ABSTRACT

@#Chalcone is a common scaffold in natural products with optimal properties and biological activities.In this study, we designed and prepared eight new coumarin-chalcone derivatives (5a-5h), and confirmed their structures by 1H NMR and 13C NMR. Their in vitro antifungal activity combined with fluconazole (FLC) against drug-resistant Candida albicans was tested by microdilution method.The results indicated that most chalcone derivatives showed good antifungal activity against drug resistant Candida albicans with FLC, particularly with compound 5g displaying better antifungal activity (MIC50 = 5.60 μg/mL) than FLC (MIC50 = 200 μg/mL) when combined with FLC, so, these derivatives could be used as synergists of antifungal drugs.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of decorin (DCN) on the proliferation, migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells.Methods:Bladder cancer T24 cell line was used as the research object. MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory effect of DCN at different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 mg/L) on T24 cell proliferation at 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. The effects of DCN on T24 cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. MTT assay, Transwell migration and invasion experiments were used to detect the effects of DCN on the adhesion, migration and invasion ability of T24 cells. The effects of DCN on TGF-β1 and P21 protein expression were detected by ELISA and Western blotting.Results:T24 cells were treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/L DCN at 24, 48, 72 and 96 h, and there were statistically significant diffe-rences in cell proliferation activity ( F=168.64, P<0.001; F=165.81, P<0.001; F=291.02, P<0.001; F=148.93, P<0.001). T24 cells were treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/L DCN for 72 h, and the cell proliferation activities were (60.71±3.03)%, (40.82±2.09)%, (37.24±1.63)%, (25.65±2.55)%, (23.00±2.67)%, (10.78±1.17)%, (11.04±0.96)%, respectively, and there was a statistically significant difference. At the concentration of 40 mg/L, the proliferation activity reached the lowest level, and the inhibitory effect on cell proliferation was the strongest. At concentrations of 40 and 50 mg/L, the cells in G 1 phase reached the peak value, while the cells in S phase reached the lowest value, and the cells in G 2 phase remained unchanged throughout the treatment process. T24 cells were treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/L DCN for 72 h, and the apoptosis rates of cells were (12.18±1.17)%, (21.24±1.05)%, (19.80±1.20)%, (26.52±1.40)%, (30.86±1.40)%, (52.99±1.22)%, (43.04±2.16)%, respectively, and there was a statistically significant difference ( F=178.54, P<0.001). The differences between 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 mg/L DCN and 0 mg/L DCN were all statistically significant (all P<0.001). When T24 cells were treated with 0, 40 mg/L DCN for 72 h, the cell adhesion rates were (37.14±1.35)% and (59.86±1.95)%, the numbers of migrated cells were 53.86±3.18 and 12.86±1.35, and there were statistically significant differences ( t=25.25, P<0.001; t=31.36, P<0.001). When DCN was applied to T24 cells for 48 h, the numbers of invasion at 0, 40 mg/L were 235.14±3.44 and 160.86±3.13, and there was a statistically significant difference ( t=2.27, P<0.001). When T24 cells were treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/L DCN for 72 h, the relative expression levels of TGF-β1 were 85.67±3.35, 45.51±1.19, 49.93±4.15, 47.64±3.53, 46.05±3.18, 25.54±2.25, 33.44±4.05, and there was a statistically significant difference ( F=324.58, P<0.001). Compared with 0 mg/L DCN, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/L DCN could significantly inhibited the expression of TGF-β1 (all P<0.001). Compared with 0 mg/L DCN, P21 protein was upregulated 72 h after treatment with 40 mg/L DCN. Conclusion:DCN can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of T24 cells in vitro, and has the effect of anti-metastasis of T24 cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of ventricular intracranial pressure monitoring (V-ICPM) in gradient decompression for patients with traumatic cerebral hernia.Methods:The clinical data of 103 patients with traumatic cerebral hernia admitted to our hospital from October 2016 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into observation group ( n=49) and control group ( n=54) according to whether V-ICPM was applied. Patients in the observation group accepted V-ICPM before gradient decompression, and