Aim To evaluate the hypolipidemic effect of the total phenylpropanoid glycosides extracted from Ligustrum robustum (Roxb.) Blume (LRTPG) on hyperlipidemic golden hamsters and explore its regulatory effect on intestinal flora. Methods Sixty hamsters were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, a positive drug group, LRTPG-L group, LRTPG-M group, and LRTPG-H group. After the successful induction of the model by high-fat diet, the animals were continuously administered for four weeks, and their blood lipids and liver lipids were detected. The formed feces from the colorectal region of the hamsters in the control group, model group and LRTPG-H group were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing. Results LRTPG reduced serum TG, TC, LDL-C and liver TG, TC concentrations significantly in hyperlipidemic hamsters. The results of the intestinal microbiota sequencing showed that compared to the control group, LRTPG significantly decreased the relative abundance of the phylum Firmicutes and increased the relative abundance of the phylum Bacteroidetes and Verrucomicrobia (P < 0.01) at the phylum level. At the family level, LRTPG significantly increased the relative abundance of Christensenellaceae, Peptococcaceae, and Verrucomicrobiaceae (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). At the genus level, LRTPG significantly increased the relative abundance of Oscillospira, Oscillibacter, Flavonifractor and Akkermansiaceae (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). These changes in the flora were beneficial to the hypolipidemic effect of LRTPG. Conclusion LRTPG may exert its hypolipidemic effect by improving the intestinal flora disorder caused by a high-fat diet in golden hamsters.

Objective To preliminarily investigate the anti-tumor effects of phytosphingosine(PHS)and the involvement of inducing apoptosis of leukemia cells.Methods Cellular model of leukemia was established in leukemia cell lines K562 and SUP-B15.CCK-8 assay and EdU assay were used to measure the viability and DNA synthesis of K562 and SUP-B15 cells.RNA-seq was carried out to verify the differentially expressed genes(DEGs)after PHS treatment.Gene Ontology(GO)enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analyses were applied to analyze the involved functions and signaling pathways.Comparative Toxicogenomics Database(CTD)and Discovery Studio software were employed to predict the underlying targets of PHS and molecular docking.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,mitochondrial membrane potential was evaluated by JC-1 probe,and protein expression of key molecules was validated by Western blotting.Results PHS inhibited the proliferation of K562 and SUP-B15 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.The half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)of K562 cells was 17.67 and 12.52 pmol/L for 24 and 48 h,respectively,and the IC50 value of SUP-B15 cells was 17.58 and 14.86 μmol/L for 24 and 48 h,respectively.PHS treatment at a dose of 20 μmol/L for 48 h resulted in significant inhibition of DNA synthesis.GO enrichment analysis of the K562 cells showed that PHS might be involved in positive regulation of apoptotic process,plasma membrane and its integral components,and protein kinase binding and activity.Reverse predictive analysis showed that BCL-2 protein was the most likely target of PHS.PHS significantly increased the apoptotic rate of leukemia cells(P＜0.05)in a dose-dependent manner,reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential,and down-regulated BCL-2 level(P＜0.05)and up-regulated the levels of Cleaved caspase-3 and Cleaved caspase-9(P＜0.05).Conclusion PHS may inhibit the proliferation of leukemia cells by inducing mitochondria-dependent apoptosis,possibly through PHS and BCL-2 interaction.

