Background: Post-operative recognition dysfunction (POCD) is a kind of central nervous system complication that appears after operative anesthesia. Recent studies on the mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in neurodegenerative diseases are abundant.
Aims: The study aimed to explore the expression pattern and role of lncRNA OIP5-AS1 in POCD and to investigate its underlying mechanism in old rats.
Methods: The old rats were exposed to isoflurane to mimic the POCD in the elderly, and their cognitive function was tested via Morris water maze (MWM) test. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was applied for the concentration detection of inflammation and oxidative stress-related factors. Luciferase reporter assay was done for the target gene analysis.
Results: Downregulation of OIP5-AS1 was accompanied by isoflurane treatment in rats, overexpression of OIP5-AS1 induced the rats to spend more time in the target quadrant, and shorten escape latency time. OIP5-AS1 inhibited the release of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β, GSH and superoxide dismutase, decreased the activation of caspase-3, but promoted malondialdehyde release. miR-186-5p was a target miRNA of OIP5-AS1, and exhibited high expression in rats after isoflurane exposure. miR-186-5p can abolish the beneficial role of OIP5-AS1 against cognitive impairment, inflammatory response, oxidative stress and neuron apoptosis.
Conclusion: OIP5-AS1 plays a neuroprotective role in elderly POCD rats through sponging miR-186-5p, and it is related to OIP5-AS1/miR-186-5p mediated inflammatory response, oxidative stress and neuron apoptosis.

Marine cyclopianes are a family of diterpenoid with novel carbon skeleton and diverse biological activities. Herein, we report our synthetic and chemical proteomics studies of cyclopiane diterpenes which culminate in the asymmetric total synthesis of conidiogenones C, K and 12β-hydroxy conidiogenone C, and identification of Immunity-related GTPase family M protein 1 (IRGM1) as a cellular target. Our asymmetric synthesis commences from Wieland-Miescher ketone and features a sequential intramolecular Pauson-Khand reaction and gold-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization to rapidly construct the 6-5-5-5 tetracyclic skeleton.

The potential for mitigating intestinal inflammation through the gut-bone axis in the treatment of osteoporosis is significant. While various gut-derived postbiotics or bacterial metabolites have been created as dietary supplements to prevent or reverse bone loss, their efficacy and safety still need improvement. Herein, a colon-targeted drug delivery system is developed using surface engineering of polyvinyl butyrate nanoparticles by shellac resin to achieve sustained release of postbiotics butyric acid at the colorectal site.

Lactobacillus species dominance of the vaginal microbiome is a hallmark of vaginal health. Pathogen displacement of vaginal lactobacilli drives innate immune activation and mucosal barrier disruption, increasing the risks of STI acquisition and, in pregnancy, of preterm birth. We describe differential TLR mediated activation of the proinflammatory transcription factor NF-κB by vaginal pathogens and commensals.
