Berberine chloride (dual topoisomerase I and II inhibitor) modulate mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UCP1) in molecular docking and dynamic with in-vitro cytotoxic and mitochondrial ATP production.

Obesity initiates numerous diseases like cardiovascular, metabolic, and type 2 diabetes, and obesity is a vital cause of death worldwide. Plants are necessary to the source of life. Several drug compounds isolated from plants are called phytochemicals which are safe, effective drug moieties to treat several diseases. Berberine chloride is a dual topoisomerase I and II inhibitor, that exhibited potent antitumor activities against several malignancies. However, the effect of Berberine on mitochondria remains unknown. The focus of this study was to determine the role of Berberine on mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UCP1), ATP production, and cytotoxic effect of HEK293T cell at a time and dose-dependent manner analysis by CCK8 assay. The upregulation of mitochondrial UCP1 gene expression reduces adipocyte content by initiating thermogenesis. In this study, berberine chloride significantly up-regulates UCP1 gene expression in brown adipocytes. AT 10 µM concentration of Berberine 48 h treatment demonstrated significant cell death. The decreased level of ATP production leads to mitochondrial uncoupling. Initiate thermogenesis reducing fat droplets in adipocytes. The first time, we used molecular docking and dynamic of Berberine with UCP1 gene in this study and revealed therapeutic potential of Berberine via modulation of mitochondrial UCP1 gene. Further investigation will reveal new insight into mechanisms to treat metabolic-related diseases.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Comparison of early complications of midline catheter and peripherally inserted central catheter in intravenous infusion: a Meta-analysis / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To analyze and compare the incidence of catheter related complications between midline catheter (MC) and peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC) within 30 days. Provide guidance and basis for medical staff to choose appropriate intravenous infusion tools to prevent catheter related complications.Methods:The randomized controlled trials, clinical controlled trials and cohort studies about MC and PICC related complications were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, EBSCO, Ovid, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang database and CBM, which were published at home and abroad up to December 31, 2021. After screening the literatures, extracting data and quality evaluation according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, RevMan5.4 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of ten articles were included in this study, including two randomized controlled trials, a clinical controlled trials, a prospective cohort study and six retrospective cohort studies, with 12 765 cases in MC group and 33 783 cases in PICC group. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the incidences of catheter-related bloodstream infection and catheter displacement in MC group were significantly lower than those in PICC group ( RR=0.37, 95% CI 0.18-0.76, P<0.05; RR=0.49, 95% CI 0.25-0.97, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with PICC in the early stage of intravenous infusion, MC is safer and more effective. When continuous infusion of isotonic or near-isotonic medications is required, and there is no need for continuous vesicant medications, MC can be preferred. However, more large-sample and high-quality studies are still needed to provide a basis for the popularization of MC in China.

Requirements and Thoughts on Ethical Review of Clinical Research Manuscripts in Medical Academic Journals: from the Perspective of Ethics Committee / 中国医学伦理学

There are specific ethical requirements and review principles for submitting papers or reports in medical academic journals. Researchers often consult the ethics committee on the rationality of the ethical requirements of journals at the (to be) submission stage, or ask for assistance in solving the ethical review requirements of journals: applying for ethical review for the clinical research to which submitted papers or research reports. Based on the perspective of hospital ethics committee, this paper discussed the ethical review requirements of academic journals for clinical research papers or reports. Combined with the practice of handling clinical research authors’ demands, the current situation of applying for ethical review, common problems and cases, this paper put forward three suggestions: academic journals should concretize the ethical review requirements of submitted papers or reports; researchers should internalize "ethics first" in their hearts, and conduct research according to laws and regulations; ethics committee should give full play to positive guidance and services, and cooperate with clinical research management departments to strengthen and complete the supervision of clinical research. So as to provide ideas for further standardizing the publication of clinical research papers and reports.

A fatal familial insomnia patient newly diagnosed as having depression: A case report.

INTRODUCTION: Fatal familial insomnia (FFI) is a rare clinical case. The study was mainly to report the clinical symptoms and imaging and genetic characteristics of a FFI case with depression, with relevant literature summarized. PATIENT CONCERNS: A male, aged 57 years old, with mental disorders and progressive memory decline one year before admission. DIAGNOSIS: Clinical manifestations: he had obvious abnormal mental behavior, rapidly progressing dementia symptoms, stubborn insomnia, abnormal movements and laryngeal stridor after falling asleep at night. Imaging and genetic test results: the cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed frontal temporal lobe atrophy; the polysomnography results showed no effective sleep; the 14-3-3 test result of cerebrospinal fluid was negative; the prion protein (PRNP) test showed that the D178N gene locus had mutations. And the patient was finally diagnosed as FFI. INTERVENTIONS: There were no obvious effects in the treatment using medicines such as Risperidone, Olanzapine, Alprazolam, Clonazepam, and Deanxit. OUTCOMES: Mobility dysfunction of the patient was further aggravated. He was no longer able to move around on his own, and there were serious mental disorders. CONCLUSION: PRNP examination is of guiding significance for the diagnosis of the FFI of depression. Hence, it is very necessary to perform PRNP examination in clinical diagnosis of FFI of depression.

