ABSTRACT

Objective@#The study aims to explore the neural mechanism of cognitive differences in college students with posttraumatic stress disorder under verbal fluency task based on functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), so as to provide neuroimaging support for the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder(PTSD).@*Methods@#Posttaumatic Stress Disorder Checklist Combat(PCL-C) was used to screen the subjects, including 21 students in PTSD group (PCL-C≥38) and 30 students in control group from September to Novenber in 2020. A 53 channel near infrared spectroscopy device was used to collect cerebral blood oxygen signals under the verbal fluency task, and correlation analysis, Mann Whitney U test and independent sample t test were performed on the results.@*Results@#The difference in the total average score of PCL-C Scale between PTSD group and the control group(46.38±6.96,25.57±6.09) was statistically significant ( t=11.33, P <0.05). Correlation analysis showed that Avg-HbO in left dorsolateral prefrontal lobe was negatively correlated with PCL-C Score ( r=-0.37, P <0.05). Mann Whitney U test showed that in the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobe (Ch6), the Avg-HbO change in PTSD group [0.19(-0.09, 0.86)mmol/(L〖KG*7〗·mm)] was significantly lower than the control group [0.79( 0.37 , 1.47)mmol/(L ·mm)] ( Z=2.16, P <0.05), which was statistically significant.@*Conclusions@#The degree of PTSD was negatively correlated with the index of oxygenated hemoglobin in the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobe, and the oxygenated hemoglobin content in the PTSD group was lower than that in the normal group. In the future, fNIRS may be used to collect blood oxygen signals from the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobe in cognitive tasks to provide imaging evidence for the identification of PTSD.

ABSTRACT

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease caused by inflammatory cells. Various inflammatory cells involved in RA include fibroblast-like synoviocytes, macrophages, CD4+T-lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, osteoclasts and chondrocytes. The close interaction between various inflammatory cells leads to imbalance of immune response and disorder of the expression of mRNA in inflammatory cells. It helps to drive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and stimulate specific antigen-specific T- and B-lymphocytes to produce autoantibodies which is an important pathogenic factor for RA. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) can regulate the expression of mRNA by competitively binding to miRNA. The related ceRNA network is a new regulatory mechanism for RNA interaction. It has been found to be involved in the regulation of abnormal biological processes such as proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and release of inflammatory factors of RA inflammatory cells. Understanding the ceRNA network in 6 kinds of RA common inflammatory cells provides a new idea for further elucidating the pathogenesis of RA, and provides a theoretical basis for the discovery of new biomarkers and effective therapeutic targets.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze recurrence and progression patterns of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) in patients without whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and assess the value of WBRT in PCNSL treatment.@*METHODS@#This retrospective single-center study included 27 patients with PCNSL, who experienced recurrence/progression after achieving complete remission (CR), partial remission, or stable disease following initial treatments with chemotherapy but without WBRT. The patients were followed up regularly after the treatment for treatment efficacy assessment. By comparing the anatomical location of the lesions on magnetic resonance images (MRI) at the initial diagnosis and at recurrence/progression, we analyzed the patterns of relapse/progression in patients with different treatment responses and different initial status of the lesions.