BACKGROUND: Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP), a rare and recurrent autoinflammatory disease, imposes a substantial burden on patients and society. Awareness of GPP in China remains limited. METHODS: This cross-sectional survey, conducted between September 2021 and May 2023 across 14 hospitals in China, included GPP patients of all ages and disease phases. Data collected encompassed demographics, clinical characteristics, economic impact, disease severity, quality of life, and treatment-related complications. Risk factors for GPP recurrence were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 127 patients (female/male ratio = 1.35:1), the mean age of disease onset was 25 years (1st quartile [Q1]-3rd quartile [Q3]: 11-44 years); 29.2% had experienced GPP for more than 10 years. Recurrence occurred in 75.6% of patients, and nearly half reported no identifiable triggers. Younger age at disease onset ( P  = 0.021) and transitioning to plaque psoriasis ( P  = 0.022) were associated with higher recurrence rates. The median diagnostic delay was 8 months (Q1-Q3: 2-41 months), and 32.3% of patients reported misdiagnoses. Comorbidities were present in 53.5% of patients, whereas 51.1% experienced systemic complications during treatment. Depression and anxiety affected 84.5% and 95.6% of patients, respectively. During GPP flares, the median Dermatology Life Quality Index score was 19.0 (Q1-Q3: 13.0-23.5). This score showed significant differences between patients with and without systemic symptoms; it demonstrated correlations with both depression and anxiety scores. Treatment costs caused financial hardship in 55.9% of patients, underscoring the burden associated with GPP. CONCLUSIONS The substantial disease and economic burdens among Chinese GPP patients warrant increased attention. Patients with early onset disease and those transitioning to plaque psoriasis require targeted interventions to mitigate the high recurrence risk.

PANoptosis is a type of programmed cell death regulated by the PANoptosome with key features of pyroptosis, apoptosis and/or necroptosis. As the most complex programmed cell death, PANoptosis emphasizes the compensatory role among multiple programmed cell deaths, and can regulate malignant phenotypes such as proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells through multiple signaling pathways, thus affecting malignant tumor progression. It has been found that PANoptosis plays a dual role in tumor progression and treatment. Therefore, it is clinically important to understand the molecular mechanisms by which PANoptosis affects tumorigenesis, development and progression. This paper reviews the molecular mechanisms of apoptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis, and discusses the activation and regulation mechanisms of PANoptosis and PANoptosome as well as the research progress on the role of PANoptosis in tumors, aiming to provide new ideas for cancer treatment and prognostic assessment.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between platelet alloantibodies and CD8⁺ T cell with platelet desialylation and apoptosis in platelet transfusion refractoriness(PTR). METHODS: The expression of RCA-1, CD62P and Neu1 on platelets were detected in 135 PTR patients and 260 healthy controls. The ability of PTR patients' sera with anti-HLA antibody, anti-CD36 antibody and antibody-negative groups to induce platelet desialylation and apoptosis, and the potential effect of FcγR inhibitors on desialylation and apoptosis were evaluated. Additionally, the association between CD8⁺ T cells and platelet desialylation in patients was analyzed. RESULTS: The expression of RCA-1 and Neu1 on platelets in PTR patients were significantly higher than those in healthy donors（P < 0.05）, but were not related to platelet alloantibody (P >0.05). The sera of PTR patients generally induced platelet desialylation in vitro （P < 0.05）, with no significant differences among the groups（P >0.05）. However, the sera with anti-CD36 antibodies could induce platelet apoptosis significantly higher than that in the anti-HLA antibody group and antibody-negative group in vitro (P < 0.05). In PTR patients with anti-CD36 antibodies, platelet apoptosis was dependent on FcγR signaling, while desialylation is not. Moreover, CD8⁺ T cells in PTR patients were significantly associated with platelet desialylation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Platelet desialylation is a common pathological phenomenon in PTR patients， which involves the participation of CD8⁺ T cell, but isn't associated with platelet alloantibody; while anti-CD36 antibodies have potential clinical significance in predicting platelet apoptosis in PTR patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of colon dialysis with Yishen Decoction (YS) in improving the autophagy disorder of intestinal epithelial cells in chronic renal failure (CRF) in vivo and in vitro. METHODS: Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal, CRF, and colonic dialysis with YS groups by a random number table method (n=10). The CRF model was established by orally gavage of adenine 200 mg/(kg•d) for 4 weeks. CRF rats in the YS group were treated with colonic dialysis using YS 20 g/(kg•d) for 14 consecutive days. The serum creatinine (SCr) and urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pathological changes of kidney and colon tissues were observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Autophagosome changes in colonic epithelial cells was observed with electron microscopy. In vitro experiments, human colon cancer epithelial cells (T84) were cultured and divided into normal, urea model (74U), YS colon dialysis, autophagy activator rapamycin (Ra), autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA), and SIRT1 activator resveratrol (Re) groups. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), Claudin-1, silent information regulator sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), LC3, and Beclin-1 both in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS: Colonic dialysis with YS decreased SCr and BUN levels in CRF rats (P<0.05), and alleviated the pathological changes of renal and colon tissues. Expressions of SIRT1, ZO-1, Claudin-1, Beclin-1, and LC3II/I were increased in the YS group compared with the CRF group in vivo (P<0.05). In in vitro study, compared with normal group, the expressions of SIRT1, ZO-1, and Claudin-1 were decreased, and expressions of Beclin-1, and LC3II/I were increased in the 74U group (P<0.05). Compared with the 74U group, expressions of SIRT1, ZO-1, and Claudin-1 were increased, whereas Beclin-1, and LC3II/I were decreased in the YS group (P<0.05). The treatment of 3-MA and rapamycin regulated autophagy and the expression of SIRT1. SIRT1 activator intervention up-regulated autophagy as well as the expressions of ZO-1 and Claudin-1 compared with the 74U group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Colonic dialysis with YS could improve autophagy disorder and repair CRF intestinal mucosal barrier injury by regulating SIRT1 expression in intestinal epithelial cells.

