MiR-3571 modulates traumatic brain injury by regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway via Fbxo31.

To investigate the effect of miR-3571 on traumatic brain injury (TBI) via the regulation of neuronal apoptosis through F-box-only protein 31/phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B (Fbxo31/PI3K/AKT). We established TBI rat and cell models. Hematoxylin‒eosin (HE) and Nissl staining were used to observe brain injury and the number of Nissl bodies, respectively.

Tanshinone IIA Alleviates Traumatic Brain Injury by Reducing Ischemia‒Reperfusion via the miR-124-5p/FoxO1 Axis.

Background: Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury is a common complication of ischemic stroke that affects the prognosis of patients with ischemic stroke. The lipid-soluble diterpene Tanshinone IIA, which was isolated from , has been indicated to reduce cerebral ischemic injury. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of Tanshinone IIA in alleviating reperfusion-induced brain injury.

Combination therapy with budesonide and acetylcysteine alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury via the miR-381/NLRP3 molecular axis.

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) usually has a high morbidity and mortality rate, but the current treatment is relatively scarce. Both budesonide (Bud) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) exhibit protective effects in ALI, so we further investigated whether they have a synergistic effect on ALI when used together.

Methods: Establishment of a rat model of ALI with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Mechanism of SET8 Activates the Nrf2-KEAP1-ARE Signaling Pathway to Promote the Recovery of Motor Function after Spinal Cord Injury.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a common injury of the central nervous system (CNS), and astrocytes are relatively abundant glial cells in the CNS that impairs the recovery of motor function after SCI. It was confirmed that the oxidative stress of mitochondria leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells, which plays a key role in the motor function of astrocytes. However, the mechanism by which oxidative stress affects astrocyte motility after SCI is still unexplained.

Combination therapy with budesonide and N-acetylcysteine ameliorates LPS-induced ALI by attenuating neutrophil recruitment through the miR-196b-5p/Socs3 molecular axis.

Background: Neutrophil infiltration accelerates the inflammatory response and is highly correlated to the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Budesonide (BUD) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) both inhibit the inflammatory response to alleviate ALI, so we further investigated whether their combination is better for ALI.

Methods: In this study, we investigated the effect and mechanism of Combined BUD and NAC therapy on LPS-induced ALI.

MicroRNA-31 inhibits traumatic brain injury-triggered neuronal cell apoptosis by regulating hypoxia-inducible factor-1A/vascular endothelial growth factor A axis.

MicroRNAs are dysregulated in traumatic brain injury and are involved in neuronal cell behaviors. Previous studies identified miR-31 as a spinal cord injury-related microRNA, while its role in traumatic brain injury remains indistinct. Herein, we explored the participation of miR-31 in traumatic brain injury.

Analysis of rehabilitation in stroke patients in a High Dependency Unit.

Objective: To analyze the rehabilitation effict of stroke patients in the High Dependency Unit (HDU).

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 96 ischemic stroke patients who met the inclusion criteria and were hospitalized in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of Qujing No. 1 Hospital by convenience sampling.

Quantum chemistry investigation on the reaction mechanism of the elemental mercury, chlorine, bromine and ozone system.

Ab initio calculations were performed to study the quantum chemistry reactions mechanisms among Hg(0), elemental halogen and O3. The geometry of reactions, transition states (TS), intermediates (M) and products were optimized using the MP2 method at the SDD basis function level for Hg, and using 6-311++G (3df, 3pd) for other species. Molecular energies were calculated at QCISD (T) level with zero point energy.
