Objective To prepare a postbiotic using soybean fermentation product of Lactobacillus paracasei TK1501 and evaluate its inhibitory effect against Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection in mice.Methods L.paracasei TK1501 was cultured for 32 h at 37℃in an anaerobic condition for solid substrate fermentation with a solid to water ratio of 1:1.5 in the substrate and an inoculation density of 5×107 CFU/mL.The postbiotic was isolated and purified using macroporous resin XAD-16N adsorption,cation exchange chromatography and HPLC,and its stability and antibacterial activity were assessed.The inhibitory effect of this postbiotic against Hp infection was evaluated in a mouse model with gastric mucosal Hp infection,which were treated with the postbiotic via gavage for 4 weeks at the dose of 0.02 or 0.1 mL.Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β of the mice were analyzed after the treatments,and gastric tissues of the mice were collected for HE staining.Results L.paracasei TK1501 postbiotic could be easily degraded by protease and had good thermal stability and tolerance to exposures to acid,base,and organic solvents.In the in vitro experiment,the postbiotic showed strong inhibitory effects in bacterial cultures of Staphylococcus aureus,Hp and other common pathogenic bacteria without obviously affecting the resident bacteria in the digestive tract.In the mouse models,treatment with the postbiotic at the dose of 0.1 mL significantly alleviated Hp infection and lowered the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β of the mice.Conclusion L.paracasei TK1501 postbiotic has strong inhibitory effects on Hp and Staphylococcus aureus but not on normal intestinal flora in mice.

Objective To investigate the effect of radiation on cardiomyocyte apoptosis and its related mechanism.Methods Rat H9C2 cardiomyocytes were divided into blank control group,X-ray irradiation group(X-ray group),X-ray irradiation+microRNA(miRNA)-134-5p inhibitor group(X-inhibitor group)and X-ray irradiation+miRNA-134-5p inhibitor negative control group(X-NC group).H9C2 cardiomyocytes were irradiated with 6 Gy X-ray,and the changes of various indexes were detected 48 h after irradiation.Cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8 assay.The apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33342 staining.The level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in cells was detected by DCFH-DA fluorescence probe.The mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 method.The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and the level of malondialdehyde(MDA)in cells were measured by kits.The expression of miRNA-134-5p was detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The protein expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),protein kinase B(Akt),phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt),Bcl2 and Bax was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the blank control group,in the X-ray group the levels of ROS and MDA were significantly increased,the activity of SOD was significantly decreased,the decreased percentage in mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly increased,the number of micronuclei of DNA damage was significantly increased,and the apoptosis rate was significantly increased(all P＜0.01).Compared with the X-ray group,all the indexes of the X-inhibitor group were reversed(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),while there was no significant difference in the above parameters in the X-NC group(all P＞0.05).Compared with the blank control group,the X-ray group had a significant increase in the miRNA-134-5p level and significant reductions in the protein level of BDNF,Bcl2/Bax ratio,and p-Akt/Akt ratio(all P＜0.01).Compared with the X-ray group,the X-inhibitor group had a significant reduction in the level of miRNA-134-5p and significant increases in the protein level of BDNF,Bcl2/Bax ratio,and p-Akt/Akt ratio(all P＜0.01),and there was no significant difference in all parameters in the X-NC group(all P＞0.05).Conclusion X-ray irradiation can induce oxidative stress,mitochondrial damage,and DNA damage,eventually leading to apoptosis in rat cardiomyocytes,and the mechanism may involve miRNA-134-5p/BDNF/Akt signaling pathway.

Recent trends suggest that Chinese herbal medicine formulas(CHM formulas)are promising treatments for complex diseases.To characterize the precise syndromes,precise diseases and precise targets of the precise targets between complex diseases and CHM formulas,we developed an artificial intelligence-based quantitative predictive algorithm(DeepTCM).DeepTCM has gone through multilevel model cali-bration and validation against a comprehensive set of herb and disease data so that it accurately captures the complex cellular signaling,molecular and theoretical levels of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).As an example,our model simulated the optimal CHM formulas for the treatment of coronary heart disease(CHD)with depression,and through model sensitivity analysis,we calculated the balanced scoring of the formulas.Furthermore,we constructed a biological knowledge graph representing interactions by associating herb-target and gene-disease interactions.Finally,we experimentally confirmed the thera-peutic effect and pharmacological mechanism of a novel model-predicted intervention in humans and mice.This novel multiscale model opened up a new avenue to combine"disease syndrome"and"macro micro"system modeling to facilitate translational research in CHM formulas.

