Most cancers are currently incurable, partly due to abnormal post-translational modifications (PTMs). In this study, we initially used multiple myeloma (MM) as a working model and found that SUMOylation activating enzyme subunit 1 (SAE1) promotes the malignancy of MM. Through proteome microarray analysis, SAE1 was identified as a potential target for bioactive colcemid or its derivative colchicine. Elevated levels of SAE1 were associated with poor clinical survival and increased MM proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, SAE1 directly SUMOylated and upregulated the total protein expression of p27, leading to LLPS-mediated nuclear export of p27. Our study also demonstrated the involvement of SAE1 in other types of cancer cells, and provided the first monomer crystal structure of SAE1 and its key binding model with colchicine. Colchicine also showed promising results in the Patient-Derived Tumor Xenograft (PDX) model. Furthermore, a controlled clinical trial with 56 MM patients demonstrated the clinical efficacy of colchicine. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism by which tumor cells evade p27-induced cellular growth arrest through p27 SUMOylation-mediated nuclear export. SAE1 may serve as a promising therapeutic target, and colchicine may be a potential treatment option for multiple types of cancer in clinical settings.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)is a chronic metabolic disease that can lead to the damage of multiple tissues and organs throughout the body.Stimulator of interferon genes(STING)is an endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein that acts as an indirect cytoplasmic DNA sensor.The activation of the STING signaling pathway may be involved in T2DM and its microvascular complications through various mechanisms.This article reviews the research progress in the mechanism of STING in T2DM and its microvascular complications.

Anti-tumor traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of clinic application, in which the star molecules have always been the hotspot of modern drug research, but they are limited by the solubility, stability, targeting, bioactivity or toxicity of the monomer components of traditional Chinese medicine anti-tumor star molecules and other pharmacokinetic problems, which hinders the traditional Chinese medicine anti-tumor star molecules for further clinical translation and application. Currently, the nanosystems prepared by supramolecular technologies such as molecular self-assembly and nanomaterial encapsulation have broader application prospects in improving the anti-tumor effect of active components of traditional Chinese medicine, which has attracted extensive attention from scholars at home and abroad. In this paper, we systematically review the research progress in preparation of supramolecular nano-systems from anti-tumor star molecule of traditional Chinese medicine, and summarize the two major categories and ten small classes of carrier-free and carrier-based supramolecular nanosystems and their research cases, and the future development direction is put forward. The purpose of this paper is to provide reference for the research and clinical transformation of using supramolecular technology to improve the clinical application of anti-tumor star molecule of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of testicular relapse in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:Clinical data including the age, time from initial diagnosis to recurrence, relapse site, and therapeutic effect of 37 pediatric ALL with testicular relapse and treated in Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between November 2011 and December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were grouped according to different clinical data. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the overall survival (OS) rate and event free survival (EFS) rate for univariate analysis, and Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used to evaluate the influencing factors of OS rate and EFS rate for multivariate analysis.Results:The age at initial diagnosis of 37 pediatric testicular relapse patients was (5±3) years and the time from initial diagnosis to testicular recurrence was (37±15) months. The follow-up time was 43 (22, 56) months. Twenty-three patients (62%) were isolated testis relapse. The 5-year OS rate and EFS rate of the 37 relapsed children were (60±9) % and (50±9) % respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the 2-year EFS rate in the group of patients with time from initial diagnosis to