This paper primarily investigated the protective effects and potential mechanisms of total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma in alleviating isoprenaline(ISO)-induced hypertrophy and damage in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Initially, H9c2 cardiomyocytes were used as the research subject to analyze the effects of ISO at different concentrations on cell hypertrophy and damage. On this basis, the H9c2 cardiomyocytes were divided into blank, model, and high-dose(200 μg·mL~(-1)), medium-dose(100 μg·mL~(-1)), and low-dose(50 μg·mL~(-1)) groups of total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma. Cell hypertrophy and damage models were induced by treating cells with 400 μmol·L~(-1) ISO for 24 hours. The Incucyte live-cell analysis system was utilized to observe the status, size changes, and confluence of the cells in each group. Cell viability was detected by using the CCK-8 assay. Western blot analysis was employed to detect the expression of Ras-associated protein 7A(RAB7A), sequestosome 1(SQSTM1/p62), autophagy-related protein Beclin1, and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3). Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression level of the autophagy marker Beclin1 in H9c2 cells. The results demonstrated that compared with the blank group, the model group showed a significant reduction in cell viability(P<0.01) and a marked increase in cell hypertrophy, with an average cell length growth of 13.53%. Compared with the model group, the high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose groups of total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma exhibited reduced hypertrophy, with respective growths of 6.89%, 8.30%, and 8.49% and a significant decrease in growth rates(P<0.01). Cell viability in the high-dose of total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma was also significantly increased(P<0.01). Western blot and immunofluorescence results indicated that compared with the blank group, the model group showed changes in Beclin1, RAB7A, and p62 expression, as well as the LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio, although most changes were not statistically significant. In the groups treated with total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma, the expression of autophagy-related proteins Beclin1 and RAB7A and the LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were significantly increased(P<0.05), while p62 expression significantly decreased(P<0.05). These findings collectively suggested that pretreatment of cells with total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma significantly enhanced autophagy activity in cells. In summary, total saponins from Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma inhibit ISO-induced hypertrophy and damage in H9c2 cells by promoting autophagy, demonstrating potential cardioprotective effects and providing new insights and scientific evidence for their preventive and therapeutic use in cardiovascular diseases.

Although clinical evidence suggests that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is an established major risk factor for heart failure, it remains unexplored whether sleep disorder-caused hepatic damage contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, our findings revealed that sleep fragmentation (SF) displayed notable hepatic detrimental phenotypes, including steatosis and oxidative damage, along with significant abnormalities in cardiac structure and function. All these pathological changes persisted even after sleep recovery for 2 consecutive weeks or more, displaying memory properties. Mechanistically, persistent higher expression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (NOX4) in the liver was the key initiator of SF-accelerated damage phenotypes. SF epigenetically controlled the acetylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27ac) enrichment at the Nox4 promoter and markedly increased Nox4 expression in liver even after sleep recovery. Moreover, fine coordination of the circadian clock and hepatic damage was strictly controlled by BMAL1-dependent Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) transcription after circadian misalignment. Accordingly, genetic manipulation of liver-specific Nox4 or Sirt1, along with pharmacological intervention targeting NOX4 (GLX351322) or SIRT1 (Resveratrol), could effectively erase the epigenetic modification of Nox4 by reducing the H3K27ac level and ameliorate the progression of liver pathology, thereby counteracting SF-evoked sustained CVD. Collectively, our findings may pave the way for strategies to mitigate myocardial injury from persistent hepatic detrimental memory in diabetic patients.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive malignancy predominantly managed via chemotherapy. Our clinical sample analysis revealed a significant correlation between elevated CD24 expression in TNBC tumor cells and patient survival rates. We developed a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), named HN03, consisting of an antibody with engineered cysteines for site-specific conjugation with a low toxic nitric oxide (NO) precursor as its payload through a novel Pt(IV)-mediated bioorthogonal self-cleavable linker. HN03 specifically targets tumor cells expressing high levels of CD24, concurrently generating cisplatin and releasing NO upon activation. HN03 also exhibited potent in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity. It significantly reduced tumor growth at various doses, prevented tumor metastasis, with markedly lower toxicity than traditional chemotherapy agents. We found that a key mechanism of its action involved inducing apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress, substantially decreasing the number of M2-type macrophages. Overall, HN03 stands out as a promising therapeutic option for TNBC, offering a targeted treatment with reduced side effects and the potential for improved outcomes. Furthermore, using Pt(IV) in the linker and an NO precursor as the payload enhances the versatility of the Antibody-NO donor Conjugate (ANC), offering new avenues for the design of the next generation of ADCs.

