Mechanism of Tumor T Cell Exhaustion from Perspective of ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi Transformation Malfunction / 中国实验方剂学杂志

In order to promote the innovative application of Sanjiao theory and Yingwei theory， this paper tries to apply the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation theory to the treatment of tumor diseases， integrating it with T cell exhaustion mechanism to elaborate on its scientific connotation and using network pharmacology and bioinformatics to elucidate the correlation between the anti-tumor mechanism of ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation and T cell exhaustion. The ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation function is closely related to the immunometabolic ability of the human body， and the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation system constitutes the immunometabolic exchange system within and outside the cellular environment. Cancer toxicity is generated by the fuzzy Sanjiao Qi， and the long-term fuzzy Sanjiao Qi is the primary factor leading to T cell exhaustion， which is related to the long-term activation of T cell receptors by the high tumor antigen load in the tumor microenvironment. Qi transformation malfunction of the Sanjiao produces phlegm and collects stasis， which contributes to T cell exhaustion and is correlated with nutrient deprivation， lipid accumulation， and high lactate levels in the immunosuppressed tumor microenvironment， as well as with the release of transforming growth factor-β and upregulated expression of programmed death receptor-1 by tumor-associated fibroblasts and platelets in the tumor microenvironment. Ying and Wei damage due to Sanjiao Qi transformation malfunction is similar to the abnormal manifestations such as progressive loss of exhausted T cell effector function and disturbance of cellular energy metabolism. Guizhi decoction， Shengming decoction， and Wendan decoction can correct T cell exhaustion and exert anti-tumor effects through multi-target and multi-pathways by regulating ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation， and hypoxia inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α） may be one of the main pathways to correct T cell exhaustion. It was found that HIF-1α may be one of the important prognostic indicators in common tumors by bioinformatics. The use of the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation method may play an important part in improving the prognosis of tumor patients in clinical practice.

[Discussion on the essential thought of Ma's warm moxibustion technique for "unblocking fu-organs"].

"Unblocking fu organs" is one of the essential principles of Ma's warm moxibustion technique, characterized as "dredging" and "harmonizing" for either deficiency or excess condition. Under the guidance of this therapeutic thought, the acupoints for moxibustion are mainly selected from the middle and lower parts of the body. Regarding the therapeutic approach, the acupoint prescription for moxibustion should be formed in line with warming and promoting circulation of fu organs; the moxibustion degree should be specially considered, in which, the mild moxibustion is recommended to induce promoting action; and the systematic moxibustion technique should be the root for dredging fu organs and regulating zang organs. Ma's mild moxibustion technique stresses on removing the obstruction of fu organs and emphasizes promoting the qi activity of sanjiao (triple energizer) and regulating the balance of five zang organs.

Acupuncture Can Regulate the Distribution of Lymphocyte Subsets and the Levels of Inflammatory Cytokines in Patients With Mild to Moderate Vascular Dementia.

Background: Vascular dementia (VD) is the second most common type of dementia after Alzheimer's disease, but there is a lack of definitive treatment for VD. Acupuncture treatment is effective in improving the cognitive impairment and behavioral capacity of patients with VD. In recent years, more studies indicated that peripheral inflammation and abnormal peripheral immune function may aggravate neuroinflammation and cognitive dysfunction. However, there are few studies about the acupuncture and the abnormal peripheral immune function of VD. Also, few studies concern the regulating effect of acupuncture on peripheral immunity of patients with VD. Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the effect of the "sanjiao" acupuncture method on peripheral immunity of patients with mild to moderate VD. Methods: A total of 30 patients with VD were involved in the acupuncture group (AG), which was treated with the "sanjiao" acupuncture method once a day for six times a week and lasted for 12 weeks, and 30 healthy elderly people were assigned to the normal group (NG), which had no treatment. The distribution of lymphocyte subsets and the levels of some inflammatory cytokines in the peripheral blood of subjects were evaluated using the flow cytometry (FCM) and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: A total of 60 subjects were involved in this study, while 58 subjects completed the entire trial. Before treatment, the levels of CD3+ T, CD4+ T cells, CD4+/CD8+, Tregs, B cells, IFN-γ, and IL-10 in patients with VD were significantly decreased compared with the normal group (all P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The level of TNF-α in peripheral blood of patients with VD was significantly increased (P < 0.01). After acupuncture treatment, the levels of CD3+ T, CD4+ T cells, and IFN-γ were significantly increased (all P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The level of TNF-α was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The proportion of Tregs was increased (P < 0.01), but it was still lower than that of the normal group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The acupuncture method can increase the proportion of CD3+, CD4+ T cells, and Tregs in peripheral blood of patients with VD. And, it reduces the levels of pro-inflammatory factor TNF-α, which achieves the anti-inflammatory effects and immunostimulation. It suggests that acupuncture can improve the peripheral immune dysfunction of patients with VD by regulating the distribution of lymphocyte subsets and the levels of inflammatory cytokines.

