Objective To investigate the role of Kelch-like- epichlorohydrin-associated protein1/nuclear factor erythroid-derived factor-2-related factor 2 （Keap1-Nrf2） and nuclear factor-κB（NF-κB） signaling pathways in sepsis-associated encephalopathy（SAE）. Methods Male C57BL/6J mice of SPF were randomly divided into four groups （n=10）： the control group and LPS 6 h, 24 h and 48 h groups. The behavioral changes of the mice were assessed based on their general conditions and open field test（OFT）. ELISA was used to measure the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in mouse serum, and the antioxidant capacity assay kit to examine antioxidant activity in brain tissues of mice. Real-time quantitative PCR（qPCR） was adopted to detect the mRNA levels of toll-like receptor4 （Tlr4）, NF-κB, Keap1 and Nrf2 in the hippocampus, and to determine protein expressions of NF-κB、Nrf2、Keap1 and Tlr4 with Western blotting. Results Compared to the control group, the serum concentrations of interleukin 6 （IL-6） in lipopolysaccharide（LPS） groups increased at 6 h, and reached the peak at 24 h and 48 h （P<0.01）. The levels of serum interleukin 18 （IL-18） in the LPS groups increased significantly at 6 h and 24 h （P<0.01） but there was no statistically significant difference compared with the 48h group. The results indicated the activity of superoxide dismutase（SOD） and glutathione（GSH） in brain tissues in LPS groups increased（P<0.01）. OFT results showed the time spent in the center of the open field, the distance covered around the center, and total distance covered by mice in LPS groups were significantly reduced （P<0.01）,except for the time spent in the center of the open field in the LPS 24 h group. The mRNA expressions of Tlr4 and （LPS 6 h, 48 h） NF-κB in the hippocampus tissue of mice in LPS groups were elevated （P<0.05）, so were the mRNA expressions of Keap1 and Nrf2 in LPS 6 h group. Additionally, the protein expressions of NF-κB, Keap1 and Tlr4 increased in LPS groups, so did the protein expression of Nrf2 in LPS 24 h and 48 h groups（P<0.05）. Conclusion Keap1-Nrf2 and NF-κB signaling pathways may play a certain role in SAE.;

Objective To explore the role and possible mechanism of transforming growth factor-β3 （TGF-β3） in radiation-induced lung epithelial cell injury, and to provide data for the prevention and treatment of radiation-caused lung injury. Methods The type Ⅱ transforming growth factor -β receptor （TGFBR2） siRNA was designed, synthesized and screened for cell TGFBR2 interference. Human bronchial epithelial cells （Beas-2B cells） and their TGFBR2 interference cells were randomly divided into the control group, 5 ng/ml TGF-β3 acting group （TGF-β3 group）, 6 Gy ⁶⁰Co-γ-ray irradiation group （6 Gy group）, and 6 Gy ⁶⁰Co-γ-ray irradiation+5 ng/ml TGF-β3 action group （6 Gy+TGF-β3 group）. The expressions of collagens and TGFBR2 in each group were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR（RT-qPCR）, and the expression of smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）, a marker of epithelial-mesenchymal transition（EMT）, was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blotting. Cell apoptosis and cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results （1） TGF-β3 could significantly inhibit the expressions of collagens induced by radiation and reduce the abnormally high expressions of α-SMA gene and protein, which was a marker of EMT induced by radiation, suggesting that TGF-β3 could effectively protect against lung cell fibrosis induced by radiation. （2） TGF-β3 could inhibit abnormally high expressions of TGFBR2 induced by radiation, and had significant protective effect on cell apoptosis and G₂/M phase arrest induced by radiation.（3） The protective effect of TGF-β3 on radiation-induced apoptosis and G₂/M cell cycle arrest was lost after TGFBR2 interference, suggesting that TGF-β3 exerted its inhibitory effect on radiation-induced lung epithelial cell injury through TGFBR2. Conclusion TGF-β3 can protect radiation-damaged lung epithelial cells through TGFBR2.

