Liver fibrosis is the healing reaction of chronic liver injury caused by various factors such as viral infection， alcohol， and chemical substances and is a key link in the progression of chronic liver diseases to liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. Liver macrophages are considered important mediators of liver injury and repair， and the polarization trend of macrophages has a bidirectional regulatory effect on liver fibrosis. This article reviews the role of different phenotypes of liver macrophages in the development and progression of liver fibrosis， in order to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of fibrosis.

Aim To investigate the effect of quercetin on the aging model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells established under microgravity. Methods Using 3D gyroscope, a aging model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was constructed, and after receiving quercetin and microgravity treatment, the anti-aging effect of the quercetin was evaluated by detecting related proteins and oxidation indexes. Results Compared to the control group, the expressions of age-related proteins p21, pi6, p53 and RB in the microgravity group significantly increased, while the expressions of cyclin D1 and lamin B1 significantly decreased, with statistical significance (P<0.05). In the microgravity group, mitochondrial membrane potential significantly decreased (P<0.05), ROS accumulation significantly increased (P <0.05), SOD content significantly decreased and MDA content significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared to the microgravity group, the expressions of age-related proteins p21, pi6, p53 and RB in the quercetin group significantly decreased, while the expressions of cyclin D1 and lamin B1 significantly increased, with statistical significance (P<0.05).

Conclusions Quercetin can resist oxidation, protect mitochondrial function and normal cell cycle, thus delaying the aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by microgravity.

It has become an industry consensus that self-assembled nanoparticles (SAN) are formed by molecular recognition of chemical components in traditional Chinese medicine during the decoction process. The insoluble components in the decoction are mostly in the form of nanoparticles, which can improve the problem of poor water solubility. However, the transfer rate of these insoluble components in the decoction is still very low, which limits the efficacy of the drug. This study aimed to refine the traditional decoction self-assembly phenomenon. The self-assembled nanoparticles were constructed by micro-precipitation method (MP-SAN), and characterized by particle size, zeta potential, stability index and morphology. The formation of MP-SAN and alterations in related physicochemical properties were evaluated using modern spectroscopic and thermal analysis techniques. The quality value transmitting pattern of lignan components within the MP-SAN was assessed via high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The MP-SAN showed sphere-like structure with uniform morphology, particle size of (245.3 ± 3.2) nm, polydispersity index (PDI) of (0.13 ± 0.03), zeta potential of (-48.9 ± 5.9) mV and stability index (SI) of (86.05% ± 2.27%). Comprehensive analyses using ultraviolet visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and other techniques confirmed molecular recognition between the decoction and ethanol extraction, leading to electron rearrangement under the influence of non-covalent bonding. This resulted in the formation of nanoparticles possessing superior thermal stability. As determined by HPLC, the encapsulation rates of the index components in the MP-SAN were all greater than 75% (dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol: 77.00%; herpetolide A: 78.57%; herpetrione: 94.53%), and the transfer rates were all higher than 65% (dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol: 96.01%; herpetolide A: 67.86%; herpetrione: 65.55%), which were 1.34, 1.38 and 4.81 times compared with those of the traditional decoction. In summary, this study successfully constructed the MP-SAN based on micro-precipitation method to achieve high transfer rate and high encapsulation rate of insoluble components in docoction, which provides a pharmaceutics idea for the efficient utilization of pharmacodynamic substance basis of traditional Chinese medicine.

