Effect of Chronic Administration of PDE5 Combined with Glycemic Control on Erectile Function in Streptozotocin‐Induced Diabetic Rats

IntroductionChronic treatment with phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5) is effective in an animal model of diabetes‐induced erectile dysfunction (DMED). In addition, recent research indicates that glycemic control can restore DMED.AimsWe evaluated the effect of chronic administration of PDE5 combined with glycemic control on DMED.MethodsSprague‐Dawley rats (8 weeks old) were divided into five groups (n = 10 each): normal control (C), diabetes (DM), DM treated with insulin (DM‐I), DM treated with PDE5 (DM‐P), and DM treated with insulin and PDE5 (DM‐I + P). Rats in the diabetic groups received an injection of streptozotocin (45 mg/kg). After 10 weeks of induced diabetes, the DM‐I group was treated with a daily injection of neutral protamine Hagedorn, and the DM‐P group was treated with a daily dosage of 20 mg/kg PDE5 (DA‐8159) for 4 weeks. The DM‐I + P group was treated with both treatments simultaneously. After 14 weeks of induced diabetes, an evaluation of erectile function and histological and biochemical markers of corporal tissue was performed.Main Outcome MeasuresErectile function and histological and biochemical markers in corporal tissue.ResultsRats in the DM group showed markedly lower erectile parameters than those in the C group, whereas rats in the DM‐I and DM‐P groups showed intermediate erectile function between the DM and C groups. Rats in the DM‐I + P group showed restored erectile function, comparable with group C. A comparison of apoptotic index, expression of the endothelial marker, and phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase and Akt displayed a similar pattern with the results from cavernosometry (DM < DM‐I = DM‐P < DM‐I + P = C, P < 0.05). The distribution of phosphorylated myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 was in the reverse order.ConclusionsChronic administration of PDE5 or glycemic control with insulin resulted in restoration of overt DMED. The combination of both treatments was superior to monotherapy with insulin or PDE5. Choi WS, Kwon OS, Cho SY, Paick J‐S, and Kim SW.

Global exponential stability of generalized recurrent neural networks with discrete and distributed delays.

This paper is concerned with analysis problem for the global exponential stability of a class of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with mixed discrete and distributed delays. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point under mild conditions, assuming neither differentiability nor strict monotonicity for the activation function. Then, by employing a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach is developed to establish sufficient conditions for the RNNs to be globally exponentially stable. Therefore, the global exponential stability of the delayed RNNs can be easily checked by utilizing the numerically efficient Matlab LMI toolbox, and no tuning of parameters is required. A simulation example is exploited to show the usefulness of the derived LMI-based stability conditions.

Prevalence and genetic analysis of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and type 3 (PCV3) between 2018 and 2020 in central China

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the causative agent of porcine circovirus-associated diseases (PCVAD), causing substantial economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. PCV3, as a recently discovered virus, is associated with porcine dermatitis, nephropathy syndrome, reproductive failure, congenital tremors, and other clinical symptoms. To further investigate the epidemic profile and genetic diversity of the two viruses, a total of 198 samples from swine at various growth stages suspected for PCVAD on 55 different pig farms between 2018 and 2020 were analyzed for presence of PCV2 and PCV3 by using a multiplex real-time PCR assay. Among the 198 samples, 113 (57.07%) and 72 (36.36%) were positive for PCV2 and PCV3 respectively, and 39 (19.7%) were positive for PCV2 and PCV3 co-infection. Subsequently, whole genome sequences of 34 PCV2 and 19 PCV3 strains were obtained from 30 and 19 clinical samples, respectively. Of these, 8 PCV2 strains belonged to PCV2a, 10 belonged to PCV2b and 16 belonged to PCV2d, indicating PCV2d was the predominant PCV2 genotype circulating in central China. Furthermore, co-infection of different PCV2 genotype strains was identified in three samples (JZ-4, KF-2 and JY-1), and a cross-recombination was found in the ORF2 region of the sequenced 13 PCV2d strains whose putative parental strains were LN6/1999 (MF278777) and MEX/41238/2014 (KT795287) strains. The phylogenetic analysis of PCV3 showed high nucleotide identity (>98%) among sequences obtained in this study and reference sequences. These data will aid our understanding of the molecular epidemiology and evolution of PCV2 and PCV3.     

运动训练对慢性应激大鼠β—内啡肽分泌的影响

目的：探讨运动训练对慢性应激大鼠β－内啡肽（β－EP）分泌的变化。方法：对大鼠进行为期8周的不同负荷运动训练,并在运动训练后期给予3周的冷刺激,测定大鼠下丘脑和血清中β－EP的含量。结果：（1）经过3周的冷应激后,大鼠产生显著的身心变化,下丘脑和血清β－EP的含量均显著升高,从而表明冷应激可使机体β－ED的合成和释放增多。（2）经过8周的运动训练后,大鼠下丘脑β－EP含量显著升高,血清β－EP含量显著下降;而对运动训练的大鼠施加冷刺激后,大鼠下丘脑和血清中β－EP含量显著低于应激组,以中等负荷运动训练组最为明显。结论：运动训练可以减少内源性β－EP的释放,有效对抗大鼠机体对冷刺激产生的应激反应,维持机体在应激状态下内分泌功能的稳定。

目的：评估特发性视神经炎(ON)患者的患眼和未受累对侧眼的视盘及黄斑的血流密度改变情况,为特发性ON的治疗和随访提供一定的临床指导。

方法：横断面研究。收集2019-12/2021-12于扬州大学附属苏北人民医院眼科确诊的初次发病且病程≤3 mo的单眼特发性ON患者16例,分为患眼组16眼与未受累对侧眼组16眼,另收集性别、年龄相匹配的健康者20例20眼作为对照组。所有眼均行视盘区4.5 mm×4.5 mm及黄斑区6 mm×6 mm光相干断层扫描血管成像(OCTA)检查,收集视盘区及黄斑区各血流指标,并对三组间各指标进行对比及分析。

结果：与对照组及未受累对侧眼组相比,ON患眼组视盘全区域及视盘周围各分区毛细血管、全部血管血流密度均降低(P<0.05)。与未受累对侧眼组相比,ON患眼黄斑区整体及中心凹周围全部分区SCP血流密度均显著降低(P<0.05),旁中心凹SCP血流密度仅在上半侧及上侧分区显著降低(P<0.05)。与对照组相比,ON患眼组黄斑中心凹周围下半侧、鼻侧、下侧SCP密度降低(均P<0.05)。与对照组相比,未受累对侧眼组黄斑区整体及各分区SCP血流密度均增加(P<0.05),旁中心凹SCP血流密度增加(P<0.05),但下半侧、鼻侧分区改变无统计学差异(P>0.05),中心凹周围SCP血流密度增加仅在上半侧及上侧分区有统计学意义(P<0.05)。

结论：病程3 mo以内的ON患者会出现视盘周围各分区血管密度的降低和黄斑中心凹周围部分分区SCP血流密度的降低,同时伴随着对侧眼黄斑区部分分区的SCP血流密度的增加。