Objective To investigate the effect of classical neurotransmitter-serotonin-on innate immunity against DNA viruses and its potential molecular mechanism. Methods Blood samples of mice were collected at different time points after HSV-1 infection. Serotonin concentrations in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. At the cellular level, cells were pretreated with serotonin or a serotonin transporter inhibitor before being stimulated by HSV-1 or exogenous dsDNA to induce type Ⅰ interferon production. The mRNA levels of type Ⅰ interferon and viral replication were detected by real-time quantitative PCR, and the activation of cGAS-STING pathway was detected by Western blotting. Mice were pretreated with serotonin and then infected with HSV-1. Serum was collected and the levels of type Ⅰ interferon were detected by ELISA. Organs were collected to detect the amount of virus replication by real-time quantitative PCR. Results After HSV-1 infection, serotonin concentrations in serum of mice increased. Pretreatment with serotonin inhibited the production of type I interferon in immune cells during HSV-1 infection, and the viral replication increased. In mice, serotonin treatment suppressed the host type Ⅰ interferon response during HSV-1 infection, resulting in elevated viral infection. Studies on the mechanism showed that the effect of serotonin depended on serotonin transporters. Serotonin could inhibit both the phosphorylation of key proteins in the cGAS-STING pathway and the expression of the interferon, thus affecting the host antiviral innate immunity. Conclusion Serotonin can inhibit antiviral innate immunity mediated by cGAS-STING pathway, which is expected to provide a new target for research and development of antiviral drugs.

Organoid technology is a new frontier technology in the field of life sciences. An organoid is now defined as a 3D structure derived from either pluripotent stem cells （PSCs） or organ-restricted adult stem cells （ASCs） and critically dependent on the multi-lineage differentiation and self-organization potential of stem cells in culture. Most excitingly,many recent studies describe organoids as consisting of organ-specific cell types,exhibiting key structural and functional properties through cell sorting and spatially restricted lineage commitment. Human organoids can overcome the disadvantages of traditional biomedical models-2D cell lines and animal models,thus filling the gap of ex vivo human tissue accessibility and related ethical considerations. The rapid advancement of organoid technology revolutionizes biomedical research,promises exciting new insights into developmental biology and opens new routes for necessary clinical approaches to treating human diseases and regenerative medicine. In this review,we discuss the definition of organoids,origin of organoid technology,potential clinical translation applications and existing challenges.

The recording and analysis of activities of calcium signals in neurons is of critical importance in the field of neuroscience. Over the past three decades, various fluorescent calcium imaging techniques not only have been used in the imaging study of functional activities of neuronal communities, but also can be combined with specific markers to record the functional activities of specific types of neuronal communities. To analyze neural activities at the cellular level, a series of preprocessing such as motion correction, cell body recognition, calcium signal extraction and peak deconvolution is required for the collected video. However, current methods for manual preprocessing are time-consuming and laborious, so computer automatic analysis technology is urgently needed to quickly repair the jitter in the video, identify the position and outline of a single cell, extract its activity trajectory and infer the action potential peak. In this paper, the methods of calcium imaging data processing used in recent years are summarized, and the future developments are predicted.

