Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of long chain non-coding RNA(ln-cRNA)SNHG16 regulating PAR1 on the proliferation,migration and invasion of lung cancer.Methods From March 2020 to August 2021,lung cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of 35 patients with lung cancer were col-lected,and lung cancer cell lines(HCC827,A549,SK-LU-1,A427)and normal lung cell lines(MRC5)were simultaneously cultured.The overexpression model of PAR1(pcDNA-PAR1)was constructed by using the expression vector pcDNA3.1.A549 cells were divided into four groups after transfection:si-SNHG16,si-PAR1,si-SNHG16+pcDNA-PAR1 and control(transfection with si-NC).The expression levels of lncRNA SNHG16 and PAR1 in lung cancer cell lines(HCC827,A549,SK-LU-1,A427),lung cancer tissues and adja-cent tissues were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reac-tion(qRT-PCR),and the transfection efficiency of each group was verified.MTT assay and clonal formation were used to determine the proliferation of cells in each group,flow cytometry was used to detect the apopto-sis of cells in each group,cell scratch and Transwell test were used to detect the migration and invasion ability of cells in each group,and Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of PAR1.Results The ex-pression level of lncRNA SNHG16 in lung cancer tissue was higher than that in adjacent tissues(P＜0.05).The expression level of lncRNA SNHG16 in lung cancer cell lines(HCC827,A549,SK-LU-1,A427)was higher than that in normal lung cell lines(MRC5),with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The results of qRT-PCR showed that the expression level of lncRNA SNHG16 gene was(21.02±0.04)％of the control af-ter transfection of si-SNHG16,the expression level of PAR1 gene was(19.06±0.02)％of the control after transfection of si-PAR1,and the expression level of PAR1 gene was 2.70±0.00 folds of the control after transfection of pcDNA-PAR 1,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The results of Western blot showed that the expression level of transfected in each PAR1 protein was different from that of the con-trol(P＜0.05).Compared with the control,the activity of cells transfected with si-SNHG16 was lower,the a-bility of clone formation,cell migration and invasion was obviously inhibited,and the apoptosis rate was higher(P＜0.05),while pcDNA-PAR1 could weaken the influence of transfected si-SNHG16 on cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion(P＜0.05).lncRNA SNHG16 was positively correlated with the expression level of PAR1(r=0.61).Conclusion lncRNA SNHG16 can regulate the occurrence and development of lung cancer by targeting PAR1.

Aim To investigate the shared transcriptional characteristics of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)and atherosclerosis(As)using bioinformatics techniques.The goal is to identify potential mechanisms and key targets of As that are linked to NAFLD through gene crosstalk analysis of both diseases.Additionally,the study will validate the expression levels of these key targets in animal tissues and human serum samples.Methods The gene ex-pression profiles of NAFLD(dataset GSE89632)and As(dataset GSE43292)were obtained from GEO database.Differ-ential gene analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis were conducted to identify common genes between the two diseases.These shared genes were further analyzed using the String database for protein interaction analysis and R software.Core genes were identified through calculations in Cytoscape software,validation with external datasets(GSE100927),and machine learning techniques(LASSO regression).Finally,key core genes were determined by crea-ting nonalcoholic fatty liver and As mouse models on a high-fat diet and collecting peripheral serum samples from patients with NAFLD and coronary heart disease(CHD).Results Seventy-five shared genes were identified between the two diseases,with major enrichment pathways including cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction,IL-17 signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerosis,and NF-κB signaling pathway.Through integration of multiple bioinformatics methods,two core genes(MMP-9 and CCL3)were identified.Subsequent animal experiments demonstrated a significant increase in MMP-9 and CCL3 levels in the liver and aortic sinus of mice fed with high-fat diet,MMP-9 and CCL3 levels in the liver tissue of high-fat diet-fed mice were 2.43 times(P＜0.001)and 1.35 times(P＜0.01)higher than the control group,in the aortic sinus tissue,MMP-9 and CCL3 levels were 2.10 times(P＜0.001)and 1.58 times(P＜0.01)higher.Human serum sample verification further supported these findings,showing MMP-9 and CCL3 levels in patients with both NAFLD and CHD to be 1.21 times(P＜0.01)and 1.29 times(P＜0.01)higher than in patients with CHD alone.Conclusion This study identified MMP-9 and CCL3 may play key roles in NAFLD-related As,providing potential targets for the study of NAFLD-related As.

