Moderating effect of salidroside on intestinal microbiota in mice exposed to PM2.5 / 环境与职业医学

Background Salidroside (SAL) has a protective effect on multiple organ systems. Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the atmosphere may lead to disruptions in gut microbiota and impact intestinal health. The regulatory effect of SAL on the gut microbiota of mice exposed to PM2.5 requires further investigation. Objective To evaluate gut microbiota disruption in mice after being exposed to PM2.5 and the potential effect of SAL. Methods Forty male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6 to 8 weeks, were randomly divided into four groups: a control group, an SAL group, a PM2.5 group, and an SAL+PM2.5 group, each containing 10 mice. In the SAL group and the SAL+PM2.5 group, the mice were administered SAL (60 mg·kg−1) by gavage, while in the control group and the PM2.5 group, sterile saline (10 mL·kg−1) was administered by gavage. In the PM2.5 group and the SAL+PM2.5 group, PM2.5 suspension (8 mg·kg−1) was intratracheally instilled, and in the control group and SAL group, sterile saline (1.5 mL·kg−1) was intratracheally administered. Each experiment cycle spanned 2 d, with a total of 10 cycles conducted over 20 d. Histopathological changes in the ileum tissue of the mice were observed after HE staining. Colon contents were collected for gut microbiota sequencing and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) measurements. Results The PM2.5 group showed infiltration of inflammatory cells in the ileum tissue, while the SAL+PM2.5 group exhibited only a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared to the control group, the PM2.5 group showed decreased Shannon index (P<0.05) and increased Simpson index (P<0.05), indicating that the diversity of gut microbiota in this group was decreased; the SAL+PM2.5 group showed increased Shannon index compared to the PM2.5 group (P<0.05) and decreased Simpson index (P<0.05), indicating that the diversity of gut microbiota in mice intervened with SAL was increased. The principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) revealed a significant separation between the PM2.5 group and the control group, while the separation trend was less evident among the control group, the SAL group, and the SAL+PM2.5 group. The unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic means (UPGMA) clustering tree results showed that the control group and the SAL group clustered together first, followed by clustering with the SAL+PM2.5 group, and finally, the three groups clustered with the PM2.5 group. The PCoA and UPGMA clustering results indicated that the uniformity and similarity of the microbiota in the PM2.5 group were significantly decreased. Compared to the control group, the PM2.5 group showed decreased abundance of phylum Bacteroidetes and Candidatus_Saccharimonas (P<0.05) and increased abundance of phylum Proteobacteria, genus Escherichia, genus Bacteroides, genus Prevotella, genus Enterococcus, and genus Proteus (P<0.05). Compared to the PM2.5 group, the SAL+PM2.5 group showed decreased abundance of phylum Proteobacteria, phylum Actinobacteria, genus Prevotella, and genus Proteus (P<0.05), and increased abundance of Candidatus_Saccharimonas (P<0.05). The PM2.5 group showed reduced levels of propionic acid, valeric acid, and hexanoic acid compared to the control group (P<0.05), while the SAL+PM2.5 group showed increased levels of propionic acid, isobutyric acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, and hexanoic acid compared to the PM2.5 group (P<0.05). Conclusion Exposure to PM2.5 can cause pathological alterations, microbial dysbiosis, and disturbing production of SCFAs in intestinal tissue in mice. However, SAL can provide a certain degree of protective effect against these changes.

Research on the Application of Electromagnetic Navigation Technology in Surgical Robots / 中国医疗器械杂志

