BACKGROUND:Quercetin plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,but less research has been done on its mechanism of promoting the migration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of quercetin on the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells through in vitro experiments,and to explore the regulatory role of CCR1 and CXCR4. METHODS:Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were selected as experimental subjects.CCK8 assay was used to detect the effect of quercetin on the proliferative activity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Cell scratch assay and Transwell assay were used to detect the in vitro invasive and migratory abilities of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells after quercetin treatment,respectively.The role of quercetin in relation to CCR1 and CXCR4 was demonstrated with the help of molecular docking technology.Western blot assay and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR were used to detect the migration-related chemokine expression after quercetin treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)5 and 10 μmol/L quercetin could significantly promote the proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,and the drug concentration of 10 μmol/L resulted in the highest cell proliferation efficiency.(2)To better explore the dose-effect relationship of quercetin affecting the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,5 and 10 μmol/L quercetin were selected for the subsequent experiments,and ligustrazine was used as the positive control drug,and the experiments were divided into blank control group,5 μmol/L quercetin group,10 μmol/L quercetin group,and 100 μmol/L ligustrazine group.(3)In vitro migration and invasion ability of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were elevated in a concentration-dependent manner after quercetin treatment,and the migration effect of 10 μmol/L quercetin group was better than that of ligustrazine group.(4)The molecular docking results suggested that there was a strong interaction between quercetin and CCR1 and CXCR4.(5)Quercetin could up-regulate the expression of CCR1 and CXCR4 proteins and mRNA.(6)This study confirmed at the cellular level that quercetin could promote the migration of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by targeting CCR1 and CXCR4.

Objective:To investigate the value of radiomics nomogram based on standardized pre-treatment chest enhanced CT in predicting the mutation status of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) for patients with lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on pre-treatment chest enhanced CT images and clinical data of 262 patients from the affiliated hospital of Jining Medical University with pathologically proven primary lung adenocarcinoma who received EGFR gene testing, including EGFR wild type ( n=122) and mutant type ( n=140). The patients were divided into training group ( n=183) and testing group ( n=79) according to a ratio of 7∶3 by stratified sampling method. Standardized pre-processed the images, delineated the ROI and extracted the radiomics features. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm was used to reduce the dimension and select key features. The standardized radiomics model, clinical model and the combined model were established by Logistic Regression (LR) machine learning method. Calculated the Rad-score and drew the nomogram. ROC curve and Delong were used to evaluate and compare the predictive performance of different models. Results:23 standardized enhanced CT radiomics features and 4 clinical features were selected. The predictive performance of standardized radiomics model was better than that of non-standardized radiomics model [area under curve (AUC): 0.863 vs. 0.805, t=2.19, P<0.05]. The AUCs of the combined model and standardized radiomics model were higher than that of the clinical model (training group: 0.885, 0.863 vs. 0.774, t=3.57, 2.17, P<0.05; testing group: 0.873, 0.829 vs. 0.763, t=2.19, 2.02, P<0.05). The radiomics nomogram was built based on Rad-score, age, sex, smoking history and BMI. Conclusions:The combined model and standardized radiomics model could effectively predict the mutation status of EGFR gene in lung adenocarcinoma patients before treatment, providing valuable clinical insights.

As an acupoint where the qi of the kidneys is infused in the back and waist,Shenshu(BL23)points belongs to the category of the foot taiyang bladder meridian,which is widely used clinically in the treatment of genitourinary system diseases.Shenshu points are located in the back of the human body foot taiyang bladder meridian direct branch circulation,and for the foot shaoyin meridian of where the symptom is,therefore it has a special property.However,there is a lack of in-depth research on the point properties and utilization of Shenshu points,thus this paper explores their acupoint properties based on the theories of channel,symptom and root cause,and the four seas,and investigates the correlations between their therapeutic efficacy and the method of moxibustion,acupoint matching,and depth of needling through the ancient books and clinical practice.The results showed that different methods of acupuncture and moxibustion,the combination of acupoints,and the depth of needling can stimulate the different therapeutic effects of the Shenshu.Therefore,the therapeutic effects of the Shenshu points can only be better utilized if the acupoints are clearly identified and supplemented with appropriate methods of acupuncture and moxibustion,the compatibility of acupoints,and the depth of needling.

