Objective To explore the regulation of DIRAS2 gene expression by acetylated STAT3 and its involvement in the proliferation of triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)cells.Methods The expression levels of DIRAS2 and acetylated STAT3 in TNBC tissues and cells were analyzed by database query,Western blotting,and qRT-PCR.TNBC cell lines MDA-MB-231 and SUM159 were selected,and lentivirus or plasmid was used to construct DIRAS2 overexpression and STAT3 wild or Lys685 mutation cell lines.The CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate the effect of DIRAS2 and STAT3 acetylation on the proliferation of TNBC cells.Western blotting,pyrosequencing,ChIP and IP were employed to investigate the regulatory effect and mechanism of acetylated STAT3 on DIRAS2 expression.Results The expression of DIRAS2 was decreased in TNBC tissues and cells.Pyrosequencing analysis found that the methylation level of CpG islands in the DIRAS2 promoter was increased in TNBC cells compared with normal breast epithelial cells,which promoted the growth of cancer cells.Furthermore,TNBC cells showed an increase in STAT3 acetylation,which was accompanied by a shift in the methylation status of the DIRAS2 promoter.ChIP and IP experiments showed that acetylated STAT3 could bind to the DIRAS2 promoter,and the STAT3 Lys685 mutation disrupted the interaction between STAT3 and DNMT1.Conclusion Acetylated STAT3 induces DIRAS2 promoter methylation by recruiting DNMT1,leading to loss of DIRAS2 expression and cancer cell proliferation in TNBC.

【Objective】 To perform quantitative analysis on the sample provincial laws and regulations for voluntary blood donation, and provide reference for further revision of laws and regulations. 【Methods】 31 study samples were current provincial laws and regulations for voluntary blood donation that can be collected from open sources. The issue date and the revision date of each sample were recorded. With "The Blood Donation Law of the People’s Republic of China" as reference, 5 categories were formed and additional clauses in samples were coded and rated following content analysis procedures. Sample provinces were divided into two groups based on donation rate and their differences in evaluation scores of categories were examined using rank sum test. 【Results】 Until December, 2021, 31 sample provinces had issued and implemented provincial laws and regulation for voluntary blood donation, and 14 of which had been revised. Many detailed clauses (total score 9.32±3.09) were added in sample provincial laws and regulations, more clauses were added in the categories of 'related government agencies and their responsibilities’, 'management of clinical blood use’ and 'rewards and punishment’. Sample provinces were divided into two groups according to the donation rate per 1 000 people recommended by World Health Organization(10‰). Compared to lower donation rate group, the total score and sub score in the categories of 'basic principles’, 'management of blood collection and supply’ were significantly higher in higher donation rate group. 【Conclusion】 In revision and improvement of provincial laws and regulations, 'basic principles’ and 'management of blood collection and supply’ could be considered. This assay mainly tries to provide a new research perspective and perform quantitative analysis on content of sample provincial laws and regulation for voluntary blood donation, the actual effect of the results in this study need longer time to be examined, and we will keep following its new advances.

ObjectiveTo provide a new idea for exploring the molecular genetic approach to the pathogenesis of schizophrenia via construction of microRNA-messenger RNA （miRNA-mRNA） regulatory network in schizophrenia. MethodsThe microarray datasets of GSE54578 miRNA expression profiles in peripheral blood and GSE145554 mRNA expression in the anterior cingulate in postmortem brain of schizophrenic subjects were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus （GEO） database since July 2021. The GEO2R was used to identify the differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs， screen the miRNA with target differentially expressed mRNA， and predict their potential upstream transcription factors. The overlapping genes from the mRNA targeted by the differentially expressed miRNA and the mRNA differentially expressed in GSE145554 dataset were collected. Then the biological features of hub genes were analyzed via Gene Ontology （GO） analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis， and the protein-protein interaction （PPI） network and miRNA-mRNA regulatory network of hub genes were constructed. ResultsA total of 8 up-regulated differentially expressed miRNAs with targeted mRNA were screened out in GSE54578 datasets regarding schizophrenia， which involved in the regulation of 10 transcription factors， 247 down-regulated differentially expressed mRNAs were screened out in GSE145554 datasets， and 17 overlapping mRNAs were obtained. GO analysis showed that the target mRNAs were mainly involved in astrocyte differentiation and development. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the target mRNAs were mainly involved in Rap1 and Ras signaling pathways. PPI network analysis showed that the mRNAs （KRAS and CD28） might be key genes in schizophrenia. ConclusionThe integrated bioinformatics analysis based on GEO database can identify potential susceptibility genes in schizophrenia， and it also contributes to the construction of miRNA-mRNA regulatory network in schizophrenia.