[RhoA/ROCK pathway involved in effects of Sanjiao acupuncture on learning and memory and synaptic plasticity in Alzheimer's disease mice].

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Sanjiao acupuncture(triple energizer acupuncture)on the small G protein guanosine triphosphate enzyme subfamily protein RhoA/Rho kinase (ROCK) pathway in Alzheimer's disease mice, and explore its effect on learning and memory function and neurosynaptic plasticity. METHODS: Forty SAMP8 senile dementia mice were randomly divided into model, Sanjiao acupuncture (acupuncture), non acupoint acupuncture (non-acupoint) and fasudil groups, with 10 mice in each group, another 10 SAMR normal aging mice were selected as normal aging group. Mice in the acupuncture group were treated with acupuncture intervention on "Danzhong"(CV18), "Zhongwan"(CV13), "Qihai"(BL24) and bilateral "Xuehai"(SP10) and "Zusanli" (ST36). Mice in the non-acupoint group were treated with acupuncture at each of the left and right non-acupoints under the ribs and mice in the fasudil group were intraperitoneally injected with fasudil (25 mg/kg). The mice in each group were given medicine or acupuncture on the second day after grouping for 28 continuously days, once a day. Morris water maze test was used to test the learning and memory ability of mice. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of neurons in hippocampus. The number of hippocampal neuron dendritic spine was detected by FD fast Golgi staining kit. The contents of ß-amyloid 42 (Aß42) and phosphorylated tau protein (p-tau) in hippocampus were detected by ELISA. Western blot was used to detect the protein relative expression levels of RhoA, ROCK, F-actin and p-cofilin in hippocampus. RESULTS: Compared with those in the normal aging group, the hippocampal neurons of the model group were disorderly arranged, the number of neuron was reduced, the escape latency, hippocampal Aß42 and p-tau contents, RhoA and ROCK protein expressions increased (P<0.05), the number of crossing the original platform, the number of neuronal dendritic spines, expressions of F-actin and p-cofilin decreased (P<0.05). After the interventions, there was no statistically significant difference in the above indicators in the non-acupoint group relevant to the model group (P>0.05). The acupuncture group and fasudil group improved the hippocampal pathological damage. The escape latency, hippocampal Aß42 and p-tau contents, the expressions of RhoA and ROCK protein decreased (P<0.05), and the number of crossing the original platform, the number of hippocampal neuron dendritic spines, expressions of F-actin and p-cofilin increased (P<0.05) in both of the acupuncture and fasudil groups in contrast to the model and non-acupoint groups. Compared with the acupuncture group, there was no significant difference in the above indicators in the fasudil group (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Sanjiao acupuncture may inhibit the activation of the RhoA/ROCK pathway, so as to improve the learning and memory function of AD mice, increase the number of hippocampal neuron dendritic spines, and promote synaptic plasticity.