Objective To mine the adverse drug events(ADE)signal of avatrombopag,an effective drug for thrombocytopenia treatment,based on real world data in order to provide reference for its clinical safety application.Methods The OpenVigil2.1 pharmacovigilance platform was used to obtain the ADE report data of avatrombopag from May 2018 to March 2023 in the database of FDA adverse event reporting system(FAERS).The ADE signals were classified and described by the system organ class(SOC)and preferred term(PT)of the ADE terminology set in the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities(MedDRA),and reporting odds ratio(ROR)and UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency(MHRA)comprehensive standard were used to detect the positive ADE signals.Results A total of 1 879 ADE reports related to avatrombopag were obtained,24 SOCs were involved,and 28 positive ADE signals were detected at PT level.Among these signals,the strongest ones were renal vein thrombosis,portal vein thrombosis and graft versus host disease,while the reports accounting for the largest numbers were headache,fatigue and asthenia.There were 8 ADE signals discovered newly,that is,seasonal allergy,back disorder,musculoskeletal discomfort,flatulence,hypersomnia,rash macular,emotional disorder,and rhinorrhoea.Conclusion For clinical use of avatrombopag,clinicians should not only concern the risk of thrombosis,but also pay close attention to ADE signals such as seasonal allergy,back disorder,musculoskeletal discomfort,flatulence,hypersomnia,rash macular,emotional disorder,and rhinorrhoea that are not documented in the instructions.

Band 3 protein is an important channel protein in the erythrocyte membrane which mediates the anion transport process inside and outside the cell membrane,as well as contributes to the maintenance of erythrocyte morphology,and has important physiological functions.However,the distribution state of this protein in the primary cell membrane is not known.Cryo-scanning electron microscopy enables imaging of the surface morphology of biological samples in a near-physiological state.In order to investigate the distribution of band 3 protein on erythrocyte membranes under physiological conditions,the present study utilized 5-nm gold nanoparticles modified with the antibodies to specifically bind to the band 3 protein on human blood erythrocyte membranes and imaged them by cryo-scanning electron microscopy,to obtain distribution of band 3 protein on human blood erythrocyte membranes.The results showed that the membrane proteins on the erythrocyte membranes tended to be clustered and distributed to form ″protein islands″,and band 3 proteins were mainly distributed in these protein islands,which were tightly connected with each other to form several functional microregions to play their respective roles.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of Huangjing Jiannao granules on learning and memory abilities and cerebral blood flow in the rat model of vascular cognitive impairment （VCI） and to explore the mechanism of Huangjing Jiannao granules in the treatment of VCI. MethodSeventy-two SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly selected， with 12 rats as the sham operation group. The remaining rats were subjected to bilateral carotid artery ligation （2-VO） for the modeling of VCI. According to the randomized block design， the successfully modeled rats were grouped as follows： model， donepezil hydrochloride （0.50 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.36， 4.72， 9.44 g·kg^-1， respectively） Huangjing Jiannao granules. After 6 weeks of treatment， Morris water maze test and new object recognition test were conducted to evaluate the learning and memory abilities of the rats. After continuous gavage for 8 weeks， the cerebral blood flow was recorded by a laser microcirculation blood flow imager， and the survival and injury of hippocampal neurons were observed by Nissl staining. The expression of neuronal nuclear antigen （NeuN） in the hippocampus was detected by immunohistochemistry （IHC）. The levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the serum were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The protein levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）， phosphorylated protein kinase B （p-Akt）， nuclear factor-κB p65 （NF-κB p65）， and nuclear factor-κB inhibitor α （IκBα） in the hippocampus were determined by Western blot. ResultCompared with the sham operation group， the model group showed weakened learning and memory abilities （P<0.01）， reduced blood flow in the whole brain， forebrain， and hindbrain （P<0.01）， damaged neurons and reduced survived neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region （P<0.01）， down-regulated expression of NeuN （P<0.01）， elevated levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the serum （P<0.01）， up-regulated protein levels of PI3K， p-Akt， and NF-κB p65 in the hippocampal tissue， and down-regulated protein level of IκBα （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， medium- and high-dose Huangjing Jiannao granules improved the learning and memory abilities （P<0.05，P<0.01）. High-dose Huangjing Jiannao granules increased the blood flow in the whole brain， forebrain， and hindbrain （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and medium-dose Huangjing Jiannao granules increased the blood flow in the whole brain （P<0.05）. All the doses of Huangjing Jiannao granules increased the number of survived neurons （P<0.05，P<0.01） and up-regulated the protein level of NeuN （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Medium and high-dose Huangjing Jiannao granules lowered the level of TNF-α （P<0.05，P<0.01）， down-regulated the protein levels of PI3K， p-Akt， and NF-κB p65 （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and up-regulated the protein level of IκBα （P<0.01）. ConclusionHuangjing Jiannao granules can improve the learning and memory abilities and promote the recovery of cerebral blood flow in the rat model of VCI induced by 2-VO by regulating the expression of proteins involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway， inhibiting inflammation， and reducing hippocampal neuron injury.

