Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to elucidate the role of Interleukin-11 (IL-11) in hepatic fibrosis (HF) and its potential as a therapeutic target for HF treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated IL-11 expression in patients with varying degrees of liver injury through ELISA and immunohistochemistry. A CCl4-induced HF mouse model was constructed to study IL-11 expression and cell apoptosis using Western blotting (WB) and other techniques. The expression of IL-11 was silenced using rAAV8 in the mouse model. In vitro stimulation of hepatic stellate cells (LX-2) with TGF-β1, and of LO-2 cells with exogenous IL-11, were performed. Cell supernatants of TGF-β1-stimulated LX-2 were used to culture LO-2 cells, with apoptosis monitored via flow cytometry and WB. KEY FINDINGS Increased IL-11 levels were observed in patients and the HF mouse model, with silencing reducing IL-11 expression. In vitro experiments revealed increased endogenous IL-11 in TGF-β1-stimulated LX-2 cells and an increase in apoptotic index, IL11RA, and gp130 in IL-11-stimulated LO-2 cells. Cell apoptosis was reduced in the siRNA/IL11, siRNA/IL11RA, and anti-IL11 groups. WB and immunohistochemistry results showed upregulated p-JNK, p-ERK, and p-P53 expressions in the CCl4-induced HF mouse model and IL-11-treated LO-2 cells. SIGNIFICANCE Our findings suggest IL-11 enhances LX-2 cell activation and proliferation, and promotes LO-2 cell apoptosis through JNK/ERK signaling pathways. This suggests that targeting IL-11 secretion may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for HF, providing a foundation for its clinical application in HF treatment.

Abstract
Hepatic fibrosis (HF) is a reversible wound-healing response characterized by excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition and secondary to persistent chronic injury. Bromodomain protein 4 (BRD4) commonly functions as a "reader" to regulate epigenetic modifications involved in various biological and pathological events, but the mechanism of HF remains unclear. In this study, we established a CCl4-induced HF model and spontaneous recovery model in mice and found aberrant BRD4 expression, which was consistent with the results in human hepatic stellate cells (HSCs)- LX2 cells in vitro. Subsequently, we found that distriction and inhibition of BRD4 restrained TGFβ-induced trans-differentiation of LX2 cells into activated, proliferative myofibroblasts and accelerated apoptosis, and BRD4 overexpression blocked MDI-induced LX2 cells inactivation and promoted the proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of inactivated cells. Additionally, adeno-associated virus serotype 8-loaded short hairpin RNA-mediated BRD4 knockdown in mice significantly attenuated CCl4-induced fibrotic responses including HSCs activation and collagen deposition. Mechanistically, BRD4 deficiency inhibited PLK1 expression in activated LX2 cells, and ChIP and Co-IP assays revealed that BRD4 regulation of PLK1 was dependent on P300-mediated acetylation modification for H3K27 on the PLK1 promoter. In conclusion, BRD4 deficiency in the liver alleviates CCl4-induced HF in mice, and BRD4 participates in the activation and reversal of HSCs through positively regulating the P300/H3K27ac/PLK1 axis, providing a potential insight for HF therapy.