@*RESULTS@#MRI data showed that in 16 (59.26%) of the 27 patients, recurrence/progression occurred in out-field area (outside the simulated clinical target volume [CTV]) but within the simulated WBRT target area in 16 (59.26%) patients, and within the CTV (in-field) in 11 (40.74%) patients. None of the patients had extracranial recurrence of the tumor. Of the 11 patients who achieved CR after the initial treatments, 9 (81.82%) had PCNSL recurrences in the out-field area but within WBRT target area; of the 13 patients with a single lesion at the initial treatment, 11 (84.62%) experienced PCNSL recurrence in the out-field area but within WBRT target area.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Systemic therapy combined with WBRT still remains the standard treatment for PCNSL patients, especially those who achieve CR after treatment or have a single initial lesion. Future prospective studies with larger sample sizes are needed to further explore the role of low-dose WBRT in PCNSL treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between hippocampal macrophage polarization and perioperative neurocognitive disorders in mice with tibial fractures.Methods:Forty-five clean-grade healthy male C57/BL6 mice, aged 5-7 months, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C), anesthesia group (group A) and anesthesia surgery group (group AS). Group C received no treatment. Group A was anesthetized with isoflurane inhaled for 15 min. In AS group, intramedullary nail fixation of tibial fracture was performed under anesthesia through inhalation of 2% isoflurane. Morris water maze test and open field test were performed before anesthesia/on 1 day before surgery and after anesthesia/on 1, 3 and 7 days after operation. Five mice were randomly selected after the behavioral experiments were completed at each time point, and hippocampal tissues were taken after the animals were sacrificed for determination of the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), IL-6, chemokine (c-c motif) ligand 12 (CCL2), CCL5, CCL8, iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction), expression of iNOS and Arg-1 proteins (by Western blot), and percentage of CD11b, CD45, CD86 and CD206 cells in hippcampal area (by immunofluorescence staining). Results:Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged after operation, the number of crossing the platform was reduced after operation, the expression of TNF-ɑ, IL-6, CCL5 and CCL8 mRNA and iNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated, the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, the percentages of CD11b + CD45 + cells and CD11b + CD86 + cells in the hippocampus were increased, and the percentages of CD11b + CD206 + cells were decreased in AS group ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group A ( P>0.05). Compared with group A, the escape latency was significantly prolonged after surgery, the frequency of crossing the platform was reduced after surgery, the expression of iNOS mRNA was up-regulated, the percentages of CD11b + CD45 + cells and CD11b + CD86 + cells were increased, and the percentages of CD11b + CD206 + cells were decreased in AS group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence of PND may be related to increased polarization to M1 macrophages in the hippocampus and decreased polarization to M2 macrophages in mice with tibial fracture, which further leads to central inflammatory responses.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic values of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), endothelial cell specific molecule-1 (ESM-1) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) for lung cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 90 patients with lung cancer and 50 patients with benign lung diseases diagnosed by the pathological examination in Tangshan People's Hospital from December 2019 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and 40 healthy physical examiners in the same period were selected as the controls. The serum HE4 levels were detected by electrochemiluminescence method. The serum ESM-1 and EGFR levels were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The differences in serum HE4, ESM-1 and EGFR levels between the three groups were compared; logistic regression analysis was used to screen out the effective indicators for the diagnosis of lung cancer and to construct a prediction model for the diagnosis of lung cancer. Using pathological diagnosis