ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the intervention effect of acupuncture at"Zusanli"(ST36)or"Neiguan"(PC6)on the ulcerative colitis(UC)model mice.And to analyze the similarities and differences of gene transcription expression between the diseased colon and the non-diseased heart after acupuncture intervention by using transcriptomics,to explore whether there are efficacy differences between the two acupoints.Methods The UC mouse model was established by inducing dextran sulfate sodium salt(DSS).After successful modeling,the mice were randomly divided into model group,Zusanli group,and Neiguan group,with 9 mice in each group.Zusanli group and Neiguan group intervened with acupuncture at"Zusanli"and"Neiguan",respectively,30 min each time,once a day,for 5 consecutive days.The control and model groups were only bound without acupuncture.Observe the general situation of mice in each group,calculate the disease activity index(DAI),observe the morphological changes of colon tissue by HE staining.Use transcriptome sequencing technology to sequence and biologically analyze the colon tissue of mice in each group,and compare and study whether the two acupoints have differences in acupoint efficacy from the perspective of diseased tissue.At the same time,take the heart tissues of each group for comparative analysis,and discuss whether the effects of the two acupoints are different from the perspective of non-diseased tissue.Results Compared with control group,the DAI score of the model group increased significantly(P<0.001),and HE staining results showed significant pathological damage;after acupuncture at Zusanli or Neiguan,the DAI scores of UC mice were reduced considerably(P<0.05),and the pathological damage was significantly improved.The results of transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis showed that the effects of acupuncture at Zusanli or Neiguan on the colon of diseased tissue involved multiple genes,and 825 differential genes with similar changes(co-DEGs)were mainly enriched in white blood cells and chemokine pathways;there were 168 differentially expressed genes(ST36 only-DEGs)affected only by Zusanli,which were enriched to gastric acid secretion and other pathways;there were 325 differentially expressed genes(PC6 only-DEGs)only affected by Neiguan,which were enriched in cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and other pathways.There were 95 co-DEGs in the heart of non-diseased tissue,which were mainly enriched in positive regulation of defense response and response to interleukin-1;there were 28 ST36 only-DEGs;there were114 PC6 only-DEGs,which were enriched in cardiovascular diseases and other pathways.Conclusion Acupuncture of"Zusanli"and"Neiguan"could improve UC mice's symptoms and pathological colon changes.However,through transcriptomic analysis,it was found that the two acupoints had differences in gene transcription effects on the colon of diseased tissue and the heart of non-diseased tissue,suggesting that acupoints with different distribution positions had some similarities in macro efficacy.Still,there were some differences at a micro level.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with negative cerebral CT perfusion (CTP) and influencing factors for their prognoses.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; 448 patients with AIS admitted to Department of Neurology, Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2020 to June 2021 were enrolled. CTP images of these patients were processed by RAPID software, and they were divided into CTP-negative group and CTP-positive group according to cerebral infarction core and ischemic penumbra volumes. The clinical data were compared between patients from CTP-negative group and CTP-positive group and between patients from CTP-negative and CTP-positive subgroups accepted thrombolytic therapy. According to the prognoses 3 months after discharge, CTP negative patients were divided into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group. Independent influencing factors for poor prognosis in negative CTP patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regressions.Results:(1) In these 448 patients, 154 (34.4%) were with negative CTP and 294 (65.6%) were with positive CTP; compared with the CTP-positive group, the CTP-negative group had significantly younger age, significantly higher percentage of patients with diabetes, significantly lower percentage of patients with atrial fibrillation, statistically higher baseline systolic blood pressure, and significantly lower baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, early neurological deterioration (END) incidence, modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores 3 months after discharge, and proportion of patients with poor prognosis ( P<0.05); significant differences in distributions of responsible circulations for the lesions and etiological classification (TOAST) were noted between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). Of the 448 patients, 270 received thrombolytic therapy, including 101 CTP-negative patients and 169 CTP-positive patients; compared with the CTP-positive subgroup, the CTP-negative subgroup had significantly younger age, significantly lower percentage of patients with atrial fibrillation, statistically higher baseline systolic blood pressure, and significantly lower baseline NIHSS scores, END incidence, mRS scores 3 months after discharge, and proportion of patients with poor prognosis ( P<0.05). (2) Of the 154 CTP negative patients, 31 had poor prognosis and 123 had good prognosis. Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that baseline blood glucose, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), baseline NIHSS scores and fibrinogen were the influencing factors for prognoses of CTP negative patients, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis found that NIHSS ( OR=0.827, 95% CI: 0.743-0.920, P<0.001) and HbA1 C ( OR=0.763, 95% CI: 0.609-0.956, P=0.019) were independent influencing factors for poor prognosis of CTP-negative patients. Conclusion:AIS patients with negative CTP have milder neurological impairment, better prognosis, and higher safety of receiving intravenous thrombolysis than those with positive CTP; AIS patients with negative CTP enjoying high baseline NIHSS scores and HBA1c have poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Using beta-2 adrenergic receptor, 5-hydroxytryptamine and angiotensin II type 1 receptor as control, we here established a method for rapid prediction of the initial position amino acids of N-terminal, C-terminal, intracellular loops, extracellular loops and transmembrane (TM) regions in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and successfully predicted the structure of Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors X3 (MRGPRX3). To achieve this purpose, nanoluciferase (Nluc) was inserted into the different sites of these GPCRs′ sequence by sequence and ligation-independent cloning (SLIC) method, and the luminescence value were measured to distinguish the different parts of GPCRs. The results showed that luminescence values of NLuc luciferase at TM region were less than 100 000, and the values were higher than 1 000 000 at N terminal, C terminal, or extracellular loops and intracellular loops, and the values were between 100 000 and 500 000 at junction. The predicted MRGPRX3 structure was analyzed in detail and was compared with AlphaFold predicted structure. In conclusion, this method could provide useful information of GPCR structure model for the ligand virtual screening, and could provide certain experimental basis for structural pharmacology.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the association between muscle mass and quality of life in adults in Shaanxi adults. Methods: The data in this analysis were part of the baseline survey of the Regional Ethnic Cohort Study in Northwest China from June 2018 to May 2019 in Shaanxi Province. The participants' quality of life, including physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS), was assessed by the 12-Item Short Form Survey, and the Body Fat Determination System measured muscle mass. A logistic regression model with adjustment for confounding factors was established to analyze the association between muscle mass and quality of life in different genders. Further, sensitivity and subgroup analyses were conducted to explore its stability. Finally, a restricted cubic spline was employed to investigate the dose-response relationship between muscle mass and quality of life in different genders. Results: A total of 20 595 participants were included, with an average age of 55.0, and 33.4% were male. After controlling for potential confounders, compared with the Q1 group, the risk of low PCS was reduced by 20.6% (OR=0.794, 95%CI: 0.681-0.925) and the risk of low MCS was lower reduced by 20.1% (OR=0.799, 95%CI: 0.689-0.926) in female Q5 groups. Compared with the Q1 group, the risk of low PCS was reduced by 24.4% (OR=0.756, 95%CI: 0.644-0.888) in the male Q2 group. However, no significant association between muscle mass and MCS in males has been found. In females, restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant linear dose-response relationship between muscle mass and PCS and MCS. Conclusions: There is a positive association between muscle mass and quality of life in Shaanxi adults, especially females. With the increase in muscle mass, the physical and mental functions of the population continue to improve.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the prognostic factors of extracellular NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL) treated with pegaspargase/L-asparaginase. Methods: The clinical data of 656 ENKTL patients diagnosed at 11 medical centers in the Huaihai Lymphoma Working Group from March 2014 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: a training set (460 cases) and a validation set (196 cases) at 7∶3, and the prognostic factors of the patients were analyzed. A prognostic scoring system was established, and the predictive performance of different models was compared. Results: Patients' median age was 46 (34, 57) years, with 456 males (69.5% ) and 561 nasal involvement (85.5% ). 203 patients (30.9% ) received a chemotherapy regimen based on L-asparaginase combined with anthracyclines, and the 5-year overall survival rate of patients treated with P-GEMOX regimen (pegaspargase+gemcitabine+oxaliplatin) was better than those treated with SMILE regimen (methotrexate+dexamethasone+cyclophosphamide+L-asparaginase+etoposide) (85.9% vs 63.8% ; P=0.004). The results of multivariate analysis showed that gender, CA stage, the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) score, HGB, and EB virus DNA were independent influencing factors for the prognosis of ENKTL patients (P<0.05). In this study, the predictive performance of the prognostic factors is superior to the international prognostic index, Korean prognostic index, and prognostic index of natural killer lymphoma. Conclusion: Gender, CA stage, ECOG PS score, HGB, and EB virus DNA are prognostic factors for ENKTL patients treated with pegaspargase/L-asparaginase.

