HDAC7, a member of class IIa HDACs, plays a pivotal regulatory role in tumor, immune, fibrosis, and angiogenesis, rendering it a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, due to the high similarity in the enzyme active sites of class IIa HDACs, inhibitors encounter challenges in discerning differences among them. Furthermore, the substitution of key residue in the active pocket of class IIa HDACs renders them pseudo-enzymes, leading to a limited impact of enzymatic inhibitors on their function. In this study, proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology was employed to develop HDAC7 drugs. We developed an exceedingly selective HDAC7 PROTAC degrader B14 which showcased superior inhibitory effects on cell proliferation compared to TMP269 in various diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Subsequent investigations unveiled that B14 disrupts BCL6 forming a transcriptional inhibition complex by degrading HDAC7, thereby exerting proliferative inhibition in DLBCL. Our study broadened the understanding of the non-enzymatic functions of HDAC7 and underscored the importance of HDAC7 in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly in DLBCL and AML.

Objective We aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of promoting blood circulation and eliminating phlegm method in preventing and treating patients with hydrocephalus after acute intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods This study included 139 patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage who visited Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Guangyuan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College,Meishan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,and Xuyong Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from September 2019 to June 2023.Patients who met the exposure factors of"using the method of promoting blood circulation and eliminating phlegm"were classified into the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort,while those who did not meet the exposure factors were classified into the Western medicine cohort.Clinical efficacy,incidence of hydrocephalus after intracerebral hemorrhage,sum of maximum distance between the anterior horn of the lateral ventricle and the head of the caudate nucleus(Huckman value),size of the hematoma,incidence of endpoint events,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score,and Barthel index score between two cohorts were compared.Results Total clinical effective rates for patients with hydrocephalus in the two cohorts were 60.0%and 75.0%,respectively.The total effective rate of the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort was higher than that of the Western medicine cohort(P<0.05).After 28 days of treatment,the incidence of hydrocephalus in patients in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort was lower than that of the Western medicine cohort,and the Huckman value decreased compared with the Western medicine cohort(P<0.05).Compared with 24 hours after onset,both cohorts showed a reduction in hematoma size after 28 days of treatment;compared with the Western medicine cohort,patients in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort had reduced hematoma size(P<0.05).After 6 months of onset,the number of deaths in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort decreased compared with the Western medicine cohort(P<0.05).Compared with 28 days of treatment,the NIHSS and mRS scores of the patients in both cohorts decreased after 6 months,while the Barthel index score increased;compared with the Western medicine cohort,patients in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine cohort showed a decrease in the NIHSS and mRS scores after both 28 days of treatment and 6 months,while the Barthel index score increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Promoting blood circulation and eliminating phlegm can effectively prevent and treat hydrocephalus after intracerebral hemorrhage and does not increase the risk of bleeding within 24 hours.

Objective:To investigate the short-term clinical effect of using fibular flap with preserving the continuity of fibula in hip preservation surgery for femoral head necrosis.Methods:From September, 2017 to November, 2020, 13 cases of femoral head necrosis were repaired with fibular flap. The fibular flaps were cut with an improved method for preserving the continuity of the fibular cortex, and the donor sites were sutured directly. The fibuls were inserted into the femoral heads with single or double segment folding support. Autogenous iliac crest combined with platelet-rich plasma(PRP) was used for impaction of bone grafting in femoral head, and the fibular flaps were anastomosed with 1 artery and 2 veins. All follow-up data were obtained, including bone union by X-ray and CT as well as the functional recovery of the hip joint and donor site. Statistical analysis was performed. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The followed-up time ranged from 6 to 23 months. The fibular bones were significantly thicker and the incisions healed well at the donor sites. There was neither abnormal sensation in toes, dorsal foot, and lateral of the leg, nor significant influence on foot function. The hip joint activities were normal. The outcome was proved to be remarkable according to the Harris score(from 58.9±10.6 points before surgery to 81.7±10.6 points after surgery), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The method of the improved fibular flap in hip preservation surgery is beneficial to the repair and reconstruction of the necrotic femoral head since the donor area is less traumatic, and a satisfactory clinical effect can be obtained.

Objective To investigate a more pedect method for a nice outward appearance of a reconstructed thumb.Methods A free one-stage plasty second toe transfer for thumb reconstruction by interchanging the whole skin-nail flap from the great toe with another one from the second toe.Results There were 12 cases in this group,following-up 6-9 months in 8 cases,7 cases was excellent and 1 cases was good.The reconstructed thumb got a nice looking and more normal function while no blight to the great toe occurred.Conclusion It is an effective new procedure in ameliorating outward appearance of the reconstructed thumb by transferring the free moulded second toe.
