Objective : To investigate the brain microvascular tissue block culture method for extracting primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells and identify its effect. Methods : Brain tissue from 4-week-old Sprague Dawley rats was screened, pre-digested and solidified to obtain brain microvascular segments. These segments were subsequently placed in a CO2incubator for primary culture. The target cells were identified by cell morphology and immunocytochemical staining for factor Ⅷ-related antigen. Results : After a 48-hour culture periodin vitro, the short spindle cells crawled out from around the brain microvascular segments. After 72 hours, island-like cell culsters formed. After 96 hours the clusters fused and the cells formed a typical monolayer, cobble stone-like, and mosaic arrangement. Factor Ⅷ-related antigen immunocytochemical staining showed that the cytoplasm of the cells appeared brown-red, indicating positive expression; DAB stained the nucleus, showing blue-dark. Conclusion The brain microvascular tissue block culture method can isolate and culture primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Objective To explore the effect of digital delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia(dCBT-I)based on internet technology on anxiety and sleep quality in patients with generalized anxiety disorder(GAD).Methods A total of 82 GAD patients treated in Huzhou Third Municipal Hospital from April to October 2023 were selected as study objects,and were divided into intervention group and control group according to random number table method,with 41 cases in each group.The intervention group received dCBT-I based on internet technology,and the control group received offline cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia.The anxiety and sleep quality of two groups were compared.Results After the intervention,the scores of Hamilton anxiety scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index in intervention group were significantly lower than those in control group,and the score of dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes about sleep was significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion dCBT-I based on internet technology can effectively relieve the anxiety of GAD patients and improve the quality of sleep.

Objective:To explore genes related to costimulatory molecule related to the prognosis of bladder cancer,and to construct and evaluate prognosis model based on costimulatory molecule-based signature(CMS).Methods:Gene expression matrix and clinical information of bladder cancer patients were downloaded from TCGA database and GEO database(GSE31684),and costimulatory molecule-related genes were retrieved from the literature.The univariate and multivariate Cox analysis were used to screened prognostic-related genes and constructed prognostic model.Forecast accuracy of model was verified in TCGA training group,TCGA validation data group and GEO group by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC).Considering risk score and clinical characteristics,we constructed a nomogram and evaluated its performance by consistency analysis and ROC.CIBERSORT algorithm was used to analyze immune cell composition of tumor microenvironment infiltration,and gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)was performed to explore the potential mechanism.Results:Four prognostic-related CMSs were found:TNFRSF14,CD276,ICOS and TMIGD2,of which three were included in the risk score construction.Multivariate Cox regression results showed that the risk score based on CMS was an independent prognostic factor for bladder cancer patients.Consistency analysis and ROC results showed that the nomogram had ideal prognosis prediction accuracy.Immune infiltration analysis showed that the high risk group was likely to be in immunosuppressive state.GSEA results suggested that genes in high risk group were enriched in extracel-lular matrix(ECM)receptors interaction,cell cycle and other pathways.Conclusion:TNFRSF14,CD276 and ICOS may be potential prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer patients.CMS-based risk score and nomogram could contribute to early prognosis and choice of personalized treatment.

Objective To culture and expand primary rat aortic vascular stem cells in vitro and evaluate their characteristics as mesenchymal stem cells.Methods The thoracic and abdominal aortas isolated from 2-to 3-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were cut into vascular segments 2.0 mm in length and cultured in culture flasks till adhesion and solidification of the outer membranes.The primary cells were further cultured to 80%-90%confluence before passaging.The morphology and growth characteristics of the cells were observed under a microscope,and the expressions of surface marker CD molecules on the cells was analyzed using flow cytometry.Adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation assays were performed to assess the capacity of the cells for multilineage differentiation.Results After 3 days of culture,a small number of spindle,star-shaped or polygonal cells migrated out from the peripheral of the vascular segments.At 5-6 days,island-like cell clusters occurred and the cells began to proliferate rapidly.The cell clusters expanded radially and showed signs of cell cloning.At 7-8 days,the cells fused into sheets and displayed a vortex-like distribution.The cells in the third passage presented with a uniform morphology,showing a typical fibroblast-like arrangement.Flow cytometry showed that the cells expressed predominantly CD44(80.3%),CD73(62.2%)and CD90(46.8%)with low expressions of CD34(1.1%),CD45(0.2%)and CD11b/c(0.2%).Adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation experiments demonstrated that the cells were capable of lipogenic and osteogenic differentiation in vitro.Conclusion Rat aortic vascular stem cells with mesenchymal stem cell characteristics can be successfully isolated and cultured by adherent culture of the segmented outer membrane.

To evaluate relationship of maternal hepatic vein Doppler flow parameters and cardiac output (CO) with neonatal birth weight in uncomplicated pregnancies (UP) and pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction (FGR) .
 Methods: Hepatic vein impedance index (HVI), venous pulse transit time (VPTT), and CO were measured in women with UP at the 14th-37th weeks and complicated by FGR at the 26th-37th weeks who underwent maternal hepatic hemodynamic and echocardiographic examination during the ultrasonography. After delivery, the birth weight and the birth weight percentile of each neonate in this study were recorded. Correlations among HVI, VPTT, and CO were analyzed.
 Results: In the UP group, HVI, VPTT, and CO changed with the increase of gestation. In the FGR group, HVI was higher, VPTT was shorter, CO and neonatal birth weight were obviously lower than those in the UP at the 26th-37th weeks (P<0.05).
 Conclusion: There is a series of adaptive changes in hepatic venous hemodynamics and CO in UP with the increase of gestation to meet the demand of fetal growth, while the maladaptive changes in hepatic venous hemodynamics and CO in pregnant woman may contribute to FGR.