The intestine-on-a-chip is a cutting-edge and in vitro research model of human intestines that has gained much attention in recent years. In comparison to traditional static culture models of intestinal epithelial cells, the intestine-on-a-chip offers numerous advantages. It accurately mimics the morphological structure of the intestine in vivo, allowing for the simulation of the microphysiological environment in intestinal tissues. Furthermore, it can be customized on a large scale and enables high-throughput drug screening. The intestine-on-a-chip has widespread applications in various areas, including the development of intestinal disease models, as well as drug screening and testing. The technology behind the intestine-on-a-chip is based on a co-culture system of intestinal epithelial cells and other cell types. Such chips can not only construct three-dimensional structures such as intestinal microvilli and folds in combination with microengineering techniques, but also replicate the intricacies of the intestine. Microfluidic devices are employed to simulate biomechanical parameters like blood flow and physiological peristalsis within the intestinal tissues, thus giving such chips microphysiological characteristics akin to those of natural intestinal tissues and subjecting it to biomechanical regulation. This review provided an overview of the advances in intestine-on-a-chip technology, focusing on cell co-culture techniques, microfluidic technology, and microengineering techniques. Furthermore, the application of this technology in intestinal disease modeling, and drug screening and testing were summarized.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of dental pulp stem cells （DPSCs） against high-altitude pulmonary edema （HAPE） and explore the mechanism. Methods Twenty-one Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the normal control group （Control）, high altitude pulmonary edema group （HAPE） and DPSC prevention group （DPSC）. Three days and one day before the hypobaric and hypoxia environment was simulated, DPSCs were administrated via the tail vein in the DPSC group, and phosphate buffered saline（PBS） of the same volume was injected in the control group and HAPE group. After that, rats in the HAPE group and DPSC group were placed in a simulated hypobaric and hypoxic cabin to simulate the environment at an altitude of 6000 m before an HAPE model was established. The rats were sacrificed 3 days later, and the histopathological changes of lung tissue were observed via hematoxylin-eosine （HE） staining. The dry/wet weight of lung tissues was recorded. The concentrations of total protein in lung homogenate were detected using the BCA method. The expression of aquaporin 1 （APQ-1） in lung tissue was detected by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR） and Western blotting. Colorimetry and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） were used to detect the concentrations of plasma vasoactive substances. The expression of inflammatory factors in serum and lung tissue was detected by ELISA and RT-PCR respectively. Results After three days of treatment in a simulated hypobaric and hypoxic environment, the lung tissue of the HAPE group showed infiltration of inflammatory cells, alveolar wall thickening, alveolar septum thickening and increases of exudation. DPSC prevention could significantly reduce the histopathological damage to the lung. Lung water content （LWC） and total protein content of lung homogenate were significantly increased in the HAPE group but obviously reduced in the DPSC prevention group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant （P<0.01）. The protein and mRNA expression levels of AQP-1 in lung tissue of the HAPE group were significantly decreased, but prevention via DPSCs could enhance the expression of AQP-1 in lung tissue. In the HAPE group, the concentrations of nitrous oxide （NO） and prostacyclin （PGI2） in plasma were significantly decreased, but prevention via DPSCs could significantly increase the expression of plasma vasoactive substances. The expressions of inflammatory factors interleukin-1α （IL-1α） and tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） in serum and lung tissue of the HAPE group increased significantly, but decreased in the DPSC prevention group. Conclusion DPSCs can help prevent high-altitude pulmonary edema in rats by promoting the expression of aquaporin, increasing the content of vasodilators in plasma and reducing the expression of inflammatory factors in serum and lung tissue.;

Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of glutathione peroxidase 3-（GPx3） modified mesenchymal stem cells （MSC） against radiation-induced lung injury （RILI）. Methods GPx3-modified MSCs were injected into the tail vein of mice whose lungs were irradiated with 20 Gy. Lung tissues were collected and sections were stained to observe pathological changes. The expression levels of inflammation-related factors were detected by real time quantitative PCR（qPCR）, while the levels of malondialdehyde （MDA）, H₂O₂, and 8-hydroxyguanine （8-OHG） were detected via biochemical experiments. Additionally, RNA damage was assessed by reverse transcription blocking combining with double primer PCR. Results GPx3-modified MSCs significantly improved the pathological damage in post-radiation lung tissues and inhibited the fibrosis process and inflammatory response. GPx3-modified MSCs were able to scavenge reactive oxygen species （ROS） more effectively, resulting in a reduction of lipid peroxidation products such as MDA and oxidative damage to RNA formation of 8-OHG. Conclusion By decreasing ROS accumulation, GPx3-modified MSCs can potentially reduce oxidative damage and attenuate RILI. GPx3-modified MSCs can improve the therapeutic efficacy against RILI.