testicular recurrence >28 months was significantly higher than those ≤28 months ((69±10)% vs. (11±11)%, P<0.05), 2-year EFS rate of the isolated testicular relapse group was significantly higher than combined relapse group ((66±11)% vs. (20±13) %, P<0.05), 2-year EFS rate of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell treatment after relapse group was significantly higher than without CAR-T cell treatment after relapse group ((78±10)% vs. (15±10)%, P<0.05). ETV6-RUNX1 was the most common genetic aberration in testicular relapsed ALL (38%, 14/37). The 4-year OS and EFS rate of patients with ETV6-RUNX1 positive were (80±13) % and (64±15) %, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified relapse occurred≤28 months after first diagnosis ( HR=3.09, 95% CI 1.10-8.72), combined relapse ( HR=4.26, 95% CI 1.34-13.52) and CAR-T cell therapy after relapse ( HR=0.15,95% CI 0.05-0.51) were independent prognostic factors for 2-year EFS rate (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The outcome of testicular relapse in pediatric ALL was poor. They mainly occurred 3 years after initial diagnosis. ETV6-RUNX1 is the most common abnormal gene.Patients with ETV6-RUNX1 positive often have a favorable outcome. Early relapse and combined relapse indicate unfavorable prognosis, while CAR-T cell therapy could significantly improve the survival rate of children with testicular recurrence.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and long-term prognostic factors of relapsed pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:Clinical data including the age, time from initial diagnosis to relapse, relapse site, and molecular biological features of 217 relapsed ALL children primarily treated by the Chinese Children's Leukemia Group (CCLG)-ALL 2008 protocol in Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between April 2008 and April 2015 were collected and analyzed in this retrospective cohort study. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the overall survival (OS) rate and event free survival (EFS) rate for univariate analysis, and Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used to evaluate the influencing factors of OS rate and EFS rate for multivariate analysis.Results:The age at initial diagnosis of 217 relapsed patients was 5 (3, 7) years. There were 135 males and 82 females. The time from initial diagnosis to relapse of 217 children was 22 (10, 39) months. After relapse, 136 out of 217 children (62.7%) received treatment and the follow-up time was 65 (47, 90) months. The 5-year OS rate and EFS rate of the 136 relapsed children were (37±4) % and (26±4) %, respectively. The predicted 10-year OS rate and EFS rate were (35±5) % and (20±4) %, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the 5-year OS rate in the group of patients with late relapse (43 cases) was significantly higher than those with very early (54 cases) and early relapse (39 cases) ((72±7)% vs. (16±5)%, (28±8)%, χ2=35.91, P<0.05), 5-year OS rate of the isolated extramedullary relapse group (20 cases) was significantly higher than isolated bone marrow relapse group (102 cases) and combined relapse group (14 cases) ((69±11)% vs. (31±5)%, (29±12)%, χ2=9.14, P<0.05), 5-year OS rate of high-risk group (80 cases) was significantly lower than standard-risk group (10 cases) and intermediate-risk group (46 cases) ((20±5)% vs. (90±10)%, (54±8)%, χ2=32.88, P<0.05). ETV6::RUNX1 was the most common fusion gene (13.2%, 18/136). The predicted 10-year OS rate of relapsed children with positive ETV6::RUNX1 was significantly higher than those without ETV6::RUNX1 (118 cases) ((83±9)% vs. (26±5)%, χ2=14.04, P<0.05). The 5-year OS for those accepted hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after relapse (42 cases) was higher than those without HSCT (94 cases) ((56±8)% vs. (27±5)%, χ2=15.18, P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified very early/early relapse ( HR=3.91, 95% CI 1.96-7.79; HR=4.15, 95% CI 1.99-8.67), bone marrow relapse including isolated bone marrow relapse and combined relapse ( HR=6.50, 95% CI 2.58-16.34; HR=5.19, 95% CI 1.78-15.16), with ETV6::RUNX1 ( HR=0.23, 95% CI 0.07-0.74) and HSCT after relapse ( HR=0.24, 95% CI 0.14-0.43) as independent prognostic factors for OS (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Relapsed pediatric ALL mainly occurs very early and often affects bone marrow, which confer poor outcome. ETV6::RUNX1 is the most common genetic aberration with a favorable outcome. HSCT could rescue the outcome of relapsed children, though the survival rate is still poor.

