ObjectiveThis study aims to systematically analyze the blood-absorbed components and metabolic profiles of Xiebaisan（XBS） in normal and chronic bronchitis （CB） mice using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS）， while comparing differences between the two states. MethodsThirty female BABL/c mice were randomly divided into the normal group， the normal drug administration group， the CB group， the CB drug administration group and the dexamethasone group， with 6 mice in each group. The CB mouse model was established by inducing with ovalbumin （OVA）. The mice in the normal drug administration group and the CB drug administration group started to be gavaged with XBS（13.2 g·kg^-1） from the 21^st day， and the dexamethasone group mice were simultaneously gavaged with dexamethasone （0.5 mg·kg^-1） until the end of the 35^th day of the experiment. Subsequently， serum samples were collected and evaluated for their efficacy， based on the pharmacological evaluation indicators， to determine the efficacy of XBS in treating CB. Then the UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS was employed to identify and analyze the chemical constituents， blood-absorbed components， and metabolites of XBS. Chemometric analysis was conducted to reveal metabolic profile differences under "dual states". Concurrently， Real-time PCR technology was utilized to detect the expression levels of key liver metabolic enzymes CYP2E1， CYP3A1， UGT1A1， and UGT1A6. ResultsA total of 28 prototype components and 158 metabolites （including 48 phase Ⅰ metabolites and 110 phase Ⅱ metabolites） of XBS were unambiguously identified in the serum of normal mice. Additionally， a comprehensive characterization was performed on a total of 32 prototype components and 178 metabolites （including 50 phase Ⅰ metabolites and 128 phase Ⅱ metabolites） of XBS in the serum of CB mice. Among them， 27 prototype components were detected in both states， including 12 flavonoids， 2 alkaloids， 3 triterpenes， 4 organic acids， 3 amides， 1 stilbene and 2 other compounds. The chemometrics analysis revealed no significant difference in the prototype components and metabolites of XBS between normal and CB mice； however， there was a significant increase in the in-vivo exposure of XBS in CB mice. Compared to normal mice， the levels of phase Ⅰ metabolites such as oxidation， reduction and methylation of blood components of XBS as well as phase Ⅱ metabolites of glucuronidation showed significant changes in CB mice. Real-time PCR further confirmed that these alterations were attributed to the upregulation of CYP2E1 （P<0.05）， CYP3A1 （P>0.05）， UGT1A1 （P<0.01） and UGT1A6 （P<0.01） enzymes expression in the liver of CB mice. ConclusionThis study elucidated the disparities in the levels of the blood-absorbed components and metabolic profiles of XBS in normal and CB mice， especially in oxidation， reduction， methylation in phase Ⅰ metabolism and glucoaldehyde acidification in phase Ⅱ metabolism. And there are related to the differences in the expression levels of phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ metabolic enzymes CYP2E1， CYP3A1， UGT1A1 and UGT1A6 in the liver.

Objective: To study the effect of nano hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (nano-HBOC) on radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells. Methods: Using 95% N and 5% CO , a lung cancer cell line was constructed in a hypoxic environment, and H385 cells were treated with different concentrations of nano-HBOC and irradiated (4Gy) by an irradiator, and the IC50 concentration was calculated. The cells were detected by flow cytometry (reactive oxygen species, ROS) ROS test. Using GEO database, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was carried out to predict possible pathways. The levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe were observed by fluorescence microscope, and the proteins related to iron death pathway were detected by Western-blot. Results: Compared with the control cells, the activity and density of the cells were significantly decreased by nano-HBOC combined with radiotherapy, with a notable proportion of cells exhibiting deteriorated status. There is a positive correlation between ROS level and nano-HBOC concentration, especially after radiotherapy. Radiotherapy combined with nano-HBOC significantly increased the levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe in H385 cells, while decreasing the levels of iron death pathway proteins slc7a11 and GPX4, and increasing the level of ACSL4. Conclusion: Nano-HBOC enhances the radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells.

Objective:To investigate the potential characteristic manifestations and application value of the Dynamic Visual Acuity Test（DVAT） in vestibular migraine（VM）. Methods:A total of 50 VM patients（case group） and 50 healthy subjects（control group） diagnosed at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between November 1, 2023, and December 31, 2024, were enrolled. The case group underwent DVAT, video head impulse test（vHIT）, caloric test, and Dizziness Handicap Inventory（DHI） assessment, whereas the control group only received DVAT. Group-based analyses were conducted to examine the effect of age on Dynamic Visual Acuity Loss（DVALoss）, as well as the correlations of DVALoss with vestibular function tests and DHI scores. Results:DVALoss in the case group was significantly higher than that in the control group（P<0.001）. In both groups, age was significantly and positively correlated with DVALoss（P<0.001）. Within the case group, DVALoss was strongly and positively correlated with DHI scores（r=0.807, P<0.001）; it was negatively correlated with the vestibulo-ocular reflex（VOR） gain in vHIT, though without clinical significance, and showed no significant association with the caloric test. Age and DVALoss collectively accounted for 71.3% of the variance in DHI scores（R²=0.713）, with age exerting a relatively minor actual impact. Conclusion:DVAT can sensitively identify the core functional impairments of VM. DVALoss, as a direct functional reflection of the pathological mechanism of VM, is strongly correlated with DHI scores. Incorporating DVALoss into standardized assessments may provide an objective basis for the diagnosis and management of VM.

