RESUMO

Introducción: La hipoacusia súbita (HS) es poco frecuente y su etiopatogenia no está definida. La terapia con corticoides es de elección en base a recomendaciones de expertos por sus efectos teóricos y no en base a utilidad clínica demostrada. Objetivo: Evaluar si existe correlación entre el resultado auditivo final, de pacientes con HS tratados con corticoides, y la respuesta in vitro de sus leucocitos a corticoides, medida como diferencias en la expresión relativa de genes blanco del receptor de glucocorticoides. Material y Método: Estudio de casos (recuperación total) y controles (no recuperados) de pacientes con HS tratados con corticoides en el Hospital Clínico de la Universidad de Chile, durante 2017-2019. Se obtuvo DNA que fue almacenado en el Biobanco de Tejidos y Fluidos de la Universidad de Chile (BTUCH). Se purificaron y cultivaron leucocitos mononucleares de sangre periférica, expuestos in vitro a hidrocortisona. Se determinó la diferencia en la expresión relativa de genes blanco (IGFBP1, CAT, HSD17B12, APOA2), por Q-RTPCR, entre ambos grupos. Resultados: Se reclutaron 35 pacientes; se incluyeron para análisis 23: 11 casos y 12 controles, con edad promedio de 54,9 y 50,8 años respectivamente, distribución homogénea de sexo. No hubo diferencia estadísticamente significativa en la expresión relativa de los genes blanco, a la exposición in vitro a corticoides, entre ambos grupos. Conclusión: En nuestro estudio, modelo, y sistema de evaluación no se evidenciaron efectos de los corticoides. No podemos descartar que, con un número mayor de pacientes, otros genes blanco u otros protocolos de estudio podrían detectarse diferencias.


Introduction: Sudden hearing loss (SHL) is rare and its etiopathogenesis is still not clear. Corticosteroid therapy is of choice based on expert recommendations due to its theoretical effects and no based on proved clinical efficacy. Objectives: To assess whether there is a correlation between the final auditory outcome of patients with SHL treated with corticosteroids and the in vitro response of their leukocytes to corticosteroids, measured as differences in the relative expression of glucocorticoid receptor target genes. Material and Method: Case-control (total recovery and not recovered respectively) study of patients with SHL treated with corticosteroids at Clinical Hospital Universidad de Chile between 2017 and 2019. DNA was obtained and stored in the Biobanco de Tejidos y Fluidos de la Universidad de Chile (BTUCH). Peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes were purified and cultured and then exposed to hydrocortisone. The difference in the relative expression of target genes (GFBP1, CAT, HSD17B12, APOA2), by Q-RTPCR was determined. Results: Thirty-five patients were recruited, 24 were included for the analysis: 11 cases and 12 controls, with and average age of 54.9 and 50.,8 years respectively, homogeneous sex distribution. There was no statistically significant difference in the relative expression of the target genes, upon in vitro exposure to corticosteroids, between both groups. Conclusion: In our study, model and evaluation system, no effects of corticosteroids were evidenced. With a larger number of patients, other target genes or other study protocols, we cannot rule out that differences could be detected.

RESUMO

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a serious cerebrovascular disease common in clinical practice. Targeting the pathogenesis of IS, intravenous thrombolysis for restoring blood flow is still the most effective therapy. However, intravenous thrombolysis has shortcomings such as increased bleeding risk, narrow therapeutic window, and contraindications, which limited its clinical application. Protection of the ischemic brain tissue before full recovery of blood flow is associated with the prognosis of IS. Studies have identified multiple pathways in the alleviation of the brain injury caused by IS, such as the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has abundant therapies and unique advantages in the treatment of IS, especially in alleviating symptoms and improving the quality of life of patients. After the onset of IS, TCM can be integrated with Western medicine to play a role in the whole process of treatment, rehabilitation, and recurrence prevention as soon as possible, thus maximizing patient benefits. TCM has clinical significance for the recovery of neurological and motor functions after IS. Studies have shown that TCM can reduce the cerebral injury caused by IS by regulating and activating the mTOR signaling pathway, thereby regulating autophagy, inhibiting apoptosis of nerve cells, and reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. TCM exerts a positive effect for achieving cerebral protection and improving the prognosis of IS and provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of IS. This article introduces the role of the mTOR signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of IS and reviews the research progress in the TCM regulation of this pathway in the treatment of IS, aiming to provide new therapeutic ideas and systematic scientific reference for the treatment of IS with TCM.

