ObjectivePost-ischemic acute inflammation and the subsequent persistent dysregulation of the immune microenvironment represent major pathological drivers that aggravate neuronal injury and severely restrict functional recovery following ischemic stroke. Although current reperfusion therapies partially restore blood flow, they fail to effectively modulate the secondary inflammatory cascade and oxidative stress, which remain critical barriers to neurological restoration. To address this challenge, this study aimed to engineer and systematically evaluate a biomimetic nanosystem composed of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-loaded platelet membrane-camouflaged lipid nanoparticles (PLP). This nanosystem was designed to achieve dual lesion-targeted delivery and immune microenvironment remodeling. By verifying its spatiotemporal accumulation, anti-inflammatory activity, and neuroprotective efficacy, we sought to establish an integrated therapeutic strategy that simultaneously enables lesion targeting, immune regulation, and functional recovery after ischemic injury. MethodsThe physicochemical properties of PLP, including hydrodynamic particle size, zeta potential, structural stability, and morphology, were characterized using dynamic light scattering, zeta potential analysis, and transmission electron microscopy. The preservation of platelet membrane-derived adhesion and immunoregulatory proteins was confirmed by SDS-PAGE through comparative analysis of protein band profiles between PLP and native platelet membranes. The in vitro biological activities of PLP were evaluated using two complementary cellular models. LPS-induced M1-polarized RAW264.7 macrophages were employed to assess inflammatory modulation, while oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R)-induced BV2 microglial cells and SH-SY5Y neuronal cells were utilized to investigate neuroinflammatory regulation and neuronal protection. For in vivo validation, a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mouse model was established to mimic ischemia-reperfusion injury. The spatiotemporal biodistribution and lesion-targeting capability of the PLP were monitored through live fluorescence imaging. Therapeutic efficacy was comprehensively evaluated by triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunofluorescence analysis, body weight monitoring, and neurological severity score (NSS) assessment. ResultsPLP nanoparticles displayed a uniform spherical morphology, nanoscale particle size distribution, and stable negative surface charge, indicating favorable colloidal stability and circulation potential. SDS-PAGE results confirmed the effective retention of key platelet membrane proteins associated with endothelial adhesion, immune evasion, and inflammatory regulation, demonstrating the successful biomimetic construction. Optimal therapeutic concentrations were determined in OGD/R-induced BV2 cells, where PLP exhibited excellent cytocompatibility and anti-inflammatory activity.In vitro experiments demonstrated that PLP significantly inhibited the polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages toward the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype and markedly reduced neuronal apoptosis under ischemia-reperfusion conditions. In vivo fluorescence imaging revealed that PLP rapidly accumulated in the ischemic brain hemisphere and maintained prolonged retention for up to 7 d, suggesting enhanced lesion-specific targeting and sustained drug release. Compared with control group, PLP treatment significantly reduced cerebral infarct volume, attenuated reactive astrogliosis, improved weight recovery, and accelerated neurological functional restoration, as reflected by significantly improved NSS scores. ConclusionThis study establishes a multifunctional biomimetic nanoplatform that integrates platelet membrane-mediated active targeting with the anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and neuroprotective properties of TGF-β1. The PLP system enables rapid lesion homing and long-term retention while synergistically regulating the post-stroke inflammatory microenvironment by suppressing pro-inflammatory immune activation, reducing neuronal apoptosis, and limiting excessive astrocyte reactivity. Importantly, this study proposes a conceptually therapeutic paradigm that combines targeted delivery with immune microenvironment remodeling to achieve comprehensive neurovascular protection. These findings provide strong experimental evidence supporting the translational potential of biomimetic nanotherapeutics as next-generation precision interventions for ischemic stroke.

ObjectiveChronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is usually diagnosed by gastroscopy and histopathological biopsy. These procedures remain the reference standard, but their invasive nature and resource requirements may limit their use in large-scale population screening and repeated follow-up. A convenient and reproducible method for noninvasive auxiliary screening may help identify individuals who require further endoscopic assessment. Fingertip photoplethysmography (PPG) provides a noninvasive recording of peripheral pulse waves and allows harmonic features to be extracted from the signal. In this study, the so-called meridian-related variables were defined as PPG-derived harmonic parameters labelled according to meridian nomenclature, rather than as direct measurements of meridian physiology. This study aimed to compare these harmonic parameters between patients with CAG and non-CAG controls, identify parameters that remained different after age adjustment, and develop a multivariable model for noninvasive auxiliary screening and pre-endoscopic risk stratification of CAG. MethodsA total of 343 participants were included, comprising 171 patients with CAG and 172 non-CAG controls. CAG diagnosis was established using gastroscopy and histopathology as the reference standard. Fingertip PPG signals were collected using a PPG-based pulse acquisition device. Eight PPG-derived harmonic parameters labelled according to meridian nomenclature were extracted for analysis. Between-group differences were first assessed using nonparametric tests. Age-adjusted analyses were then performed to reduce potential confounding by age. The false discovery rate (FDR) method was applied for multiple-comparison correction. A multivariable logistic regression model integrating age and multiple harmonic parameters was constructed. Model performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the area under the curve (AUC). Internal validation performance was assessed using stratified five-fold cross-validation and bootstrap optimism correction. Threshold performance was examined using both a high-specificity strategy and a Youden index-based cutoff. Decision curve analysis was used to evaluate the model’s net clinical benefit across a range of threshold probabilities. ResultsAll eight harmonic parameters were non-normally distributed. In the univariate analysis, the stomach-labelled harmonic parameter (ST), bladder-labelled harmonic parameter (BL), and liver-labelled harmonic parameter (LR) differed between the CAG and non-CAG groups. After age adjustment and FDR correction, only ST and BL remained statistically significant. Compared with non-CAG controls, patients with CAG showed higher ST values and lower BL values. This finding indicates an associated differential harmonic pattern that was not fully explained by age distribution. However, the discriminative ability of a single harmonic parameter was limited. The best-performing single indicator was ST, with an AUC of 0.652 (95% CI: 0.595-0.707). The multivariable model integrating age and multiple harmonic parameters achieved an AUC of 0.791 (95% CI: 0.743-0.835), representing an improvement of 0.139 over ST alone. In internal validation, stratified five-fold cross-validation yielded a mean AUC of 0.753 (95% CI: 0.715-0.781), and the bootstrap optimism-corrected AUC was 0.748. These results suggest that the model retained moderate discriminative performance after internal validation.At a specificity of at least 95%, the model achieved a sensitivity of only 40.4% (95% CI: 25.7%-49.7%). This high-specificity cutoff may be suboptimal as the preferred threshold for an initial screening setting because of the potential risk of missed CAG cases. The Youden index-based optimal cutoff was 0.419, corresponding to a sensitivity of 80.7% and a specificity of 62.8%. This threshold may better match the practical aim of noninvasive auxiliary screening, where sensitivity is usually prioritized to reduce missed cases. Decision curve analysis showed that, within a threshold probability range of 10%-55%, the model provided higher net clinical benefit than the reference strategies of recommending gastroscopy for all participants or for none. ConclusionPatients with CAG showed associated harmonic differences in fingertip PPG-derived features, mainly characterized by higher ST and lower BL values after age adjustment and FDR correction. Compared with a single harmonic parameter, the multivariable model showed better overall discrimination and retained moderate internal validation performance. These findings suggest that PPG-derived harmonic parameters labelled according to meridian nomenclature may provide auxiliary information for noninvasive auxiliary screening and front-line triage before gastroscopic confirmation in CAG. The present results support further validation rather than immediate clinical implementation. External validation in independent, multicenter, and preferably prospective screening cohorts is needed to assess the model’s generalizability, screening performance, and potential clinical utility.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of polydatin in delaying the progression of colitis-associated colorectal cancer （CAC） by constructing an azoxymethane （AOM）/dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）-induced CAC mouse model and conducting in vitro experiments. MethodsFifty-four male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal， model， and polydatin groups （0.045 g·kg^-1）. The CAC mouse model was established using AOM/DSS， and samples were collected at 4， 7， and 10 weeks. Body weight change rate， disease activity index （DAI）， and tumor formation were assessed. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe pathological injury in intestinal tissues. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was performed to detect zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1） expression in colonic tissues， and Western blot was used to detect the expression of E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in colonic epithelial cells. Real-time PCR was used to measure mRNA expression of interleukin-17A （IL-17A）， Wnt3a， β-catenin， T cell factor 1 （Tcf1）， E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in colonic tissues. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the proportion of CD8⁺T cells and the expression of exhaustion-related molecules in tumors. Human colon cancer DLD-1 cells were cultured in a polydatin-containing medium， and wound healing assays were performed to observe migration changes. Real-time PCR was used to detect mRNA expression of interleukin-17 receptor A （IL-17RA）， Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1， E-cadherin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin in DLD-1 cells. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group at all three time points showed significantly decreased body weight change rate （P<0.01）， significantly shortened colon length （P<0.01）， and markedly increased DAI scores （P<0.01）. HE staining revealed significant inflammatory cell infiltration in the submucosa of the colon in the model group， accompanied by epithelial dysplasia. ZO-1 expression in colonic tissues was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of the pro-inflammatory factor IL-17A and key molecules of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway （Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1） was significantly elevated （P<0.05）. The mRNA and protein expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） markers N-cadherin and Vimentin was significantly upregulated （P<0.05）， while E-cadherin expression was significantly downregulated （P<0.05）. The proportion of tumor-infiltrating CD8⁺T cells expressing immunosuppressive molecules （TIM-3， LAG-3， PD-1） was significantly increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the polydatin group showed significant improvement in body weight and DAI score （P<0.01）， as well as recovery of colon length and tissue injury. ZO-1 expression in colonic tissue was significantly increased （P<0.01）， while IL-17A， Wnt3a， β-catenin， Tcf1， N-cadherin， and Vimentin expression levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and E-cadherin expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Tumor-infiltrating CD8⁺ T cells expressing immunosuppressive molecules were significantly reduced （P<0.05）. In vitro experiments showed that polydatin significantly inhibited migration of DLD-1 cells （P<0.01） and reversed the upregulation of IL-17RA， Wnt3a， β-catenin， N-cadherin， and Vimentin mRNA， as well as the downregulation of E-cadherin mRNA （P<0.05）. ConclusionPolydatin inhibits IL-17A secretion and IL-17RA expression， improves the immune microenvironment， blocks activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， suppresses EMT markers （N-cadherin and Vimentin）， and restores tight junction protein expression in intestinal epithelial cells， thereby delaying the progression from colitis to colorectal cancer in mice.

