OBJECTIVE To screen the potential active components of Polygonum orientale flower against myocardial ischemia- reperfusion injury （MIRI） in rats based on physiological and pathological states. METHODS SD rats were divided into normal control group， normal administration group， MIRI control group and MIRI administration group， with 5 rats in each group. After drug intervention or modeling and drug intervention， chromatographic separation plasma samples were collected， and chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry data collection were performed by using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS. The prototype components and metabolites were analyzed by comparing the reference substance maps， the maps of each plasma sample， and the relevant literature. At the same time， the common peaks in plasma samples of rats in normal administration group and MIRI administration group were identified. Combined with principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis， the differential transitional components were screened out according to the value of variable importance in the projection （VIP）＞1， to speculate the potential active components of P. orientale flower in rats under physiological and pathological states. The SD rats were divided into control group， MIRI group， positive control group （Compound danshen tablets 0.2 g/kg， 3 times a day）， and potentially active compound groups （10 mg/kg， twice a day）， with 5 rats in each group. The rats in administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically， for 3 consecutive days. The activity of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， the leakages of lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB （CK-MB） and cardiac troponin Ⅰ （cTnⅠ） in plasma were detected after the last administration. RESULTS Twenty-six main chromatographic peaks were obtained from the total ion chromatogram of the extract of P. orientale flower， and 14 of them were determined， including gallic acid， catechin， protocatechuic acid and so on. There were fifteen （including 6 absorbed prototype components and 9 metabolites） and nineteen transitional components （including 6 absorbed prototype components and 13 metabolites） in the plasma sample of normal rats and MIRI rats. Eight transitional components were detected in both normal rats and MIRI rats， and the VIP values of kaempferol glucuronidation metabolites， quercetin carbonylation metabolites and N-p-paprazine to the corresponding peak were higher than 1. Compared with MIRI group， the activities of SOD were increased significantly in the plasma of MIRI rats in each potential active compound group （P＜0.01）， and the leakages of LDH， CK-MB， and cTnⅠ in the plasma of MIRI rats were reduced significantly （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS The potential anti-MIRI active components in extract of P. orientale flower are N-p-paprazine， quercetin， kaempferol and kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucoside.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in post-stroke depression(PSD).Methods A total of 180 patients with stroke were selected and divided into the PSD group(n=80,HAMD≥8 points)and the non-PSD(NPSD)group(n=100,HAMD＜8 points),according to HAMD score at 3 months after stroke.The basic information,NIHSS score,serum BDNF and IL-6 were compared between the two groups.The influencing factors of PSD were analyzed by Logistic regression method.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to evaluate the predictive value of NIHSS score,serum BDNF and IL-6 for PSD.Results Compared with the NPSD grope,low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and serum BDNF level were significantly lower,NIHSS score and serum IL-6 level were significantly increased in the PSD group(P＜0.05).Results of Logistic regression analysis showed that increased NIHSS score and serum IL-6 were risk factors for PSD,and increased serum BDNF was the protective factor in patents with PSD(P＜0.05).The area under curve(AUC)of NIHSS score,serum BDNF and IL-6 and their combination prediction of PSD were 0.762,0.746,0.796 and 0.839,respectively.The sensitivity of the combined prediction was 86.0%and a specificity was 95.0%.Conclusion Compared with NPSD patients,the NIHSS score and serum IL-6 level are increased,and the serum BDNF level is decreased in patients with PSD.The combination of all three has a high predictive value for patients of PSD.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in college students during the outbreak of COVID-19, and to explore the mediating role of psychological resilience between social support and PTSD. Methods: By using direct selection method, 572 college students in Anhui and Shanghai were selected and administered with General Characteristics Questionnaire, the PTSD Checklist Civilian Version(PCL-C), Psychological Resilience Scale(PRS) and Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS). Results: Among the participants, 25.0% had moderate PTSD symptoms, 11.7% had obvious PTSD symptoms, and the positive rate of PTSD was 36.7%. The prevalence of PTSD in college students was higher in males than in females ( χ 2= 4.31， P <0.05). The junior students were higher than other students ( χ 2=16.81， P <0.01). The scores of social support, psychological resilience and PTSD were (33.79±4.83), (92.17±13.39) and (35.50±11.39), respectively. The correlations of all variables were statistically significant( r =-0.49-0.76， P <0.05); The mediation test showed that social support could not only negatively predict PTSD directly(direct effect was -0.35), but also indirectly affect PTSD through psychological resilience(indirect effect was -0.32). Conclusion More than one third of college students have PTSD symptoms, and psychological resilience plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between social support and PTSD,social support can both directly and negatively predict PTSD and indirectly affect PTSD by increasing an individual s psychological resilience.

