杜仲及其有效成分治疗膝骨关节炎的作用机制研究现状

膝骨关节炎（KOA）是中老年常见的退行性关节疾病,发病率随着人口老龄化程度加深及肥胖人群增加而不断增加,严重影响患者健康及日常生活。目前采用的非甾体类抗炎药、软骨保护类药物、阿片类镇痛药等对症治疗手段作用有限,且药物不良反应明显。杜仲是治疗KOA常用且有效的中药之一,但其作用机制和药效物质基础尚未明确,限制了其在临床更为广泛的运用。杜仲在KOA治疗领域的有效成分主要为环烯醚萜类（京尼平苷、杜仲苷/桃叶珊瑚苷）、木脂素类（松脂醇二葡萄糖苷）、黄酮类（槲皮素、紫云英苷、黄芩素、金丝桃苷、山柰酚）、苯丙素类（绿原酸）、杜仲多糖等化合物,他们主要通过丝裂原活化蛋白激酶、核转录因子-κB、磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶/蛋白激酶B及等Janus激酶1/信号转导和转录激活因子3等信号通路,来调节炎性因子水平、抗氧化应激反应、保护软骨细胞、平衡细胞外基质合成与降解等,控制KOA病情进展。该文对杜仲及其有效成分在KOA治疗方面的作用机制进行了综述,以期为KOA新药研发提供理论依据。     

Anticancer Mechanism of Curcumin on Human Glioblastoma

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor and accounts for most adult brain tumors. Current available treatment options for GBM are multimodal, which include surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy. Despite the significant advances in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, GBM remains largely resistant to treatment, with a poor median survival rate between 12 and 18 months. With increasing drug resistance, the introduction of phytochemicals into current GBM treatment has become a potential strategy to combat GBM. Phytochemicals possess multifarious bioactivities with multitarget sites and comparatively marginal toxicity. Among them, curcumin is the most studied compound described as a potential anticancer agent due to its multi-targeted signaling/molecular pathways properties. Curcumin possesses the ability to modulate the core pathways involved in GBM cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, autophagy, paraptosis, oxidative stress, and tumor cell motility. This review discusses curcumin’s anticancer mechanism through modulation of Rb, p53, MAPK, P13K/Akt, JAK/STAT, Shh, and NF-κB pathways, which are commonly involved and dysregulated in preclinical and clinical GBM models. In addition, limitation issues such as bioavailability, pharmacokinetics perspectives strategies, and clinical trials were discussed.     

SARS-CoV、MERS-CoV、SARS-CoV-2的基因结构特点与致病机制

高致病性冠状病毒具有高发病率、高病死率以及全球大流行等特点,严重威胁人类健康,给社会经济带来巨大挑战。目前关于高致病冠状病毒的致病机制,主要从直接细胞病变效应和间接免疫病理损伤两方面进行讨论,但具体作用基因的研究尚需进一步深入。本文从高致病性冠状病毒的基因结构特点与致病机制的相关性进行综述,为预防和治疗高致病性冠状病毒感染提供参考。     

城市社区在公共卫生管理中的干预机制构建

草酸钙的形成机理及影响因素

目的 :探讨草酸钙结石的形成机理和影响因素。方法 :根据微溶电解质动力学原理 ,利用草酸与氯化钙作用形成草酸钙的性质 ,加入其它尿液中常见组分 ,测定草酸钙诱导期与过饱和溶液浓度的关系 ,并分析结石的显微结构。结果 :草酸钙的诱导期与溶液过饱和浓度呈反比关系 ,且不同干扰因素对草酸钙的过饱和比影响也不同。结论 :钙和草酸是草酸钙形成的必要条件 ;溶液的过饱和是草酸钙成核的基础 ;基质对草酸钙起胶结作用 ;氯化钠、氯化铵、氯化镁能促进草酸钙的形成 ,而氯化铁、尿素、甘氨酸能抑制草酸钙的沉淀。

Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty in Young Patients: Higher Early Reoperation and Rerevision

BackgroundRevision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA) rates are increasing in younger patients. Few studies have assessed outcomes of initial aseptic rTKA performed for younger patients compared with traditional-aged patients.MethodsA detailed medical record review was performed to identify patient demographics, medical comorbidities, surgical rTKA indications, timing from index TKA to rTKA, subsequent reoperation rates, component rerevision rates, and salvage procedures for 147 young patients (158 knees) aged 55 years and younger and for a traditional older cohort of 276 patients (300 knees) between 60 and 75 years. Univariate analysis was performed to assess differences in these primary variables, and a log-rank test was used to estimate 5-year implant survival based on either reoperation or component revision and salvage procedures.ResultsYounger TKA patients were more likely to undergo initial aseptic rTKA within 2 years of their primary TKA (52.5% vs 29.0%, P < .001) and were more likely to undergo early reoperation (17.7% vs 9.7%, P = .02) or component rerevision (11.4% vs 6.0%, P < .05) after rTKA. Infection and extensor mechanism complications were more commonly noted in younger patients. Estimated 5-year survival was also lower for both reoperation (59.4% vs 65.7%, P = .02) and component rerevision or salvage (65.8% vs 80.1%, P = .02).ConclusionEarly reoperation and component re-rTKA were performed nearly twice as often in younger rTKA than traditional-aged TKA patients. Care should be given to reduce perioperative infection and extensor mechanism failures after rTKA in younger patients.
