Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of newly reported occupational diseases and provide a basis for the formulation of occupational disease prevention and control plans in Nanjing. Methods A descriptive analysis was conducted on newly reported occupational disease cases in Nanjing from 2014 to 2024. Results A total of 325 new cases of occupational diseases were reported in Nanjing, primarily concentrated in occupational otorhinolaryngological and oral diseases, as well as pneumoconiosis. Male cases outnumbered female cases across all types of occupational diseases. The median age at diagnosis was 53 (44, 65) years, and the median length of employment was 13 (6, 24) years. The distribution of occupational diseases varied significantly by gender and age at diagnosis (P<0.01). The distribution of occupational diseases also showed significant differences based on the length of exposure to hazards (χ²=120.63, P<0.01). Large enterprises, state-owned enterprises, and manufacturing industries accounted for the majority of cases (120 cases, 36.92%; 154 cases, 47.38%; 232 cases, 71.38%). The distribution of newly reported occupational diseases across different age groups at diagnosis was statistically significant (H=97.66, P<0.01; H=84.06, P<0.01; H=34.64, P<0.01; H=20.05, P<0.01; H=21.70, P<0.01). Except for occupational diseases caused by physical factors, the distribution of other newly reported occupational diseases across different employment length groups was also statistically significant (H=105.45, P<0.01; H=97.05, P<0.01; H=34.14, P<0.01; H=42.69, P<0.01). Conclusion The prevention and control of newly reported occupational diseases in Nanjing remain challenging. Attention should be paid to key occupational otorhinolaryngological and oral diseases, as well as pneumoconiosis. It is necessary to strengthen supervision and management of medium and large state-owned enterprises and manufacturing industries.

OBJECTIVE To establish a high-risk medication list and preventive and therapeutic measures for drug-induced hypofibrinogenemia， and to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of this condition. METHODS By integrating domestic and international case reports， retrospective case-control studies， and spontaneous adverse drug reaction reporting databases， 19 domestically marketed high-risk drugs for drug-induced hypofibrinogenemia were identified. Based on the clinical characteristics and mechanisms of these drugs， relevant risk factors were systematically reviewed， and existing treatment options were summarized， leading to the preliminary development of recommended preventive and therapeutic measures. A two-round Delphi consultation was conducted to evaluate， revise， and ultimately reach consensus on the preliminary findings， using a mean importance score of ≥3.5 points for indicators and a coefficient of variation ＜0.3 as screening criteria. RESULTS The coefficient of expert authority for both rounds of expert consultation was 0.904. In the first round， the Kendall coordination coefficients （Kendall’s W ） for the high-risk medication list and the proposed preventive and therapeutic measures were 0.390 and 0.223 （ P ＜0.05）， respectively. In the second round， the Kendall’s W were 0.227 and 0.200 （ P ＜0.05）， respectively. After two rounds of expert consultation and discussion， 11 high-risk drugs for drug-induced hypofibrinogenemia， represented by hemocoagulase and certain anti-infective agents， were ultimately identified， along with 5 preventive and therapeutic measures spanning the entire process of “pre-medication assessment， intra-medication monitoring， and bleeding event management”. CONCLUSIONS This study has established a scientific and reliable high-risk medication list， and corresponding preventive and therapeutic measures for drug-induced hypofibrinogenemia， providing a theoretical basis and practical support for the early identification， stratified management， and precise intervention of this condition.

