Objective To investigate the antioxidant activity of bamboo stem extracts and the therapeutic effect of bamboo stem water extract on oxidative inflammation induced by tert butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP) in human colon adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2). Methods In this study, ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP assays were used to determine the extracellular antioxidant activity of petroleum ether extract, ethyl acetate extract, n-butanol extract, 95% ethanol extract, and distilled water extract from bamboo stems. The human intestinal Caco-2 cell line was used as the model cell, and t-BHP was selected as the oxidative stress modeling agent. The CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability and the optimal oxidative damage concentration of t-BHP. The content of MDA, 8-OHdG, TNF-α and IL-1β were detected to assess antioxidant stress effect. Results The five extracts of bamboo all had certain antioxidant activity, among which the water extract of bamboo stem had the best comprehensive antioxidant activity with high cell viability in Caco-2 cells. The optimal modeling concentration of t-BHP was 200 μMol/L. The water extract of bamboo stem significantly reduced the content of oxidative stress related biomarkers and inflammatory factors in Caco-2 cells induced by t-BHP. Conclusion The stem extracts of bamboo in Xianning City have strong in vitro antioxidant activity. Among them, the water extract of bamboo stem has a protective effect on t-BHP induced oxidative damage in Caco-2 cells, suggesting that the water extract possesses a potential to be developed as new antioxidant products for clinical prevention and treatment of oxidative damage related diseases.

This article explores the interaction between aspirin and safflower yellow injection from the perspective of pharmacokinetics, combined with pharmacological indicators such as anticoagulation. Quantitative HPLC analysis was performed for the detection of salicylic acid in plasma samples, and the pharmacokinetic effects of aspirin in combination with safflower yellow injection on aspirin’s hydrolyzed product salicylic acid was evaluated. Thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto prostaglandin F1 in plasma were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and fully automated biochemical analyzer α (6-keto-PGF1) α）, and the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and serum creatinine (Scr) were tested to evaluate the anticoagulant effect and safety indicators after long-term combined use of the two drugs, including liver and kidney function and cardiac pathological examination. The results showed that, compared with the aspirin group, there was no significant difference (P>0.05) in the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters of rats with combined use of safflower yellow injection. In addition, the plasma TXB2 in the combination group was significantly reduced compared to the aspirin group (P<0.01), yet with no significant difference for 6-keto-PGF1 α (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the levels of serum BUN, Scr, AST, and ALT between the two groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). These results suggest that the combination of aspirin and safflower yellow injection does not cause significant change in the blood concentration of salicylic acid. It does not affect the antiplatelet effect of aspirin.

In recent years, studies have shown that exosomes can replace mesenchymal stem cell for chronic wound repair. However, exosomes have some problems such as poor targeting, low availability and low yield, so it has limited effect in the treatment of chronic wound. Maximizing the therapeutic benefits of exosomes is the primary challenge that needs to be overcome when used for chronic wound repair. Studies have shown that the treatment potential of exosomes can be further developed by pretreatment and engineering modification of exosomes. This article reviewed the research progress of exosome pretreatment and engineering modification in chronic wound repair, and provided reference for subsequent research and clinical application.

Background::T-cell-mediated immunity is crucial for the effective clearance of viral infection, but the T-cell-mediated immune responses that are induced by booster doses of inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH) remain unclear.Methods::Forty-five PLWH who had received antiretroviral therapy (ART) for more than two years and 29 healthy controls (HCs) at Beijing Youan Hospital were enrolled to assess the dynamic changes in T-cell responses between the day before the third vaccine dose (week 0) and 4 or 12 weeks (week 4 or week 12) after receiving the third dose of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Flow cytometry, enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISpot), and multiplex cytokines profiling were used to assess T-cell responses at the three timepoints in this study.Results::The results of the ELISpot and activation-induced marker (AIM) assays showed that SARS-CoV-2-specific T-cell responses were increased in both PLWH and HCs after the third dose of the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, and a similar magnitude of immune response was induced against the Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant compared to the wild-type strain. In detail, spike-specific T-cell responses (measured by the ELISpot assay for interferon γ [IFN-γ] release) in both PLWH and HCs significantly increased in week 4, and the spike-specific T-cell responses in HCs were significantly stronger than those in PLWH 4 weeks after the third vaccination. In the AIM assay, spike-specific CD4 + T-cell responses peaked in both PLWH and HCs in week 12. Additionally, significantly higher spike-specific CD8 + T-cell responses were induced in PLWH than in HCs in week 12. In PLWH, the release of the cytokines interleukin-2 (IL-2), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and IL-22 by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) that were stimulated with spike peptides increased in week 12. In addition, the levels of IL-4 and IL-5 were higher in PLWH than in HCs in week 12. Interestingly, the magnitude of SARS-CoV-2-specific T-cell responses in PLWH was negatively associated with the extent of CD8 + T-cell activation and exhaustion. In addition, positive correlations were observed between the magnitude of spike-specific T-cell responses (determined by measuring IFN-γ release by ELISpot) and the amounts of IL-4, IL-5, IL-2 and IL-17F. Conclusions::Our findings suggested that SARS-CoV-2-specific T-cell responses could be enhanced by the booster dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines and further illustrate the importance of additional vaccination for PLWH.

