ObjectiveTo unveil the mechanism of Jianpi Huogu prescription （JPHGP） in ameliorating the dyslipidemia of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femur head （SONFH） by oxylipidomics combined with transcriptomics. MethodsSixty SD rats were assigned into normal， model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.5， 5， 10 g·kg^-1， respectively） JPHGP， and Jiangushengwan （1.53 g·kg^-1） groups. Lipopolysaccharide was injected into the tail vein at a dose of 20 μg·kg^-1 on days 1 and 2， and methylprednisolone sodium succinate was injected at a dose of 40 mg·kg^-1 into the buttock muscle on days 3 to 5. The normal group received an equal volume of normal saline. Drug administration by gavage began 4 weeks after the last injection， and samples were taken after administration for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to reveal the histopathological changes of the femoral head， and the number of adipocytes， the rate of empty bone lacunae， and the trabecular area were calculated. Micro-computed tomography was used for revealing the histological and histomorphometrical changes of the femoral head. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the serum levels of triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， low-density lipoprotein （LDL）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）， apolipoprotein A1 （ApoA1）， and apolipoprotein B （ApoB）. At the same time， the femoral head was collected for oxylipidomic and transcriptomic detection. The differential metabolites and differential genes were enriched and analyzed， and the target genes regulating lipid metabolism were predicted. The predicted target proteins were further verified by molecular docking， immunohistochemistry， and Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showcased thinning of the femoral head， trabecular fracture， karyopyknosis， subchondral cystic degeneration， increases in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae （P<0.01）， a reduction in the trabecular area （P<0.01）， decreases in BMD， Tb.Th， Tb.N， and BV/TV， and increases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the JPHGP groups showed no obvious thinning of the femoral head or subchondroidal cystic degeneration. The high- and medium-dose JPHGP groups presented declines in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae， an increase in the trabecular area （P<0.05， P<0.01）， rises in BMD， Tb.Th， Tb.N， and BV/TV， and decreases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the model group showcased raised serum levels of TG， TC， LDL， and ApoB and lowered serum levels of HDL and ApoA1 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the JPHGP groups had lowered serum levels of TG， TC， LDL， and ApoB （P<0.05， P<0.01） and a risen serum level of ApoA1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， the serum level of HDL in the high-dose JPHGP group increased （P<0.01）. A total of 19 different metabolites of disease set and drug set were screened out by oxylipidomics of the femoral head， and 119 core genes with restored expression were detected by transcriptomics. The enriched pathways were mainly concentrated in inflammation， lipids， apoptosis， and osteoclast differentiation. Molecular docking， immunohistochemistry， and Western blot results showed that compared with the normal group， the model group displayed increased content of 5-lipoxygenase （5-LO） and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ （PPARγ） in the femoral head （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， medium- and high-dose JPHGP reduced the content of 5-LO and PPARγ （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionJPHGP can restore the levels of oxidized lipid metabolites by regulating the 5-LO-PPARγ axis to treat SONFH in rats. Relevant studies provide experimental evidence for the efficacy mechanism of JPHGP in the treatment of SONFH.

In this work, starting from 4-hydroxycoumarin, three series of 22 coumarin derivatives, among which 8 have not been reported in the literature, were synthesized and their in vitro anti-inflammatory activities and mechanisms of action were preliminarily investigated using mouse macrophage model. The results showed that most of the derivatives could significantly inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory factor NO, with compounds 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i, 2j, 4e, and 4f showing better anti-inflammatory activity than the positive control drug dexamethasone. Further experiments showed that compounds 2h and 4f significantly inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory factors IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β in RAW264.7 macrophages, and could, therefore, be used as lead compounds for further studies.

Objective: To explore the interactive mechanisms of middle school students lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms, so as to provide a basis for constructing a precise prevention system of middle school students mental health. Methods: From October to December in 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 6 251 middle school students from Guangxi. The Lifestyle Questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 ( GAD- 7) were used to investigate middle school students lifestyle, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms. The relationship of adolescent lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms was analyzed through binary Logistic regression. The network analysis method was used to construct the network of middle school students lifestyle with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Results: A total of 1 690 individuals (27.0%) exhibited depressive symptoms, and 1 071 individuals (17.1%) exhibited anxiety symptoms. Binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that smoking, alcohol consumption, excessive intake of sugary drinks, insufficient vegetable intake, not eating breakfast daily, frequent consumption of fast food, prolonged sedentary time on both weekdays and weekends, insufficient sleep duration on weekdays and weekends, and excessive screen time on weekdays were all associated with depressive symptom ( OR =1.19-2.07) and anxiety symptom ( OR =1.20-1.91) in middle school students(all P ＜0.05). Additionally, excessive screen time on weekends was associated only with depressive symptoms ( OR =1.35, P <0.05). The connection between the lifestyle-depressive symptom cluster was mainly through "breakfast" and "suicidal ideation" (weight=0.31); the connection between the lifestyle-anxiety symptom cluster was mainly through "sedentary time on weekdays" and "uncontrollable worry" (weight=0.34). In the depressive symptom network, "depressed mood" had the highest node strength; in the anxiety symptom network, "uncontrollable worry" had the highest node strength. "Suicidal ideation" was a key bridge node between lifestyle and depressive and anxiety symptoms. Conclusions Unhealthy lifestyles are significant modifiable risk factors for depressive and anxiety symptoms among middle school students. Regular breakfast intake and management of sedentary behavior should be prioritized as important intervention entry points.

