    Abstract:
    Objective: To study the intervention effect of Zhuangfang Soft Liver and Fibrous Granules on CCl4 compound factor‑induced liver fibrosis rat model and its effect on α‑SMA and E‑Cadherin protein expression.Methods: Forty‑eight male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group, a pathological model group and a group of 16 rats in each group. The rats in the pathological model group and the pellet group were injected subcutaneously with 40% carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) oil combined with peanut oil to establish an animal model of rat liver fibrosis, and the pellets were administered by gavage three times a week for 8 weeks from the 5th week. The expression of oxidative stress oxidase dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) was detected by enzyme‑linked immunoassay (ELISA), and the expression of α‑smooth muscle actin (α‑SMA) and E‑calmodulin (E‑Cadherin) was detected by RT‑PCR and Western Blot. expression. Results:Compared with the blank group, the serum ALT and AST levels of the rats in the pathological model group were significantly increased, and the serum ALT and AST levels of the rats in the soft liver and fibrous pellet group were significantly decreased (P<0.001). In the pathological model group, the lobular structure of liver tissue was mutilated and numerous liver fibrous tissues were abnormally proliferated, and the collagen fibers formed by the proliferation were confluent into dense fibrous intervals, thus turning into pseudolobular structure, and a large number of fatty degenerated hepatocytes of different shapes and sizes appeared inside the pseudolobular structure, and the diffuse infiltration of inflammatory cells was significant. Compared with the pathological model group, the degree of destruction of hepatic lobular structure was significantly reduced in the LBP group, and there were different degrees of proliferation of collagen fibrous tissue concentrated in the area from the central vein to the confluent area, and the fibrous septum was relatively loose, with a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration, and the degree of infiltration was reduced compared with the pathological model group. Compared with the pathological model group, the SOD level was significantly higher in the group of liver softener and fibrous pellets compared with the pathological model group and the blank group (P<0.001), the MDA level was significantly lower in the group of liver softener and fibrous pellets compared with the pathological model group (P<0.001), the expression level of α‑SMA was significantly lower in the group of liver softener and fibrous pellets (P<0.001), and the expression level of E‑Cadherin was significantly higher in the group of liver softener and fibrous pellets (P<0.001). Conclusion: Soft Liver Fibro Pellets can effectively inhibit liver fibrous tissue proliferation and reduce the serum ALT and AST levels in rats with CCl4 combined with peanut oil compound solution induced liver fibrosis, and its anti‑liver fibrosis mechanism may be through protecting liver function, reducing the level of oxidative stress, down‑regulating the expression of α‑SMA protein, up‑regulating the expression of E‑cadherin protein, and inhibiting epithelial‑mesenchymal transition epithelial mesenchymal transformation (EMT) and thus exerting therapeutic effects on CCl4 compound‑induced hepatic fibrosis in rats.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the role and mechanism of mTOR in sorafenib‑ameliorated liver fibrosis by inducing hepatic stellate cells (HSC) ferroptosis. Methods: The liver fibrosis models of C57BL/6 male mice were induced with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and randomly divided into normal group, model group, and sorafenib low (2.5 mg/kg), medium (5 mg/kg), and high (10 mg/kg) dose groups. Except for the normal group, the remaining four groups were treated with intraperitoneal injection of CCl4 for 8 weeks to establish liver fibrosis models. In addition, the corresponding concentrations of sorafenib were administered during the fourth week of modeling. Western blot was used to detect the expression of mTOR and p‑mTOR protein in liver tissues. In vitro experiments, HSC‑T6 cells were activated by PDGF‑BB and then treated with sorafenib (5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM), an mTOR inhibitor and activator. CCK8 was used to detect HSC‑T6 cell viability, Western blot detected the protein expression of α‑SMA, COL1α1, GPX4, mTOR and p‑mTOR. The levels of serum iron, GSH, and MDA were measured, and the intracellular ROS level was measured by 2',7'‑dichlorofluorescein diacetate and dihydroethidium.Results: In vitro results showed that sorafenib significantly decreased the protein expression of α‑SMA, COL1α1, GPX4 and p‑mTOR, and decreased the level of GSH and increased the content of iron, MDA and ROS in HSC‑T6 (P<0.05). Sorafenib (5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM) significantly inhibited the cell viability of PDGF‑BB‑enhanced HSC‑T6 (P<0.05). When mTOR was inhibited, the protein expressions of α‑SMA, COL1α1 and GPX4 and the level of GSH were lower (P<0.05), and the contents of iron, MDA and ROS were further increased (P<0.05). When mTOR was activated, the results were reversed. Conclusion: Sorafenib induced ferroptosis to alleviate liver fibrosis, and inhibition of mTOR further enhanced the effect of sorafenib.