Objective: To study the role of rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene in the intervention of childhood obesity, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating personalized intervention measures based on genetic background in children with obesity. Methods: From September 2018 to June 2019, a total of 393 children aged 8-10 years in Beijing were enrolled in a cluster randomized controlled trial. Eight schools were randomly allocated into intervention group and control group at a ratio of 1∶1. Saliva DNA samples were collected to detect rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene. The intervention group received a comprehensive intervention, while the control group received usual practice. Intervention measures included diet improvement, sports, school amd family sport. The obesity related indicators were measured at baseline and after the end of intervention 1 academic year. Multiple linear regression and Logistic regression were used to analyze the interaction between genes and intervention on obesity indicators. Results: In the intervention group, children with TT genotype of rs 12145833 of the SDCCAG 8 gene had less increase in systolic( β=4.56, 95%CI=1.84-7.28, P <0.01) and diastolic blood pressure( β=2.59, 95%CI=0.45-4.73, P <0.05) than those with GT and GG genotypes. In the control group, the systolic blood pressure of children with TT genotype increased more than those with GT and GG genotype( β=-2.86, 95%CI=-5.63--0.83, P <0.05). There was an interaction between rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene and intervention on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and body fat percentage in children( P <0.05). Conclusion Children with TT genotype of rs 12145833 in the SDCCAG 8 gene are more sensitive to obesity intervention than those with GG and GT genotypes, especially in the improvement of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and body fat percentage. Further trials to study the role of rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene in the intervention of childhood obesity among different ethnic populations are needed.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of eltrombopag combined with immunosuppressive therapy （IST） for severe aplastic anemia （SAA）， and to provide evidence-based basis for clinical treatment of SAA. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， Cochrane Library， ClinicalTrials.gov， VIP， CNKI and Wanfang data， randomized controlled trials （RCTs） and cohort studies about eltrombopag combined with IST （trial group） versus IST alone （control group） were collected from the inception to May 2023. After data extraction and quality evaluation （Cochrane manual 5.1.0） of included studies， meta-analysis， subgroup analysis， sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 12 studies were screened， including 1 344 patients. Compared with control group， objective remission rate （ORR） （RR＝1.34， 95%CI was 1.06-1.69， P＝0.01） and complete response rate （CRR） （RR＝1.88， 95%CI was 1.31-2.71， P＝ 0.000 6） at 3 months， ORR （RR＝1.33，95%CI was 1.23-1.43， P＜0.000 01） and CRR （RR＝1.88，95%CI was 1.57-2.25，P＜0.000 01） at 6 months were significantly increased in trial group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in ORR （RR＝0.99， 95%CI was 0.82-1.18， P＝0.88） and CRR （RR＝1.02， 95%CI was 0.78-1.34， P＝0.87） at 12 months， two-year overall survival （OS） rate （HR＝0.61， 95%CI was 0.31-1.22， P＝0.17）， two-year event-free survival （EFS） rate （HR＝0.81， 95%CI was 0.61-1.07， P＝0.14）， clone evolution rate（RR＝1.01， 95%CI was 0.51-2.00， P＝ 0.98） or the incidence of adverse drug reactions such as liver/renal insufficiency， rash （P＞0.05）. Results of subgroup analysis showed that ORR and CRR of trial group at 6 months were higher than those of the control group in RCT and the cohort study subgroups （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the two-year OS rate， two-year EFS rate or clone evolution rate between trial group and control group in the two subgroups （P＞0.05）. The results of sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis showed that the results of this study were robust and the possibility of publication bias was small. CONCLUSIONS The addition of eltrombopag in the IST regimen of SAA can improve the early hematological remission rate of patients， has no significant impact on short-term survival， and will not increase the occurrence of adverse drug reactions and clonal evolution.
