Co-load of silybin and doxorubicin by MoS2 nanosheets for synergetic chemotherapy and photothermal therapy of lung cancer / 药学学报

The active ingredient of traditional Chinese medicine, silybin (SBN), can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and enhance the anticancer effect of doxorubicin (DOX). However, due to non-targeting and short half-life of SBN and DOX, as well as different administration routes and pharmacokinetic processes, this combination drug cannot act on the tumor in the set order, seriously eliminating the synergistic effect between them and limiting the effect in vivo. Therefore, we intended to construct a nano-delivery system based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), modified by polyethylene glycol (PEG) and sialic acid (SA), and co-loaded with SBN and DOX. The system induced the release of combined drugs under the dual-stimulation of pH and near infra-red (NIR), increased the free concentration of intracellular drugs, so as to achieve the synergistic effect between them. The animal welfare and experimental procedures were in accordance with the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. MoS2-PEG-SA-SBN/DOX circulated in vivo, and effectively accumulated at tumor sites through enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR) and SA-mediated active targeting. Under near infrared light irradiation, MoS2-PEG-SA-SBN/DOX realized the combination of synergistic chemotherapy and photothermal therapy for tumor, thus achieving excellent anti-tumor effect in vivo. This study can provide a new idea and strategy for the clinical treatment of lung cancer. Taken together, MoS2-PEG-SA-SBN/DOX can offer a new idea and strategy for the clinical treatment of lung cancer.

Hepatotoxicity and mechanism of Rhododendri Mollis Flos based on zebrafish model / 中国中药杂志

This study used the zebrafish model to explore the hepatotoxicity of Rhododendri Mollis Flos(RMF). The mortality was calculated according to the number of the survival of zebrafish larvae 4 days after fertilization under different concentration of RMF, and the dose-toxicity curve was fitted to preliminarily evaluate the toxicity of RMF. The liver phenotypes under the sublethal concentration of RMF in the treatment group and the blank control group were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining and acridine orange(AO) staining. Meanwhile, the activities of alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were determined to confirm the hepatotoxicity of RMF. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(real-time PCR) and Western blot were used to determine the expressions of genes and proteins in zebrafish larvae. Gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry(GC-TOF-MS) was used to conduct untargeted metabolomics testing to explore the mechanism. The results showed that the toxicity of RMF to zebrafish larvae was dose-dependent, with 1 100 μg·mL~(-1) of the absolute lethal concentration and 448 μg·mL~(-1) of sublethal concentration. The hepatocyte apoptosis and degeneration appeared in the zebrafish larvae under the sublethal concentration of RMF. The content of ALT and AST in zebrafish larvae at the end of the experiment was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner. Under the sublethal concentration, the expressions of genes and proteins related to apoptosis in zebrafish larvae were significantly increased as compared with the blank control group. The results of untargeted metabolomics showed that the important metabolites related to the he-patotoxicity of RMF were mainly enriched in alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and other pathways. In conclusion, it is inferred that RMF has certain hepatotoxicity to zebrafish larvae, and its mechanism may be related to apoptosis.

Application of live biotherapeutic products and perspective in the treatment of inherited metabolic disease / 生物工程学报

Live biotherapeutic products (LBPs) refer to the living bacteria derived from human body intestinal gut or in nature that can be used to treat the human disease. However, the naturally screened living bacteria have some disadvantages, such as deficient therapeutic effect and great divergence, which fall short of the personalized diagnosis and treatment needs. In recent years, with the development of synthetic biology, researchers have designed and constructed several engineered strains that can respond to external complex environmental signals, which speeded up the process of development and application of LBPs. Recombinant LBPs modified by gene editing can have therapeutic effect on specific diseases. Inherited metabolic disease is a type of disease that causes a series of clinical symptoms due to the genetic defect of some enzymes in the body, which may cause abnormal metabolism the corresponding metabolites. Therefore, the use of synthetic biology to design LBPs targeting specific defective enzymes will be promising for the treatment of inherited metabolic defects in the future. This review summarizes the clinic applications of LBPs and its potential for the treatment of inherited metabolic defects.

