By consulting relevant literature of ancient herbal books and processing specifications, this paper made a systematic research and analysis of Ostreae Concha, including the name, producing area, harvesting, quality, historical evolution of processing, relevant processing specifications, modern processing technology, and changes in chemical composition and pharmacological effects before and after processing, in order to provide documentary evidence for the research on processing technology and the establishment of quality standards. According to the textual research, it is known that Ostreae Concha has a long history of being used in medicine, and there have been many aliases and local names in each historical period. Shennong's Classic of the Materia Medica(Shennong Bencaojing) began to use Muli as the correct name, which has continued to use to today, and there were also aliases such as Muge, Zuogu Muli and Haoke. Ostreae Concha has a wide range of localities and irregular harvesting periods. The ancients believed that its left shell was of superior quality, but this has not been seen in modern. And there were many kinds of processing methods of Ostreae Concha, such as grinding, roasting, calcining, frying, simmering, quenching and so on, and the calcining was still in use. The different editions of Chinese Pharmacopoeia from 1963 to 2020 contain only calcined Ostreae Concha, and the local processing specifications mainly include three kinds of processed products(calcined products, salt-soaked products and vinegar-soaked products). Modern processing research mainly focuses on process optimization, changes in chemical composition and pharmacological effects, and the research methods are relatively single. Overall, there are currently issues such as inconsistent processing standards, unclear process parameters and imperfect quality standards, which are not conducive to the quality control and standardized clinical use of Ostreae Concha. Therefore, it is necessary to further investigate the pharmacological substance basis of Ostreae Concha and its processed products in order to elucidate the processing mechanism, standardize the processing technology and improve the quality standard.

Peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals targeting integrin α5β1 show promise for precise tumor diagnosis and treatment. However, current peptide-based radioligands that target α5β1 demonstrate inadequate in vivo performance owing to limited tumor retention. The use of PEGylation to enhance the tumor retention of radiopharmaceuticals by prolonging blood circulation time poses a risk of increased blood toxicity. Therefore, a PEGylation strategy that boosts tumor retention while minimizing blood circulation time is urgently needed. Here, we developed a PEGylation-enabled peptide multidisplay platform (PEGibody) for PR_b, an α5β1 targeting peptide. PEGibody generation involved PEGylation and self-assembly. [64Cu]QM-2303 PEGibodies displayed spherical nanoparticles ranging from 100 to 200 nm in diameter. Compared with non-PEGylated radioligands, [64Cu]QM-2303 demonstrated enhanced tumor retention time due to increased binding affinity and stability. Importantly, the biodistribution analysis confirmed rapid clearance of [64Cu]QM-2303 from the bloodstream. Administration of a single dose of [177Lu]QM-2303 led to robust antitumor efficacy. Furthermore, [64Cu]/[177Lu]QM-2303 exhibited low hematological and organ toxicity in both healthy and tumor-bearing mice. Therefore, this study presents a PEGibody-based radiotheranostic approach that enhances tumor retention time and provides long-lasting antitumor effects without prolonging blood circulation lifetime. The PEGibody-based radiopharmaceutical [64Cu]/[177Lu]QM-2303 shows great potential for positron emission tomography imaging-guided targeted radionuclide therapy for α5β1-overexpressing tumors.

The activation proteins released by fibroblasts in the tumor microenvironment regulate tumor growth, migration, and treatment response, thereby influencing tumor progression and therapeutic outcomes. Owing to the proliferation and metastasis of tumors, fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is typically highly expressed in the tumor stroma, whereas it is nearly absent in adult normal tissues and benign lesions, making it an attractive target for precision medicine. Radiolabeled agents targeting FAP have the potential for targeted cancer diagnosis and therapy. This comprehensive review aims to describe the evolution of FAPI-based radiopharmaceuticals and their structural optimization. Within its scope, this review summarizes the advances in the use of radiolabeled small molecule inhibitors for tumor imaging and therapy as well as the modification strategies for FAPIs, combined with insights from structure-activity relationships and clinical studies, providing a valuable perspective for radiopharmaceutical clinical development and application.

Objective:To explore the genetic background and clinical features of patients with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3).Methods:This retrospective cohort included patients diagnosed with LQT3 at the Department of Cardiology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from January 1998 to December 2022. Patients were categorized into compound type group and single type group based on the presence of a single SCN5A mutation. The two groups were followed up and the differences in baseline characteristics, electrocardiograms, and clinical events between the two groups and probands were compared. Kaplan-Meier curves were used for survival analysis, and the log-rank test was employed to compare the event-free survival rates of first cardiac events between the groups and probands.Results:A total of 97 LQT3 patients were enrolled, including 59 probands. The age at diagnosis was (23.45±19.86) years, with 46 patients (47.4%) being male. Among them, 89 patients were classified as single type group, while 8 patients were classified as compound type group. Genetic testing identified 49 SCN5A mutations, with missense mutations being the majority (91.8%), primarily located in transmembrane regions (40.8%, n=20), interdomain linker regions (28.6%, n=14), and C-terminus (22.4%, n=11). The first cardiac event occurred in 44 patients (45.4%), with an onset age of (13.82±12.50) years. The main trigger was identified as rest or sleep (54.5%, n=24). Compared with patients in single type group, patients in compound type group were younger at diagnosis ((10.35±10.28) years vs. (24.63±20.13) years, P=0.040), had a significantly higher proportion of syncope (87.5% (7/8) vs. 33.7% (30/89), P=0.009), aborted cardiac arrest (62.5% (5/8) vs. 11.2% (10/89), P=0.001), and a lower incidence of event-free survival rates of first cardiac events (12.5% (1/8) vs.58.4% (52/89), log-rank P=0.001). The probands in compound type group had a significantly higher proportion of aborted cardiac arrest comparing to probands in single type group (62.5% (5/8) vs. 17.6% (9/51), P=0.020), while the difference in the incidence rate of event-free survival rates of first cardiac events between the probands in two groups was not statistically significant (12.5% (1/8) vs. 39.2% (20/51), log-rank P=0.08). Conclusion:Compound type LQT3 patients are not uncommon. Such patients are diagnosed at a younger age and exhibit more severe phenotypes, requiring close follow-up and proactive intervention strategies.