ABSTRACT

This study aims to develop the pre-column derivatization high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) method for the determination of 16 kinds of amino acids in Eucommia ulmoides leaves, and compare the content of amino acids in the leaves harvested at different time and under leaf-oriented cultivation mode(LCM) and arbor forest mode(AFM). The HPLC conditions are as below: phenyl isothiocyanate(PITC) as pre-column derivatization agent, Agilent ZORBAX C_(18 )column(4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm), mobile phase A of acetonitrile-water(80∶20), mobile phase B of 0.1 mol·L~(-1) sodium acetate solution-acetonitrile(94∶6), gradient elution, flow rate of 1.0 mL·min~(-1), injection volume of 5 μL, column temperature of 40 ℃, and detection wavelength of 254 nm. The HPLC profile indicated well separation of 16 kinds of amino acids and the amino acid content in E. ulmoides leaves was up to 16.26%. In addition, the amino acid content in leaves of E. ulmoides under LCM was higher than under AFM. The amino acid content varied with the harvesting time. Through orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis, the amino acids of E. ulmoides under LCM and AFM were compared, which can distinguish the leaves under LCM from those under AFM. Principal component analysis was applied to comprehensively score the amino acids of E. ulmoides leaves. The results showed that the score of leaves under LCM was higher than that under AFM. Nutritional evaluation results indicated that the proteins in E. ulmoides leaves belonged to high-quality vegetable proteins. The established method for the determination of amino acid content is reliable. With the amino acid content as index, the leaf quality of E. ulmoides under LCM is better than that under AFM. This study lays a theoretical basis for the promotion of LCM for E. ulmoides and the development of medicinal and edible products from E. ulmoides leaves.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the normal ranges of perfusion parameters between cerebral hemisphere, cerebellar hemisphere and brain anatomical subregions (56 pairs) in different gender and age groups with multiple post labeling delay time (Multi-PLD) arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging.Methods:From November 2020 to December 2020, 42 healthy adult volunteers (Male 25, Female 17) were recruited to perform 7 PLD ASL imaging, including 21 young adults (15 males and 6 females, aged 23—35 years) and 21 seniors (10 males and 11 females, aged 36—74 years). The data was processed offline by Cereflow software to obtain arterial arrival time (ATT) and corrected cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV) perfusion parameters. SimpleITK standardization function was used to standardize the calculated perfusion image according to the anatomical automatic labeling (AAL) template. Therefore, CBF, ATT, CBV perfusion values of brain subregions were obtained. Paired samples t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, independent samples t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the differences of perfusion parameters in the cerebral hemisphere, the cerebellar hemisphere, brain subregions depending on side, gender and age. Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the correlations of perfusion parameters with age. Results:CBF in 62.5% (35/56) subregions and CBV in 44.6% (25/56) subregions were higher in right side than those in left side. ATT in most brain anatomical subregions (16/56) were higher in left side. The CBF [(35.30±8.31) vs. (34.34±7.53) ml·100g -1·min -1, P=0.021], CBV [(0.47±0.11) vs. (0.45±0.09) ml/100g, P<0.001], ATT [(1.30±0.10) vs. (1.24±0.11) s, P<0.001] in left cerebellar hemisphere were higher than that of right side. The CBF (28/56) of cerebral hemisphere, cerebellar hemisphere and brain subregions was higher in females than that in males, while ATT in 83.9% (47/56) subregions was lower than that in males (all P<0.05). CBV in female subjects was higher only in 5 brain regions (superior occipital gyrus, middle occipital gyrus, inferior occipital gyrus, superior parietal gyrus and cerebelum_7b) (all P<0.05). In young subjects, CBF in 44.6% (25/56) subregions and CBV in 33.9% (19/56) subregions were higher than those in the senior group (all P<0.05). The ATT in most subregions in young group were lower than those in senior group, but the difference was statistically significant only in rectus gyrus ( P=0.026) and paracentral lobule ( P=0.006). The CBF ( r=-0.430, P=0.005) and CBV ( r=-0.327, P=0.035) of cerebral hemisphere were negatively correlated with age. The CBF (24/25, r range:-0.497 —-0.343, all P<0.05) and CBV (16/19, r range:-0.474 —-0.322, all P<0.05) in most subregions were negatively correlated with age, while ATT was positively correlated (gyrus rectus: r=0.311, P=0.045; paracentral lobule: r=0.392, P=0.010). Conclusions:Multi-PLD ASL imaging could be applied for quantitative analysis of brain perfusion. The perfusion parameters of anatomical subregions are different depending on side, gender, and age.