Background: Neurogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent complication following radical prostatectomy in elderly patients, primarily resulting from the apoptosis of corpus cavernosum smooth muscle cells (CCSMCs) and the subsequent excessive fibrosis of the corpus cavernosum. Aim: This study aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of exosomes derived from lentivirus-transfected miR-145 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (Exo-145) and unmodified BMSCs-derived exosomes (Exo) in aged rats with bilateral cavernous nerve injury (BCNI) and investigate the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Twenty-four-month-old male rats were assigned to four groups, namely Sham, BCNI, Exo, and Exo-145. Three weeks after treatment, erectile function was assessed by measuring the maximal intracavernosal pressure to mean arterial pressure (ICP/MAP) ratio. Apoptosis and fibrosis were semi-quantitatively analyzed using TUNEL and Masson's trichrome staining, respectively. In vitro, CCSMCs were subjected to H2O2-induced oxidative stress, and the protective effects of Exo-145 were evaluated through flow cytometry and Western blot. Lastly, the targets and mechanisms of miR-145 were further validated using dual-luciferase reporter assays and rescue experiments. Results: Exo-145 significantly outperformed Exo in restoring erectile function in aged BCNI rats, as evidenced by the significantly higher maximal ICP/MAP ratio, a marked reduction in TUNEL-positive cell count, and marked suppression of fibrosis in cavernous tissue. Moreover, Masson's trichrome staining displayed a substantial decrease in collagen deposition. In vitro, Exo-145 alleviated H2O2-induced apoptosis in CCSMCs by downregulating Cleaved Caspase-3 expression and Bax while concurrently upregulating Bcl-2 expression. TGFBR2 was identified as a direct target of miR-145 through dual-luciferase reporter assays, with its overexpression partially reversing the protective effects of Exo-145. Conclusion: Exo-145 demonstrates superior efficacy compared to Exo in treating aged neurogenic ED by targeting TGFBR2 to alleviate apoptosis and fibrosis. It may represent a promising cell-free therapeutic option for neurogenic erectile dysfunction in elderly patients and could offer new perspectives for improving their prognosis.
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) primarily engage with mRNA, DNA, proteins, and microRNAs (miRNAs), thereby regulating gene expression; however, its specific role in diabetic erectile dysfunction (DED) has not been studied. This study aims to investigate the effects and mechanisms of LncRNA CRYM-AS1 in DED. The differential target gene LncRNA CRYM-AS1 was identified in the penile tissues of rats with DED through bioinformatics analyses. A KEGG signaling pathway enrichment analysis suggested a potential association between LncRNA CRYM-AS1 and the Hippo-YAP1 pathway. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) results indicated a significantly lower expression of LncRNA CRYM-AS1 in the penile tissue of DED rats compared to the control group. Western Blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining results demonstrated significantly elevated protein expression levels of YAP1, Caspase3, BAX, and Bcl-2, with a decreased Bcl-2/BAX ratio. CCK8 cell viability results showed a significant decrease in cell viability in the high glucose group at 4 days of modeling, and compared with the normal glucose group, RT-qPCR results showed that the expression of LncRNA CRYM-AS1 in the high glucose group in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was significantly reduced; Western Blot results showed that the protein expression of YAP1, Cleaved-caspase3 and BAX was significantly up-regulated, and the protein expression of Bcl-2 was significantly down-regulated in the high glucose group. Compared with the empty vector group, RT-qPCR results after transfection of siLncRNA CRYM-AS1 showed that the expression of LncRNA CRYM-AS1 was down-regulated, the mRNA and protein expression of YAP1, Caspase3, Cleaved-caspase3, BAX, and Bcl-2 were significantly up-regulated, and the Bcl-2/BAX ratio decreased. Flow cytometry results showed that the apoptosis rate of HUVECs increased after interference. Low expression of LncRNA CRYM-AS1 may activate the Hippo-YAP1 signaling pathway to regulate apoptosis in HUVECs, leading to ED development, and the discovery of new target genes may provide new therapeutic targets to regulate diabetic erectile disfunction.
