ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of Anlotinib on proliferation and apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)cells and its molecular mechanism.Methods Non-small cell lung cancer cell lines A549 and H1299 were incubated with Anlotinib,miR-16-5p agonist and/or PD-1 overexpression vector respectively.CCK-8 assay and EDU assay were applied to detect the proliferation.Flow cytometry was performed to detect the cell apop-tosis.The relative expression of miR-16-5 p in A549 and H1299 was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).The relative protein expression of PD-1 in A549 and H1299 was detected by Western blot assay.The interaction between miR-16-5p and PD-1 was determined by dual luciferase reporter assay.Finally,A549 cell xenograft model was established to assess the effect of Anlotinib on tumor growth in vivo.Results Anlotinib significantly increased miR-16-5p expression and decreased PD-1 expression in A549 cells and H1299 cells,inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05).The highly-expressed miR-16-5p inhibited proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis(P<0.05).Also,miR-16-5p targeted at PD-1 and negatively regulated PD-1 expression.Knockdown of PD-1 inhibited proliferation and pro-moted cell apoptosis(P<0.05).PD-1 over-expression reversed the Anlotinib-mediated pro-proliferation and anti-apoptosis of miR-16-5p in A549 cells and H1299 cells(P<0.05).Anlotinib significantly reduced tumor growth in vivo(P<0.05).Conclusions Anlotinib may inhibit cell proliferation,anti-apoptosis,and reduce tumor growth for NSCLC,which is involved in miR-16-5p/PD-1 axis.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system mediated by T cells.The Toll-like receptors(TLRs)/myeloid differentiation factor 88(MyD88)/nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)signaling pathway plays an important role in the development of the disease.Exploring the specific mechanism of the signaling pathway is essential for further treatment of the disease and improving the prognosis of patients. OBJECTIVE:To review the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway and its role in multiple sclerosis/experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis models,which provides new ideas and strategies for the treatment of multiple sclerosis by inhibiting the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway. METHODS:The literature related to the topic from January 2002 to December 2022 was searched in CNKI,WanFang and PubMed databases.A total of 61 articles were finally included for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway is an important pathway that triggers a pro-inflammatory immune response.The TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway plays an important role in the development of multiple sclerosis by regulating the antigen presentation of dendritic cells,destroying the integrity of the blood-brain barrier,and promoting the activation of T cells,B cells and microglia.By targeting TLRs,MyD88 and NF-κB molecules,inhibiting the activation or signal transduction of TLRs,MyD88 and NF-κB,and reducing the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors,multiple sclerosis can be treated.Animal studies have shown that active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicines,such as flavonoids and glycosides,and traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas,such as Buyang Huanwu Tang,can also treat experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by regulating the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway,which points to the direction of searching for medicines targeting the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Hyperuricemia is a common metabolic disease,and the main clinical manifestation of patients with hyperuricemia is the formation of uric acid crystals leading to gout.Previous studies have only reported that uric acid crystals lead to intervertebral disc degeneration,but there are fewer studies on the correlation between hyperuricemia and intervertebral disc degeneration. OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the characteristics of intervertebral disc degeneration in patients with hyperuricemia and the correlation between serum uric acid level and intervertebral disc degeneration. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed in all patients diagnosed with intervertebral disc degeneration admitted at the Department of Orthopedics,the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022.There were 97 hyperuricemia patients in the hyperuricemia group and 194 non-hyperuricemia patients in the control group according to sex and age in a ratio of 1:2.Blood uric acid test results were collected,and Pfirrmann scoring was performed for the degree of disc degeneration in patients based on the whole spinal MRI images.The difference in the degree of disc degeneration between the two groups was compared,and the correlation between the serum uric acid level and the degree of intervertebral disc degeneration was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The