[PMID: 37923409 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thyroid cancer has been increasingly prevalent in recent years. The main diagnostic methods for thyroid are B-ultrasound scan, serum detection and puncture detection. However, these methods are invasive and complex. It is a pressing need to develop non-invasive or minimally invasive methods for thyroid cancer diagnosis. Fluorescence method as a non-invasive detection method has attracted much attention. Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is a common enzyme in the human body, and many diseases affect its reduction. We found that BChE is also a marker for thyroid cancer. Therefore, it is of certain clinical value to explore the expression of BChE in thyroid cancer cells through a customized fluorescent probe to provide valuable experimental data and clues for studying the expression of thyroid cancer marker to reflect thyroid status. RESULTS In this study, we customized a fluorescent probe named Kang-BChE, which is easy to synthesize with a high yield. The experimental results show that the probe Kang-BChE can detect BChE in the linear range of 0-900 U L-1 (R2 = 0.9963), and the detection limit is as low as 3.93 U L-1 (λex/em = 550/689 nm). In addition, Kang-BChE probes have low cytotoxicity, good specificity, and can completely eliminate interference from acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Kang-BChE showed excellent stability in the detection of complex biological samples in serum recovery experiments (95.64-103.12 %). This study was the first time using Kang-BChE to study the low expression of BChE in thyroid cancer cells (Tpc-1 cells). In addition, we observed that H2O2 concentration in Tpc-1 cells was positively correlated with BChE activity. SIGNIFICANCE Kang-BChE is expected to be an important tool for monitoring the change of BChE content in complex biological environments due to its excellent performance. Kang-BChE can also be used to explore the influence of molecules in more organisms on the change of BChE content due to its excellent anti-interference ability. We expect that Kang-BChE can play a significant role in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer.

Brain-targeted nanoreactors prevent the development of organophosphate-induced delayed neurological damage. J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:256.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Organophosphate (OP)-induced delayed neurological damage is attributed to permanent neuropathological lesions caused by irreversible OP-neurocyte interactions, without potent brain-targeted etiological antidotes to date. The development of alternative therapies to achieve intracerebral OP detoxification is urgently needed. METHODS We designed a brain-targeted nanoreactor by integrating enzyme immobilization and biomimetic membrane camouflaging protocols with careful characterization, and then examined its blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability both in vitro and in vivo. Subsequently, the oxidative stress parameters, neuroinflammatory factors, apoptotic proteins and histopathological changes were measured and neurobehavioral tests were performed. RESULTS The well-characterized nanoreactors exerted favourable BBB penetration capability both in vitro and in vivo, significantly inhibiting OP-induced intracerebral damage. At the cellular and tissue levels, nanoreactors obviously blocked oxidative stress, cellular apoptosis, inflammatory reactions and brain histopathological damage. Furthermore, nanoreactors radically prevented the occurrence of OP-induced delayed cognitive deficits and psychiatric abnormality. CONCLUSION The nanoreactors significantly prevented the development of OP-induced delayed neurological damage, suggesting a potential brain-targeted etiological strategy to attenuate OP-related delayed neurological and neurobehavioral disorders.

[PMID: 35844468 PMCID: PMC9282978 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9655423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To explore the application effect of the Shewhart control chart in controlling adverse events in patients with severe acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (AOPP) undergoing blood purification. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 102 patients with severe AOPP admitted to the hospital between January 2020 and December 2021, including 47 cases in the control group and 55 cases in the observation group. The control group was given routine emergency nursing, while the observation group was given emergency nursing under the guidance of the Shewhart control chart on the basis of the control group. The specialized operations, basic operations, specialized theory, and basic theory of nursing staffs were scored to compare the comprehensive nursing quality. The total incidence of adverse nursing events in both groups was statistically analyzed. The dosage of atropine, disappearance time of muscarinic symptoms, recovery time of CHE activity to 60%, and hospitalization time in both groups were recorded. The total incidence of complications in both groups was statistically analyzed. The satisfaction of family members was statistically analyzed by a satisfaction questionnaire. Results The scores of specialized operations, basic operations, specialized theory, and basic theory of nursing staffs in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05), total incidence of adverse nursing events was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05), dosage of atropine, disappearance time of muscarinic symptoms, recovery time of CHE activity to 60%, and hospitalization time were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05), total incidence of complications was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05), and scores of nursing attitude, communication process, psychological relief, and drug preparation were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The Shewhart control chart can effectively improve the clinical effect, comprehensive nursing quality, and satisfaction of patients with severe AOPP and effectively reduce complications and adverse events.