patients in the control group accepted gradient decompression directly. Incidence of malignant encephalocele, clinical short-term and long-term efficacies, and complications were compared between the two groups. According to intracranial pressure (ICP), the patients were divided into normal or slightly increased ICP (≤22 mmHg), moderate increased ICP (23-40 mmHg) and severe increased ICP (>40 mmHg); the relationship between ICP and prognoses was analyzed in the observation group. Results:(1) The incidences of intraoperative malignant encephalocele in the observation group (16.33%) were slightly lower than that in the control group (29.63%), without significant difference ( P>0.05). Twenty four h after gradient decompression, pupils recovered in 35 patients (71.43%) from the observation group and 28 patients (51.85%) from the control group, significant difference in the pupils recovery rate was noted between the two groups ( χ2=4.145, P=0.042); the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores between the observation group (8.43±2.56) and control group (7.39±2.47) showed statistical differences ( t=-2.095, P=0.039). Three months after gradient decompression, there were 7 patients with Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) scores of 5, 18 patients with scores of 4, 10 patients with scores of 3, 8 patients with scores of 2, and 6 patients with score of 1 in the observation group; there were 12 patients with GOS scores of 5, 17 patients with scores of 4, 12 patients with scores of 3, 7 patients with scores of 2, and 6 patients with score of 1 in the control group; the difference was not statistically significant ( Z=-0.681, P=0.496). (2) The higher the ICP in the observation group (initially and when the dura mater is cut), the worse the prognosis. Conclusion:The application of V-ICPM before gradient decompression cannot further improve the long-term prognosis of the patients, but it can provide intraoperative reference and prognosis prediction for the operators.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To analyze and summarize the clinical characteristics of tubercular lymphadenitis, and to improve the ability of diagnosis. @*Methods@#Clinical records of 129 patients first confirmed with tubercular lymphadenitis were collected retrospectively from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University between January 2012 and December 2016. The categorical variables were described with the percentage (%) and compared with the chi-squaue test. Non-normal distribution data were described with M(P25, P75) and compared with rank sum test.@*Results@#The disease courses were different in all cases, mostly of 1-3 months (45.7%). Among the cases, 83 cases (73.6%) complained of lymph node enlargement. The predominant involved lymph node site was cervical (56.6%) with main presentation of single lymph node (61.2%). Only a few cases presented with fever (34.1%). The positive rate of histological examinations was 94.3%, while the positive rate of T cell spot test of tuberculosis infection (T-SPOT.TB) test was 93.3% and purified protein derivative (PPD) test was 69.6%. In the diagnosis of tubercular lymphadenitis, 100 cases (77.5%) were confirmed by histological examinations, 27 cases (20.9%) were given diagnostic treatment, and only 2 case (1.6%) was confirmed by culture. The average period of diagnosis was (10.4±6.5) days. The median age of patients with fever was 50.5 years old with a median disease course of 2.5 months, while the median age of patients fever was 35(24, 49) years old with a median disease course of 1.2(0.5, 6.0) months. The differences between two groups were statistically significant (Z=-3.118 and -2.982, respectively, both P<0.05). Patients with fever had higher proportion of swollen deep lymph nodes (54.5% vs 11.8%), elevated white blood cell counts (34.1% vs 7.1%) and neutrophils (31.8% vs 1.8%), elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (97.1% vs 56.1%), elevated C-reactive protein (95.0% vs 40.0%) and received diagnostic treatment (47.7% vs 7.1%) than patients with no fever (χ2=27.337, 15.545, 13.567, 19.347, 25.410 and 28.974, respectively, all P<0.05). @*Conclusions@#Most patients of tubercular lymphadenitis do not present with typical symptoms which might lead to misdiagnose in early stage. The histological examinations and T-SPOT.TB test are especially essential, and histological examinations is the most important diagnostic method. Patients without symptoms of tuberculous poisoning are more common in young people, and the confirmation of diagnosis are mainly based on histological