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To observe the effects of and explore the underlying mechanisms of Periplogenin (PPG) on the regulation of proliferation, apoptosis and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma Hep3B cell.Methods: Hep3B cells were divided into control group and PPG group. The Hep3B cells in the control group were not treated with PPG, and the other in the PPG group were intervened with 2.5, 5 and 12.5 µmol/mL PPG for 48 h. Cell viability was measured using the CCK⁃8 assay. Cell morphological changes was observed using by light microscope; The apoptotic state was observed by DAPI/PI staining. The colony⁃formation assay and scratch method was used for detecting the cell clone forming ability and cell migration ability, respectively. The cell apoptosis⁃related proteins Caspase⁃3, Cleaved Caspase⁃3, Bcl⁃2 and cell migration⁃related protein Matrix metalloproteinase⁃9 (MMP⁃9) were detected by Western Blot. Results: Compared with the control group, the cell proliferation level and the cell number in each PPG group were decreased, accompanying by cell volume reduction, chromatin pyknosis, and nuclear rupture in Hep3B cells. After PPG treatment, the clone formation level and cell mobility of Hep3B cells were decreased. Compared with the control group, the level of Bcl⁃2 protein was decreased, while the proportion of Cleaved Caspase⁃3/Caspase⁃3 protein was increased. The expression of MMP⁃9 proteins was decreased, with significantly statistically differences (P<0.05).Conclusion: Periplogenin could inhibit the proliferation, and migration of Hep3B cells and also promote the cell apoptosis in a dose⁃dependent manner, which might be related to the activation of Caspase signaling pathway and inhibition of MMP⁃9 activity.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the effect of Wujiadan Recipe on PLC‑β1, IP3, IP3R, Cam, PLC‑β1, IP3R1 mRNA and GnRH, Cam protein from hypothalamus tissue of ovariectomized female rats, and to further clarify whether Wujiadan Recipe plays a role through PLC‑β/IP3/CaM signal pathway.Methods: We randomly divided 64 SD adult female rats into NG group(normal group), MG group(the model group), TMC group(the control group with traditional Chinese medicine ),WMC group(the control group with western medicine ) with 10 rats in each, and Wujiadan Recipe high(WH), Wujiadan Recipe medium(WM) and Wujiadan Recipe low dose group(WL) with 8 rats in each. Except the NG group, we removed the ovarian tissues of other six groups to establish the ovariectomized model. When the model is successfully replicated, we give the medicine to the rats in each group once a day. The TMC and WMC group were given the corresponding dose of Gengnian'an tablet suspension and Bujiale suspension by gavage respectively. The NG and MG group were given equal measure of normal saline. After 4 weeks, the rats were killed. We use ELISA to detecte the levels of PLC‑β1, IP3, IP3R and Cam ; and we use PCR to detecte the mRNA expression levels of PLC‑βand IP3R1; and use WesternBlot to detecte the protein expression levels of Cam and GnRH in rat hypothalamus tissue. Results: The test results of PLC‑β1, IP3, IP3R and Cam in the hypothalamus homogenate of the model group were significantly increased than the NG group (P<0.01). The results of PLC‑β1 and IP3R1 and GnRHmRNA were significantly increased (P<0.01), and the expressions of GnRH and Cam protein were higher than NG (P<0.01). Wujiadan Recipe could reduce the results of PLC‑β1, IP3, IP3R and Cam in hypothalamus of ovariectomized rats, and reduce the expression of PLC‑β1 and IP3R1 and GnRH mRNA. Conclusion: Wujiadan Recipe down‑regulates GnRH expression, which may be caused by acting on PLC‑β1, IP3, IP3R, CaM in hypothalamus of ovariectomized rats, so as to coordinate the function of reproductive axis and improve the reproductive endocrine level of patients with menopausal syndrome.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To explore relationships between CANX expression, prognosis and immune infiltration of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.Methods: The TIMER database was used to compare the CANX expression among a variety of TCGA tumor and normal tissue samples. The difference of CANX expression between AML and normal samples was found by R software. The Kaplan‑Meier method and Log‑Rank test were used to assess the relationship between CANX expression and patient survival. The R software was used to find correlations between CANX expression, clinical characteristics, drug sensitivity, and immune infiltration in AML.Results: The differential expression of CANX in 13 tumor and normal tissue samples were statistically significant (P<0.05). The high CANX expression was associated with a favorable prognosis (P<0.05), which was validated in GSE37642. The expression of CANX was correlated with age, survival status, FAB stage, and karyotype (P<0.05). High CANX expression, low age and favorable karyotype were independent predictors of a favorable prognosis (P<0.05). CANX expression may affect the sensitivity of AML patients to multiple drugs (P<0.05). The expression of CANX was positively correlated with that of M1 macrophages and CD8 T cells.Conclusion: CANX may be used as a novel potential biomarker, and could benefit AML patients by predicting patient prognosis and providing precise treatment indications.