Precancerous lesions of gastric cancer （PLGC） are a group of pathological changes caused by abnormalities in the structure， morphology， and differentiation of gastric mucosal epithelial cells. Since the early symptoms are hidden and non-specific， PLGC is not easy to be diagnosed and it has often developed into intermediate or advanced gastric cancer once being diagnosed and missed the best time for treatment. Accordingly， the incidence of this disease is increasing year by year， which lifts a heavy burden on the patients. The pathogenesis of PLGC is complex， involving inflammatory microenvironment， bile reflux， glycolysis， autophagy， and apoptosis. Currently， PLGC is mainly treated with anti-inflammatory and endoscopic therapies， which are difficult to curb the development of PLGC. Therefore， seeking a safe and effective therapy is an important topic of modern research. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， characterized by treatment based on syndrome differentiation and a holistic view， exerts effects via multiple pathways， mechanisms， and targets. Recent studies have confirmed that TCM can regulate the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin （PI3K/Akt/mTOR）， Wnt/β-catenin， Sonic Hedgehog， nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription （JAK/STAT）， hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α）， neurogenic locus notch homolog protein （Notch）， nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2） and other signaling pathways. By targeting these pathways， TCM can inhibit aerobic glycolysis， reduce oxidative stress， repair the inflammatory microenvironment， regulate cellular autophagy， and promote vascular normalization， thereby delaying or reversing PLGC. However， few researchers have systematically summarized the TCM regulation of PLGC-associated pathways. By reviewing the relevant articles at home and abroad， this paper summarized the roles of the above signaling pathways in the development of PLGC and the research progress in the regulation of signaling pathways by TCM in the treatment of PLGC， with a view to providing a new theoretical basis for the clinical research on PLGC and the drug development for this disease.

Objective To investigate the involvement of phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting protein-2(PACS-2)in mitochondrial function and apoptosis in N2a/APP695swe cells and further explore the role and significance of PACS-2 in the development of Alzheimer's disease(AD).Methods The CCK8 method was used to analyze the cell survival rate of N2a/APP695swe cells treated with different concentrations of tetrahydroxy stilbene glycoside(TSG)for 48h and to select the appropriate concentration of TSG for subsequent experiments.N2a/WT cells and N2a/APP695swe cells were routinely cultured in vitro,and the experimental cells were divided into 3 groups:blank control group(WT group):N2a/WT cells;model group(APP group):N2a/APP695swe cells;treatment group(TSG group):N2a/APP695swe cells with appropriate concentrations of TSG intervention.TUNEL method to observe apoptosis by fluorescence microscopy;JC-1 method for flow detection of cellular mitochondrial membrane potential;WB to detect protein expression of PACS-2;RT-qPCR to detect PACS-2 mRNA expression.Results CCK8 method was used to analyze the cell survival rate of different concentrations of TSG acting on cells after 48h:the protective effect of 100 μmol/L TSG was the most significant and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The TUNEL method of fluorescence microscopy observed the apoptosis:compared with the WT group,the apoptosis rate of APP group was increased,compared with the APP group,the apoptosis rate of TSG group was decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The JC-1 method was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential of cells:compared with the WT group,the membrane potential of APP group was decreased,compared with the APP group,the membrane potential of TSG group was increased,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);Western blot(WB)detection of PACS-2 protein expression:compared with the WT group,PACS-2 expression was significantly higher in the APP group,and compared with the APP group,PACS-2 expression was significantly lower in the TSG group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05);The RT-qPCR detected the mRNA expression of PACS-2:the expression of PACS-2 was elevated in the APP group compared with the WT group and decreased in the TSG group compared with the APP group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion PACS-2 has an important role in the development of AD,and its upregulation may promote the development of AD.The cerebroprotective drug TSG may exert cytoprotective effects by downregulating PACS-2 to inhibit apoptosis and improve mitochondrial function in AD model cells.