Objective:To compare the differences in prefrontal activation patterns between major depressive disorder and schizophrenia during the eye basic emotion discrimination task (EBEDT).Methods:Using functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) technology and block design, the changes of prefrontal lobe oxyhemoglobin (Oxy-Hb) concentrations under EBEDT in 40 patients with major depressive disorder, 47 patients with schizophrenia and 55 normal controls were compared. Subsequently, employing years of education as a covariate, an analysis of covariance was performed on the EBEDT behavioral results and the changes in prefrontal Oxy-Hb concentrations in the three groups.The statistical software was SPSS 25.0.Results:(1)The correct number of EBEDT in schizophrenia group (13.93±7.67) was significantly lower than that in major depressive disorder group (19.26±8.07) and normal control group (21.79±6.36)(both P<0.05), and the EBEDT reaction time in schizophrenia group ((3.97±1.77) s) was significantly longer than those in major depressive disorder group ((3.21±1.27) s) and normal control group ((2.63±0.62) s)(both P<0.05).(2)During the EBEDT task block, the normal control group showed increased activation levels in the frontal polar region, Broca's area, anterior motor cortex and supplementary motor area (SMA) compared with the control block( t=2.02-3.18, all P<0.05); and the schizophrenia group showed increased activation levels in the frontal eye field compared with the control block( t=2.26, P=0.03); while the major depressive disorder group exhibited decreased activation levels in the entire prefrontal lobe compared with the control block( t=-3.47--2.34, all P<0.05). (3)During the emotion recognition task of EBEDT, the activation levels of the frontal polar area (ch37), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (ch31), Broca's area (ch49, ch51, ch53), and SMA (ch1, ch47, ch52) were significantly different among the major depressive disorder, schizophrenia and normal controls( F=3.23-5.53, all P<0.05). Further pairwise comparisons showed that the activation levels in all the above pathways were lower in the major depressive disorder group than those in the normal control group, and the activation levels in Broca's area (ch53) and SMA area (ch52) were lower in the schizophrenia group than those in the normal control group, while the activation levels in the frontal polar area (ch37) and Broca's area (ch49) were lower in the major depressive disorder group than those in the schizophrenia group(all P<0.05). Conclusions:In EBEDT, the activation patterns of the prefrontal cortex are different between patients with major depressive disorder and patients with schizophrenia. Patients with major depressive disorder have a decrease in prefrontal cortex activation, while patients with schizophrenia have an increase in the frontal eye field activation.The activation levels in prefrontal cortex of both patients group are lower than that of normal controls. Meanwhile, the prefrontal cortex activation level of patients with major depressive disorder is lower than that of patients with schizophrenia.

‍Hepatitis E virus （HEV） is a pathogen for viral hepatitis and can be transmitted across species via animals. The incidence rate of hepatitis E caused by HEV infection ranks first among acute viral hepatitis worldwide， and now it has become a major public health issue that threatens human health. In recent years， more and more species have been identified as the natural hosts of HEV， and there are more routes for the interspecies transmission of HEV， which greatly inhibits the prevention and control of this virus. Therefore， this article reviews and discusses the advances in the interspecies transmission of HEV， so as to provide a reference for the prevention and control of HEV.