Pfirrmann score in the hyperuricemia group was higher than that in the control group,and the total number of disc degeneration in the hyperuricemia group was also significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the degree of disc degeneration in male patients was positively correlated with serum uric acid level at many spinal segments in the hyperuricemia group(C3/4:r=0.317,C4/5:r=0.333,C5/6:r=0.309,L2/3:r=0.443,P<0.05);the degree of disc degeneration in female patients was also positively correlated with serum uric acid level(C3/4:r=0.354,C4/5:r=0.388,C6/7:r=0.312,T7/8:r=0.282,T9/10:r=0.305,T11/12:r=0.277,L4/5:r=0.319,L5-S1:r=0.367,P<0.05).In the control group,there was no significant correlation between the degree of disc degeneration and serum uric acid level in male and female patients(P>0.05).To conclude,in patients with hyperuricemia,the higher serum uric acid level indicates the more serious intervertebral disc degeneration.Therefore,hyperuricemia is one of the risk factors for intervertebral disc degeneration.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To delineate the morphological features of pedicle-facet joints in lumbar spondylolysis patients, correlating these with spinopelvic parameters to explore their mechanisms and clinical implications.Methods:This study enrolled 121 patients with L 5 spondylolysis (IS group), 108 with L 4, 5 degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS group), and 100 with normal L 4, 5 but L 5S 1 lumbar disc herniation (NL group), who underwent radiography and multislice spiral CT from May 2020 to January 2023. Parameters including vertebral slip percentage (SP) and spinopelvic alignments, such as sacral slope and lumbar lordosis, were quantified using standing lateral lumbar radiographs. Morphological parameters of the L 4 and L 5 facet joints were measured on 3D reconstructed lumbar CT images, including the facet joint angle (FJA), pedicle-facet joint angle (PFA), facet joint osteoarthritis (OA), and facet joint tropism (FT). Results:The analysis revealed significant variances in SS and LL among the groups ( F=21.910, P<0.001; F=22.439, P<0.001). The IS group exhibited the highest SS and LL, followed by the DS and NL groups. Morphological assessments showed the largest L 4 FJA in the IS group, with progressive decreases in the DS and NL groups ( F=344.791, P<0.001). Conversely, L 4 PFA was greatest in the DS group ( F=193.725, P<0.001). Notably, L 4 OA was markedly more severe in the DS group compared to IS and NL groups ( H=467.925, P<0.001), with no significant disparity between IS and NL groups ( P>0.05). Correlation analyses within each cohort highlighted a negative association of sacral slope and lumbar lordosis with facet joint angles, yet a positive correlation with pedicle-facet joint angles both with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Furthermore, L 4 facet joint angles were consistently smaller than those at L 5, and L 4 pedicle-facet joint angles were larger than L 5 ( P<0.05). Osteoarthritis at L 5 was more pronounced in the IS group compared to L 4 ( Z=7.043, P<0.001), a trend inversely observed in the DS group ( Z=11.868, P<0.001), while the NL group showed no significant osteoarthritic variance between levels ( Z=0.556, P=0.578). Conclusion:Patients with lumbar spondylolysis demonstrate elevated sacral slope and lumbar lordosis, indicative of increased localized biomechanical stress in the lumbar spine. These alterations in the morphology of the pedicle-facet joints highlight the distinctive structural adaptations and potential strain distributions within this cohort.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of nucleic acid matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF MS)in sputum smear-negative patients with nontuberculous Mycobacterial(NTM)pulmonary disease.Methods:Clinical data of 123 patients suspected of NTM pulmonary disease admitted in Public Health Clinical Center Affiliated to Shandong University between July 2022 and November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)specimens were collected for MALDI-TOF MS assay and MGIT 960 culture. The diagnostic efficacy of MALDI-TOF MS for NTM pulmonary disease in patients with negative sputum smears for acid-fast bacilli was evaluated with receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 software and MedCalc statistical software.Results:Diagnosis of NTM pulmonary disease was finally confirmed in 66 out of the 123 suspected patients. It took 8 to 24 h for MALDI-TOF MS to identify NTM species and resistance. By MALDI-TOF MS,72 NTM strains were identified,with the Mycobacterium avium complex being the most prevalent(34 strains,47.22%),followed by the Mycobacterium abscessus complex(13 strains,18.06%);resistance to macrolides was detected in 6 cases,while no resistance to aminoglycosides was found. It took 9 to 45 days for BALF MGIT 960 culture to identify NTM,and took 7 to 15 days for NTM typing and drug sensitivity testing. By BALF MGIT 960 culture,28 NTM strains were identified;and 1 case was found to be resistant to macrolides. Using confirmed diagnosis as the gold standard,MALDI-TOF MS demonstrated higher sensitivity,negative predictive value,and agreement rate compared to MGIT 960 culture(84.85% vs. 42.42%,81.13% vs. 56.32%,80.49% vs. 62.60%, χ2=25.667,8.998,9.664, P<0.05 or <0.01). The area under ROC curve(AUC)for MALDI-TOF MS was significantly higher than that of MGIT 960 culture(0.801 vs. 0.642, Z=3.300, P=0.001). Conclusion:Compared to MGIT 960 culture,MALDI-TOF MS exhibits superior diagnostic efficiency in detecting NTM pulmonary disease in patients with acid-fast bacilli smear-negative sputum,with advantage of rapidly identifying NTM species and resistance.