RESUMO

Objective To explore the mechanism of malignant behavior of cervical cancer(CC)cells based on AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/rapamycin target protein(mTOR)signaling pathway mediated by nucleo-tide-binding oligomerization domain receptor 2(NOD2).Methods Bioinformatics analysis was performed to deter-mine the expression of NOD2 in CC tissue.Plasmids targeting NOD2(shNOD2)and shRNAs negative control(shNC),NOD2 overexpression(NOD2)and vectors(Vec)were transfected into CC cells.The effect of NOD2 on the growth of CC cells was determined by cell counting kit-8 assay,colony formation and Transwell cell invasion as-say.Transcriptome analysis was performed by high throughput RNA sequencing(RNA-Seq).Western blot was used to detect the expression of NOD2,AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway and autophagy protein in the cell line.24 female BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into four groups,with 6 mice in each group:vector group(Vec group),NOD2 overexpression group(NOD2 group),shNC group and shNOD2 group.The distant metastasis mod-el was established in mice,and the fluorescence intensity of lung metastasis was monitored and the number of lung metastasis nodules was counted.Results On-line database analysis showed that the expression of NOD2 in CC tis-sues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues,and there were significant differences in the mRNA expres-sion of NOD2 in different stages of CC(P<0.05).In addition,the high expression of NOD2 was associated with poor overall survival and disease-free survival(P<0.05).NOD2 overexpression promoted the proliferation,colony formation,migration and invasion of CC cells,while NOD2 knock-down was the opposite.Consistent with the re-sults in vitro,the lung colonization and lung metastasis of CC cells in NOD2 group were significantly higher than those in Vec group(P<0.05),while those in shNOD2 group were significantly lower than those in shNC group(P<0.05).RNA-Seq results showed that the expression of NOD2 was significantly related to AMPK signal activa-tion,mTOR signal inhibition,autophagy regulation pathway activation and autophagy formation.Compared with shNC group,the expression of phosphorylated AMPK and LC3 protein decreased significantly in shNOD2 group(P<0.05),and the expression levels of phosphorylated mTOR and p62 protein increased significantly(P<0.05).Compared with Vec group,the expression levels of LC3 and AMPK protein in NOD2 group increased significantly(P<0.05),and the expression levels of phosphorylated mTOR and p62 protein decreased significantly(P<0.05).Compared with shNC group,the point accumulation of GFP-mRFP-LC3 in shNOD2 group decreased signifi-cantly(P<0.05).Compared with Vec group,the point accumulation of GFP-mRFP-LC3 increased significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion NOD2 may promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of CC through AMPK/mTOR signal,and its mechanism partly involves autophagy activation.

RESUMO

Monopolar spindle 1, also known as threonine and tyrosine kinase (TTK), is a key component of spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC). It is considered to be a monitoring mechanism to ensure mitotic fidelity and genomic stability. TTK is overexpressed in a variety of malignant tumors, and patients with low expression of TTK tend to have a longer survival time, suggesting that it may be used as a biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis. Abnormal expression of TTK often impairs the function of SAC, resulting in irregular mitosis, increased aneuploidy and mitotic disaster, thus promoting the occurrence of tumors. Current studies have shown that TTK inhibitors can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to therapy in combination with chemotherapy or radiotherapy to achieve sensitization and attenuated effects. This article will review the research and application of TTK and its inhibitors in malignant tumors.