This work aimed to investigate the differences of pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of four alkaloids in Ermiao Pills and Sanmiao Pills in normal and arthritic model rats. The rat model of arthritis was established by injecting Freund's complete adjuvant, and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS) in the positive ion multiple reaction monitoring(MRM) mode was used for the determination of four alkaloids in plasma and tissues of normal and arthritic rats after administration of Ermiao Pills and Sanmiao Pills, respectively. The differences in pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of the four active components were compared, and the effect of Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix on the major components of Sanmiao Pills was explored. This study established an UPLC-MS/MS for simultaneous determination of four alkaloids, and the specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and stability of this method all met the requirements. Pharmacokinetics study found that as compared with normal rats, the AUC and C_(max) of phellodendrine, magnoflorine, berberine and palmatine in model rats were significantly decreased after administration of Ermiao Pills, the clearance rate CL/F was significantly increased, and the distribution and tissue/plasma concentration ratio of the four alkaloids in the liver, kidney, and joint were significantly reduced. Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix increased the AUC of phellodendrine, berberine, and palmatine, reduced the clearance rate, and significantly increased the distribution of the four alkaloids in the liver, kidney, and joints in arthritic rats. However, it had no significant effect on the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of the four alkaloids in normal rats. These results suggest that Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix may play a guiding role in meridian through increasing the tissue distribution of effective components in Sanmiao Pills under arthritis states.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection in the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in a real-world setting.Methods:This was a real-world ambispective cohort study (MOMENT study) (Chinese clinical trial registry number: ChiCTR2200062067). Clinical data were collected from 198 patients who received mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy or combination therapy at 37 hospitals from January 2022 to January 2023, including 166 patients in the retrospective cohort and 32 patients in the prospective cohort; 10 patients in the treatment-na?ve group and 188 patients in the relapsed/refractory group. Clinical characteristics, efficacy and adverse events were summarized, and the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed.Results:All 198 patients were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection for a median of 3 cycles (range 1-7 cycles); 28 cases were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy, and 170 cases were treated with the combination regimen. Among 188 relapsed/refractory patients, 45 cases (23.9%) were in complete remission (CR), 82 cases (43.6%) were in partial remission (PR), and 28 cases (14.9%) were in disease stabilization (SD), and 33 cases (17.6%) were in disease progression (PD), with an objective remission rate (ORR) of 67.6% (127/188). Among 10 treatment-na?ve patients, 4 cases (40.0%) were in CR, 5 cases (50.0%) were in PR, and 1 case (10.0%) was in PD, with an ORR of 90.0% (9/10). The median follow-up time was 2.9 months (95% CI 2.4-3.7 months), and the median PFS and OS of patients in relapsed/refractory and treatment-na?ve groups were not reached. In relapsed/refractory patients, the difference in ORR between patients with different number of treatment lines of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection [ORR of the second-line, the third-line and &ge;the forth-line treatment was 74.4% (67/90), 73.9% (34/46) and 50.0% (26/52)] was statistically significant ( P = 0.008). Of the 198 PTCL patients, 182 cases (91.9%) experienced at least 1 time of treatment-related adverse events, and the incidence rate of &ge;grade 3 adverse events was 66.7% (132/198), which was mainly characterized by hematologic adverse events. The &ge; grade 3 hematologic adverse events mainly included decreased lymphocyte count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased white blood cell count, and anemia; non-hematologic adverse events were mostly grade 1-2, mainly including pigmentation disorders and upper respiratory tract infection. Conclusions:The use of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection-containing regimen in the treatment of PTCL has definite efficacy and is well tolerated, and it is a new therapeutic option for PTCL patients.