Lung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality rates globally. Current treatment methods for lung cancer primarily include surgery， chemotherapy， targeted therapy， and immunotherapy. However， the main limitations of these treatments are their side effects， the drug resistance， and the economic burden they impose. As a critical cancer pathway， the Janus kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT） signaling pathway regulates tumor occurrence and development through multiple mechanisms by influencing various downstream targets. Consequently， the JAK/STAT signaling pathway offers a promising avenue for lung cancer treatment research. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the JAK/STAT signaling pathway plays a key role in the proliferation and growth of lung cancer cells， angiogenesis， epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT）， metabolic alterations， remodeling of the immune microenvironment， and the development of treatment resistance. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has garnered increasing attention due to its minimal side effects， low economic burden， and its potential to enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity when used in conjunction with Western medicine. In addition to traditional Chinese medicine compounds， a growing number of Chinese medicine monomers have come into the spotlight because of their more targeted effects. Numerous studies investigating the regulation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway by TCM in the treatment of lung cancer have demonstrated that TCM can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of lung cancer cells， tumor angiogenesis， and EMT， improve the inflammatory and immunosuppressive microenvironments， and enhance treatment sensitivity by intervening in the JAK/STAT signaling pathway， thereby impeding the progression of lung cancer. In recent years， the research on the regulation of this pathway by TCM in the treatment of lung cancer has been updated rapidly. However， the summary of these studies has not been updated in time. This review summarizes and reflects on the recent research findings regarding the regulation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway by TCM to intervene in lung cancer from three aspects， introducing the JAK/STAT pathway， elaborating the mechanism of this pathway in lung cancer， and exploring the intervention of TCM in the treatment of lung cancer through this pathway， to provide more reference for the treatment of lung cancer in the future.

Stroke is the main cause of death and disability among adults in China and is characterized by high incidence， disability， mortality， and recurrence rates. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has great potential in treating stroke and its sequelae. The classic traditional Chinese medicine prescription Da Chengqitang （DCQT） has a long history and proven efficacy in treating stroke. Clinically， DCQT is often used to treat stroke and its sequelae. However， the number and quality of clinical trials of DCQT in treating stroke need to be improved. Because of the insufficient basic research， the active ingredients and multi-target mechanism of action of DCQT remain unclear. Our research group has previously confirmed that DCQT can effectively reverse neurological damage， reduce iron deposition， and downregulate the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the rat model of hemorrhagic stroke. The treatment mechanism is related to the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）-mediated signaling pathway and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling-mediated microglia activation. To clarify the pharmacodynamic basis and anti-stroke mechanism of DCQT， this article reviews the research progress in the treatment of stroke with DCQT in terms of clinical trials， pharmacodynamic material basis， safety evaluation， and mechanisms of absorbed components. This article summarizes 45 major phytochemical components of DCQT， 11 of which are currently confirmed absorbed components. Among them， emodin， rhein， chrysophanol， aloe-emodin， synephrine， hesperidin， naringin， magnolol， and honokiol can be used as quality markers （Q-markers） of DCQT. The mechanism of DCQT in treating stroke is complex， involving regulation of inflammatory responses， neuronal damage， oxidative stress， blood-brain barrier， brain-derived neurotrophic factor， and anti-platelet aggregation. This article helps to deeply understand the pharmacodynamic basis and mechanism of DCQT in treating stroke and provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of DCQT in treating stroke and the development of stroke drugs.

