The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is higher among individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than in the general population. Emerging evidence indicates that the development of MASLD in patients with IBD may occur independently of traditional metabolic risk factors, suggesting a unique pathophysiological mechanism distinct from conventional MASLD pathways. Bile acids (BAs), which act as critical signaling molecules in enterohepatic circulation, play an essential role in maintaining gastrointestinal homeostasis through bidirectional gut–liver axis communication. These molecules are increasingly recognized as pivotal regulators in the progression of both MASLD and IBD. While previous studies have characterized the dynamics of BA in blood or fecal samples under both conditions, a comprehensive understanding of their metabolic profiles and the associated interactions within the gut–liver axis is still lacking. This review synthesizes current evidence from studies employing BA metabolomics to investigate IBD and MASLD. By focusing on BA signatures, we summarize conserved alterations between these two conditions and their potential mechanisms of disease progression. Our review advances understanding of BA-mediated pathways in IBD and MASLD, providing a foundation for assessing their roles in contributing to the pathogenesis of MASLD in patients with IBD.

Excessive stress has a significant impact on an indi-vidual's physical and mental health and quality of life.Al-though psychotherapy is commonly used for post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD),pharmacotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of severe PTSD.At present,there are limited types of approved medications for PTSD,and their efficacy and safety have certain limitations,such as low remission rates,high relapse rates,and increased behavioral risks.Studies have shown that hallucinogens such as psilocybin and ketamine can enhance neuroplasticity,modulate brain network connections,and regulate the immune system by interacting with different re-ceptors,so as to effectively alleviate PTSD symptoms such as anxiety,depression and fear,showing great potential in PTSD treatment.However,these hallucinogens are not yet widely used in clinical practice.This review summarizes the effects and neu-robiological mechanisms of hallucinogens in the treatment of stress-related symptoms,aiming to provide references for the clinical treatment of PTSD.

Objective To investigate the cIinicopathological features and immunohistochemical expression of gastric hyperplastic polyps(GHPs)with dysplasia/adenocarcinoma.Methods A retrospective analysis of 24 cases(44 polyps)that were diagnosed as GHPs with dysplasia/adenocarcinoma in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2024 was reviewed,and clinical,histomorphological,immunophenotypic and follow-up data were analyzed.Results There were 20 female and 4 male cases,with a mean age of(65.5±7.9)(range 56～76)years.Among 44 polyps,3 occurred in the antrum of the stomach,1 in the gastric horn,and 40 in the fundus/body.Among the polyps,32 cases were diagnosed as high-grade dysplasia,4 cases as low-grade dysplasia,4 cases as coexistence of low-grade+high-grade dysplasia,2 cases as mucinous adenocarcinoma,1 cases as poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma,and 1 cases as signet-ring cell carcinoma.The histological manifestations of 23 cases of background mucosa were autoimmune metaplastic atrophic gastritis(AMAG).the P53 of 8 polyps showed a mutant expression pattern.Through MUC5/MUC6/MUC2/CD10 joint examination,33 cases showed gastric type(25 cases of which were foveal epithelium type),4 cases were intestinal type,5 cases were mixed gastrointestinal type,and 2 cases were non-gastrointestinal type.Conclusion The neoplastic transformation of GHPs is closely related to AMAG.It is necessary for clinicians and pathologists to strengthen their evaluation of background mucosa,to achieve early detection,early diagnosis and early treatment.

The scientific research and innovation capabilities of medical students are intrinsically linked to the sustained and high-quality development of national healthcare initiatives.Cultivating outstanding medi-cal students with independent scientific capabilities and innovative consciousness is a critical component in the education and training of high-level medical professionals.Our investigation revealed that within the imperfections of the cultivating model,some faculty and students at medical schools have an insufficient understanding of scientific research and innovation and lack motivation for engaging in such activities,which hinder the progression of scientific research activities.Consequently,we initiated a teaching practice and exploratory study on the"tutorial system"aimed at fostering medical students'scientific research and innovation abilities.Based on the principle of"research informing teaching,teaching and research advan-cing together,"this study implements a"tutorial system"coordinated by tutors,supplemented by graduate and undergraduate student mentors,to cultivate innovative thinking,stimulate interest in scientific re-search,and enhance practical and research skills among medical students.Through collaborative efforts within"scientific research innovation teams,"various educational methods—including preliminary re-search,in-class and extracurricular activities,intra-group and inter-group interactions,and theoretical and practical applications—are employed to improve and strengthen the cultivation of medical students'scientif-ic research and innovation abilities.This study aims to provide valuable references for optimizing medical education management systems and enhancing the quality of medical student training.

Soy is a vital source of plant carbohydrates.However,it poses significant allergenic risks,particularly to young children and animals.Among the various proteins in soy,β-conglycinin,which con-stitutes approximately 30％of total soy carbohydrates,is a primary allergen.Undigested β-conglycinin can lead to intestinal damage by inhibiting cell growth,disrupting the cytoskeleton,and inducing apopto-sis.It can also enter the lymphatic and circulatory systems,triggering allergic reactions.Conventional ELISA methods for detecting β-conglycinin rely on polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies,which are limited by their large molecular weight,difficulty in accessing the protein core,and sensitivity to acidic and bas-ic conditions.To address these limitations,this study aimed to develop nanobodies(Nbs)against β-con-glycinin.Nbs,derived from the variable regions of heavy-chain antibodies found in camelids,have a mo-lecular weight approximately one-tenth that of conventional antibodies.They offer advantages such as small size,stable structure,high specificity,and strong affinity.A female alpacas was immunized five times using β-conglycinin,which showed a heavy chain antibody potency of 1∶16 000 by ELISA.Pe-ripheral blood lymphocytes were subsequently isolated and total RNA was extracted.The variable region of the heavy-chain antibody was amplified via PCR,and recombinant plasmids were constructed and transformed into the E.coli competency strain ER2738.The resulting library contained about 3.5×108 CFU/mL,which increased to 1.15×1012 PFU/mL after phage rescue,with a 100％Nbs gene insertion rate,indicating high diversity.Its Nbs phage output was significantly enriched by four rounds of solid-phase elution with an enrichment rate of 155.9.Four rounds of solid-phase panning yielded 35 positive clones,all of which shared the same amino acid sequence upon sequencing.The selected Nb was ex-pressed in a prokaryotic system,and its binding ability to β-conglycinin was confirmed using Western blotting and ELISA.The results demonstrated excellent specificity and affinity.This research lays the groundwork for developing a rapid and efficient detection method for β-conglycinin using Nbs,potentially enhancing food safety and allergen management.