Purpose: Drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty and laser atherectomy (LA) have been frequently utilized to treat femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR); however, no studies have concurrently compared available regimens, including DCB, LA+DCB, and LA + plain balloon angioplasty (PB). Therefore, we conducted this network meta-analysis to determine whether there were significant differences in outcomes among these regimens. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library to identify all randomized controlled trials comparing DCB or LA-based regimes with POBA or each other for treating femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR) from their inception until March 2021. The primary outcome measure was binary restenosis, and secondary outcome measures were target lesion revascularization (TLR) and mortality, evaluated at 6 and 12 months, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using Aggregate Data Drug Information System (ADDIS) 1.4 software, and all data were graphically summarized using Microsoft Excel software. Results: The final analysis included 11 studies, of which 6 studies compared DCB with PB, 2 studies compared PB vs LA+PB, 2 studies compared DCB vs LA+DCB, and 1 study compared LA+DCB with LA+PB. DCB was better than PB in decreasing binary restenosis at 6 (odds ratio [OR]: 0.22, 95% credible interval [CrI]: 0.04–0.91) and 12 (OR: 0.26, 95% CrI: 0.12–0.50) months. DCB was associated with lower TLR than PB at 6 months (OR: 0.31, 95% CrI: 0.13–0.69). LA+DCB was also superior to PB in treating binary restenosis at 12 months (OR: 6.10, 95% CrI: 1.94–24.41) and TLR at 6 months (OR: 5.32, 95% CrI: 1.43–28.06). There was no statistical difference in mortality between PB, DCB, and LA+PB. DCB and LA+DCB were the first 2 options for reducing binary restenosis and TLR. Conclusion: The current network meta-analysis demonstrates that both DCB and LA+DCB are superior to PB alone, and that DCB and LA+DCB may be the preferred treatment options for reducing binary restenosis and TLR. Clinical Impact The treatment for femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains challenging clinical practice. One important reason is that no optimal treatment strategy was available. Drug-coated balloon angioplasty (DCB) and laser atherectomy (LA) have been extensively utilized to treat ISR; however, different combinations of these treatments further confused the clinicians’ choices. This network meta-analysis systematically investigated the difference between the currently available treatments regarding therapeutic effects and safety, indicating that DCB and LA+DCB may be the optimal treatment for decreasing the risk of binary restenosis and target lesion revascularization. The results of the current network meta-analysis help to resolve the confusion of clinicians in making the decision.
BackgroundTo investigate the mechanism of exosomes (Exo) secretion by hypoxic pretreated adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) promoting skin wound healing in diabetic (DM) mice.MethodsHigh-throughput sequencing was used to investigate abnormal expression of circRNA in hypoxic pretreatment ADSCs exosome (HExo) and ADSCs exosome (Exo). Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporting analysis were used to clarify the interacted relationship among circRNA, miRNA and mRNA. EPCs cells were employ to analysis the ROS, inflammatory cytokines expression, angiogenic differentiation function under hypoxic condition by using immunofluorescence, ELISA detection and tube forming experiment. DM ulceration mice model were constructed and the therapeutic effect of Exo were detected using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence.ResultsThe result show that HExo have more treatment effect than Exo in promotes cutaneous wound healing of DM mice. High-throughput sequencing found that circ-Erbb2ip play a role in HExo mediated tissues repair. Downregulation circ-Erbb2ip decreased the therapeutic effect of HExo to wound healing in diabetic mice. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporting analysis confirmed that both miR-670-5p and Nrf1 were downstream targets of circ-Erbb2ip. Downregulation of Nrf1 or overexpression of miR-670-5p reversed the protective effect of circ-Erbb2ip to EPCs after exposure to high glucose microenvironment. Upregulation circ-Erbb2ip increased the therapeutic effect of Exo to wound healing in diabetic mice by increased angiogenesis and decreased ROS, inflammatory cytokines expression.ConclusionIn conclusion, ADSC-Exos containing circ-Erbb2ip promotes wound healing by targeting miR-670-5p/Nrf1 pathway, and their effects in promoting soft tissue wound healing warrant further study.