result as the gold standard, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and the diagnostic efficacy of indicators for lung cancer was evaluated.Results:The levels of serum HE4 in lung cancer group, benign lung diseases group and healthy control group were 119.55 pmol/L (82.06 pmol/L, 189.00 pmol/L), 58.84 pmol/L (45.62 pmol/L, 69.41 pmol/L) and 42.67 pmol/L (37.09 pmol/L, 51.84 pmol/L), the levels of ESM-1 were 33.00 ng/ml (25.85 ng/ml, 47.40 ng/ml), 20.14 ng/ml (11.93 ng/ml, 28.90 ng/ml) and 15.39 ng/ml (11.84 ng/ml, 20.19 ng/ml), and the levels of EGFR were 46.60 pg/ml (37.45 pg/ml, 58.98 pg/ml), 32.77 pg/ml (26.27 pg/ml, 40.86 pg/ml) and 30.43 pg/ml (27.54 pg/ml, 35.75 pg/ml), and the differences in each indicator among the three groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.001). The levels of serum HE4, ESM-1 and EGFR in lung cancer group were higher than those in benign lung diseases group and healthy control group. In patients with lung cancer, logistic regression analysis was performed with HE4 (X 1), ESM-1 (X 2) and EGFR (X 3) as the independent variables and pathological diagnosis as the dependent variable, and a lung cancer prediction regression model was established: P = 0.171X 1+0.351X 2+0.184X 3-24.660. The accuracy of this model in predicting lung cancer could reach 98.5%, and serum HE4, ESM-1 and EGFR were risk factors for the occurrence of lung cancer (all P < 0.05). The area under ROC curve from high to low was HE4 (0.960), ESM-1 (0.942) and EGFR (0.859). The diagnostic sensitivity of serum HE4 63.67 pmol/L for lung cancer was 86.7%, and the specificity was 97.5%. Both serum HE4 ( r = 0.304, P = 0.004) and ESM-1 ( r = 0.416, P < 0.001) were correlated with EGFR. Conclusions:Serum HE4, ESM-1 and EGFR can be used as effective indicators for the diagnosis of lung cancer, and the prediction model established based on the three serum tumor markers is of good value for the diagnosis and prediction of lung cancer.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the performance characteristics of the digital clock-drawing test(dCDT) for amnestic mild cognitive impairment(aMCI), and its diagnostic value for aMCI patients compared with the traditional clock-drawing test (tCDT).Methods:Total 81 middle-aged and elderly outpatients in Affiliated Hospital to Shanxi Medical University from November 2020 to May 2021 were selected, including 42 cognitively normal people (control group) and 39 aMCI patients (aMCI group). The dCDT developed by our team was used to collect drawing process parameters (such as stroke length, time and speed). The Cognitive Domain Indexs of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were calculated using the CDIS scoring method, and the correlation between dCDT parameters and MoCA indexs were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to construct the predictive model, and the sensitivity and specificity of different methods for the diagnosis of aMCI patients were compared by the area under the ROC curve.Results:(1) The total time(51.25(38.80, 63.75)s vs 42.42(33.64, 51.91)s) and time in air(36.34(26.81, 47.25)s vs 28.47(22.37, 33.98)s) of the aMCI group were significantly higher than those of the control group, and the minute hand/hour hand ratio(1.23±0.35 vs 1.39±0.34), strokes per minute((31.31±10.44) vs (41.05±9.48))and tCDT score(3.0(3.0, 4.0), 4.0(3.0, 4.0))were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Other dCDT parameters were not statistically significant between the two groups ( Z=-1.835--0.440, P>0.05). (2) Correlation analysis showed that the total time was negatively correlated with MoCA MIS( r=-0.224, P=0.049), LIS( r=-0.237, P=0.037)and AIS( r=-0.236, P=0.038); time in air was negatively correlated with MoCA MIS( r=-0.268, P=0.018), LIS( r=-0.271, P=0.016), AIS( r=-0.259, P=0.022)and OISA( r=-0.267, P=0.018); the minute hand/hour hand ratio was positively correlated with MoCA EIS( r=0.259, P=0.022)and VIS( r=0.309, P=0.006); the strokes per minute was positively correlated with MoCA MIS( r=0.376, P=0.001), EIS( r=0.290, P=0.010), VIS( r=0.294, P=0.009), AIS( r=0.238, P=0.036)and OISA( r=0.301, P=0.007). (3)dCDT model composed of the pre-second hand latency, the ratio of minute hand/hour hand, and the strokes per minute can correctly classify 