Osteoporosis is a common bone disease， whose incidence is still on the rise， posing great challenges to patients and society. This review mainly studies the pathogenesis of osteoporosis from the aspects of oxidative stress， inflammatory response， and glucolipotoxicity-induced injury and clarifies the efficacy and mechanism of some active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine against osteoporosis through the integration of in vitro and in vivo experiments. The experimental results suggest that some active ingredients can improve bone resorption markers and maintain bone homeostasis by modulating inflammation， oxidative stress， etc. These active ingredients regulate osteoporosis through the receptor activator of nuclear transcription factor-κB （NF-κB） ligand （RANKL） pathway， osteoprotegerin （OPG） pathway， Wnt/β-catenin pathway， NF-κB pathway， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） pathway， adenosine monophosphate （AMP）-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） pathway， and oxidative stress pathway. This review provides ideas for the progress of the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis with the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine， aiming to provide new potential lead compounds and reference for the development of innovative drugs and clinical therapy for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of neuroligin-1,-2(NLGN-1,-2)on oligodendrocyte(OLs)differentiation and myelination in the central nervous system.Methods OLs were cultured in vitro in the presence of different concentrations of NLGN-1 and NLGN-2.Morphological differentiation of OLs was observed by immunofluorescent staining and mRNA expression levels of myelin-associated genes were detected by Real-time PCR.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of myelin-related proteins.Results NLGN-1,-2 accelerated the differentiation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells(OPCs)into mature OLs,and promoted the ability of myelin sheath formation.In vitro culture conditions,the dosage of 500 μg/L had the best promotion effect on OLs differentiation and maturation,and NLGN-2 had better promoting effect than that of NLGN-1.Furthermore,the mRNA expression levels of myelin-associated genes myelin protein P0(MPZ),myelin basic protein(MBP)increased after the neuroligins treatments detected by Real-time PCR.Western blotting result showed that the expressions of MBP and MPZ increased significantly after 500 μg/L treatment with NLGN-1 and NLGN-2 for 12 hours.Conclusion NLGN-1,-2 promote OLs differentiation and myelination.The positive effect of NLGN-2 is greater than that of NLGN-1 significantly,suggesting that the treatment with inhibitory synaptic-associated cytokines may improve the ability of myelin sheath formation in the central nervous system.

Objective To explore the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation bracelet at Neiguan acupoint on the postoperative nausea and vomiting after thyroidectomy under general an-esthesia.Methods Seventy-two female patients underwent thyroidectomy,aged 18-50 years,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were enrolled.The patients were assigned 1 ∶ 1 to two groups by permuted block randomization:the electrical stimulation group and the control group,36 patients in each group.Before an-esthesia induction,patients in both groups wore domestic transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation bracelets,and the electrodes were aimed at Neiguan acupoint.The electrical stimulation group started to stimulate Neiguan acupoint,and adjusted the proper intensity to make the patient feel tingling in the related area of the hand.When the bracelet was fixed firmly,turned it off.At the end of the operation,the bracelet was turned on with the stimulation intensity set before induction for 24 hours.Patients in the control group also wore the bracelet for 24 hours,but it was never turned on.The number of cases of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)and the number of remedial cases of antiemetic drugs were recorded.Results Compared with the control group,the incidence of PONV and postoperative vomiting in the electrical stimula-tion group were significantly reduced within 24 hours after surgery(P＜0.05),and the differences were mainly in 1-6 hours after surgery(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the rate of remedial ca-ses of antiemetic drugs between the two groups at different time periods.Conclusion Transcutaneous electri-cal stimulation bracelet at Neiguan acupoint can effectively reduce the incidence of PONV within 24 hours after thyroidectomy.

ObjectiveIn recent years, the negative impact of microgravity on astronauts’ nervous systems has received widespread attention. The repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) technology has shown significant positive effects in the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders. The potential benefits of combined frequency stimulation (CFS) which combines different frequency stimulation patterns in ameliorating neurological dysfunctions induced by the microgravity environment, still require in-depth investigation. Exploring the therapeutic effects and electrophysiological mechanisms of CFS in improving various neurological disorders caused by microgravity holds significant importance for neuroscience and the clinical application of magnetic stimulation. MethodsThis study employed 40 C57BL/6 mice, randomly divided into 5 groups: sham group, hindlimb unloading (HU) group, 10 Hz group, 20 Hz group, and combined frequency stimulation (10 Hz+20 Hz, CFS) group. Mice in all groups except the sham group received 14 d of simulated microgravity conditions along with 14 d of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. The effects of CFS on negative emotions and spatial cognitive abilities were assessed through sucrose preference tests and water maze experiments. Finally, patch-clamp techniques were used to record action potentials, resting membrane potentials, and ion channel dynamics of granule neurons in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) region. ResultsCompared to the single-frequency stimulation group, behavioral results indicated that the combined frequency stimulation (10 Hz+20 Hz) significantly improved cognitive impairments and negative emotions in simulated microgravity mice. Electrophysiological experiments revealed a decrease in excitability of granule neurons in the hippocampal DG region after HU manipulation, whereas the combined frequency stimulation notably enhanced neuronal excitability and improved the dynamic characteristics of voltage-gated Na⁺ and K⁺ channels. ConclusionThe repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation with combined frequencies (10 Hz+20 Hz) effectively ameliorates cognitive impairments and negative emotions in simulated microgravity mice. This improvement is likely attributed to the influence of combined frequency stimulation on neuronal excitability and the dynamic characteristics of Na⁺ and K⁺ channels. Consequently, this study holds the promise to provide a theoretical basis for alleviating cognitive and emotional disorders induced by microgravity environments.