To investigate the effect of paired box protein 5 (PAX5)/integrin subunit alpha X (ITGAX) in atherosclerosis (AS). AS model was established using ApoE-/- mice (C57BL/6). Human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs) were stimulated with ox-LDL. Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to detect the expression levels of genes and proteins. Reporter constructs and luciferase assays were used to investigate the role of ITGAX and PAX5. Cells proliferation and inflammation factors were detected. The results presented that aortic plaque area, lipid content, serum triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly increased in the high-fat diet group (p < 0.05). ITGAX was upregulated in atherosclerotic tissues. In addition, ox-LDL treatment induced HVSMCs proliferation, migration, and invasion. Reporter constructs and luciferase assays indicated ITGAX interaction with PAX5. Furthermore, siITGAX and siPAX5 cotransfection restored the rate of HVSMCs in G1 and S and G2/M phases, decreased the content of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-ɑ), interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8 (p < 0.05). Interestingly, siITGAX and siPAX5 cotransfection also decreased the expression levels of TNF-α, TNF-R1, TNF-R2, CD19, and CD86 (p < 0.05). Our results suggest that ITGAX may be a potential therapeutic target for AS.

Purpose: To study the potential therapeutic effects of salvianolic acid A (Sal A) on thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO). Methods: An in vitro model of TAO-mimicking endothelial cell damage was established by incubating ECV304 cells with H2O2. An in vivo model of TAO rats was developed via injection of sodium laurate. After treatment with varying doses of Sal A, TAO symptoms were monitored over time and compared. The effects of Sal A on oxidative stress, pyroptosis, inflammation, and thrombosis were assessed using biochemical assays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blot, and histopathology. Results: Sal A significantly alleviated the inhibition of cell viability induced by H2O2 (p < 0.05). The H2O2-induced increases in levels of ROS, IL-1β, and IL-18 in ECV304 cells were significantly decreased by Sal A (p < 0.05). Moreover, Sal A alleviated TAO symptoms in rats. The enhanced levels of IL-1β, IL-18, NLRP3, and active Caspase-1 observed in TAO rats were reduced by Sal A in vivo (p < 0.05). Moreover, Sal A significantly reduced the size of thrombus in TAO rats. In addition, upregulated levels of ROS were significantly inhibited by Sal A (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Sal A exerts significant therapeutic effects on TAO. This provides mechanistic insights into the clinical effects of RSMA on TAO patients, which might be beneficial in the development of effective drugs against TAO in the future.
Atherosclerosis (AS) is the main cause of cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of AQP9 in AS is not well understood. In the present study, we predicted that miR-330-3p might regulate AQP9 in AS through bioinformatics analysis, and we established AS model using ApoE−/− mouse (C57BL/6) with high-fat diet (HFD). Hematoxylin and eosin (H E) and Oil red O staining were used to determine atherosclerotic lesions. CCK8 and Ethyny1-2-deoxyuridine (EdU) assays were used to investigate human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) proliferation after treatment with 100 μg/mL ox-LDL. Wound scratch healing and transwell assays were used to measure the cell invasion and migration ability. Flow cytometry assay was used to determine apoptosis and cell cycle. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to investigate the binding of miR-330-3p and AQP9. We identified that the expression of miR-330-3p in AS mice model decreased while the expression level of AQP9 increased. miR-330-3p overexpression or down-regulation of AQP9 could reduce cell apoptosis, promote cell proliferation, and migration after ox-LDL treatment. Dual-luciferase reporter assay result presented that AQP9 was directly inhibited by miR-330-3p. These results suggest that miR-330-3p inhibits AS by regulating AQP9. miR-330-3p/AQP9 axis may be a new therapeutic target for AS.