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the effect of Nodal on the biological behavior of retinal vascular endothelial cells (RF/6A cells) in monkeys with high glucose.Methods:RF/6A cells were divided into normal group, mannitol group, high glucose group, high glucose combined with non-specific small interfering RNA treatment group (HG+NC group), high glucose combined with small interfering Nodal treatment group (HG+siNodal group). The transfection efficiency of siNodal was observed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and western blot protein immunoblotting. The effect of Nodal on the proliferation of RF/6A cells was detected by thiazole blue colorimetry. The effect of Nodal on migration ability of RF/6A cells was detected by cell scratch assay. The effect of Nodal on the formation of RF/6A cell lumen was measured by Matrigel three-dimensional in vitro. The expression of extracellular signal phosphorylated regulated kinase 1/2 (pERK1/2) in RF/6A cells was detected by western blot protein immunoblotting. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare groups.Results:Compared with HG+NC group, Nodal protein ( F=33.469) and mRNA relative expression levels ( F=38.191) in HG+siNodal group were significantly decreased, cell proliferation was significantly decreased ( F=28.548), and cell migration ability was significantly decreased ( F=24.182). The number of cell lumen formation was significantly decreased ( F=52.643), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with HG+NC group, the relative expression of pERK1/2 protein in HG+siNodal group was significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=44.462, P<0.01). Conclusions:Silencing Nodal expression can inhibit proliferation, migration and tube formation of RF/6A cells induced by high glucose. It may act by inhibiting pERK1/2 expression.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of varicella in Chongqing from 2014 to 2020, and to provide evidence for the development of scientific and effective varicella control strategies. Methods Data on the outbreak of varicella and vaccination in Chongqing from 2014 to 2020 were collected through the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and descriptive epidemiological methods were used for statistical analysis. Results A total of 181 551 cases of varicella were reported in Chongqing from 2014 to 2020, with an average annual incidence rate of 83.79 per 100 000. The incidence rate of varicella increased from 39.95 per 100 000 in 2014 to 81.88 per 100 000 in 2020 (P < 0.001). The incidence of varicella was seasonal, with the peak periods occurring from May to June and from October to December each year. The average annual incidence rate in municipal districts was 88.90/100 000, higher than 67.42/100 000 in counties and 82.50/100 000 in autonomous counties. The average annual incidence rate of varicella in males (87.13/100 000) was higher than that in females (80.38/100 000). The incidence of varicella was mainly distributed in people under 15 years old, with 143 508 cases (79.10%) reported, and the highest incidence age was 5-9 years old (37.00%). Among the affected occupations , 133 733 cases (62.6%) were students , 39 274 cases (18.40%) were children in nursery care, and 17 963 cases (8.4%) were scattered children. The actual number of doses of varicella vaccine from 2014 to 2020 was 2 302 522 doses, with the coverage rates of one-dose and two-dose vaccines being 75.56% and 32.17%, respectively. ARIMA predicted that there would be 2 604, 811, 756, 1 226, 2 405, 3 904, 2 410, 1 211, 2 034, 6 878, 10 887, and 8 955 cases of varicella from January to December 2021. Conclusion The incidence of varicella in Chongqing is on the rise, with obvious seasonal, regional and population distribution characteristics. It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of varicella epidemic, strengthen the prevention and control measures of key groups and key institutions in the high incidence season, strengthen the publicity of varicella vaccine, and improve the vaccination rate of two-doses of varicella vaccine for eligible children.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Osteoking (OK) on postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP). MethodForty adult female mice were randomly divided into a sham operation (Sham) group, osteoporosis model (OVX) group, estradiol intervention (E2) group, and OK group, with 10 mice in each group. The modeling was completed by conventional back double incision ovariectomy, and the corresponding drugs were given one week later. After 12 weeks, the body mass and uterine index of mice were measured, and the pathological changes of bone tissue and the number of osteoclasts (OCs) were determined by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, respectively. Bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) were measured by microcomputed tomography (Micro-CT). The maximum load of the femur was detected by a three-point bending test. The contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and bone resorption marker C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen (CTX-1) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein expression levels of nuclear factor-kappa B p65 (NF-κB p65), phosphorylated nuclear factor-kappa B p65 (p-NF-κB p65), nuclear factor kappa B inhibitor alpha (IκBα), phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa B alpha (p-IκBα), nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1), and proto-oncogene (c-Fos) were detected by Western blot. The mRNA expressions of OCs-related specific genes matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), NFATc1, TRAP, cathepsin K (CTSK), and c-Fos were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultCompared with the Sham group, the uterine index decreased significantly in the OVX group, and the body mass (BMI) increased significantly. The structure of bone trabeculae was completely damaged, and the number of OCs increased. BMD, Tb.N, BV/TV, and maximum load decreased, while Tb.Sp was up-regulated. The levels of TNF-α and CTX-1 in serum were up-regulated. The protein expressions of c-Fos, p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65, NFATc1, and p-IκBα/IκBα were increased. The mRNA expressions of NFATc1, c-Fos, CTSK, TRAP, and MMP-9 were up-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the OVX group, the body mass of the OK and E2 groups decreased, and the uterine index increased. The bone trabeculae increased, and the number of OCs decreased. BMD, Tb.N, BV/TV, and maximum load increased, while Tb.Sp decreased. The levels of TNF-α and CTX-1 in serum were decreased. The protein expressions of c-Fos, p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65, NFATc1, and p-IκBα/IκBα were decreased, and the mRNA expressions of NFATc1, c-Fos, CTSK, TRAP, and MMP-9 were decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionOK can inhibit the NF-κB/NFATc1 signaling pathway and reduce bone mass loss by reducing the level of inflammatory injury factors in PMOP mice, which is one of the mechanisms for treating PMOP.

ABSTRACT

Three carboline fluorescent probes F1-F3 were designed and synthesized, based on lead compound JYJ-19, an antifungal compound discovered previously by our group. The antifungal activity in vitro results showed that compound F1 had moderate antifungal activity (MIC80 = 32 μg·mL-1). The stokes shift of F1 is 70 nm. The fluorescent probe F1 has good optical properties and can be used for fluorescence imaging research. Subcellular localization experiments results showed that F1 was enriched in the mitochondria of fungal cells. The detection of intracellular reactive oxygen species levels shows that JYJ-19 enhances intracellular reactive oxygen species levels. The above results indicated that carboline compounds could exert antifungal effects by acting on fungal mitochondria.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for the safe administration of patients with atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, placenta praevia hemorrhage and thrombocytopenia-threatened abortion after the operation of congenital heart disease. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, placenta praevia hemorrhage and thrombocytopenia-threatened abortion after the operation of congenital heart disease. Given the thrombocytopenia caused by enoxaparin sodium, pharmacists suggested to stop enoxaparin sodium and change it to fondaparinux sodium after a blood routine review. For the patient with fast heart rate and low blood pressure, pharmacists recommended to choose metoprolol and adjust the dosage according to the heart rate, and change furosemide to hydrochlorothiazide. Pharmacists recommended to continue using metoprolol regarding doctors’ plan to replace metoprolol with sotalol before cesarean section. For possible drug interactions in the patient, pharmacists recommended to closely monitor blood potassium and other indicators, and provided drug education. RESULTS The doctors adopted the advice of clinical pharmacists. The patient’s bleeding was controlled, the indicators were kept stable during hospitalization, the gestational week was extended smoothly, and the cesarean section was successfully performed. CONCLUSIONS By participating in the treatment of the patient with atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, placenta praevia hemorrhage and thrombocytopenia-threatened abortion after the operation of congenital heart disease, clinical pharmacists formulate individualized medication plans for the patient based on adverse drug reactions, drug interactions and medication education, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medication.