Social behavior is extremely important for the physical and mental health of individuals, their growth and development, and for social development. Social behavioral disorders have become a typical clinical representation of a variety of psychiatric disorders and have serious adverse effects on the development of individuals. The prefrontal cortex, as one of the key areas responsible for social behavior, involves in many advanced brain functions such as social behavior, emotion, and decision-making. The neural activity of prefrontal cortex has a major impact on the performance of social behavior. Numerous studies demonstrate that neurons and glial cells can regulate certain social behaviors by themselves or the interaction which we called neural microcircuits; and the collaboration with other brain regions also regulates different types of social behaviors. The prefrontal cortex (PFC)-thalamus projections mainly influence social dominance and social preference; the PFC-amygdala projections play a key role in fear behavior, emotional behavior, social exploration, and social identification; and the PFC-nucleus accumbens projections mainly involve social preference, social memory, social cognition, and spatial-social associative learning. Based on the above neural mechanism, many studies have focused on applying the non-invasive neurostimulation to social deficit-related symptoms, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) and focused ultrasound stimulation (FUS). Our previous study also investigated that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can improve the social behavior of mice and low-intensity focused ultrasound ameliorated the social avoidance behavior of mice by enhancing neuronal activity in the prefrontal cortex. In this review, we summarize the relationship between neurons, glial cells, brain projection and social behavior in the prefrontal cortex, and systematically show the role of the prefrontal cortex in the regulation of social behavior. We hope our summarization will provide a reference for the neural mechanism and effective treatment of social disorders.

Objective To establish a method for testing isolated mitral valve in vitro and quantitatively evaluate the effect of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair technology(TEER)on functional mitral regurgitation(FMR)(non-A2-P2 regurgitation).Methods In this study,an FMR(non-A2-P2 regurgitation)model was developed by dilating the annulus orifice and displacing the papillary muscle in isolated porcine mitral valve.The hydrodynamics characteristics of 6 valves were tested by a pulsatile flow testing system under different physiological and pathological conditions before and after TEER.Results The results show that the valve regurgitation improved from moderate-severe[regurgitant fraction(60.2±17.5)％]to mild-moderate[regurgitant fraction(34.7±12.0)％]by repair(P＜0.001).The EOA[(3.8±1.6)cm2 vs.(2.2±0.5)cm2,P＜0.001]and the forward cross valve pressure difference[(1.8±1.3)mmHg vs.(3.8± 1.8)mmHg,P＜0.001],which characterize the forward flow performance of the valve,were compared before and after repair,and the differences were statistically significant.At the same time,the repair caused valve stenosis(the effective orifice area decreased by 40％and the positive differential pressure increased by 110％),but the valves was still within the normal physiological range,and no iatrogenic stenosis was caused.Conclusions It can be seen that TEER has an effect on FMR.This study provides validation and evaluation methods in vitro for expanding indications and improving TEER,and reference for developing standards of transcatheter valve repair testing in vitro.

Objectives:To explore the effect and possible mechanisms of mild hypothermia on interferon(IFN)-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis. Methods:Cardiomyocytes were stimulated in ordinary temperature and mild hypothermia by IFN-α2b under different concentrations for different times.Proliferation activity of cardiomyocytes was detected by CCK-8 assay.Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry technique.The effects of different interventions on mitochondrial morphology were examined using Mito-Tracker Green and laser scanning confocal microscope,respectively.The mitochondrial membrane potentials under different intervention conditions were detected by flow cytometry.The fusion of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1)and mitochondria,and the effects of different interventions on the mitochondria was examined by Drp1 or mitochondrial fluorescent probes and laser scanning confocal microscope.The effects of different intervention conditions on the protein expression level of Phospho-Drp1(p-Drp1)Ser616,Drp1,cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(cleaved-PARP1),poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(PARP1)were detected by Western blot. Results:CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry results showed that IFN-α2b inhibited the proliferation and enhanced the apoptosis of AC16 cardiomyocytes in a time and dose-dependent manner,these effects could be attenuated by mild hypothermia.Mito-Tracker Green,laser scanning confocal microscope and flow cytometry results showed that the extent of damage of mitochondria with different interventions were attenuated in the setting of mild hypothermia as compared with ordinary temperature.The morphology of mitochondria remained intact and the mitochondrial membrane potentials were the highest in mild hypothermia group.Injured AC16 cardiomyocytes released Drp1 from cytoplasm to mitochondria and increased mitochondrial fission,these effects were abolished after mild hypothermia.p-Drp1 Ser616/Drp1 ratio and cleaved-PARP1/PARP1 ratio were decreased after mild hypothermia,and above effects could be reversed by mitochondrial division inhibitor-1(Mdivi-1)pretreatment. Conclusions:Mild hypothermia inhibits IFN-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis via improving mitochondrial function.
