ObjectiveBiochemistry and Molecular Biology, a discipline that elucidates life phenomena at the molecular level, serves as a core foundational course in medical education. It provides the theoretical basis for studying other basic and clinical medical subjects, as well as for understanding pathogenesis, disease diagnosis, and treatment. However, its complex content and highly abstract concepts have posed a dual challenge to traditional teaching models: “inefficient instruction” and “inadequate learning outcomes”. Within limited classroom hours, how to engage students and stimulate their intrinsic motivation, and how to help them recognize, understand, and develop a passion for biochemistry from the perspective of the discipline’s essence, have long been key focuses of curriculum research. MethodsUsing the lipid metabolism chapter as an example, this study employs “Rain Classroom”, a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted platform, to support education in four dimensions: teaching, learning, evaluation, and research. In teaching, it assists instructors through virtual experiments, lesson preparation support, knowledge mapping, and assignment design. For learning, it serves as an intelligent study assistant for students, providing automated assignment review, enabling educational resource sharing, and facilitating personalized learning pathways. In evaluation, the platform automates assignment grading, analyzes student performance data, and offers diagnostic feedback and teaching recommendations. In research, it aids educators in collecting and analyzing teaching data, as well as searching for and summarizing relevant literature. ResultsThe results indicate that an educational model integrating teacher-led instruction, student-centered learning, and generative AI assistance significantly enhances teaching quality, students’ self-directed learning abilities, and knowledge mastery. Furthermore, with the support of generative AI, curriculum-based ideological education—focusing on cutting-edge disciplinary advances and topical medical issues—helps cultivate students’ medical spirit of “honoring life and healing the wounded”, thereby fostering the establishment of appropriate professional values. Finally, while generative AI presents both opportunities and challenges for higher education, this study also analyzes potential risks in its teaching applications, emphasizing the need for both instructors and students to avoid over-reliance and to ensure that technological tools consistently serve the fundamental goals of education. ConclusionThis study demonstrates that integrating generative AI, specifically via the “Rain Classroom” platform, can effectively enhance biochemistry education. By supporting teaching, learning, evaluation, and research, this approach improves both educational effectiveness and student outcomes. It also facilitates the incorporation of cutting-edge knowledge and professional ethics, nurturing a patient-centered mindset. Additionally, the study addresses potential implementation risks to ensure that such technological tools remain aligned with the core purpose of education.

It is very limited that the benefit of perioperative chemotherapy in early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the 5-year survival rate is only 5% higher than surgery. Antibodies that block programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 significantly improve the survival of advanced NSCLC. The value of immunotherapy in early NSCLC is also being explored. This paper firstly summarized and analyzed the progress of immunotherapy in the perioperative period of NSCLC. Secondly, the safety and feasibility of surgical resection after neoadjuvant immunotherapy were discussed. Finally, the clinical value of different therapeutic efficacy prediction indicators was summarized, in order to clarify the current status of immunotherapy in the perioperative period, so as to improve the clinical benefits of early NSCLC patients.

Delayed wound healing in diabetes, which is caused by systemic metabolic disorders and local chronic inflammation, is a common complication of the disease. A critical issue is the impaired polarization of macrophages during the wound healing process, leading to prolonged inflammation and hindering the transition to the repair phase. This review systematically summarizes the polarization states of macrophages in diabetic wounds and their essential roles in wound healing. It highlights recent advances in macrophage reprogramming, which facilitates the shift from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory phenotypes, thereby promoting wound healing. Furthermore, the potential applications of biomaterials based on macrophage reprogramming mechanisms are discussed, emphasizing their role in regulating the wound microenvironment and enhancing the healing process. This review provides theoretical insights and practical guidance for improving the treatment of diabetic wounds.