Population pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of tigecycline in the treatment of different infectious diseases / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

AIM: To provide reference for the clinical application of tigecycline and subsequent population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamics study in the future. METHODS: The Chinese and English keywords of "Tigecycline", "population pharmacokinetics", "population pharmacokinetic model", "pharmacodynamics" or "Tigecycline" pharmacokinetics "were used to search the relevant references published from the time of self-establishment to June 1, 2021 in PubMed, China Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang and other databases. The research progress of population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of tigecycline was reviewed. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: A total of 73 relevant references were retrieved, including 8 tigecycline PPK studies and 7 tigecycline PK/PD studies. At present, tigecycline PPK models had been established in patients with complex intra-abdominal infections, skin and skin and soft tissue infections, community-acquired pneumonia, nosocomial pneumonia, septic shock and other severe infections, including 8 two-compartment models. The main covariates affecting tigecycline plasma clearance were weight-related, liver function and renal function-related parameters. Body weight was also an important factor influencing the apparent volume of distribution. The effect of different disease types on the pharmacokinetics of tigecycline was different, and it needed to be considered and selected in combination with the specific circumstances of patients when formulating clinical dosing regimens. Pharmacodynamics studies should consider not only the type of disease, pathogens and patient factors themselves, but also the characteristics of atypical nonlinear plasma protein binding of tigecycline. In order to accurately understand the efficacy of different dose regimens, it was necessary to monitor the therapeutic drugs of tigecycline.

Dynamic expression of autophagy-related factors in autoimmune encephalomyelitis and exploration of curcumin therapy.

Curcumin has been used in the study of central nervous system immune-related diseases and exerts a substantial neuroprotective effect. However, the mechanism remains unclear. The AKT/mTOR autophagy-related signalling pathway plays an important role in tumour therapy, but whether curcumin plays a therapeutic role in multiple sclerosis (MS) through this signalling pathway remains to be determined. As an animal model of MS, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is induced by the myelin glial glycoprotein MOG35-55 in female C57BL/6 mice. We first evaluated the changes in autophagy levels in EAE mice. Then, curcumin was intraperitoneally injected into the mice, and the expression of AKT/mTOR autophagy signalling pathway-related proteins was evaluated. Our data show that 1. autophagy defects can cause neuronal damage in EAE mice; and 2. curcumin may regulate the activation of autophagy in EAE mice by affecting the AKT/mTOR autophagy signalling pathway, further balancing central nervous system and peripheral autophagy.

Oral administration of Ginkgolide B alleviates hypoxia-induced neuronal damage in rat hippocampus by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to explore the potential neuroprotective effects of Ginkgolide B (GB), a main terpene lactone and active component in Ginkgo biloba, in hypoxia-induced neuronal damage, and to further investigate its possible mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 54 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: the untreated control group (n=18); the hypoxia group (n=18; exposed to 6000 m simulated plateau altitude for six days); and the GB group (n=18; intragastric administration of 12 mg/kg GB three days prior to rapid adaption to 6000 m and on the first two days of hypoxia). After hypoxia exposure for six days, we dissected out the brain hippocampi and performed hematoxylin and eosin staining, Nissl staining, and TUNEL staining. Homogenates of the hippocampi were used to test the oxidative stress indices including malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and catalase. Bax and caspase-3 expression in the hippocampal tissue was measured using qRT-PCR. RESULTS: Treatment with GB before exposure to hypoxia could protect neural cells and increase the number of Nissl bodies. TUNEL and qRT-PCR results demonstrated that GB treatment could decrease apoptotic cells in different areas of the hippocampus. Antioxidant defense systems such as SOD, GSH, and catalase were decreased (P<0.05), and the concentration of MDA was reduced significantly in the hippocampi of rats of the GB group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: GB could alleviate hypoxia-induced neuronal damage in rat hippocampus by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis.

Therapeutic effect of work intensive training on workers with musculoskeletal injury / 中国职业医学

OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of work intensive training on workers with musculoskeletal injury(MSI). METHODS: A convenience sampling method was used to select MSI patients as research subjects. Patients were randomly divided into control group(179 cases) and experimental group(188 cases). On the basis of the conventional comprehensive rehabilitation treatment, the control group received the routine occupational rehabilitation intervention, and the experimental group received the work intensive training intervention. The intervention period was 4 weeks in both groups. We used the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD) Self-Rating Scale, the Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire(FABQ) and the General Self-efficacy Scale(GSES) to assess the recovery of MSI patients. The statuses of return to work of patients were followed up by telephone after six months of discharge from hospital. RESULTS: Compared with the same group before intervention, the scores of PTSD, FABQ-P and FABQ-W in the control group and the experimental group decreased, and the score of GSES increased(P<0.01). After the intervention, the scores of PTSD, FABQ-P and FABQ-W in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.01), and the score of GSES was higher than those in the control group(P<0.01). The rate of returning to work in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(80.9% vs 59.2%, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Work intensive training has curative effect on self-efficacy, physical activity, subjective pain, and post-traumatic stress disorder, and can improve the rate of resuming to work in patients with MSI.