Objective:To investigate the renoprotective effects that Sanjiao Qushi prescription ameliorates cationic bovine serum albumin （C-BSA） induced membranous nephropathy（MN） in mice model and its influence on nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2（Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1（HO-1） signaling pathway. Method:Sixty female BALB/c mice were randomly divided into the normal group（<italic>n</italic>=10） and the model group（<italic>n</italic>=50）. The mice in the model group received C-BSA injection via tail vein （6.5 mg·kg^-1）. The mice that were successfully modeled were randomized into the model group， the low dose Sanjiao Qushi prescription group（3.71 g·kg^-1）， the high dose Sanjiao Qushi prescription group（7.42 g·kg^-1） and benazepril hydrochloride group（1.3 mg·kg^-1）. And they were administered with the corresponding medicine by gavage once a day for four consecutive weeks. 24 hour-urine protein quantitation were performed before C-BSA injection and after C-BSA injection as well as the medicine gavage. When the treatment was finished， all of the mice were sacrificed and the biochemical indicators such as serum creatinine（SCr）， blood urea nitrogen（BUN）， triglyceride（TG）， total cholesterol（TC）， total protein（TP） and albumin（Alb） were measured. And the renal pathological morphology changes were observed by light microscope with hematoxylineosin（HE）， Masson and periodic acid-silver metheramine（PASM） staining. The deposition of immunoglobulin G（IgG） in the glomerulus was detected by fluorescence microscope. The expression of reactive oxygen species （ROS） of kidney was detected by fluorescence immunoassay. The protein expression levels of Nrf2 in cell nucleus and cytoplasm and the downstream protein factors HO-1 and NADH quinone acceptor oxidoreductase 1（NQO1） were detected by Western blot. Result:Compare to normal group， the levels of 24 hour-urine protein quantitation， TG and TC significantly increased in model group（<italic>P</italic><0.01）， while TP and Alb levels significantly decreased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The model group exhibited enlarged volume of glomerular， significantly thickened glomerular basement membrane（GBM）， fuchsinophilic protein deposition and spike formation through light microscope. Immunofluorescence staining for the model group exhibited granular deposition of IgG along the capillary wall. The expression of ROS in kidney significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The protein expression levels of Nrf2 in cell nucleus significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）， while Nrf2 in cytoplasm significantly decreased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）.The protein expression levels of HO-1 and NQO1 significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. Compared to model group， the levels of 24 hour-urine protein quantitation， TG and TC significantly decreased in each treated group（<italic>P</italic><0.01）， TP and Alb levels significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The pathological damages alleviated obviously. The expression of ROS in kidney significantly decreased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The protein expression levels of Nrf2 in cell nucleus significantly decreased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）， while Nrf2 in cytoplasm significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.05，<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The protein expression levels of HO-1 and NQO1 significantly increased（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. Conclusion:Sanjiao Qushi prescription worked on MN mice possibly by regulating related proteins in the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and relieving oxidative stress， thus decreasing 24 hour-urine protein and blood lipid， increasing serum protein， and alleviating the pathological damages to protect renal function and delay progress of the disease.

Exploration of the Idea of Unblocking and Regulating the Dai Meridian as Main Intervention in Abdominal Obesity Metabolic Syndrome / 上海针灸杂志

Abdominal obesity is a core factor in and necessary condition of diagnosing metabolic syndrome. Abdominal fat contains two parts: subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. Both are related to hypertension, impaired fasting blood glucose, diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Current studies often focus on visceral fat, but subcutaneous fat accumulation also has an inseparable relationship. Physical and chemical changes in abdominal fat cells result in abdominal fat thickening and density increase and cause changes in secretion of adipokines in this process. The common action of the two aspects leads to a number of metabolic problems. The sanjiao dysfunction brings about abdominal accumulation of phlegm, heat and stagnant turbidity and infiltration of them into blood vessels, which are the basic pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome. Abnormal Dai Meridian function plays a key role in this process. Unblocking and regulating the Dai Meridian as a core means, promoting functional activities of qi in the whole body and especially in the middle jiao and restoring the sanjiao function help the clinical treatment of metabolic syndrome.