Based on the literature study,the thoughts and possible therapeutic mechanism in treating male infertility from the perspective of spleen and kidney by regulating intestinal flora were explored.Disturbance of intestinal flora is one of the important factors leading to the development of male infertility,and the spleen and kidney have certain similarities to intestinal flora in the physiological function and pathological changes.Moreover,tonifying the kidney and strengthening the spleen can regulate the intestinal flora by fostering the growth of beneficial bacteria,inhibiting the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria,and protecting the barrier of the intestinal mucosa.Therefore,the possible therapeutic mechanisms in treating male infertility with the prescriptions for tonifying the kidney and strengthening the spleen to regulate intestinal flora are as follows:inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors to reduce the inflammatory reaction of testicular tissues;improving the antioxidant capacity to alleviate the damage of spermatozoa caused by oxidative stress,and improving the bad mood to alleviate the impact of psychological stress on the reproductive system.The exploration of the thoughts for treating male infertility from the perspective of spleen and kidney by regulating intestinal flora may provide a new entry point for modern Chinese medicine clinical treatment of male infertility.

The growth of three plague phages from Qinghai Plateau in two Yersinia pestis strains(plague vaccine strains EV76 and 614F)and four non-Yersinia pestis strains(Yersinia pseudotuberculosis PTB3,PTB5,Escherichia coli V517,and Yersinia enterocolitica 52302-2)were detected through a micromethod based on the OmniLogTM microbial identification system and by the drop method,to provide a scientific basis for future ecological studies and classification based on the host range.For plague vaccine strains EV76 and 614F,successful phage infection and subsequent phage growth were observed in the host bacte-rium.Diminished bacterial growth and respiration and a concomitant decrease in color were observed with the OmniLogTM mi-crobial identification system at 33 ℃ for 48 h.Yersinia pseudotuberculosis PTB5 was sensitive to Yersinia pestis phage 476,but Yersinia pseudotuberculosis PST5 was insensitive to phage 087 and 072204.Three strains of non-Yersinia pestis(Yersinia pseudotuberculosis PTB3,Escherichia coli V517,and Yersinia enterocolitica 52302-2)were insensitive to Yersinia pestis pha-ges 087,072204,and 476 showed similar growth curves.The growth of phages 476 and 087,as determined with the drop method,in two Yersinia pestis strains(plague vaccine strains EV76 and 614F)and four non-Yersinia pestis strains(Yersinia pseudotuberculosis PTB3,Escherichia coli V517,and Yersin-ia enterocolitica 52302-2)showed the same results at 37 ℃,on the basis of comparisons with the OmniLogTM microbial i-dentification system;in contrast,phages 072204 did not show plaques on solid medium at 37 ℃ with plague vaccine strains EV76 and 614F.Determination based on the OmniLogTM detection system can be used as an alternative to the traditional determination of the host range,thus providing favorable application val-ue for determining the interaction between the phage and host bacteria.