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze and identify the flavonoids of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium with different aging time by an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS). Method:Compounds were separated on Agilent Extend-C<sub>18</sub> column (3.0 mm×100 mm, 1.8 μm), mobile phase was 0.1% acetic acid aqueous solution (A)-0.1% acetic acid methanol solution (B) for gradient elution (0-25 min, 5%-95%B; 25-30 min, 95%B; 30-30.1 min, 95%-5%B; 30.1-35 min, 5%B), the flow rate was 0.4 mL·min<sup>-1</sup>, and the column temperature was set at 30 ℃. High resolution mass spectrometry was performed with electrospray ionization (ESI), and scanned in positive and negative ion modes by means of full scan/data dependent secondary scan (Full MS/dd-MS<sup>2</sup>). The multistage ion fragment information combined with mzCloud network database, local high resolution mass spectrometry database of traditional Chinese medicine components (OTCML), literature information and relevant reference materials were used for accurate qualitative analysis. Result:Totally 43 flavonoids in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium were identified, including 24 flavones, 5 flavonols, 13 dihydroflavones and 1 chalcone. The flavonoids in samples with different aging time were basically consistent in material types, but the peak area was different. According to the comparison of relative content in the peak area, it was found that the relative contents of 30 flavonoids showed an overall increasing trend with the increase of aging time. Among them, the relative contents of 24 flavonoids (such as hesperidin, diosmin, 6-demethoxytangeretin, nobiletin and tangeretin) increased significantly. There was no significant change in the relative contents of the other 13 flavonoids (such as naringenin and neohesperidin). Conclusion:An efficient method is established in this paper to identify flavonoids in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium with different aging time and their relative content changes rapidly and accurately. The findings provide a methodological reference for the study on pharmacodynamic material base and quality control of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, and it provides experimental basis that drugs processed long time ago have better effect of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND@#Although percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had become widely employed therapeutic procedure for coronary artery disease, stent restenosis limited the benefits of this revascularization and the question how to prevent such events remained unresolved. While numerous empirical observations suggested Tongguan Capsules (), a patented Chinese Medicine, could decrease frequency and duration of angina pectoris attacks, evidence supporting its efficacy on restenosis remained inadequate.@*OBJECTIVE@#This trial was designed to determine whether Tongguan Capsules would reduce restenosis rate in patients after successful stent implantation.@*METHODS@#Approximately 400 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary stent deployment were enrolled and randomized to control group or Tongguan Capsules (4.5 g/d) for 3 months. All patients received standard anti-platelet, anti-coagulation and lipid-decreasing treatments, concurrently. The primary clinical endpoint was the 12-month incidence of the major adverse cardiovascular events (defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and recurrence of symptoms requiring additional revascularization). The angiographic end point was restenosis rate at 6 months.@*CONCLUSION@#This study would provide important evidence for the use of Tongguan Capsules in patients after stent implantation in combination with routine therapies, which may significantly reduce incidence of the restenosis so as to potentially improve the clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of ambient temperature on the activity influenza like illness (ILI) and laboratory-confirmed influenza (LAB) in Wuxi City. Methods Daily data of meteorological, ILI and detected influenza virus from 31 December 2012 to 31 December 2017 were collected. Distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) was used to evaluate the exposure-lag-response of ILI and LAB activity to daily ambient temperature.Results During the period, the overall ILI% was 4.96% and influenza detection positive rate was 12.28% in Wuxi city. The overall cumulative association analysis suggested non-linear relationship between ambient temperature and influenza: U-shaped for ILI, while L-shaped relationship for LAB. Low temperature (<10℃ ) had strong and longer delay effect than hightemperature (>20℃ ) for ILI. The cold effect for LAB was stronger and longer delay,and the low temperature (<10℃ ) was risk factor for LAB. Conclusions The ambient temperature significant correlates with ILI and LAB, and low temperature might be risk factor with lag effect.