OBJECTIVE To identify an d analyze chemical cons tituents of Pleione yunnanensis with origin of Pleione yunnanensis. METHODS UPLC-Q-Exactive-Plus-Orbitrap-MS was adopted. The determination was performed on Hyperdil GOLD column with mobile phase consisted of 0.1％ formic acid solution-0.1％ formic acid acetonitrile solution （gradient elution ）at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 40 ℃，and sample size was 2 µL. The electrospray ion source was adopted，and the scanning range was m/z 100-1 500，and the scanning mode was positive and negative ion exchange mode of full scan+ddMS2. The structure of chemical constituents were determined by using Compound Discoverer 3.1 software，comparing with mzCloud，PubChem network database and OTCML ，on the basis of reference substance and published literatures. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS A total of 42 chemical constituents were identified （positive ion mode has 24，negative ion mode has 27）， including 13 benzyl succinate glycosides （such as dactylorhin C ，coelovirin A ，militarine），4 phenol glycosides （such as adenosine ， guanosine，gastrodin），3 alkaloids（choline，betaine，berberine），and one flavonoid （nobiletin），7 aromatics（such as DL-lysine ， DL-arginine，DL-glutamine），one sugar （sucrose），3 benzenes（shancigusin H ，shancigusin H isomer ，batatasin Ⅲ）and 10 others （such as p-methoxybenzoic acid ，monomethyl dodecanedioate ，diphenylamine）. Glucose oxybenzyl and some small mole cules are easy to be lost in the cleavage of benzyl succinate glycosides；glycosyl is easy to be lost in the cleavage of phenol glycosides；the cleavage of alkaloids mainly manifest as the cleavage and loss of small molecular substituents ；demethyla- tion reaction is occurred in most flavonoids.

Radiotherapy is one of the most commonly used and effective method to treat malignant tumors in clinical practice. However, there are still some limitations including high radiotherapy doses, harmful side effects on normal tissues, and radiation resistance of tumor cells. Therefore, seeking safe and effective radiotherapy sensitizers to improve radiation sensitivity of tumor cells has been focused for a long time. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs), as a kind of epigenetic modifiers, can regulate the sensitivity of tumor cells to ionizing radiation and ultraviolet radiation in addition to the inherent anticancer characteristics. This article reviewed the molecular mechanisms of HDACIs in enhancing radiation sensitivity and by selectively killing tumor cells.

Objective:To explore the tricuspid annular plane systolic excusion(TAPSE) in children with left-to-right shunt after congenital heart disease surgery and to understand the early systolic function of right heart in thesepatient.Methods:From June 2018 to December 2018, a prospective study was conducted in 20 infants after repair of left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease, including 10 males(50%) and 10 females(50%) , aged from 1 to 12 months, with a median of 4.5(2.0, 6.8) months, a body mass of 3.0-9.0 kg with median of 6.0(3.7, 7.7) kg.On the first postoperative day, blood was taken from central venous for N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT pro-BNP) test, TAPSE and left ventricular ejective fraction(LVEF) was measured by echocardiography.The effects of aortic occlusion time, cardiopulmonary bypass time, preoperative pneumonia and preoperative heart failure on TAPSE were compared. The relationship between TAPSE and heart rate, systolic pressure, central venous pressure, vasoactive drug score, endotracheal intubation time, detention time in intensive care unit, NT pro-BNP and LVEF after operation was analysed.Results:The aortic cross-clamping time was 15-87 minutes, with median 31(28, 50) minutes. The cardiopulmonary bypass time was 35-117 minutes, with an average of(68±22)minutes. The time of tracheal intubation was 4-117 hours, with an average of(50±35) hours. The stay time in CICU was 1-14 days, with a median of 5(2, 7) days.The LVEF was 0.18-0.66, with median 0.53(0.42, 0.57). The TAPSE was 2.0-10.0 mm, with an average of(5.2±2.0) mm. On the first day after operation, NT pro-BNP was 1 548-35 000 pg/ml, with an average of(9 446±8 130) pg/ml.TAPSE was negatively correlated with postoperative intubation time( r=-0.576, P= 0.007) and detention time in ICU( r=-0.765, P=0.000), and positively correlated with postoperative LVEF( r=0.461, P=0.041)( P<0.05). TAPSE was negatively correlated with heart rate( r=-0.303, P=0.193), central venous pressure( r=-0.425, P=0.062), vasoactive drug score( r=-0.418, P=0.067) and NT Pro BNP( r=-0.348, P=0.132), and positively correlated with systolic pressure( r=0.146, P=0.54), but there was no statistical significance in each item.Compared with patients with TAPSE≥5mm, the detention time and tracheal intubation time were longer than those TAPSE<5 mm, the central venous pressure and NT-pro BNP was higher than those TAPSE<5 mm( P<0.05), the difference was statistically significant, other indicators had no significant difference. Conclusion:It is simple and feasible to measure TAPSE by echocardiography in children after operation with left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease.TAPSE decreased postoperatively suggested that the function of right ventricle decreased at the early stage after surgery, and with left ventricle systolic function decreased, which eventually led to the increase of NT pro-BNP, the need for higher doses of vasoactive drug support, longer tracheal intubation time and the stay time in CICU.Attention should be paid to the right heart function of children after congenital heart surgery.

