TRIM59 通过结合 BCLAF1 调控人皮肤黑色素瘤 SK-MEL-2 细胞的恶 性生物学行为

目的：探究三结构域蛋白59（TRIM59）调控人皮肤黑色素瘤细胞SK-MEL-2增殖、细胞周期、凋亡及迁移侵袭的作用机制，及其与Bcl2相关转录因子1（BCLAF1)之间的关系。方法：qPCR和WB法检测人表皮黑色素细胞HEMn-LP、人皮肤黑色素瘤细胞SK-MEL-2、UACC903、A375及36例邢台市人民医院2019年2月至2021年7月收集的皮肤黑色素瘤组织中TRIM59的mRNA和蛋白表达，使用脂质体将si-con、si-TRIM59转染至SK-MEL-2细胞中，WB法检测干扰TRIM59表达对细胞中周期蛋白D1（CCND1）、细胞周期素依赖性激酶2（CDK2）、肿瘤抑制蛋白基因（TP53）和 BCLAF1 蛋白表达的影响，CCK-8法、流式细胞术、划痕愈合实验、Transwell实验检测对细胞的活性、凋亡、迁移和侵袭的影响，免疫共沉淀（Co-IP）实验检测对细胞中TRIM59蛋白与BCLAF1结合能力的影响。结果：与HEMn-LP细胞相比，SK-MEL-2、UACC903、A375细胞中TRIM59 mRNA和TRIM59、BCLAF1蛋白均呈高表达（均P<0.05），SK-MEL-2细胞中TRIM59表达水平最高。相较于si-con组和Normal组，沉默TRIM59后，SK-MEL-2细胞的活性显著降低，细胞周期阻滞于G2期，CCND1、CDK2的蛋白表达显著降低，TP53蛋白和细胞凋亡率均显著升高，划痕抑制率明显升高，迁移侵袭细胞数明显降低（均P<0.05）。免疫共沉淀实验结果显示，TRIM59与BCLAF1之间存在蛋白结合关系。TRIM59与 BCLAF1 在肿瘤组织中的表达呈显著的正相关（r=0.878，P<0.001）。结论：干扰TRIM59表达能够抑制人皮肤黑色素瘤SK-MEL-2细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭而促进凋亡，抑制SK-MEL-2细胞的恶性生物学行为，其机制可能与TRIM59结合BCLAF1有关。

Maternal exposure to ambient PM2.5 and term low birthweight in the State of Georgia

A growing body of evidence suggests that ambient air pollution could be associated with low birthweight (LBW). In this study, we examined pregnancy exposure to ambient PM_2.5 and the risk of LBW in the State of Georgia. The study population consisted of 48,172 full-term live births between 1 January 2004 and 31 December 2004 in nine counties of Georgia, which was obtained from the national natality dataset. County-level air quality index data obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was used to estimate exposure to ambient levels of PM_2.5. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that infants with maternal exposure to PM_2.5 falling within 75 to < 95th percentiles were at increased risk of LBW (OR: 1.36; 95 % CI: 1.03, 1.79), after adjusting for potential confounders. This study provided more evidence on the role of PM_2.5 in LBW. Reducing exposure for pregnant women would be necessary to improve the health of infants.     

Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide Attenuates Brain Edema by Protecting Blood–Brain Barrier and Glymphatic System After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Rats

Brain edema is a vital contributor to early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which is responsible for prolonged hospitalization and poor outcomes. Pharmacological therapeutic targets on edema formation have been the focus of research for decades. Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) has been shown to participate in neural development and brain injury. Here, we used PACAP knockout CRISPR to demonstrate that endogenous PACAP plays an endogenous neuroprotective role against brain edema formation after SAH in rats. The exogenous PACAP treatment provided both short- and long-term neurological benefits by preserving the function of the blood–brain barrier and glymphatic system after SAH. Pretreatment of inhibitors of PACAP receptors showed that the PACAP-involved anti-edema effect and neuroprotection after SAH was facilitated by the selective PACAP receptor (PAC1). Further administration of adenylyl cyclase (AC) inhibitor and sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) CRISPR activator suggested that the AC–cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)–protein kinase A (PKA) axis participated in PACAP signaling after SAH, which inhibited the expression of edema-related proteins, SUR1 and aquaporin-4 (AQP4), through SUR1 phosphorylation. Thus, PACAP may serve as a potential clinical treatment to alleviate brain edema in patients with SAH.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s13311-020-00925-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.Key Words: Subarachnoid hemorrhage, brain edema, pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide, blood–brain barrier, glymphatic system

近端血流阻断加压技术在硬脊膜动静脉畸形血管内治疗中的应用

目的探讨近端血流阻断加压技术在硬脊膜动静脉畸形(SDAVF)血管内治疗中应用的安全性和有效性。方法回顾性分析2017年2月至2018年9月海军军医大学附属长海医院神经外科采用血管内治疗的6例SDAVF患者的临床资料。所有患者术中均应用近端血流阻断加压技术,其中1例因未能完全栓塞,改为显微外科手术治疗。术后即刻行数字减影血管造影(DSA),以判断栓塞情况。对所有患者行门诊或电话随访,随访内容为行Aminoff-Logue评分,判断脊髓功能的恢复情况;门诊随访的患者同时复查脊髓MRI,以判断栓塞情况。结果6例患者的手术均成功。术后即刻DSA显示,5例完全栓塞,1例瘘口残留。所有患者术后均未出现永久性神经系统并发症;其中1例术中造影显示肋间动脉夹层的患者,采用弹簧圈闭塞近端肋间动脉后复查胸椎CT,显示肋间肌内血肿形成,术后持续胸背部疼痛3 d后缓解。6例患者中,5例为门诊随访,1例为电话随访;中位随访时间(范围)为5.5个月(4.0~22.0个月)。术后3个月,6例患者的Aminoff-Logue评分均较术前降低[(2.0±0.7)分、(4.0±1.5)分,P<0.05];脊髓功能得到明显改善。术中因拔管困难而留置体内的1例患者,术后6个月随访时无相关并发症。经显微手术治疗的1例患者出院后10个月行DSA随访,未见瘘口显影。结论初步推测近端血流阻断加压技术在SDAVF血管内治疗中是安全、有效的。

Research Progress of Moyamoya Disease in Children

During the onset of Moyamoya disease (MMD), progressive occlusion occurs at the end of the intracranial internal carotid artery, and compensatory net-like abnormal vessels develop in the skull base, generating the corresponding clinical symptoms. MMD can affect both children and adults, but MMD in pediatric patients exhibits distinct clinical features, and the treatment prognoses are different from adult patients. Children are the group at highest risk for MMD. In children, the disease mainly manifests as ischemia, while bleeding is the primary symptom in adults. The pathogenesis of MMD in children is still unknown, and some factors are distinct from those in adults. MMD in children could result in progressive, irreversible nerve functional impairment, and an earlier the onset corresponds to a worse prognosis. Therefore, active treatment at an early stage is highly recommended. The treatment methods for MMD in children mainly include indirect and direct surgeries. Indirect surgeries mainly include multiple burr-hole surgery (MBHS), encephalomyosynangiosis (EMS), and encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS); direct surgeries mainly include intra- and extracranial vascular reconstructions that primarily consist of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis. Indirect surgery, as a treatment for MMD in children, has shown a certain level of efficacy. However, a standard treatment approach should combine both indirect and direct procedures. Compared to MMD in adults, the treatment and prognosis of MMD in children has higher clinical significance. If the treatment is adequate, a satisfactory outcome is often achieved.
