ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the impact of contrast agent concentration on the excimer laser's effect on plaque ablation.Methods Using a laser catheter with a diameter of 0.9 mm,we conducted plaque model ablation experiments employing a 308-nanometer xenon chloride excimer laser.During the excimer laser ablation process,five groups were formed based on the injected contrast agent concentrations:a saline group,25%concentration group,50%concentration group,75%concentration group,and 100%concentration group.Optical coherence tomography was utilized to assess the changes in plaque lumen area after excimer laser ablation,evaluating the impact of contrast agent concentration on the excimer laser's ablation efficacy.Simultaneously,a water manometer was used to measure the shockwave pressure generated by the excimer laser in liquids with different contrast agent concentrations,aiming to explore the correlation between the shockwave pressure of the excimer laser and its ablative effect.Results The ablation areas in the 75%concentration group and the 100%concentration group were similar(P>0.05),both exceeding those in the 50%concentration contrast agent group,25%concentration group,and saline group(all P<0.001).Specifically,the ablation area in the 50%concentration group was significantly larger than that in the 25%concentration group and saline group(both P<0.001),while the 25%concentration group was larger than the saline group(P<0.001).The influence of contrast agent concentration on the shockwave pressure of the excimer laser exhibited a similar trend.Additionally,there was a significant positive correlation between the shockwave pressure generated by the excimer laser and its ablation area(r=0.9987,P<0.001).Conclusions The intensity of excimer laser ablation on plaque tissue can be modulated by altering the contrast agent concentration.These findings offer guidance for the application of excimer laser in conjunction with contrast agent injection techniques in the treatment of coronary artery disease.

ABSTRACT

Objectives:To compare the efficacy of the combination of excimer laser coronary angioplasty(ELCA)and drug-coated balloon(DCB)for in-stent restenosis(ISR)and to evaluate the impact of neointimal tissue characteristics on treatment outcomes. Methods:A total of 96 ISR lesions from 86 patients who underwent optical coherence tomography(OCT)evaluation and DCB with or without ELCA treatment at The First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2019 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.ISR lesions were divided into ELCA+DCB group(n=30)and DCB group(n=66).Additionally,ISR lesions were classified as homogeneous and non-heterogeneous patterns based on the OCT characteristics of the neointimal tissue,and the impact on acute lumen gains was compared between different ISR patterns.Acute lumen gain(ΔMLA)was defined as the changes in minimum lumen area before and after the intervention. Results:The ELCA+DCB group had a significantly greater ΔMLA than the DCB group([3.2±0.8]mm2 vs.[2.6±1.4]mm2,P=0.015).Among the ISR with a homogeneous pattern,the ΔMLA of the ELCA+DCB group was significantly greater than that of the DCB group([3.0±0.9]mm2 vs.[2.2±1.1]mm2,P=0.030).There was no significant difference in ΔMLA between the two ISR groups with the non-homogeneous pattern([3.4±0.7]mm2 vs.[3.2±1.5]mm2,P=0.533).There was no death,the rate of target lesion revascularization was similar between the patients with lesions receiving DCB treatment and patients receiving ELCA +DCB treatment(7.4%vs.4.2%,P>0.05). Conclusions:The combination of ELCA and DCB is an effective strategy for treating ISR,which can achieve greater acute lumen gain compared to DCB treatment alone,especially for the treatment of homogenous ISR pattern characterized by OCT.

ABSTRACT

The objective of this work was to evaluate the anti-fatigue efficacy of Astragali Radix (AR) from the Shanxi Hengshan area and to reveal possible mechanisms by which it relieves fatigue. Efficacy differences between Guangling (GL) and Hunyuan (HY) AR preparations were compared and evaluated, and an 1H NMR metabolomic technique combined with statistical methods was used to identify the metabolites in different groups of mouse gastrocnemius muscle tissues. The differential metabolites after AR treatments were identified according to VIP and P values and the upstream targets were predicted with the help of Metscape. Cytoscape software was utilized to construct a network map of AR potential anti-fatigue targets. Key differential metabolites were identified based on shared targets and entered into the Metaboanalyst website for pathway enrichment analysis, which led to the preliminary elucidation of the molecular mechanisms. The results showed that intervention with AR can significantly improve the swimming-to-exhaustion time, increase liver glycogen, and reduce urea-nitrogen levels in mice. The difference between GL and HY ARs was relatively small, indicating that the quality of AR produced in the Hengshan area is consistent and stable. The metabolic fingerprints of mouse gastrocnemius muscle tissue extracts were composed of 34 metabolites, and the statistical results showed that 19 differential metabolites were significantly reversed after the Hengshan AR intervention. We found that the anti-fatigue effects of AR in the Shanxi Hengshan area were mainly associated with taurine and hypotaurine metabolism through regulation of GAD1, based on network pharmacological analysis. In conclusion, 1H NMR metabolomic techniques were combined with network pharmacology to compare and evaluate the quality of Hengshan ARs, and further associate the fatigue relieve with the regulation of taurine metabolism. This provides a theoretical basis for the resource utilization of Hengshan ARs and the development of anti-fatigue-related products. The animal experiments in this study followed the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Shanxi University and passed the ethical review of animal experiments (Approval No. SXULL2021028).