This paper discusses the imaging diagnostic features of arteriosclerotic encephalopathy and combines the spatial context information of local features to study the clinical imaging image copy detection algorithm. Moreover, this paper proposes a clinical imaging copy detection algorithm that combines the BOW model and spatial context embedding and a clinical imaging copy detection algorithm that combines the BOW model and global context verification. In addition, this paper applies the algorithm to the imaging diagnostic features of arteriosclerotic encephalopathy and sets up a controlled experiment to start research. The experimental research shows that the application of imaging diagnosis to the detection of subcortical arteriosclerotic encephalopathy has good clinical effects and rapid remission of patients’ symptoms. The effectiveness of this method can be verified by a large number of clinical practices in follow-up studies.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in the development of vascular diseases. However, the effects of miR-130a-5p and its functional targets on atherosclerosis (AS) are still largely unknown. In this regard, our aim is to explore the potentially important role of miR-130a-5p and its target gene during the progression of endothelial cell injury. We first found oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) induced FAS and cell apoptosis in HUVECs. Subsequently, miR-130a-5p expression was verified to be downregulated after ox-LDL treatment and negatively correlated with FAS, and FAS was identified as substantially upregulated in the ox-LDL-treated HUVEC cells. After that, the knockdown of FAS and overexpression of miR-130a-5p together were observed to aggregate ox-LDL-induced reduction of cell viability and apoptosis, cell cycle progression, cell proliferation, cell migration and invasion. In conclusion, we detected that miR-130a-5p contributed to the progression of endothelial cell injury by regulating of FAS, which may provide a new and promising therapeutic target for AS.

Objective:To compare drug-coated balloon (DCB) and standard angioplasty balloon (SAB) in the treatment of postoperative in-stent restenosis (ISR) in patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) of the lower extremity.Methods:From Jan 2017 to Dec 2018, 43 ISR patients after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for ASO of the lower extremity at our hospital were enrolled.Patients were divided into 2 groups with 18 patients treated by DCB and 25 by SAB. The patients were followed up for 6~12 months.Results:There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between DCB group and SAB group ( P>0.05).Compared with that in SAB group, the plasma level of ET-1 in DCB group was lower while NO was higher at 6, 24 h and 2 weeks after surgery ( P<0.05), there was no significant difference in P-selectin ( P>0.05). The ABI values in both groups increased, and that in DCB group were higher than SAB group at 6 and 12 months after surgery ( P<0.05). The lumen loss in DCB group at 6 and 12 months after surgery was significantly lower ( P<0.05). At 6 and 12 months, the primary patency of target lesions in the DCB group was 100.00% and 88.89%, which was higher than the 72.00% and 52.00% in the SAB group ( P<0.05); the CD-TLR rate in the DCB group was 11.11%, which was lower than 48.00% in the SAB group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:DCB comes with lower postoperative ISR in ASO patients of the lower extremity.
Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO), Buerger's disease, is a thromboocclusive inflammatory peripheral vascular disease with unknown etiology. There has been no highly effective treatment for it so far. Therefore, it is urgent to further explore the pathogenesis and effective treatment drugs. In this study, sodium laurate (0.2 mL; 10 mg/mL) was adopted to construct rat models of TAO to study the role of angiotensin I (Ang I) in cases with TAO. The TAO rats were randomly assigned to control group, TAO model group, group of TAO rats injected with adenovirus empty vector (TAO+vector group), and group of TAO rats injected with adenovirus overexpressing Ang I (TAO+oeAng I group). The local pathological signs of hind limbs of rats in each group were evaluated at 7, 14, and 21 days after modeling. At 21 days after modeling, the pathological changes of muscle tissues, oxidative stress level and expression of serum inflammation cytokines in the rats in each group were evaluated. The results showed that overexpression of Ang I strongly lowered the pathological signs, oxidative stress, levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-18 (IL-18). The expression of pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3), pro-caspase-1, and active caspase-1 in muscular tissues in TAO rats were also decreased. Therefore, overexpression of Ang I has a good therapeutic effect on TAO rats, and its mechanism is related to its antioxidation and inflammation reduce of vascular endothelial cells.