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate a suspected outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)healthcare-associated bloodstream infection(HA-BSI),provide reference for effective control of CRKP in-fection.Methods The characteristics of CRKP infected patients and the risk factors for the event transmission in an adult hematology department of a teaching hospital in June 2022 were obtained by field epidemiological investigation.The specimens of environmental target strains were co-llected by blood nutrient agar inoculation,the removal status of environmental microorganisms and the effect of infection control after implementing control measures were com-pared.Results There were a total of 6 cases of CRKP HA-BSI,with an attacking rate of 1.29%(6/464),which was significantly higher than 0 during the same period in 2021,and difference was statistically significant(P=0.011).In environmental hygiene monitoring,the detection rate of CRKP was 2.27%(1/44),which was from the surface of bed curtain in the living unit of infected patients,homology analysis with CRKP detected from 2 patients revealed that the 16s RNA of 3 CRKP strains was completely identical,with a similarity of 100%.Seven house-keeping genes of 3 CRKP strains were all identical and belonged to the ST11 type.Comprehensive control measures were taken:appropriate closure of the ward,centralized isolation of patients,terminal disinfection of the ward,reg-ular health care workers and relative restriction of their activity areas.After the measures were taken,the qualified rate of microbial colony count in the ward increased compared to before taking the measures(2.27%vs 68.89%,P<0.001),with a statistically significant difference,there were no more CRKP infected cases after the intervention,indicating that the control measures were effective.Conclusion This outbreak was caused by ST11 type of common CRKP in China,and laminar bed curtains are carriers of pathogen transmission.It is speculated that non-standard cleaning and disinfection,as well as inadequate implementation of hand hygiene are the main causes for transmis-sion.Adopting an appropriate strategy of closing the ward and concentrating patient isolation can quickly and effec-tively prevent the transmission of the event.

ABSTRACT

Objectives:To compare the efficacies of posterior screw-rod fixation and fusion without bone graft and with bone graft in the treatment of unstable Hangman's fracture.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 39 patients with unstable Hangman's fracture who underwent posterior cervical screw-rod internal fixation in our hospital between January 2014 and December 2020 and were followed up for more than 2 years were analyzed retrospectively,and the follow-up period was 3.2±1.9 years(range from 2 to 9 years).There were 31 males and 8 females with an average age of 43.1±16.1 years(13-70 years).Among the patients,22 cases received simple posterior screw-rod fixation(non-bone graft group:group A),and 17 cases received posterior screw-rod fixation and autogenous iliac bone graft fusion(bone graft group:group B).The operative time and intraoperative blood loss,postoperative complications,the visual analogue scale(VAS)preoperatively,at 1 week,3 months and final follow-up after surgery,and neck disability index(NDI)preoperatively,at 3 months and final follow-up after surgery,and American Spinal Cord Injury Association(ASIA)grade preoperatively and at final follow-up,and Odom's grade at final follow-up were recorded and compared between the two groups.The displacement,angulation of C2/3 and cervical lordosis angle were measured on lateral X-ray films before operation,at 1 week after operation and final follow-up.The fracture healing,and C2/3 posterior facet joint and interbody fusion were observed on anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films and three-dimensional CT images.Results:All the 39 patients completed the operation successfully.The operative time was 99.3±14.2min in group A and 137.9±19.5min in group B,the intraoperative blood loss was 94.6±12.6mL in group A and 140.6±17.8mL in group B,and group A was shorter in operative time and less in blood loss(P<0.05).Superficial incision infection occurred in 2 cases in group A and 1 case in group B,and 4 cases of pain in bone donor area occurred in group B,all of which were improved after symptomatic treatment.The VAS score at postoperative 1 week and 3 months,and final follow-up,and NDI at postoperative 3 months and final follow-up of both groups all significantly improved than those before operation(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in the indexes mentioned above between the two groups at each follow-up time point(P>0.05).At final follow-up,there was no significant difference in ASIA classification and Odom's grade between the two groups(P>0.05).The angulation,displacement of C2/3 and cervical lordosis angle in the two groups were significantly