77.8% of aMCI, with a sensitivity of 74.36% and a specificity of 80.95%.Its diagnostic power for aMCI was significantly higher than the tCDT scoring( Z=2.335, P=0.02). Conclusion:The cognitive impairment in aMCI can be detected by dCDT, and different dCDT parameters can reflect the impairment of different cognitive domains.Compared with tCDT scoring, dCDT can improve the diagnostic efficacy of aMCI patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of three-dimensional high resolution anorectal manometry and the effect of biological feedback therapy on the improvement of clinical symptoms in very elderly patients with chronic functional constipation.Methods:A total of 68 cases with chronic functional constipation were divided into very elderly group(≥80 years old, n=36)and the elderly group(60-79 years old, n=32)in the retrospective analysis.Patients underwent the three-dimensional high resolution anorectal manometry before and after biological feedback therapy, and the related parameters and scores of constipation symptoms before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:The results of 3D high-resolution anorectal manometry showed that the anus relaxation rate in the simulated defecation test was lower and the bowel threshold in the rectal sensory threshold test was higher in the very elderly group than in the elderly group(2.44±33.81% vs.16.34±16.99%, 103.44±42.01 ml vs.77.22±41.85 ml, t=-2.047 and 2.655, P=0.049 and 0.012). In the very elderly group, the post-biological feedback therapy versus pre-biological feedback therapy showed that anal residual pressure during simulated defecation was decreased, the absolute value of negative anorectal pressure difference was reduced and the anal relaxation rate was increased [57.50±18.88 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs.64.84±25.82 mmHg, -29.64±15.98 mmHg vs.-39.47±19.45 mmHg, 10.53±29.35% vs.2.44±33.81%, t=3.342, -4.902 and -3.209, P=0.002, 0.000 and 0.003]. The scores of clinical symptom scale showed that there was no significant difference in the effective rate between the very elderly and elderly groups(66.67% or 24/36 vs.71.88% or 23/32, χ2=0.760, P=0.860). Conclusions:The elderly functional constipation patients with defecation disorder often have rectal propulsive insufficiency and dyscoordination of pelvic floor muscle contraction.The main cause of defecation disorder in very elderly patients is the decrease of anal relaxation rate during simulated defecation.Biological feedback therapy can improve the symptoms of defecation disorder in very elderly patients by reducing the anal residual pressure during simulated defecation, increasing the anal relaxation rate and reducing the absolute value of negative anorectal pressure difference.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) on 5-serotonin-2c receptor in alleviating aggression in socially isolated mice.Methods:Sixty healthy male BALB / c mice aged 21 days were randomly divided into six groups: social isolation group, social control group, ADAR1 inducer social isolation group, ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group, ADAR1 inducer social control group and ADAR1 inhibitor control group.The mice fed in single cage for 4 weeks were used as social isolation model while the mice fed in group were used as control group.ADAR1 inducer (5.0×10 4 U/kg) and inhibitor (10 mg/kg) were given intraperitoneally to mice in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group and the ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group respectively.The aggressive behavior of mice was evaluated by resident-intruder test.The expression of ADAR1 and 5-serotonin-2c receptors in the brain of mice was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. Results:The attack latency of social isolation group was significantly lower than that of social control group ((43.15±6.99) s, (542.40±30.50) s; t=15.906, P<0.01), and the latency of attack ((256.70±29.49) s) in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group was significantly higher than that in the social isolation group ( t=7.046, P<0.01). The latency of attack ((15.25±2.18)s) in the ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group was significantly lower than that in the social isolation group ( t=3.809, P<0.01). The