Extensive evidence has demonstrated that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) can ameliorate obesity. Our previous studies revealed that (Ex-4)₂-Fc, a long-acting GLP-1RA we developed, depends on the leptin pathway to treat obesity. However, the mechanisms linking (Ex-4)₂-Fc and leptin resistance remain largely unclear. To address this question, we explored the mechanism of GLP-1RAs from the perspective of the gut microbiota, as increasing evidence indicates an important link between the gut microbiota and obesity. This study aimed to explore the potential role of the gut microbiota in the treatment of GLP-1RAs. We found that (Ex-4)₂-Fc treatment reshaped obesity-induced gut microbiota disturbances and substantially increased the abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila (Am). In addition, (Ex-4)₂-Fc did not respond well in antibiotic-treated (ATB) Obese mice. Subsequent studies have shown that this defect can be overcome by gavage with Am. In addition, we found that Am enhanced (Ex-4)₂-Fc therapy by producing the metabolite inosine. Inosine regulates the macrophage adenosine A2A receptor (A2A) pathway to indirectly reduce leptin levels in adipocytes Thus, elucidating the role of metabolites in regulating the leptin pathway will provide new insights into GLP-1RAs therapy and may lead to more effective strategies for guiding the clinical use of antidiabetic agents.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and genetic characteristics of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) of lung and CCAM associated lung cancer in adults.Methods:A total of 13 cases of CCAM of lung in adults, diagnosed from June 2015 to May 2023, were collected from the Department of Pathology, Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, China. Their histopathological features were correlated with probable development into lung cancer. Next-generation sequencing was performed on the benign and malignant areas of all cases.Results:The pathological classification of all cases were of CCAM of lung type 1. There were 4 male and 9 female cases, age ranged from 18 to 65 years, with a mean age of 41 years. Six cases were accompanied by lung cancer, all of them were mucinous adenocarcinoma. Next-generation sequencing showed no gene mutation in 2 of the 13 cases; KRAS mutations in exon 2 were detected in 7 cases, in which there were 6 cases complicated with lung mucinous adenocarcinoma and no matter in the malignant or benign regions, the same case exhibited the same mutation sites in KRAS gene.Conclusions:CCAM of the lung is a congenital disease, and in adults, type 1 is most commonly found in the pathological classification, and it is often accompanied by cancer. Gene mutations are frequently detected in CCAM of the lung, KRAS being the most recurrent mutation which may play an important role in the carcinogenesis.

Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of semaglutide with dulaglutide in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted to include patients with type 2 diabetes who received semaglutide or dulaglutide treatment at three hospitals between April 2021 and July 2023 in the study.The patients were divided into the semaglutide group(SEMA group)and the dulaglutide group(DULA group)based on their treatment.Propensity score matching was used to pair the two groups in a 1:1 ratio,aligning them based on baseline characteristics such as gender,age,body mass index,blood glucose levels,duration of diabetes,and complications.Various parameters including fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),serum creatinine,urea nitrogen levels,estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(UACR),and occurrences of adverse reactions were assessed at 3,6,9,and 12 months after the treatment.Results After propensity score matching,98 patients were included in both the SEMA and DULA groups,showing no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the groups(P＞0.05).At each follow-up point,the fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose,and HbA1c levels of both groups showed a significant decrease compared to the baseline(P≤0.05).The inter-group comparison revealed no statistically significant differences in the changes in fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose,and HbA1c levels between the two groups(P＞0.05).At the 6th month,the SEMA group exhibited a statistically significant higher rate of HbA1c＜7％compared to the DULA group(P＜0.05).In the SEMA group,serum creatinine and urea nitrogen decreased significantly at the 6th month compared to baseline,while eGFR showed an increase at the 3rd and 6th month,and UACR decreased,all with statistical significance(P＜0.05).In the DULA group,there was a statistically significant increase in serum creatinine and decrease at the 3rd and 6th months in eGFR,respectively.Additionally,urea nitrogen levels decreased significantly at the 9th month,all differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The inter-group comparison revealed that at the 3rd and 6th month,the SEMA group exhibited a greater reduction in serum creatinine levels compared to the DULA group.Additionally,the SEMA group demonstrated a more pronounced increase in eGFR levels than the DULA group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).At the 6th month,the SEMA group exhibited a significantly greater decrease in UACR and a significantly lower incidence of renal insufficiency compared to the DULA group(P＜0.05).There were no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Semaglutide and dulaglutide can significantly improve blood glucose control,exhibit comparable effectiveness and safety in lowering blood glucose levels,and semaglutide has a potentially protective effect on renal function.