Objective:This study aims to evaluate the clinical utility of total IgE （tIgE） and specific IgE （sIgE） levels in nasal secretions for diagnosing allergic rhinitis. The investigation is enhanced through an improved method of nasal secretion collection and advanced quantum dot immunofluorescence detection technology. Methods:A total of 88 subjects were enrolled in this study, and demographic data and clinical characteristics were collected through standardized questionnaires. Anterior rhinoscope was used to check the local condition of the nasal cavity. Each participant underwent skin prick test（SPT）. The total IgE（tIgE） and sIgE in nasal secretions were quantitatively analyzed by improved nasal secretion collection strategy and quantum dot immunofluorescence method, and the correlation between them and clinical symptoms and signs was discussed. The receiver operating characteristic curve（ROC） was used to calculate the optimum threshold and detection efficiency of total IgE and sIgE in nasal secretions. Results:The improved method successfully collected nasal secretions from all subjects. Based on SPT results, participants were categorized into three groups: normal control （20 cases）, non-allergic rhinitis （22 cases）, and allergic rhinitis （46 cases）. Analysis showed that both tIgE and sIgE levels in nasal secretions correlated with nasal symptoms and signs. A tIgE level of ≥9.42 IU/mL was identified as a cut-off for allergic rhinitis diagnosis, demonstrating an 85.37% agreement with SPT results. Furthermore, cut-off values for house dust mite sIgE （≥0.34 IU/mL） and dermatophagoides Farinae sIgE （≥0.41 IU/mL） yielded a diagnostic agreement of 97.56% with SPT. Notably, two patients in the non-allergic rhinitis group tested negative for SPT but positive for dust mite sIgE in nasal secretions and exhibited positive results in the nasal provocation test, indicating potential local allergic rhinitis. Conclusion:The assessment of tIgE and mite-specific IgE levels in nasal secretions presents a rapid, reliable, and non-invasive approach for diagnosing allergic rhinitis, particularly in cases of local allergic rhinitis.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the effect of A. muciniphila gavage on intestinal microbiota and gut-brain interaction disorders (DGBIs) in gp120tg transgenic mouse models of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). METHODS: Intestinal microbiota was detected by 16S rRNA gene sequencing in 6-, 9-, and 12-month-old wild-type (WT) mice and gp120tg transgenic mice. The 12-month-old WT and transgenic mice were divided into 2 groups for daily treatment with PBS or A.muciniphila gavage (2×10⁸ CFU/mouse) for 6 weeks. After the treatment, immunohistochemistry, ELISA and qPCR were used to detect changes in colonic expression levels of glycosylated mucins, MBP and IL-1β, eosinophil infiltration, serum lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels, and colonic expressions of occludin, ZO-1, IL-10, TNF-α and INF-γ mRNA. Morris water maze test and immunofluorescence assay were used to assess learning and spatial memory abilities and neuronal damage of the mice. RESULTS: Compared with WT mice, the transgenic mice exhibited significantly lowered Simpson's diversity of the intestinal microbiota with reduced abundance of Akkermansia genus, increased serum LPS levels and decreased colonic expression of glycosylated mucin. A.muciniphila gavage obviously ameliorated the reduction of glycosylated mucin in the transgenic mice without causing significant changes in body weight. The 12-month-old gp120tg mice had significantly decreased cdonic expressions of Occludin and ZO-1 with increased eosinophil infiltration and TNF-β, INF-γ and IL-1β levels and obviously lowered IL-10 level; all these changes were significantly mitigated by A.muciniphila gavage, which also improved cognitive impairment and neuronal loss in the hippocampus and cortex of the transgenic mice. CONCLUSIONS The gp120tg mice have lower intestinal microbiota richness and diversity than WT mice. The 12-month-old gp120tg mice have significantly reduced Akkermansia abundance with distinct DGBIs-related indexes, and A. muciniphila gavage can reduce intestinal barrier injury, colonic inflammation and eosinophil activation, cognitive impairment and brain neuron injury in these mice.

The efficient production of L-glutamate is dependent on the product's rapid efflux, hence researchers have recently concentrated on artificially modifying its transport system and cell membrane wall structure. Considering the unique composition and structure of the cell wall of Corynebacterium glutamicum, we investigated the effects of CmpLs on L-glutamate synthesis and transport in SCgGC7, a constitutive L-glutamate efflux strain. First, the knockout strains of CmpLs were constructed, and it was confirmed that the deletion of CmpL1 and CmpL4 significantly improved the performance of L-glutamate producers. Next, temperature-sensitive L-glutamate fermentation with the CmpL1 and CmpL4 knockout strains were carried out in 5 L bioreactors, where the knockout strains showcased temperature-sensitive characteristics and enhanced capacities for L-glutamate production under high temperatures. Notably, the CmpL1 knockout strain outperformed the control strain in terms of L-glutamate production, showing production and yield increases of 69.2% and 55.3%, respectively. Finally, the intracellular and extracellular metabolites collected at the end of the fermentation process were analyzed. The modification of CmpLs greatly improved the L-glutamate excretion and metabolic flux for both L-glutamate production and transport. Additionally, the CmpL1 knockout strain showed decreased accumulation of downstream metabolites of L-glutamate and intermediate metabolites of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, which were consistent with its high L-glutamate biosynthesis capacity. In addition to offering an ideal target for improving the stability and performance of the industrial strains for L-glutamate production, the functional complementarity and redundancy of CmpLs provide a novel target and method for improving the transport of other metabolites by modification of the cell membrane and cell wall structures in C. glutamicum.

