Background: Murraya, a genus of shrubs and trees in the Rutaceae family, consists of approximately 9 species in China with significant medicinal and horticultural value. However, the phylogeny and taxonomy of Murraya species remain controversial, particularly with respect to Murraya exotica and M. paniculata. Objective: This study aimed to provide insights into the taxonomy, phylogeny, and identification of Murraya. Methods: In this study, the chloroplast (CP) genomes of 7 Murraya species were sequenced, assembled, and subjected to comparative and phylogenetic analyses. Results: The CP genomes of Murraya ranged from 158,573 to 160,817 bp in length and encoded 112 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Similar to other angiosperms, the inverted repeat regions of the CP genomes exhibited lower sequence divergence than the single-copy regions, and coding regions were more conserved than noncoding regions. Comparative analysis identified several highly variable regions (eg, matK, ycf1, ndhI-ndhA, trnH-GUG-psbA, rpl32-trnL) that could serve as molecular markers for species identification in Murraya. Among these, the ycf1 gene was validated as a useful marker for distinguishing M. exotica from M. paniculata. Positive selection was detected in 10 genes, including rbcL, psaJ, ndhD, ndhF, rpl2, rpl20, ycf1, accD, ccsA, and rpl32. Phylogenetic analysis based on CP genomes supported the recognition of M. exotica and M. paniculata as independent species. Moreover, the phylogenetic trees indicated that Murraya is not monophyletic, with sect. Bergera showing a closer relationship to Clausena. Molecular dating results suggested that the diversification of M. paniculata, M. alata, and M. exotica occurred approximately 9.11 Mya (95% highest posterior density: 4.90-13.87 Mya). Conclusion: These findings provide valuable CP genome data for clarifying the phylogenetic relationships between M. exotica and M. paniculata, and for advancing the study of DNA markers and the evolutionary history of Murraya.

ObjectiveTranscranial magneto-acoustic stimulation (TMAS) is an emerging non-invasive neuromodulation technique that may provide a novel non-pharmacological intervention strategy for Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is characterized by the progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc), leading to motor impairments such as bradykinesia, tremor, and rigidity. Increasing evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired mitochondrial quality control are central mechanisms underlying dopaminergic neuronal loss. In particular, abnormalities in mitophagy and mitochondrial fission-fusion balance contribute substantially to oxidative stress, energy metabolic failure, and neuronal injury. At present, most clinical treatments for PD mainly alleviate symptoms but do not effectively halt disease progression. Therefore, exploring new interventions targeting the core pathological mechanisms is of considerable significance. This study aims to investigate whether TMAS can improve neural damage and motor dysfunction in PD mice by regulating mitophagy and the fission/fusion dynamic balance, thereby providing theoretical and experimental support for its application in PD treatment. MethodsMale C57BL/6 mice were used in this study. A PD model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) for 7 consecutive days. After model induction, mice in the intervention group received TMAS once daily for 14 consecutive days, whereas the corresponding control group received sham stimulation. The stimulation target was positioned over the primary motor cortex (M1). Motor performance was evaluated using the pole test and the open-field test. To verify the activation effect of TMAS on the target cortical region, c-Fos immunohistochemistry was performed in the M1. To assess nigral dopaminergic neuronal injury, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunohistochemistry was used to quantify TH-positive neurons in the SNc. Mitochondrial function was evaluated by measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content in the SNc. Western blot was further performed to determine the expression of mitophagy-related proteins, including PINK1, Parkin, LC3-II, and p62, as well as mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins, including Drp1 and Opa1. ResultsTMAS significantly increased the number of c-Fos-positive cells in M1 (P<0.000 1), indicating effective activation of neurons in the targeted cortical region. Compared with the control group, MPTP-treated mice exhibited marked motor dysfunction, including a significant reduction in total distance traveled in the open-field test (P<0.000 1) and mean speed (P=0.000 1), as well as significant prolongation of turn time and total climbing time in the pole test (P<0.000 1). These behavioral impairments were accompanied by a substantial loss of TH-positive dopaminergic neurons in the SNc, whereas TMAS significantly increased TH-positive neuron survival (P<0.000 1). In parallel, MPTP induced a pronounced increase in ROS levels and a significant reduction in ATP content, indicating severe mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolism impairment (P<0.01). TMAS treatment significantly improved motor performance, as reflected by the reversal of MPTP-induced impairment in the open-field and pole tests, and significantly reduced ROS accumulation (P<0.01) while restoring ATP production (P<0.001). At the molecular level, MPTP markedly downregulated PINK1 and Parkin, decreased p62 expression, increased LC3-II accumulation, elevated Drp1 expression, and reduced Opa1 expression, whereas TMAS significantly reversed these abnormalities, suggesting restoration of mitophagy-related mitochondrial quality control and re-establishment of mitochondrial fission-fusion balance. Collectively, these findings indicate that TMAS ameliorates MPTP-induced neurotoxicity and restores mitochondrial homeostasis and energy metabolism. ConclusionTMAS effectively attenuates neural damage and improves motor dysfunction in MPTP-induced PD mice. Its neuroprotective effects are closely associated with multidimensional regulation of the mitochondrial quality control system, including restoration of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and rebalancing of Drp1/Opa1-related mitochondrial dynamics. Rather than acting only as a symptomatic neuromodulatory intervention, TMAS may influence a key pathological axis of PD by improving mitochondrial homeostasis in SNc and protecting nigral dopaminergic neurons. These findings provide experimental evidence supporting TMAS as a promising non-invasive physical intervention for PD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of genistein (Gen) on etoposide-induced chondrocyte senescence and its underlying mechanism. MethodsThe C28/I2 cell line was treated with different concentrations of Gen and etoposide, and the cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay. The senescence model of C28/I2 chondrocytes was induced by etoposide, with Gen intervention. Senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining was performed to detect the senescence-positive rate and staining characteristics of chondrocytes. The expressions of peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6), cyclin-dependent kinaseto clarify the functional necessity of Prdx6. ResultsCompared with the etoposide group, the C28/I2 chondrocyte viability significantly increased (P<0.01), the expression ofsenescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), the expression of senescence-associated genes p21 and p16 reduced (both P<0.01), the fluorescence intensity of senescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 was diminished (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the proportion of SA-β-gal-positive cells decreased (P<0.01) in the Gen+etoposide group. Compared with the Control group, the expression of Prdx6 was downregulated in the etoposide group (P<0.05). Compared with the etoposide group, the expression of Prdx6 was upregulated in the Gen+etoposide group (P<0.01). Compared with the Control group, the GPx activity significantly decreased in the si-Prdx6 group (P<0.01). Furthermore, compared with the si-Prdx6 group, the GPx activity increased in the si-Prdx6+Gen group (P<0.05). Molecular docking results revealed that Gen formed hydrogen bond interactions with the active site of Prdx6. After Prdx6 knockdown, the expression of senescence-associated genes p21 and p16 and the fluorescence intensity of senescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 both increased in the Gen+etoposide+si-Prdx6 group (both P<0.01). ConclusionGen can inhibit etoposide-induced senescence of C28/I2 chondrocytes by upregulating the expression of Prdx6. This study provides potential drug targets and experimental basis for the prevention and treatment of chondrocyte senescence-related diseases.

Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) exhibits typical characteristics of psychosomatic comorbidity. Its core pathogenesis is considered to involve simultaneous disorders of both the body and the spirit, for which the former is attributed to liver constraint and spleen deficiency, and dysfunction of large intestine conduction, whereas the latter is induced by spirit restlessness of zang (脏) organs, and gate insecurity of the corporeal soul. Based on this understanding, the therapeutic principle of "simultaneous regulation of body and spirit" is established. For regulating the body, the methods include soothing the liver, fortifying the spleen, consolidating the intestines, and stopping diarrhea, with emphasis on the front-mu (募) points of the related zang-fu (脏腑) organs and acupoints of the foot yangming (阳明) stomach channel and foot taiyin (太阴) spleen channel. For regulating the spirit, the methods include calming the brain spirit, tranquilizing the zang organs spirit, and securing the corporeal soul gate, mainly selecting acupoints of Governer Vessel (督脉) and the back-shu (背俞) points of the corresponding zang-fu organs. Needle manipulation techniques for supplementation and drainage are flexibly applied according to the deficiency or excess nature of the syndrome. In addition, comprehensive application of moxibustion, electroacupuncture, and auricular therapy is emphasized, with the aim of providing clinical insights for diagnosis and treatment.