The radiotherapy modulators used in clinic have disadvantages of high toxicity and low selectivity. For the first time, we used the

Objective To investigate the clinical features and gene diagnostic bases of childhood L-2 -hydroxyglutaric aciduria (L-2-HGA). Methods The clinical data involving manifestations,laboratory examinations of 4 children with L-2-HGA admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from April 2015 to March 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Each patient had a follow-up visit ranging from 3 months to 3 years and 2 months after initial examination. Results The 4 patients,of whom 2 were siblings,consisted of 1 male and 3 females,whose age of onset ranged from 8 months old to 3 years old. All of them presented with seizures as their initial symptom. The developmental milestones were all normal before onset,while 3 cases gradually became mentally stagnant. Other symptoms included unsteady gait in 3 cases,slight hand trembling when holding items in 2 cases,and pyramidal impairment in 2 cases. Bilateral symmetric abnormalities in subcortical white matter,basal ganglia and dentate nucleus were detected by cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)in all patients,and cerebral and cerebellar atrophy was ob-served in 1 case. Organic acid analysis by gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry (GC/ MS)demonstrated notable ele-vation of urinary 2-hydroxyglutaric acid in 3 cases. Pathogenic mutations on L2HGDH gene were detected by target -capture high-throughput sequencing in all 4 patients. The compound heterozygous mutations of c. 845G > A (p. Arg282Gln)and c. 800_801delCA (p. Ser267Ter)were identified in case 1,the homozygous missense mutation of c. 584A > G (p. Tyr195Cys ) in case 2 and case 3,and the homozygous frameshift mutation of c. 407delA (p. Lys136SerfsTer3)in case 4. The variants of c. 800_801delCA and c. 407delA were novel mutations firstly reported in this study. Sanger sequencing verified that parents of the 4 cases were all heterozygous carriers. The follow-up study in 2 cases who were put on high dosage of vitamin B2 and L-carnitine had shown a relatively favorable outcome of mild remission in ataxia and absence of mental degradation and further seizures,while the other 2 cases without specific therapy remained relatively stable. Conclusions The main clinical manifestations of L-2-HGA are mental retarda-tion,seizures and ataxia. Bilateral symmetric abnormalities in subcortical white matter,basal ganglia and dentate nucleus are specific neuroimaging findings. Significant elevation of urinary 2-hydroxyglutaric acid is the basic feature of the disease,while gene assessment should be the gold standard in the diagnosis of L-2-HGA. Treatment with high dosage of vitamin B2 and L-carnitine might be effective to partial patients.

Objective To design and synthesize a novel paclitaxel loaded nanoparticle with reactive oxygen species (ROS) response, and characterize its structure, and investigate its stability, in vitro drug responsive release, cellular uptake and in vitro antitumor activity. Methods The PEG-2S-PTX monomer was synthesized by coupling the hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) with hydrophobic paclitaxel (PTX) via a thioether chain (2S), and the prodrug nanoparticles (PEG-2S-PTX NPs) were prepared by self-assembly. Meanwhile, using succinic anhydride (SA) as the linking group to synthesize the PEG-SA-PTX monomer and prepare the other prodrug nanoparticles (PEG-SA-PTX NPs) as control. The structures of PEG-2S-PTX and PEG-SA-PTX monomer were confirmed by 1H-NMR. The diameter and stability of the nanoparticles were detected by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The PTX release kinetics under oxidizing condition was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. And the cellular uptake efficiency of nanoparticles by MCF-7 cells was observed by fluorescence microscope. The in vitro antitumor effects of nanoparticles were compared by MTT assay. Results PEG-2S-PTX and PEG-SA-PTX could both be self-assemble into nanoparticles with the diameter of (92.15±12.42) nm and (113.20±12.16) nm. PEG-2S-PTX NPs could rapidly release PTX under oxidative condition while PEG-SA-PTX NPs only showed weak responsiveness. PEG-2S-PTX NPs could be more rapidly taken up by MCF-7 cells compared with PEG-SA-PTX NPs. They both showed concentration dependent anti-tumor effects, but the cytotoxicity of PEG-2S-PTX NPs was stronger than that of PEG-SA-PTX NPs in the concentrations of 0.05, 0.1, 5, 10, 50 and 100 mg/L (P<0.05). Conclusion As paclitaxel prodrug nanoparticles with ROS responsive ability, PEG-2S-PTX NPs can rapidly release PTX in response to ROS in tumor cells, and exhibit great anti-tumor activity in vitro.