The study is aimed to investigate the effects of light intensities on growth,photosynthetic physiology,antioxidant systems and chemical composition of Viola yedoensis and provide cultivation references for V.yedoensis.Five groups of V.yedoensis were planted under five light intensities conditions,namely 100%,80%,50%,35%,5%of full sunlight,and then morphological index,growth,chlorophyll fluorescence parameters,photosynthetic parameters and antioxidant enzyme system indexes were measured during harvest.The results showed that there was no significant difference in the biomass of V.yedoensis among 35% -100%full sunlight,but the biomass of those were significantly higher than that in the 5%full sunlight treatment(P<0.05).The net photosynthetic rate,transpiration rate,stomatal conductance,intercellular CO_2 concentration and water use efficiency increased firstly and then decreased with the decrease of light intensity;F_m,F_v/F_mand Yield in 5% full sunlight treatment were significantly lower than those in the other four groups(P<0.05).The structure of chloroplast was normal under light intensity ranged from 50%to 100% full sunlight.The lamellar concentration of chloroplast matrix decreased and the starch granules decreased in 35% full sunlight treatment,and the margin of lamellar layer of chloroplast and substrate were blurred,and the starch granules were small and the number of starch granules decreased significantly under 5% full sunlight.MDA content in 5%full sunlight treatment was significantly higher than those in the other four groups(P<0.05).The total coumarin content and total flavonoid content decreased with the decrease of light intensity.In summary,the light in-tensity range suitable for the growth of V.yedoensis is wide(ranging from 35% to 100% full sunlight).The content of flavonoids and coumarins is positively correlated with light intensity.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of tumor associated macrophages (TAM) in multiple myeloma (MM) and the relationship with angiogenesis and immunosuppression. Methods: Seventy cases of MM patients diagnosed from August 2015 to June 2017 were enrolled in the study as experimental group, 20 cases of benign hematological diseases (13 with iron deficiency anemia and 7 with megaloblastic anemia) patients as control group. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of CD163, CD34 and VEGF in bone marrow samples, and flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of regulatory T cell (Treg cells), ELISA was used to detect the level of IL-10, and the clinical features were analyzed. Results: ①Among the 70 patients, there were 31 males and 39 females with a median age of 65 (50~78) years old. TAM infiltration density, microvascular density (MVD), VEGF expression level, Treg ratio and IL-10 level in bone marrow samples of 70 MM patients were significantly higher than those of benign hematological diseases (P<0.05). ②In the MM group, the above indexes of the patients with disease stabilized (15 cases) were lower than those of the newly diagnosed group (35 cases) and the relapse refractory group (20 cases) (P<0.05), those of relapse refractory group were higher than those of newly diagnosed group (P>0.05). ③Of the 35 newly diagnosed MM patients, 27 completed 4 courses of treatment. In the effective group (15 cases), the TAM infiltration density after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment, the difference was statistically significant[(20.20±7.66) vs (28.87±11.97), t=2.362, P=0.025]; while in the ineffective group of 12 cases, the difference of the TAM infiltration density before and after treatment was not statistically significant[(42.00±13.76) vs (48.25±13.59), t=1.119, P=0.275]. ④TAM infiltration density in the effective group after bortezomib treatment (21 cases) were lower than those in the non-bortezomib treatment group (18 cases)[(16.52 ±4.26) vs (19.27 ±5.82), t=1.662, P=0.170]. ⑤The TAM infiltration density in MM patients was positively correlated with MVD, VEGF expression level, Treg cell ratio and IL-10 level (P<0.001). Conclusion: The infiltration of TAM in the microenvironment of MM, which may promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting immune response, is related to the occurrence, development, therapeutic effect and drug resistance of MM.