| 1 | Scutellarin protects oxygen/glucose-deprived astrocytes and reduces focal cerebral ischemic injury显示文摘Scutellarin, a bioactive flavone isolated from Scutellaria baicalensis, has anti-inflammatory, anti-neurotoxic, anti-apoptotic and anti-oxidative effects and has been used to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in China. However, the mechanisms by which scutellarin mediates neuroprotection in cerebral ischemia remain unclear. The interaction between scutellarin and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 2(NOX2) was assessed by molecular docking study, which showed that scutellarin selectively binds to NOX2 with high affinity. Cultures of primary astrocytes isolated from the cerebral cortex of neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with 2, 10 or 50 μM scutellarin for 30 minutes. The astrocytes were then subjected to oxygen/glucose deprivation by incubation for 2 hours in glucose-free Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium in a 95% N2/5% CO_2 incubator, followed by simulated reperfusion for 22 hours. Cell viability was assessed by cell counting kit-8 assay. Expression levels of NOX2, connexin 43 and caspase-3 were assessed by western blot assay. Reactive oxygen species were measured spectrophotometrically. Pretreatment with 10 or 50 μM scutellarin substantially increased viability, reduced the expression of NOX2 and caspase-3, increased the expression of connexin 43, and diminished the levels of reactive oxygen species in astrocytes subjected to ischemia-reperfusion. We also assessed the effects of scutellarin in vivo in the rat transient middle cerebral artery occlusion model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Rats were given intraperitoneal injection of 100 mg/kg scutellarin 2 hours before surgery. The Bederson scale was used to assess neurological deficit, and 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining was used to measure infarct size. Western blot assay was used to assess expression of NOX2 and connexin 43 in brain tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHd G), 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal(4-HNE) and 3-nitrotyrosin(3-NT) in brain tissue. Immunofluorescence double staining was used to determine the co-expression of caspase-3 and Neu N. Pretreatment with scutellarin improved the neurological function of rats with focal cerebral ischemia, reduced infarct size, diminished the expression of NOX2, reduced levels of 8-OHd G, 4-HNE and 3-NT, and reduced the number of cells co-expressing caspase-3 and Neu N in the injured brain tissue. Furthermore, we examined the effect of the NOX2 inhibitor apocynin. Apocynin substantially increased connexin 43 expression in vivo and in vitro. Collectively, our findings suggest that scutellarin protects against ischemic injury in vitro and in vivo by downregulating NOX2, upregulating connexin 43, decreasing oxidative damage, and reducing apoptotic cell death. | Jing-Bo Sun Yan Li Ye-Feng Cai Yan Huang Shu Liu Patrick KK Yeung Min-Zhen Deng Guang-Shun Sun Prince LM Zilundu Qian-Sheng Hu Rui-Xin An Li-Hua Zhou Li-Xin Wang Xiao Cheng | 2018 | Neural Regeneration Research2018,13,8: | 16 |
| 2 | Validation of the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children(PAQ-C) among Chinese Children显示文摘Objective This study initially validates the Chinese version of the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children(PAQ-C), which has been identified as a potentially valid instrument to assess moderate-to-vigorous physical activity(MVPA) in children among diverse racial groups. Methods The psychometric properties of the PAQ-C with 742 Hong Kong Chinese children were assessed with the scale's internal consistency, reliability, test-retest reliability, confirmatory factory analysis(CFA) in the overall sample, and multistep invariance tests across gender groups as well as convergent validity with body mass index(BMI), and an accelerometry-based MVPA. Results The Cronbach alpha coefficient(α=0.79), composite reliability value(ρ=0.81), and the intraclass correlation coefficient(α=0.82) indicate the satisfactory reliability of the PAQ-C score. The CFA indicated data fit a single factor model, suggesting that the PAQ-C measures only one construct, on MVPA over the previous 7 days. The multiple-group CFAs suggested that the factor loadings and variances and covariances of the PAQ-C measurement model were invariant across gender groups. The PAQ-C score was related to accelerometry-based MVPA(r=0.33) and inversely related to BMI(r=-0.18). Conclusion This study demonstrates the reliability and validity of the PAQ-C in Chinese children. | WANG Jing Jing BARANOWSKI Tom LAU WC Patrick CHEN Tzu An PITKETHLY Amanda Jane | 2016 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2016,29,3: | 7 |

