Liver fibrosis is caused by various factors such as viral infection， alcohol intake， and metabolism-related damage， leading to the replacement of normal tissue by fibrous scars. As a regulatory factor for cell proliferation， insulin-like growth factor 1 （IGF-1） participates in the regulation of cell cycle， the promotion of cell proliferation and differentiation， and the inhibition of cell apoptosis by binding to its receptor insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor （IGF-1R）. Studies have shown that the IGF-1/IGF-1R signaling pathway can regulate the process of liver fibrosis by affecting the senescence and apoptosis of hepatocytes， the activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells， and the dysfunction of endothelial cells. In addition， the IGF-1/IGF-1R signaling system can also regulate multiple mechanisms such as DNA damage repair， cell proliferation， lipid metabolism， cell senescence， and oxidative stress， thereby providing new strategies and potential targets for the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis. This article summarizes the mechanism of action of IGF-1/IGF-1R and its signal transduction system in mediating liver fibrosis by regulating DNA damage repair in different cells， in order to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） is a highly prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide， and the mechanism underlying its progression to metabolic associated steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis remain unclear. Endoplasmic reticulum stress （ERS） and ferroptosis （Fer） are deeply involved in the pathological evolution of MAFLD. This article systematically reviews the core regulatory mechanisms of ERS and its role in regulating lipid metabolism， inflammation response， and cell apoptosis in MAFLD. It also analyzes the core mechanism of Fer and discusses the predisposing factors for Fer in the pathological microenvironment of MAFLD， as well as the role of Fer in exacerbating hepatocyte death and activating the progression of liver fibrosis. This article proposes that the crosstalk between ERS and Fer is a key driver for the progression of MAFLD， which provides new references and ideas for the clinical intervention of MAFLD.

Liraglutide (Lira), a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist approved for diabetes and obesity, has shown significant potential in treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, its systematic molecular regulation and mechanisms remain underexplored. In this study, a mouse model of MASLD was developed using a high-fat diet (HFD), followed by Lira administration. Proteomics and glycoproteomics were analyzed using label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), while potential molecular target analysis was conducted via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and Western blotting. Our results revealed that Lira treatment significantly reduced liver weight and serum markers, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and others, with glycosylation changes playing a more significant role than overall protein expression. The glycoproteome identified 255 independent glycosylation sites, emphasizing the impact of Lira on amino acid, carbohydrate metabolism, and ferroptosis. Simultaneously, proteomic analysis highlighted its effects on lipid metabolism and fibrosis pathways. 21 signature molecules, including 7 proteins and 14 N-glycosylation sites (N-glycosites), were identified as potential targets. A Lira hydrogel formulation (Lira@fibrin (Fib) Gel) was developed to extend drug dosing intervals, offering enhanced therapeutic efficacy in managing chronic metabolic diseases. Our study demonstrated the importance of glycosylation regulation in the therapeutic effects of Lira on MASLD, identifying potential molecular targets and advancing its clinical application for MASLD treatment.

Hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）， as the sixth most common malignant tumor worldwide， poses a serious threat to human health due to its insidious onset and high mortality rate. This article reviews the molecular mechanisms and intervention strategies of gut microbiota （GM） homeostasis in the development and progression of HCC， in order to provide new ideas for the intervention and treatment of HCC. Studies have shown that GM dysbiosis， intestinal leakage， microbial-associated molecular pattern， bacterial translocation， and metabolic products play key roles in the progression of HCC. GM imbalance may lead to immune escape， thereby promoting tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. This article elaborates on the association between GM and HCC， deeply analyzes the mechanism of action of GM in the development and progression of HCC， investigates the role of bile acid-related metabolites， short-chain fatty acid-related metabolites， and other metabolites in HCC， and explores the strategies for targeting GM in the treatment of HCC， including probiotics， prebiotics， antibiotics， Toll-like receptor 4 antagonists， and fecal microbiota transplantation. This article emphasizes that maintaining the integrity of the intestinal barrier and GM homeostasis is of great significance in the prevention and treatment of HCC， which provides a direction for developing new diagnosis and treatment strategies.