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effect of miR-181a on chondrosarcoma cell growth through phosphatase and tensin homolog(PTEN) and its possible regulatory mechanism.Methods:From January to December 2022, 10 fresh chondrosarcoma and 10 chondroma tissues from orthopedic patients of Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital were collected, and the expression of miR-181a in chondrosarcoma and chondroma tissues was detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR); Chondrosarcoma cell SW1353 was cultured in vitro and transfected with miR-181a inhibitor (miR-181a inhibition group) and control (miR-NC, control group), respectively. The effects of miR-181a on the growth and proliferation of SW1353 cells were detected by cell counting kit (CCK-8) and clone formation test, respectively; The binding sites between miR-181a and PTEN were predicted through the Target Scan database, and verified using dual luciferase reporter gene experiments; The mimetic miR-181a (miR-181a group) and its control (miR-NC, control group) were transfected into chondrosarcoma cell SW1353, respectively. The adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, glucose consumption, and lactic acid production in the cells were measured, and the effect of miR-181a on glycolysis of SW1353 cells was analyzed. Results:The expression of miR-181a in chondrosarcoma tissues was significantly higher than that in chondroma tissues ( P<0.05). The cell growth and clonogenesis ability of miR-181a inhibition group were significantly lower than those of control group (all P<0.05). It was predicted by Target Scan online website that there might be binding sites between miR-181a and PTEN, and co-transfection of wild-type PTEN and miR-181a could significantly reduce luciferase activity by double luciferase reporter assay ( P<0.05). The ATP content, glucose consumption and lactic acid production of miR-181a group were significantly higher than those of miR-NC group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:MiR-181a promotes the growth of chondrosarcoma cells through PTEN-mediated glycolysis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning combined with postconditioning (RIPC+ RIPostC) on postoperative delirium (POD) in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods:Eighty patients aged 44-64 years old and scheduled to elective heart valve replacement under CPB in the operating room of our hospital were recruited and divided into control group (group C) and group R according to random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. Patients in group R underwent RIPC 30 minutes before the start of CPB and RIPostC 30 minutes before the end of CPB. The specific treatment measures were as follows: tie an inflatable cuff on the patient' s lower limb, inflate and pressurize until the pressure to 200 mmHg, hold for 5 minutes, and then completely deflate the cuff until the pressure to 0; after 5 minutes, inflate and pressurize again, and repeat for 3 cycles. The cuff was tied to the patient' s lower limb, but no inflation and deflation were performed in group C. Peripheral venous blood was drawn 1 day before operation and 1 day and 3 days after operation, and blood routine was determined. POD was assessed by the intensive care unit (ICU) consciousness disturbance assessment method (CAM-ICU) within 3 days after the operation. Neurocognitive testing was performed preoperatively, at discharge, and 3 months postoperatively, and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and dementia (AD) were assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination Scale (MMSE), with exclusion of preoperative patients with <24 points. Intraoperative and postoperative adverse events including sinus bradycardia or hypotension/hypertension, postoperative infection, etc. were recorded. The length of hospital stay and 90-day mortality were recorded. After 3 months, data related to sleep, quality of life, anxiety and pain were collected using questionnaires.Results:The white blood cell count, neutrophil count and percentage of neutrophils in the two groups at 1 day and 3 days after operation were all higher than those at 1 day before operation, but the indexes in group R was significantly lower than those in group C ( P<0.05). A total of 13 patients (32.5%) in group C developed POD within 3 days after surgery, while 27 patients (67.5%) did not develop POD, and there was a significant difference between the groups ( P<0.05). A total of 5 patients (12.5%) in group R developed POD within 3 days after surgery, and 35 patients (87.5%) did not develop POD. At the 90-day follow-up, there was no difference in the MMSE score compared with the baseline ( P>0.05). A total of 4 patients (10%) developed neurocognitive dysfunction after surgery. There was no difference in the incidence of POCD between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of adverse events such as bradykinesia, hypotension/hypertension, and postoperative infection were similar between the two groups, and there was no significant difference ( P>0.05). During the 90-day follow-up period after surgery, no patient died in either group. There was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). Using the EQ-5D questionnaire to evaluate the quality of life of the two groups of patients, the results showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 3 months after operation, there was no significant difference in sleep quality between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:RIPC+ RIPostC can reduce the inflammatory response, reduce the incidence of POD and improve the quality of life after operation in patients with heart valve replacement under CPB.