Due to the need to achieve precise operations during surgery, in order to prevent hand tremors and poor surgical field of view, more and more surgical robots are used in surgical operations combined with navigation technology to meet the requirements for surgical accuracy. Open surgery such as orthopaedics, joint replacement and neurosurgery on the market generally use optical navigation systems to guide robots to achieve precise positioning, but optical navigation systems cannot be used for operations in areas with small surgical space. Therefore, a robotic surgical system based on electromagnetic navigation technology that can be applied to the craniofacial area was proposed. By using this robot, the problems of difficult operation and low precision caused by the narrow craniofacial space can be solved. Key techniques and considerations are studied. The function of the developed prototype is verified through model tests. The test results show that the surgical robot under the electromagnetic navigation technology can achieve precise surgical operations improve the success rate of the doctor's surgery and reduce postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the effects of exosomes of human nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) on the differentiation of urine derived stem cells (USCs) into nucleus pulposus-like cells.Methods:USCs and NPCs were isolated and cultured in vitro. The exosomes of NPCs were extracted and detected by Western-blot. USCs cytoplasm was transfected with GFP lentivirus, while nucleus was transfected with DAPI dye. The NPCs exosomes were transfected with PKH26 dye. After co-incubation for 12 h, USCs and NPCs exosomes were observed by macroscopy. USCs differentiation was induced by NPCs exosomes and non-contact co-culture methods. The relative expression of marker gene mRNA of nucleus pulposus cells in each group and the absorbance at 450 nm wavelength were detected.Results:The isolated USCs had the ability to differentiate into osteocytes, adipocytes and chondrocytes with high expression of marker CD29 (99.57%), CD44 (97.46%) and CD73 (97.71%) and with low expression of negative proteins CD31 (0.59%) and CD45 (0.19%). The isolated NPCs highly expressed nuclear pulposus cell marker COL2A1, ACAN and SOX-9. The exosomes extracted from NPCs showed high expression of exosome marker CD63, CD81 and Tsg101. After 12 h co-incubation, NPCs exosomes fused with USCs membrane and appeared in the cytoplasm of USCs. At 3, 5 and 7 days of co-culture, the absorbance value of USCs cells in exosome group (0.44±0.004, 0.76±0.004, 0.82±0.006) was higher than that in co-culture group (0.39±0.022, 0.63±0.035, 0.69±0.012) ( P<0.05). The mRNA relative expression of USCs nucleus pulposus marker genes ACAN (1.80±0.31, 3.50±0.21, 5.35±0.31, 7.46±0.12), COL2A1 (1.43±0.15, 4.33±0.23, 6.89±0.22, 8.11±0.31), SOX-9 (2.21±0.13, 3.13±0.11, 3.96± 0.14, 4.52±0.26) and HIF-1α (1.45±0.16, 2.14±0.21, 4.31±0.41, 4.01±0.25) in exosomes group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05) at the 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st days. The mRNA relative expression of USCs nucleus pulposus marker genes ACAN (5.69±0.21, 6.69±0.13), COL2A1 (6.33±0.17, 7.89±0.15), SOX-9 (4.19±0.29, 4.38±0.12), HIF-1α (4.49±0.32, 4.96±0.26) in exosomes group were significantly higher than those ACAN (3.69±0.35, 5.13±0.23), COL2A1 (3.40±0.16, 6.79±0.19), SOX-9 (2.26±0.32, 3.69±0.26), HIF-1α (2.39±0.11, 3.96±0.13) in non-contact co-culture group ( P<0.05) at the 14th and 21st days. Conclusion:Human nucleus pulposus exosomes could induce differentiation of human USCs into nucleus pulposus-like cells in vitro. Compared with non-contact co-culture, exosomes have higher induction efficiency and can better maintain the proliferation activity of nucleus pulposus-like cells

Recent Advances in Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-associated Pneumonitis / 肿瘤防治研究

With the research progress on the biology and pathogenesis of cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have come into being, bringing a new hope for the survival of patients with advanced cancer and opening a new era of cancer immunotherapy. However, with the wide application of immunotherapy in clinical practice, ICI-related adverse events (irAEs) have gradually emerged and are widely known by first-line clinicians. ICIs primarily activate T cells that can attack normal tissues and organs in the body and cause a variety of adverse reactions. Checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is one of the rare complications with poor prognosis in irAEs. This article reviews the therapeutic mechanism of some ICIs; the incidence, risk factors, pathogenesis, and clinical and imaging manifestations of CIP; and the classification and treatment management of CIP.

Application of 256-slice CT coronary angiography in postoperative evaluation of graft patency after coronary artery bypass grafting in elderly patients / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To investigate the value of 256-slice CT coronary angiography(CTA)in evaluating graft patency after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)in elderly patients.Methods:A total of 30 elderly patients under follow-up after CABG surgery in our hospital from May 2016 to May 2018 were randomly selected.During the same period, coronary angiography(CAG)and 256-slice CTA were performed to evaluate the patency of grafts.The diagnostic efficacy of CTA in evaluating the patency of bypass grafts was assessed by using CAG results as the gold standard.Results:In all, 82 grafts were observed on CAG, of which 31 were arterial grafts and 51 were saphenous vein grafts(SVG). Arterial grafts involved 27 original left internal mammary arteries(LIMA)→left anterior descending branch(LAD)grafts, 1 original right internal mammary artery(RIMA)→LAD graft, 1 aorta(AO)→LIMA→LAD graft, and 2 AO→radial arteries(RA)→right coronary artery(RCA)grafts.Venous grafts involved 9 AO→SVG→LAD grafts, 20 AO→SVG→left circumflex artery(LCX)grafts, and 22 AO→SVG→RCA grafts.CAG results showed that 28 arterial grafts were unobstructed with a patency rate of 90.3%, while 3 arterial grafts(9.7%)were occluded.Meanwhile, 34 venous grafts were unobstructed with a patency rate of 66.7%, 11 venous grafts(21.6%)had stenosis and 6 grafts(11.8%)were occluded.A total of 87 grafts were observed by using CTA.Based on the results from CAG, the overall sensitivity, specificity and Kappa value of CTA for the assessment of grafts were 95.1%, 97.6% and 0.93, respectively.The sensitivity, specificity and Kappa value of CTA were 96.8%, 95.0% and 0.90 for assessing unobstructed grafts, 81.8%, 97.2% and 0.79 for assessing stenosed grafts, and 100%, 98.6%, and 0.94 for assessing occluded grafts, respectively.Conclusions:256-slice CT coronary angiography can be used to accurately evaluate graft status and possesses advantages such as non-invasiveness, simplicity and low risk.Therefore, it should be recommended as the first choice in the evaluation of graft patency after CABG in elderly patients.