| 4 | High prevalence of epilepsy in onchocerciasis endemic health areas in Democratic Republic of the Congo显示文摘Background:A high prevalence of epilepsy has been observed in many onchocerciasis endemic regions.This study is to estimate the prevalence of active epilepsy and exposure to Onchocerca volvulus infection in a rural population in Ituri province,Democratic Republic of Congo.Methods:In August 2016,a community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in an onchocerciasis endemic area in the rural health zone of Logo,Ituri Province.Households within two neighbouring health areas were randomly sampled.To identify persons with epilepsy,a three-stage approach was used.In the first stage,all individuals of the selected households were screened for epilepsy by non-medical field workers using a validated 5-item questionnaire.In the second and third stage,suspected cases of epilepsy were examined by non-specialist medical doctors,and by a neurologist,respectively.A case of epilepsy was defined according to the 2014 International League Against Epilepsy(ILAE)guidelines.Exposure to O.volvulus was assessed by testing for IgG4 antibodies to an O.volvulus antigen(OV16 Rapid Test,)in individuals aged 3 years and older.Results:Out of 1389 participants included in the survey,64 were considered to have active epilepsy(prevalence 4.6%)(95%confidence interval[CI]:3.6-5.8).The highest age-specific epilepsy prevalence estimate was observed in those aged 20 to 29 years(8.2%).Median age of epilepsy onset was 10 years,with a peak incidence of epilepsy in the 10 to 15 year-old age group.OV16 test results were available for 912 participants,of whom 30.5%(95%CI,27.6-33.6)tested positive.The prevalence of OV16 positivity in a village ranged from 8.6 to 68.0%.After adjusting for age,gender and ivermectin use,a significant association between exposure to onchocerciasis and epilepsy was observed(adjusted odds ratio=3.19,95%CI:1.63-5.64)(P<0.001).Conclusions:A high prevalence of epilepsy and a significant association between epilepsy and exposure to O.volvulus were observed in the population in Ituri province,Democratic Republic of Congo.There is an urgent need to implement a CDTI programme and to scale up an epilepsy treatment and care programme. | Evy Lenaerts Michel Mandro Deby Mukendi Patrick Suykerbuyk Housseini Dolo Deogratias Wonya’Rossi Françoise Ngave Chellafe Ensoy-Musoro Anne Laudisoit An Hotterbeekx Robert Colebunders | 2018 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2018,7,1: | 5 |
| 5 | Better to be alone than in bad company:The antagonistic effect of cisplatin and crizotinib combination therapy in non-small cell lung cancer显示文摘AIM To investigate the potential benefit of combining the cMET inhibitor crizotinib and cisplatin we performed in vitro combination studies.METHODS We tested three different treatment schemes in four non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) cell lines with a different cMET/epidermal growth factor receptor genetic background by means of the sulforhodamine B assay and performed analysis with Calcusyn.RESULTS All treatment schemes showed an antagonistic effect in all cell lines,independent of the cMET status.Despite their different genetic backgrounds,all cell lines(EBC-1,HCC827,H1975 and LUDLU-1) showed antagonistic combination indexes ranging from 1.3-2.7.These results were independent of the treatment schedule.CONCLUSION These results discourage further efforts to combine cMET inhibition with cisplatin chemotherapy in NSCLC. | Nele Van Der Steen Christophe Deben Vanessa Deschoolmeester An Wouters Filip Lardon Christian Rolfo Paul Germonpré Elisa Giovannetti Godefridus J Peters Patrick Pauwels | 2016 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2016,7,6: | 2 |

| 12 | Report of the first international workshop on onchocerciasis-associated epilepsy显示文摘Background:Recently,several epidemiological studies performed in Onchocerca volvulus-endemic regions have suggested that onchocerciasis-associated epilepsy(OAE)may constitute an important but neglected public health problem in many countries where onchocerciasis is still endemic.Main text:On October 12-14th 2017,the first international workshop on onchocerciasis-associated epilepsy(OAE)was held in Antwerp,Belgium.The workshop was attended by 79 participants from 20 different countries.Recent research findings strongly suggest that O.volvulus is an important contributor to epilepsy,particularly in meso-and hyperendemic areas for onchocerciasis.Infection with O.volvulus is associated with a spectrum of epileptic seizures,mainly generalised tonic-clonic seizures but also atonic neck seizures(nodding),and stunted growth.OAE is characterised by an onset of seizures between the ages of 3-18 years.Multidisciplinary working groups discussed topics such as how to 1)strengthen the evidence for an association between onchocerciasis and epilepsy,2)determine the burden of disease caused by OAE,3)prevent OAE,4)improve the treatment/care for persons with OAE and affected families,5)identify the pathophysiological mechanism of OAE,and 6)deal with misconceptions,stigma,discrimination and gender violence associated with OAE.An OAE Alliance was created to increase awareness about OAE and its public health importance,stimulate research and disseminate research findings,and create partnerships between OAE researchers,communities,advocacy groups,ministries of health,non-governmental organisations,the pharmaceutical industry and funding organizations.Conclusions:Although the exact pathophysiological mechanism underlying OAE remains unknown,there is increasing evidence that by controlling and eliminating onchocerciasis,OAE will also disappear.Therefore,OAE constitutes an additional argument for strengthening onchocerciasis elimination efforts.Given the high numbers of people with epilepsy in O.volvulus-endemic regions,more advocacy is urgently needed to provide anti-epileptic treatment to improve the quality of life of these individuals and their families. | Robert Colebunders Michel Mandro Alfred K.Njamnshi Michel Boussinesq An Hotterbeekx Joseph Kamgno Sarah O’Neill Adrian Hopkins Patrick Suykerbuyk Maria-Gloria Basanez Rory J.Post Belen Pedrique Pierre-Marie Preux Wilma A.Stolk Thomas B.Nutman Richard Idro | 2018 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2018,7,1: | 1 |