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of platelet‑to‑lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy. Methods: This study was pre‑registered in PROSPERO (No. CRD42020186645). Two reviewers independently performed a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library databases, China Biology Medicine disc (CBM), Wanfang database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) from inception to May 2021 for prospective or retrospective cohort studies evaluating the prognostic value of PLR. Literature was analyzed with inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data and other useful clinicopathological features were extracted and analyzed with fixed or random‑effect models when applicable. Heterogeneity was assessed on the basis of Cochran’s Q test and I2 statistic. Publication bias was assessed with funnel plots and precisely assessed by Egger's tests. Results: A total of ten studies involving 3 287 UTUC patients were included. Meta‑analysis showed that elevated preoperative PLR was associated with worse overall survival (HR=1.51, 95%P 1.17~1.94, CI=0.001), cancer specific survival (HR=1.52, 95%CI 1.21~1.90,P<0.001), disease free survival (HR=1.32, 95% CI 1.12~1.56,P=0.001), and progression free survival (HR=1.88, 95% CI 1.41~2.52, P<0.001). Furthermore, the sensitivity analyses validated the stability and reliability of the results.Conclusion: The present meta‑analysis demonstrates a significant association between elevated preoperative PLR and poor prognosis of UTUC patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy. Hence, PLR could be helpful as a potential prognostic biomarker to guide clinical decision‑making and select individualized treatment strategies for UTUC patients. However, more prospective and large‑scale trials are needed to provide more evidence.

    Abstract:
    With the influence of many factors such as the aging of the population, the younger smokers, and the serious air pollution, the incidence of chronic respiratory diseases is increasing year by year. In the treatment of respiratory diseases, clinical intervention is still mainly based on drug control of pulmonary symptoms. However, systemic drugs have disadvantages such as many adverse reactions and severe systemic side effects. In recent years, the research and development of local drug delivery systems for the respiratory tract has brought new changes to the treatment of respiratory diseases. Locally delivered drugs can directly act on the airways and have the characteristics of fast onset, good curative effect and small side effects. It is a simple, efficient and safe treatment method, which has a very significant effect, and has become a hot topic of current research and promotion. This paper briefly reviews the development track and latest research progress of respiratory local drug delivery systems at home and abroad, in order to provide reference for clinical workers in drug selection and application.

    Objective: The current study aims to identify the effects of exogenous application of pulsed electromagnetic fields on skin wound healing in diabetic rats, and thus provides experimental evidence for its more scientific clinical application in the future. Methods: The diabetic animal models were established via intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin in 4-monthold male rats. Fourth eight rats were randomly assigned into the diabetes group (DM) and diabetes coupled with pulsed electromagnetic fields (DM+PEMF) group. Another 24 normal rats were used as the blank control group (Control). Then, all the rats in the three groups were subjected to dorsal surgery for the establishment of soft tissue wound model (circular wound with the diameter of 2 cm). Then, the rats in the DM+PEMF group were subjected to pulsed electromagnetic fields stimulation. Then, 6 rats in each group were sacrificed at Day 5, 12 and 19 post surgery. The glucose levels, wound closure, wound healing time and tissue tensile strength were examined and analyzed. Results: Pulsed electromagnetic fields significantly increased the wound closure rate in diabetic rats at Day 5, 12 and 19 post surgery, decreased overall wound healing period in diabetic rats, and also enhanced tissue tensile strength in diabetic rats at Day 5, 12 and 19 post surgery. Conclusion: Low-intensity pulsed electromagnetic fields can significantly accelerate diabetic wound healing process, and also improve diabetic tissue repair capacity. This study may be helpful for providing more scientific and reasonable experimental evidence for the treatment of pulsed electromagnetic fields on diabetic wound healing in clinics.