Quercetin exhibits neuroprotective effect by reduc-ing amyloid precursor protein expression and oxida-tive stress in Neuro2a/APPswe cell model / 中国药理学与毒理学杂志

OBJECTIVE The abnormal amyloid-β(Aβ)and oxidative stress assiociated with the progression of Alzheimer disease(AD).Quercetin has been reported to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in neurodegenerative disorders.In this present study,we designed to characterize the mechanisms by which quer-cetin exerts neuroprotective effects in murine neuroblas-toma N2a cells stably expressing human Swedish mutant amyloid precursor protein(N2a/APP).METHODS N2a/APP cells were treated with quercetin at concentrations of 10,20 and 50 μ mol·L-1 for 24 h.Cell viability was examined with CCK-8 assays.The protein levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were detected by Western blotting.Intra-cellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)was detected by a fluorescent probe 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA).The mitochondrial membrane potential(Δψ m)in N2a/APP cells was detected by using JC-1 staining method.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the generation of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)and 4-hydroxynonenal(4-HNE).RESULTS Quercetin attenuated the enhancement of p-ERK1/2,reductions of p-Akt,and decreased levels of APP expression.More-over,quercetin alleviated loss of mitochondria membrane potential(MMP)since it attenuates these oxidative stress,as reflected in the levels of ROS,4-HNE and 8-OHdG,was elevated in N2a/APP cells and these effects were again ameliorated by quercetin.CONCLUSION Neuroprotection by quercetin in N2a/APP cells involves normalizing the impaired mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress via inactivation of the ERK1/2 and activation of the Akt pathways.

Bavachin induces apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells through Gadd45a via the MAPK signaling pathway / 中国天然药物

Bavachin is a dihydroflavonoid compound isolated from Psoralea corylifolia, and exhibits anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and lipid-lowering activities. Recent attention has gradually drawn on bavachin-induced apoptosis in many human cancer cell lines. However, the anti-cancer effects and related mechanisms in colorectal cancer remain unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of bavachin on colorectal cancer in vivo and in vitro. The results showed that bavachin inhibited the proliferation of human colorectal cancer cells and induce apoptosis. These changes were mediated by activating the MAPK signaling pathway, which significantly up-regulated the expression of Gadd45a. Furthermore, Gadd45a silencing obviously attenuated bavachin-mediated cell apoptosis. Inhibition of the MAPK signaling pathway by JNK/ERK/p38 inhibitors also weakened the up-regulation of Gadd45a by bavachin. The anticancer effect of bavachin was also validated using a mouse xenograft model of human colorectal cancer. In conclusion, these findings suggest that bavachin induces the apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells through activating the MAPK signaling pathway.

Experimental study of miR-26a regulating CTGF expression in radiation-induced heart disease / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

Objective:To investigate the regulatory effect of miR-26a in radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) mice.Methods:C57/BL6 mice were used to establish RIHD models. The cardiac function, fibrosis, the expression levels of collagen 1 (COL1) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), and miR-26a were detected in RIHD mice. Whether CTGF was the target gene of miR-26a was verified by dual luciferase kit. Moreover, cardiac fibroblasts were transfected with miR-26a up and miR-26a down lentivirus vectors to construct the miR-26a overexpression and underexpression cell models. The expression of CTGF, proliferation, and apoptosis of cardiac fibroblasts were detected.Results:In the RIHD mice, heart function was decreased, myocardial fibrosis was remodeled, the expression levels of COL1 and CTGF were up-regulated, and the expression level of miR-26a was down-regulated. Dual luciferase reporter assay confirmed that CTGF was the target gene regulated by miR-26a. Overexpression of miR-26a could inhibit the expression of CTGF, suppress the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts, promote cell apoptosis and secrete collagen. Underexpression of miR-26a yielded the opposite results.Conclusion:MiR-26a affects the function of cardiac fibroblasts by targeting CTGF and probably mediates the process of radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis, which may become a new regulatory target of RIHD.

Ulnar-Mammary syndrome with TBX3 gene mutation in a Chinese family: A case report and literature review / 中南大学学报(医学版)

