With the widespread use of antibiotics, drug-resistant bacterial infections have become a significant threat to human health. Finding new antibacterial strategies that can effectively control drug-resistant bacterial infections has become an urgent task. Unlike small molecule drugs that target bacterial proteins, antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) can target genes related to bacterial resistance, pathogenesis, growth, reproduction and biofilm formation. By regulating the expression of these genes, ASO can inhibit or kill bacteria, providing a novel approach for the development of antibacterial drugs. To overcome the challenge of delivering antisense oligonucleotide into bacterial cells, various drug delivery systems have been applied in this field, including cell-penetrating peptides, lipid nanoparticles and inorganic nanoparticles, which have injected new momentum into the development of antisense oligonucleotide in the antibacterial realm. This review summarizes the current development of small nucleic acid drugs, the antibacterial mechanisms, targets, sequences and delivery vectors of antisense oligonucleotide, providing a reference for the research and development of antisense oligonucleotide in the treatment of bacterial infections.

Norepinephrine (NE) modulates synaptic transmission and long-term plasticity through distinct subtype adrenergic receptor (AR)-mediated-intracellular signaling cascades. However, the role of NE modulates glutamatergic long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) magnocellular neuroendocrine cells (MNCs) is unclear. We here investigate the effect of NE on high frequency stimulation (HFS)-induced glutamatergic LTP in rat hypothalamic PVN MNCs in vitro, by whole-cell patch-clamp recording, biocytin staining and pharmacological methods. Delivery of HFS induced glutamatergic LTP with a decrease in N2/N1 ratio in the PVN MNCs, which was enhanced by application of NE (100 nM).HFS-induced LTP was abolished by the blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) with D-APV, but it was rescued by the application of NE. NE failed to rescue HFS-induced LTP of MNCs in the presence of a selective β1-AR antagonist, CGP 20712. However, application of β1-AR agonist, dobutamine HCl rescued HFS-induced LTP of MNCs in the absence of NMDAR activity. In the absence of NMDAR activity, NE failed to rescue HFS-induced MNC LTP when protein kinase A (PKA) was inhibited by extracellular applying KT5720 or intracellular administration of PKI. These results indicate that NE activates β1-AR and triggers HFS to induce a novel glutamatergic LTP of hypothalamic PVN NMCs via the postsynaptic PKA signaling pathway in vitro in rats.

Objective: To investigate the current situation of cyberbullying and health risk behaviors among secondary vocational school students, to explore the effects of cyberbullying on health risk behaviors, so as to provide a reference for formulating intervention strategies to promote adolescent health related behaviors. Methods: From March to April 2023, a field survey was conducted on 1 184 students from one secondary vocational school each in Jilin City and Yanji City by random cluster sampling method. The data was analyzed using Chi square tests and generalized linear models. Results: Among secondary vocational school students, 839 individuals (70.9%) experienced the cyberbullying, and 1 036 individuals (87.5%) had one and more health risk behavior group. There was a positive correlation between cyberbullying and health risk behaviors ( r=0.60, P <0.01). The generalized linear model analysis showed that female and no Internet addiction were negatively correlated with the health risk behaviors of secondary vocational students ( β =-2.75, -8.90), and the single parent families and peer pressure was positively correlated with the health behaviors of secondary vocational students ( β =2.56, 4.82)( P ＜0.05). Secondary vocational students experienced cyberbullying who from single parent families, peer pressure and social oriented internet usage were more likely to engage in health risk behaviors ( β= 3.41, 4.88, 2.20, P <0.05). Conclusions The incidence of cyberbullying and health risk behaviors among secondary vocational school students is relatively high, and cyberbullying can influence the occurrence of health risk behaviors. It is important to focus on and implement guidance for internet use and health behavior education for secondary vocational students from multiple perspectives, including the family, school, and society. Corresponding intervention strategies should be taken to promote the healthy development of adolescents.

Objective:To summarize the characteristics of the participants (P), interventions (I), control measures (C), outcomes (O) and study design (S) of the clinical study of chronic back pain (CBP) in recent years; To further systematically organize the outcomes of the clinical study of CBP and their corresponding measurement tools.Methods:Clinical studies of CBP were retrieved from various databases including CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP, SinoMed, Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, etc. The search period was from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019. The retrieved literature was extracted and analyzed.The retrieved literatures will be extracted and analyzed. The retrieved literature was subjected to data extraction and analysis, and the quality of outcome indicators was evaluated according to 6 items. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale ( NOS ) was used to evaluate the quality of cohort studies and case-control studies. Analyze the relationship between outcome indicators and interventions.Results:A total of 3 028 articles were finally included after examination and screening. The top 7 diagnoses of CBP were low back pain, lumbar disc protrusion, lumbar vertebral stenosis, lumbar vertebral slip, lumbar disc degression, non-specific chronic low back pain and post-operative pain syndrome. The top 7 intervention measures in clinical studies of CBP were surgery, acupuncture, physiotherapy, Tuina, exercise therapy, Western medicine painkillers and oral Chinese patent medicines. A total of 47 outcomes and 348 outcome measurement tools were reported in the literature included.Conclusion:In the clinical study of CBP in the recent years, there are problems such as incomplete and low quality of reporting, a wide variety of outcome measurement tools and lack of uniform reporting standards. The characteristics of patients determine the common characteristics of outcomes selection and it is also necessary to consider the specific outcomes related to interventions.

Objective To preliminarily verify the effectiveness and safety of bloodletting combined with drug bamboo cups in intervention of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis,and to explore the prognostic factors that affect the efficacy of TCM regimens in the treatment of DLSS.Methods 64 consecutive patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis were enrolled.Bloodletting combined with drug bamboo cup intervention was used.Acupoints were selected and treated with the same length of the governor channel of the lumbar spine,the first and second side lines of the bladder meridian and Ashi point,weekly 2 times,8 times per course,2 consecutive courses of treatment.Before treatment,after treatment,and 1 month follow-up,the changes of the patient's lumbar spinal stenosis specific scale(SSM),modified Oswestry dysfunction index(ODI),and 12 health survey summary scores(SF-12)were observed.Using SSM symptom or function score≥0.5,the criteria for grouping were first single-factor analysis,and then logistic regression was used to analyze the prognostic factors of the treatment.Results After 2 courses of treatment,the patient's SSM symptom score(2.25±0.56),SSM function score(2.06±0.67),ODI index(15.49±8.72),and SF-12 physiological score(36.31±7.35)were more significant than before treatment Improved,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),the SF-12 psychological score(49.70±9.47),the difference was not statistically significant compared with before treatment(P>0.05);the patient's SSM symptom score(2.22±0.54)was followed up for one month,SSM function score(2.09±0.66),ODI index(15.53±8.23),SF-12 physiological score(36.55±7.25),SF-12 psychological score(50.62±9.17),which are significantly better than before treatment,and the difference is statistically significant(P<0.05),the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05)after 2 courses of treatment.The univariate logistic regression analysis of each influencing factor showed that:BMI,baseline symptom dimension,baseline functional dimension,foraminal stenosis,lateral recess stenosis,and two-stage stenosis had statistically significant differences between the effective and ineffective groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Bloodletting combined with drug bamboo cups has a certain clinical effect on degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis.