The Type III Secretion System (T3SS) serves as a pivotal virulence apparatus for numerous Gram-negative bacterial pathogens, enabling them to infect both animal and plant hosts. Functioning as a molecular syringe, the T3SS directly translocates bacterial effector proteins from the bacterial cytoplasm into the interior of eukaryotic host cells. These effectors are central weapons that precisely manipulate a wide spectrum of host cellular physiological processes, ranging from cytoskeletal dynamics to immune signaling, to establish a favorable niche for bacterial survival and proliferation. Among the diverse arsenal of T3SS effectors, the YopJ family constitutes a critical group of virulence factors. Members of this family are characterized by a conserved catalytic triad structure—a hallmark of the CE clan of cysteine proteases that has been evolutionarily repurposed to confer acetyltransferase activity. A defining and intriguing feature of these enzymes is their stringent dependence on a host-derived eukaryotic cofactor, inositol hexakisphosphate (IP₆), for allosteric activation. This requirement acts as a sophisticated molecular safeguard, ensuring enzymatic activity only within the appropriate host environment, thereby preventing detrimental effects on the bacterium itself. While seminal studies on individual members such as Yersinia’s YopJ and Salmonella’s AvrA have provided deep mechanistic insights, a systematic and integrative understanding of the structure-function relationships across the entire family remains fragmented. Key questions persist regarding how a conserved catalytic core has diverged to recognize distinct host substrates in different kingdoms of life. To address this gap, this article provides a systematic review of the YopJ family, focusing on three interconnected aspects: their structural features, their catalytic mechanism, and their divergent immunosuppressive strategies in animal versus plant hosts. By conducting a comparative analysis of the sequences and resolved three-dimensional structures of three representative members (e.g., HopZ1a, PopP2, AvrA), we elucidate regions of significant variation embedded within the conserved core catalytic architecture. These variable regions, often involving surface loops and substrate-binding interfaces, are crucial determinants of target specificity and functional specialization. The functional divergence of this effector family is most apparent when comparing their modes of action in different hosts. In animal hosts, YopJ-family effectors primarily sabotage innate immune signaling pathways. They achieve this by acetylating key serine and threonine residues within the activation loops of critical kinases in the MAPK and NF‑κB pathways. This post-translational modification blocks the phosphorylation and subsequent activation of these kinases, leading to potent suppression of inflammatory cytokine production. Conversely, in plant hosts, the strategy broadens to dismantle the two-tiered plant immune system. YopJ homologs target a more diverse set of substrates, including immune-associated receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs), microtubule networks via tubulin acetylation (which disrupts cellular trafficking and signaling), and transcription factors central to defense gene regulation. This multi-target approach effectively suppresses both Pattern-Triggered Immunity (PTI) and Effector-Triggered Immunity (ETI). In conclusion, this synthesis aims to deepen the mechanistic understanding of YopJ family-mediated pathogenesis by integrating structural biology with cellular function across host kingdoms. Elucidating the precise molecular basis for substrate selection—how conserved platforms achieve target diversity—is a major frontier. Furthermore, this knowledge provides a vital theoretical foundation for developing novel anti-virulence strategies. Targeting the conserved IP₆-binding pocket or the catalytic acetyltransferase activity itself represents a promising avenue for designing broad-spectrum inhibitors that could disarm this critical family of bacterial effectors, potentially offering new therapeutic approaches against a range of pathogenic bacteria.

Objective To explore the relationship between PANoptosis and hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI), and to screen the key genes of PANoptosis in HIRI. Methods PANoptosis-related differentially expressed genes (PDG) were obtained through the Gene Expression Omnibus database and GeneCards database. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) were used to explore the biological pathways related to PDG. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed. Key genes were selected, and their diagnostic value was assessed and validated in the HIRI mice. Immune cell infiltration analysis was performed based on the cell-type identification by estimating relative subsets of RNA transcripts. Results A total of 16 PDG were identified. GO analysis showed that PDG were closely related to cellular metabolism. KEGG analysis indicated that PDG were mainly enriched in cellular death pathways such as apoptosis and immune-related signaling pathways such as the tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway. GSEA results showed that key genes were mainly enriched in immune-related signaling pathways such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Two key genes, DFFB and TNFSF10, were identified with high accuracy in diagnosing HIRI, with areas under the curve of 0.964 and 1.000, respectively. Immune infiltration analysis showed that the control group had more infiltration of resting natural killer cells, M2 macrophages, etc., while the HIRI group had more infiltration of M0 macrophages, neutrophils, and naive B cells. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction results showed that compared with the Sham group, the relative expression of DFFB messenger RNA in liver tissue of HIRI group mice increased, and the relative expression of TNFSF10 messenger RNA decreased. Cibersort analysis showed that the infiltration abundance of naive B cells was positively correlated with DFFB expression (r=0.70, P=0.035), and the infiltration abundance of M2 macrophages was positively correlated with TNFSF10 expression (r=0.68, P=0.045). Conclusions PANoptosis-related genes DFFB and TNFSF10 may be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HIRI.

Collagen is a major structural protein in the matrix of animal cells and the most widely distributed and abundant functional protein in mammals. Collagen’s good biocompatibility, biodegradability and biological activity make it a very valuable biomaterial. According to the source of collagen, it can be broadly categorized into two types: one is animal collagen; the other is recombinant collagen. Animal collagen is mainly extracted and purified from animal connective tissues by chemical methods, such as acid, alkali and enzyme methods, etc. Recombinant collagen refers to collagen produced by gene splicing technology, where the amino acid sequence is first designed and improved according to one’s own needs, and the gene sequence of improved recombinant collagen is highly consistent with that of human beings, and then the designed gene sequence is cloned into the appropriate vector, and then transferred to the appropriate expression vector. The designed gene sequence is cloned into a suitable vector, and then transferred to a suitable expression system for full expression, and finally the target protein is obtained by extraction and purification technology. Recombinant collagen has excellent histocompatibility and water solubility, can be directly absorbed by the human body and participate in the construction of collagen, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, cell growth, wound healing and site filling, etc., which has demonstrated significant effects, and has become the focus of the development of modern biomedical materials. This paper firstly elaborates the structure, type, and tissue distribution of human collagen, as well as the associated genetic diseases of different types of collagen, then introduces the specific process of producing animal source collagen and recombinant collagen, explains the advantages of recombinant collagen production method, and then introduces the various systems of expressing recombinant collagen, as well as their advantages and disadvantages, and finally briefly introduces the application of animal collagen, focusing on the use of animal collagen in the development of biopharmaceutical materials. In terms of application, it focuses on the use of animal disease models exploring the application effects of recombinant collagen in wound hemostasis, wound repair, corneal therapy, female pelvic floor dysfunction (FPFD), vaginal atrophy (VA) and vaginal dryness, thin endometritis (TE), chronic endometritis (CE), bone tissue regeneration in vivo, cardiovascular diseases, breast cancer (BC) and anti-aging. The mechanism of action of recombinant collagen in the treatment of FPFD and CE was introduced, and the clinical application and curative effect of recombinant collagen in skin burn, skin wound, dermatitis, acne and menopausal urogenital syndrome (GSM) were summarized. From the exploratory studies and clinical applications, it is evident that recombinant collagen has demonstrated surprising effects in the treatment of all types of diseases, such as reducing inflammation, promoting cell proliferation, migration and adhesion, increasing collagen deposition, and remodeling the extracellular matrix. At the end of the review, the challenges faced by recombinant collagen are summarized: to develop new recombinant collagen types and dosage forms, to explore the mechanism of action of recombinant collagen, and to provide an outlook for the future development and application of recombinant collagen.

Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair has become the most important and widely recognized method for the treatment of patients with severe mitral regurgitation who are at high risk for surgery.At present,TEER is developing rapidly in China,the operation process tends to be standardized and standardized,and various domestic Clip devices are also constantly developing and improving,but the operation process of this technology is very dependent on the guidance and monitoring of transesophageal echocardiography,and many surgeons often only pay attention to the repair effect of TEER on MR,and ignore the damage of TEE probe to the esophagus.This study reports a case of esophageal erosion occurring in a patient after mitral valve clipping for mitral regurgitation,aiming to enhance awareness among colleagues regarding esophageal injury caused by transesophageal echocardiography probes.

The receptors of Newcastle disease virus(NDV)are sialic acid receptors that mainly in-clude neu5ac-α-2,3gal-β-1,4Glc(SAα2,3Gal)and neu5ac-2-s-α-2,6Gal10Me(SAα2,6Gal).The distribution and abundance of the two receptors in host cells have important effects on virus sus-ceptibility and intracellular proliferation.In order to further explore the effects of sialic acid recep-tors on susceptibility and proliferation characteristics of NDV different strains,the expression lev-els of SAα2,3Gal and SAα2,6Gal receptors on BHK-21 cell membrane were adjusted by overex-pression and RNAi assays,and the TCID50 values were determined after different BHK-21 cells were inoculated with NDV strains Ⅰ and LaSota.The results suggested that NDV strain LaSota preferentially binds to SAα2,6Gal and strain Ⅰ selectively binds to SAα2,3Gal receptor.Further-more,the viral titers of NDV strains LaSota and Ⅰ in cell culture were positively correlated with the expression levels of SAα2,6Gal and SAα2,3Gal receptors on host cell membrane respectively.In conclusion,our studies provide an understanding of the relationship between infectivity of NDV different strains and receptor types of host cell,and provide a method to increase viral titer of NDV for cell-based vaccine production.

Objective:To discuss the expression of tripartite motif-containing protein 24(TRIM24)in the clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC)tissue,and to clarify its relationships with the clinicopathological features and prognosis of the ccRCC patients.Methods:The cancer and paracancer normal tissues were collected from 90 ccRCC patients who had not undergone preoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy.Tissue microarray and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression levels of TRIM24 protein in ccRCC tissue.The differences in TRIM24 protein expression between ccRCC and paracancer normal tissues were analyzed.The score of TRIM24 protein expression and the average value were calculated,and based on the average value,the patients were classified into TRIM24 protein low-expression and TRIM24 protein high-expression groups.The associations between the TRIM24 protein expression and different clinicopathological features of the patients were analyzed,and the relationship between the TRIM24 protein expression and the prognosis of the patients was analyzed.Results:The immunohistochemistry results showed that the TRIM24 protein was expressed in both the nucleus and cytoplasm of the ccRCC tumor cells,and there were significant differences in the TRIM24 protein expression level in ccRCC tissue when compared with paracancer normal tissue(P＜0.05).The TRIM24 protein expression in the nucleus of ccRCC tissue was associated with the patient's age,gender,and tumor size(P＜0.05).The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis results showed that the overall survivals of the patients with high TRIM24 protein expression in the cytoplasm of ccRCC tissue,older age,and higher pathological grade were shorter than those with low TRIM24 protein expression,younger age,and lower pathological grade(P＜0.05).The multivariate Cox regression analysis results showed that the prognosis of the patients with high TRIM24 protein expression in the cytoplasm and higher pathological grade were poorer compared with the patients with low TRIM24 protein expression and lower pathological grade(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The ccRCC patients with high TRIM24 expression in the cytoplasm of ccRCC tumor tissue and higher pathological grade have the lower postoperative survival rates and poorer prognosis.
