2-Dodecyl-6-methoxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione,isolated from the root of Averrhoa carambola L., protects against diabetic kidney disease by inhibiting TLR4/TGFβ signaling pathway

ObjectiveDiabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of death and disability of diabetes mellitus. However, there is still a lack of specific drugs for the treatment of DKD. The chief aim of this research is to investigate the role and mechanism of 2-Dodecyl-6-methoxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (DMDD) for DKD.MethodsWild type and TLR4 knockout mice were induced to diabetes. After 4-week treatment with DMDD, blood sugar, renal function, blood lipid and pathological changes were assessed. Real-time PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were employed to detect the expressions of TLR4, TGFβ1 and Smad2/3 in the renal tissue.ResultsDMDD improved the serum lipid and decreased fasting blood glucose levels in diabetic mice. CysC and urinary albumin levels increased markedly in the diabetic group, and they were obviously decreased after 4 weeks of DMDD treatment. Compared with the WT diabetic mice, the urinary albumin and CysC in the TLR4^-/- mice were expressed at lower levels. HE and Masson’s staining revealed that DMDD clearly ameliorated pathological changes and renal fibrosis. When TLR4 gene was knock out, the pathological was improved. Mechanistically, TLR4, TGF-β1 and Smad2/3 were obvious up-regulation in the renal tissues of diabetic mice. The expressions of these proteins were significantly down-regulated after DMDD treatment (p < 0.05). In the TLR4^-/- mice, mRNA and protein levels of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3 were obviously lower than those in the WT mice. In addition, IHC revealed that a strong in situ expressions of TLR4, TGF-β1 and Smad2/3 were seen in the kidney tissues of diabetic mice, which were distinctly weakened in the DMDD-treated mice. In the TLR4^-/- mice, however, expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3 were not remarkable increase in the diabetic mice compared with normal mice.ConclusionsThese results strongly indicate that TLR4 is essential for DMDD protection against renal dysfunction in diabetic mice. Its hypoglycemic and anti-fibrosis effects were likely mediated by the TLR4/TGFβ signaling pathway.     

针刀松解寰枕筋膜治疗颈源性眩晕的疗效研究

目的:研究针刀松解寰枕筋膜治疗颈源性眩晕的疗效。方法:选取2017年1月至2018年1月佛山市健翔医院收治的颈源性眩晕患者96例作为研究对象,按照随机数字表法随机分为对照组和观察组,每组48例。对照组患者给予3次/周针灸、局部按摩治疗,观察组患者给予1次/周的针刀松解寰枕筋膜治疗,均治疗3周。依照《颈性眩晕评估量表(ESCV)》分析2组患者治疗前后颈性眩晕评分变化、椎动脉血流动力学变化,比较2组患者血清中内皮源性超极化因子(EDHF)的含量和一氧化氮(NO)水平,统计2组患者的治疗有效率、眩晕症状缓解时间及生命质量变化。结果:观察组患者治疗后总有效率为97.92%高于对照组的81.25%(P<0.05),眩晕有效缓解时间明显缩短,眩晕评分显著高于对照组(P<0.05);观察组患者治疗后椎动脉的平均血流、收缩期血流、舒张期血流速度、血清中NO及EDHF水平明显上升,血管搏动指数显著下降(P<0.05);生命质量评分显著升高(P<0.05)。结论:针刀松解寰枕筋膜能够通过改善颈源性眩晕患者的椎动脉血流动力学,有效治疗患者的颈源性眩晕。

B cell and B cell-related pathways for novel cancer treatments

B cells are recognized as the main effector cells of humoral immunity which suppress tumor progression by secreting immunoglobulins, promoting T cell response, and killing cancer cells directly. Given these properties, their anti-tumor immune response in the tumor micro-environment (TME) is of great interest. Although T cell-related immune responses have become a therapeutic target with the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors, not all patients benefit from these treatments. B cell and B cell-related pathways (CCL19, −21/CCR7 axis and CXCL13/CXCR5 axis) play key roles in activating immune response through humoral immunity and local immune activation via tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS) formation. However they have some protumorigenic works in the TME. Thus, a better understanding of B cell and B cell-related pathways is necessary to develop effective cancer control. In this review, we summarize recent evidences regarding the roles of B cell and B cell-related pathways in the TME and immune response and discuss their potential roles for novel cancer treatment strategies.