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of the Mongolian medicine Sugemule-4 on the metabolism of insomnia rats， and to preliminarily explore its possible mechanisms for improving insomnia. METHODS The rat model of chronic stress insomnia was established by tail clipping stimulation and intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenyl alanine solution. Twenty-four male rats were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， diazepam group （positive control， 0.92 mg/kg）， and Sugemule-4 group （5.2 g/kg）， with 6 rats in each group. Since the 7th day of tail clipping stimulation， the Sugemule-4 group and diazepam group began to be intragastrically administered with relevant medicine； the normal group and model group were intragastrically administered with an equal volume of distilled water， once a day， for 14 consecutive days. The learning and memory abilities of rats were tested using a water maze experiment， and the non-invasive sleep activity monitoring system was used to monitor the 24- hour sleep time of rats. A metabolomics study was conducted on rat serum and hippocampal tissue by using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The multivariate statistical analysis method was adopted to analyze the differential metabolites in serum and hippocampal tissue of rats， and screen for differential metabolites and metabolic pathways among those groups. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the escape latency of rats in the model group was significantly increased， the times of crossing platforms were significantly reduced， and the percentage of average 24-hour sleep time was significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the levels of the above indicators were significantly reversed in the diazepam group and Sugemule-4 group （P＜0.05）. Metabolomics studies found that a total of 9 differential metabolites were identified in rat serum and hippocampal tissue， including 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid， canine urate， canine urinary quinolinic acid， 5-hydroxytryptamine， phenol sulfate， 1-carboxyethyltyrosine， 3-（4-hydroxyphenyl） lactate， N-acetyl tyrosine， tyrosine and phenol sulfate， mainly involving 2 metabolic pathways of tryptophan and tyrosine.CONCLUSIONS Sugemule-4 can improve the sleep time and behavioral performance of insomnia rats， and its mechanism may be associated with affecting amino acid metabolic pathways such as tryptophan and tyrosine.

Objective:To investigate the value of implantable cardiac monitor (ICM) in the diagnosis and treatment of patients over 60 years old with unexplained syncope.Methods:This was a multi-center, prospective cohort study. Between June 2018 and April 2021, patients over the age of 60 with unexplained syncope at Beijing Hospital, Fuwai Hospital, Beijing Anzhen Hospital and Puren Hospital were enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on their decision to receive ICM implantation (implantation group and conventional follow-up group). The endpoint was the recurrence of syncope and cardiogenic syncope as determined by positive cardiac arrhythmia events recorded at the ICM or diagnosed during routine follow-up. Kaplan‐Meier survival analysis was used to compare the differences of cumulative diagnostic rate between the 2 groups. A multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors of diagnosis of cardiogenic syncope in patients with unexplained syncope.Results:A total of 198 patients with unexplained syncope, aged (72.9±8.25) years, were followed for 558.0 (296.0,877.0) d, including 98 males (49.5%). There were 100 (50.5%) patients in the implantation group and 98 (49.5%) in the conventional follow-up group. Compared with conventional follow-up group, patients in the implantation group were older, more likely to have comorbidities, had a higher proportion of first degree atrioventricular block indicated by baseline electrocardiogram, and had a lower body mass index (all P<0.05). During the follow-up period, positive cardiac arrhythmia events were recorded in 58 (58.0%) patients in the ICM group. The diagnosis rate (42.0% (42/100) vs. 4.1% (4/98), P<0.001) and the intervention rate (37.0% (37/100) vs. 2.0% (2/98), P<0.001) of cardiogenic syncope in the implantation group were higher than those in the conventional follow-up group (all P<0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative diagnostic rate of cardiogenic syncope was significantly higher in the implantation group than in the traditional follow-up group ( HR=11.66, 95% CI 6.49-20.98, log-rank P<0.001). Multivariate analysis indicated that ICM implantation, previous atrial fibrillation, diabetes mellitus or first degree atrioventricular block in baseline electrocardiogram were independent predictors for cardiogenic syncope (all P<0.05). Conclusions:ICM implantation improves the diagnosis and intervention rates in patients with unexplained syncope, and increases diagnostic efficiency in patients with unexplained syncope.