RESUMO

Ferroptosis is a kind of regulated cell death, supporting the pathological process of lung inflammation, including asthma. Quercetin (QCT), a kind of natural dietary flavonoid, exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-ferroptosis effects in various diseases. However, the role of QCT in ferroptosis-associated airway inflammation of neutrophilic asthma remains to be described. Our study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of QCT on neutrophilic airway inflammation of asthma. Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), as a kind of ferroptosis inhibitor, was used to demonstrate whether neutrophilic airway inflammation of asthma relied on ferroptosis. In our study, the alleviation effect of QCT on neutrophilic airway inflammation was similar to Fer-1. Moreover, the significantly decreased levels of ferroptosis anti-oxidant protein (GPX4 and SLC7A11), increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, upregulated levels of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) expression by immunohistochemistry, and distorted mitochondria morphological changes in the lung tissues suggested lung ferroptosis in neutrophilic airway inflammation, which could be reversed by QCT treatment. In vitro experiments showed that QCT reduced LPS-induced ferroptosis through upregulating cell viability and levels of ferroptosis anti-oxidant protein (SLC7A11 and GPX4), reducing inflammatory cytokines, and decreasing the levels of MDA. Furthermore, ferroptosis was accompanied by enhancing M1 phenotype in neutrophilic airway inflammation, and QCT suppressed ferroptosis by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory M1 profile in vitro and in vivo, just as Fer-1 did. In conclusion, our study found that QCT ameliorated ferroptosis-associated neutrophilic airway inflammation accompanied by inhibiting M1 macrophage polarization. QCT may be a promising ferroptosis inhibitor for neutrophilic airway inflammation.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Introduction The college sports environment is characterized by breadth, diversity, and personality. This is an important period to develop students' physical ability and improve their personality. Objective Compare the effects of different exercise methods on students' health status. Methods 2991 college students participated in different sports activities. These sports were conducted based on the selection course (PE), all during one semester. The students' physical health status was observed through experiments performed before and after the intervention. Results Activities such as basketball and soccer showed high effectiveness in improving students' vital capacity index, volleyball expressively improved students' performance in the long jump, tennis and table tennis were effective in improving students' strength and adherence index, being lower in other indices. Martial arts also stood out in improving the students' vital capacity index. Conclusion Improving physical health should be an overall process of students' fitness development, and universities should actively encourage college students to participate in long-term sports to improve their health. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.


RESUMO Introdução O ambiente do esporte universitário é caracterizado pela abrangência, diversidade e personalidade. Este é um período importante para desenvolver a capacidade física dos estudantes e melhorar a sua personalidade. Objetivo Comparar os efeitos de diferentes métodos de exercício sobre o estado de saúde dos estudantes. Métodos 2991 estudantes universitários participaram de diferentes atividades esportivas. Estes esportes foram conduzidos com base no curso de seleção (PE), todos durante um semestre. O estado de saúde física dos estudantes foi observado através de experimentos executados previa e posteriormente à intervenção. Resultados Atividades como basquetebol e futebol demonstraram alta efetividade para melhorar o índice de capacidade vital dos estudantes, voleibol melhorou expressivamente o desempenho dos alunos no salto em distância, o tênis e o tênis de mesa foram efetivos para aprimorar o índice de força e de adesão dos alunos, sendo inferior noutros índices. Também as artes marciais se destacaram ao melhorar o índice de capacidade vital dos alunos. Conclusão O aprimoramento da saúde física deve ser um processo global de desenvolvimento da aptidão física dos estudantes e as universidades devem encorajar ativamente os estudantes universitários a participar de esportes de longo prazo para melhorar sua saúde. Nível de evidência II; Estudos terapêuticos - investigação dos resultados do tratamento.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Familial progressive hyper- and hypopigmentation (FPHH) is a rare genodermatosis that is characterized by diffuse hyper- and hypopigmented spots on the skin and mucous membranes. It is caused by a pathogenic mutation of the KITLG gene. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical features and mutation of the KITLG gene in a Chinese family with FPHH. METHODS: Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of lesions from the proband was performed. The KITLG gene was screened for the presence of mutations. RESULTS: A Chinese family containing 14 individuals with FPHH was described, and the proband was a 5-year-old girl showing diffuse hyper- and hypopigmented lesions on her extremities and trunk. Histopathological and immunohistochemical staining for S100 and HMB45 of skin biopsy specimens from the hyperpigmented areas showed a striking increase in melanin throughout the epidermis, especially in the basal cell layer, and staining of hypopigmented area specimens displayed lower levels of melanin in the epidermis. Mutation analysis of the KITLG gene was performed, but no mutation was found. STUDY LIMITATIONS: The new pathogenic gene was not found. CONCLUSION: A family with FPHH was described. Analysis revealed that its members did not have any mutations of the KITLG gene, which provided evidence for genetic heterogeneity of this genodermatosis.
