To investigate the inhibitory effects of dihydromyricetin on the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer BGC-823 cells and explore the molecular mechanisms.

BGC-823 cells in routine culture were treated with different concentrations of dihydromyricetin (0, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 μg/mL) for 24 h, and the changes in cell viability were detected using CCK-8 assay; colony forming assay and Transwell assay were performed to assess the changes in colonyforming and migration abilities of the cells, respectively. ML792 The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the treated cells were determined using ELISA, and Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, cyclin D1, cyclin E1, HSP70 and HMGB1 and the phosphorylation levels of Akt and Stat3.

CCK-8 assay showed that dihydromyricetin treatment dose-dependently inhibited the viability of BGC-823 cells (
< 0.05). Treatment with dihydromyricetin obviously suppressed the proliferation and migration of BGC-823 cells, significantly reduced the expression levels of cyclin D1, cyclin E1 and Ncadherin, enhanced E-cadherin expression, inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt and stat3, and downregulated HMGB1 expression in the cells. The results of ELISA demonstrated significantly lowered levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dihydromyricetin-treated cells.

Dihydromyricetin inhibits the proliferation and migration of BGC-823 cells through suppressing the activation of Akt/stat3 signaling pathways and HMGB1 expression.

To investigate the role of NOV/CCN3 in regulating the proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and its regulatory mechanism and assess the value of CCN3 as a proliferative factor in bone tissue engineering.

Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) were used as the MSC model, in which CCN3 expression was up-regulated and downregulated by transfection with the recombinant adenovirus vectors Ad-CCN3 and Ad-siCCN3, respectively. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the changes in cell cycle and apoptosis of the transfected cells. Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of the proliferation indicators (PCNA, cyclin E, and cyclin B1) and the apoptosis indicators (Bax and Bcl-2) to assess the effect of modulation of CCN3 expression on MEF proliferation and apoptosis. CCN3 protein secretion by the cells was detected using ELISA. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were employed to analyze the changes in the expressions of Notch1, ligand DLL1, the downstream key proteins or genes (Hey1, P300, H3K9) and MA the proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of MEFs possibly by inhibiting the classical Notch signaling pathway and activating the MAPK pathway via binding to Notch1, suggesting the potential value of CCN3 as a proliferative factor of MSCs in bone tissue engineering.
To explore the association between rare HSPB1 variants and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

We performed next-generation sequencing for 166 Chinese ALS patients to screen for possible pathogenic rare variants of HSPB1. The control individuals were obtained from 1000 Genome Project and an in-house whole-exome sequencing database. The Sequence Kernel Association Test (SKAT) and the SKAT-optimal test (SKAT-O) were used to identify the association between rare HSPB1 variants and ALS.

We identified 3 possible pathogenic rare variants of HSPB1 (all were missenses), including c.379C>T (p.R127W), c.446A>C (p.D149A) and c.451A>C (p.T151P). Compared with 1000 Genome Project, SKAT p=3.61×10
and SKAT-O p=1.62×10
; while compared with the in-house database, SKAT p=9.99×10
, SKAT-O p= 1.80×10
. We analyzed the phenotypes of rare HSPB1 variant carriers and found no specific clinical characteristics associated with these variants.

Rare variants of HSPB1 are probably associated with the pathogenesis of ALS.

To establish a mouse model bearing orthotopic temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant glioma that mimics the development of drug resistance in gliomas
.

Seventy-eight adult C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups (
=13), including 3 TMZ induced groups with low, medium and high doses (5, 25, and 50 mg/kg, respectively) and 3 control groups. In each group, 5 mice were used for evaluating tumor size, 5 for observing survival, and 3 for collecting tumor tissues for primary cell culture. In low-dose TMZ induced group, 3 mice bearing orthotopic murine glioma GL261 cell xenografts received intraperitoneal injections of 5 mg/kg TMZ for 5 days followed by a 10-day washout period before collecting glioma tissues. Tumor cell suspensions were prepared and injected in the mice in the medium-dose group, which were treated with the same protocol but with an increased TMZ dose, and the tumor cells harvested from 3 mice were injected in the high-dose group. The mice bearing GL261 cell xenografts in the 3 control groups rectively induce TMZ resistance of the gliomas.
To investigate the maximum dose of continuous mivacurium infusion for intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) and observe the adverse reactions during thyroid surgery under total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA).

Thirty patients undergoing IONM during thyroid surgery received continuous infusion of mivacurium at the initial rate of 14.97 μg · kg
· min
. The infusion rate was adjusted in the next patient based on the response of the previous patient in IONM. The depth of anesthesia was maintained with propofol and remifentanil during the surgery. The EC
and 95%
of mivacurium were calculated with Brownlee's up- and-down sequential method. During the operation, body movement and skin flushing of patient was monitored, and the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HP) were recorded immediately (T
) and at 5 min (T
) after injection of muscle relaxant for anesthesia induction, immediately (T
) and at 10 min (T
) and 20 min (T
) after initiation of intraoperative infusion of the muscle relaxant.

The EC
for continuous infusion of mivacurium without affecting IONM was 18.