    Abstract:
    Cervical laminoplasty surgery is an alternative to laminectomy. It can increase the space of the spinal cord available by raising the lamina, and achieve the indirect decompression effect to treat cervical spondylosis. Various techniques of laminoplasty have since been developed after two prototype techniques: Hirabayashi’s open-door laminoplasty and Kurokawa’s double-door laminoplasty. Several studies report superior biomechanical stability of the cervical spine after laminoplasty compared with laminectomy. Recent development in laminoplasty is preservation of muscle attachment, which enabled dynamic and static stabilization of the cervical spine by neck extensor muscles. After treatment with new laminoplasty techniques with active postoperative neck muscle exercises, postoperative instability, kyphosis, axial neck pain, and loss of ROM become minimal. The development,complications and future trends of cervical laminoplasty are summarized below.

The levels of neurotransmitter effect[including 5-serotonin (5-HT) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)], stress response[oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and paraoxonase-1 (PON-1)], vascular function[including nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1)] and neurological function[including high brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)] related indexes were observed and compared between the two groups. Results: The two groups showed significant changes in transmitter effect, stress response, blood vessel and nerve function. Before treatment, there was no significant difference in the levels between the two groups. After treatment, the levels of TNF-a, ox-LDL, NO, ET-1, BDNF and CGRP in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, while the levels of 5-HT and PON-1 were significantly higher than those before treatment. And after treatment, the levels of TNF-a, ox- LDL, NO, ET-1, BDNF and CGRP in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group, while the levels of 5-HT and PON-1 were significantly higher than those in the control group. Conclusions: Gastrodin treatment can regulate oxidative stress level and improve vascular and neurological function in migraine patients.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the correlation between the change in expression of the tumor associated macrophage (TAM) markers CD68 and CD206 and the clinicopathological parameters. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 28 PGI-DLBCL patients by immunohistochemical stainning. The surface expression of biomarkers CD68 and CD206 on TAMs in samples obtained at diagnosis was compared with that in specimens obtained at first relapse. Based on the change in expression levels of CD68 and CD206 from diagnosis to relapse, patients were categorized into three groups: “increased”, “stable” and “decreased”. Results: A significant difference was observed between the three groups with respect to CD68 and CD206 expressions (P=0.012) and there existed a consistency between the two (P=0.008). The three groups showed a negative correlation with age, sex, stage, B symptoms, diagnosis, ECOG performance status, and IPI scores, while a positive correlation was observed with the site of lesion of CD206 expression (P=0.032). The time to relapse (TTR) in the three groups of CD68 and CD206 was not significantly different (P=0.23, P=0.818). Conclusion: Our study suggests that increase in CD206 and decrease in CD68 expression at relapse indicates M1-TAM polarization into M2-TAM, which plays an important role in PGI-DLBCL relapse. Furthermore, M2-TAM polarization may be associated with the site of Primary gastric diffuse large B lymphoma.

