Based on the modern understanding that lipid metabolism disorders mediate tumor microenvironmental imbalance in esophageal carcinoma， this paper proposes that failure of spleen and kidney warming and internal accumulation of phlegm-toxin constitute the core pathogenesis of esophageal carcinoma. Deficiency of spleen and kidney yang qi serves as the root cause， while impaired transformation and transportation of lipids and the accumulation of phlegm-toxin represent the superficial manifestations. Phlegm originates from the transformation of lipids， while toxin arises from and attaches to phlegm. Their interaction forms a sticky and persistent pathological state that runs throughout the entire disease process. The evolution of pathogenesis follows a dynamic and progressive pattern. In the early stage， failure of spleen and kidney warming and dysfunction of lipid metabolism mediate abnormalities in a lipid-enriched microenvironment； in the middle stage， lipid turbidity condenses into phlegm， and phlegm-toxin stasis promotes the formation of an inflammatory and hypercoagulable microenvironment； in the late stage， dysfunction of the sanjiao （三焦） warming function and impaired qi transformation lead to an imbalance in the hypoxic and metabolically dysfunctional microenvironment. Accordingly， a staged therapeutic approach is proposed， including warming the kidney and strengthening the spleen， transforming phlegm and resolving toxin， and warming and unblocking the sanjiao. By regulating lipid metabolism to restore tumor microenvironmental homeostasis， this approach provides a new theore-tical perspective and practical strategy for the intervention of esophageal cancer progression through traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective: This study employed next-generation sequencing (NGS) for large-scale genotyping of 42 blood group systems in blood donors to evaluate its applicability in multi-system blood group identification and rare blood type repository construction, while exploring the complementary value of third-generation sequencing (TGS) in haplotype phasing and variant capture in regions with insufficient sequencing depth for ABO ambiguous samples. Methods: A total of 562 regular blood donors (median donation frequency 11 times) from a blood center were enrolled. NGS was used for genotyping of 42 blood group systems, with a focused analysis on 12 systems essential for rare blood type repository construction: MNS, Lutheran, Kell, Duffy, Kidd, Diego, Yt, Colton, Gerbich, Ok, H, and I. TGS was employed to resolve haplotype phasing (i. e., determining whether different mutation sites are located on the same chromosome) in 12 ABO samples with discrepancies between forward and reverse typing. Serological and genotyping results were compared for MNS, Duffy, Kidd, Lewis, and ABO systems. Results: NGS-based genotyping revealed that Fy (a-b+) in the Duffy system accounted for 0.87% (4/458), and Di (a+b+) in the Diego system accounted for 10.62% (31/292). The Lutheran, Kell, Yt, Colton, H, Ok, I, and Gerbich systems exhibited near-uniform phenotype distributions. Among the 12 ABO ambiguous samples, NGS yielded multiple possible genotype combinations in 5 cases due to inability to phase alleles, whereas TGS uniquely resolved the genotypes through long-read sequencing. In one case, NGS detected only 2 mutation sites due to insufficient sequencing depth, while TGS identified all 11 sites and assigned the A1 phenotype. Concordance rates between serology and genotyping were: Duffy 96.55% (140/145), ABO 96.43% (513/532), Kidd 94.17% (97/103), MNS 85.07% (57/67), and Lewis 68.18% (75/110). In the MNS system, 7 of 8 samples serologically typed as M+N+ but genotyped as M-N+ carried GYPB variants. Lewis discrepancies predominantly featured genotype Le (a-b+) with serological phenotypes of Le (a+b-), Le (a+b+), or Le (a-b-). The NGS platform completed sequencing of 192 samples within 2 weeks. Conclusion: The tiered genotyping strategy combining NGS, TGS, and serology enables multi-system blood group identification in large-scale blood donor populations. TGS provides complementary value in phasing ambiguous ABO samples and detecting variants in regions with insufficient sequencing depth. This study provides a technical framework and baseline frequency data for the expansion of a local rare blood type repository. However, standardization and cost-effectiveness of this strategy require further validation with expanded sample sizes, and serological confirmation should be retained for secretion status-related systems such as Lewis.

