ABSTRACT

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease driven by antigens and mediated by T cells. Collagen II (CII) and fibrinogen (Fib) are the two main antigens in the pathogenesis of RA. The antigen produced after citrulline modification (Cit) is also one of the inducements to induce the body to produce a pathogenic anti-citrulline protein antibody (ACPA). To provide a reference for RA-related research, this study intends to establish an RA animal model by using CII, Cit-CII, Fib, and Cit-Fib antigens, emulsification with complete Freund's adjuvant and immunization with DBA/1 mice, respectively, to compare the pathological characteristics of RA models induced by different antigens from the aspects of pathology, imaging and serum biochemistry. Animal welfare and experimental process are in accordance with the regulations of the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The results showed that the CII, Cit-CII, and Cit-Fib induced mice all had symptoms such as joint redness and swelling, and toe deformation and the clinical score and incidence rate were higher than those of the normal group. The CII group had the most serious lesions, with a incidence rate of 100%, and the Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups had mild symptoms, with a incidence rate of 25% and 37.5%, respectively; pathological and imaging examination results showed that the joints of mice in CII-induced group showed severe synovial inflammation, cartilage and bone destruction, while those in Cit-CII and Cit-Fib group showed only slight inflammatory infiltration, joint cavity stenosis and bone destruction; the results of serum antibody detection showed that CII, Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups all produced high levels of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies, among which, Cit-Fib group > Cit-CII group > CII group > Fib group, and both Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups produced high levels of citrullinated epitope-specific antibodies, while the total IgG level was the highest in CII group; serum ELISA and RT-PCR analysis of joint tissue showed that the expression of pro-inflammatory factors and bone destruction-related molecules increased most significantly in the CII-induced group, followed by Cit-Fib and Cit-CII. The above results showed that among the four different antigens, the symptoms and conditions of arthritis in RA mice induced by CII were the most serious, and IgG instead of anti-CCP antibody was its typical immunological feature, and CII could be the first choice for the model of RA mice; Cit-Fib has certain immunogenicity, can partially induce the symptoms and conditions of RA arthritis in mice, and produce high-level anti-CCP antibody and anti-Cit-Fib antibody, which is more suitable for the study of citrulline-related RA; although Cit-CII has certain immunogenicity, the incidence, and severity of RA arthritis induced by Cit-CII in mice are low.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the medical reference values, distribution characteristics and influencing factors of serum iodine in adults with different thyroid health conditions, and to evaluate the importance of serum iodine in evaluating individual iodine nutrition.Methods:From February 2017 to November 2018, multi-stage stratified cluster sampling was used to select one community and one agricultural (fishing) village in the coastal Yingkou City and the inland areas of Shenyang City of Liaoning Province as survey sites. Cluster sampling of adults over 18 years old who had lived for five years were conducted with questionnaire survey, clinical physical examination and thyroid ultrasound examination. Fasting venous blood samples and one random urine sample were collected from all subjects for serum iodine, thyroid hormone, antibody and urine iodine detection. The 95% medical reference value of serum iodine was established by using the percentage quantile method, and the reference value, distribution characteristics and influencing factors of serum iodine in adults with different thyroid health status were analyzed. The diagnostic value of iodine nutritional indicators in thyroid diseases was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:A total of 2 931 adults were surveyed, with serum iodine levels of 62.1 (53.6, 72.2) μg/L, ranging from 5.6 to 642.3 μg/L; urine iodine was 167.6 (111.2, 244.2) μg/L, and the overall iodine level was at an appropriate level. A total of 1 089 patients with thyroid diseases were examined, with a detection rate of 37.2% (1 089/2 931); among them, there were 597 cases of thyroid nodules, 56 cases of endemic goiter, 42 cases of hypothyroidism, 161 cases of subclinical hypothyroidism, 27 cases of hyperthyroidism, 18 cases of subclinical hyperthyroidism, and 474 cases of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD). There was a statistically significant difference in the detection of thyroid diseases among adults with different levels of serum iodine (χ 2 = 13.80, P < 0.05). The reference values of serum iodine in normal adults, hypothyroidism (without thyroid hormone intervention), hyperthyroidism (without anti thyroid hormone drug treatment), AITD, endemic goiter, and thyroid nodules were 37.2 - 103.0, 12.5 - 52.8, 49.9 - 163.1, 34.3 - 129.3, 27.3 - 92.8, and 37.9 - 119.5 μg/L, respectively. The ROC curve analysis results showed that the serum iodine area under curve(AUC) of patients with hyperthyroidism, subclinical hyperthyroidism, endemic goiter, thyroid nodules, and AITD were 0.94, 0.61, 0.55, 0.53, and 0.52, respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in adult serum iodine levels among different positions, regions, age, education level, occupation, iodine intake, blood pressure, and body mass index ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:There are significant differences in serum iodine levels among adults with different thyroid health conditions, and evaluation standards and systems should be developed separately. Serum iodine is an important indicator for evaluating individual iodine nutrition.