In order to solve the problem of resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to multiple antibiotics, it is an effective way to find inhibitors of P. aeruginosa efflux pump. In this study, 15 new ornithine peptidomimetic derivatives were designed and synthesized by changing the side chain structure of natural amino acids with PAβN, a dipeptide efflux pump inhibitor, and their synergic activity with aztreonam, a monocyclic β-lactam antibiotic, against P. aeruginosa was evaluated. Among them, the representative compound 12b not only enhanced the antibacterial activity of β-lactam antibiotics aztreonam, ceftazidime and meropenem, but also significantly enhanced the antibacterial action of macrolide antibiotics clarithromycin, showing a broad-spectrum synergic sensitization effect. In addition, compound 12b also has a good safety. Preliminary mechanisms suggest that 12b works by directly targeting the efflux transporter MexB. These results provide a new lead compound for the development of a new class of efflux pump inhibitors against P. aeruginosa.

Objective To explore the molecular epidemiological characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP),and reveal its mechanism of resistance to ceftazidime/avibactam(CZA).Methods CZA-re-sistant CRKP strains initially isolated from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2021 to September 2023 were collected.The carriage of 5 carbapenemase genes(blaKPC,blaNDM,blaOXA,blaVIM,blaIMp)were detected with gene amplification method and colloidal gold method.The relative copy number and expression level of Klebsiella pneumoniae(KP)carbapenemase-producing KP(KPC-KP)was detected with real-time quantita-tive polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR),mutation sites of KPC mutation strains were analyzed with whole-ge-nome sequencing,and epidemic characteristics of CRKP and resistance mechanism to CZA were analyzed.Results A total of 73 CZA-resistant CRKP strains were isolated,with 37(50.68％)being KPC and NDM co-producing strains,33(45.21％)NDM-producing alone(23 strains producing NDM-5 and 10 strains producing NDM-1),and 3 KPC-producing alone.KP-2842 strain was identified as ST11-type KPC-33 variant,KP-2127 and KP-2189 strains produced KPC-2.Compared with KP ATCC BAA-1705,the copy number of blaKPC in these strains up-regulated by 1.04-3.86 fold,and the expression increased by 6.66-12.93 fold,respectively.Colloidal gold and PCR methods demonstrated good consistency and the ability to detect the enzyme co-producing and KPC-33 variant.Conclusion In this hospital,the resistance of CRKP to CZA is primarily mediated by the metalloenzyme NDM,with co-produc-tion of NDM and KPC being a characteristic of CRKP.High copy number and expression level of blaKPC-2 also con-tribute to CZA resistance.This study identified the KPC-33 variant for the first time in ST11-type CRKP in Jiangsu Province.

Endodontic diseases are a kind of chronic infectious oral disease.Common endodontic treatment concepts are based on the removal of inflamed or necrotic pulp tissue and the replacement by gutta-percha.However,it is very essential for endodontic treatment to debride the root canal system and prevent the root canal system from bacterial reinfection after root canal therapy(RCT).Recent research,encompassing bacterial etiology and advanced imaging techniques,contributes to our understanding of the root canal system's anatomy intricacies and the technique sensitivity of RCT.Success in RCT hinges on factors like patients,infection severity,root canal anatomy,and treatment techniques.Therefore,improving disease management is a key issue to combat endodontic diseases and cure periapical lesions.The clinical difficulty assessment system of RCT is established based on patient conditions,tooth conditions,root canal configuration,and root canal needing retreatment,and emphasizes pre-treatment risk assessment for optimal outcomes.The findings suggest that the presence of risk factors may correlate with the challenge of achieving the high standard required for RCT.These insights contribute not only to improve education but also aid practitioners in treatment planning and referral decision-making within the field of endodontics.

The overall health condition of patients significantly affects the diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of endodontic diseases.A systemic consideration of the patient's overall health along with oral conditions holds the utmost importance in determining the necessity and feasibility of endodontic therapy,as well as selecting appropriate therapeutic approaches.This expert consensus is a collaborative effort by specialists from endodontics and clinical physicians across the nation based on the current clinical evidence,aiming to provide general guidance on clinical procedures,improve patient safety and enhance clinical outcomes of endodontic therapy in patients with compromised overall health.
