Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine has been used to treat diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) for a long time. However, the underlying mechanism of Radix arnebiae seu lithospermi ointment (RAS-ointment) has not been revealed. Effects of RAS-ointment treatment were observed in DFU patients. The endogenous competitive RNA mechanism was constructed based on micro-array sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. RT-PCR was used to detected the expression of genes in DFU ulcerated skins and non-ulcerated skins. Dual luciferase and RT-PCR experiments were used to investigate the endogenous competitive RNA mechanism. Based on micro-array sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, we found that SNHG12/NFYC-AS1, hsa-miR-199a-5p and S100A8/S100A7/XDH might form an endogenous competitive RNA mechanism. RT-PCR assay shown that SNHG12, NFYC-AS1, S100A8, S100A7 and XDH were significantly up-regulated, while hsa-miR-199a-5p was significantly down-regulated in DFU ulcerated skins (N = 10) compared with non-ulcerated skins (N = 10). Dual luciferase and RT-PCR experiments showed that SNHG12 or NFYC-AS1 up-regulated the expression of S100A8, S100A7 and XDH by inhibiting hsa-miR-199a-5p in a direct binding way. After 35 days of RAS-ointment treatment, the wound healing of DFU patients was substantially improved and the expression of S100A7 and XDH were reduced expression in DFU patients. In addition, the monomer composition of RAS-ointment, 49070_FLUKA or auraptenol inhibited the expression of S100A7 and XDH in Te317.sk cells. In conclusion, RAS-ointment may be used as an adjunctive therapy for DFU patients.

Shen JD, Chen SJ, Chen HY, Chiu KY, Chen YH, Chen WC. Review of Animal Models to Study Urinary Bladder Function. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10121316. [PMID: 34943231 PMCID: PMC8698391 DOI: 10.3390/biology10121316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Revised: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 12/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary The treatment of urinary bladder dysfunction requires the knowledge of bladder function, which involves physiology, pathology, and even psychology. Several animal models are available to study a variety of bladder disorders. These models include animals from rodents, such as mice and rats, to nonhuman primates, such as rabbits, felines, canines, pigs, and mini pigs. This review adapted animal models to study bladder function according to facility, priority, and disease. Abstract The urinary bladder (UB) serves as a storage and elimination organ for urine. UB dysfunction can cause multiple symptoms of failure to store urine or empty the bladder, e.g., incontinence, frequent urination, and urinary retention. Treatment of these symptoms requires knowledge on bladder function, which involves physiology, pathology, and even psychology. There is no ideal animal model for the study of UB function to understand and treat associated disorders, as the complexity in humans differs from that of other species. However, several animal models are available to study a variety of other bladder disorders. Such models include animals from rodents to nonhuman primates, such as mice, rats, rabbits, felines, canines, pigs, and mini pigs. For incontinence, vaginal distention might mimic birth trauma and can be measured based on leak point pressure. Using peripheral and central models, inflammation, bladder outlet obstruction, and genetic models facilitated the study of overactive bladder. However, the larger the animal model, the more difficult the study is, due to the associated animal ethics issues, laboratory facility, and budget. This review aims at facilitating adapted animal models to study bladder function according to facility, priority, and disease.
