Abstract: Integrated stress response is an adaptive response produced by eukaryotic cells after intracellular and extracellular stimulation. The activation of integrated stress response inhibits the translation of most proteins, yet it can promote the translation of certain proteins to cope with complex cellular microenvironment changes. A large number of studies have found that in a variety of nervous system diseases, the integrated stress response can be activated by stress signals of disease-related cells and participates in the occurrence and progression of diseases through processes such as learning and memory consolidation, myelin regeneration and synaptic plasticity. This article summarizes the role, mechanism and possible drug targets of integrated stress response in central nervous system diseases and discusses the potential of pharmacological methods to regulate integrated stress response in the treatment of central nervous system diseases, in order to provide reference for pathological research on and drug development for central nervous system diseases.

Abstract Glutamate receptors are widely distributed in the central nervous system(CNS) and participate in the delivery of excitatory neurotransmitters, including ionotropic glutamate receptors and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Metabotropic glutamate receptors(mGluRs) regulate neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity, and are classified into group Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ. The roles of group Ⅰ mGluRs in psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases have been extensively studied, especially in the pathological progression of acute brain injury. Several studies have shown that group Ⅰ mGluRs can be involved in eliminating inflammatory damage, suppressing cell apoptosis, regulating neural network disorders, and promoting brain function recovery after acute brain injury. Therefore, group Ⅰ mGluRs have the potential to be effective targets for the treatment of acute brain injury. This paper reviews the distribution and function of group Ⅰ mGluRs in CNS, the pathological role in acute brain injury, and explore the potential of the development of drugs targeting group Ⅰ mGluRs.

[Objective]To analyze the value of grey-scale reversed T1-weighted(rT1)MRI in the detection of structur-al lesions of the sacroiliac joint(SIJ)in patients with axial spondyloarthritis(ax-SpA).[Methods]Fifty-two ax-SpA pa-tients who underwent both MRI and CT in our hospital within a week from February 2020 to December 2022 were retrospec-tively included.Both sacral and iliac side of each SIJ on oblique coronal images were divided into anterior,middle and pos-terior portion.Two radiologists reviewed independently three groups of MRI including T1-weighted imaging(T1WI),rT1 and T1WI+rT1 images to evaluate the structural lesions like erosions,sclerosis and joint space changes in each of the 6 re-gions of the SIJ.One of the radiologist did the evaluation again one month later.CT images were scored for lesions by a third radiologist and served as the reference standard.Intra-class correlation coefficients(ICC)were calculated to test the inter-and intra-reader agreement for the assessment of SIJ lesions.A Friedman test was performed to compare the lesion results of MRI and CT image findings.We examined the diagnostic performance[accuracy,sensitivity(SE)and specifici-ty]of different groups of MRI in the detection of lesions by using diagnostic test.A McNemar test was used to compare the differences of three groups of MRI findings.[Results]CT showed erosions in 71 joints,sclerosis in 65 and joint space changes in 53.Good inter-and intra-reader agreements were found in three groups of MRI images for the assessment of le-sions,with the best agreement in T1WI+rT1.There were no difference between T1WI+rT1 and CT for the assessment of all lesions,nor between rT1 and CT for the assessment of erosions and joint space changes(P>0.05).T1WI+rT1 yielded better accuracy and SE than T1WI in detection of all lesions(Accuracy erosions:90.3%vs 76.9%;SE erosions:91.6%vs 76.1%;Accu-racy sclerosis:89.4%vs 80.8%;SE sclerosis:84.6%vs 73.9%;Accuracy joint space changes:86.5%vs 73.1%;SE joint space changes:84.9%vs 60.4%;P<0.05).rT1 yielded better accuracy and SE than T1WI in detection of erosions and joint space changes(Accuracy erosions:87.5%vs 76.9%;SE erosions:88.7%vs 76.1%;Accuracy joint space changes:85.6%vs 73.1%;SE joint space changes:83.0%vs 60.4%;P<0.05).[Conclusions]In the detection of SIJ structural lesions in ax-SpA,rT1 improves the diagnostic perfor-mance and T1WI+rT1 is more superior to others.

With the increasing maturity of laparoscopic surgery, laparoscopic radical resec-tion of colorectal cancer has been widely used in colorectal surgery. Accurate localization of colorectal tumors and surgical margins in the absence of tactile sensation during surgery, ensuring sufficient blood flow perfusion at the anastomotic site and effectively reducing the incidence of anastomotic leakage have become barriers to the development of laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer. The application of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI) technology is expected to provide feasible solutions to the above-mentioned problems. Through this technology, accurate localization of colorectal tumors, evaluation of blood supply to the anastomotic site, lymphatic system imaging, detection of colorectal liver metastases, and protection of pelvic autonomous nerves and ureters can be achieved during laparoscopic surgery, thereby further improving the surgical quality of laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer. However, the clinical application of ICG-FI technology in colorectal surgery is relatively short, which is still in the stage of exploration and experience accumulation, and there are few guideline or consensus available for reference. Therefore, the authors aim to provide a reference for the clinical application of this technology by reviewing and summarizing relevant literature based on different application types of ICG in colo-rectal cancer surgery.

