RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To identify the role of mixed lineage kinase domain like protein(MLKL)in cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD)and explore the underlying mechanism.METHODS Transient bilateral common carotid artery occlusion(tBCCAO)was used to establish a mouse model of CSVD.Immunofluorescence staining and Western blotting were used to observe the expres-sions of RIPK3/MLKL signaling molecules in brain tissues at 7,14 and 28 d after tBCCAO.Open field test,rotarod test,Y-maze and novel object recognition test were used to observe the effect of MLKL knockout on cognitive func-tion after tBCCAO.Blood-brain barrier(BBB)disruption was observed by sodium fluorescein permeability test and the expressions of tight junction proteins.Immunoflu-orescence staining and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of microglia marker Iba-1,astro-cyte marker GFAP,and NLRP3/Caspase-1 signaling mol-ecules in the hippocampus of CSVD mice.ELISA was used to detect the level of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-18)in hippocampus.RESULTS The expres-sions of RIPK3/MLKL signaling molecules increased in cortex and hippocampus after tBCCAO,especially on day 14.The expression of pMLKL mainly increased in neurons,glia cells and endothelial cells in CSVD mice.MLKL knockout improved the cognitive functions such as motor learning,spatial learning and working memory,and object recognition ability in CSVD mice.MLKL knock-out alleviated the leakage of sodium fluorescein and attenuated the down-regulation of tight junction proteins at 1 d and 14 d after tBCCAO.At 14 d after tBCCAO,MLKL knock out inhibited the activations of microglia and astrocytes,attenuated the expressions of NLRP3/cas-pase-1 molecules,and decreased the levels of inflamma-tory factors in the hippocampus of mice.CONCLUSION Genetic inhibition of MLKL exerts protective effects against cognitive impairment by ameliorating BBB dam-age and neuroinflammation in a mouse cerebral small vessel disease model.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of SIMPLE regimen in the treatment of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL).Methods:The clinical data of 11 patients with ENKTCL who were admitted to the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital from January 2012 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients received 4-6 courses of SIMPLE (cisplatin, gemcitabine, ifosfamide, etoposide, dexamethasone, and pegasparaginase) regimen chemotherapy, and stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients who also received local radiotherapy after 2 or 3 courses of chemotherapy. Patients were evaluated for mid-treatment and end-of-treatment outcomes, and the adverse effects of patients were evaluated in each treatment cycle. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of the 11 patients.Results:All 11 patients were nasal type, with the median age of 41 years old (26-67 years old), including 5 males and 6 females, 3 relapsed cases and 8 newly treated cases. Of the 10 patients evaluated for efficacy, 9 achieved complete remission and 1 achieved at least partial remission (efficacy was assessed based on follow-up). All 11 patients were followed up for a median time of 50 months (15-72 months) and 2 relapsed patients died due to disease progression. The expected 5-year PFS rate and OS rate of 11 patients were both 90.0%, and the expected 5-year OS rate was 100.0% and 66.6% in newly treated and relapsed patients, respectively. Common adverse effects were hematologic adverse reactions, infections, gastrointestinal symptoms, elevated transaminases, and hypofibrinogenemia, all of which were curable. There is no treatment-related death.Conclusions:The SIMPLE regimen for the treatment of ENKTCL has a high remission rate, the patients have long survival time, and the regimen is moderately well tolerated.
RESUMO
Objective@#To validation and optimization the indicator system of risk assessment for mechanical cuts.@*Methods@#The risk assessment index system of mechanical cutting injury established earlier was used to assess the risk of mechanical cutting injury in 40 cases of mechanical cutting injury registered from January 2015 to December 2017 and 40 similar positions without accidents in the same period. The multiple stepwise regression analysis was used to screen the indicator system, and to adjust the weight coefficient of each index. The total coincidence rate and Kappa value were compared between before and after optimization respectively.@*Results@#The new index system has 3 first-class indicators, 10 second-class indicators and 14 three-class indicators, fewer than the old index system which has 3 first-class indicators, 10 second-class indicators, 34 three-class indicators. There three indicators have revamped in the first-class. The total of coincidence rates of the new and old indicator systems were 67.50% and 90.00%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The Kappa value were 0.35 and 0.80, respectively.@*Conclusion@#The evaluation results with new indicator systems is more consistent with the actual hazard detection the the old indicator systems, and scientific, reasonable and practical, and the indicator system of risk assessment for mechanical cuts can be used for the risk assessment of mechanical cutting injuries.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the influence of inactive FRMD4A gene′s expression on the biological behavior of tongue cancer CAL-27cell. Methods FRMD4A-siRNA was transfered into CAL-27 cell by lipidosome, to the expression of FRMD4A-siRNA in CAL-27 cell after transfection was detect by qRT-PCR cell proliferation , was checked by CCK-8,the influence of inactive FRMD4A gene on cell cycle distribution of CAL-27 cell was assayed by flow cytometry. Results Compared with the control group, FRMD4A mRNA expression significantly reduced in FRMD4A-siRNA interfering group (94%) and the cell proliferation index decreased(P<0.05). The cell cycle arrested in G1 period (P<0.05). Conclusion FRMD4A-siRNA could effectively inhibit FRMD4A mRNA expression in tongue cancer CAL-27cell, impact the distribution of cell cycle, and reduce cell proliferation.