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the role of Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway in liver injury induced by neodymium oxide (Nd(2)O(3)) in mice. Methods: In March 2021, forty-eight SPF grade healthy male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group (0.9% NaCl), low dose group (62.5 mg/ml Nd(2)O(3)), medium dose group (125.0 mg/ml Nd(2)O(3)), and high dose group (250.0 mg/ml Nd(2)O(3)), each group consisted of 12 animals. The infected groups were treated with Nd(2)O(3) suspension by non-exposed tracheal drip and were killed 35 days after dust exposure. The liver weight of each group was weighed and the organ coefficient was calculated. The content of Nd(3+) in liver tissue was detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). HE staining and immunofluorescence was used to observe the changes of inflammation and nuclear entry. The mRNA expression levels of Keap1, Nrf2 and HO-1 in mice liver tissue were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of Keap1 and HO-1. The contents of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) were detected by colorimetric method. The contents of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were determined by ELISA. The data was expressed in Mean±SD. Two-independent sample t-test was used for inter-group comparison, and one-way analysis of variance was used for multi-group comparison. Results: Compared with the control group, the liver organ coefficient of mice in medium and high dose groups were increased, and the Nd(3+) accumulation in liver of mice in all dose groups were significantly increased (P<0.05). Pathology showed that the structure of liver lobules in the high dose group was slightly disordered, the liver cells showed balloon-like lesions, the arrangement of liver cell cords was disordered, and the inflammatory exudation was obvious. Compared with the control group, the levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in liver tissue of mice in all dose groups were increased, and the levels of TNF-α in liver tissue of mice in high dose group were increased (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expression levels of Keap1 in high dose group were significantly decreased, while the mRNA expression level of Nrf2, the mRNA and protein expression levels of HO-1 were significantly increased (P<0.05), and Nrf2 was successfully activated into the nucleus. Compared with the control group, the activities of CAT, GSH-Px and T-SOD in high dose group were significantly decreased (P<0.05) . Conclusion: A large amount of Nd(2)O(3) accumulates in the liver of male mice, which may lead to oxidative stress and inflammatory response through activation of Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signal pathway. It is suggested that Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signal pathway may be one of the mechanisms of Nd(2)O(3) expose-induced liver injury in mice.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the material basis and mechanism of Nardostachyos Radix et Rhizoma (NRER)-Agrimoniae Herba (AH), the herbal pair effective in regulating the liver, invigorating Qi, and calming palpitations, in the treatment of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) by network pharmacology and molecular docking. MethodThe chemical components and targets of NRER and AH were collected from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) combined with relevant literature. GeneCards,Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man(OMIM),and DrugBank were used to predict the potential targets against PVCs. STRING platform was used for protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis. Metascape platform was used for Gene Ontology(GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) enrichment analysis. Cytoscape 3.8.0 was used to construct the NRER-AH component-potential target-signaling pathway network. The main target proteins underwent molecular docking to the active components of NRER-AH by AutoDock 4.2.6. ResultThe targets of nine active components in NRER-AH (such as quercetin,kaempferol,and acacetin) against PVCs mainly involved tumor necrosis factor (TNF),mitogen-activated protein kinase 1(MAPK1),and protein kinase B1(Akt1). The potential targets were mainly enriched in 26 signaling pathways,such as pathways in cancer and the advanced glycosylation end product (AGE)-receptor of advanced glycosylation end product(RAGE) signaling pathway. The results of molecular docking showed that the majority of the active components (92.59%) of NRER-AH had good binding activities with the main target proteins TNF,MAPK1,and Akt1. ConclusionThe active components of NRER-AH can regulate cardiac ion channels,resist inflammation, and combat oxidative stress to treat PVCs through multi-target and multi-pathway interventions. They can also improve symptoms related to depression and anxiety by inhibiting monoamine oxidase activity and protecting nerves from damage. This study is expected to provide research ideas and the theoretical basis for further exploring the material basis and mechanism of NRER-AH in the treatment of PVCs.

