Background: Influenza A virus (IAV) is a negative-sense RNA virus of the Orthomyxoviridae family and is the etiological agent of a highly contagious acute respiratory disease that can lead to acute lung injury. Objective: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of IAV infection, an integrative research approach combining gene expression profiling, multinetwork analysis, and in vivo experimental validations was employed. Methods: First, a series of network-based analyses were performed, including protein-protein interaction network construction, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and subsequent gene set enrichment analysis, to identify the major underlying mechanisms of IAV infection. Following gene expression analysis, core targets, both direct and indirect regulators, were screened. An IAV (H1N1) strain A/PR/8/34-induced acute lung injury mouse model was constructed for in vivo validations. Batch one included two groups to evaluate findings from the multi-network analysis: Mock (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females) and IAV (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females). Batch two included three groups to assess the role of toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) in IAV infection: Mock (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), IAV (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), and TLR3 inhibitor (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females). Body weight was measured on days 0, 3, and 5 after infection. On day 5, lung tissues were collected to assess viral load and histopathological changes. Key targets were examined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining, both in sera and lung tissues. Results: IAV infection was significantly associated with dysregulation of the immune-inflammation system, such as the LTR, nucle-otide-binding oligomerization domain-(NOD) like receptor, retinoic acid-inducible gene I-like receptor, and nuclear factor kappa-B signaling pathways. Gene set enrichment analysis further indicated that the TLR and necroptosis signaling pathways played crucial roles in the progression of IAV infection (TLR signaling pathway normalized enrichment score = 2.3941, P = 1.00 × 10 −10; necroptosis normalized enrichment score = 1.9421, P = 6.21 × 10 −7). Among the core targets, TLR3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) may regulate gene expression at the transcriptional level (all P < 0.05). In vivo validation using an IAV (PR8) infected acute lung injury mouse model demonstrated increased viral load and lung index, alveolar structural damage, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Immunofluorescence staining exhibited large gaps in Lamin B1 staining and breaches in Emerin signals following IAV-PR8 infection. Expression levels of TLR3, p-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/RIPK3, and p-mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL)/MLKL proteins in lung tissues, as well as proinflammatory factors and mediators in sera, were significantly elevated after IAV infection. Moreover, enhanced neutrophil infiltration (myeloperoxidase) and citrullinated histone H3 (a neutrophil extracellular trap-specific marker), both established indicators of neutrophil extracellular trap formation, were observed. Notably, treatment with a TLR3 inhibitor significantly ameliorated IAV-induced acute lung injury by regulating necroptosis-related targets. Conclusion: Our study provides network-based in vivo evidence that TLR3-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3-MLKL-mediated necroptosis may underlie IAV-induced acute lung injury and could serve as a potential therapeutic target in severe influenza cases.

Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide, and its treatment continues to face major challenges such as therapeutic resistance and tumor recurrence. Pyroptosis, a newly characterized form of programmed cell death, induces tumor cell death through gasdermin-mediated membrane pore formation and is accompanied by the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby playing complex roles in lung cancer initiation, progression, and modulation of the tumor microenvironment. Active components and herbal formulas derived from traditional Chinese medicine can modulate pyroptosis-related signaling pathways through multi-target mechanisms, showing potential advantages in inducing lung cancer cell death, inhibiting proliferation and migration, and reversing chemoresistance. This review systematically summarizes relevant studies from domestic and international sources, focusing on the molecular mechanisms of pyroptosis, its roles in lung cancer development and tumor microenvironment remodeling, and the current research progress on traditional Chinese medicine-based interventions targeting pyroptosis, with the aim of providing references for the prevention and treatment of lung cancer using traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based deep learning model in preoperative prediction of proliferative hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 906 HCC patients who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from May 2017 to October 2022 were collected. There were 769 males and 137 females, aged (53.2±10.9)years. Of the 906 patients, 815 cases who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University were divided into the training set of 634 patients and the internal validation set of 181 patients using a random number table method with a ratio of 8:2, and 91 patients who were admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were divided into the external validation set. The training set was used to construct the prediction model, while the validation set was used to validate the prediction model. Observation indicators: (1) analysis of factors influencing the pathological classification of HCC patients; (2) deep learning imaging features of HCC patients; (3) evaluation of the efficacy of prediction model for proliferative HCC; (4) validation of the prediction model for proliferative HCC; (5) prognosis of HCC patients. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the binary Logistic regression model. The model perfor-mance was evaluated through five-fold cross-validation, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to assess the diagnostic value of the model based on the area under curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. The Delong test was used to compare the diagnostic performance of models. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test was employed to evaluate the calibration of models. The optimal cutoff value of the prediction model was determined by the maximum Youden index, with the value >0.175 indicating high-risk patients and value ≤0.175 indicating low-risk patients.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Analysis of factors influencing the pathological classification of HCC patients. Of 634 patients in the training set, there were 190 cases of proliferative HCC and 444 cases of non-proliferative HCC. Results of multivariate analysis showed that alpha fetoprotein (AFP) ≥400 μg/L and tumor diameter >5 cm were independent risk factors for pathological type of HCC as proli-ferative [ odds ratio=1.73, 1.88, 95% confidence interval ( CI) as 1.19-2.50, 1.30-2.71, P<0.05]. (2) Deep learning imaging features of HCC patients. In the training set of 634 patients, the probability predicted by MRI-based deep learning model was 84.8%(30.5%,95.4%) for proliferative HCC and 5.8%(3.2%,12.5%) for non-proliferative HCC, showing a significant difference between them ( Z=-16.01, P<0.05). (3) Evaluation of the efficacy of prediction model for proliferative HCC. In the training set, the AUC of clinical prediction model for proliferative HCC was 0.63(95% CI as 0.59-0.68, P<0.05), with sensitivity of 54.74% and specificity of 64.19%. The AUC of MRI-based deep learning prediction model was 0.90(95% CI as 0.87-0.93, P<0.05), with sensitivity of 80.53% and specificity of 86.94%. The AUC of combined MRI-based deep learning with clinical prediction model was 0.90 (95% CI as 0.87-0.93, P<0.05), with sensitivity of 83.16% and specificity of 86.04%. Results of Delong test showed that there was a significant difference between the combined MRI-based deep learning with clinical prediction model and the clinical prediction model ( P<0.05), and there was no signifi-cant difference between the combined MRI-based deep learning with clinical prediction model and the MRI-based deep learning prediction model ( P>0.05). Results of Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good calibration for the clinical prediction model, the MRI-based deep learning prediction model and the combined MRI-based deep learning with clinical prediction model ( χ2=0.84, 6.38, 3.93, P>0.05), indicating that the predicted probabilities of these three prediction models matched the actual risk well. (4) Validation of the prediction model for proliferative HCC. Results of validation of the prediction model in internal validation set showed the AUC of MRI-based deep learning prediction model for proliferative HCC was 0.84(95% CI as 0.77-0.91, P<0.05), with sensitivity of 82.35% and specificity of 77.69%. Results of validation of the prediction model in external validation set showed the AUC of MRI-based deep learning prediction model for proliferative HCC was 0.81(95% CI as 0.71-0.92, P<0.05), with sensitivity of 70.00% and specificity of 81.69%. (5) Prognosis of HCC patients. Of the 906 patients, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates for 645 proliferative HCC patients were 56.9%, 31.4%, and 29.1%, respectively, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates for 261 non-proliferative HCC patients were 88.8%, 68.6%, and 56.0%, respectively. There were significant differences in recurrence-free survival time between proliferative HCC and non-proliferative HCC patients of the training set, internal validation set and external validation set ( P<0.05). The 1-, 3-, 5-year recurrence-free survival rates for 331 high-risk HCC patients were 64.6%, 50.4%, 43.6%, versus 88.5%, 71.9%, 62.7% for 575 low-risk HCC patients. There were significant differences in recurrence-free survival time between high-risk HCC patients and low-risk HCC patients of the training set, internal validation set and external validation set ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The MRI-based deep learning model can effectively predict proliferative HCC and recurrence-free survival of patients before the surgery.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the differential expression of RNA in blood monocytes in patients with Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) treated with TNF antagonists (TNFi), and to explore the effect and mechanism of gene expression on the efficacy of JIA.
METHODS:
A total of 29 children with JIA treated with methotrexate (MTX) and TNFi in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University from April 2021 to November 2023 were enrolled. After 6 months, the children were divided into two groups according to the treatment effect, i.e., 13 cases in the ineffective group and 16 cases in the effective group, the peripheral blood of the children was collected, the blood mononuclear cells were isolated for transcriptome sequencing, the differentially expressed genes between the groups were analyzed, the signaling pathways and metabolic pathways related to the efficacy of TNFi were analyzed by GO and KEGG enrichment, and the mechanism related to the efficacy of TNFi was explored. This study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of the Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University (Ethics No.: 2023-330B00).
RESULTS:
There was a statistically significant difference in the gender and age distribution between the two groups of children (P < 0.05), while no statistically significant differences were observed in disease duration, rheumatoid antibody levels, or JIA subtypes (P > 0.05). After sequencing data quality control and comparison of reference genomes, a total of 18 523 protein-coding genes were identified in all children's samples. A total of 705 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between the effective group and the invalid group through differential analysis, of which 579 were up-regulated in the effective group and 126 in the inactive group. GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that DEG was significantly enriched in 55 GO entries and 32 KEGG metabolic pathways, which were mainly related to IL-1β production and regulation, cytokine production and regulation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, immune response regulation, and Toll-like receptor signaling pathway.
CONCLUSION
DEG between the effective and ineffective groups of TNFi treatment may be involved in the biological processes such as cytokine production and regulation, cytokine-receptor interaction, and immune response regulation, which will be helpful to predict the efficacy and prognosis of TNFi treatment for JIA.