ObjectiveTo investigate the antidepressant effect of Sinisan （SNS） by regulating glycogen aynthase kinase-3β （GSK-3β）/tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3（A20）/CCAAT enhancer binding protein β（C/EBPβ） to inhibit the activation of microglia. MethodA total of 72 male C57/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， fluoxetine group （5.0 mg·kg^-1）， low-dose Sinisan group （4.9 g·kg^-1）， medium-dose Sinisan group （9.8 g·kg^-1）， and high-dose Sinisan group （19.6 g·kg^-1）， with 12 mice in each group. After one week of adaptive feeding， chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS） was performed to establish the depression model. In the fifth week， drug treatment was conducted for four weeks. In the ninth week， behavioral tests were performed， including sucrose preference test （SPT）， open field test （OPT）， elevated plus maze （EPM） test， and forced swimming test （FST）. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， GSK-3β， A20， and C/EBPβ in the cortex. The expression of M1-polarized ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba1） and cluster of differentiation 68 （CD68） in microglia was detected by immunofluorescence. ResultAfter eight weeks of CUMS， compared with the normal group， the mice in the model group had a significantly reduced sucrose preference rate （P<0.01）， and the activity in the central area of the OPT was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The activity in the open arm area of the EPM test was significantly reduced （P<0.05）， and the immobility time of FST was increased （P<0.01）. The expression levels of inflammatory proteins IL-1β， IL-6， and iNOS were increased （P<0.01）， and the fluorescence co-localization index of Iba1 and CD68 was increased （P<0.05）. The protein expression levels of GSK-3β and C/EBPβ were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. After four weeks of SNS intervention， compared with the model group， the mice in the SNS group had significantly increased sucrose preference rate （P<0.01）， significantly increased activities in the central area and the open arm area in the OPT and the EPM test （P<0.05）， and significantly reduced immobility time in the FST （P< 0.01）. The protein expression levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and iNOS were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and the fluorescence co-localization index of Iba1 and CD68 was decreased in the high-dose SNS group （P<0.05）. The protein expression levels of GSK-3β and C/EBPβ in the medium-dose and high-dose SNS groups were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and that of A20 was significantly increased （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe antidepressant effect of SNS is related to the regulation of GSK-3β/A20/C/EBPβ protein expression and the inhibition of M1-type activation of microglia.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Wumei pill on ulcerative colitis(UC)in mice based on the anti oxidative stress pathway of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/antioxidant response element(ARE).Methods Seventy SPF male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the control group,the UC group,the mesalazine group(MES group,0.82 g/kg MES),the low dose Wumei pill group(WMW-L group,5 g/kg crude drug),the middle dose Wumei pill group(WMW-M group,10 g/kg crude drug),the high dose Wumei pill group(WMW-H group,20 g/kg crude drug)and the high dose Wumei pills+Nrf2 inhibitor ML-385 group(WMW-H+ML-385 group,Wumei pills crude drug 20 g/kg+20 mg/kg ML-385),with 10 rats in each group.The disease activity index(DAI)score and colonic mucosa injury score were performed in mice after the last administration.Pathological changes of colonic mucosa in mice were observed by HE staining.The levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and IL-6 in serum and colon tissue of mice were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The content of malondialdehyde(MDA)in serum and colon tissue of mice was determined by thiobarbituric acid colorimetry(TBA).The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)in serum and colon tissue of mice was measured by xanthine oxidase method.The activity of glutathione peroxidase(GSH-px)in serum and colon tissue of mice was determined by direct method with dithiodinitrobenzoic acid(DTNB).The positive expression of Nrf2 in colon tissue of mice was observed by immunohistochemistry.The expression of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase-1(NQO1)proteins in colon tissue of mice were detected by Western blot assay.Results Compared with the control group,the DAI score,colonic mucosa injury score,colonic histopathology score,levels of IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6 and MDA in serum and colonic tissue,and expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1 and NQO1 protein in colonic tissue of mice were increased in the UC group,levels of SOD and GSH-px in serum and colon tissue decreased(P＜0.05),the colon mucosa of mice was seriously damaged.Compared with the UC group,changes of corresponding indexes were contrary to the above in the MES group,the WMW-M group and the WMW-H group.However,the expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1 and NQO1 proteins in colon tissue were increased(P＜0.05),and the damage of colon mucosa in mice was alleviated.Changes of the above indexes were dose-dependent in the WMW-L group,the WMW-M group and the WMW-H group.There were no significant differences in the above indexes between the WMW-H group and the MES group.ML-385 attenuated the improvement effect of high dose Wumei pill on colon mucosa injury.Conclusion Wumei pill may alleviate the colon mucosal damage of UC mice by activating Nrf2/ARE antioxidant stress pathway.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.