ABSTRACT

Graduate education emphasizes the development of students’ scientific research andinnovation abilities. Literature reading and discussion (LRD) plays an active role in the development ofinnovative thinking and critical thinking for graduate students. However, in traditional, large molecularbiology classes, the effective implementation of large-scale, collective LRD presents a great challenge. Mosoteach is a cloud-based free app designed specifically for education with powerful human-computerinteraction and human-human interaction functions. In the present study, LRD was introduced into amolecular biology course for graduate students and was conducted via the Mosoteach app. The onlinediscussion board in the Mosoteach cloud class was restricted to enrolled students and was designated theprivate online discussion board (PODB). The PODB built a sense of community for students and was aneffective approach for organizing and facilitating discussion in large classes. Small-group learning in LRDwas helpful to understand the literature and foster collaboration and discussion. Overall, we demonstratedthat Mosoteach-based LRD was helpful in improving student learning outcomes. The relationship betweenstudent learning style and engagement, satisfaction and academic performance in cloud classes meritsfurther investigation.

ABSTRACT

With the deepening of China's medical reform, the scale of hospital equipment assets at all levels is also expanding. In the face of large-scale and various equipment assets, the traditional single machine statistical management method not only has a single interface, poor data accuracy and is not compatible with other systems, but also is difficult to achieve "full life cycle" management. In order to solve above problems, the Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University of Medicine aims to use the Internet of Things to build a medical equipment management information platform, realize the whole hospital area, whole subject and whole process management of medical materials, and achieve the objectives of business linkage, information connectivity and data sharing between management departments and clinical departments.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the role of formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) in the inhibitory effects of Buyang Huanwutang (BYHWT) on the oxidative stress and its protective effects on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Method:Forty-eight male SD rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, BYHWT group and BYHWT combined with FPR2 inhibitor (Boc-2) group. In the sham group, only the vessels were isolated. In other groups, the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was constructed using the modified Longa method and reperfused after 2 h of ischemia. BYHWT (16 g·kg<sup>-1</sup>) was given by gavaged twice daily after reperfusion in BYHWT group and BYHWT+Boc-2 group. Boc-2 (0.4 mg·kg<sup>-1</sup>) was injected intraperitoneally 30 min before surgery. Equal volume of saline were given instead in sham and model group. After 24 h of reperfusion, Fluoro-Jade C (FJC) staining was performed to observe the changes in the number of FJC-positive cells. Western blot was performed to detect the expression of apoptosis-related B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 associated X (Bax), and cleaved aspartic acid cysteine proteolytic enzyme-3(Caspase-3). Besides, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and nitric oxide (NO) was measured. The mean fluorescence intensity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate Ⅱ(NADPH) oxidase 2 (NOX2) was examined by immunofluorescence. Result:Compared with sham group, the model group showed increased number of FJC-positive cells (<italic>P</italic><0.01), decreased Bcl-2 expression (<italic>P</italic><0.01), increased Bax and cleaved Caspase-3 expression (<italic>P</italic><0.01), increased NO and MDA content (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01), decreased GSH and SOD activities (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01), and increased NOX2 expression (<italic>P</italic><0.01). Compared with model group, there were decreased FJC-positive cells (<italic>P</italic><0.01), up-regulated Bcl-2 expression (<italic>P</italic><0.01) with down-regulated cleaved Caspase-3 and Bax (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01), decreased NO and MDA (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01) with increased GSH and SOD (<italic>P</italic><0.01), and decreased NOX2 expression (<italic>P</italic><0.01) in the BYHWT group. All the above effects were partially blocked by Boc-2. Conclusion:BYHWT can reduce oxidative stress injury and inhibit apoptosis in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion rats, which may be related with the down-regulation of NOX2 expression by FPR2.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the role of hippocampal γ oscillation abnormality in sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).Methods:Seventy male Sprague-Dawley rats (2-3 months) were randomly (random number) divided into three groups according to the random digital table method: sham, CLP, and CLP + dopamine 4 (D4) receptor agonists RO-10-5824 group. The SAE animal model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). On day 10-14 after surgery, the open field, novel object recognition, and fear conditioning tests were performed. After that, the hippocampus was collected to measure expressions of parvalbumin (PV) and D4 receptor. In another set of experiment, CA1 local field potential (LFP) were recorded, and the relationship between LFP and time with novel object was analyzed. Independent sample t-test was used for pairwise comparisons, and multiple comparisons were performed by one-way ANOVA, followed by the Tukey multiple comparisons test. Correlation was analyzed using Pearson correlation. Statistical significance was assumed when P<0.05. Results:Compared with the sham group, hippocampal PV (77.54±4.61)%, D4 expression (56.36±3.88)% and γ oscillation power (41.1±8.62)%, object exposure time (36±3) s, new object recognition rate (49±4)%, and scene stiffness time (56±7) s were decreased significantly ( P<0.05). However, RO-10-5824 treatment could increase hippocaml γ oscillation power (92.3±6.7)%, and reverse the decreased new object exposure time (44±3) s and new object recognition rate (63±4)%. Correlation analysis showed that hippocampal γ oscillation power was positively associated with new object exposure time ( r=0.609 2, P=0.015 9). There was no difference in total distance traveled or time spent in the center among groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Hippocampal γ oscillation abnormality might play a key role in cognitive impairment associated with SAE.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the DNA methylation of nucleated cells in peripheral blood of patients died from anaphylactic shock caused by cephalosporin drugs and to provide a new research direction and basis for the forensic diagnosis of shock caused by drug hypersensitiveness. Methods Methylation microarray was used to detect DNA methylation of nucleated cells in peripheral blood of patients died from anaphylactic shock caused by cephalosporin drugs and normal subjects. Sequencing data and chip data were analyzed for differences in DNA methylation using R language methylkit, ChAMP package. Random forest algorithm was used to evaluate the importance of the DNA methylation differential sites. Results Differential sites of DNA methylation highly associated with anaphylaxis caused by cephalosporin drugs were obtained at loci such as ETS1, PRR23B and GNAS. Conclusion Cephalosporin allergy is associated with DNA methylation, and DNA methylation may be a new strategy for forensic identification of anaphylactic shock and death.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate whether RvDl regulates microglial polarization through FPR2 and alleviates the inflammatory damage after cerebral ischemiareperfusion. Methods The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established by Longa method. The rats after MCAO were randomly divided into; model group, RvD1 group and RvD1 + Boc-2 group, and a sham-operated group was set up as control as well. Cerebral infarct volume was measured, MPO activities in rat brain were measured by immunofluorescence. The expression and localization of FPR2/Iba-1, CD16/Iba-1 and CD206/Iba-1 were detected by immunofluorescence double labeling method. The expressions of TNF-α, IL-1β and iNOS in M1 and TGF-β, IL-10, Arg-1 in M2 were detected by RT-qPCR. Results RvDl significantly reduced cerebral infarction volume and the expression of MPO, and its receptor FPR2 was expressed in microglia. RvD1 down-regulated M1 markers CD16

