In recent years, the incidence of obesity has been rapidly increasing, greatly elevating the incidence of hypertension, heart disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and other diseases. Reducing the incidence of obesity has become the focus of global concern. There is an urgent need to find effective and safe treatment method. More and more evidence support the efficacy of auricular acupoint therapy for obesity. It has the advantages of safety, effectiveness, convenience, and cheap. This article intends to discuss the research status of auricular acupoint therapy for obesity based on theoretical development, mechanism exploration, and technical innovation in order to promote the clinical application of auricular acupoint therapy for obesity. At present, with the help of multiple disciplines, inheriting and enriching the theoretical connotation of auricular point therapy for obesity, confirming its clinical effectiveness and safety, clarifying its effect mechanism in the treatment of obesity, and improving the traditional auricular acupoint therapy are feasible directions to promote auricular point therapy in the treatment of obesity, and it can make auricular point therapy have a broader application prospect.

In acute lung injury, two subsets of lung macrophages exist in the alveoli: tissue-resident alveolar macrophages (AMs) and monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (MDMs).However, it is unclear whether these 2 subsets of macrophages have different functions and characteristics during the recovery phase. RNA-sequencing of AMs and MDMs from the recovery period of LPS-induced lung injury mice revealed their differences in proliferation, cell death, phagocytosis, inflammation and tissue repair. Using flow cytometry, we found that AMs showed a higher ability to proliferate, whereas MDMs expressed a larger amount of cell death. We also compared the ability of phagocytosing apoptotic cells and activating adaptive immunity and found that AMs have a stronger ability to phagocytose, while MDMs are the cells that activate lymphocytes during the resolving phase. By testing surface markers, we found that MDMs were more prone to the M1 phenotype, but expressed a higher level of pro-repairing genes. Finally, analysis of a publicly available set of single-cell RNA-sequencing data on bronchoalveolar lavage cells from patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection validated the double-sided role of MDMs. Blockade of inflammatory MDM recruitment using CCR2 −/− mice effectively attenuates lung injury. Therefore, AMs and MDMs exhibited large differences during recovery. AMs are long-lived M2-like tissue-resident macrophages that have a strong ability to proliferate and phagocytose. MDMs are a paradoxical group of macrophages that promote the repair of tissue damage despite being strongly pro-inflammatory early in infection, and they may undergo cell death as inflammation fades. Preventing the massive recruitment of inflammatory MDMs or promoting their transition to pro-repairing phenotype may be a new direction for the treatment of acute lung injury.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and risk factors for recurrence of epithelial borderline ovarian tumors (BOT). Methods The data of 210 BOT patients from January 2001 to December 2015 in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results The mean age of 210 BOT patients was(41±16)years old including 68.1 %(143/210)patients of stage IA,and 31.9 %(67/210)patients>stage IA.Twenty-three patients had recurrence and the recurrence rate was 11.3 % (23/204); Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in relapse rate among BOT patients with regard to age (P =0.007), stage (P =0.009), microemulsion pattern (P =0.024) and operative mode(P= 0.025). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that micropapillary pattern (OR=0.153, 95 % CI 0.044-0.535), the age (≤40 years old) (OR= 0.245, 95 % CI 0.088-0.686) and high stage (OR=3.502, 95 % CI 1.360-9.020) were risk factors for recurrence in BOT patients. Conclusions BOT mainly occurs in young women of child-bearing age,who are at an early stage and have a good prognosis. The patients who belong to 40 years old or below, the staging >ⅠAand micropapillary pattern would be easy to recur.

Objective To investigate the biological characteristics of monoclonal antibodies against human liver cancer stem cells and its therapeutic effect in combination with cisplatin in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Cell culture in serum?free medium and PKH26 staining were used to determine the existence of cancer stem cells in human liver Bel7402?V3 cell line. The co?expression of antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody ( McAb ) 15D2 and epithelial specific antigen ( ESA ) and PKH26?positive cells in the Bel7402?V3 cells were detected by immunofluorescence assay. Serum?free suspension culture was used to detect the self?renewal ability of 15D2?positive Bel7402?V3 cells sorted by flow cytometry and the effect of 15D2 on the self?renewal ability of Bel7402?V3 cells. The effect of 15D2 on cisplatin resistance in the cells was examined by CCK8 method. The inhibitory effect of 15D2 combined with cisplatin on the transplanted tumor growth in mice was also observed. Results Single PKH26?positive cells were observed in the Bel7402?V3 cell spheroids cultured for 11 days. Immunofluorescence assay showed that the 15D2?recognized antigen could be conjugated with PKH26 and ESA and co?localized on Bel7402?V3 cells. The spheroid formation rate of 15D2?positive cells in serum?free medium was significantly higher than that of 15D2?negative cells [(30.4±3.4)% vs. (8.8±1.8)%,P<0.01]. The cisplatin resistance of 15D2?positive cells was obviously higher than that of 15D2?negative cells (IC50:1.014μmol/L vs. 0.365μmol/L). McAb 15D2 significantly suppressed the spheroid formation of Bel7402?V3 cells, with an inhibition rate of 37.5%. McAb 15D2 also notably inhibited the cisplatin resistance of Bel7302?V3 cells. The IC50 was 0.211μg/ml in the 15D2 group and 0. 325 μg/ml in the control group. The mouse experiment showed that the tumor growth rates of 50 mg/kg, 25 mg/kg and 12.5 mg/kg 15D2?treatment groups were 82.6%, 71.4% and 60.0%, respectively; that of the 50 mg/kg 15D2 + cisplatin group was 91. 0%, and that of the cisplatin monotherapy was 56. 7%. Conclusion McAb 15D2 is a functional monoclonal antibody targeting liver cancer stem cells, which could be a potential monoclonal antibody drug for the stem cell?targeted therapy of liver cancer.
