage damage in knee osteoarthritis was established. On the second day after modeling, the rats in the low, medium, and high dose groups received intragastric extracts perfusion of Rhizoma Sparganii and Rhizoma Curcumae at the doses of 5, 10, and 20 g/kg respectively. The rats in the sham and model groups received intragastric equivalent 0.9% sodium chloride solution perfusion, once daily, for 20 days by continuous administration. The knee joint behavior, bone metabolism indicators, serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) levels, inflammatory factors, NOX2, and NF-κB levels of each group were observed. Results:Compared with the model group, the behavioral abnormality scores, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), MDA, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), NOX2, and NF-κB levels in the low, medium, and high dose groups were all gradually decreased (all P < 0.05), while proteoglycan, SOD, GSH, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in the low, medium, and high dose groups were all gradually increased (all P < 0.05), and it was dose-dependent. Conclusions:Rhizoma Sparganii and Rhizoma Curcumae extracts can effectively improve cartilage damage in osteoarthritis rats, and it may be related to the inhibition of the NOX2/ROS/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Osteoporosis （OP） is a systemic metabolic bone disease. Amid population aging， OP has become a major health problem for the middle-aged and the elderly in China. Aging， iron load， and estrogen deficiency break the balance between oxidation and antioxidant systems， and the increase of reactive oxygen species mediates oxidative stress to damage DNA， lipids， proteins and other macromolecules， thus accelerating cell apoptosis and inducing OP， obesity， and neurodegenerative disorders. It has been found that oxidative stress is of great significance in the pathogenesis of OP. Oxidative stress regulates the signaling pathways， cytokines， and proteins related to the mesenchymal stem cells， osteoblasts， and osteoclasts， thereby weakening the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells， inhibiting osteoblast mineralization， and promoting the activation， proliferation， and maturation of osteoclasts. As a result， the dynamic imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation occurs， influencing bone remodeling and promoting the progression of OP. At the moment， anti-bone resorption drugs， bone formation-promoting drugs， and hormones are mainly used in clinical settings in western medicine. However， due to the long treatment cycle and the occurrence of serious gastrointestinal reactions， hypocalcemia， osteonecrosis， and others， patients show poor compliance and thus the effect is not as expected. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） demonstrates remarkable effect on OP attributing to the multi-pathway and multi-target characteristics. With low price and few adverse reactions， TCM is widely applied in clinical practice in comparison with western medicine. TCM has unique advantages in the treatment of OP by regulating oxidative stress. It exerts the therapeutic effect on OP by modulating different signaling pathways， providing new mindset for the treatment of this disease. Therefore， through literature research， this study summarized the research on mechanism of oxidative stress in OP and the treatment by TCM， which is expected to lay a foundation for further research.

Objective:To investigate the Correlation between ADC combined with serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP), It provides scientific basis for early prediction of DEACMP.Methods:According to the design principle of case-control study, the data of acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) patients admitted to Shandong Provincial Hospital from December 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively selected. Among them, patients with DEACMP were selected as the case group, without DEACMP were used as the control group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on the two groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of ADC combined with CRP as a combined predictor for disease.Results:A total of 89 patients with ACOP were included, including 33 patients with DEACMP and 56 patients without DEACMP. There were no significant differences in gender, age, smoking, drinking, and underlying diseases (hypertension, coronary heart disease) between groups ( P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that white blood cell count (WBC) ( OR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.19-2.26, P=0.003), CRP ( OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.03-1.45, P=0.019) and ADC value of central semiovale white matter ( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P=0.010) were associated with DEACMP in patients with ACOP. The ROC curve results showed that the area under the ROC of ADC combined with CRP in the center of semiovale was 0.765 (95% CI: 0.656-0.845), the specificity was 87.9%, the sensitivity was 23.2%, and the cut-off value was 3.5°. Conclusions:WBC, CRP and ADC value of central semiovale are independent factors for DEACMP. ADC value of central semiovale combined with CRP has more clinical value in the early diagnosis of DEACMP. For ACOP patients with DEACMP triggering factors, the diagnosis and treatment awareness of early screening of brain magnetic resonance imaging should be strengthened to avoid DEACMP.

