Metabolic alterations in the visual pathway of retinitis pigmentosa rats: A longitudinal multimodal magnetic resonance imaging study with histopathological validation

Because retinitis pigmentosa (RP) has been shown to cause degenerative changes in the entire visual pathway, there is an urgent need to perform longitudinal assessments of RP-induced degeneration and identify imaging protocols to detect this degeneration as early as possible. In this study, we assessed a transgenic rat model of RP by using complementary noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging techniques, namely, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H-MRS), to investigate the metabolic changes in RP. Our study demonstrated decreased concentrations and ratios to creatine (Cr) of N-acetylaspartate (NAA), glutamate (Glu), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and taurine (Tau), whereas myo-inositol (Ins) and choline (Cho) were increased in the visual cortex of Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rats compared with control rats (p < 0.05). Furthermore, with the progression of RP, the concentrations of NAA, Glu, GABA, and Tau, and the ratios of GABA/Cr and Tau/Cr significantly decreased over time, whereas the concentrations of Ins and Cho and the ratio of Ins/Cr significantly increased over time (p < 0.05). In addition, in RCS rats, NAA/Cr decreased significantly from 3 to 4 months postnatal (p < 0.001), and Cho/Cr increased significantly from 4 to 5 months postnatal (p = 0.005). Meanwhile, the ¹H-MRS indicators in 5-month postnatal RCS rats could be confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. In conclusion, with the progression of RP, the metabolic alterations in the visual cortex indicated progressive reprogramming with the decrease of neurons and axons, accompanied by the proliferation of gliocytes.     

LINC00649通过miR-424-5p/IGF1R轴调控内质网应激介导的宫颈癌细胞凋亡

目的探讨LINC00649/miR-424-5p/IGF1R对内质网应激(ERs)介导的宫颈癌(CC)细胞凋亡的影响。方法从GEO数据库中获取CC相关的数据,并分析差异表达的miRNAs。利用生物信息学数据库预测miR-424-5p的上、下游靶点,将LINC00649和IGF1R纳入研究,随后双荧光素酶实验进一步验证靶向关系。qRT-PCR检测LINC00649、miR-424-5p和IGF1R在CC组织和细胞中的表达水平。CCK-8和流式细胞术分别评估CC细胞增殖和凋亡变化。Western blot检测ERs相关蛋白GRP78、CHOP和Caspase-12的表达。结果与癌旁组织和H8细胞相比,LINC00649和IGF1R在CC组织和细胞中表达上调,而miR-424-5p下调(均P<0.05)。LINC00649的异常高表达与CC患者的预后不良有关,敲减LINC00649可通过促进ERs来抑制CC细胞活力,诱导细胞凋亡(均P<0.05)。LINC00649吸附miR-424-5p上调IGF1R的表达。miR-424-5p抑制剂或过表达IGF1R均可部分逆转敲减LINC00649对CC细胞的影响(均P<0.05)。结论 LINC00649能够通过miR-424-5p/IGF1R抑制CC细胞的ERs过程进而减少细胞凋亡,提高细胞活力。

目的探讨全身麻醉诱导期正压通气至肌松起效时,肺顺应性及其变化率与肌松药起效时间的相关性。方法选择全麻下择期妇科腹腔镜手术患者35例,年龄18～50岁,体重45～80 kg,ASAⅠ或Ⅱ级,Mallampati 1—2级。麻醉诱导自主呼吸消失后行面罩压力控制通气,通气压力为15 cmH_2O,每12秒记录肺顺应性,以第一次正压通气的肺顺应性为基础值。同时给予顺式阿曲库铵,肌松监测仪定标开始监测,间隔12 s直至T4/T1=0即肌松药起效,记录肌松起效时间和此时肺顺应性数值,计算肺顺应性变化率。结果给予肌松药即刻肺顺应性为(23.1±2.5)ml/cmH_2O,当T4/T1=0时,肺顺应性为(44.6±8.7)ml/cmH_2O。平均肌松起效时间为(87.1±7.3)s,肺顺应性变化率与肌松药起效时间呈负相关(r=-0.68,P=0.013)。结论全麻诱导时肺顺应性变化率与肌松药起效时间负相关,观察肺顺应性的变化有助于更准确地判断气管插管时机。     

PICC延续性照护服务现状及制约因素分析

目的从患者和社区医疗机构层面了解PICC延续性照护服务现状并分析制约因素,为PICC维护技术在社区医疗机构的推广提供参考。方法对在株洲市3所三级医院进行PICC置管维护的196例患者采用自行设计的问卷进行调查,对10家社区医疗机构负责人进行半结构式深入访谈。结果 88.8%的PICC带管者平时的维护地点为三级医院,31.1%的患者愿意到社区医院进行导管维护,61.2%的患者因社区诊疗技术不足而不到社区医疗机构进行导管维护。访谈共提取6个主题:人力资源不足,相关知识及技术缺乏,担心风险,收费标准缺乏文件依据,缺乏国家政策支持,建议提高医疗风险的保额。结论社区医院PICC维护情况不容乐观,推进PICC维护进社区存在较多的制约因素,政府、三级医院及社区医疗机构应积极采取对策加以改进,以发挥社区医疗机构初级医疗保健作用。

Kellerin alleviates cognitive impairment in mice after ischemic stroke by multiple mechanisms

Ischemic stroke is a global disease with high disability and mortality rates. Cognitive impairment is one of the major clinical features of ischemic stroke, and microglia‐mediated inflammation has been shown to be an important contributor to the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Kellerin, extracted from Ferula sinkiangensis, was previously shown to inhibit microglial activation and exert a strong anti‐neuroinflammatory effect. However, there is no report of the potential therapeutic effect of kellerin on ischemic stroke by targeting microglial cells. In this study, we wanted to examine the effects of kellerin on ischemic stroke in the bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) model and the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐activated microglia model. We found that kellerin alleviated cognitive impairment, decreased neuronal loss, suppressed microglial activation, and transformed microglia from the pro‐inflammatory M1 phenotype to the anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotype in BCCAO mice. Moreover, in in vitro studies, we found that kellerin regulated microglial polarization and inhibited the NLRP3 and MAPK signaling pathways after LPS treatment. These findings provide a new understanding of the function of kellerin in ischemic stroke, and suggest that kellerin could be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of ischemic stroke.