Objective:To explore the gene microarray of patients with ankylosing spondylitis in GEO database by using various bioinformatics methods, and to explore the possible targets and mechanisms of action.Methods:The GEO database was searched with "ankylosing spondylitis" the keyword, and the expression profile of genes related to AS was selected as the research object. Standard difference analysis, weighted co-expression analysis and gene set enrichment analysis were conducted to construct the disease set. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed on the disease sets. The NCC algorithm identifies the first five key genes. THP-1 cells were implanted into RPMI-1640 culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum to multiply and construct the cell model of AS in vitro. The expression levels of 5 key genes were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. The experimental measurement data were expressed as mean± standard deviation, and the t test was used in comparison between the two groups. Results:One thousand six hundred and sixty seven disease genes were analyzed, functional annotation was mainly concentrated in 689 molecular components of cytoplasmic ribosomes, ribosomal subunits, ribosomes, cytoplasmic large ribosomal subunits, the structural composition of ribosomal REDOX enzyme activity, 1 002 molecular functions of NADH dehydrogenase activity, NADH dehydrogenase activity, and 5 764 molecular processes of mRNA catabolism and RNA catabolism The physical process involved 1 002 signaling pathways involved in Alzheimer′s disease, Prion disease, Parkinson′s disease, and the first 5 key genes were identified as RPS11, RPL4, RPL37A, RPS23, and RPS9. The experimental results were obtained by t test. The results showed that TNF-α mRNA ( t=5.59, P=0.001) and protein ( t=20.14, P<0.001) were significantly increased, indicating that LPS had induced inflammatory response in THP-1 cells, while RPL37AmRNA ( t=5.87, P=0.001), RPS11 mRNA ( t=3.88, P=0.008), RPS23 mRNA ( t=2.64, P=0.038), RPL37A protein ( t=3.18, P=0.030), RPS11 protein ( t=11.26, P<0.001), RPS23 protein ( t=5.64, P<0.001), increased, while RPS9 mRNA ( t=3.16, P=0.020), RPL4 mRNA ( t=2.54, P=0.044), RPS9 protein ( t=5.85, P<0.001) and RPL4 ( t=2.93, P=0.040) protein expressions decreased. RPL23 stimulated the joint synovial tissue to produce effect-T lymphocytes and release a large number of IL-2 and other inflammatory cytokines. RPS9 acts on the early stages of ribosomogenesis, and knocking down RPS9 reduced overall protein synthesis. RPL4 interacted with TTC22 protein to enhance the binding of WTAP mRNA to RPL4, which was associated with immune diseases. The nucleoprotein OGFOD1 catalyzed the hydroxylation of RPS23 and participated in the inflammatory process. The chromosome conformation confirmed the single nucleotide polymorphism function of IL23R genomic locus in AS disease. Conclusion:Ribosomal protein may be an important target for exploring the mechanism of AS inflammation.

Objectives:To investigate the relationship between visceral adipose index and glomerular filtration rate in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:A total of 1 036 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who received treatment in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from May 2017 to May 2018 were included in this study. The visceral adipose index was detected using a bioresistance assay. These patients were divided into four groups using the quartile method: Visceral adipose index < 8.10 (q1 group, n = 246), 9.60 > visceral adipose index ≥ 8.10 (q2 group, n = 64), 11.10 > visceral adipose index ≥ 9.60 (q3 group, n = 423), visceral adipose index ≥ 11.10 (q4 group, n = 233). One-way analysis of variance was performed to compare the differences among groups. Partial correlation and multiple regression were used to analyze the correlation between body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, waist-to-hip ratio, body fat content, visceral adipose index, and urinary microalbumin and glomerular filtration rate. Results:With the increase in the visceral adipose index, the glomerular filtration rate gradually decreased. The glomerular filtration rate in the q1, q2, q3, q4 groups was (112.19 ± 31.74) mL·min -1·1.73 m -2, (106.14 ± 28.26) mL·min -1·1.73 m -2, (104.73 ± 23.63) mL·min -1·1.73 m -2, (103.40 ± 27.51) mL·min -1·1.73 m -2, respectively. In the female group, with the increase in visceral adipose index, the glomerular filtration rate decreased gradually. After controlling for age, sex, diabetes, and hypertension, the visceral adipose index was significantly correlated with the glomerular filtration rate ( r = -0.10, P < 0.001). Multiple regression analysis showed that visceral adipose index and waist-to-height ratio were closely related to glomerular filtration rate ( F = 6.00, P < 0.001). Conclusion:With the increase of visceral adipose index, body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, waist-to-hip ratio, body fat content, and urinary microalbumin increased gradually. When the visceral adipose index is greater than 9.60, the glomerular filtration rate is significantly decreased. Therefore, it is suggested to adopt various methods to evaluate obesity in clinical work, and visceral fat index should be paid more attention, especially when the visceral fat index is greater than 9.60.

