ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effects of gene of phosphate and tension homology (PTEN)-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin pathway on hippocampal mitophagy and cognitive function in mice with sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) and its possible mechanism.@*METHODS@#A total of 80 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into Sham group, cecal ligation puncture (CLP) group, PINK1 plasmid transfection pretreatment groups (p-PINK1+Sham group, p-PINK1+CLP group), empty vector plasmid transfection control group (p-vector+CLP group), with 16 mice in each group. The mice in CLP groups were treated with CLP to reproduce SAE models. The mice in the Sham groups were performed laparotomy only. Animals in the p-PINK1+Sham and p-PINK1+CLP groups were transfected with PINK1 plasmid through the lateral ventricle at 24 hours before surgery, while mice in the p-vector+CLP group were transfected with the empty plasmid. Morris water maze experiment was performed 7 days after CLP. The hippocampal tissues were collected, the pathological changes were observed under a light microscope after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and the mitochondrial autophagy was observed under a transmission electron microscopy after uranyl acetate and lead citrate staining. The expressions of PINK1, Parkin, Beclin1, interleukins (IL-6, IL-1β) and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) were detected by Western blotting.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the Sham group, CLP group mice in Morris water maze experiment had longer escape latency, shorter target quadrant residence time, and fewer times of crossing the platform at 1-4 days. Under the light microscope, the hippocampal structure of the mouse was injured, the neuronal cells were arranged in disorder, and the nuclei were pyknotic. Under the electron microscope, the mitochondria appeared swollen, round, and wrapped by bilayer or multilayer membrane structures. Compared with the Sham group, CLP group had higher expressions of PINK1, Parkin, Beclin1, LC3II/LC3I ratio, IL-6 and IL-1β in hippocampus, indicating that sepsis induced by CLP could activated inflammatory response and caused PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy. Compared with the CLP group, p-PINK1+CLP group had shorter escape latencies, spent more time in the target quadrant and had more number of crossings in the target quadrant at 1-4 days. Under the light microscope, the hippocampal structures of mice was destroyed, the neurons were arranged disorderly, and the nuclei were pyknotic. Under transmission electron microscope, swollen and rounded mitochondria and mitochondrial structure wrapped by double membrane or multilayer membrane structure were observed. Compared with the CLP group, the levels of PINK1, Parkin, Beclin1 and LC3II/LC3 ratio in the p-PINK1+CLP group were significantly increased [PINK1 protein (PINK1/β-actin): 1.95±0.17 vs. 1.74±0.15, Parkin protein (Parkin/β-actin): 2.06±0.11 vs. 1.78±0.12, Beclin1 protein (Beclin1/β-actin): 2.11±0.12 vs. 1.67±0.10, LC3II/LC3I ratio: 3.63±0.12 vs. 2.27±0.10, all P < 0.05], while the levels of IL-6 and IL-1β were significantly decreased [IL-6 protein (IL-6/β-actin): 1.69±0.09 vs. 2.00±0.11, IL-1β protein (IL-1β/β-actin): 1.11±0.12 vs. 1.65±0.12, both P < 0.05], suggesting that overexpression of PINK1 protein could further activate mitophagy and reduce the inflammatory response caused by sepsis. There was no statistically significant difference in the above pathological changes and related indicators between Sham group and p-PINK1+Sham group, CLP group and p-vector+CLP group.@*CONCLUSIONS@#PINK1 overexpression can further activate CLP-induced mitophagy by upregulating Parkin, thereby inhibiting inflammation response and alleviate cognitive function impairment in SAE mice.

