Background: Sepsis-induced small-intestinal injury is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Our previous study and other papers have shown that HIF-1α has a protective effect on intestinal mucosal injury in septic rats. The purpose of this study is to further verify the protective effect of HIF-1α on intestinal mucosa and its molecular mechanism in vitro experiments.
Methods: Caco-2 cells were selected and experiment was divided into 2 parts. Part I: HIF-1α activator and inhibitor were used to treat lipopolysacchrides (LPS)-stimulated Caco-2 cells respectively, to explore the effect of HIF-1α on LPS induced Caco-2 cell epithelial model; Part II: mTOR activator or inhibitor combined with or without HIF-1α activator, inhibitor to treat LPS-stimulated Caco-2 cells respectively, and then the molecular mechanism of HIF-1α reducing LPS induced Caco-2 cell epithelial model damage was detected.
Results: The results showed that HIF-1α activator decreased the permeability and up regulated tight junction (TJ) expression, while HIF-1α inhibitor had the opposite effect with the HIF-1α activator. mTOR activation increased, while mTOR inhibition decreased HIF-1α protein and expression of its downstream target molecules, which can be attenuated by HIF-1α activator or inhibitor.
Conclusion: This study once again confirmed that HIF-1α alleviates LPS-induced mucosal epithelial model damage through P70S6K signalling pathway. It is of great value to explore whether HIF-2α plays crucial roles in the regulation of mucosal epithelial model functions in the future.

Mental disorders are complex illnesses with multifactorial etiologies involving genetic and environmental components. This review focuses on cellular models derived from the olfactory epithelium as a promising tool to study the molecular mechanisms of some neuropsychiatric diseases. The authors consider cell lines allowing the identification of potential biomarkers and pathogenetic mechanisms of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer's disease.

Background: Increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the pathological process of dry eye disease. Our previous results suggested that norepinephrine (NE) has a protective effect on dry eye.
Purpose: This study explored the potential therapeutic role and underlying mechanisms of NE in benzalkonium chloride (BAC)-induced dry eye disease.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a conserved cellular process critical for embryogenesis, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. During EMT, cells undergo large-scale metabolic reprogramming that supports multiple functional phenotypes including migration, invasion, survival, chemo-resistance and stemness. However, the extent of metabolic network rewiring during EMT is unclear.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells which possess immunomodulatory and repair capabilities. In this study, we investigated whether MSC therapy could modulate inflammation and lung damage in the lungs of Scnn1b-transgenic mice overexpressing the β-subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (β-ENaC), a model with features of Cystic Fibrosis lung disease. Human bone marrow derived MSC cells were intravenously delivered to mice, prior to collection of bronchoalveolar lavage (BALF) and tissue.

Rationale And Objectives: Nasal polyps (NP) and inverted papilloma (IP) are benign tumors within the nasal cavity, each necessitating distinct treatment approaches. Herein, we investigate the utility of a deep learning (DL) model for distinguishing between NP and IP.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1791 patients with nasal benign tumors from two hospitals were retrospectively enrolled.