RESUMO

Objective:To predict Chinese materia medica that may prevent and treat coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) by identifying disease core targets.Methods:CMD- related targets were obtained through GeneCards and OMIM databases. Subnetworks were extracted by using MCODE plugin in Cytoscape 3.9.1. Core targets of subnetworks were obtained by using cytoNCA plugin. GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis for core targets were performed by using Metascape. Coremine Medical database was used to match targets with Chinese materia medica. Obtained Chinese materia medica was screened, and their properties and tastes, meridians and efficacy categories were under statistics.Results:Totally 3 859 disease-related targets were screened and five subnetworks were obtained. An in-depth study of MCODE1 yielded ten core targets, including IL-1β, IL6, TNF, STAT3, AKT1, ACTB, VEGFA, GAPDH, TP53, and ALB. GO functional enrichment analysis showed that these core targets were mainly involved in biological processes, such as positive regulation of gene expression, positive regulation of transcription, DNA template, and negative regulation of gene expression. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis identified 67 signaling pathways, including the AGEs-RAGE signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, adipocytokine signaling pathway, fluid shear stress, and atherosclerosis. The researchers identified 36 kinds of Chinese materia medica associated with the ten core targets, including Salviea Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Chuanxiaong Rhizoma, Carthami Flos, Paeoniae Radix Rubra, Coptidis Rhizoma, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, Ophiopogonis Radix, Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus, Cinnamomi Cortex, Nelumbinis Semen, and Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix among 880 herbs.Conclusion:This study predicts 36 kinds of Chinese materia medica that have the effect of preventing and treating CMD, which can provide research ideas for the development of new drugs.

RESUMO

In recent years, the discovery of Group 2 innate lymphoid cells(ILC2) has expanded the understanding of type 2 immunity and promoted the birth of the concept of type 2 inflammation.Type 2 inflammation is an inflammatory reaction mediated by both innate and adaptive immunity.It is mainly involved by ILC2 cells and T helper 2 cells and is characterized by upregulation of type 2 cytokines and IgE-mediated release of inflammatory mediators and barrier dysfunction.Due to the common intrinsic mechanism, several kinds of type 2 inflammatory diseases always coexist in the same person, and their prevalence rate and severity continue to rise among children and adolescents, placing a heavy burden on them and their families.This review summarizes the recent development in understanding the mechanism of type 2 immune response and the pathophysiological mechanism of type 2 inflammatory diseases, emphasize the importance of ILC2 and summarize some targeted biologics used in the treatment of related diseases, so as to have a more systematic, comprehensive and in-depth understanding of type 2 inflammation.

RESUMO

Objective To observe and compare in-hospital and 1-year survival and prognosis of patients with 4b acute myocardial infarction(AMI)caused by early and late stent thrombosis(ST).Methods A total of 302 patients with 4b acute myocardial infarction caused by ST were enrolled in this study from January 2015 to February 2018.ST patients were confirmed by coronary angiography.These patients were divided into two groups:the early ST group(n=26)and the late ST group(n=276)according to the time of ST occurrence.Endpoint events during hospitalization and one year of follow up were compared between the two groups of patients.The primary endpoint events included cardiac death and recurrent AMI.The secondary endpoint events included target lesion revascularization(TLR),re-stent thrombosis,heart failure and stroke.The incidence of no endpoint events was compared between two groups of patients by Kaplan and Meier survival analysis.Cox regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors for endpoint events in patients with type 4b AMI.Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of the primary endpoint events during hospitalization between the two groups(7.7%vs.3.3%,P=0.243).The incidence of heart failure was higher in the early ST group than that of the late ST group(11.5%vs.1.4%,P=0.016).There was no significant difference in the incidence rates of other secondary endpoint events between the two groups(P>0.05).After a mean follow-up of 1 year,the incidence rates of primary endpoint events and the secondary eendpoint events were higher in the early ST group(20.0%vs.5.9%,P<0.05 and 36.0%vs.11.5%,P<0.01)than that of the late ST group.Kaplan and Meier survival analysis showed that the 1-year cumulative incidences of non-primary(P= 0.022)and non-secondary events(P<0.001)were lower in the early ST group than those of the late ST group.Cox regression analysis showed that hypertension and history of coronary artery bypass grafting were independent risk factors for primary endpoint events in patients with 4b AMI,and intraoperative implantation of intraaortic balloon pump(IABP)and shortening the time from stent thrombosis to balloon dilation(ST to B)were independent protective factor.Conclusion Early ST patients have similar in-hospital outcomes and poor long-term prognosis compared with late ST induced 4b type AMI patients.Intraoperative implantation of IABP and shortening of ST to B time may improve the prognosis of 4b type AMI patients.