optical density of ADAR1 immunoreactive cells in the amygdala of the social isolation group mice was significantly lower than that in the corresponding brain area of the social control group (BLA: (0.038±0.002), (0.074±0.004); LaDL: (0.033±0.002), (0.060±0.002); LaVM: (0.045±0.003), (0.073±0.004); Lavl area: (0.044±0.003), (0.070±0.003); t=8.428, 9.037, 6.462, 5.698, all P<0.01). The optical density of ADAR1 immunoreactive positive cells in the amygdala (BLA: (0.060±0.003), LaDL: (0.042±0.002), LaVM: (0.056±0.004), Lavl: (0.054±0.003) in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group was significantly higher than those in the corresponding brain area of the social isolation group mice ( t=6.055, 2.876, 2.312, 2.492; all P<0.05). The expression of ADAR1 protein and 5-serotonin-2c receptor protein in amygdala of social isolation group were significantly lower than those of social isolation group ( t=11.37, 12.65; P<0.01). The expression of ADAR1 protein and 5-serotonin-2c receptor protein in the amygdala of the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group were significantly higher than those of the social isolation group ( t=3.02, 4.401; P<0.05). Conclusion:ADAR1 inducer alleviates the aggressive behavior of social isolated BALB / c mice by enhancing the protein expression of 5-serotonin-2c receptor in the amygdala of social isolated BALB/c mice.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the relationship and diagnostic value of serum hepatitis B virus(HBV) RNA on liver significant inflammation in chronic hepatitis B (CHB)patients with normal or mildly elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) levels.Methods:A total of 211 treatment-naive CHB patients with ALT<two times of the upper limit of normal in Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University between January 2016 and June 2019 were retrospectively studied.All of them received liver biopsy. Serum HBV RNA levels were quantified by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Statistical analyses were performed with t test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test and logistic regression analysis. Results:In 83 hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive patients, the serum HBV RNA levels decreased with the increasing severity of liver inflammation ((6.208±1.363) lg copies/mL vs (4.654±0.962) lg copies/mL, t=6.035, P<0.01). In 138 HBeAg-negative patients, the serum HBV RNA levels increased with the increasing severity of liver inflammation ((3.101±0.720) lg copies/mL vs (3.965±0.782) lg copies/mL, t=-5.892, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that serum HBV RNA level was an independent predictor for significant liver inflammation (odds ratio ( OR)=0.168, P=0.003) in HBeAg-positive patients. Area under receiver operator characteristic curve (AUROC) was 0.82 (95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.73-0.91) of HBV RNA and 0.56(95% CI 0.44-0.69) of ALT for the diagnosis of significant liver inflammation. The difference was statistically significant ( z=2.975, P=0.003). Serum HBV RNA ( OR=4.960, P<0.01), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase ( OR=1.021, P=0.019) and blood platelet (PLT) ( OR=0.987, P=0.008) were independent predictors for significant liver inflammation in HBeAg-negative patients. The AUROC of HBV RNA and ALT was 0.78(95% CI 0.69-0.87) and 0.65(95% CI 0.55-0.75), respectively. The AUROC of combination diagnostic model consisting of HBV RNA, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase and blood platelet was 0.86(95% CI 0.79-0.93) for the diagnosis of significant liver inflammation. Conclusions:The serum HBV RNA levels are significantly different among the different phases of liver inflammation in treatment-naive CHB patients with normal or mildly elevated ALT levels. Inflammation-related serum HBV RNA and combination diagnostic model are expected to be the novel non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers for significant liver inflammation and of great benefit for determining the time for clinical medication of treatment-naive CHB patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of miR-15 b-5 p on choroid melanoma cell line proliferation by targeting CDK4.Methods Dual-luciferase assay was used