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the rate of intraplaque hemorrhage between symptomatic and asymptom-atic vertebral artery stenosis groups using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging(HR-MRI).Methods The patients diagnosed with PCI and with vertebral artery stenosis using HR-MRI were enrolled retrospectively. They were divided into symptomatic and asymptomatic groups according to whether they were detected with PCI by the re-sponsible vertebral artery stenosis before examination. All patients underwent 3D time of flight magnetic resonance angiography(3D TOF MRA)to detect the stenosis location of vertebral artery and the stenosis rate at the narrow-est. T1-weighted fat-suppressed images were positioned on the atherosclerotic plaque that the signal 150% higher than the surrounding muscle was confirmed to be intraplaque hemorrhage. Statistical significance was assessed by chi-square test or Student′s unpaired t test.Results A total of 60 patients were included in this study,28 patients in the symptomatic group and 32 patients in the asymptomatic group.The rate of vertebral artery stenosis in asymp-tomatic group was higher than symptomatic group,but there was no statistical significance[(72 ± 33)% vs.(65 ± 28)%,P=0.383];the number of intraplaque hemorrhage in symptomatic group was significantly higher than that in the asymptomatic group(9 vs.2,P=0.024).Conclusions There is a higher rate of intraplaque hemorrhage in symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis group than asymptomatic group.Intraplaque Hemorrhage could be one of risk factor of acute ischemic cerebral disease.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the role of RUNX3 in the regulation of macrophage polarization so as to provide a new therapeutic approach for immunity-related diseases.Methods ① After RAW264.7 cells were stimulated by IFN-γ,LPS and IL-4,respectively,the expressions of their surface markers(arginase-1 and iNOS) were detected by RT-PCR to observe whether RAW264.7 cells polarized to M1 or M2 after stimulation by IFN-γ, LPS and IL-4.The cells stimulated by IFN-γ and LPS were named group M1 and those stimulated by IL-4 were group M2;the control group was group M0.② The expression of RUNX3 was detected by immunofluorescence and RT-PCR methods in each cell group(M1,M2 and M0).③ RUNX3 over-expression vector was established.The RUNX3 gene in RAW264.7 cells was silenced.Cell lines with stable expression were screened with G 418 culture medium.The expressions of cell surface markers iNOS and CD86 were detected by RT-PCR;cell secretion(TNF-α) was detected using ELESA method.Results ① Stimulation of RAW264.7 cells with IFN-γ and LPS could induce RAW264.7 cells to polarize into M1 type macrophages.The mRNA expression of iNOS in M1 group was higher than that in group M0 detected by RT-PCR(P= 0.002),while using IL-4 to stimulate RAW264.7 cells could induce RAW264.7 cells to polarize into M2 macrophages.The results of RT-PCR detection showed that the expression of arginase-1 was higher in M2 group than in group M0(P=0.021).② The expression of RUNX3 mRNA in the M1 cells group was higher than that in the M0 cells group(P= 0.001),but the expression in the M2 cells group was decreased(P=0.041).③ After silencing of RUNX3,the expressions of RAW264.7 cell surface markers CD86 and iNOS(P=0.005)and the cells secretion of TNF-α(P<0.001)were decreased compared with those in the control group.Conclusion RUNX3 transcriptional activation may promote the differentiation of macrophages into M1 type.