Objective To evaluate the anesthetic and postoperative analgesic effects of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block(ESPB)with dexmedetomidine combined with ropivacaine in percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy(PELD).Method Patients underwent endoscopic discectomy were randomly divided into local infiltrative anesthesia group(group C),ropivacaine group(group R)and dexmedetomidine combined with ropivacaine group(group DR).Group C received local infiltration anesthesia with 0.375％ropivacaine 20 mL;in group R,the anesthesiologist used 0.375％ropivacaine 20 mL to perform bilateral ESPB.In DR group,0.375％ropivacaine+1 μg·kg-1 dexmedetomidine mixed solution 20 mL was used for bilateral ESPB.The changes of mean arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate(HR)at 3 min before and after insertion of the channel were observed.The visual analogue scale(VAS)were recorded before operation(T0),at the time of needle positioning(T1),working channel placement(T2),annulus fibrosus operation(T3),at the end of operation(T4),at 4 h(T5),8 h(T6),12 h(T7)and 24 h(T8)after operation were observed.The dosage of intravenous analgesics,vasoactive drugs,and the occurrence of intraoperative adverse drug reactions were observed.Results There were 30 patients in group C,29 patients in group R and 30 patients in group DR.At 3 min after insertion into the channel,HR of group C,group R and group DR were(83.23±5.61),(78.18±4.71)and(77.31±5.13)beat·min-1;MAP were(85.97±3.89),(76.13±4.70)and(74.21±3.12)mmHg;with statistically significant difference(all P＜0.05).The VAS of group C,group R and group DR at T2were(5.80±0.85),(2.38±0.68)and(1.73±0.95)points;at T3 were(4.43±0.57),(2.55±0.57)and(1.63±0.56)points;at T7 were(4.66±0.66),(3.55±0.63)and(3.03±0.66)points;at T8 were(5.53±0.68),(4.07±0.46)and(3.23±0.57)points,all with significant difference(all P＜0.05).The number of additional cases of sufentanil in group C was 17 cases,and in group R was 5 cases,and in group DR was 3 cases,the number of additional cases of sufentanil in group R and DR was significantly less than that in group C(all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions among the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion ESPB with dexmedetomidine combined with ropivacaine can significantly reduce intraoperative and postoperative pain,reduce intraoperative opioid use,and has no obvious adverse reactions in patients undergoing PELD.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effect of miRNA-933 on the apoptosis and proliferation of human hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 and its mechanism.Methods Firstly,with human liver tissue for research,gene microarray technology was used to detect the differentially expressed genes in liver tissue between liver cirrhosis/chronic hepatitis B tissue and normal liver tissue,among which the significantly differentially expressed miRNAs were identified,and thus miRNA-933 was determined as the research object.Then,with the human hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 for research,miRNA-933 mimic and inhibitor(miRNA-933 siRNA)were used to construct the LX-2 models of overexpression and knockdown,and the cells transfected with mimic-NC(overexpression)or siRNA-NC(knockdown)were established as the negative control group.Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot were used to measure the expression levels of miRNA-933 and activation biomarkers;techniques such as cell proliferation assay and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect and mechanism of miRNA-933 on cell apoptosis,proliferation,and activation.The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups;a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups,and Bonferroni correction was also performed.Results A total of 18 significantly differentially expressed miRNAs were obtained based on the results of gene microarray,among which miRNA-933 was significantly downregulated(P<0.05).After LX-2 cells were transfected with miRNA-933 mimic or siRNA,compared with the negative control group,miRNA-933 siRNA significantly downregulated the expression of miRNA-933(P=0.000 7),while miRNA-933 mimic significantly upregulated the expression of miRNA-933(P=0.000 3).Western blot and quantitative real-time PCR showed that miRNA-933 siRNA significantly upregulated the expression of collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA(P<0.001),while miRNA-933 mimic significantly inhibited the expression of collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA(P<0.05).Flow cytometry showed that compared with the negative control group,miRNA-933 siRNA significantly downregulated the apoptosis rate of LX-2 cells(P=0.031 9),and miRNA-933 mimic significantly upregulated the apoptosis rate of LX-2 cells(P=0.005 5).Western blot showed that compared with the negative control group,miRNA-933 siRNA could inhibit the expression of Caspase-3(P=0.006 7)and poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1(PARP-1)(P=0.003 0)and upregulate the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2)in LX-2 cells(P=0.002 0),while miRNA-933 mimic could significantly upregulate the expression of Caspase-3(P=0.011 8)and PARP-1(P=0.049 5)and downregulated the expression of Bcl-2(P=0.002 1).Cell proliferation assay showed that compared with the negative control group,miRNA-933 siRNA could promote the proliferation of LX-2 cells(P=0.011 5),while on the contrary,miRNA-933 mimic could inhibit the proliferation of LX-2 cells(P=0.001 2).Western blot and quantitative real-time PCR showed that miRNA-933 siRNA significantly inhibited the expression of Kruppel-like factor 6(KLF6)and downregulated the expression of activating transcription factor 4(ATF4),activating transcription factor 3(ATF3),and C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP),while miRNA-933 mimic promoted the expression of the above proteins(all P<0.05).Conclusion This study shows that miRNA-933 may promote cell apoptosis and inhibit cell activation and proliferation by promoting the activation of the KLF6/ATF4/ATF3/CHOP/Bcl-2 signal axis in LX-2 cells.