Objective To investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution in pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia(IDA)and its related influencing factors,so as to provide a reference for the TCM prevention and treatment of IDA in pregnancy.Methods A total of 109 eligible patients with IDA during pregnancy were included in the study.The general data of pregnant women,the TCM constitution types and relevant laboratory indicators including serum ferritin(Fer),hemoglobin(Hb)and mean corpuscular volume(MCV)were collected.Statistical analyses were conducted on the distribution of TCM constitution types of IDA pregnant women and its related influencing factors as well as the pregnancy outcomes.Results(1)The 109 IDA pregnant women were predominated by biased constitution types,accounted for 60 cases(55.05％).The distribution of the constitution types of 109 IDA pregnant women was as follows:balanced constitution(49 cases,44.95％)>damp-heat constitution(13 cases,11.93％)>yang deficiency constitution(12 cases,11.01％)>yin deficiency constitution(11 cases,10.09％)>qi deficiency constitution(10 cases,9.17％)>qi stagnation constitution(9 cases,8.26％)>blood stasis constitution(3 cases,2.75％)>phlegm-damp constitution(2 cases,1.83％).(2)Comparison of Hb and MCV levels in IDA pregnant women with various constitution types showed no statistically significant differences(P>0.05),but Fer level in IDA pregnant women with damp-heat constitution was significantly higher than that in IDA pregnant women with balanced constitution(P<0.01),and the probability of occurrence of amniotic opacity in IDA pregnant women with damp-heat constitution was significantly higher than that in IDA pregnant women with balanced constitution and other biased constitution types(P<0.05).Conclusion Damp-heat constitution is the most common TCM constitution type in pregnant women with IDA,followed by yang deficiency constitution,yin deficiency constitution and qi deficiency constitution.The damp-heat constitution may be the susceptible constitution of pregnant women with IDA,and IDA pregnant women with damp-heat constitution have significantly higher Fer level than those with balanced constitution,and also have the higher probability of occurrence of amniotic opacity than those with balanced constitution and other biased constitution types.

Cough variant asthma （CVA） is a chronic respiratory disease with cough as its main symptom. The occurrence of CVA is closely related to non-specific airway inflammation， and its pathogenesis involves environmental， genetic， immune， and other factors. In recent years， the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of CVA have attracted the attention of experts and scholars in China and abroad， especially its prominent role in regulating immune balance， relieving cough symptoms in CVA patients， and reducing recurrence. T Helper cells 1 （Th1）， T helper cells 2 （Th2）， T helper cells 17 （Th17）， and regulatory T cells （Treg） are derived from CD4⁺ T cells. Immune imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg is a new hotspot in the pathogenesis of CVA and a potential key target in the treatment of CVA by TCM. Th cell subsets are in dynamic balance under physiological conditions， maintaining respiratory immune homeostasis in which pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines are balanced. Immature helper T cells （Th0） can be differentiated into Th1， Th2， Th17， Treg， and other cell subsets due to cytokine types in the microenvironment in the stage of CVA maturation. The proliferation of Th2 cells leads to eosinophilic airway inflammation. Excessive differentiation of Th17 cells induces neutrophil airway inflammation. Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg cells are mutually restricted in number and function， and the immune imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg is easy to aggravate the generation of inflammatory response. Restoring immune balance is particularly important for the airway anti-inflammatory therapy of CVA. In this paper， the imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg and the pathogenesis of CVA were systematically expounded. Meanwhile， the latest research on the regulation of immune imbalance by TCM compound， single TCM， and its effective ingredients in the treatment of CVA was reviewed. It provides ideas and references for revealing the scientific connotation of TCM regulating immune balance therapy of CVA， as well as the development of clinical treatment and basic research of CVA.