Objective To find out about the current literacy level and awareness rate of health among recruits in a unit,and analyze the influencing factors so as to provide reference for formulating programs for health education and health promotion. Methods A total of 1846 recruits were surveyed via the China Citizen Health Literacy Questionnaire compiled by China Health Education Center in 2015,involving three dimensions--basic health knowledge and theory, healthy lifestyle and behavior, and fundamental skills and involving six types of problems--scientific health concepts,infectious disease prevention and treatment,chronic disease prevention and treatment,safety and first aid,basicmedical care, and health information. χ² test and multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis were used. Results The overall level of health literacy among these new recruits was 8.88%,the score of health literacy was 37.07±12.45,and the health literacy awareness rate was 60.56%. Among the three dimensions,the level of life-styles and behavior was the lowest,which was 10.18%. Among the six types of problems,the literacy level of chronic disease prevention and control was the lowest（9.75%）. The awareness rate of health information was the lowest,which was 48.91%. There were 24 items（48% of the total） where the awareness rate was less than 60%. Among them,the awareness rate of the benefits of eating soybean was the lowest（9.53%）,followed by descriptions of the liver（only 10.78%）. Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that the health literacy level of females was higher than that of males （OR=2.407,95%CI：1.430-4.054）. Compared with urban areas, the health literacy level in rural areas was lower（OR=0.613,95%CI：0.436-0.862）. The health literacy level of recruits with a college education and above was the highest （OR=1.799, 95%CI：1.216-2.664）.And the health literacy level of mothers who were farmers was the lowest （OR=0.491, 95%CI：0.303-0.797）. Conclusion The health literacy level of new recruits is low,especially regarding the prevention and treatment of diseases,suggesting that the military should make related knowledge more accessible to recruits and enforce health interventions.

Objective To establish a model of pulmonary fibrosis-prone and fibrosis-resistant mice and screen the differential genes in lung tissues before and after irradiation by telomere and telomerase real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR（RT-qPCR） microarray. Methods The chests of C57BL/6J and C3H/HeN mice were irradiated with 20 Gy ⁶⁰Co gamma rays. The differences in radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis（RIPF） progression between them were studied via HE staining, sirius red staining, hydroxyproline content, TGF- β and CTGF detection. Telomere and telomerase RT-qPCR microarray was used to compare the expressions of telomere and telomerase related genes in their lung tissues before irradiation and 3 months after irradiation. The differential genes were verified by RT-qPCR. Results The fibrotic lesions of C57BL/6J mice were more obvious than those of C3H/HeN mice 3 months after irradiation. The content of hydroxyproline in lung tissues of C57BL/6J mice was significantly higher than before irradiation and in C3H/HeN mice（P<0.05）, and much more collagen typeⅠwas deposited in the alveolar wall of C57BL/6J mice than in that of C3H/HeN mice. The contents of TGF-β and CTGF in lung tissues of C57BL/6J mice were significantly higher than in those of C3H/HeN mice（P<0.05）. There were 48 differential genes in telomere and telomerase related pathways in lung tissues of control C57BL/6J and C3H/HeN mice and 32 differential genes were found in the lung tissues of the two types of mice 3 months after irradiation. Moreover, 8 differential genes were discovered in the lung tissues of C57BL/6J mice 3 months after irradiation and 4 discrepant genes were detected in the lung tissues of C3H/HeN mice after irradiation. The differential gene Tnks2 was verified. The expression of Tnks2 in lung tissues of C3H/HeN mice 3 months after irradiation was higher than that of C57BL/6J mice and before irradiation（P<0.05）. Conclusion Differential genes in telomere and telomerase related pathways in lung tissues of fibrosis-susceptible and fibrosis-resistant mice are found before and after ⁶⁰Co gamma rays irradiation.