Objective To analyze the onset time and short-term clinical effect of rituximab(RTX)in the treatment of glomerular diseases.Methods All case data of rituximab used in the treatment of glomerular diseases in a tertiary hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were extracted for retrospective study.The changes in blood routine,liver function,kidney function,immunity and other related indexes were analyzed after the treatment of RTX and the clinical effect in the short term was observed.Results A total of 52 patients were collected,of which 30 received RTX standardized therapy.During the follow-up period,plasma albumin showed an upward trend,and the 24-hour urine protein and B cell count showed a downward trend.The values of these indexes after 3 months and 6 months after treatment were significantly different from those before treatment,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).The clinical response rates after the first injection,the second injection,the third injection,the fourth injection,3 months later,and 6 months after RTX treatment were 26.92%,36.00%,51.85%,57.69%,76.92% and 81.82%,respectively.No serious adverse effects occurred during the follow-up period.Conclusions RTX can improve 24-hour urine protein,plasma albumin level and B cell count in glomerular-related diseases,stabilize renal functionand have good safety.

Background and purpose:Tumor-associated macrophages(TAM)as the main stromal cells in the tumor microenvironment play an important role in tumor progression.This study aimed to explore the clinical significance of M1 type TAM infiltration in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods:We collected tissue paraffin samples from 320 HCC patients who underwent surgery at the Affiliated Nantong Hospital Three of Nantong University from January 2012 to December 2020.Immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the distribution of CD86 labeled M1 type TAM in HCC tissues,and positive cell density was calculated.Groups were established according to cell density,high-density group had cells with greater than average density(29 cells/mm2),and low-density group had cells with less than or equal to average density.The correlation and prognostic significance of M1 TAM density with clinicopathologic features and tumor infiltrating CD8+T lymphocytes of HCC were analyzed.Using immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of programmed death ligand-1(PD-L1),the cases were divided into four groups based on the cell density of CD86 and PD-L1.In the CD86+high-density group,PD-L1 high-density(CD86highPD-L1high)and PD-L1 low-density(CD86highPD-L1low)groups were included.In the CD86+low-density group,the PD-L1 high-density(CD86lowPD-L1high)and PD-L1 low-density(CD86lowPD-L1low)groups were included.We analyzed the prognostic significance of CD86+M1 type TAM density combined with PD-L1 expression.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Affiliated Nantong Hospital Three of Nantong University(ethics number:EK2022005).Results:CD86+M1 type TAM was mainly distributed in the tumor stroma.Its high-density rate was 44.7%(143/320).The density of CD86+M1 type TAM was positively correlated with tumor infiltrating CD8+T lymphocyte density(P＜0.001)and negatively correlated with hepatitis B virus surface antigen(HBsAg)positivity(P=0.003),and had no significant correlation with clinical and pathological features such as patient age,gender,cirrhosis,tumor size,histological grading and microvascular invasion.The CD86+M1 type TAM high-density group had better overall survival(OS)and disease-free survival(DFS)than the low-density group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.001).Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that low-density CD86+M1 type TAM was an independent risk factor for evaluating OS and DFS(OS:HR=1.468,P=0.022;DFS:HR=2.233,P＜0.001).The CD86highPD-L1high group had poor OS and DFS than the CD86highPD-L1low group,and the differences were statistically significant(both P＜0.05).The CD86lowPD-L1high group had poor OS and DFS than the CD86lowPD-L1low group.The difference in OS between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05),while the difference in DFS was not statistically significant.Conclusion:The presence of high-density CD86+M1 type TAM in HCC tissue suggests a good prognosis and is an independent prognostic factor.Expression of PD-L1 in HCC tissue suggests increased invasiveness and poorer prognosis.