Ulnar-Mammary syndrome (UMS) is a rare monogenic disorder caused by mutations of the TBX3 gene. This paper reported a family of UMS. The proband, a 15-year old man, was presented with mammary gland dysplasia, ulnar limb defect, short stature, and delayed growth. Whole exome sequencing revealed a 1294_1301dup mutation in exon 6 of the TBX3 gene. Sanger sequencing was used to verify other members of the family, which suggested his mother also carried the same mutation, but merely resulting in the dysplasia of her left little finger. Notably, unilateral finger involvement without any systemic organ involvement was unusual in UMS patients. The proband then was treated with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). After a year and a half, his height and secondary sexual characteristics were significantly improved. The clinical manifestations of the disease are highly heterogeneous, which is easy to be misdiagnosed and missed. When the diagnosis is unclear, genetic testing is helpful for auxiliary diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription on the ultrastructure of hepatocyte mitochondria in a rat model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Methods A total of 48 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group, Yishanfu group, and Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription group, with 12 rats in each group. The rats in the model group and the drug groups were administered and modeled since week 2; the rats in the blank group were given normal diet, and those in the other three groups were given high-fat diet. Based on dose conversion between human and animal, the equivalent dose of Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription was 1.26 g/100 g body weight, and the equivalent dose of polyene phosphatidylcholine capsules (Yishanfu) was 0.014 18 g/100 g body weight. The rats in the model group were given 0.9% sodium chloride by gavage, those in the Yishanfu group were given polyene phosphatidylcholine suspension by gavage, and those in the traditional Chinese medicine group were given the granules of Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription by gavage, once a day for 10 consecutive weeks. A transmission electron microscope was used to observe liver ultrastructure and perform a quantitative analysis. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups; for further pairwise comparison, the least significant difference t -test was used for data with homogeneity of variance, and the Dunnett's T3 was used for data with heterogeneity of variance. Results The model group had a large number of lipid droplets accumulated in hepatocytes, changes in mitochondrial morphology and structure, and reductions in the number of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. The Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription group had a significant reduction in lipid droplets in hepatocytes and significant increases in the number of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum compared with the model group, with intact mitochondrial membrane and structure. The Yishanfu group had a reduction in lipid droplets in hepatocytes, an increase in the number of mitochondria, and a reduction in the number of endoplasmic reticulum, with relatively intact mitochondrial membrane and structure. The quantitative analysis showed that compared with the blank group, the model group had a significant increase in the area of lipid droplets and a significant reduction in mitochondria, with a significant difference in mitochondrial density between the two groups (all P < 0.01); after drug intervention, the Yishanfu group had a significant reduction in the area of lipid droplets and a significant increase in the number of mitochondria, with a significant difference in mitochondrial density between the Yishanfu group and the model group (all P < 0.01); compared with the Yishanfu group, the traditional Chinese medicine group had a significantly greater reduction in the area of lipid droplets and a significant increase in the number of mitochondria, with a significant difference in mitochondrial density between the two groups (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Huatan Qushi Huoxue prescription can improve lipid accumulation, increase mitochondrial density, and protect mitochondrial structure and function, with a better clinical effect than Yishanfu.

Exploring the therapeutic mechanism of Longqi Fang for diabetic kidney disease based on network pharmacology and verification in rats / 南方医科大学学报

OBJECTIVE@#To study the therapeutic mechanism of Longqi Fang (LQF) for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) based on GEO database and network pharmacology.@*METHODS@#LQF and DKD targets were obtained using the databases including GEO, TCMSP, CNKI, ChemDraw, and SwissTarget Prediction, and LQF-DKD intersection targets were obtained with VENNY. String was used for protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis, and R package for KEGG and GO enrichment analysis. Cytoscape 3.7.2 software Network graphs were constructed. The results of network pharmacology analysis were verified in SD rat models of DKD by daily treatment of the rats with LQF at low (1 g/kg), medium (2 g/kg), and high (2 g/kg) doses, and kidney pathology was observed with HE staining and the changes in renal function were assessed. Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of NF-κB and p-NF-κB proteins.@*RESULTS@#We identified 760 main targets of LQF, and obtained 1026 differential genes using GEO database and 61 LQF-DKD intersection targets using Venny database. The core targets obtained through PPI network analysis included Myc, EGF, CASP3, VEGFA, CCL2, SPP1, VCAM1 and ICAM1. Go analysis showed that LQF affects mainly nuclear receptor activity and ligand activated transcription factor activity. KEGG analysis showed that LQF affects inflammatory signaling pathways by interfering with NF-κB, TNF, and PI3K-AKT. In rat models of DKD, treatment with LQF resulted in significant improvements of the renal functions (P < 0.05) and glomerular and tubular structure and arrangement in a dose-dependent manner. Western blotting results showed that LQF dose-dependently downregulated NF-κB and p-NF-κB expressions in the rat models.@*CONCLUSION@#The therapeutic mechanism of LQF for DKD involves multiple components, targets and signal pathways that mediate an inhibitory effect on NF-κB signaling pathway to protect the renal function.