examinations. Patients with symptoms of tuberculous poisoning are more common in middle-aged, with longer duration and deep lymph node involved, which is more serious and nearly half of which are confirmed with diagnostic treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Sheshang capsule for treatment of blood coagulation dysfunction in patients bitten by Trimeresurus stejnegeri snake. Methods A prospective study was conducted. Seventy Trimeresurus stejnegeri snake envenoming patients whose manifestations conformed to the diagnostic criteria of the fire toxin syndrome in TCM were assigned into therapy group and control group by random number table (each, 35 cases). The basic treatments (including wound disinfection, intramuscular injection of 1 500 U tetanus antitoxin, conventional dose of antibiotics, 10 mg dexamethasone, 40 mg omeprazole) and 10 Jidesheng Sheyao tablets three times a day were applied in the control group. In the therapy group, the basic treatments the same as those of the control group were given, and in the mean time 5 Sheshang capsules (the drug was prepared in our hospital including ingredients:rhubarb, coptidis rhizoma, pleione bulbocodioides, elecampane inula root, bayberry bark, borneol and so on) were administered three times a day. The therapeutic course in the two groups was 1 week. The levels of platelet α-granule membrane protein (CD62p), thromboxane B2 (TXB2), platelet factor 3 (PF3) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in serum were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before and after treatment. Results Before treatment, there were no significant differences in CD62p, TXB2, PF3 and vWF between therapy group and control group [CD62p (μg/L):3.81±1.64 vs. 3.52±1.43, TXB2 (μg/L):13.04±1.67 vs. 13.31±1.14, PF3 (μg/L): 2.84±1.08 vs. 2.88±1.23, vWF (μg/L):12.36±2.42 vs. 11.89±2.08, all P>0.05]. After treatment, the levels of CD62p, TXB2 and PF3 were increased, while vWF decreased compared with those before treatment in both groups, the level changes in therapy group being more remarkable [CD62p (μg/L): 6.73±1.77 vs. 5.81±1.62, TXB2 (μg/L):18.65±1.77 vs. 17.90±1.68, PF3 (μg/L):5.61±1.48 vs. 4.77±1.24, vWF (μg/L):3.87±1.01 vs. 4.58±1.09, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01]. Conclusion The Sheshang capsule is capable of treating patients with blood coagulative disorder after Trimeresurus stejnegeri snake bite, and its mechanism is possibly related to the improvement of platelet activation function and amelioration of the damage of vascular endothelial cells.

ABSTRACT

Menarche and menopause are two important physiological periods that denote the beginning and the end of normal reproductive life.Studies have suggested that ages at menarche and menopause are important biological markers,and are also predictors of several chronic diseases.We published one manuscript in J Clin Endocrinol Metab titled Associations between age at menarche and menopause with cardiovascular disease,diabetes,and osteoporosis in Chinese women,which suggested that ages at menarche and menopause are not associated with diabetes,delayed menarche and menopause are associated with decreased risk of cardiovascular disease risk and early menopause with high risk of osteoporosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and microvessel density (MVD) in prostatic cancer (PCa) and correlation with their metastasis. Methods The expression of MMP-9 and CD34(marked MVD) was detected by immunohistochemistry in 70 cases of prostatic diseases,including PCa (42 cases) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)(28 cases), compared clinical-stage and pathology and studied their results by statistical methods. Results The positive rate of MMP-9 in BPH and PCa was 10.7% (3/28) and 54.8% (23/42), the positive rate of MMP-9 was significantly higher in PCa than that in BPH (P< 0.05). The positive rate of MMP-9 in PCa metastasis group (C+D phase) and situ group (A+B phase) was 76.9% (20/26) and 18.8% (3/16),there was statistically significant difference between PCa metastasis group and situ group (P < 0.01). The concentration of MVD in PCa metastasis group and situ group was (69.47 ± 11.86), (51.09 ± 11.98) points each view, there was statistically significant difference between PCa metastasis group and situ group(P< 0.01) ,and all of MVD in PCa was significantly higher than that in BPH (27.92 ± 8.41) points each view (P < 0.01). The higher MMP-9 expression was positively correlated with increased MVD in PCa (r = 0.325,P< 0.05). Conclusion MMP-9 and MVD can be as indicator to pridict the metastasis of PCa.