Objective To analyze risk factors and pathogenic characteristics of intestinal colonization of carbape-nem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)in patients from intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A total of 392 ICU pa-tients who underwent intestinal CRE screening in a tertiary hospital in Changzhou from March to December,2023 were divided into the colonization group(n=42)and the non-colonization group(n=350)according to the screening results.Clinical data of patients,including age,gender,underlying diseases,malignant tumors,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,infection before the last screening,antimicrobial use,and invasive procedures were collected for the analysis on risk factors and pathogenicity.Results Among 42 patients with positive CRE screening results,44 CRE strains were detected,mainly Klebsiella pneumoniae(65.91％),followed by Escherichia coli(15.91％)and En-terobacter cloacae(13.64％).The average time from admission in ICU to positive screening results of intestinal CRE in the colonization group was 14 days.Long term use of carbapenem antibiotics(OR=1.47,95％CI:1.31-1.65),mechanical ventilation(OR=1.14,95％CI:1.06-1.22),and Enterobacterales infection(OR=10.10,95％CI:3.28-32.09)were independent risk factors for intestinal CRE colonization.Patients who received carbap-enem antibiotics for ≥15 days(x2=167.52,P＜0.001)and those who received mechanical ventilation for ≥15 days(x2=101.03,P＜0.001)had higher risks for intestinal CRE colonization.Conclusion In clinical practice,it is necessary to improve pathogen detection,treat Enterobacterales infection timely,choose carbapenem antibiotics carefully,shorten treatment course,actively evaluate indications for mechanical ventilation,and wean off ventilator timely.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To study the clinical features and risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage in extremely preterm (EPT) infants.Methods:From February 2018 to January 2022, EPT infants admitted to NICU of our hospital and diagnosed with pulmonary hemorrhage were retrospectively assigned into the observation group and those without pulmonary hemorrhage were assigned into the control group. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to compare the clinical features and determine risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage in EPT infants.Results:A total of 114 EPT infants were included, including 28 cases (24.6%) in the observation group with pulmonary hemorrhage and 86 cases in the control group. Pulmonary hemorrhage mainly occurred within the first week after birth. Univariate analysis showed that the observation group had higher incidences of following events than the control group: birth asphyxia, delivery room intubation, severe respiratory distress syndrome, hyperglycemia, thrombocytopenia, severe acidosis, shock, score for neonatal acute physiology with perinatal extension-Ⅱ (SNAPPE-Ⅱ) ≥37 and the highest lactate level. Birth weight was lower in the observation group than the control group ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that SNAPPE-Ⅱ≥37, shock and hyperglycemia were risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage ( OR=4.081, 4.610 and 3.355, respectively, all P<0.05). The incidences of mortality and intracranial hemorrhage in the observation group were higher than the control group. The duration of mechanical ventilation in the observation group was longer than the control group ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed in the duration of nasal continuous positive airway pressure, assist mechanical ventilation and total oxygen use, the incidences of grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ bronchopulmonary dysplasia, retinopathy of prematurity and the length of hospital stay ( P>0.05). Conclusions:SNAPPE-Ⅱ≥37, shock and hyperglycemia are early risk factors for pulmonary hemorrhage in EPT infants. EPT infants with pulmonary hemorrhage have higher incidences of mortality and intracranial hemorrhage, requiring longer periods of mechanical ventilation.

In the outbreak of COVID-19,triage procedures based on epidemiology were implemented in a local hospital in Changsha to control the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and avoid healthcare-associated infection.This re-trospective study analyzed the data collected during the triage period and found that COVID-19 patients were en-riched 7 folds into the Section A designated for patients with obvious epidemiological history.On the other side,nearly triple amounts of visits were received at the Section B for patients without obvious epidemiological history.8 COVID-19 cases were spotted out of 247 suspected patients.More than 50％of the suspected patients were submi-tted to multiple rounds of nucleic acid analysis for SARS-CoV-2 infection.Of the 239 patients who were diagnosed as negative of the virus infection,188 were successfully revisited and none was reported as COVID-19 case.Of the 8 COVID-19 patients,3 were confirmed only after multiple rounds of nucleic acid analysis.Besides comorbidities,delayed sharing of epidemiological history added complexity to the diagnosis in practice.The triaging experience and strategy will be helpful for the control of infectious diseases in the future.

The alterations of serum biological endogenous chemicals in rats with phlegm dampness accumulation syndrome of prehypertension (PHT) were interfered by Banxia Baizhu Tianma decoction (BBT), and the metabolic regulatory pathway of BBT was clarified using serum metabonomics analysis. To replicate the rat model of prehypertension phlegm dampness syndrome, blood pressure, behavioral markers, and serum biochemical markers of rats were collected. BBT's effectiveness in controlling blood pressure and blood lipids was assessed, and changes in endogenous small molecules in rat serum were determined using UPLC-Q-Orbitrap MS metabolic analysis. The results showed that BBT could regulate 9 metabolites, including arachidonic acid, cholic acid, glycodeoxycholic acid, N-adenosyltyrosine, arginine, lysophosphatidylethanolamine (20:0/0:00), lysophospholipid (P-18:0), lysophospholipid (18:0), lysophospholipid (22:5(7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z,19Z)). MetaboAnalyst was used to analyze the metabolic pathway. There were 7 metabolic pathways closely related to the change of blood pressure in rats, among which arachidonic acid metabolic pathway was the most critical. The metabolism difference foreign body in the model rats tends to return to the normal level, which provides a research basis for the mechanism of BBT from the perspective of metabonomics. This study was approved by the Experimental Animal Welfare Ethics Review Committee of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval number: SDUTCM20211103001).