Objective To establish a scientific and feasible Chinese medicine(CM)comprehensive control and prevention program for elderly hypertension with early renal damage(EH-ERD)patients through high-level evidence-based medicine(EBM)evidence.Methods On the basis of literature research and evidence evaluation,we construct a database of specific prescriptions and implementation methods of CM comprehensive control and prevention program with EH-ERD.40 senior titled-experts were consulted in two rounds of questionnaires based on Delphi methods.We selected,evaluated,and revised specific CM comprehensive control and prevention program of EH-ERD through the analysis of multiple factors,such as expert's positive activity coefficient,authority coefficient,degree of opinion concentration and degree of coordination.Results In view of the CM appropriate intervention techniques with high-grade evidence(level Ⅰ and Ⅱ)and recommendation(level A and B),we have developed the CM comprehensive control and prevention plan items for EH-ERD.The activity coefficients in two-round consultation were 92.5%and 97.14%respectively,the overall authority coefficient(Cr)was exceeded 0.70,and the coordination coefficient was less than 0.25.With a sound activity coefficient,a relatively high Cr and a rather unified degree of opinion concentration and coordination,the CM comprehensive control and prevention program for EH-ERD was established,which included six primary indicators(CM compound preparation,acupuncture and massage,CM health education,medicinal diet therapy,health care exercise and foot bath)and seventeen secondary indicators.Conclusion The CM comprehensive control and prevention program for EH-ERD established in this study can provide a basis for the further formation of expert consensus or guidelines.Moreover,it can supply the strategy and paradigm for standardization of CM-based health management of EH-ERD.

AIM:To construct and breed infertility model mice with ATP/GTP binding carboxypeptidase 1(Agtpbp1)gene knockout homozygote(Agtpbp1-/-)by CRISPR/Cas9 technology,so as to provide an animal model for the subsequent exploration of the pathogenesis of Agtpbp1 gene in male sterility.METHODS:The CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used to obtain Agtpbp1 gene knockout heterozygote(Agtpbp1+/-)mice according to the data of the main protein functional region of Agtpbp1 gene and combined with Cas9 nuclease.The obtained Agtpbp1+/-mice were mated,and their offspring were genotyped by PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis.The expression of Agtpbp1 at different levels was detected by RT-PCR,Western blot and immunohistochemical staining to support the identification results.The HE staining was used to observe the mouse cerebellum and eyeball structure to analyze the effect of Agtpbp1 gene knockout on Purkinje cells and photoreceptor cells.The symptoms of ataxia in mice were observed in combination with behavioral tests.The growth of mice was observed,and the changes of testicular tissue volume and weight of male mice were analyzed.The HE staining was used to observe the changes of testicular structure,and PAS staining was used to observe the changes of testicular germ cell cycle.Finally,sperm analyzer was used to analyze the sperm motility,so as to analyze the growth and develop-ment of the mice.RESULTS:The male and female Agtpbp1+/-mice could continue to mate,and three genotypes,Agtpbp1 wild-type(Agtpbp1+/+),Agtpbp1+/-and Agtpbp1-/-,were obtained.The genotypes of the offspring mice were successfully identified by PCR.The results of RT-PCR,Western blot and immunohistochemical staining verified the successful con-struction of Agtpbp1-/-mouse model at different levels(P<0.05).The results of HE staining showed that Purkinje cells were lost in the cerebellum of Agtpbp1-/-mice and the number of photoreceptor cells in the eyeball was reduced.Behavioral tests confirmed that Agtpbp1-/-mice had ataxia symptoms such as motor dysfunction and uncoordinated movements.Com-pared with control group,the testicular volume and weight of Agtpbp1-/-mice were significantly reduced.The results of HE staining showed a very small amount of sperm in the testis of Agtpbp1-/-mice.Combined with the sperm analyzer,it was ob-served that the sperm motility,vitality and movement rate of Agtpbp1-/-mice were significantly lower than those of the con-trol mice.Testicular sections with PAS staining showed cell cycle arrest of the sperm from Agtpbp1-/-mice.CONCLU-SION:In this study,Agtpbp1 knockout mice were successfully bred.The deletion of Agtpbp1 caused the arrest of sper-matogenic cell differentiation and the decrease in sperm motility in adult male mice,resulting in infertility.At the same time,it provides a new experimental tool for further exploring the molecular mechanism of Agtpbp1-induced male sterility.

[Summary]Diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN)is one of the most common complications of diabetes.The blood nerve barrier(BNB)is a barrier structure located in peripheral nerve tissue,protecting nerve tissue from toxic substances in the blood and maintaining material exchange and information transmission between nerves and blood.Studies have shown that changes in BNB may be the initial event leading to the occurrence of DPN.After BNB is destroyed,blood-borne pathogens can directly damage peripheral nerves and cause DPN.This article will review the physiological and pathological characteristics of BNB,the relationship between BNB and DPN,and the research progress in targeting BNB for the treatment of DPN.