ABSTRACT

With the ultra high performance liquid chromatography-quadruple-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q Exactive Orbitrap-MS)-based metabonomics technology, this study aims to analyze the effect of Chaiqin Ningshen Granules(CNG) on endogenous metabolites in insomnia rats of liver depression syndrome and explore the sleep-improving mechanism of this prescription. Parachlorophenylalanine(PCPA, ip) and chronic stimulation were combined to induce insomnia of liver depression pattern in rats, and the effect of CNG on the macroscopic signs, hemorheology, and neurotransmitters in the hippocampus of insomnia rats of liver depression syndrome was observed. After the administration, rat hippocampus was collected for liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) analysis of the metabolomics. Principal component analysis(PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA), and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were employed for analyzing the metabolites in rat hippocampus and screening potential biomarkers. MetPA was used to yield the related metabolic pathways and metabolic networks. The results show that the drugs can significantly improve the mental state, liver depression, and blood stasis of rats, significantly increase the content of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) and gamma aminobutyric acid(GABA) in hippocampus(except low-dose CNG), and significantly reduce the content of glucose(Glu)(except low-dose CNG). Among them, estazolam and high-dose CNG had better effect than others. Metabolomics analysis yielded 27 potential biomarkers related to insomnia. MetPA analysis showed 4 metabolic pathways of estazolam in intervening insomnia and 3 metabolic pathways of high-dose CNG in intervening insomnia, involving purine metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, histidine metabolism, and caffeine metabolism. CNG can alleviate insomnia by regulating endogenous differential metabolites and further related metabolic pathways. The result lays a basis for further elucidating the mechanism of CNG in improving sleep.

ABSTRACT

Based on ~1H-NMR metabonomics technique and Western blot assay, the anti-inflammatory mechanism of Crepis crocea was discussed. In this study, male SD rats were treated with water extract(2.5 g·kg~(-1)) and dexamethasone acetate(6.25×10~(-4) g·kg~(-1)) for one week, and the inflammation model was induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS). Then the counts of inflammatory cells white blood ceel(WBC), eosinophil(EO), lymphocyte(LY), basophils(BA) and neutrophils(NE) in whole blood of rats were observed. The levels of serum inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), IL-6 and the expression of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) signaling pathway p65 and p-IκBα proteins in lung tissues were detected, and the change rules of serum endogenous metabolites were analyzed by ~1H-NMR metabonomics technique. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and NF-κB signaling pathway p65 and p-IκBα proteins were combined with ~1H-NMR metabonomics to study the anti-inflammatory mechanism of C. crocea. The results showed that the water extract of C. crocea significantly decreased the number of WBC, NE, EO, increased the number of BA and LY, decreased the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and the expression of p65 and p-IκBα protein in NF-κB signaling pathway, and effectively alleviated the inflammatory symptoms. In the correlation analysis of differential metabolites regulated of C. crocea, four significant metabolites were obtained, including glycine, creatine, methionine and succinic acid. The anti-inflammatory mechanism of C. crocea may be related to the decrease of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 levels and the protein expression of NF-κB signaling pathway, as well as the regulation of glycine, creatine, methionine and succinic acid metabolism.