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the expression of centromere protein U (CENPU) in colorectal cancer and its predictive value for long-term prognosis of the patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 102 patients with colorectal cancer undergoing radical resection in our hospital between January, 2005 and December, 2011. The expression level of CENPU in colorectal cancer tissue was detected immunohistochemically, and its association with clinicopathological characteristics of the patients were analyzed. The patients were divided into low expression group (n=51) and high expression group (n=51) based on the median CENPU expression level for analysis the value of CENPU for predicting long-term prognosis of the patients after radical resection of the tumors. In the in vitro study, we constructed colorectal cancer cell lines with CENPU interference and CENPU overexpression by lentiviral transfection and assessed the changes in the proliferation, migration and invasion of the cells using CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay. RESULTS: The protein expression level of CENPU was significantly higher in colorectal cancer tissues than in the adjacent tissues (P < 0.05) and was positively correlated with the expressions levels of Ki67 (r=0.569, P < 0.05) and VEGF-C (r=0.629, P < 0.05). CENPU expression level in colorectal cancer tissue was closely related with tumor progression and clinicopathological stage of the tumor (P < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the patients with high CENPU expression had significantly decreased postoperative overall survival (χ²=11.155, P < 0.05); Cox multivariate regression analysis suggested that CENPU expression level was an independent risk factor affecting the overall survival of the patients after radical resection (HR=1.848, P < 0.05). The results of cell experiments demonstrated that high CENPU expression significantly promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of the tumor cells. CONCLUSION CENPU is highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues in closely correlation with tumor progression and may serve as a potential biomarker for evaluating the long-term prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.

Urethral plate (UP)-preserving urethroplasty is simple and has few complications, but it may affect the development of penis in the long term and lead to recurrent chordee. In this study, we used obliquely cut UP to repair hypospadias with mild chordee after degloving (15°-30°) and compared the results with onlay urethroplasty to explore its rationality and feasibility. Between April 2018 and October 2020, 108 hypospadias patients underwent onlay urethroplasty or modified onlay urethroplasty. Clinical data were prospectively collected, and medium-term outcomes were assessed at follow-up. The complications were compared between the two groups. Forty-four patients underwent the modified onlay procedure (Group I), with follow-up time (mean ± standard deviation [s.d.]) of 23.2 ± 4.5 (range: 17-31) months. Sixty-four patients underwent a standard onlay procedure (Group II), with follow-up time (mean ± s.d.) of 39.7 ± 3.9 (range: 32-46) months. There was no difference in age at surgery. The urethral defect length and operative time were longer in Group I. Six cases of fistula and one case each of stricture and diverticulum were reported in Group I. In Group II, 11 cases of fistula and one case each of stricture and diverticulum were reported. The complication rates were 18.2% and 20.3% in Group I and Group II, respectively (P > 0.05). These medium-term follow-up results demonstrate that the modified onlay procedure (oblique cut UP urethroplasty) is a safe and feasible technique for hypospadias with mild chordee after degloving. Compared with standard onlay urethroplasty, this modified procedure is conducive to the complete removal of scar tissue underlying the UP without increasing the risk of surgical complications.