Plant-derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs), describe a group of nanoparticles released by plants. These particles are characterized by a lipid bilayer structure containing various proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and unique metabolites. Although the study on PDEVs is relatively new, having only been around for ten years, they have shown promising development prospects in both basic research and clinical transformation areas. Evidence suggests that PDEVs have excellent application prospects in regulating inflammation and treating tumors. Their distinctive, vesicle-mimicking architecture and stellar biocompatibility render them prime candidates for ferrying various anti-cancer agents, including RNA, proteins, and conventional chemotherapy drugs. Increasingly, studies have shown that PDEVs can be engineered as an innovative platform for combination cancer immunotherapy. Consequently, this paper provides an extensive summary of current developments in engineering methods and strategies for PDEVs in cancer treatment and combined cancer immune therapeutics. The essential characteristics of PDEVs, including the biogenesis process and components, as well as their anti-tumor activity and mechanism, are summarized. Finally, the in vivo safety of PDEVs as delivery vectors and the challenges of scale-up production and clinical transformation are discussed.

Necroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, initiates a series of biological responses and further culminates in necroinflammatory processes, consequently limiting the efficacy of cytokine antagonists in treating inflammatory diseases. To address this issue, DNAzyme R3-Dz specifically targeting receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3) mRNA, a necrosome component, has been successfully developed and studied to elucidate the mechanism in cleaving its target mRNA. Then a polyamidoamine (PAMAM) derivative was constructed through the modification of nucleobase analog (termed AP) to achieve the R3-Dz delivery to macrophages. The AP/R3-Dz nanoparticles effectively downregulated the RIP3 expression, leading to subsequent decrease in the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), ultimately inhibiting the necroinflammatory processes mediated by the NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3). Finally, AP/R3-Dz nanoparticles and their combination with the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppressed the necrotic phenotype and ameliorated the disease progression in diverse models, including gouty arthritis, autoimmune hepatitis and rheumatoid arthritis. In summary, the AP/R3-Dz nanoparticles in combination with MCC950 have been demonstrated to achieve the intervention in necroptosis and inflammation by dual disruption of the intricate feedback loop of necroinflammation and thus have promising potential in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

BACKGROUND:Mitochond rial biogenesis in skeletal muscle and its regulatory mechanisms during exercise have become focal points of research.Pathways such as AMP-activated protein kinase,peroxisome proliferator-activated receptory coactivator 1α,mitogen-activated protein kinase,calcium-regulated signaling play profound roles in exercise-induced mitochondrial biogenesis,impacting muscle metabolic optimization,enhanced athletic performance,and the prevention of metabolic diseases.However,the interactions among these pathways,their regulatory mechanisms,and their comprehensive effects on exercise-induced mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle remain unclear.OBJECTIVE:To explore the signaling pathways related to mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle,precisely analyze the induction and regulatory details of exercise within these pathways,and clearly elucidate the principles by which exercise-activated signaling pathways promote mitochondrial generation and functional enhancement.This will establish a theoretical foundation for improving muscle metabolism,enhancing exercise efficiency,and preventing metabolic diseases.METHODS:An extensive literature search was conducted using China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),WanFang,VIP,PubMed,and Web of Science.The latest publications related to mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle and its regulatory mechanisms were collected from inception to August 2024.By integrating findings from multiple signaling pathways,the regulatory mechanisms of exercise on mitochondrial biogenesis were systematically reviewed,with a focus on the interactions and synergistic mechanisms of AMP-activated protein kinase,peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor y coactivator 1α,protein kinase A,mitogen-activated protein kinase,calcium-regulated signaling pathways.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle is a complex biological process involving the coordinated regulation of multiple signaling pathways.This process aims to optimize the metabolic capacity,fatigue resistance,and overall athletic performance of skeletal muscle in response to changes in energy demand and external stress.The core mechanisms include the interactions and regulation of key factors such as AMP-activated protein kinase,peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α,and mitogen-activated protein kinase.(2)AMP-activated protein kinase senses the cellular energy status and activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α,thereby promoting mitochondrial biogenesis.Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α,as the main regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle,can modulate the synthesis of mitochondrial proteins and DNA,enhance the antioxidant stress response,and improve mitochondrial function.(3)The mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway,particularly p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase,further promotes mitochondrial generation by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α during stress responses.(4)Additionally,calcium signaling and protein kinase A pathways play significant roles in the metabolic regulation of skeletal muscle.(5)Exercise can significantly enhance mitochondrial biogenesis capacity in skeletal muscle by activating these multiple signaling pathways,optimizing cellular metabolic efficiency,increasing muscle endurance,and improving athletic performance.(6)Future research should focus on in-depth exploration of the interaction mechanisms among AMP-activated protein kinase,peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator1α,mitogen-activated protein kinases,and calcium signaling under different exercise intensities and modalities;strengthen studies across diverse age groups,genders,and health conditions;validate the universality and population-specificity of research findings;investigate the intricate mechanisms of emerging regulatory factors such as FNIP1 and PERM1 and their potential in exercise interventions;and promote the translation of exercise health research outcomes into clinical applications.