BACKGROUND:BCR/ABL gene is a specific gene of Ph chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia,and its expression level has become a sensitive indicator for monitoring minimal residual disease before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.However,whether the expression level of BCR/ABL gene before transplantation affects the efficacy of transplantation and how to guide the early intervention of relapse with tyrosine kinase inhibitors after transplantation is still inconclusive.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between BCR/ABL gene expression and recurrence in patients with Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia before and after related and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.METHODS:Twenty-four patients with Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia who achieved complete hematological remission and underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were selected at the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology between January 2015 and December 2022.Real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to dynamically detect the expression levels of BCR/ABL genes during treatment,representing minimal residual disease.Based on BCR/ABL gene expression,tyrosine kinase inhibitors combined with chemotherapy was administered before transplantation to select the timing of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.After transplantation,the disease status was evaluated to guide the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors,and an early intervention plan for recurrence was developed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Follow-up was until December 2023,with a median follow-up time of 49(12-82)months.There were 8 cases of hematological recurrence,with a median recurrence time of 14(8-39)months and a cumulative recurrence rate of 33%(8/24).Univariate analysis showed that recurrence after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was not significantly correlated with gender,age,extramedullary complications,time from diagnosis to transplantation,HLA typing,acute graft-versus-host disease,and chronic graft-versus-host disease(P>0.05).There was a significant correlation between the relief treatment course and minimal residual disease levels before transplantation.The second hematology completely resolution and positive minimal residual disease before transplantation had a higher hematological recurrence rate(P<0.05).The 3-year cumulative recurrence rate,disease-free survival rate,and overall survival rate were 27%,63%,and 74%;the 5-year cumulative recurrence rate,disease-free survival rate,and overall survival rate were 38%,57%,and 74%,respectively.It is concluded that Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients with BCR/ABL gene positive before transplantation have a higher recurrence rate.BCR/ABL gene expression after transplantation can guide the application of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and serve as a basis for early intervention in recurrence.

BACKGROUND:Magnetic nanomaterials,as a hot topic in the biomedical field in recent years,are often used to enhance the targeted delivery of drugs to the affected area.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of magnetic nano drug carriers on skeletal muscle injury markers and inflammatory responses in rats with sports injuries.METHODS:Magnetic nanoparticles were prepared.A total of 88 male SD rats were randomly divided into a blank group(n=8),an injury control group(n=32),a Yunnan Baiyao group(n=24),and a magnetic nano-drug carrier group(n=24)by using a random number table method.The latter three groups were modeled with exercise-induced muscle injury(treadmill slope of-16°,running speed of 16 m/min,and training time of 120 min).Immediately after exercise,after verifying the success of the model,Yunnan Baiyao patch was applied to the gastrocnemius muscle of the rats in the Yunnan Baiyao group.Yunnan Baiyao patch loaded with magnetic nanoparticles was applied to the gastrocnemius muscle of the rats in the magnetic nano-drug carrier group.At 24,48,and 120 hours after exercise,blood was drawn from the abdominal aorta of rats to detect the activities of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase,as well as the levels of myoglobin,interleukin-6,and tumor necrosis factor-α.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the gastrocnemius muscle.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the blank group,the levels of myoglobin,creatine kinase,lactate dehydrogenase and tumor necrosis factorα in the injury control group at 24,48 and 120 hours after exercise were increased(P<0.05),and the level of interleukin 6 at 24 and 120 hours after exercise was increased(P<0.05).Compared with the injury control group,the level of myoglobin in the Yunnan Baiyao group at 24 and 48 hours after exercise was decreased(P<0.05),the activities of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase at 24,48 and 120 hours were decreased(P<0.05),and the levels of interleukin 6 and tumor necrosis factor α at 120 hours after exercise were decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the Yunnan Baiyao group,the level of myoglobin in the magnetic nano-drug carrier group at 24 and 48 hours after exercise was decreased(P<0.05),the activities of creatine kinase and tumor necrosis factor α at 48 and 120 hours after exercise were decreased(P<0.05),and the lactate dehydrogenase activity was reduced(P<0.05).(2)Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated in the muscle fibers of the injury control group 24 hours after exercise,and then the inflammatory cell infiltration gradually decreased,and the local damaged muscle fibers began to regenerate 120 hours after exercise.A large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated in the muscle fibers of the Yunnan Baiyao group and the magnetic nano-drug carrier group 24 hours after exercise,and then the inflammatory cell infiltration gradually decreased,and the damaged muscle fibers were regenerating 120 hours after exercise,and there was no significant difference from the blank group.(3)The results show that Yunnan Baiyao patch combined with magnetic nanoparticles can accelerate the recovery of exercise-induced muscle injury in rats,and the effect is better than that of Yunnan Baiyao alone.