Objective:To observe the effect of edaravone dexborneol on anxiety and depression after stroke in rats, and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods:Totally 120 healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (sham), ischemia-reperfusion group (MCAO), edaravone group (Eda) and edaravone dexborneol group (ED) with 30 in each group.The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established by thread occlusion.Rats in ED group and Eda group were intraperitoneally injected with edaravone(8 mg·kg -1·d -1) and edaravone dexborneol(edaravone: 8 mg·kg -1·d -1, dexborneol: 2 mg·kg -1·d -1) respectively.And rats in the other two groups were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of normal saline.Some rats were killed after continuous administration for 3 days to detect molecular indexes, and the remaining rats were tested for behavior after continuous administration for 14 days.The levels of neclear factor κB(NF-κB)、phosphorylated NF-κB(p-NF-κB)、tumor necrosis α(TNF-α)、interleukin 1β(IL-1β) were detected by Western blot.The mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, cluster of differentiation 86(CD86), cluster of differentiation 206(CD206), inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) were detected by RT-qPCR.M1 type microglia labeled with CD68, microglia labeled with ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1(Iba1) and neurons labeled with microtubule-associated protein 2(MAP2) were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The cerebral infarction volume was measured by TTC staining.Depression and anxiety behavior after stroke in rats was observed by the open field test and elevated plus maze test.SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data.One-way ANOVA was used for multiple group comparison, and LSD-t test was used for pairwise comparison. Results:(1) The behavioral results showed that 14 days after ischemia-reperfusion, the number of entering into the open arm, the time spent in the open arm, and the time spent in the central area of the open field in the MCAO group were lower than those in the sham group ( t=20.77, 6.02, 14.63, all P<0.05). The number of entering into the open arm, the time spent in the open arm, and the time spent in the central area of the field in the ED group ( (16.22±0.49) times, (69.11±17.08) s, (3.80±0.37) s) were higher than those in the MCAO group ( (8.14±0.60) times, (41.18±9.81) s, (0.33±0.39) s) ( t=4.69, 0.38, 2.27, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (11.11±0.26) times, (45.26±17.16) s, (1.14±0.19) s) ( t=8.63, 2.50, 7.86, all P<0.05). (2) Western blot results showed that 3 days after ischemia-reperfusion, p-NF-κB/NF-κB, TNF-α, and IL-1β levels in the MCAO group were higher than those in the sham group ( t=15.35, 12.35, 7.23, all P<0.05). The levels of p-NF-κB/NF-κB (0.49±0.02), TNF-α (0.73±0.03), IL-1β (0.61±0.01) of ischemic penumbra cortex in ED group were significantly lower than those of the MCAO group ( (1.14±0.05), (1.13±0.07), (1.34±0.14)) ( t=14.58, 7.86, 5.65, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (0.93±0.03), (0.89±0.02), (1.04±0.36) ) ( t=9.82, 3.07, 3.30, all P<0.05). (3) RT-qPCR results showed that the level of TNF-α mRNA (1.98±0.18), IL-1β mRNA (2.00±0.35), CD86 mRNA (1.56±0.20) and iNOS mRNA (2.01±0.12) in the peri-infarct cortex of ED group were lower than those in the MCAO group ( (5.12±0.24), ( 8.15±0.22), (6.03±0.13), (7.20±0.09) ) ( t=7.86, 16.88, 16.55, 37.25, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (2.85±0.07), (5.43±0.26), (2.67±0.27), (3.58±0.11) ) ( t=3.71, 9.41, 4.13, 11.30, all P<0.05). The level of CD206 mRNA in the peri-infarct cortex of the ED group (3.98±0.25) was higher than that in the MCAO group (2.00±0.11) ( t=7.08, P<0.05) and Eda group (3.17±0.09) ( t=3.25, P<0.05). (4) The results of immunofluorescence staining showed that the ratio of polarized M1 microglia in the peri-infarct cortex and striatum in the ED group ((20.36±9.23)%, (18.26±5.98)%)were lower than those in the MCAO group ( (83.69±12.79)%, (61.25±33.26)%) ( t=5.23, 3.02, both P<0.05) and Eda group((42.16±13.13)%, (40.23±14.22)%)( t=3.12, 2.08, both P<0.05). In addition, the number of neurons marked with MAP2 of peri-infarct cortex in the MCAO group was lower than that in the sham group( t=8.02, P<0.05), and the number of neurons marded with MAP2 of peri-infarct cortex in the ED group ((53.07±17.90) /scope) was higher than that in the MCAO group ( (26.27±9.95) /scope) ( t=6.89, P<0.05) and Eda group ( (38.69±12.03)/scope) ( t=5.26, P<0.05). (5) The results of TTC staining showed that the cerebral infarction volume in ED group ( (10.31±1.03)%) was lower than that in the MCAO group ( (34.71±1.74)%) ( t=15.31, P<0.05) and Eda group ( (26.05±1.00)%) ( t=9.88, P<0.05). Conclusion:Edaravone dexborneol can alleviate anxiety and depression in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, which may be related to the inhibition of M1 microglial polarization, the down-regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway and the enhancement of neuronal structural stability.