Objective:To explore effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(hUC-MSCs)on macrophage M1/M2 polarization.Methods:hUC-MSCs were co-cultured with pTHP-1 cells which were macrophage-like cells induced by PMA and tran-scriptome sequencing data were analyzed.Differentially expressed genes were screened and analyzed by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.Effect of hUC-MSCs on pTHP-1 cells proliferation was analyzed by cell proliferation assay(CCK-8 and EdU).Flow cytometry was used to verify influence of hUC-MSCs on relative contents of inflammatory cytokine TNF-α and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in pTHP-1 cells which were interaction with LPS.Effect of hUC-MSCs on M1/M2-related molecular phenotype of pTHP-1 cells was studied by qRT-PCR and flow cytometry.Results:Transcriptome sequencing data analysis showed that M1-related genes TNF-α(P<0.05)and HLA-DRA(P<0.01)decreased to a great extent and M2-related gene ARG1(P<0.05)increased to a great extent in pTHP-1 cells after co-culture with hUC-MSCs,suggesting that hUC-MSCs inhibited macrophage M1 polarization.GO and KEGG analysis showed that these dysregulated genes regulated inflammation and immune response.hUC-MSCs inhibited proliferation of pTHP-1 cells,reduced content of TNF-α and increased content of IL-10(P<0.001).qRT-PCR and flow cytometry showed mRNA expressions of HLA-DRA(P<0.05)and CD68(P<0.01)and CD14+CD11c+M1 macrophage percentage were down-regulated,while mRNA expressions of CD163(P<0.001),CD206(P<0.001)and CD14+CD163+M2 macrophage percentage were significantly up-regulated in pTHP-1 cells after co-culture with hUC-MSCs.Conclusion:hUC-MSCs inhibit macrophage polarization to M1 and promote polariza-tion to M2 in vitro.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor of the liver characterized by a high incidence rate, rapid progression, and poor prognosis. In recent years, it has been found that non-coding RNA (ncRNA) participates in the regulation of tumor immunity in tumor microenvironment (TME) and in turn affects the biological behavior of HCC. This article briefly describes the regulatory effect of ncRNA on immune cells in TME and introduces the potential value of ncRNA in the diagnosis and treatment of HCC, in order to provide potential diagnostic and treatment strategies for HCC.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world, with the features of insidious onset, low surgical resection rate, and frequent early metastasis and recurrence. With the development of new molecular biology technology in recent years, a liquid biopsy technology, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection, has achieved encouraging results. This article reviews the current research status and future prospects of ctDNA as a key component of liquid biopsy in patients with HCC, in order to provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of HCC.

Conclusion Narrative nursing can effectively improve the level of posttraumatic growth and psychological state for patients with amputation.

One major strategy to generate genetically modified mouse models is gene targeting in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells, which is used to produce gene-targeted mice for wide applications in biomedicine. However, a major bottleneck in this approach is that the robustness of germline transmission of gene-targeted ES cells can be significantly reduced by their genetic and epigenetic instability after long-term culturing, which impairs the efficiency and robustness of mouse model generation. Recently, we have established a new type of pluripotent cells termed extended pluripotent stem (EPS) cells, which have superior developmental potency and robust germline competence compared to conventional mouse ES cells. In this study, we demonstrate that mouse EPS cells well maintain developmental potency and genetic stability after long-term passage. Based on gene targeting in mouse EPS cells, we established a new approach to directly and rapidly generate gene-targeted mouse models through tetraploid complementation, which could be accomplished in approximately 2 months. Importantly, using this approach, we successfully constructed mouse models in which the human interleukin 3 (IL3) or interleukin 6 (IL6) gene was knocked into its corresponding locus in the mouse genome. Our study demonstrates the feasibility of using mouse EPS cells to rapidly generate mouse models by gene targeting, which have great application potential in biomedical research.

Dual-energy computed tomography (CT) reconstruction imaging technology is an important development direction in the field of CT imaging. The mainstream model of dual-energy CT reconstruction algorithm is the basis material decomposition model, and the projection decomposition is the crucial technique. The projection decomposition algorithm based on projection matching was a general method. With establishing the energy spectrum lookup table, we can obtain the stable solution by the least squares matching method. But the computation cost will increase dramatically when size of lookup table enlarges and it will slow down the computer. In this paper, an acceleration algorithm based on projection matching is proposed. The proposed algorithm makes use of linear equations and plane equations to fit the lookup table data, so that the projection value of the decomposition coefficients can be calculated quickly. As the result of simulation experiment, the acceleration algorithm can greatly shorten the running time of the program to get the stable and correct solution.
