Objective To explore the feasibility using aluminum tripolyphosphate as the synthesis of aspirin model instead of sulfuric acid catalyst. Methods The thermodynamic functions of the reaction system of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride were calculated according to the Benson group contribution method and Joback group contribution method.The enthalpy change,entropy and Gibbs free energy along with the change of temperature as well as the influence of the molar rate of reactants on the equilibrium conversation rate were also studied.Results In the temperature range of 298.15 K to 358.15 K,the reaction enthalpy was less than zero,and was exothermic reaction,and increase of temperature was not conducive to the reaction.The improvement of mole ratio of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride was helpful to improve the equilibrium conversation rate.The theoretical conversion rate could reach 99.58% when the mole ratio of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride was 3.Conclusion From the viewpoint of thermodynamics, the reaction is practical and feasible.

Objective:To clarify the effect of miR-200c on the proliferation of retroperitoneal fibroblast, and analyze its molecular mechanism, which provide theoretical basis for the inhibition of retroperitoneal fibrosis. Methods: 36 cases of retroperitoneal tissues were collected, and the primary fibroblasts were cultured. The cells stimulated by 5 ng/ml transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were used as TGF-β1 group;the cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-miR-200c first, and then stimulated by 5 ng/ml TGF-β1 were used as miR-200c group;the cells transfected only by pcDNA 3.1 were used as pcDNA 3.1 group;the normal cultured cells were used as control group. The MTT assay, cell scratch and Transwell chamber were used to detect the proliferation and migration of fibroblast, respectively. The ELISA experiment was used to detect the content of Akt protein in the lysis liquid of each group. Results: The OD value of fibroblast proliferation in miR-200c group was obviously lower than that of TGF-β1 group (P<0.01);compared with TGF-β1 group, the cell migration rate was decreased significantly in miR-200c group (P<0.01);the content of Akt protein in miR-200c was obviously lower than that of TGF-β1 group (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-200c inhibits the effect of TGF-β1 on the proliferation and migration of fibroblast by down-regulating Akt signaling pathway, which has important significance in inhibiting peritoneal fibrosis.

Lung transplantation is currently the only recognized effective treatment for end-stage lung disease and has improved the quality of life for patients. However, lung transplantation still faces many challenges, including rejection, infection, post-transplant acute kidney injury, post-transplant diabetes mellitus, ischemia-reperfusion injury and donor shortage, etc. Chinese lung transplantation scholars made a series of important progress in the field of clinical research in 2024, focusing on the study and solution of the above problems, and providing new ideas for lung transplantation surgery. This article systematically reviews the clinical research and technological innovation in the field of lung transplantation in 2024, summarizes the achievements of clinical research in the field of lung transplantation in China in 2024, and aims to providing new directions and strategies for future research.

Lung transplantation is the optimal treatment for end-stage lung diseases and can significantly improve prognosis of the patients. However, postoperative complications such as infection, rejection, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and other challenges (like shortage of donor lungs) , limit the practical application of lung transplantation in clinical practice. Chinese research teams have been making continuous efforts and have achieved breakthroughs in basic research on lung transplantation by integrating emerging technologies and cutting-edge achievements from interdisciplinary fields, which has strongly propelled the development of this field. This article will comprehensively review the academic progress made by Chinese research teams in the field of lung transplantation in 2024, with a focus on the achievements of Chinese teams in basic research on lung transplantation. It aims to provide innovative ideas and strategies for key issues in the basic field of lung transplantation and to help China's lung transplantation cause reach a higher level.