Claudin18.2(CLDN18.2)is a tight junction protein that is overexpressed in a variety of solid tumors such as gastrointestinal cancer and oesophageal cancer.It has been identified as a promising target and a potential biomarker to diagnose tumor,evaluate efficacy,and determine patient prognosis.TST001 is a recombinant humanized CLDN18.2 antibody that selectively binds to the extracellular loop of human Claudin18.2.In this study,we constructed a solid target radionuclide zirconium-89(89Zr)labled-TST001 to detect the expression of in the human stomach cancer BGC823CLDN18.2 cell lines.The[89Zr]Zr-des-ferrioxamine(DFO)-TST001 showed high radiochemical purity(RCP,＞99％)and specific activity(24.15±1.34 GBq/μmol),and was stable in 5％human serum albumin,and phosphate buffer saline(＞85％RCP at 96 h).The EC50 values of TST001 and DFO-TST001 were as high as 0.413±0.055 and 0.361±0.058 nM(P＞0.05),respectively.The radiotracer had a significantly higher average standard uptake values in CLDN18.2-positive tumors than in CLDN18.2-negative tumors(1.11±0.02 vs.0.49±0.03,P=0.0016)2 days post injection(p.i.).BGC823CLDN18.2 mice models showed high tumor/muscle ratios 96 h p.i.with[89Zr]Zr-DFO-TST001 was much higher than those of the other imaging groups.Immunohistochemistry results showed that BGC823CLDN18.2 tumors were highly positive(+++)for CLDN18.2,while those in the BGC823 group did not express CLDN18.2(-).The results of ex vivo biodistribution studies showed that there was a higher distribution in the BGC823CLDN18.2 tumor bearing mice(2.05±0.16％ID/g)than BGC823 mice(0.69±0.02％ID/g)and blocking group(0.72±0.02％ID/g).A dosimetry estimation study showed that the effective dose of[89Zr]Zr-DFO-TST001 was 0.0705 mSv/MBq,which is within the range of acceptable doses for nuclear medicine research.Taken together,these re-sults suggest that Good Manufacturing Practices produced by this immuno-positron emission tomog-raphy probe can detect CLDN18.2-overexpressing tumors.

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of pelvic floor structure and electrophysiology in female patients with stroke. MethodsFrom June to December, 2020, 21 female inpatients with stroke in Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University (stroke group) were divided into urinary incontinence (UI) group (n = 6) and non-urinary incontinence (NUI) group (n = 15), and other 20 healthy subjects were as control group. They were observed with pelvic floor ultrasonography and pelvic floor surface electromyogram. ResultsAverage electromyography, integral electromyography, root mean square, mean power frequency and median frequency decreased in UI and NUI groups compared with those of the control group (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between UI group and NUI group (P > 0.05). Bladder neck position, bladder neck angle, bladder neck mobility, urethral rotation angle; and anteroposterior diameter, left-right diameter and area of levator ani muscle hiatus after Valsalva's action were all not different among three groups (F < 2.484, P > 0.05). ConclusionThe activities of pelvic floor muscles decrease in female patients with stroke, without obvious changes of pelvic floor supporting structures, whatever UI.

Hypoxia conditioning could increase the survival of transplanted neuronal progenitor cells (NPCs) in rats with cerebral ischemia but could also hinder neuronal differentiation partly by suppressing mitochondrial metabolism. In this work, the mitochondrial metabolism of hypoxia-conditioned NPCs (hcNPCs) was upregulated via the additional administration of resveratrol, an herbal compound, to resolve the limitation of hypoxia conditioning on neuronal differentiation. Resveratrol was first applied during the in vitro neuronal differentiation of hcNPCs and concurrently promoted the differentiation, synaptogenesis, and functional development of neurons derived from hcNPCs and restored the mitochondrial metabolism. Furthermore, this herbal compound was used as an adjuvant during hcNPC transplantation in a photothrombotic stroke rat model. Resveratrol promoted neuronal differentiation and increased the long-term survival of transplanted hcNPCs. 18-fluorine fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and rotarod test showed that resveratrol and hcNPC transplantation synergistically improved the neurological and metabolic recovery of stroke rats. In conclusion, resveratrol promoted the neuronal differentiation and therapeutic efficiency of hcNPCs in stroke rats via restoring mitochondrial metabolism. This work suggested a novel approach to promote the clinical translation of NPC transplantation therapy.