20()-Protopanaxatriol promotes the binding of P53 and DNA to regulate the antitumor network multiomic analysis

Although the tumor suppressor P53 is known to regulate a broad network of signaling pathways, it is still unclear how certain drugs influence these P53 signaling networks. Here, we used a comprehensive single-cell multiomics view of the effects of ginsenosides on cancer cells. Transcriptome and proteome profiling revealed that the antitumor activity of ginsenosides is closely associated with P53 protein. A miRNA-proteome interaction network revealed that P53 controlled the transcription of at least 38 proteins, and proteome-metabolome profiling analysis revealed that P53 regulated proteins involved in nucleotide metabolism, amino acid metabolism and "Warburg effect". The results of integrative multiomics analysis revealed P53 protein as a potential key target that influences the anti-tumor activity of ginsenosides. Furthermore, by applying affinity mass spectrometry (MS) screening and surface plasmon resonance fragment library screening, we confirmed that 20()-protopanaxatriol directly targeted adjacent regions of the P53 DNA-binding pocket and promoted the stability of P53-DNA interactions, which further induced a series of omics changes.

Effect of cardiopulmonary bypass versus off-pump coronary artery bupass grafting on platelet inhibition rate and Aspirin resistance after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective To investigate the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)on platelet inhibition rate(INHAA) and Aspirin resistance (AR) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)surgery.Methods A total of 114 patients undergoing CABG surgery were divided into two groups:on-pump group(n=54)and off-pump group(n=60).Aspirin treatment(100 mg/d)was paused 7 days before surgery and continued 6 hours after surgery.INHAA was detected and calculated by using thrombelastography(TEG)at 6 hours after taking the last dose of aspirin before surgery(T0),12 hours (T1),5 days(T2),10 days (T3) and 15 days (T4) after surgery respectively.The incidence of AR was calculated.Results There was no significant difference in the overall INHAA between the two groups of on vs.off-pump(F =0.336,P =0.563),while the differences of INHAA index at each time point was statistically significant between two groups of on vs.off-pump(F =95.519,P =0.000).There was an interaction effect of timing and grouping(F =15.500,P =0.000).In comparison of INHAA between the two groups of on vs.off-pump at each time point,INHAA was higher in on-pump group than in off-pump group at T1 (P＜0.05),while INHAAbecame lower in on-pump group than in off-pump group at T2 (P＜0.05),and there was no statistical difference in INHAAbetween the two groups at T3 and T4 (P ＞0.05).In the on-pump group,the total difference of INHAA at different time points was significant (P＜0.05),and the INHAA was lower at T2 than at T1,T3,T4 (P＜0.05).In the off-pump group,the total difference of INHAA between different time points was significant(P＜0.05),and the INHAA was lower at T1 than at T2,T3,T4 (P＜0.05).In comparison of AR incidence after CABG surgery between two groups of on vs.off-pump at each time point,the incidence of AR was lower in on-pump group than in off-pump group at T1 (P ＜ 0.05),while there were no statistical significance between two groups of on vs.off-pump at T2,T3 and T4 (P＞0.05).In comparison of AR incidence after CABG surgery between two groups of on vs.off-pump at each time point,the incidence of AR was lower in on-pump group than in off-pump group at T1 (P ＜0.05),while there were no statistical significance between two groups of on vs.off-pump at T2,T3 and T4 (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The increase of platelet inhibition rate and aspirin resistance occurs in early period after CABG surgery.The platelet inhibition rate is higher and aspirin resistance rate is lower in on-pump group than in off-pump group at 12 h after surgery,and the platelet inhibition rate is lower at 5 days after CABG surgery in on-pump group than in off-pump group.CPB has little effect on the platelet inhibition rate and on the incidence of AR after 5 days of CABG surgery.