The Ebola virus (EBOV), a member of the Filoviridae family, is a highly pathogenic agent responsible for severe hemorrhagic fever in humans. Understanding the molecular mechanisms governing its replication is critical for developing effective antiviral strategies. VP35-TurboID immunosuppression coupled with quantitative mass spectrometry identified Septin9, the host GTP-binding protein which played a role in cytoskeletal regulation, as a novel interactor of VP35. Western blotting and Far-Western blotting confirmed the direct interaction and demonstrated that the C-terminal region of VP35 was the critical binding domain. Functionally, EBOV replication as well as the formation of viral inclusion bodies (VIBs) was demonstrated to be significantly suppressed by Septin9 knockdown and depletion, as shown by the EBOV minigenome (EBOV MG) and the transcription- and replication-competent virus-like particles (trVLPs) system. This study reveals that VP35 engages in a specific interaction with the GTP-binding protein Septin9, thereby impeding EBOV replication through the disruption of inclusion bodies. The overarching objective of this study is to significantly enhance our understanding about the pathogenic mechanism of EBOV and offer a robust theoretical foundation and solid empirical support for the formulation of innovative therapeutic strategies against EBOV.

Objective:To learn about the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of children with brucellosis, in order to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of brucellosis in children.Methods:Clinical data of children with brucellosis (aged ≤14 years) who visited the Department of Infectious Diseases at Beidahuang Industry Group General Hospital from December 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively collected, and their epidemiological characteristics, clinical characteristics, laboratory tests, treatment and outcome were summarized and analyzed.Results:A total of 34 children with brucellosis were included, including 25 males (73.53%) and 9 females (26.47%), with a gender ratio of 2.78 ∶ 1.00. The median age was 8 years and 1 month, mainly in the age group of 6 to 14 years (19 cases, 55.88%). Epidemiological investigation showed that most of the affected children were rural residents (25 cases, 73.53%), with more contact with cattle/sheep (26 cases, 76.47%). The onset time was mainly concentrated in summer (15 cases, 44.12%) and spring (13 cases, 38.24%). The clinical symptoms were mainly fever (97.06%, 33/34) and arthralgia (64.71%, 22/34). In the laboratory tests, 25 cases (73.53%) had positive blood cultures, and the white blood cell count (WBC) of 30 cases (88.24%) was (4 - 10) × 10 9/L. Among the abnormalities of liver function, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) increased in 19 cases (55.88%), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased in 14 cases (41.18%) and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) increased in 6 cases (17.65%). Among the myocardial enzymatic abnormalities, α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) increased in 29 cases (85.29%), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) increased in 27 cases (79.41%), and creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) increased in 8 cases (23.53%). After treatment, 25 children with positive blood culture turned negative. Conclusions:Children with brucellosis are mainly male, older and rural residents. The clinical manifestations are mainly fever and arthralgia. Doctors in relevant departments should conduct detailed epidemiological investigations and laboratory tests for such children in clinical work, in order to achieve early detection, diagnosis and treatment of pediatric brucellosis.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Chinese herbal medicine with the actions of invigorating spleen,activating blood and resolving phlegm in the treatment of senile insomnia based on the theory of"muscular atrophy,qi-passage blockage"recorded in Huang Di Nei Jing(The Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic,shortened as Nei Jing).Methods A total of 120 elderly patients with insomnia were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 60 cases in each group.The control group was treated with oral use of Dexzopiclone Tablets,and the observation group was treated with oral use of decoction of Chinese herbal medicine for invigorating spleen,activating blood and resolving phlegm.The course of treatment covered 4 weeks.Before and after treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score,Insomnia Severity Index(ISI)score,polysomnography(PSG)related parameters of total sleep time(TST),number of awakenings(AN)and sleep latency(SL),mean blood flow velocity of anterior cerebral artery(ACA),middle cerebral artery(MCA),and posterior cerebral artery(PCA),and serum levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)and melatonin(MT).After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)After 4 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 93.33%(56/60),which was slightly higher than 90.00%(54/60)of the control group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).