    Reasonable Application Can Alleviate the Liver Injury for Osteoarthritis Treatment

    Abstract The potential toxicity of herbal drugs, particularly drug-induced liver injury (DILI), has received extensive attention as the use of Chinese herbal medicine has rapidly increased globally. As a classic Chinese patent medicine, Zhuang Gu Guan Jie Wan (ZGGJW) has been brought into focus recently because of its satisfactory therapeutic effects on osteoarthritis (OA) as well as its unanticipated side effects. This study aimed to decipher the puzzling phenomenon of liver injury developing in response to ZGGJW that varies by the subtype of OA. Normal, anterior cruciate ligament transaction (ACLT) and partial medial meniscectomy (MMx) induced OA and ovariectomy combined with ACLT and partial MMx induced rat models were used and treated orally with ZGGJW or distilled water for 30 days. The results from histopathology, biochemistry, and immunohistochemistry showed that ZGGJW induced liver injury, increased the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), and decreased the levels of total antioxidation capability (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), interleukin-22 (IL-22), and signal transducer and activator of transcription factor 3 (STAT3) in the liver of normal rats, while liver injury was alleviated and showed different tendencies in the above markers for ACLT and partial MMx induction rats and ovariectomy combined with ACLT and partial MMx induction rats after ZGGJW treatment. In the OA disease states, hepatic injury induced by ZGGJW could be associated with an impairment in antioxidant capacity and the high levels of IL-22 and STAT3 after ZGGJW treatment may be responsible for the slight hepatic injury of ZGGJW based on the subtype of OA. This study provides a novel approach to better understanding of the risks and limitations when using potentially toxic Chinese patent medicine in clinical applications.

    Abstract Twenty-three new C21 steroidal glycosides, marstenacissides C1–C10 (1–10), D1–D7 (11–17) and E1–E6 (18–23), and four new C21 steroids, 11α,12β-O-ditigloyl-tenacigenin C (24), 11α-O-benzoyl-12β-O-tigloyl-tenacigenin C (25), 11α-O-tigloyl-12β-O-benzoyl-tenacigenin C (26) and 11α-O-tigloyl-12β-O-benzoyl-marsdenin (27), were isolated from the Dai herbal medicine Dai-Bai-Jie, derived from the roots of Marsdenia tenacissima. The chemical structures of all compounds were established by spectroscopic techniques, including high-resolution mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, as well as by comparison with reported spectral data. The anti-HIV activities of these compounds were screened, and the compounds obtained displayed inhibitory effects against HIV-1 with inhibition rates of 36.4–81.3% at 30 μM.

    Abstract Photoreceptors are electrically coupled to one another, and the spatiotemporal properties of electrical synapses in a two-dimensional retinal network are still not well studied, because of the limitation of the single electrode or pair recording techniques which do not allow simultaneously measuring responses of multiple photoreceptors at various locations in the retina. A multiple electrode recording system is needed. In this study, we investigate the network properties of the two-dimensional rod coupled array of the salamander retina (both sexes were used) by using the newly available multiple patch electrode system that allows simultaneous recordings from up to eight cells and to determine the electrical connectivity among multiple rods. We found direct evidence that voltage signal spread in the rod-rod coupling network in the absence of

    Abstract Importance: Evidence regarding the effect of dietary niacin intake on the risk of mortality among patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is scarce.
    Objective: To examine the association of dietary niacin intake with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality among individuals with NAFLD.
    Design, setting, and participants: This cohort study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2003-2018). In total, 4315 adults aged 20 years or older with NAFLD were included, with NAFLD defined using the United States Fatty Liver Index.
    Exposure: Dietary niacin intake levels.
    Main outcomes and measures: Weighted Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic splines were used to estimate hazard ratios and 95% CIs for all-cause and CVD mortality. Data were analyzed March 1 to September 1, 2023.
    Results: This cohort study included data from 4315 participants in the analysis (mean [SD] age, 52.5 [16.2] years; 1670 participants ≥60 years [weighted, 30.9%]; 2351 men [weighted, 55.0%]). During a median (IQR) follow-up of 8.8 (4.6-11.8) years, 566 deaths were recorded, of which 197 were attributed to CVD. Compared with participants with a niacin intake of 18.4 mg or lower (the lowest tertile), the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios for participants with a niacin intake of 26.7 mg or higher (the highest tertile) were 0.70 (95% CI, 0.50-0.96) for all-cause mortality (P = .03 for trend) and 0.65 (95% CI, 0.35-1.20) for CVD mortality (P = .16 for trend).
    Conclusions and relevance: Findings from this cohort study suggest that higher dietary niacin intake may be associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality among individuals with NAFLD. There was no evident inverse association between dietary niacin intake and the risk of CVD mortality.

    Abstract The intraocular pressure inside the human eye maintains 10-21 mmHg above the atmospheric pressure. Elevation of intraocular pressure is highly correlated with the retinopathy in glaucoma, and changes in the exterior pressure during mountain hiking, air traveling, and diving may also induce vision decline and retinopathy. The pathophysiological mechanism of these pressure-induced retinal disorders has not been completely clear. Retinal neurons express pressure-sensitive channels intrinsically sensitive to pressure and membrane stretch, such as the transient receptor potential channel (TRP) family permeable to Ca