ABSTRACT

Objective:To understand the iodine nutrition states of children in Dongtai City Jiangsu Province by analyzing the urinary iodine level of children aged 0 - 12 years old (prepubescent children), so as to provide scientific reference for prepubescent children's reasonable iodine nutrition intake.Methods:Under the guidance of the "National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Monitoring Program" (2016), Dongtai City was divided into 5 districts according to the east, west, south, north and middle locations. In each district, children aged 0 - 7 years old who underwent physical examination in township hospitals and prevention and health centers were selected to collect urine samples for urine iodine testing. One township was selected from each district, and one primary school was selected from each township. At least 90 children aged 8 to 12 (half boys and half girls) were selected from each primary school to collect urine samples for urine iodine testing. The urinary iodine levels of children of different genders, ages and regions were compared and analyzed.Results:A total of 2 934 urine samples were collected. The median of urinary iodine was 191.9 μg/L, ranging from 1.4 to 627.9 μg/L, the proportion of urine iodine content < 50 μg/L was 5.5% (162/2 934), the proportion of 50 - 99 μg/L was 10.9% (319/2 934), the proportion of 100 - 199 μg/L was 37.4% (1 096/2 934), the proportion of 200 - 299 μg/L was 28.3% (829/2 934), and the proportion of ≥300 μg/L was 18.0% (528/2 934). A total of 1 535 and 1 399 urine samples of boys and girls were collected. The medians urinary iodine of boys and girls were 202.3 and 177.7 μg/L, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = - 5.487, P < 0.05). There were 106, 1 539, 753 and 536 cases of infants (0 - 12 months old), early childhood (1 - 3 years old), preschool children (4 - 6 years old), and school-age children (7 - 12 years old), the medians urinary iodine were 169.8, 189.6, 169.9 and 243.7 μg/L, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( H = 127.395, P < 0.05). There were 642, 699, 422, 738 and 433 cases in different regions (east, west, south, north and middle) and the medians urinary iodine were 194.2, 172.7, 196.8, 200.5 and 196.6 μg/L, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( H = 29.461, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Children aged 0 - 12 years old in Dongtai City are not deficient in iodine on the whole, but those with urinary iodine value higher than 200 μg/L account for a large proportion. Therefore, a reasonable iodine nutrition plan should be implemented according to the actual situation. In addition, individual iodine deficiency and excess should also be paid attention to.