From September 2020 to August 2021, 34 general practice trainees in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were were randomly divided into the control group and trial group with 17 in each group. The control group adopted the traditional clerkship method for outpatient clinical teaching; the trial group independently received patients with the supervision of clinical instructors, and the Leicester assessment package (LAP) was used for evaluation and training. The performance of two groups were assessed using the Beijing General Practitioner's Graduation Assessment and Admissions Patient Score Sheet. The LAP training was also given to control group at the late stage of the study, and the application of LAP was assessed with a questionnaire survey in two groups of trainees. The results showed that the performance of trial group was better than that of control group in terms of medical history collection [(23.12±1.05) vs. (21.18±0.88), t=-5.82, P<0.01 ], physical examination [(24.88±1.62) vs. (23.12±1.58), t=-3.22, P< 0.01 ], case analysis [(22.94±0.90) vs. (20.82±0.73), t=-7.55, P<0.01 ] and total score [(86.59±2.65) vs. (80.12±2.45) t=-7.40, P<0.01]. For assessment of LAP, all 34 trainees gave 5 points in items of improving patient care, knowledge and skills, communication skills, professional quality, reception skills, clinical thinking, clinical judgment, decision-making skills, and learning interest with the application of LAP in outpatient clinical teaching; the satisfaction of the trainees on the pertinence, teaching effect and LAP training method of the instructing physicians was 100% (34/34). It is suggested that the application of LAP for evaluation and implementation in general practice outpatient teaching will help to improve the teaching quality and the patient receiving ability of general practitioners.

Objective:To analyze the in vitro inhibitory effects of resveratrol on rabies virus. Methods:The challenge virus standard (CVS)-11 strain of rabies virus and BHK-21 cells were used to establish the infection model. In vitro inhibitory effects of resveratrol on rabies virus were analyzed at different stages of infection by direct immunofluorescence and cell fluorescence focus unit assay. Results:Without affecting cell growth, resveratrol could block the adsorption of virus, interfere with the entry of virus into cells and inhibit virus proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. The inhibition rate could reach up to about 95%. The results of co-incubation experiment showed that 40 μmol/L resveratrol could directly kill the virus.Conclusions:This study indicated that resveratrol inhibited the activity of rabies virus in a concentration-dependent manner.

Objective To develop the social support system for family caregivers of schizophrenic patients in community. Methods Based on the previous field investigation and the principle of comprehensiveness,feasibility,pertinence,suitability,generality and classification,the social support service item pool was established. Fifteen experts with intermediate or higher professional titles and working in the mental health fields were selected from government departments,specialized hospitals and community health service centers. The experts were consulted by Delphi and the results were analyzed. Results The average age of the consultation specialists was (40.7 ± 8.0) years, and the duration of working in mental illness rehabilitation was (14.9±7.6) years. The positive coefficients of the two rounds of consultation were 100％,the authoritative coefficients of experts were 0.795,and the coordination coefficients of opinions were from 0.252 to 0.344, respectively. The 67 items of social support service for family caregivers of schizophrenic patients in Beijing were obtained after two rounds of expert consultation, but fewer of the services were for schizophrenic caregivers only. Conclusion The authority and society should take measures to establish a social support system for family caregivers of patients with schizophrenia, in order to reduce their family burden and improve the quality of rehabilitation for mental patients in the community.