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation and encompasses ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). IBD has emerged as a global healthcare problem. Clinically efficacious therapeutic agents are deficient. This study concentrates on models of ulcerative colitis with the objective of discovering novel therapeutic strategies. Previous investigations have established that schisandrin A demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects in vitro, concurrently enhancing the transcriptional activity of farnesoid X receptor (FXR). FXR inversely modulates the transcriptional activity of NF-κB, which has an important role in regulating inflammatory responses. Consequently, the current study was to explore the safeguarding influence of schisandrin A on ulcerative colitis and delineate the mechanism by which it regulates this effect through the FXR signaling pathway. The effect of schisandrin A on the mRNA levels of inflammatory factors was evaluated in RAW264.7 cells. The dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the relationship between schisandrin A and FXR targeting. The animal experiments were performed in accordance with the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval No. PZSHUTCM2304250005). Acute ulcerative colitis was induced in wild-type or FXR knockout C57BL/6 mice by drinking 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days, and schisandrin A was administered via gavage for a continuous treatment period of 7 days. The body weight and faecal were monitored daily. The mRNA levels of inflammatory factors in colon tissue and FXR target genes were measured by RT-qPCR. The findings revealed that schisandrin A, in vitro, impeded the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced elevation in mRNA levels of inflammatory factors and schisandrin A could augment transcriptional activity of FXR. In wild-type mice, schisandrin A significantly improved weight loss, colon shortening, loose stools and blood in stools in mice with acute ulcerative colitis, and schisandrin A significantly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors genes and significantly increased the expression of FXR target genes in colon tissues. In FXR knockout mice, the administration of schisandrin A failed to yield ameliorative effect on acute ulcerative colitis in mice. In conclusion, schisandrin A can reduce intestinal inflammation through the FXR signaling pathway to alleviate acute ulcerative colitis in mice. Implications arise that Schisandra lignans could serve as lead compounds for drug development aimed at inflammatory bowel disease.

Objective Tissue uptake and distribution of nano-/microplastics was studied at a single high dose by gavage in vivo.Methods Fluorescent microspheres (100 nm, 3 μm, and 10 μm) were given once at a dose of 200 mg/(kg·body weight). The fluorescence intensity (FI) in observed organs was measured using the IVIS Spectrum at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h after administration. Histopathology was performed to corroborate these findings.Results In the 100 nm group, the FI of the stomach and small intestine were highest at 0.5 h, and the FI of the large intestine, excrement, lung, kidney, liver, and skeletal muscles were highest at 4 h compared with the control group (P < 0.05). In the 3 μm group, the FI only increased in the lung at 2 h (P < 0.05). In the 10 μm group, the FI increased in the large intestine and excrement at 2 h, and in the kidney at 4 h (P < 0.05). The presence of nano-/microplastics in tissues was further verified by histopathology. The peak time of nanoplastic absorption in blood was confirmed.Conclusion Nanoplastics translocated rapidly to observed organs/tissues through blood circulation;however, only small amounts of MPs could penetrate the organs.