RESUMO

Objective To construct a canine model of vocal cord scar by low-termperature plasma ablation and screen the target genes closely related to the formation of vocal cord scar.Methods Four Chinese rural canines were treated with plasma ablation under the support of laryngoscope and endoscope,and the left vocal cords were injured to the muscle layer.The contralateral sides were left untreated.The gross morphology of vocal cord was observed before operation,immediately after operation,3 weeks after operation and 12 weeks after operation.The pathologi-cal structure of vocal cords was observed by HE stainning,and the ultrastructure of vocal cords was observed by transmission electron microscopy.In addition,high-throughput sequencing was used to analyze the differences in gene expression between the bilateral vocal cords,and the target genes with significantly different expression were screened out.Results In general morphology,the normal vocal cords were banded and well closed.At 3 weeks af-ter operation,the vocal cords were congested and swollen,with uneven edges and red granulation tissues were seen.At 12 weeks after operation,the vocal cord wound was localized contracture and depression,and scar was formed.HE staining showed obvious thickening of the squamous epithelium of the scarred vocal cords,thickening and disor-dered arrangement of the fiber layer,local clumping or bundle aggregation,and scattered fiber bundles were also seen in the muscle layer.Transmission electron microscopy showed interstitial thickening,uneven density,cell swelling,unclear intercellular boundary,proliferation of nuclei and mitochondria,and cells in an active state.High-throughput sequencing analysis revealed that many gene families were involved in the process of vocal cord scar re-pair,including IL family,CCL and CXCL family,MMPs family and its inhibitor TIMPs family,Wnt family,HSP family,MAPK family and TGF-β family.Conclusion We successfully constructed the canine model of vocal cord scar by low-temperature plasma ablation and screened out the target genes closely related to the formation of vocal cord scar by high-throughput sequencing,which provides certain reference value for exploring the mechanism of vo-cal cord scar.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation on the motor function of patients with Parkinson's disease,and to compare the efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation at different targets on the motor function of patients with Parkinson's disease,so as to provide a theoretical basis for the target selection of transcranial direct current stimulation in clinical practice. METHODS:Cochrane Library,PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI,VIP,WanFang Data were retrieved for randomized controlled trials on the improvement of motor function in patients with Parkinson's disease by transcranial direct current stimulation published from the database inception to January 2023.The keywords were"Parkinson,transcranial direct current stimulation"in English and Chinese.The quality of the included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane 5.1.0 risk of bias assessment tool and the PEDro scale.Meta-analysis of outcome indicators was performed using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS:Fifteen randomized controlled trials were finally included,and the PEDro scale showed that all were high-quality or very high-quality studies.Meta-analysis showed that transcranial direct current stimulation significantly improved Unified-Parkinson Disease Rating Scale part III score[mean difference(MD)=-2.49,95%confidence interval(CI):-4.42 to-0.55,P<0.05),step frequency score(MD=0.07,95%CI:0.03-0.11,P<0.05)and step speed score(MD=0.02,95%CI:0.00-0.05,P<0.05),but not for Berg Balance Scale scores(MD=2.57,95%CI:-0.74 to 5.87,P>0.05).Network Meta-analysis probability ranking:In terms of Unified-Parkinson Disease Rating Scale part III scores,the probability ranking results of target stimulation efficacy were dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex(52.4%)>primary motor cortex(45.8%)>central point of the brain(1.8%)>conventional rehabilitation(0%);in terms of gait frequency scores,the probability probability ranking results of target stimulation efficacy were cerebellum(50.1%)>central point of the brain(45.8%)>dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex(3.9%)>primary motor cortex(0.2%)>conventional rehabilitation(0%);in terms of gait speed scores,the probability ranking results of target stimulation efficacy were cerebellum(64.8%)>dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex(23.8%)>central point of the brain(9.4%)>primary motor cortex(1.7%)>conventional rehabilitation(0.4%);in terms of Berg Balance Scale scores,the probability ranking results of target stimulation efficacy were cerebellum(77.4%)>dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex(20.7%)>central point of the brain(0.7%)>conventional rehabilitation(0.2%). CONCLUSION:Transcranial direct current stimulation significantly improves motor function of patients with Parkinson's disease,with better motor coordination in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and better walking and balance in the cerebellum.