Objective:To investigate the regulatory role of microRNA in radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) in mice and provide a new strategy for its treatment.Methods:Based on the Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE147241), which includes normal heart tissue and irradiation heart tissue, we conducted bioinformatics research and analysis to determine the differentially-expressed genes. Then, thirty male C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into the control group, irradiation group and miR-133a overexpression intervention group. The heart received single dose of X-ray 20 Gy in the irradiation group and miR-133a overexpression intervention group, but not in the control group, and then fed for 16 weeks. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography. Myocardial fibrosis was detected by Masson staining. The expression levels of miR-133a, CTGF, COL-1 and COL-3 mRNA were detected by qRT-PCR. The expression levels of CTGF, COL-1 and COL-3 proteins were detected by western blot.Results:miR-133a was the differentially-expressed gene between the irradiation and control groups. Overexpression of miR-133a could mitigate the decrease in cardiac function and increase in myocardial collagen content ( P<0.01). Meantime, overexpression of miR-133a could down-regulate the expression levels of CTGF, COL-1, COL-3 mRNA and protein ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Radiation increases the synthesis of collagen and leads to myocardial fibrosis remodeling. Overexpression of miR-133a can alleviate the radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis.

Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group, ranitidine group and low-dose, medium-dose, high-dose FD 95% alcohol extract groups (150, 300, 600 mg/kg). The corresponding drugs were administrated by gavage for The gastric ulcer model was induced by intragastric administration of anhydrous ethanol. The gastric ulcer area and ulcer inhibition rate of rats were measured in each group; the degree of gastricmucosal damage was observed by scanning electron microscopy; the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β in serum and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) in gastric tissues were detected by ELISA method. : 95% alcohol extract of FD had the strongest protective effect on proliferation of GES-1 cells. In animal experiments, compared with the normal control group, a large area of ulcers appeared on the gastric mucosa in the model control group, while the ulcer areas of the FD groups and ranitidine group were significantly smaller than that of the model control group (all <0.05). Compared with the model control group, FD groups and ranitidine group significantly reduced the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 in serum and the MDA content in the gastric tissues, and increased the activity of SOD, CAT and GSH in gastric tissues (all <0.05). : The 95% alcohol extract of FD can reduce the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in serum and the content of MDA in gastric tissues, and increase the activity of SOD, CAT and GSH in gastric tissues to achieve the protective effect against gastric ulcer.

Study on TYR gene variant from a pedigree with oculocutaneous albinism / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze gene variants in a Chinese pedigree with oculocutaneous albinism (OCA).@*METHODS@#Gene sequencing of the proband and his parents was performed using chip capture high-throughput sequencing and Sanger sequencing techniques, and PolyPhen-2, SIFT, MutationTaster, and FATHMM software were used to predict the function of new variants. At the same time,the pedigree and variant genes of 4 albinism patients from this pedigree were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Sequencing results showed that the proband's TYR gene (NM_000372) has c.230G>A (p.Arg77Gln) and c.120_121insG (p.Asp42GlyfsTer35) compound heterozygous variants. The proband's father carries c.230G>A heterozygous variant, and the mother carries c.120_121insG heterozygous variant, indicating that the proband's two variants are from his father and mother. The former is a known missense variant, which can cause abnormal or loss of the original function of the protein polypeptide chain. The latter c.120_121insG(p.Asp42GlyfsTer35) is an unreported frameshift variant of the TYR gene subregion (EX1; CDS1). PolyPhen-2, SIFT, MutationTaster and FATHMM predictions are all prompted as "harmful variants". This variant caused the amino acid encoded protein to terminate prematurely, producing a truncated protein, which eventually formed a 76-amino acid short-type TYR protein instead of the 529-amino acid wild-type TYR protein. Through the pedigree analysis, the four patients in the pedigree are all of the same type of compound heterozygous variants, and the disease-causing genes are all from the patient's parents. They belong to a special form of consanguineous marriage within 5 generations.@*CONCLUSION@#The compound heterozygous variants of c.230G>A (p.Arg77Gln) and c.120_121insG (p.Asp42GlyfsTer35) of the TYR gene may underlie the disease in this pedigree. The gene sequencing results enrich the variant spectrum of the TYR gene, and has facilitated molecular diagnosis for the patient.

Mechanism of estrogen against liver fibrosis in postmenopausal women with chronic liver disease / 临床肝胆病杂志

Metabolic disorders are observed in women after menopause, and the postmenopausal women suffering from chronic liver diseases have an increased risk of progression to liver fibrosis, with a higher risk than male patients of the same age, which may be associated with the decline of ovarian function and the reduction of estrogen level after menopause. This article summarizes the research advances in the molecular mechanism of progression to liver fibrosis from the aspects of estrogen and oxidative stress, activation of hepatic stellate cells, accumulation of extracellular matrix, and immune regulation. It is pointed out supplementation with an appropriate amount of estrogen in the perimenopausal period and the early menopausal period can reduce the risk of liver fibrosis and delay or even reverse the process of liver fibrosis, thereby improving quality of life and prolonging survival time in elderly female patients.