to verify the direct binding site between miR-15 b-5 p and CDK4 3'-UTR. MUM-2 B cells were cultured in vitro and transfected with negative control RNA, miR-15 b-5 p mimics, inhibitor normal control (nc) RNA, and miR-15 b-5 p inhibitor. qRT-PCR was used to detect miR-15 b-5 p expression, Western blotting was used to measure the expression levels of CDK4 in the cells, CCK-8 assay was used to detect proliferation capacity, and flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle. Results Dual-luciferase assay verified that miR-15 b-5 p could bind to CDK4 mRNA 3'-UTR successfully. Compared to the negative control group, the mimics group showed significantly increased miR-15 b-5 p expression, decreased CDK4 levels, decreased cell proliferation rate, and increased proportion of G1-phase cells. Compared to the inhibitor nc group, the inhibitor group showed significantly decreased miR-15 b-5 p expression (t = 25.01, P < 0.000 1), increased CDK4 protein level, increased cell proliferation rate, and decreased proportion of G1-phase cells.Conclusion miR-15 b-5 p can target CDK4, induce G1 phase arrest in cells, and thus, reduce the proliferation rate of choroid melanoma cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical values of SOFA score,qSOFA score and SIRS criteria in predicting the prognosis of patients with suspected infection in the emergency department.Methods From January 2015 to April 2017,487 patients aged over 18 years were suspected to be infected and admitted to hospital.SOFA,qSOFA,and SIRS scores were calculated.The mortality and the requirement of ICU treatment were used as prognostic factors for evaluating the validity of each score.The prognostic value of each scoring system was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC).Results In 487 patients,the hospital mortality rate was 4.9%,and requirement of ICU treatment rate was 17%.SOFA score predicting hospital mortality and requirement of ICU treatment (AUROC 0.905) were superior to other scores (qSOFA-WBC:AUROC 0.778,qSOFA:AUROC 0.769,SIRS:AUROC 0.64).Compared with the SIRS criteria,patients with a score of >1 had higher qSOFA scores (94.47%),but lower sensitivity (44.86%);although SIRS criteria had a higher sensitivity (77.57%),they were less specific (42.63%).When qSOFA was added to the condition of leukocyte abnormalities (<4× 109/L or > 10× 109/L),the prognosis was improved and the sensitivity and specificity for prognosis were 73.83% and 71.84% (qSOFA-WBC score,>1),respectively.In patients with qSOFA-WBC score,only 6 patients (negative predictive value of 94.2%) died or required ICU treatment.Conclusion The SOFA score is superior to qSOFA and SIRS in predicting the prognosis of patients with suspect infection,and qSOFA-WBC is superior to qSOFA and SIRS in predicting low risk.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effects of ADAR1 inducer and inhibitor on cognition and ADAR1 expression of isolated BALB/c mice.Methods Sixty healthy BALB/c mice were divided into 6 groups according to randomized design with 10 animals each group,the gregarious control group (GH),social isolation model group (SI),ADAR1 inducer treated gregarious group (GH+IFN-γ),ADAR1 inhibitor treated gregarious group (GH+EHNA),ADAR1 inducer treated isolation group (SI+IFN-γ) and ADAR1 inhibitor treated isolation group (SI+EHNA).Mice in drug treatment groups were treated with ADAR1 inducer (5.0? 104 U/kg,20 ml/kg,ip) and inhibitor (10 mg/kg,20 ml/kg,ip).Objection recognition test was used to measure cognition.Immunohistochenmistry was used to measure ADARI immunoreactivity and Western blotwas used to measure ADAR1 protein expression.Results In the objection recognition test,the non-spatial discrimination index of mice in SI group (-0.16±0.09) was significantly lower than that of GH group (0.41 ±0.17,P<0.01),the non-spatial discrimination index of mice in SI+IFN-γ group (0.20±0.09) and in SI+ EHNA group (-0.29±0.12) was higher (P<0.01) and lower (P<0.05) than that of the SI group respectively.The immunohistochemistry results showed that the ADAR1 immunoreactivity in hippocampus of mice in SI group (Hilus:(0.013±0.003),CAI:(0.021±0.005)) decreased significantly compared to those of GH group(Hilus:(0.021 ±0.002),(0.047±0.004);both P<0.05).And GH+IFN-γgroup mice showed increased