The term “junshi yixue” has two meanings in Chinese. One is health care among the military troops and the other is military medical sciences.

The changes of physiological and psychological indexes before and after 3000-meter running at four time points in the process of thermal conditioning training were monitored. Such devices as the body activity meter with a heart rate belt, infrared thermometer and weight scale were used to monitor the heart rate during the plateau phase, body temperature （temperatures of the ear, forehead and palm skin）, amounts of perspiration during the 3000-meter running and the time taken by the 3000-meter running. Rating of perceived exertion（RPE）, thermal sensation（TSV） and sweat feeling index（SFI） were measured by means of questionnaires. Results With the prolongation of heat acclimatization training, the D-value of ear temperatures before and after 3000-meter running trended up （P<0.05） before trending down. The 3000-meter running was finished in a shorter time （P<0.01）, that is, the soldiers were improved athletically. The training-impulse（TRIMP） of 3000-meter running （heart rate × performance） was significantly decreased （P<0.01）, suggesting enhanced cardiovascular function. Conclusion The TRIMP of 3000-meter running and D-value of ear temperatures are easy to monitor and sensitive to changes, which can be used as the first-choice indexes for the evaluation of heat acclimatization at the site of training.

Objective To explore the effects of different types of fatigue and negative emotion factors on sleep quality and to analyze the correlations between sleep quality and alertness so as to provide data for improving sleep quality and cognitive ability of soldiers. Methods A total of 142 male soldiers were selected. Levels of fatigue, emotional state, sleep quality and alertness were measured using the Fatigue Symptom Questionnaire, Symptom Checklist?90 （SCL-90）, Pitts?burgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI） and Psychomotor Vigilance Task （PVT） respectively. Results The PSQI score of these soldiers was 5.16±2.66, which was significantly higher than the norm for adults （P＜0.01） but lower than the norm for soldiers stationed on the plateau and along frontiers （P<0.05）. Soldiers with a PSQI≥7 were considered to suffer from sleep disorders, accounting for 31% of the soldiers tested. The total scores of fatigue， SCI?90 and PSQI were positively correlated （r=0.40, P<0.01;r=0.48, P＜0.01）, and psychosensory symptoms were positively correlated with daytime dysfunction （r=0.54, P＜0.01）. When the sleep disorder group was compared with the good sleep group， there were significant differences in each dimension of fatigue and sub?factor of emotion （P＜0.05）. The total score of fatigue （B=0.03， P=0.023） and that of SCL?90 （B=0.07， P=0.015） were the primary determinants of sleep quality. The total score of PSQl （B=0.01， P＜0.01）, which was an influencing factor of alertness, was positively correlated with the mean reaction time of PVT （r=0.55，P＜0.01）. Conclusion Compared with ordinary adults, the soldiers take a much longer time to fall asleep, which is likely to lead to serious sleep problems, such as a significant decline in subjective sleep quality, sleep time and sleep efficiency. The cumulative effect of various types of fatigue, negative emotions, and the synergy between fatigue and emotions can impact sleep quality. Targeted measures can be taken to improve sleep based on the cumulative effect and synergy among various factors. Regulation of sleep is critical to posts which require high alertness. Sleeping longer before tasks, naps between tasks, and active adjust after tasks can help maintain alertness.

The blood-brain barrier （BBB） is the main bottleneck for drug treatment of the central nervous system（CNS） diseases. The BBB protects the brain from such harmful substances as bacteria and viruses, but it also constrains the entry of many drugs into brain tissue to exert its efficacy. Non-invasive drug delivery technologies targeting the brain have been developing rapidly, with a great potential for various applications. This article reviews the characteristics and applications of various non-invasive drug delivery technologies targeting the brain based on cell-penetrating peptides, cell carriers, specific receptors and nanomaterials in order to provide data for drug therapies of central nervous diseases.
