OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanism of total alkaloids of Corydalis Rhizoma （TAC） on the regulation of cuproptosis in rats with diabetic cardiomyopathy （DCM） based on silence information regulator 1（Sirt1）/tumor protein 53（P53）signaling pathway. METHODS DCM rat model was induced by high-fat and high-sugar diet and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Thirty-two model rats were randomly divided into model group， TAC low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （7， 10.5， 14 mg/kg）， with 8 rats in each group. An additional 8 rats were assigned to normal control group. Related drugs or normal saline were administered intragastrically in each group， once a day， for 4 weeks. After the last medication， the fasting blood glucose （FBG） levels of the rats were measured. The levels of myocardial creatine kinase （CK）， creatine kinase isoenzyme （CK-MB）， and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） in serum and myocardial tissue of rats were all detected. The pathological morphology， fibrosis degree， and Cu2+ deposition of myocardial tissue in rats were observed. The levels of Cu2+ and glutathione （GSH） in myocardial tissue， the expressions of Sirt1/P53 signaling pathway-related proteins [Sirt1， P53， solute carrier family 7 membrane 11 （SLC7A11）]， and iron-sulfur cluster-related proteins [ferredoxin 1 （FDX1）， lipoic acid synthetase （LIAS）， aconitase 2 （ACO2）， NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit S8 （NDUFS8）， dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase （DLAT）， dihydrolipoamide succinyltransferase （DLST）]， and heat shock protein 70 （HSP70） were all determined. RESULTS Compared with normal control group， the model group exhibited significantly elevated levels of FBG， CK， CK-MB and LDH in both serum and myocardial tissue， as well as increased 2+ levels of Cu in myocardial tissue and the expression of P53 and HSP70 proteins （P＜0.05）； the level of GSH and the expression levels of Sirt1， SLC7A11， FDX1， LIAS， ACO2， NDUFS8， DLAT， and DLST proteins in myocardial tissue were all significantly decreased （P＜0.05）； the myocardial tissue exhibited severe pathological damage， with numerous inflammatory cell infiltrations and significant fibrosis， as well as increased deposition of Cu2+. Compared with model group， most of the above quantitative indicators in rats were significantly reversed in TAC groups （P＜0.05）； the pathological damage to the myocardial tissue was alleviated， with reduced fibrosis and Cu2+ deposition. CONCLUSIONS TAC can ameliorate DCM in rats， and its mechanism of action may be related to activating the activity of the Sirt1/P53 signaling pathway， promoting the chelation of GSH with Cu2+， and inhibiting cuproptosis of cardiomyocyte.

Background With the continuous development of the healthcare industry, healthcare workers face increasing pressure, including long-term shift work and workplace violence from patients or their relatives. This not only affects the physical and mental health of healthcare workers but may also negatively impact the quality of patient care and the efficiency of medical services. Objectives To analyze the pathways through which shift work and workplace violence affect healthcare workers' self-rated health and depression symptoms, explore potential mediating role of job burnout, and conduct subgroup analyses to reveal differences among various groups. Methods Data were collected from 3706 frontline healthcare workers across 23 provinces from January 10 to February 5, 2019, using a snowball sampling method. The survey included basic demographic information, self-rated health, depression symptoms [assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2)], workplace violence experience assessed using the Workplace Violence Scale), and job burnout (assessed using the Chinese Maslach Burnout Inventory). Data were analyzed using logistic regression, structural equation modeling (for mediating effects), and subgroup analysis to examine the impacts of shift work and workplace violence on health and depression symptoms. Results Among the subjects, 2700 workers (73.29%) reported shift work experience, 2079 workers (56.43%) experienced workplace violence, 633 workers (17.18%) reported poor self-rated health, and 687 workers (18.65%) reported depression symptoms. Shift work was associated with self-rated health (OR=0.572, 95%CI: 0.461, 0.710) and depression symptoms (OR=1.519, 95%CI: 1.190, 1.938), while workplace violence also associated with self-rated health (OR=0.566, 95%CI: 0.471, 0.681) and depression symptoms (OR=2.096, 95%CI: 1.740, 2.525). Job burnout significantly mediated the effects of shift work and workplace violence on self-rated health (indirect effects: −0.023, −0.027) and depression symptoms (indirect effects: 0.032, 0.037) (all P < 0.001). The subgroup analysis revealed that age, marital status, physical exercise, smoking, and alcohol consumption influenced the impacts of shift work and workplace violence on health. Conclusion Shift work and workplace violence significantly affect healthcare workers' self-rated health and depression symptoms, with job burnout playing a key mediating role in this process. This suggests that healthcare institutions should improve resource allocation, provide flexible scheduling systems, ensure adequate rest time, and increase psychological support and safety measures to help healthcare workers better cope with work-related stress and violence.

Malignant tumors represent a significant health challenge, critically impacting human well-being. Malignant tumors have become one of the leading causes of death worldwide. According to statistics from the World Health Organization, nearly one-sixth of global deaths in 2020 were caused by malignant tumors. The burden of malignant tumors in our country is also increasing. In recent years, with population aging and changes in lifestyle, the incidence and mortality rates of malignant tumors in China have been steadily rising, malignant tumors have gradually become one of the main causes of death in China. Developing effective diagnostic and treatment methods is of great significance in reducing the burden of malignant tumors in our country. Historically, the focus has been on leveraging the biochemical cues of tumors for both diagnosis and treatment. While valuable, this strategy does not recapitulate the full complexity of tumor diagnosis and management. Recently, the integration of biomechanics and mechanobiology with oncology has highlighted the importance of mechanical cues, which have emerged as new hallmarks of tumors, regulating tumor initiation and development are expected to open potential novel routes for cancer diagnosis and therapeutic interventions. Despite the advances, a thorough literature review suggests a pronounced gap in our understanding of the mechanical properties of tumors. The clinical community has not yet completely recognized the diagnostic and therapeutic relevance of the mechanical cues of tumors. To bridge this knowledge gap, we propose and introduce the paradigm of "Tumor Mechanomedicine". We provide a comprehensive overview of the multi-scale mechanical characteristics of tumors, exploring their influence on tumor biology, from the aspects of tumor biomechanics, tumor mechanobiology, tumor mechanodiagnostics, and tumor mechanotherapeutics. By elucidating the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of these mechanical cues, we aim to furnish the oncology community with fresh insights, paving the way for innovative solutions to persistent clinical conundrums.