Abstract
Alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) is an early stage of alcohol-related liver disease characterized by abnormal lipid metabolism in hepatocytes. To date, to our knowledge, there have been no effective strategies for preventing or treating alcohol-related liver disease besides alcohol abstinence. Berberine (BBR) is the main bioactive ingredient extracted from traditional Chinese medicines, such as Coptis and Scutellaria, which protect liver function and relieve liver steatosis. However, the potential role of BBR in AFLD remains unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the protective effects of BBR against Gao-binge model-induced AFLD in 6- to 8-week-old C57BL/6J male mice in vivo and ethyl alcohol (EtOH)-induced alpha mouse liver 12 (AML-12) cells in vitro. The results showed that BBR (200 mg/kg) attenuated alcoholic liver injury and suppressed lipid accumulation and metabolism disorders in vivo. Consistently, BBR effectively inhibited the expression of sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 1C, sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 2, fatty acid synthase, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoenzymeA reductase in EtOH-stimulated AML-12 cells in vitro and promoted the expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in EtOH-fed mice and EtOH-treated AML-12 cells. Furthermore, SIRT1 silencing attenuated the hepatic steatosis alleviation potential of BBR treatment. Mechanistically, molecular docking revealed the binding effect of BBR and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). The results of further studies showed that a decrease in AMPK activity was accompanied by a significant inhibition of SIRT1 expression. SIRT1 silencing attenuated the protective effect of BBR, whereas the inhibition of its expression had no apparent effect on AMPK phosphorylation, suggesting that SIRT1 acts downstream of AMPK in AFLD. Collectively, BBR ameliorated abnormal lipid metabolism and alleviated EtOH-induced liver injury via the AMPK/SIRT1 pathway in AFLD mice.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a wound-healing response that results from various chronic damages. If the causes of damage are not removed or effective treatments are not given in a timely manner, it will progress to cirrhosis, even liver cancer. Currently, there are no specific medical therapies for liver fibrosis. Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene therapy, one of the frontiers of modern medicine, has gained more attention in many fields due to its high safety profile, low immunogenicity, long-term efficacy in mediating gene expression, and increasingly known tropism. Notably, increasing evidence suggests a promising therapeutic potential for AAV-mediated gene therapy in different liver fibrosis models, which helps to correct abnormally changed target genes in the process of fibrosis and improve liver fibrosis at the molecular level. Moreover, the addition of cell-specific promoters to the genome of recombinant AAV helps to limit gene expression in specific cells, thereby producing better therapeutic efficacy in liver fibrosis. However, animal models are considered to be powerless predictive of tissue tropism, immunogenicity, and genotoxic risks in humans. Thus, AAV-mediated gene therapy will face many challenges. This review systemically summarizes the recent advances of AAV-mediated gene therapy in liver fibrosis, especially focusing on cellular and molecular mechanisms of transferred genes, and presents prospective challenges.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have described and recorded abnormal root morphology; however, most of these studies were based on two-dimensional periapical or panoramic radiographs, and only a few studies have quantified it. We aimed to combine two-dimensional periapical radiographs and three-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to conduct qualitative judgments and quantitative analyses of normal and conical roots, and explore the clinical diagnostic method of normal and conical roots based on intraoral radiographs and CBCT. Methods The conical root was identified visually on periapical radiographs as the clinical gold standard. All teeth were divided into the cone-rooted teeth (CRT) or normal-rooted teeth (NRT) groups. Furthermore, differences in root length (RL), root surface area (RSA), and root volume (RV) of conical and normal roots in the maxillary premolars on CBCT were compared. Receiver operator characteristic curves were generated, and the area under the curve (AUC) and cut-off values were calculated to evaluate the diagnostic value of RV, RSA, RV/RL, and RSA/RL. Results The RSAs of NRT and CRT were 236.88 ± 27.93 mm2 and 207.98 ± 27.80 mm2, respectively (P = 0.000). The mean RV in the CRT group was lower than that in the NRT group, and the difference was statistically significant (253.40 ± 41.98 mm3 vs. 316.93 ± 49.89 mm3, P = 0.000). The RSA and RV of conical roots in single root premolars were 12.29% and 19.33% less than those of normal roots, respectively. The AUC values of RSA/RL and RV/RL were 0.87 and 0.89, respectively, and the best cut-off values were 19.61 for RSA/RL (if RSA/RL was < 19.61, the teeth were considered CRT) and 24.05 for RV/RL (if RV/RL was < 24.05, the teeth were considered CRT). Conclusions CBCT has significant diagnostic value in the clinical evaluation of conical roots. RSA/RL and RV/RL were the best parameters with the largest AUC and high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a reversible wound healing reaction characterized by abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in response to liver injury. Recent studies have shown that it can be epigenetically regulated, especially by microRNAs (miRNAs). It has been acknowledged that activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is a pivotal step in the initiation and progression of liver fibrosis. Notably, our results showed that miR-195-3p was increased in HSCs isolated from CCl4-treated mice and that the increase was more pronounced as the degree of liver fibrosis increased. Moreover, treatment of LX-2 cells, a human immortalized hepatic stellate cell line, with TGF-β1 resulted remarkable upregulation of miR-195-3p. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments have suggested that the increased levels of miR-195-3p inhibit the expression of phosphatase and tension homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), a negative regulator of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in liver fibrosis, thereby contributing to HSC activation and proliferation and promoting the expression of profibrotic genes, such as α-SMA and collagen I, in LX-2 cells, which accelerates the accumulation of fibrous extracellular matrix deposition in the liver, while knockdown of miR-195-3p induced the opposite effect. Taken together, these results provide evidence for the harmful role of miR-195-3p in CCl4-treated mouse liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis, a chronic inflammatory healing reaction, progresses to hepatocirrhosis without effective intervention. Hesperetin derivative (HD-16), a monomer compound derived from hesperitin, exerts anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective effects against a spectrum of liver diseases. However, the anti-fibrotic potential of HD-16 in liver fibrosis and its underlying mechanism have not yet been elucidated. In this study, we investigated the anti-fibrotic effect of HD-16 on mouse liver fibrosis induced by CCl4 and on LX-2 cells (human immortalized HSCs) stimulated by TGF-β1, in vivo and in vitro. HD-16 exerted an anti-fibrotic effect via regulation of the AMPK/SIRT3 pathway. Pharmacodynamic results showed that HD-16 alleviated the degree of injury and inflammation in CCl4-induced mouse liver fibrosis. Consistently, HD-16 also effectively inhibited the expression of α-SMA, Col1α1, Col3α1, and TIMP-1 in TGF-β1-activated LX-2 cells. Mechanistically, HD-16 promoted SIRT3 expression and activity in fibrotic liver and activated LX-2 cells. Furthermore, SIRT3 depletion attenuated the anti-fibrotic effects of HD-16. Intriguingly, HD-16 increased AMPK phosphorylation, whereas inhibition of SIRT3 expression did not affect AMPK phosphorylation. In contrast, AMPK silencing suppressed SIRT3 expression, suggesting that SIRT3 is a downstream target of AMPK in liver fibrosis. Overall, HD-16 attenuated CCl4-induced liver inflammation and fibrosis by activating the AMPK/SIRT3 pathway, and HD-16 may be a potential anti-fibrotic compound in the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the accuracy of periapical film in evaluating the infrabone root surface area of single-root teeth with different types of resorption of the alveolar bone. METHODS In this study, the medical records and imaging data of patients in Department of Periodontology of Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from January 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively analysed. The involved teeth were divided into two groups: horizontal bone loss group and vertical bone loss group. Digital three-dimensional models of teeth were segmented from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) data, and the percentage of the infrabone root surface area was measured. While the percentage of the residual alveolar bone was measured on the periapical films. The correlation of the two percentages were analyzed, and the differences between the two percentages of each group were compared. RESULTS Thirty-two patients and 79 single-root teeth were involved totally, in whom there were 25 men and 7 women, aged 26-60 years, and of which there were 41 teeth in the horizontal bone loss group and 38 teeth in the vertical bone loss group. The remaining alveolar bone height percentages were 45.13%-90.39% on the periapical films, and at the same time, the infrabone root surface area percentages were 36.27%-93.03% on CBCT. The residual alveolar bone height percentage of the horizontal bone loss group was not subject to normal distribution, so the residual alveolar bone height percentage and the infrabone root surface area percentage were analyzed by Wilcoxon matched pair rank test (P=0.382), and the result showed no statistically significant difference. The mean value of difference value of the two measurements was 0, and the consistency limit of 95 % was -9.7%-9.8%, between the clinical consistency limit (-15%-15%).The residual alveolar bone height percentage and the infrabone root surface area percentage of the vertical bone loss group were analyzed by paired T test (P< 0.001), and the result showed statistically significant difference. The mean value of difference value of the two measurements was 7.2 %, and the consistency limit of 95% was -13.1%-27.5%, beyond clinical consistency limit (-15%-15%). CONCLUSION For the teeth with horizontal bone loss, the proximal residual alveo-lar bone height reflected on the periapical films could show the infrabone root surface area relatively accurately. For the teeth with vertical bone loss, the periapical films could not show the degree of periodontal tissue loss accurately, and it would underestimate the extent of bone destruction usually, so CBCT might be taken to show the bone destruction condition of this type of teeth if necessary.