There was significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities among different age groups (χ 2=185.959, P < 0.01); and with the increase of age, the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities showed an upward trend (χ 2trend=173.576, P < 0.01). There was significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities in adults among different prefecture-level cities (χ 2=108.487, P < 0.01); but there was no significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities between urban and rural (χ 2=0.103, P > 0.05). Conclusions:The main thyroid structural abnormalities in Heilongjiang Province are focal nodular lesions. The detection rate of women is higher than that of men, and the older the age, the higher the detection rate. There are differences in the detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities in adults of different prefecture-level cities, but there is no significant difference between urban and rural.

Current status of drug treatment and construction of medical cooperation system for echinococcosis patients in Jimusar County, Changji Prefecture, Xinjiang / 中华地方病学杂志

Objective:To understand the drug treatment status of echinococcosis patients in Jimusar County, Changji Prefecture, Xinjiang, and to explore the construction of medical cooperation system for echinococcosis patients, and to provide reference for optimization and popularization of medical cooperation system.Methods:Data of echinococcosis patients registered in Jimusar Center for Disease Control and Prevention from 2009 to 2018 were collected. The data of patients' medical records and follow-up information were collected by the principle of double entry. The research methods of combining quantitative and qualitative methods were applied to investigate the baseline of patient prevention and treatment system (including regional distribution, education level, recurrence, follow-up medication, etc). Follow-up was conducted on the whole treatment process of echinococcosis patients in the pilot counties, and comparative analysis was made on the treatment situation before and after the use of medical cooperation system. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the indicators that might affect the follow-up effect. Semistructured questionnaire survey was used to analyze the implementation effect of the medical cooperation system.Results:Patients were mainly distributed in rural areas (81.48%, 154/189), mostly in high schools and below (94.18%, 178/189), 39.68% (75/189) were relapsed and treated again, and 68.25% (129/189) were treated with non-standard medication. Influencing factors of effective follow-up medication in echinococcosis patients showed that patients with no side effects, abnormal liver function during follow-up, two or more times of B-ultrasound examination and multiple cysts had higher effective follow-up medication rate ( P < 0.01 or < 0.05). After the implementation of the integrated medical cooperation system, the proportion of unknown stages of diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis in Jimusar County decreased by 60.18%. The pilot counties initially formed a management model of echinococcosis patients based on outpatient, disease control and health centers. Conclusions:Echinococcosis patients have high recurrence rate in Jimusar County, and the effective follow-up medication rate is low. The medical cooperation system for echinococcosis patients in Xinjiang is explored, and the working mechanism of medical institutions linked with disease control institutions is formed. The working model suggestion is put forward, which could provide a scientific basis for further promotion and comprehensive evaluation of the medical cooperation system.

Objective:In order to solve the problem that it is inconvenient and easy to lose the transfusion rod when nurses use the flat car to transport the patients who need transfusion or transfusion at the same time with continuous washing by installing the recyclable transfusion rod on the original medical flat car.Methods:A recyclable infusion rod was installed in the medical flat car. According to the sequence of operation time, 160 patients in the operation room of our hospital were divided into the experimental group and the control group, 80 cases in each group. The experimental group used the medical flat car equipped with the recyclable infusion pole, and the control group used the ordinary flat car and the movable flagpole infusion pole. When the patients need to be transported after the operation, the time when the nurses go out from the operating room to pick up the flat car and the rate of the remaining transfusion rod after the patients are transported are compared to evaluate the application effect.Results:The time of taking flat car of the nurses in the experimental group was (63.34±4.72) seconds, which was significantly lower than (83.6±13.82) seconds of the control group ( t value was -29.89, P < 0.01). The rate of remaining infusion pole of the nurses in the control group was 6.25% (5/80), and that in the experimental group was 0, with statistical significance ( χ2 value was 5.16, P<0.05). Conclusion:The installation of recyclable infusion pole on the medical flat car can keep the cleanness of the infusion pole and reduce the incidence of hospital infection. When using the flat car, it can also reduce the time of taking the infusion pole again, reduce the workload of the nursing staff, put an end to the loss of the infusion pole and improve the working efficiency of the nursing staff.