ADAR1 immunoreactivity obviously in Hilus ((0.013±0.003) vs (0.023±0.004),P<0.01) and in CA1 ((0.021±0.005) vs (0.040±0.005),P<0.01) compared with that of SI group,ADAR1 inducer recovered the above abnornal ADAR1 immunoreactivity.Western blot results showed that the ADAR1 protein expression of mice in SI group (0.48 ±0.07) in hippocampus was significantly decreased (P<0.01) compared to that of GH group (1.00 ±0.00).The level of ADAR1 protein in SI+IFN-γgroup(0.82 ±0.04) increased compared with that of SI group.Conclusions Four weeks of social isolation can reduce the non-spatial cognitive ability of BALB/c mice and decrease the expression of ADAR1 in the hippocampus.The ADAR1 inducers and inhibitors can reverse and aggravate the cognitive impairment caused by social isolation respectively.The related mechanisms may be related to the expression of ADAR1.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the diagnostic value of hepatobiliary imaging at 6 h post-injection of 99 Tcm-diethyl iminodiacetic acid ( EHIDA) ( HI-6) combined with serum gamma-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT)/total bile acid ( TBA) ratio ( combined diagnosis) in children with congenital extrahepatic biliary atre-sia (CEBA). Methods Clinical data of 194 pediatric patients (118 males, 76 females, mean 70.9 d) with jaundice from May 2013 to March 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent surgery. According to the operation and pathologic diagnosis, patients were divided into CEBA group ( 113 cases) , infant hepatitis syndrome ( IHS) group ( 81 cases) . Serumγ-GT, TBA and the ratio ofγ-GT/TBA of the 2 groups were compared. Receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curves were drawn to determine threshold values of the 3 parameters for diagnosis of CEBA. Patients also underwent 99 Tcm-EHIDA hepatobiliary dy-namic imaging. The diagnostic efficacies of HI-6, γ-GT, γ-GT/TBA ratio, and combined diagnosis were compared. Two-sample t test and χ2 test were used to analyze the data. Results There were significant differences in γ-GT/TBA ratio,γ-GT and TBA content between the 2 groups (t values:8.217, 9.298 and 2.426, all P<0.05). The serumγ-GT andγ-GT/TBA ratio had high diagnostic accuracies (area under ROC curve ( AUC):0.884 and 0.863) . The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and positive predictive value of HI-6 in the diagnosis of CEBA were 91.15%(103/113), 39.51%(32/81), 69.59%(135/194) and 67.76%(103/152);the parameters of γ-GT were 69.91%(79/113), 93.83%(76/81), 79.90%(155/194) and 94.05%(79/84);and those ofγ-GT/TBA ratio were 71.68%(81/113), 92.59%(75/81), 80.41%(156/194) and 93.10%(81/87). The sensitivity of HI-6 was significantly higher than that of γ-GT and GGT/TBA ratio (χ2 values:16.256 and 14.154, both P<0.05) , but the specificity, accuracy and positive predic-tive value were significantly lower than those ofγ-GT/TBA ratio (χ2 values:50.899, 6.062 and 20.054, all P<0.05). The specificity, accuracy and positive predictive value of the combined diagnosis were 95.06%(77/81), 92.78%(180/194) and 96.26%(103/107) respectively, which were significantly higher than those of HI-6 (χ2 values:56.786, 34.168 and 31.335, all P<0.05) . Conclusions HI-6 combined withγ-GT/TBA ratio can significantly improve the diagnostic specificity and accuracy for CEBA. This method is more time-saving, simple and reliable, and has important clinical value.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between lipid fluctuations of daily diet and insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) with normal fasting lipid profile. Methods One hundred and ninety?eight cases patients with T2DM who were treated in the Endocrinology Department of the General Hospital of Benxi Iron and Steel Group Corporation from October 2012 to September 2014 were selected. Patients were divided into three groups according to fasting and postprandial 4 h triglyceride( TG4 h) level,the group with normal fasting TG and normal TG4 h with 38 cases,the group with normal fasting TG and rising TG4 h with 78 cases,the group with rising fasting TG and rising TG4 h with 82 cases. The control group was composed of healthy volunteers with 20 cases. The patients followed daily diet habits to eat,blood glucose, insulin and lipid level of fasting and 2 h,4 h after lunch were monitored. Homeostasis model insulin resistance index( HOMA?IR) was used as an index to evaluate insulin resistance,and the correlation analysis was carried out with fasting and dietary intake of postprandial lipid metabolism. Results (1)HbA1c,FPG,HOMA?IR,TG and insulin level in the patients of the group with normal fasting TG and normal TG4 h,the group with normal fasting TG and rising TG4 h,the group with rising fasting TG and rising TG4 h were higher than the control group (HbA1c:(8. 