Objective To investigate the effects of Dihuangyinzi(DHYZ) on behaviors and RAGE/p38 pathway in APP/PS1 mice.MethodTwenty APP/PS1 dementia mice were randomly divided into model group(n=10) and Chinese medicine group(n=10).The blank group was C57 BL/6 J normal mouse(n=10).The mice in Chinese medicine group were intragastric administration with DHYZ (9.75 g·kg-1·d-1).The mice in model group and blank group were treated with distilled water.After 30 days,the abilities of learning and memory of mice were detected by Morris water maze.The expression of amyloid-beta1-42(Aβ1-42) in the hippocampus and cortex was detected by immunohistochemistry.Reactive oxygen species of brain tissue were detected by DCFH-DA Methods in the brain of APP/PS1 mice.Gene expression level of receptor for advanced glycation end products(RAGE) was measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in the cortex and hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice.The expression of phospho-mitogen-activated protein kinases (p38) was analyzed with Western blot and immunofluorescence analysis in the cortex and hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice.Results Behavioral Results showed that DHYZ significantly increased the distance((23.088±7.083)cm) and residence time((1.961±1.230)s)of effective area in Morris water maze on the fifth day(P<0.05,P<0.01)and remarkably increased the number of effective area crossings((1.607±0.405) times) and plats((0.893±0.283) times) in Morris water maze on the fifth day(P<0.01,P<0.05).DHYZ also significantly reduced the intracelluar ROS level(122.611±7.630) in the brain(P<0.01),and DHYZ could depress the expression of RAGE(1.467±0.081,7.983±0.136) and phosphorylation of p38 (0.376±0.026,0.538±0.016)in the cortex and hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice(P<0.01,P<0.05).Conclusions The Results demonstrate that DHYZ can partly improve memory impairment of APP/PS1 mice by the inhibition of RAGE/p38 pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects of Dihuang Yinzi (DY) on the receptor for advanced glycation end-products(RAGE)/reactive oxygen species(ROS)/apoptosis pathway in SH-SY5Y cells induced by amyloid-beta1-42 (Aβ1-42) oligomer. Methods Firstly, we adopted methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method to detect the cell vitality in fetal bovine serum (FBS) group, blank serum group, and low-, middle- and high- dose DY-containing serum groups, so as to confirm the optimal concentration and treatment time of DY-containing serum. Secondly, we applied MTT method to detect cell vitality and applied Annexin V/propidium iodide (PI) staining method to observe the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells treated with 0~20 μmol/L Aβ1-42 for 24 and 48 h, so as toconfirm the optimal concentration and treatment time of Aβ1-42 for establishing Alzheimer's disease (AD) model in vitro. Thirdly, MTT method was used for the detection of cell vitality, and Annexin V/PI staining method was used for detection of the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells in blank serum group, model group, western medicine control group and low-, middle-and high-dose DY-containing serum groups, and Dihydroethidium (DHE) method was used for the assay of ROS contents, so as to observe the effect of DY on the recovery of injured SH-SY5Y cells induced by Aβ1-42. Finally, we applied Western blot method to detect the expression level of RAGE in SH-SY5Y cells of blank group, model group and DY-containing serum group; after Aβ1-42-induced SH-SY5Y cells were transfected with RAGE gene, we adopted DHE staining method and Annexin V/PI staining method to detect ROS content and cell apoptotic rate in all of the above groups, so as to observe the effect of DY on SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis and RAGE expression. Results The cell vitalities were increased in low- and middle-dose DY-containing serum groups at 24 h (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 compared with that in the blank serum group). The conditions for the establishment of AD model in vitro were as follows: the optimal concentration of Aβ1-42 was 5μmol/L, and the treatment time was 24 h. The cell vitalities were significantly enhanced, the cell apoptotic rate and ROS content were significantly lowered in Aβ1-42-induced SH-SY5Y cells of the medication groups(P <0.05 or P < 0.01 compared with those in the model group) , and the cell vitality was the highest and the cell apoptotic rate was the lowest in the middle-dose DY-containing serum group. The RAGE expression level was decreased in Aβ1-42-induced SH-SY5Y cells of the middle-dose DY-containing serum group(P < 0.05 compared with that in the model group) . ROS content and cell apoptotic rate were decreased in Aβ1-42-induced SH-SY5Y cells transfected with RAGE gene in the middle-dose DY-containing serum group (P<0.01). Conclusion DY may play an anti-oxidative role through inhibiting the production of ROS and cell apoptosis, thus to suppress RAGE protein and to achieve the preventive and therapeutic effect for AD.