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown great potential in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, with fat being a more accessible source of MSCs. This study investigated the effect of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs-Ad) exosomes on T lymphocytes and its role in atherosclerosis (AS). METHODS The exosomes were preliminarily isolated hMSCs-Ad and co-cultured with human H9 T lymphocytes. The effects of hMSCs-Ad exosomes on the proliferation and apoptosis of H9 were examined by performing functional experiments. The serum lipid level and inflammatory factor level in tail vein of mice were measured by biochemical analyzer and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) respectively. RESULTS The hMSCs-Ad-derived exosomes up-regulate the expression of micro (mi)R-125b-1-3p in H9 and AS arterial tissues. miR-125b-1-3p shared a targeted binding site with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/lymphoma 11B gene (BCL11B). miR-125b-1-3p negatively regulated the expression of BCL11B in H9, and that knocking down BCL11B in H9 promoted its apoptosis. Injection of hMSCs-Ad-derived exosomes via the tail vein effectively reduced blood lipid and inflammatory factors, and that relieved the symptoms of AS in AS model mice. CONCLUSIONS miR-125b-1-3p was expressed in hMSCs-Ad exosomes and can promote T lymphocyte apoptosis and alleviate AS by down-regulating BCL11B expression. It provides potential molecular targets for the clinical treatment of AS.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the application value of personalized hybridization in the treatment of complex lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (LEASO).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 26 patients with complex multi-segmental LEASO at the Vascular Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from July 2016 to September 2018. A total of 17 males and 9 females, aged between 45 and 88 (66.4±10.8) years, were included in this study. Ankle brachial index (ABI), intermittent claudication distance, and primary patency rate were observed.Results:The success rate of hybrid surgery was 100% in 26 patients, no serious complications occurred during and after the operation, symptoms of lower limb ischemia were improved, and the examination of postoperative ABI was significantly improved compared with that before the operation. The average ABI of the affected limbs increased to 0.89±0.14, which was significantly higher than 0.41±0.46 before the operation, with statistically significant difference( t=5.151, P<0.05). The distance of intermittent claudication was (523±56) m, which was significantly longer than (132±46) m before the operation, and the difference was statistically significant( t=4.982, P<0.05). All 26 patients were followed up for 12 months. The primary patency rate was 92.30% (24/26), the limb salvage rate was 100% (26/26), and the survival rate was 100% (26/26). The primary patency rate was 76.92% (20/26), the limb salvage rate was 92.30% (24/26), and the survival rate was 100%(26/26). Conclusions:For complex LEASO involving multiple segments, individualized hybrid surgical approach is safe and effective with increased patient benefit.
Objective:To identify and quantitatively analyze serum protein expression in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) and control group by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ).Methods:Serum was collected from 30 patients with BCS and 30 patients with varicose veins of lower limbs, using iTRAQ technology to detect the significant differentially expressed proteins, to explore the differences in protein biological information and related signaling pathway.Results:A total of 143 kinds of differentially expressed proteins were detected. 76 proteins in the BCS group were significantly increased and 67 proteins were significantly decreased (all P<0.05). The main biological processes involved are defense response, vesicle-mediated transport, immune effect process, complement activation and blood agglutination (all P<0.05). Conclusion:ITRAQ technology is used to identify the differential proteins between BCS group and control group, Some proteins may be specific serum biomarkers for the diagnosis of BCS, and these proteins provide new directions for the study of the pathogenesis of BCS.