4±1. 9)%,(8. 2±2. 4)%,(7. 8±1. 8)% vs. (4. 3±0. 6)%);FPG:(8. 98±1. 93) mmol/L, (8. 62±1. 33) mmol/L,(8. 28±1. 26) mmol/L vs. (4. 82±0. 63) mmol/L;,HOMA?IR:11. 07±0. 11,6. 98 ±0. 08,3. 83±0. 09 vs. 1. 24±0. 16;TG:0 h TG:(2. 35±1. 85) mmol/L,(1. 60±0. 41) mmol/L,(1. 58±0. 46) mmol/L vs. (0. 82±0. 25) mmol/L;2 h TG:(3. 97±2. 96) mmol/L,(2. 98±1. 49) mmol/L,(1. 83±0. 62) mmol/L vs. (1. 22±0. 31) mmol/L;4 h TG:(4. 24±1. 57) mmol/L,(3. 15±1. 63) mmol/L,(1. 92±0. 53) mmol/L vs. (1. 16±0. 24) mmol/L;insulin(0 h insulin:(26. 51±3. 65) mU/L,(18. 18±6. 24) mU/L,(10. 31 ±2. 38) mU/L vs. (5. 87±1. 62) mU/L;2 h insulin:(59. 15±8. 34) mU/L,(43. 75±9. 83) mU/L,(34. 27 ±1. 61) mU/L vs. (25. 24±1. 98) mU/L;4 h insulin:(51. 22±6. 79) mU/L,(40. 06±7. 51) mU/L,(31. 06 ±1.77) mU/L vs. (13.36±1.37) mU/L;P<0.05). (2)WHR(0.90±0.08 vs.0.72±0.06),HOMA?IR, insulin level of fasting and 2 h,4 h after lunch,TG of 2 h,4 h after lunch in the group with normal fasting TG and rising TG4 h were higher than the group with normal fasting TG and normal TG4 h ( P<0. 05 ) . ( 3 ) BMI ((27. 3±3. 3) kg/m2 vs. (23. 1±1. 5) kg/m2),WHR(0. 96±0. 10 vs. 0. 72±0. 06),HOMA?IR,TG and insulin level of fasting and 2 h,4 h after lunch in the group with rising fasting TG and rising TG4 h were higher than the group with normal fasting TG and normal TG4 h( P<0. 05) . HOMA?IR,TG and insulin level of fasting and 2 h, 4 h after lunch in the group with rising fasting TG and rising TG4 h were higher than the group with normal fasting TG and rising TG4 h( P<0. 05) . ( 4) HOMA?IR was positively correlated with BMI,WHR,and fasting TG levels in the groups with diabetes(r=0. 297,0. 376,0. 326,P<0. 05). HOMA?IR was significantly positively correlated with TG of 2 h,4 h after lunch in the groups with diabetes( r=0. 529,0. 693,P<0. 05) . HOMA?IR was significantly positively correlated with BMI and WHR in the control group(r=0. 617,0. 728,P <0. 05). HOMA?IR was not significantly correlated with fasting and postprandial TG in the control group. Conclusion Postprandial lipid metabolism disorder after daily diet is in some of patients with T2DM with normal fasting lipid profile. Postprandial lipid metabolism disorder after daily diet is significantly positively correlated with insulin resistance in patients with T2DM. Insulin resistance may be one of the pathogenesis of postprandial dyslipidemia in patients with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of protein acetylation in host cells on the replication of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in hepatocytes, since HBV infection greatly threatens human health and the acetylation of encoding proteins in infected cells plays an important role in HBV replication and infection. MethodsThe deacetylase inhibitors trichostatin A (TSA) and nicotinamide (NAM) were used to stimulate HBV replication in HepG2.2.15 and HepAD38 cells, and the HBV replication markers were measured. The pan-acetylysin protein and Ac-H3 were examined by Western Blot. ResultsThe stimulation of cells with TSA and NAM increased the overall acetylation level of proteins in cells, and the acetylation level increased in a time- and dose-dependent manner. In the HepG2.2.15 and HepAD38 cells, stimulation with TSA and NAM reduced HBsAg level in the supernatant of cell culture and increased HBV DNA level in a time- and dose-dependent manner, while HBeAg in the supernatant of cell culture and DNA in cells did not change significantly. ConclusionAcetylation of host proteins may be involved in and affect HBV replication in cells, and further analysis and determination of host proteins whose acetylation affects HBV replication in cells help to learn more about the regulation of HBV replication and provide new thoughts for the development of specific antiviral strategies.