Objective:To preliminarily investigate the effect of blue light on the biological activity of human skin keratinocytes, fibroblasts and melanocytes.Methods:Discarded foreskin tissues were collected from 10 healthy children aged from 3 to 12 years after circumcision surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from June 2021 to December 2021. After epidermis-dermis separation, selective culture was performed to isolate keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and melanocytes. According to the pre-experiment results, the above three types of cells were irradiated with 440 - 450 nm blue light at doses of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 J/cm 2, and then continued to be cultured for 0, 6, 24, and 48 hours. Cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) assay was performed to evaluate cellular proliferative activity at each time point, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect levels of interleukin (IL) -18, IL-33, nerve growth factor (NGF), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) secreted by keratinocytes, as well as levels of IL-33 and keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) secreted by fibroblasts, NaOH lysis method to determine melanin synthesis rates in melanocytes, and Western blot analysis to determine the relative expression of tyrosinase (TYR), tyrosine-related protease 1 (TRP-1) and dopachrome isomerase (DCT) in melanocytes. Two-way analysis of variance was used to analyze group effects, time effects and interaction effects. Results:After irradiation with blue light, the cellular proliferative activity significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points in keratinocytes ( Ftime = 516.20, Fdose = 421.20, Finteraction = 25.05, all P < 0.003), fibroblasts ( Ftime = 129.30, Fdose = 477.80, Finteraction = 10.91, all P < 0.003), and melanocytes ( Ftime = 77.61, Fdose = 138.70, Finteraction = 3.50, all P < 0.003) ; immediately after irradiation, the proliferative activity of keratinocytes and fibroblasts was significantly lower in the 20 - 40 J/cm 2 blue light group than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group (all P < 0.003), and the proliferative activity of melanocytes was significantly higher in the 5 J/cm 2 blue light group than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group ( P < 0.003) ; the proliferative activity of the 3 types of cells showed decreasing trends with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. ELISA showed that the concentrations of IL-18, IL-33, NGF, and GM-CSF secreted by keratinocytes, as well as the concentrations of IL-33 and KGF secreted by fibroblasts, tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. The melanin synthesis rates in melanocytes significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points ( Ftime = 833.50, Fdose = 249.40, Finteraction = 81.38, all P < 0.003) ; during 0 - 24 hours after blue light irradiation, the melanin synthesis rates tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and time; during 24 - 48 hours, the melanin synthesis rates showed decreasing trends with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time compared with that at 24 hours after irradiation; 24 hours after irradiation, the melanin synthesis rates were significantly higher in the 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 J/cm 2 blue light groups (159.50% ± 10.88%, 218.76% ± 8.49%, 333.72% ± 7.72%, 393.29% ± 6.00%, 427.21% ± 8.39%, respectively) than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group (102.29% ± 6.57%, all P < 0.003). The relative expression of TYR ( Ftime = 67.94, Fdose = 28.99, Finteraction = 3.71, all P < 0.003), TRP-1 ( Ftime = 21.73, Fdose = 8.38, both P < 0.003) and DCT ( Ftime = 34.51, Fdose = 11.79, both P < 0.003) in melanocytes significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points, and tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. Conclusion:Blue light irradiation at doses of 5 - 40 J/cm 2 could inhibit the proliferative activity of human skin keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and melanocytes, and the inhibitory effect tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses, except an enhancing effect on the proliferative activity of melanocytes observed immediately after irradiation with blue light at 5 J/cm 2; additionally, blue light irradiation at 5 - 40 J/cm 2 could enhance the expression of melanin synthesis-related enzymes in melanocytes, and increase the melanin synthesis rate in melanocytes over a short period of time.