ABSTRACT

Sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a severe disease secondary to sepsis, which is associated with increased mortality and causes long-term cognitive deficits in survivors. Recently, an increasing body of evidence has shown that gut microbiota is closely related to the central nervous system, and could influence brain function via microbiota-gut-brain axis. Therefore, in the occurrence and development of SAE, cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway is one of the mechanisms by which gut microbiota could improve cognitive function. Efferocytosis, a process of eliminating apoptotic cells in the body, has anti-inflammatory effects and provides organ protection in sepsis. On the other hand, it could be enhanced by some metabolites of gut microbiota, making it another potential mechanism for gut microbiota regulating SAE. This review summarizes the mutual regulation of gut microbiota, efferocytosis and SAE, to explore potential mechanisms and therapeutic targets of SAE.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of different flow rates of transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (Thrive) on hypoxic events during painless gastroscopy.Methods:Patients who underwent painless gastroscopy in Nanjing First Hospital from April to July 2020 were randomly selected by random number table method and assigned to Thrive groups of 30 L/min ( n=52), 50 L/min ( n=55) and 70 L/min ( n=54). The incidences of different degree of hypoxic events (including subclinical respiratory depression, hypoxia and severe hypoxia) and adverse events related to Thrive were recorded. Results:The total incidence of hypoxic events in the 70 L/min group was 0 (0/54), which was significantly lower than that in the 30 L/min group (21.3%, 11/52, χ2=12.75, P<0.001) and 50 L/min group (12.7%, 7/55, P=0.007). There were no significant differences in subclinical respiratory depression [13.5% (7/52) VS 5.5% (3/55), χ2=1.19, P=0.194] or hypoxia [7.7% (4/52) VS 7.3% (4/55), P=0.610] between 30 L/min group and 50 L/min group. No severe hypoxia occurred in any group. The oxygenation of patients with hypoxemia in 30 L/min and 50 L/min groups was improved (SpO 2>95%) after opening the airway by mandibular support. In addition, there were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse events except hypoxemia among the three groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The flow rates of Thrive of 30 L/min, 50 L/min, and 70 L/min can prevent the occurrence of severe hypoxia during painless gastroscopy, and the flow rate of 70 L/min can further reduce the incidence of subclinical respiratory depression.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between milk fat globular epidermal growth factor Ⅷ (MFG-E8)-mediated efferocytosis and sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) in mice.Methods:Forty clean-grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 2-3 months, weighing 18-22 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group Sham), cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) group (group CLP), sham operation+ phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group (group Sham+ PBS) and CLP+ recombinant mouse MFG-E8 group (group CLP+ rmMFG-E8). SAE was induced by CLP in anesthetized mice.PBS 1 μl and rmMFG-E8 1 μg were injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle in Sham+ PBS and CLP+ rmMFG-E8 groups after operation for 5 consecutive days.Novel object recognition test was performed at 6 days after operation, and the contextual fear conditioning test was performed at 7 and 8 days after operation.The percentage of time spent exploring a novel object, discrimination index and percentage of freezing time induced by condition were calculated.The animals were sacrificed after the end of behavioral tests, and the hippocampus was extracted for determination of the expression of MFG-E8 and GTP-Rac1 (by Western blot), the mRNA expression levels of interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-1β (using real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) and the apoptosis rate in hippocampus (by TUNEL). Results:Compared with group Sham, the percentage of time spent exploring a novel object, discrimination index and percentage of freezing time were significantly decreased, hippocamcal MFG-E8 expression was down-regulated, GTP-Rac1 expression was up-regulated, mRNA expression of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β was up-regulated, and apoptosis rate was increased in group CLP ( P<0.05). Compared with group CLP, the percentage of time spent exploring a novel object and discrimination index were significantly increased, freezing time was prolonged, hippocamcal MFG-E8 and GTP-Rac1 expression was up-regulated, mRNA expression of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β was down-regulated, and apoptosis rate was decreased in group CLP+ rmMFG-E8 ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The reduction of hippocampal MFG-E8-mediated efferocytosis may be involved in the pathophysiological mechanism of SAE in mice.