improved at 1 week after operation and final follow-up(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the indexes mentioned above between the two groups at each follow-up time point(P>0.05).At final follow-up,all the patients achieved solid bony fusions of fracture lines.In group A,spontaneous fusion at bilateral C2/3 facet joints was found in all the patients,spontaneous fusion of the anterior edge of vertebral body occurred in 1 case,spontaneous fusion of the posterior edge of vertebral body occurred in 9 cases,and spontaneous fusion of both anterior and posterior edges of vertebral body occurred in 4 cases.In group B,bony fusion of bilateral C2/3 facet joints was achieved in all the patients,no spontaneous fusion of the anterior edge of vertebral body,spontaneous fusion of the posterior edge of vertebral body occurred in 10 cases,and spontaneous fusion of both anterior and posterior edges of vertebral body occurred in 3 cases.At final follow-up,there was no statistical difference in the results of C2/3 facet joints and interbody fusion between the two groups(all facet joints were fused in both groups,and the interbody fusion rates in groups A and B were 63%and 76%,respectively)(P>0.05).Conclusions:Posterior screw-rod fixation and fusion without or with bone graft can both achieve satisfactory clinical results in the treatment of unstable Hangman's fracture,with similar postoperative C2/3 facet joint and interbody fusion rates.Non-bone graft fusion can shorten the operative time,reduce intraoperative blood loss and avoid iliac bone removal-related complications.

ABSTRACT

Myopia is a serious threat to children's visual health, and high myopia can not only cause vision loss, but also lead to severe complications and even blindness. In recent years, with the rising incidence of myopia and the increasing awareness of myopia, the problem of myopia has been widely concerned. At present, the specific mechanism of the incidence and progression of myopia remains ambiguous, and it is generally believed that the sclera is the effector of myopia. With the development of myopia and axial growth, the structure and function of the eyeball change accordingly. The high rates of axial length growth leads to scleral remodeling and accelerated thinning of the posterior pole sclera. Myopia changes the normal tissue structure and biomechanical properties of the sclera, and the regulation of related gene expression is the key to these changes. With the help of myopia animal models and gene sequencing technology, a large number of researchers have found that scleral extracellular matrix remodeling is closely related to the occurrence and development of myopia. This paper discusses the changes of sclera structure and related genes in the development of myopia. It provides ideas for exploring the mechanism of scleral remodeling in myopia and finding new target of treatment.

ABSTRACT

There are huge differences between tumor cells and normal cells in material metabolism, and tumor cells mainly show increased anabolism, decreased catabolism, and imbalance in substance metabolism. These differences provide the necessary material basis for the growth and reproduction of tumor cells, and also provide important targets for the treatment of tumors. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of cell death characterized by an imbalance of iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and lipid membrane antioxidant systems in cells, resulting in excessive accumulation of lipid peroxide, causing damage to lipid membrane structure and loss of function, and ultimately cell death. The regulation of ferroptosis involves a variety of metabolic pathways, including glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, nucleotide metabolism and iron metabolism. In order for tumor cells to grow rapidly, their metabolic needs are more vigorous than those of normal cells. Tumor cells are metabolically reprogrammed to meet their rapidly proliferating material and energy needs. Metabolic reprogramming is mainly manifested in glycolysis and enhancement of pentose phosphate pathway, enhanced glutamine metabolism, increased nucleic acid synthesis, and iron metabolism tends to retain more intracellular iron. Metabolic reprogramming is accompanied by the production of reactive oxygen species and the activation of the antioxidant system. The state of high oxidative stress makes tumor cells more susceptible to redox imbalances, causing intracellular lipid peroxidation, which ultimately leads to ferroptosis. Therefore, in-depth study of the molecular mechanism and metabolic basis of ferroptosis is conducive to the development of new therapies to induce ferroptosis in cancer treatment. Ferroptosis, as a regulated form of cell death, can induce ferroptosis in tumor cells by pharmacologically or genetically targeting the metabolism of substances in tumor cells, which has great potential value in tumor treatment. This article summarizes the effects of cellular metabolism on ferroptosis in order to find new targets for tumor treatment and provide new ideas for clinical treatment.