BACKGROUND:The induced membrane technique(Masquelet technique)is a novel two-stage surgical approach for the reconstruction of large bone defects,gaining increasing popularity in clinical applications.However,the precise mechanism underlying its bone defect repair is still not fully understood.OBJECTIVE:To review the background,repair mechanism and advantages of the induced membrane technique,the characteristics of the induced membrane,membrane-bone graft communication,selection of animal models,types and morphology of bone cement,the effects of loaded antibiotics on the induced membrane,choice of fixation methods,and bone tissue engineering materials to provide new insights for the future treatment of critical-sized bone defects and the improvement of the induced membrane technique.METHODS:A literature search was conducted in PubMed,Web of Science,and CNKI databases,covering publications from 1986 to 2024.A total of 890 references were retrieved.Manual screening and analysis were performed based on inclusion criteria related to the fundamental research of induced membrane technique,excluding those with poor relevance to the topic and duplicates.The included literature comprised original experimental studies,reviews,meta-analyses and other relevant publications.Finally,72 articles were included for summary and analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The mechanism underlying the bone defect repair using this technique remains unclear,but both the membrane and bone grafting are indispensable.(2)The induced membrane is a distinctively layered tissue rich in various bone-forming related cells,growth factors,and blood vessels,with its vascularization and secretion of growth factors dynamically changing overtime.(3)In terms of animal model selection,sheep are more similar to humans in anatomical structure,weight-bearing patterns,and bone remodeling.However,rats are more suitable considering their lower feeding costs,easier handling,and shorter modeling period.(4)Polymethyl methacrylate is not the only material that can be used to induce a biomembrane,and there may be more suitable materials capable of inducing higher-quality biomembranes.The recommended dose of antibiotics(primarily vancomycin)is 1-4 g per 40 g polymethyl methacrylate.(5)For animal fixation,especially in rats,the use of steel plates is more widespread,providing a more reliable and reproducible fixation method.(6)In the future,there is potential for new materials to replace autogenous bone and enhance the bone repair capabilities of the Masquelet technique.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of pulmonary infection in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after thoracoscopic lobectomy and evaluate their predictive value.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 152 NSCLC patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy at the Central Hospital of Tongchuan Mining Bureau in Shaanxi Province from May 2021 to May 2024. Among them, 45 cases were diagnosed with pulmonary infection by postoperative lung CT examination (postoperative infection group), while the remaining 107 cases did not develop pulmonary infection (non infection group). The levels of serum procalcitonin, serum amyloid A (SAA), and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1) between two groups of patients before and after surgery were compared, and conduct a multivariate logistic regression analysis on the risk factors of pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy was conducted to evaluate the predictive value of each indicator for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients after thoracoscopic lobectomy. The normally distributed quantitative data was represented by xˉ± s. Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and paired t-test was used for comparison before and after treatment; The count data was presented as an example (%), and the comparison between groups was conducted using the chi square test. The risk factors for postoperative pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients were analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to analyze the predictive value of each indicator for pulmonary infection after thoracoscopic lobectomy. Results:No difference were found in the levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 between two groups of patients before surgery(all P>0.05); 24 hours after surgery, the levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 in both groups of patients were higher than before surgery [Postoperative infection group: (1.16±0.29) μg/L compared to (0.34±0.09) μg/L, (10.2±1.8) mg/L compared to (7.3±0.9) mg/L, (20.3±4.8) ng/L compared to (8.0±1.2) ng/L, t-values were 20.70, 9.70, and 16.89, respectively, all P<0.001; The uninfected group (0.84±0.14) μg/L compared to (0.32±0.08) μg/L, (8.2±1.1) mg/L compared to (7.4±0.9) mg/L, and (13.5±6.3) ng/L compared to (8.1±1.2) ng/L, with t-values of 33.36, 6.13, and 8.73, respectively, all P<0.001, and the infected group was higher than the uninfected group ( t-values of 9.18, 8.32, and 6.52, respectively, all P<0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 levels at 24 hours after surgery were all risk factors for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy (odds ratios of 2.40, 1.61, 1.60, 95% confidence intervals: 1.14~5.04, 1.09~2.38, 1.13~2.26, P values of 0.021, 0.017, 0.009, respectively). The area under curve(AUC) of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 predicting pulmonary infection after thoracoscopic lobectomy in NSCLC patients 24 hours after surgery were 0.84, 0.74, and 0.79, respectively, with cutoff values of 1.03 μg/L, 9.74 mg/L, and 16.85 ng/L, respectively. Conclusions:The levels of serum procalcitonin, SAA, and sTREM-1 24 hours after surgery are all risk factors for pulmonary infection in NSCLC patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy, and all three had a high predictive value for postoperative pulmonary infection.