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND:In clinical application,the therapeutic effect of transcranial magnetic stimulation depends on the ability to accurately target the areas of the brain that need to be stimulated.In recent years,with the development of neuronavigation systems,mobile augmented reality technology,and the new methods of processing magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)data,the accuracy of stimulus target localization and the optimization of target selection are expected to improve further. OBJECTIVE:To review the principle of MRI-based image navigation and its application in transcranial magnetic stimulation and summarize the roles of different modal MRI data analyses in guiding the selection of target areas for transcranial magnetic stimulation. METHODS:An online computer search for relevant literature was performed in PubMed,CNKI database and WanFang database,with the keywords"transcranial magnetic stimulation,coil positioning,neuronavigation,augmented reality,magnetic resonance,theory."Finally,63 documents were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Among the traditional methods of positioning transcranial magnetic stimulation coils,the"5 cm rule"and the international electroencephalogram 10-20 positioning method are the most commonly used.These methods have the advantages of simplicity and economy,but they rely too much on the operator's experience and there were technical differences between operators.The neuronavigation system,which is based on stereotactic technology,is the guiding method for positioning transcranial magnetic stimulation coils with the highest visual degree and accuracy.It achieves visual positioning through MRI data acquisition,3D brain reconstruction,head model registration and stereogeometric positioning.It has high application value in clinical treatment and scientific research,but it cannot be promoted in medical institutions due to its high cost.For various medical institutions,mobile augmented reality is a cost-effective and efficient alternative to the neuronavigation system,which achieves visual positioning of brain tissue under the scalp through MRI data acquisition,2D/3D image construction,virtual image and real brain image superposition.It has the advantages of directly visualization and low cost,and is expected to be popularized and applied in primary medical units.Although the superiority of clinical efficacy of visual coil positioning over the electroencephalogram 10-20 localization strategy has not yet been fully demonstrated,with the progress of brain MRI data analysis,visual positioning is expected to further optimize the target selection strategy of transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy and to improve the response rate and individuation degree of transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment.This is a promising and challenging research direction in the future.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND:Yougui Pill is a famous formula of the Chinese traditional medicine,which has good efficacy for lumbar disc herniation due to kidney yang insufficiency. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the potential targets and mechanism of action of Yougui Pill in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation by using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology,and verified by animal experiments. METHODS:(1)Network pharmacological analysis:We obtained the active ingredients and targets of Yougui Pill from TCMSP and other databases,collected genes related to lumbar disc herniation from GeneCards database,and took the intersection of the two for the topological analysis to derive the main active ingredients and core therapeutic targets.Gene ontology function analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis were performed using R software.(2)Molecular docking:Autodock and Pymol software were utilized for the prediction of molecular binding energy of TCM active ingredients to core therapeutic targets.(3)Animal experiments:Eighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group,a degeneration group and a Yougui Pill group,with 6 rats in each group.A rat model of intervertebral disc degeneration was prepared by fiber puncture method in the degeneration and Yougui Pill groups.At 2 weeks after modeling,Yougui Pill was given by gavage in the Yougui Pill group,once a day for 2 consecutive weeks.The level of tumor necrosis factor-α in serum was detected by the ELISA method,and morphological changes of the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus cells were observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were 90 active ingredients and 64 targets,and the main active ingredients were found to be quercetin,kaempferol,β-carotene,soybean flavonoid,and 4'-O-methylnyasol.The core targets of Yougui Pill for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation were interleukin 6,tumor necrosis factor-α,AKT1,interleukin 1B,and vascular endothelial growth factor A.Enrichment analysis revealed that the intersecting genes might be expressed through the interleukin-17 signaling pathway,tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway,MAPK signaling pathway,PI3K-AKT signaling pathway,and other signaling pathways to improve intervertebral disc degeneration.The molecular docking test verified that quercetin,kaempferol,and β-carotene had strong binding ability to the core targets.Animal experiments showed that the level of serum tumor necrosis factor α in the degeneration group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),and the level of serum tumor necrosis factor α in the Yougui Pill group was lower than that in the degeneration group(P<0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that the fibrous annulus of the intervertebral discs and the structure of the nucleus pulposus in the degeneration group were destroyed,and the number of nucleus pulposus cells was reduced;there was a tendency to reconstructing the fibrous annulus of the intervertebral discs in the Yougui Pill group,and the number of nucleus pulposus cells increased compared with the degeneration group.To conclude,Yougui Pill may treat lumbar disc herniation by improving disc degeneration through the effects of quercetin,kaempferol,beta-carotene and other key active ingredients on core targets such as tumor necrosis factor.