Subclinical seizures (SCS) are paroxysmal electroencephalogram (EEG) events that do not accompany obvious subjective or objective behavioral changes. They are not uncommon in EEG monitoring, with an intracranial EEG detection rate of about 50%-60%, significantly higher than the scalp EEG detection rate of about 10%. SCS most frequently occur in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. In terms of EEG characteristics, SCS often remain confined to the epileptogenic zone but can also spread outside of it. Their value in localizing the epileptogenic zone is comparable to that of clinical seizures (CS). Additionally, the concordance between SCS and CS localization is associated with favorable surgical outcomes, indicating the significant value of SCS in focal epilepsy. A systematic review of domestic and international research on SCS is provided in this paper, aiming to enhance understanding in this area.

Objective:To investigate the effect of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitor PU-H71 combined with X-ray on radioresistant human cervical cancer cells.Methods:The expression levels of Hsp90 gene between cervical cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by bioinformatics. Radioresistant cervical cancer cell lines HeLa RR and SiHa RR were obtained by fractional irradiations (2 Gy per fraction, 30 fractions). The cell lines were divided into the control group (treated with dimethyl sulfoxide), irradiation alone group, PU-H71 group (treated with 0.5 μmol/L PU-H71), and PU-H71+irradiation group (irradiation at 24 h after treatment with 0.5 μmol/L PU-H71). Cell survival was detected by clonal formation assay. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect γH2AX foci at 1, 6, and 24 h after cell treatment. The expression level of Rad51 protein at 1, 2, 6, 12, and 24 h after cell treatment was detected using Western blot. The expression level of phosphorylated DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (p-DNA-PKcs) was measured at 2 h after cell treatment. Cell apoptosis at 48 h after cell treatment was assessed by flow cytometry. Results:PU-H71 enhanced the sensitivity of radioresistant cervical cancer cells to X-ray. Compared with the irradiation alone group, the radiation sensitization ratios (SER) of HeLa RR and SiHa RR cells at 10% survival were 1.36 and 1.27, and the apoptosis rates were increased by approximately 72.1% and 63.1% in the PU-H71+irradiation group, respectively. PU-H71 delayed the duration of γH2AX foci induced by X-ray, inhibited the phosphorylation of DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), thus preventing non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair and delaying homologous recombination repair.Conclusion:PU-H71 increases the radiosensitivity of radioresistant cervical cancer cells by inhibiting the repair pathway of DNA double-strand break, which is expected to be a radiosensitizer to enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy for cervical cancer.

Objective:To investigate the influence of age on the fresh cycle live birth rate in patients with poor ovarian response in different controlled ovarian hyperstimulation groups.Methods:The clinical data of 3 342 patients in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2014 to November 2018 were retrospectively collected, including early-follicular phase long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist long protocol group (1 375 cases), mid-luteal phase short-acting GnRH agonist long protocol group (1 161 cases) and GnRH antagonist protocol group (806 cases); each group was divided into 4 subgroups according to age: ≤30 years, 31-35 years, 36-40 years and >40 years, the pregnancy outcomes in each age subgroup were analyzed under different controlled ovarian hyperstimulation protocols.Results:In early-follicular phase long-acting GnRH agonist long protocol group, the final live birth rates of each age subgroup were 39.4% (228/579), 36.1% (135/374), 16.6% (48/290) and 3.0% (4/132); in mid-luteal phase short-acting GnRH agonist long protocol group, live birth rates of each age subgroup were 32.1% (99/308), 20.8% (55/264), 13.0% (45/346) and 7.0% (17/243); in GnRH antagonist protocol group, live birth rates of each age subgroup were 22.8% (26/114), 16.3% (25/153), 11.2% (31/278), and 3.8% (10/261); the live birth rate of each group decreased significantly with the increase of age (all P<0.01). When the age≤35 years old, the fresh cycle live birth rate of the early-follicular phase long-acting GnRH agonist long protocol group was significantly better than those of the other two groups (all P<0.01). The multivariate logistic regression analysis of age and live birth rate of the three controlled ovarian hyperstimulation groups showed age was the independent influence factor ( OR=0.898, 95% CI: 0.873-0.916, P<0.01; OR=0.926, 95% CI: 0.890-0.996, P<0.01; OR=0.901, 95% CI: 0.863-0.960, P<0.01). Conclusions:Age is an independent influencing factor for the prediction of fresh cycle live birth rate in low ovarian response patients. No matter which controlled ovarian hyperstimulation protocol is adopted, the final live birth rate decreases significantly with the increase of women′s age. In addition, the early-follicular phase long-acting GnRH agonist long protocol has the highest fresh cycle live birth rate among all controlled ovarian hyperstimulation groups.
