Objective:To investigate the efficacy of Tanzhuo Decoction in the treatment of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its effect on cystatin C (Cys-C), C-reactive protein (CRP), urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), and creatinine clearance rate (CCr). Methods:Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated by early diabetic nephropathy who received treatment at Maanshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from 2019 to 2021 were included in this randomized controlled study. They were divided into a control group ( n = 40) and a treatment group ( n = 40) using the random number table method. Patients in the control group received conventional therapy including blood glucose and blood pressure control, while those in the treatment group received Tangzhuo Decoction in addition to the same treatment as that given to the control group. Both groups of patients were treated for 30 days. The clinical efficacy as well as pre- and post-treatment Cys-C, CRP, UAER, and CCr were compared between the two groups. Results:The total response rate in the treatment group was 92.5% (37/40), which was significantly higher than 75.0% (30/40) in the control group ( χ2 = 4.50, P < 0.05). After treatment, Cys-C, CRP, and UAER in the treatment group were (2.04 ± 0.08) mg/L, (3.97 ± 1.71) mg/L, and (91.18 ± 18.68) μg/min, respectively, which were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment ( t = 12.14, 5.59, 4.73, all P < 0.05). After treatment, CCr in the treatment group was (56.3 ± 5.01) mL/min, which was significantly increased compared with that before treatment ( t = -8.56, P < 0.05). After treatment, Cys-C, CRP, and UAER in the control group were (2.17 ± 0.04) mg/L, (4.66 ± 1.47) mg/L, and (103.93 ± 22.62) μg/min, respectively, which were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment ( t = 4.05, 5.00, 2.24, all P < 0.05). After treatment, CCr in the control group was (45.9 ± 4.9) mL/min, which was significantly increased compared with that before treatment ( t = -3.98, P < 0.05). There were significant differences in Cys-C, UAER, and CCr between the treatment and control groups ( t = -7.42, -2.29, 7.82, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Tanzhuo Decoction for the treatment of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus has a definite effect. It can effectively reduce levels of Cys-C and UAER, reduce inflammatory reactions, improve kidney function, and delay the progression of kidney injury.

Purpose: Molecular residual disease (MRD) is a promising biomarker in colorectal cancer (CRC) for prognosis and guiding treatment, while the whole-exome sequencing (WES) based tumor-informed assay is standard for evaluating MRD based on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). In this study, we assessed the feasibility of a fixed-panel for evaluating MRD in CRC. Materials and Methods: Seventy-five patients with resectable stage I-III CRC were enrolled. Tumor tissues obtained by surgery, and preoperative and postoperative day 7 blood samples were collected. The ctDNA was evaluated using the tumor-agnostic and tumor-informed fixed assays, as well as the WES-based and panel-based personalized assays in randomly selected patients. Results: The tumor-informed fixed assay had a higher preoperative positive rate than the tumor-agnostic assay (73.3% vs. 57.3%). The preoperative ctDNA status failed to predict disease-free survival (DFS) in either of the fixed assays, while the tumor-informed fixed assay-determined postoperative ctDNA positivity was significantly associated with worse DFS (hazard ratio [HR], 20.74; 95% confidence interval [CI], 7.19 to 59.83; p < 0.001), which was an independent predictor by multivariable analysis (HR, 28.57; 95% CI, 7.10 to 114.9; p < 0.001). Sub-cohort analysis indicated the WES-based personalized assay had the highest preoperative positive rate (95.1%). The two personalized assays and the tumor-informed fixed assay demonstrated same results in postoperative landmark (HR, 26.34; 95% CI, 6.01 to 115.57; p < 0.001), outperforming the tumor-agnostic fixed panel (HR, 3.04; 95% CI, 0.94 to 9.89; p=0.052). Conclusion Our study confirmed the prognostic value of the ctDNA positivity at postoperative day 7 by the tumor-informed fixed panel. The tumor-informed fixed panel may be a cost-effective method to evaluate MRD, which warrants further studies in future.

Linear ubiquitination is an important post-translational modification that has been discovered in recent years. The linear ubiquitin chain is formed by the linkage of glycine residue of one ubiquitin protein to the methionine residue of another ubiquitin. This process is regulated by the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) and the OTU deubiquitinase with linear linkage specificity (OTULIN). Linear ubiquitination is involved in various biological processes, including immune response, inflammation, and cell apoptosis. Recent studies have shown that linear ubiquitination is closely related to the occurrence, development, and drug resistance of tumors by affecting signaling pathways such as NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin. The research progress on the function of LUBAC and OTULIN in tumors was reviewed in this paper.

Age-dependent loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is a feature of sarcopenia, and increases the risk of many aging-related metabolic diseases. Here, we report phenotypic and single-nucleus transcriptomic analyses of non-human primate skeletal muscle aging. A higher transcriptional fluctuation was observed in myonuclei relative to other interstitial cell types, indicating a higher susceptibility of skeletal muscle fiber to aging. We found a downregulation of FOXO3 in aged primate skeletal muscle, and identified FOXO3 as a hub transcription factor maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis. Through the establishment of a complementary experimental pipeline based on a human pluripotent stem cell-derived myotube model, we revealed that silence of FOXO3 accelerates human myotube senescence, whereas genetic activation of endogenous FOXO3 alleviates human myotube aging. Altogether, based on a combination of monkey skeletal muscle and human myotube aging research models, we unraveled the pivotal role of the FOXO3 in safeguarding primate skeletal muscle from aging, providing a comprehensive resource for the development of clinical diagnosis and targeted therapeutic interventions against human skeletal muscle aging and the onset of sarcopenia along with aging-related disorders.

Liver cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) being the most common form of primary liver cancer. Glypican-3 (GPC3) is a cell membrane proteoglycan which is rarely expressed in normal adult tissues but is specifically upregulated in HCC, which makes GPC3 a reliable target for the diagnosis and treatment of HCC. The role of GPC3 in the regulation of cancer development through Wnt, YAP, hedgehog and other signaling pathways were reviewed in this article. GPC3-targeted therapies, such as monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, tumor vaccines, immunotoxins, CAR-T cells, and photosensitizer therapy were also summarized. These treatment methods offered promising approaches for HCC treatment and future treatment strategies for HCC based on GPC3 were prospected in this paper.