Background: High-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) is a chromatin-binding protein involved in arthritis, ischemia, sepsis, atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative disorders, meningitis, and cancer. HMGB1 exhibits dual roles in cancer, acting as either a tumor suppressor or oncoprotein depending on context. Objective: This research aimed to elucidate HMGB1’s functional significance in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Methods: We overexpressed HMGB1 in cSCC cell lines using recombinant adenovirus and examined its effects on cell proliferation, colony formation, and cell migration. Results: Immunohistochemical analysis revealed elevated HMGB1 expression levels in cSCC tissue relative to normal epidermis. To assess the influence of HMGB1, we employed recombinant adenoviruses expressing HMGB1 to transduce SCC cell lines (SCC12 and SCC13). Enhanced HMGB1 expression significantly promoted cellular proliferation and colony formation capacity.Notably, HMGB1 overexpression elevated the levels of proliferation regulators, including P63, SOX2, CDK4 and CDK6. Furthermore, HMGB1 overexpression substantially enhanced tumor invasiveness, accompanied by upregulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) biomarkers. Mechanistically, overexpression of HMGB1 enhanced transforming growth factor-β signaling by increasing phosphorylation of SMAD2/3, the key mediators of EMT. Conclusion These data imply that HMGB1 acts as a tumor-promoting factor in cSCC.

Introduction: Atypical parathyroid adenoma (APA) constitutes approximately 0.5–4.0% of all cases of primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). Here, we report a case of APA presenting with severe hypercalcemia, complicated with renal impairment, bilateral medullary nephrocalcinosis, and multiple fragility fractures. Case: A 45-year-old male initially presented with a 6-month history of constipation, polyuria, lethargy, bone pain, and difficulty in initiating micturition. Laboratory investigations revealed impaired renal function with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 41.4 mL/min, severe hypercalcemia (4.07 mmol/L), and an elevated intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level of 104.0 pmol/L (reference range: 1.58–6.03 pmol/L), confirming the diagnosis of pHPT. He was also found to have vitamin D deficiency, with a serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of 46 nmol/L. Ultrasound of the abdomen demonstrated bilateral medullary nephrocalcinosis, while neck ultrasound and Tc-99 m sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy revealed a concordant lesion in the posterior aspect of the left thyroid lobe, suggestive of a parathyroid adenoma. He returned 3 months later with closed fractures of the right subtrochanteric femur and the right humerus following a fall from standing height. In view of persistent hypercalcemia despite hyperhydration and treatment with zoledronic acid, subcutaneous denosumab (60 mg) was administered, resulting in an improvement in serum calcium levels. A left inferior parathyroidectomy was then performed concurrently with internal fixation of the right femur. The surgery was uneventful. Histopathological examination confirmed an atypical parathyroid adenoma. Postoperatively, the serum calcium and iPTH levels normalized, and the patient remained asymptomatic and normocalcemic during regular follow-up. Conclusion APA remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge due to its clinical, biochemical, and histopathological features of equivocal malignancy. Surgical resection remains the mainstay of management of APA, and long-term surveillance is essential in view of its uncertain malignant potential and risk of recurrence.

Conclusions Ticks were found on a wide array of host animals within the 17 counties and cities of Yunnan Province, demonstrating high host species diversity. Our data suggest a need to strengthen the monitoring of tick-borne diseases and provide health education for the general population in Yunnan Province.