Objective:To investigate the Correlation between ADC combined with serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP), It provides scientific basis for early prediction of DEACMP.Methods:According to the design principle of case-control study, the data of acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) patients admitted to Shandong Provincial Hospital from December 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively selected. Among them, patients with DEACMP were selected as the case group, without DEACMP were used as the control group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on the two groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of ADC combined with CRP as a combined predictor for disease.Results:A total of 89 patients with ACOP were included, including 33 patients with DEACMP and 56 patients without DEACMP. There were no significant differences in gender, age, smoking, drinking, and underlying diseases (hypertension, coronary heart disease) between groups ( P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that white blood cell count (WBC) ( OR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.19-2.26, P=0.003), CRP ( OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.03-1.45, P=0.019) and ADC value of central semiovale white matter ( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P=0.010) were associated with DEACMP in patients with ACOP. The ROC curve results showed that the area under the ROC of ADC combined with CRP in the center of semiovale was 0.765 (95% CI: 0.656-0.845), the specificity was 87.9%, the sensitivity was 23.2%, and the cut-off value was 3.5°. Conclusions:WBC, CRP and ADC value of central semiovale are independent factors for DEACMP. ADC value of central semiovale combined with CRP has more clinical value in the early diagnosis of DEACMP. For ACOP patients with DEACMP triggering factors, the diagnosis and treatment awareness of early screening of brain magnetic resonance imaging should be strengthened to avoid DEACMP.

Objective To study the correlation between serum cysteine aspartate proteinase 2(CASP2)level and neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA)score in children with hypoxic-ischemic en-cephalopathy(HIE),and the value of CASP2 in evaluating prognosis.Methods A total of 114 neonates with HIE in this hospital from January 2018 to April 2022 were selected as HIE group.According to the severity of the disease,the neonates were divided into mild group(40 cases),moderate group(52 cases)and severe group(22 cases).According to the prognosis after 6 months of treatment,114 neonates with HIE were divided into poor prognosis group(26 cases)and good prognosis group(88 cases).At the same time,106 healthy neonates born in the hospital were selected as the control group.The NBNA score was recorded,and the serum CASP2 level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the corre-lation between serum CASP2 level and NBNA score in HIE children.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of NBNA score and serum CASP2 level for the prognosis of ne-onates with HIE.Results The level of serum CASP2 in HIE group was higher than that in control group,and the NBNA score was lower than that in control group(P<0.05).The level of serum CASP2 in the severe group was higher than that of the moderate group and mild group,and the NBNA score was lower than that of moderate group and mild group(P<0.05).The level of serum CASP2 in the moderate group was higher than that of the mild group,and the NBNA score was lower than that of the mild group(P<0.05).The NBNA score was negatively correlated with the serum level of CASP2 in the children with HIE(r=-0.608,P<0.05).The poor prognosis group had a significantly higher serum level of CASP2 and a significantly lower NBNA score than the good prognosis group(P<0.05).The serum level of CASP2 and NBNA score separate and joint area under the curve of the poor children with HIE prognosis were 0.875(95%CI 0.797-0.952),0.748(95%CI 0.639-0.857),0.927(95%CI 0.873-0.981).Conclusion The level of serum CASP2 increases with the severity of HIE,and is closely related to the NBNA score,which has an important prognostic value.