BACKGROUND:Stem cell transplantation has a promising therapeutic prospect in the treatment of myocardial infarction,but the efficacy of stem cell transplantation is limited by the low homing efficiency of transplanted cells to the heart and the low retention rate and survival rate in the heart.Exercise therapy is an important integral component of cardiac rehabilitation for patients with myocardial infarction.However,the role of exercise in stem cell therapy for myocardial infarction has not yet been clarified.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of exercise(including acute exercise and chronic exercise)on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in rats with myocardial infarction.METHODS:Eighty female SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,transplantation group or combination group with random number table method(n=20).Myocardial infarction model of rats in model group,transplantation group,or combination group was made by coronary artery ligation.24 hours after the model was made,the combination group underwent aerobic exercise for 8 weeks(chronic exercise,30 min/d,5 days per week),and within 5 minutes after the first exercise(acute exercise).SD rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells labeled with green fluorescent protein were injected into the tail vein of the transplantation group and the combination group.A part of animals from each group were taken 24 hours after the first exercise.The survival rate of stem cells transplanted into rat myocardium,sex-determining region of Y,protein expression of homing factors,oxidative stress,and inflammatory response parameters were measured.After 72 hours of the last exercise,the remaining rats were taken to detect cardiac structure and function,myocardial histological changes,and the number of Ki67+cells.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After acute exercise:Compared with sham operation group,myocardial reactive oxygen species level,malondialdehyde content,tumor necrosis factor-α,and interleukin-1β protein expression increased(P<0.05),and superoxide dismutase activity decreased(P<0.05)in model group.Compared with model group,reactive oxygen species,malondialdehyde content,tumor necrosis factor-α,and interleukin-1β protein expression reduced(P<0.05),superoxidation dismutase activity,stromal cell-derived factor 1α,and CXC chemokine receptor 4 protein expression increased(P<0.05)in transplantation and combination groups.Compared with the transplantation group,reactive oxygen species,malondialdehyde content,tumor necrosis factor-α,and interleukin-1β protein expression decreased(P<0.05),stem cell survival rate,sex-determining region of Y mRNA expression,superoxide dismutase activity,stromal cell-derived factor 1α,and CXC chemokine receptor 4 protein expression increased(P<0.05)in combination group.(2)After chronic exercise:Compared with sham operation group,cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area and collagen content increased(P<0.05),left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular short-axis shortening rate decreased(P<0.05)in model group.Compared with model group,cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area and collagen content decreased(P<0.05),Ki67+cells increased(P<0.05)in transplantation group.Compared with transplantation group,collagen content decreased(P<0.05),cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area,left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular short-axis shortening rate,and Ki67+cells increased(P<0.05)in the combination group.(3)Acute exercise improves the survival rate of exogenous stem cells by promoting stem cell homing and improving myocardial microenvironment,while chronic exercise can stimulate cardiomyocyte proliferation,inhibit cardiac remodeling,and enhance cardiac function after stem cell transplantation.Therefore,exercise can help to optimize the efficacy of stem cell transplantation after myocardial infarction in rats.

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)expresses abundant glycolytic enzymes and displays comprehensive glucose metabolism reprogramming.Aldolase A(ALDOA)plays a prominent role in glycolysis;however,little is known about its role in HCC development.In the present study,we aim to explore how ALDOA is involved in HCC proliferation.HCC proliferation was markedly suppressed both in vitro and in vivo following ALDOA knockout,which is consistent with ALDOA overexpression encouraging HCC prolifera-tion.Mechanistically,ALDOA knockout partially limits the glycolytic flux in HCC cells.Meanwhile,ALDOA translocated to nuclei and directly interacted with c-Jun to facilitate its Thr93 phosphorylation by P21-activated protein kinase;ALDOA knockout markedly diminished c-Jun Thr93 phosphorylation and then dampened c-Jun transcription function.A crucial site Y364 mutation in ALDOA disrupted its interaction with c-Jun,and Y364S ALDOA expression failed to rescue cell proliferation in ALDOA deletion cells.In HCC patients,the expression level of ALDOA was correlated with the phosphorylation level of c-Jun(Thr93)and poor prognosis.Remarkably,hepatic ALDOA was significantly upregulated in the promotion and progression stages of diethylnitrosamine-induced HCC models,and the knockdown of Aldoa strikingly decreased HCC development in vivo.Our study demonstrated that ALDOA is a vital driver for HCC development by activating c-Jun-mediated oncogene transcription,opening additional avenues for anti-cancer therapies.

G protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs)are the largest family of membrane proteins in eukaryotes,with nearly 800 genes coding for these proteins.They are involved in many physiological processes,such as light perception,taste and smell,neurotransmitter,metabolism,endocrine and exocrine,cell growth and migration.Importantly,GPCRs and their ligands are the targets of approximately one third of all mar-keted drugs.GPCRs are traditionally known for their role in transmitting signals from the extracellular environment to the cell's interior via the plasma membrane.However,emerging evidence suggests that GPCRs are also localized on mitochondria,where they play critical roles in modulating mitochondrial functions.These mitochondrial GPCRs(mGPCRs)can influence processes such as mitochondrial respi-ration,apoptosis,and reactive oxygen species(ROS)production.By interacting with mitochondrial signaling pathways,mGPCRs contribute to the regulation of energy metabolism and cell survival.Their presence on mitochondria adds a new layer of complexity to the understanding of cellular signaling,highlighting the organelle's role as not just an energy powerhouse but also a crucial hub for signal transduction.This expanding understanding of mGPCR function on mitochondria opens new avenues for research,particularly in the context of diseases where mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role.Ab-normalities in the phase conductance pathway of GPCRs located on mitochondria are closely associated with the development of systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease,diabetes,obesity and Alz-heimer's disease.In this review,we examined the various types of GPCRs identified on mitochondrial membranes and analyzed the complex relationships between mGPCRs and the pathogenesis of various diseases.We aim to provide a clearer understanding of the emerging significance of mGPCRs in health and disease,and to underscore their potential as therapeutic targets in the treatment of these conditions.