    Abstract:
    Objective: The study is to investigate the regulation of Biochanin A on proliferation and migration of cervical cancer cells and its possible molecular mechanism. Methods: Hela cells were cultured in vitro and treated with different concentrations of Biochanin A. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of Biochanin A on the proliferation of cervical cancer cells, while the Scratch assay was used to detect the effect on cell migration. Besides, the expression of Bcl-2 /Bax mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Results: Biochanin A could inhibit the proliferation and migration of Hela cells in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. At 10,0,40,0,160 μmol/L of Biochanin A, the inhibition rate of Hela cells increased significantly after 24,8 h, significantly higher than that of the control group. The expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax increased, while the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 decreased in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion: Hummus A can inhibit the proliferation and migration of Hela cells in cervical cancer, and its mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of Bcl-2 and up-regulation of Bax.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To systematically evaluate the effects of sleep status on renal function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: To search the relevant literature related to the effects of sleep status on renal function of CKD patients on PubMed database, EMBase database, the Cochrane Library database, CNKI database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, VIP and Wanfang database from the initial to June 2018, all literature that met the criteria were included. According to the type of studies, the quality of the literature was evaluated by NOS scale in the cohort study and AHRQ scale in the cross-sectional study, and systematically evaluated the outcome indicators, the main outcome indicators were estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and endogenous creatinine clearance rate (Ccr), while the secondary indicators were Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Sleep Quality (SQ), Serum Creatinine (Scr), Hemoglobin (Hb), Albumin (ALB) and Urine Protein/Creatinine Ratio (UPCR). Results: Four literature and one meeting abstract were included in this study, of which four were cohort studies, three of them the NOS quality evaluations were high, one of them was medium, the remaining one was cross-sectional study, and the AHRQ quality evaluation was medium. This study shows that sleep status has a certain correlation with renal function. Shorter sleep time or poor sleep quality can lead to deterioration of renal function. Among them, the research data of Sabbatinit research team in Italy showed that Ccr gradually decreased with the increased of the PSQI; studies of Cohen research team and the Ricardo research team in the United States showed that eGFR decreased with the increased of the PSQI; the study of Kumar research team in the United States showed that the lower SQ , the worse renal function; the study of Knutson’ research team in British showed that the shorter sleep time, the lower eGFR. In addition, studies showed that sleep index also has influence on Hb, ALB, Scr, UPCR and other indicators. Conclusion: Sleep status can affect the renal function of CKD patients in different degrees. Shorter sleep time and poor sleep quality will damage renal function and accelerate the progress of CKD.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the effects of ivabradine on Notch and NF-kappa B signaling pathway in myocardial cells of rats with myocardial infarction. Methods: The model of myocardial infarction was established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. The surviving rats were randomly divided into model group (MI group, n=8) and treatment group (IVA group, n=8). Rats with the same location but without ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery were used as control group (CON group, n=8). IVA was administered for 28 d. Hemodynamic and cardiac function indexes of all rats were measured:heart rate (HR), systolic pressure (SBP), diastolic pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and maximum rate of increase and decrease of left ventricular internal pressure (+dp/dt); left ventricular mass index, left ventricular cross-sectional diameter and infarct area; The expression of Notch signaling pathway components (Notch-1, Dll-4, Hes-1) in rat cardiomyocytes was detected by PT-PCR, and the expression of DICD-1 and P65 protein was detected by western-blot. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between groups, and SNK was used for comparison between groups. Results: SBP, DBP, MAP, LASP, LVEDP and (+dp/dt) in MI group were lower than those in control group (P<0.05), while IVA was higher than those in MI group (P<0.05). Left ventricular mass index and left ventricular sectional diameter in MI group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05), but lower than those in IVA group (P<0.05). The expression of Notch-1 in MI group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05), but lower than that in IVA group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of Dll-4 and Hes-1 between the three groups (P>0.05). The expression levels of NICD-1 and P 65 in MI group were significantly higher than those in CON group (P<0.05), but lower than those in IVA group (P<0.05). Conclusion: IVA may improve cardiac function and inhibit ventricular remodeling in rats with myocardial infarction through Notch and NF-kappa B signaling pathways.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To explore the effect of dopamine neurotransmitter expression on sleep disorders in neurological inpatients. Methods: 34 patients with sleep disorders and 30 volunteers from February 2018 to November 2018 in neurology department of our hospital were selected as the study subjects. They were the observation group and the control group. 64 participants stopped taking stimulating drinks such as coffee and alcohol two weeks ago. The sleep quality and depression were measured by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD). Degree of depression was examined by brain MRI. Two days later, 11C-Raclopril labeled brain dopamine neurotransmitter binding to receptors was scanned by PET/CT. SPSS was used to analyze the correlation between dopamine neurotransmitters and sleep disorders. Results: The HAMD and PSQI scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). On PET/CT scans, 11C-Raclopride was mostly located in nucleus dorsal caudate putamen, caudate nucleus and putamen. The dopamine binding ability of nucleus dorsal caudate putamen, caudate nucleus and putamen in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P< 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the course of disease in the observation group was negatively correlated with nucleus dorsal caudate putamen, caudate nucleus and putamen (r=-0.754,-0.717,-0.728;P< 0.05), while the scores of HAMD and PSQI were not correlated with nucleus dorsal caudate putamen, caudate nucleus and putamen (P> 0.05). Conclusion: The decrease of dopamine receptor binding in patients with sleep disorders is related to the course of sleep disorders, suggesting that the decrease of dopamine expression and sleep disorders have clinical significance.
