OBJECTIVE To prepare an intelligent responsive liposome-hydrogel nanopreparation co-loaded with gambogic acid (GA), and characterize its antitumor activity in vitro . METHODS GA-ICG-Lip-gel was prepared by ethanol injection and cold dissolution, incorporating GA and the photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG). The appearance and microscopic morphology of GA-ICG-Lip-gel were observed, its encapsulation efficiency and drug loading capacity were measured, and its photothermal conversion performance, photothermal stability, and infrared imaging properties were investigated, along with the determination of its in vitro release profile. Human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were used as objects to investigate the effects of GA-ICG-Lip-gel (or with near-infrared light irradiation) on cell viability, migration ability, and the cellular uptake capacity of GA-ICG-Lip-gel. RESULTS GA-ICG-Lip-gel existed in a solution state at room temperature and transformed into a gel state at 37 ℃. Its microstructure was dense with small pores, and its encapsulation efficiency and drug loading were (96.07±0.86) % and (6.28±1.16) %, respectively. After exposure to near-infrared light, the temperature of GA-ICG-Lip-gel rose above 42 ℃, with no significant attenuation observed in the heating curve. The heating efficiency was dependent on both the irradiation time and drug concentration. Compared to media without gelatinase, the cumulative release rate of GA-ICG-Lip-gel increased in media containing gelatinase. In vitro studies showed that GA-ICG-Lip-gel could be efficiently taken up by MCF-7 cells; GA-ICG-Lip-gel significantly inhibited the viability and migration ability of MCF-7 cells ( P <0.05), and this inhibitory effect was further enhanced under near-infrared light irradiation. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully prepares GA-ICG-Lip-gel, which exhibits favorable photothermal conversion properties and temperature/enzyme dual-responsive drug release characteristics, and demonstrates significant inhibitory effects on the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells.

OBJECTIVE To establish the graded management standards for off-label use of Shenqi fuzheng injection. METHODS Systematic searches were conducted in databases including CNKI, PubMed and the Cochrane Library to retrieve guidelines/consensuses, systematic reviews/meta-analyses, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Shenqi fuzheng injection. The quality of evidence was evaluated using AGREE Ⅱ, AMSTAR Ⅱ, and the Risk of Bias 1.0 tool recommended by Cochrane Collaboration, and the graded management standard for off-label use of Shenqi fuzheng injection was developed by using the Thomson grading system. RESULTS A total of 534 articles were involved, including 11 guidelines, 22 systematic reviews/meta-analysis, and 501 RCTs. They covered 79 off-label indications for Shenqi fuzheng injection: cancer-related fatigue, colorectal cancer and breast cancer, all with high-quality evidence were classified under grade A management (grade Ⅰ commendation), allowing all physicians across the hospital to prescribe relevant treatments; five diseases, such as ovarian cancer, liver cancer, leukemia, heart failure and cerebral infarction, were classified under grade B management (grade Ⅱa commendation), with prescription restricted to physicians with intermediate or higher professional titles in specific departments; eleven diseases, including sepsis, cervical cancer, esophageal cancer, etc., were classified under grade C management (grade Ⅱb commendation), requiring strict evaluation by senior physicians before prescription; the use of Shenqi fuzheng injection for other conditions was explicitly prohibited due to a lack of sufficient evidence. CONCLUSIONS Off-label use of Shenqi fuzheng injection is prevalent. The graded management standard established by evidence-based medical approach provides a scientific basis for standardizing the clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine injections and offers an operable paradigm for implementing differentiated drug use supervision in medical institutions.

Objective To prepare and characterize the mouse polyclonal antibody against the dense granule protein 24 (GRA24) of Toxoplasma gondii, and explore its preliminary applications. Methods The GRA24 coding sequences of different T. gondii strains were aligned using the MEGA-X software, and the dominant peptide of the GRA24 protein was analyzed with the Protean software. The base sequence encoding this peptide was amplified using PCR assay and ligated into the pET-28a vector, and the generated GRA24 truncated protein was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21. After induction by isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), the expression and purification of the recombinant GRA24 protein was analyzed using sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). BALB/c mice were immunized by subcutaneous injection with the purified recombinant GRA24 truncated protein to generate the polyclonal antibody, and the titer of the polyclonal antibody was measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The specificity of the polyclonal antibody was tested using Western blotting, and the intracellular localization of the polyclonal antibody was investigated using immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Results SDS-PAGE showed successful construction of the recombinant expression plasmid, and Coomassie brilliant blue staining showed the generation of the high-purity recombinant GRA24 truncated protein. ELISA measured that the titer of the polyclonal antibody against the GRA24 truncated protein was higher than 1:208 400, and Western blotting showed that the polyclonal antibody was effective to recognize the endogenous GRA24 proteins of different T. gondii strains and specifically recognize the recombinant GRA24 truncated protein. Indirect IFA showed that the GRA24 protein secreted 16 hour following T. gondii invasion in host cells. Conclusions The polyclonal antibody against the T. gondii GRA24 protein has been successfully prepared, which has a widespread applicability, high titers and a high specificity. This polyclonal antibody is available for Western blotting and IFA, which provides the basis for investigating the function of the GRA24 protein.

Objective:To estimate and analyze the levels of occupational exposure of aircrews in China, and to provide scientific basis for strengthening occupational health management.Methods:Through the FlightAware website, the flight data were collected of a total of 104 routes flying between airports with large passenger volume in China. Four kinds of cosmic radiation dose estimation programs CARI, SIEVERT, PCAIRE, and JISCARD-EX were compared and analyzed from the aspects of covering the number of airports in China, program user experience and example calculation of airline effective dose. Based on route logs, CARI-7A was applied to estimate the levels of occupational exposure of Chinese aircrews to cosmic radiation.Results:The difference in the effective doses calculated by use of these four cosmic radiation dose estimation programs for the routes with different solar activity levels was statistically significant ( M=7.52-180.98, P<0.05). The annual effective dose estimated by PCAIRE for 68 routes from 2014 to 2021 was significantly higher than that estimated by CARI-7A ( Z=2.52, P<0.05). Based on CARI-7A, the annual effective doses from cosmic radiation to aircrews in China from 2014 to 2021 were estimated, being 1.26 (0.57-2.35) mSv for flight attendants and 1.03 (0.47-1.92) mSv for pilots. The effective dose from cosmic radiation to aircrews on a single flight on some high-frequency routes in China ranged from 0.57 to 6.88 μSv. Conclusions:The level of occupational exposure of Chinese aircrews to cosmic radiation meets the requirements of national standards, but is higher than that of occupational exposure from medical and industrial applications of radiation, so it is still necessary to further strengthen the mamagememt of occupational exposure and occupational health of aircrews.