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum C-X-C motif ligand 13 (CXCL13) concentration in senior patients undergoing total hip replacement and its role in post-operative dys-function(POCD).Methods Eighty consecutive senior patients aged 65-80 years with BMI 18.4-27.3 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,were recruited and scheduled to undergo hip joint replacement operation.Neuropsychological test was performed 1-5 d after operation and patients were divided into POCD group and non-POCD group.Serum C reactive protein (CPR),procalcitonin (PCT),IL-6, TNF-α,CXCL13 concentration were detected 1 d before and 1,2,3,4,5 d after operation. Results A total of 21 (26%)patients developed POCD 1-5 d after operation (recruited in POCD group),and the other 59 patients were recruited in non-POCD group.Compared with the time point of 1 d before operation,serum CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-αand CXCL13 concentration were higher 1-5 d after operation in all patients (P<0.05).The concentrationsof these factors were higher in patients from POCD group than in those from non-POCD group 1-5 d after operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion The CXCL13 concentration insenior patients undergoing total hip replacement who devel-oped POCD were higher than in those who did not developed POCD.Whether it is correlated with POCD remains further study.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the role of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM1)in rats with neuropathic pain and its possible mechanism.Methods Forty-eight male a-dult Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 220-300 g,were successfully placed intrathecal catheters,and then randomly divided into 4 groups (n=1 2 ):sham operation group (group S),neuropathic pain group (group CCI),TREM1 shRNA group (group RNAi)and negative lentivirus group (group Vi-rus).The neuropathic pain was induced by chronic sciatic nerve compression injury (CCI).In group RNAi,30 μl pGLVU6/RFP/Puro-shRNA (1×109IU/ml)was injected intrathecally 1 week before modeling.Group Virus was injected with 30 μl negative lentivirus,whereas group CCI and group S with equal amount of normal saline.MWT and TWL were measured 1 day before (baseline)and 1,3, 7,14 day after modeling.When behavioral test finished,the expression levels of TREM1,TLR4, MyD88,IκBαand p-NF-κB p65 in spinal cord were determined by Western blot.Whereas the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β,TNF-αand IL-6 in spinal cord were measured by RT-PCR.Results Com-pared with group S,the expression levels of TREM1 in groups CCI and Virus significantly increased (P<0.05).While compared with group CCI,the TREM1 expression of group RNAi in spinal cord significantly decreased (P<0.05).Compared with group S,MWT and TWL of groups CCI,Virus and RNAi after modeling and the expression of IκBαsignificantly decreased (P<0.05),whereas the expression of TLR4,MyD88,p-NF-κB p65 increased significantly (P<0.05),as well as the expres-sion of IL-1β,TNFαand IL-6 mRNA (P<0.05).Compared with group CCI,the MWT and TWL of group RNAi after modeling and the expression of IκBαremarkably increased (P<0.05),whereas the expression of TLR4,MyD88 and p-NF-κB p65 in the spinal cord remarkably decreased (P<0.05), as well as the expression of IL-1β,TNF-αand IL-6 mRNA (P<0.05).Conclusion TREM1 knock-down can alleviate neuropathic pain,the underlying mechanism might be the inhibition of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block (QLB) on the efficacy of postoperative analgesia after caesarean section.Methods Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ parturients,aged 20-39 yr,weighing 50-80 kg,scheduled for elective cesarean section under subarachnoid block,were divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:QLB group (group Q) and control group (group C).Ultrasound-guided bilateral QLBs were performed at the end of surgery,the solution was injected into the compartment between quadratus muscle and psoas major muscles,and 0.25% ropivacaine 1.25 mg/kg was injected to each side in group Q.The parturients in both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia after surgery to maintain the visual analog scale score ≤ 3,and dezocine 5 mg was intramuscularly injected as a rescue analgesic when the visual analog scale score≥4.Bruggrmann comfort scale (BCS) and Ramsay sedation scores were evaluated at 2,4,6,12,24 and 48 h after operation.The