ABSTRACT

Curcumin, an active ingredient of Curcuma longa L., can reduce the concentration of low-density lipoproteins in plasma, in different ways. We had first reported that curcumin exhibits hypocholesterolemic properties by improving the apolipoprotein B (apoB) mRNA editing in primary rat hepatocytes. However, the role of curcumin in the regulation of apoB mRNA editing is not clear. Thus, we investigated the effect of curcumin on the expression of multiple editing components of apoB mRNA cytidine deamination to uridine (C-to-U) editosome. Our results demonstrated that treatment with 50 µM curcumin markedly increased the amount of edited apoB mRNA in primary mouse hepatocytes from 5.13%–8.05% to 27.63%–35.61%, and significantly elevated the levels of the core components apoB editing catalytic polypeptide-1 (APOBEC-1), apobec-1 complementation factor (ACF), and RNA-binding-motif-protein-47 (RBM47), as well as suppressed the level of the inhibitory component glycine-arginine-tyrosine-rich RNA binding protein. Moreover, the increased apoB RNA editing by 50 µM curcumin was significantly reduced by siRNA-mediated APOBEC-1, ACF, and RBM47 knockdown. These findings suggest that curcumin modulates apoB mRNA editing by coordinating the multiple editing components of the editosome in primary hepatocytes. Our data provided evidence for curcumin to be used therapeutically to prevent atherosclerosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the clinical application of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging in open hepatectomy.@*Methods@#A total of forty-five patients who underwent liver resection in Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from July 2017 to December 2018 were included in this prospective study. There were 26 males and 19 females, aged between 29 to 74 (51±10) years. Indocyanine green was injected intravenously 72~96 hours prior to surgery in all these patients. An intraoperative fluorescence imaging system was used to locate and remove the tumor, the liver parenchymal transection planes and surgical margins were detected by fluorescence again after tumor resection. The fluorescence profiles of the tumor specimens in relation to the tumor differentiation were analyzed.@*Results@#Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging was performed in 45 patients. A total of 66 lesions were detected by preoperative CT (or MRI), abdominal ultrasound and intraoperative fluorescence imaging. After excision of the primary liver cancer, the surgical margins of the remnant liver stumps and fluorescence in the excised liver specimens were studied. Thirteen small lesions were found in 10 patients, most of which were located at the surgical margin, and the smallest tumors detected were less than 5 mm in diameter. Five venous cancer emboli were found in 5 patients, 3 of which were not detected by preoperative imaging examinations. The fluorescence profile images of the excised hepatocellular carcinoma specimens showed homogeneous fluorescence in most highly differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma, and partial fluorescence or ring fluorescence in moderately differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma.@*Conclusion@#Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging technology can identify liver surface lesions, as well as detect small residual lesions at the cutting edge and venous thrombus, which improves the efficiency of hepatocellular carcinoma resection.

ABSTRACT

Objective:The effect of processing on promoting digestion of Crataegi Fructus was investigated by the method of serum metabonomics based on 1H-NMR and the analysis of traditional biochemical indexes. Method:The dyspepsia model was induced by high protein and calorie diet. The small intestine propulsive rate in mice and the hormone level in rat gastrointestinal tract were used as pharmacodynamic indexes. After administration of Crataegi Fructus, fried and charred Crataegi Fructus, the changes of serum metabolites were analyzed by 1H-NMR technique combined with multivariate statistical analysis, so as to compare the therapeutic effects of each processed products on rats with dyspepsia model. Result:Each processed products group of Crataegi Fructus could improve the ability of intestinal propulsion and gastric emptying, especially in charred Crataegi Fructus group, caused by dyspepsia. The serum metabonomics proved that there were significant metabolic differences between the model group and the blank group. A total of 13 biomarkers related to dyspepsia, covering 3-hydroxybutyric acid, glycerophosphoryl choline (GPC), N-acetylglycoprotein, O-acetylglycoprotein, trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), alanine, acetic acid, glutamic acid, glutamine, creatine, leucine, lactic acid and glucose, were screened on the grounds of VIP value of S-plot, single factor ANOVA and area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) (AUC). The metabolite composition of each administration group was the same except that the callback tendency of O-acetylglycoprotein, glutamine and GPC in charred Crataegi Fructus group was closer to that in the blank group. Conclusion:There are differences in the effect of promoting digestion to eliminate stagnation among processed products of Crataegi Fructus, charred Crataegi Fructus is more effective in improving dyspepsia, which may play a role in regulating gastrointestinal motility and energy metabolism.

ABSTRACT

Based on1 H-NMR metabonomics,the effects of Codonopsis pilosula,rice-fried C. pilosula and honey-fried C. pilosula on spleen-asthenia rats were compared,and the mechanism was discussed in this study. The rat model of spleen deficiency was established by weight-bearing swimming and fasting every other day. The effects of different processed products of C. pilosula on the body weight and swimming time of rats were observed. At the end of administration,the gastrocnemius muscle of the right leg of rats was collected and detected by1 H-NMR,and the mechanism of different processed products of C. pilosula in improving spleen deficiency was preliminarily investigated by multivariate statistical analysis. The results showed that C. pilosula,honey-fried C. pilosula and rice-fried C. pilosula could significantly prolong the swimming time( P<0. 05). There was no significant difference in the body weight of rats with spleen deficiency. The results of metabonomics showed that honey-processed C. pilosula could significantly decrease levels of leucine,isoleucine,alanine,acetate,glutamate,succinate,anserine,dimethylamine,dimethylglycine,creatine,phosphorylcholine,glycerophosphorylcholine,taurine,inosine,fumate,hypoxanthine and lactate,but increase levels of glucose,glycine,compared with model group. Therefore,honey-fried C. pilosula has the best efficacy on spleen deficiency syndrome in rats by regulating glycometabolism,amino acid metabolism,lipid metabolism and nucleotide metabolism.