Objective To observe the efficacy of Asini Corii Colla for the treatment of women with pregnancy anemia induced by β-thalassemia and its effect on the expression of early growth response 2(EGR2).Methods Transcriptome sequencing(RNA-seq)was performed firstly.Twenty pregnant women with β-thalassemia were randomly assigned to the treatment group and the control group at the proportion of 3:1.There were 15 cases allocated to the treatment group,one case fell off during the trial,and eventually 14 cases were included.The control group had 5 cases.The treatment group was given Asini Corii Colla powder orally,and the control group had no intervention.The course of treatment covered 4 weeks.The peripheral blood of the two groups of pregnant women was sampled before and after treatment for RNA-seq analysis,and then the candidate targets were defined.Subsequently,a prospective clinical randomized controlled trial(RCT)was conducted.A total of 41 pregnant women with β-thalassemia were randomly assigned to the treatment group(24 cases)and the control group(17 cases)at the proportion of 3:2.The treatment group was treated with Asini Corii Colla powder orally,and the control group was treated with the simulant of Asini Corii Colla Powder orally.The course of treatment covered 4 weeks.The hematological parameters of the two groups of pregnant women were detected before and after treatment,and the mRNA and protein expression levels of candidate targets were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction(real-time PCR)and western blotting respectively.Results(1)The results of RNA-seq analysis showed that EGR2 expression of patients with genotype βCD41-42(-TTCT)/βN in the treatment group was significantly up-regulated after treatment(log2 FC=1.915;Padj=9.84E-03),and EGR2 was named as the candidate target.(2)The results of RCT showed that after treatment,there was no significant difference in the average hemoglobin(Hb)concentration between the two groups of pregnant women with β-thalassemia(P＞0.05),but the average Hb of the patients with genotypeβCD41-42(-TTCT)/βN in the treatment group increased by(6.54±4.74)g/L,which was significantly higher than that of other genotypes of pregnant women with β-thalassemia(P＜0.05).The expression levels of EGR2 Mrna and protein in peripheral blood of the patients with genotypeβCD41-42(-TTCT)/Βn in the treatment group were significantly increased after treatment(P＜0.05).The pre-and post-treatment difference of Hb concentration in the two groups of pregnant women withβ-thalassemia was positively correlated with pre-and post-treatment difference of EGR2 Mrna level and EGR2 protein level,and the correlation coefficients were 0.701 and 0.683,respectively(P＜0.001).Conclusion The pregnant women with thalassemia of genotype Βcd41-42(-TTCT)/Βn can achieve satisfactory efficacy after oral administration of Asini Corii Colla.Its curative effect for improving anemia may be related to the transcriptional regulation of globin genes through up-regulating EGR2 expression,activating RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter,and promoting nucleic acid binding.

Objective To observe the efficacy of Chinese medicine in the treatment of pregnancy complicated with thalassemia and to investigate its influence on pregnancy outcomes.Methods A retrospective cohort study was carried out in 175 pregnant women complicated with thalassemia who met the inclusion criteria.According to the treatment methods,the patients were divided into Chinese medicine group(105 cases),iron supplementation group(41 cases)and untreated group(29 cases).The changes of hematological indicators and pregnancy outcomes in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy were compared among the three groups.The Chinese medicine group was further divided into three subgroups:56 cases in the Chinese patent medicine group,20 cases in the single Chinese medicine group and 29 cases in the Chinese herbal compound group.The changes of hematological indexes in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy in the three subgroups were compared.Moreover,the normative management of pregnant women with thalassemia during pregnancy was explored.Results(1)The concentration of hemoglobin(Hb)in the third trimester of the Chinese medicine group was(2.28±7.27)g/L higher than that in the second trimester,and the curative effect of Chinese medicine group was superior to that in the iron supplementation group and the untreated group(P＜0.05).The Hb concentration in the Chinese medicine group before delivery was(12.17±10.81)g/L higher than that in the second trimester,and the increase in the Chinese medicine group was more significantly than that in the other two groups(P＜0.05).(2)The level of serum ferritin(FER)in the third trimester of the three groups was lower than that in the second trimester,and the decrease of FER level in the iron supplementation group was less significantly than that in the other two groups(P＜0.05).(3)The Hb concentration in the third trimester of the single Chinese medicine group and the Chinese herbal compound group increased by(4.50±4.66),(3.62±8.77)g/L respectively compared with that in the second trimester,and the increase in the above two groups was more significantly than that in the Chinese patent medicine group(P＜0.05).(4)There was no significant difference in pregnancy outcomes among the three groups of pregnant women with thalassemia(P＞0.05).(5)Only 52.0％(91/175)of pregnant women with thalassemia underwent three or more blood routine tests after 20-24 weeks of pregnancy,34.3％(60/175)of pregnant women failed in re-examining the FER levels,and 21.2％(37/175)of pregnant women had no standardized iron supplementation.Conclusion Chinese medicine therapy is effective on improving anemia in pregnant women with thalassemia.Chinese herbal compound and single Chinese medicinal are more effective than Chinese patent medicine,and have not increased the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.Oral administration of iron can increase the iron reserve of pregnant women with thalassemia,but its effect on improving anemia is not as good as that of Chinese medicine.Attention should be got to the monitoring of anemia and iron metabolism indicators as well as the standardized use of iron supplements and Chinese patent medicines in pregnant women with thalassemia.