consumption of sufentanil during patient-controlled intravenous analgesia,requirement for rescue analgesia,satisfaction score of analgesia,the number of successfully delivered doses (D1) and the number of attempts (D2) were recorded within 24 h after surgery.D1/D2 was calculated.The development of respiratory depression and over-sedation was recorded.The development of QLB-related adverse reactions and postoperative nausea,vomiting,chest tightness and pruritus was also recorded.Results Compared with group C,BCS scores were significantly increased,the consumption of sufentanil was reduced,D1/D2 was increased,the requirement for rescue analgesia was decreased,and the satisfaction score of analgesia was increased (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in Ramsay sedation score in group Q (P>0.05).Adverse reactions such as respiratory depression,over-sedation,nausea,vomiting,chest tightness and pruritus were not found in two groups.Adverse reactions such as hematoma and infection at the puncture site or local anesthetic intoxication were not observed after surgery in group Q.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided QLB can enhance the efficacy of postoperative analgesia after caesarean section,reduce postoperative consumption of opioids and raise the comfort degree for parturients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of different biomarkers for early diagnosis of acute kidney injury ( AKI ) in the patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass ( CPB) . Methods A total of 200 patients, aged 22-86 yr, weighing 46-87 kg, scheduled for elective cardiovascular surgery under CPB, were enrolled in this study. The concentration of serum creatinine was determined at 1 day before operation and 1-7 days after operation. At 1 day before operation and 0, 2, 6 and 12 h after operation, the concentrations of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), cystatin C ( Cys C) , tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase type 2 ( TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 ( IGFBP-7) were determined. The TIMP-2 and IGFBP-7 product ( TI) was calcu-lated. AKI was diagnosed after surgery according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted, and the area under receiver operating characteristic curve ( AUC) was calculated. Results The incidence of AKI was 20. 5%. The AUC of AKI diagnosed by the concentration of urine NGAL was 0. 689, 0. 709, 0. 713 and 0. 803 at 0, 2, 6 and 12 h after opera-tion, respectively ( P<0. 05) . The AUC of AKI diagnosed by the concentration of urine Cys C was 0. 639, 0. 762, 0. 774 and 0. 812 at 0, 2, 6 and 12 h after operation, respectively ( P<0. 05) . The AUC of AKIdiagnosed by TI was 0. 687, 0. 721, 0. 740 and 0. 779 at 0, 2, 6 and 12 h after operation, respectively ( P<0. 05) . The AUC of AKI diagnosed by combined three indices the parallel test was 0. 694, 0. 773 and 0. 794 at 0, 2 and 6 h after operation, respectively ( P<0. 05) . The AUC of AKI diagnosed by the serial test was 0. 610, 0. 631 and 0. 667 at 0, 2 and 6 h after operation, respectively. Conclusion Urine NGAL or Cys C concentrations or TI single detection and parallel test have a certain accuracy for early diag-nosis of AKI in the patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery under CPB.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the predictive capability of different methods for difficult la-ryngoscopy and analyze its optimal cutoff value.Methods Three hundred consecutive patients (aged 18-65 years,weighing 42-88 kg,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ)scheduled to undergo general anesthe-sia and surgery were invited to participate.Difficult airway assessments were performed by thyromen-tal height (TMH),thyromental distance (TMD),sternomental distance (SMD),modified Mallam-pati test (MMT)and ratio of height and TMD (RHTMD)before anesthetic induction.Cormack-Le-hane (C-L)grade of laryngoscopy view was assessed after induction.Sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value (PPV),negative predictive value (NPV)and accuracy of these tests were calculated. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC)curve of TMH was performed to determine the optimal cutoff value of TMH.Results There were 22 patients diagnosed as difficult airway.Sensitivity,specificity, PPV,NPV and accuracy of TMH were higher than those of TMD,SMD and MMT tests.Sensitivity of RHTMD was lower than that of TMH test,and specificity,PPV,NPV and accuracy of RHTMD were similar to that of TMH.The optimal cutoff value of TMH was 4.9 cm through ROC curve. Conclusion The optimal cutoff value of TMH detecting difficult laryngoscopy was 4.9 cm.Similar to RHTMD,TMH appears to be more effective for prediction of difficult laryngoscopy than TMD, SMD and MMT.
