Objective To investigate the effect of electromagnetic wave power density on the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)in the hippocampus of SD rats under 1800 MHz electromagnetic wave irradiation,and whether it exhibits a"window effect".Methods Ninety-eight 4-week-old SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into 14 groups,with 7 rats in each group.Seven groups were exposed groups(frequency:1800 MHz,power densities:0.1 mW/cm2,0.3 mW/cm2,0.5 mW/cm2,0.7 mW/cm2,0.9 mW/cm2,1.0 mW/cm2,1.2 mW/cm2)and corresponding 7 groups were control groups(power density:0 mW/cm2).Exposure was conducted for 12 hours daily for 3 weeks.After exposure,Western Blot was used to detect the expression level of GFAP in the hippocampal tissue,and immunohistochemistry staining was performed to determine the average optical density(MOD)value of GFAP-positive expression products in the DG,CA3,and CA1 regions of the hippocampal tissue,to determine the power density window of GFAP expression in the hippocampus of SD rats under 1800 MHz exposure.Results At power densities of 0.1 mW/cm2 and 0.3 mW/cm2,Western Blot results showed increased expression of GFAP in the rat hippocampus(P<0.05),and immunohistochemistry staining demonstrated increased MOD values of GFAP in the three regions(P<0.05).Conclusion Long-term exposure to 1800 MHz elect-romagnetic radiation has a"window effect"on the expression of GFAP in the DG,CA3,and CA1 regions of the hippocampus in SD rats,with power density windows of 0.1 mW/cm2 and 0.3 mW/cm2.

A novel U-Net network model which integrates ResNet and Transformer is proposed to address the problem of poor malaria-in fected erythrocyte performance of the existing models.ResNet is used in the encoder to deepen the feature extraction network for extracting deeper features,and the ResNet output is inputted into Transformer module for the feature enhancement in the target area,and finally the decoder module is used to perform feature fusion and output the results.The experiment on the malaria microscopy image dataset shows that the proposed method outperforms U-Net in Dice similarity coefficient,mean intersection over union,and mean pixel accuracy,reaching 87.40%,76.85%,and 85.28%,respectively.The proposed method can improve the accuracy of malaria-infected erythrocyte segmentation and provide a more effective and accurate solution for malaria diagnosis.

Taking the Ligustrum lucidum extract as an example, this study investigated the influence of external mechanical forces under different processing conditions on the crystallographic solid form and the key parameter of drug dissolution rate, so as to provide guidance for the preparation and quality control of traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Under different pulverization and tableting conditions, the change of crystallographic solid form of L. lucidum extract was observed by polarizing light microscope. Meanwhile, the effect of this change on the dissolution rate was investigated, and the mathematical relationship between crystal content and dissolution rate was analyzed. The results showed that the process of ball milling and tableting had a significant impact on the crystallographic solid form of L. lucidum extract. The amorphous extract displayed crystal transformation, which induced a significant decline in dissolution rate. Further studies revealed that there was a negative linear relationship between crystal content and dissolution rate. The results of this study indicated that the crystallographic solid form transformation of traditional Chinese medicine extracts might occur during the preparation process, which may cause potential risks to the quality of traditional Chinese medicine preparations. It is suggested that we should pay attention to and strengthen the investigation of the crystallographic solid form during the preparation process, so as to guarantee the safety, effectiveness, and quality controllability of traditional Chinese medicine preparations.

Epitranscriptomics focuses on the RNA-modification-mediated post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. The past decade has witnessed tremendous progress in our understanding of the landscapes and biological functions of RNA modifications, as prompted by the emergence of potent analytical approaches. The hematopoietic system provides a lifelong supply of blood cells, and gene expression is tightly controlled during the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The dysregulation of gene expression during hematopoiesis may lead to severe disorders, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Emerging evidence supports the involvement of the mRNA modification system in normal hematopoiesis and AML pathogenesis, which has led to the development of small-molecule inhibitors that target N6-methyladenosine (m 6A) modification machinery as treatments. Here, we summarize the latest findings and our most up-to-date information on the roles of m 6A and N7-methylguanine in both physiological and pathological conditions in the hematopoietic system. Furthermore, we will discuss the therapeutic potential and limitations of cancer treatments targeting m 6A.

Objective:To investigate the association of urinary cadmium levels with peripheral leukocyte classification counts among middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years in selected areas of China.Methods:The research was based on the survey of the impact of soil quality of agricultural land on human health in typical areas conducted in 2019-2020. A total of 5 600 middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years were included by using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method. Baseline characteristics of the subjects were collected and physical examinations were performed. Random midstream urine was collected to measure urinary cadmium and urinary creatinine and fasting venous blood was collected to measure the leukocyte count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count and eosinophil count. The linear mixed effect model was used to analyse the association of urinary cadmium levels with leukocyte classification counts, and the dose-response relationship between them was analyzed by using the restricted cubic spline (RCS) function.Results:The age of the subjects was (63.17±12.02) years; 2 851 (50.91%) were males; and the M ( Q 1, Q 3) of urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium levels was 2.69 (1.52, 4.69) μg/g·creatinine. After adjusting for confounding factors, the results of linear mixed effects model analysis showed that for each 1-unit increase in urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium level, the percentage change [% (95% CI)] of leukocyte count and lymphocyte count was -1.70% (-2.61%, -0.79%) and -1.57% (-2.86%, -0.26%), respectively. RCS function showed a negative linear relationship between urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium levels and leukocyte counts and lymphocyte counts, respectively (all Pnon-linear>0.05). Conclusion:Urinary cadmium levels are negatively associated with leukocyte count and lymphocyte count among middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years in selected areas of China.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of small-dose esketamine on the learning and memory ability of chronic sleep-deprived rats and the role of hippocampal amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate receptors (AMPARs).Methods:Forty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 4 months, weighing 200-280 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: normal control group (N group), chronic sleep deprivation group (SD group), chronic sleep deprivation+ esketamine group (SDK group) and chronic sleep deprivation + esketamine + AMPAR antagonist CNQX group (SDKI group). The sleep deprivation model was prepared by the modified multi-platform water environment method. For 3 consecutive days after developing the model, ketamine 10 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected in SDK group, and SDKI group received intraperitoneal injection of CNQX 1 mg/kg followed by ketamine 10 mg/kg. Morris water maze test was used to detect spatial learning and memory ability after the end of sleep deprivation or after administration. After the water maze test, rats were sacrificed, and the hippocampal tissue was obtained to detect the expression of hippocampal Homer1a mRNA (by quantitative polymerase chain reaction), Homer1a, metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) and AMPAR (by Western blot). The density of dendritic spines in hippocampal CA1 region was determined by Golgi staining. Results:Compared with N group, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant and the number of times the animals crossing the platform were decreased, the expression of Homer1a protein and mRNA and mGluR5 was up-regulated, the expression of AMPAR was down-regulated, and the density of dendritic spines in hippocampal CA1 region was decreased in SD group ( P<0.05). Compared with SD group, the escape latency was significantly shortened, the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant and the number of times the animals crossing the platform were increased, the expression of AMPAR was up-regulated, and the density of dendritic spines in hippocampal CA1 region was increased in SDK group ( P<0.05). Compared with SDK group, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant and the number of times the animals crossing the platform were decreased, the expression of AMPAR was down-regulated, and the density of dendritic spines in hippocampal CA1 region was decreased in SDKI group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of Homer1a protein and mRNA and mGluR5 among SD group, SDK group and SDKI group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Small-dose esketamine can improve the learning and memory ability of chronic sleep-deprived rats, and the mechanism may be related to up-regulation of the expression of hippocampal AMPARs.