Abstract
The human beta E-globin gene from HbE (beta 26 Glu-->Lys, G-->A) homozygote, a common hemoglobinopathy in China, was injected into the pronuclei of fertilized mouse eggs to prepare transgenic mice. A transgenic mouse bearing 16 copies of construct 5'.HS2 beta E has characteristics of typical transgenic mice. It has been verified that the presence of erythroid enhancer 5'HS2 is necessary for the high level expression of human beta E-globin gene in transgenic mice, indicating that the cis-element 5'HS2 is effective for abnormal beta-globin gene as well. Although the expression level of beta-globin gene was copy number-dependent as reported in previous studies, the average expression level per gene copy (12.1%) in transgenic mice bearing many copies of 5'HS2 beta E (16 copies) was significantly lower than that (79.7%) in transgenic mice bearing fewer copies of the gene (2 copies). The possible mechanisms for this decrease of expression are discussed. Novel hemoglobin tetramers which presumably consist of human beta E-globin chains and mouse endogenous alpha-globin chains have been assembled in transgenic mice.

Abstract
The G gamma:A gamma ratios of Hb F were determined in 331 newborn babies of the Man ethnic group in Liaoning Province, P.R. China, using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; in 27 cases they were also determined by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. The results showed that a high G gamma value (> 80%) was present in four cases (1.21%) and low G gamma values (30-48%) in six cases (1.81%); not a single case with the A gamma T [A gamma 75(E19)Ile->Thr] chain was found. Gene mapping analysis demonstrated that two babies with high G gamma values had the -G gamma-G gamma-/-G gamma-A gamma- (0.60%), and two others the -G gamma-AG gamma-A gamma-/-G gamma-A gamma- (0.60%) arrangements. Two of the four babies with low G gamma values were identified as -A gamma-A gamma-/-G gamma-A gamma- (0.60%) and the other two as -GA gamma-/-G gamma-A gamma- (0.60%). The genotype -A gamma-A gamma- has not been reported before in Chinese.

Abstract
We previously reported that myleran, a cell cycle nonspecific drug, can stimulate gamma-globin gene expression in anemic adult rhesus monkeys. This finding prompted us to treat two patients with severe beta-thalassemia with myleran. Both patients received an initial course of therapy, constantly of myleran at a dosage of 0.2 mg/kg/d for 9 days followed by 0.15 mg/kg/d for the next 11 days. One patient received an additional 20-day course of myleran at a dosage of 0.2 mg/kg/d beginning 44 days after completion of the first course. No severe ill effects related to the drug were observed during or after drug administration. After 20 days of myleran treatment, levels of HbF and reticulocytes increased in both patients and level of F cells increased in patient 1. In patient 1, Hb concentration rose from 42g/L (9 days after transfusion) before treatment to a maximum of 65g/L afterward; in patient 2, it rose from 74g/L to a maximum of 106g/L. A value of 15g/L above baseline lasted for about 5 months in both patients. Hypomethylation of bone marrow DNA near the gamma-globin gene was demonstrated in patient 1.