Radiation enteritis(RE)is an inflammatory reaction caused by radiation exposure,commonly observed following radiotherapy for malignancies in the abdominal,pelvic and retroperitoneal regions.The authors believe that the pathogenesis of RE is complex,involving factors such as deficiency and excess,cold and heat,as well as qi and blood.The general pathogenesis can be summarized as"instability of the Zhongzhou,depletion of essence and blood,dysregulation of ascending and descending,and accumulation of heat-toxins".And"the instability of the Zhongzhou and subsequent malnutrition of the intestines"are the key drivers of disease progression.Based on theoretical exploration and clinical observations,this article proposed a comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic approach centered on"stabilizing the Zhongzhou,replenishing essence and blood,regulating ascending and descending functions,and clearing heat-toxins".These four methods are often applied simultaneously,with"stabilizing the Zhongzhou and regulating the intestines"serving as the core of treatment.The approach is tailored according to the individual patient's condition of blood,qi and body fluids.A medical case was attached as evidence for verification.

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide and has drawn extensive research attention.Owing to its molecular heterogeneity,drug resistance,and low therapeutic response,single-modality treatments often fail to achieve satisfactory efficacy or broad applicability.Combination therapy,designed based on the pathophysiological characteristics,related signaling pathways,and biomarkers of breast cancer,has emerged as a promising approach for improving therapeutic outcomes.With the advancement of research on combination strategies,the understanding of their molecular mechanisms—particularly key signaling pathways and biomarkers—has become increasingly important.However,comprehensive reviews addressing these molecular mechanisms and synergistic strategies remain scarce.This article summarizes recent advances in combination therapy for breast cancer,providing a comprehensive review of recent combination therapies for breast cancer and their underlying molecular mechanisms,and focusing on key signaling pathways involved in combination therapy and synergistic strategies,thereby providing theoretical insights and reference for researchers,graduate students,and clinicians engaged in the development of novel combination therapeutic strategies for breast cancer and related malignancies.

Sonodynamic therapy（SDT）has garnered significant attention in cancer treatment modalities due to its superior tissue penetration capabilities，non-invasive approach，and controllability. SDT operates by utilizing sonosensitizers and ultrasound-responsive devices to induce the production of reactive oxygen species（ROS）under ultrasound stimulation，thereby eliciting immunogenic cell death（ICD）in tumor cells and the release of damage-associated molecular patterns，which in turn trigger an immune response against the tumor.However，the tumor microenvironment often results in a relatively weak immune response post-cancer treatment. To address this issue，extensive research is being conducted on combining SDT with immunotherapy，particularly focusing on immune checkpoint blockade（ICB）therapies. This review synthesizes the mechanisms of SDT，its integration with immunotherapy，especially ICB therapies，and the current state of research，with the objective of providing strategic guidance for the advancement of sonodynamic immunotherapy.

Although tumor immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment，its efficacy against solid tumors remains limited by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment，inefficient drug delivery，and off-target toxicity. Engineered bacterial therapy has recently attracted considerable interest as a promising therapeutic strategy owing to its capacity for selective tumor colonization and immunomodulation. Meanwhile，ultrasound technology provides a non-invasive，spatially precise，and real-time controllable means to improve the performance and applicability of bacterial-mediated therapies. This review summarizes recent advances in ultrasound-regulated bacterial therapy for cancer immunotherapy. Beginning with an examination of the mechanisms through which engineered bacteria modulate antitumor immunity，it is followed by an elucidation of how ultrasound technology exploits its biological effects and spatiotemporal control capabilities to simultaneously enhance bacterial therapy's safety/efficacy and enable tumor treatment visualization，thereby activating systemic immune responses. Finally，current challenges and future directions for clinical translation are critically discussed. In conclusion，ultrasound-regulated bacterial therapy represents an emerging interdisciplinary approach with the potential to overcome key limitations in solid tumor immunotherapy.