(2)After treatment,the item scores and total scores of PSQI in the two groups were lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease of the scores of sleep quality,sleep time,sleep efficiency,and daytime function as well as total scores in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference of time for falling asleep and sleep disorder scores between the two groups(P＞0.05).After 4 weeks of drug withdrawal,the item scores of PSQI in the observation group continued to decrease compared with those after treatment(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in the control group(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the ISI scores in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).After 4 weeks of drug withdrawal,the ISI score of the observation group continued to decrease compared with that after treatment(P＜0.05),while the control group had no significant change,and the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).(4)After treatment,the PSG related parameters such as TST,AN and SL in the two groups were improved when compared with those before treatment(P＞0.05),and the improvement of TST and AN in the observation group was superior to that in the control group(P＞0.05).(5)After treatment,the mean blood flow velocity of ACA,MCA and PCA in the observation group was improved compared with that before treatment(P＜0.05),while there was no significant change in the control group compared with that before treatment(P＞0.05).The improvement of the mean blood flow velocity of ACA,MCA and PCA in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(6)After treatment,the levels of serum 5-HT and MT in the two groups were increased when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the increase in the observation group was superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(7)The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 5.00%(3/60),which was slightly lower than 13.33%(8/60)in the control group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Based on the theory of"muscular atrophy,qi-passage blockage"recorded in Nei Jing,the Chinese herbal medicine for invigorating spleen,activating blood and resolving phlegm exerts certain effect in treating senile insomnia.It can effectively improve the sleep quality and daytime function of patients,enhance sleep efficiency,increase sleep time,reduce the number of awakenings,alleviate the severity of insomnia,improve brain function,and regulate the level of neurotransmitters,with remarkably long-term effect and reliable safety.

Background::Evaluating the impact of digestive system diseases is vital for devising effective prevention strategies. However, comprehensive reports on the burden of digestive system diseases in China are lacking. Our study aimed to provide an overview of the burden and trends of digestive system diseases from 1990 to 2019 in China and its provinces.Methods::This cross-sectional study utilized the Global Disease Burden Study 2019 to estimate the incidence, mortality rate, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years of life disability, years of life lost, and changes in the burden of digestive diseases across Chinese provinces from 1990 to 2019. The analysis of disease burden primarily examines the characteristics of sub-disease distribution, time trends, age distribution, and sex distribution. Additionally, we compared provincial age-standardized DALYs for digestive diseases with the expected rates based on the socio-demographic index (SDI).Results::In 2019, there were 499.2 million cases of digestive system diseases in China, resulting in 1,557,310 deaths. Stomach cancer, colon and rectal cancer, and esophageal cancer are the top three diseases associated with mortality and DALY related to digestive system diseases. Meanwhile, cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and gallbladder and biliary diseases are the top three kinds of diseases with the highest prevalence among digestive system diseases. The risk of gastric cancer sharply increases among men after the age of 40 years, leading to a significant disparity in burden between men and women. As the SDI increased, the DALYs associated with digestive system diseases in China and its provinces showed a downward trend.Conclusion::Our study highlights the inverse correlation between DALYs associated with digestive system diseases and the SDI.