Immobilized enzyme-based enzyme electrode biosensors, characterized by high sensitivity and efficiency, strong specificity, and compact size, demonstrate broad application prospects in life science research, disease diagnosis and monitoring, etc. Immobilization of enzyme is a critical step in determining the performance (stability, sensitivity, and reproducibility) of the biosensors. Random immobilization (physical adsorption, covalent cross-linking, etc.) can easily bring about problems, such as decreased enzyme activity and relatively unstable immobilization. Whereas, directional immobilization utilizing amino acid residue mutation, affinity peptide fusion, or nucleotide-specific binding to restrict the orientation of the enzymes provides new possibilities to solve the problems caused by random immobilization. In this paper, the principles, advantages and disadvantages and the application progress of enzyme electrode biosensors of different directional immobilization strategies for enzyme molecular sensing elements by specific amino acids (lysine, histidine, cysteine, unnatural amino acid) with functional groups introduced based on site-specific mutation, affinity peptides (gold binding peptides, carbon binding peptides, carbohydrate binding domains) fused through genetic engineering, and specific binding between nucleotides and target enzymes (proteins) were reviewed, and the application fields, advantages and limitations of various immobilized enzyme interface characterization techniques were discussed, hoping to provide theoretical and technical guidance for the creation of high-performance enzyme sensing elements and the manufacture of enzyme electrode sensors.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction combined with monosialotetrahexosyl ganglioside(GM1)in the treatment of spinal cord injury(SCI)and to observe its effect on neuritin and neurofilament light chain protein(NFL).Methods A retrospective study was carried out in 100 cases of SCI patients.The patients admitted to Baoji Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Baoji People's Hospital from February 2022 to May 2024 were divided into a control group and a study group according to the treatment method,with 50 patients in each group.The control group was given GM1 combined with methylprednisolone,and the study group was given Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction combined with GM1.The course of treatment covered three weeks.Before and after the treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA)scores for evaluating the degree of spinal cord injury,Modified Ashworth Spasticity Scale(MASS)and Manual Muscle Testing(MMT)scores for assessing muscle tone and muscle strength,scores of Functional Ambulation Category Scale(FAC)and Lower-Extremity Motor Subscale(LEMS)of ASIA for assessing lower extremity motor function,and serum levels of neuron-specific enolase(NSE),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),nerve growth factor(NGF),S100B protein(S100B),Neuritin,and NFL.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and the incidence of complications in the two groups were compared.Results(1)After three weeks of treatment,the total effective rate of the study group was 90.00%(45/50)and that of the control group was 74.00%(37/50),and the intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the clinical efficacy of the study group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.05).(2)After treatment,the two groups presented a decrease in the scores of TCM symptoms of limb numbness,limb paralysis,dysuria,irregular defecation,pale complexion,swelling and pain at injured spot,palpitation and spontaneous sweating,and shortness of breath and fatigue when compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease of the scores in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(3)After treatment,the evaluation of ASIA scores for the degree of spinal cord injury showed that the motor function,tactile and pain scores in the two group were increased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(4)After treatment,MASS and MMT scores for assessing muscle tone and muscle strength in the two groups were increased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(5)After treatment,the FAC score and LEMS scores for assessing lower extremity motor function in the two groups were increased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(6)After treatment,the serum levels of NSE,GFAP,NGF,S100B,Neuritin,and NFL in the two groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(7)The incidence of complications in the study group was 6.00%(3/50),and that in the control group was 16.00(8/50),the comparison between the two groups showed that the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction combined with GM1 exerts remarkable efficacy in treating patients with SCI,and is effective on relieving clinical symptoms,reducing the degree of spinal cord injury,enhancing the motor function of the lower extremitiess,and improving the muscle strength and tone.Its therapeutic mechanism may be related to the improvement of the expression level of serum factors such as Neuritin and NFL.

Persistent inflammation,immuno-suppression and catabolism syndrome(PICS)occurs at the later stage of sepsis,characterized by T cell dysfunction with severe poor outcome.Recent studies found that T cell function be largely affected by its metabolic status.In sepsis,a variety of signaling molecules,including the nutrients,could trigger T cell to undergo metabolic reprogramming that from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis via phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)-serine/threonine kinases(Akt)-mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)pathway,leading to severe alterations of its immune phenotype.Glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1)is a kind of incretin hormone that could regulate nutrients and energy metabolism in the body.It can reduce blood glucose level,suppress the immune and inflammatory responses.Plasma GLP-1 levels were rapidly elevated in sepsis and correlated closely with the outcome in critical care.GLP-1 receptor(GLP-1R)agonist could block the glycolysis of T cells,reduce glucose transporter type 1 mRNA expression,and inhibit T cell proliferation.Therefore,the elevated GLP-1 level may represent the metabolic switch toward"aerobic glycolysis",reflecting the pathological status of PICS.Here,the review elucidates the regulation of GLP-1 on the immune function and metabolic reprogramming of T cells and provides strategies for the prevention and treatment of T cell immune dysfunction in sepsis via GLP-1 receptor.
