HDAC7, a member of class IIa HDACs, plays a pivotal regulatory role in tumor, immune, fibrosis, and angiogenesis, rendering it a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, due to the high similarity in the enzyme active sites of class IIa HDACs, inhibitors encounter challenges in discerning differences among them. Furthermore, the substitution of key residue in the active pocket of class IIa HDACs renders them pseudo-enzymes, leading to a limited impact of enzymatic inhibitors on their function. In this study, proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology was employed to develop HDAC7 drugs. We developed an exceedingly selective HDAC7 PROTAC degrader B14 which showcased superior inhibitory effects on cell proliferation compared to TMP269 in various diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Subsequent investigations unveiled that B14 disrupts BCL6 forming a transcriptional inhibition complex by degrading HDAC7, thereby exerting proliferative inhibition in DLBCL. Our study broadened the understanding of the non-enzymatic functions of HDAC7 and underscored the importance of HDAC7 in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly in DLBCL and AML.

AIM:Hepatotoxicity of Brucea javani-ca picryl with broad-spectrum anticancer effect in nude mice based on hepatic drug metabolizing en-zyme CYP450 activity.METHODS:Fifty-six nude mice were randomly divided into blank group,Bru-cea javanica low-dose group(2 mg/kg),Brucea ja-vanica high-dose group(4 mg/kg),and cisplatin group(2 mg/kg),with 14 mice in each group.The blank group was injected with the same amount of normal saline every 3 days for 6 weeks.Calculate the mortality rate of nude mice in each group,ob-serve the general growth state of nude mice,re-cord the weight change of nude mice before and af-ter administration,weigh and record the liver weight after taking materials,and calculate the liv-er coefficient(liver weight/weight mass×100％),ob-serve and record the liver color and morphology.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to ob-serve the pathological changes of liver tissue.De-tection of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspar-tate aminotransferase(AST),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),alkaline phosphatase(AKP)and albumin(ALB)levels in serum of nude mice by ELISA.Real-time PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of CYP2E1,CYP3A11,CYP2C19,CYP1A2,CYP2D6 and CYP2C9,which were key enzymes of drug metabolism in nude mice liver.RESULTS:Compared with the blank group,the mortality rate of nude mice in the low-dose Brucea javanica bitter alcohol group was 0,the growth state was good,the diet,movement,and mental state were normal,the weight change and liver coefficient ratio were consistent,the liver color was ruddy,the liver lobule morphology was complete under the microscope,the structure was clear,the liver cells were arranged regularly,and there was no inflammatory cell infiltration.There was no significant difference in the content of ALT,AST,LDH,AKP,and ALB.There was no significant difference in the mRNA and protein expression of CYP2E1,CYP3A11,CYP2C19,CYP1A2,CYP2D6,and CYP2C9(all P＞0.05).Compared with the blank group,the mortality rate of nude mice in the high-dose group of Brucea javanica bitter alcohol was 14.3％,the growth state was slightly poor,the diet,movement,and mental state were reduced,the weight growth was slow,the liver coefficient ratio was increased,the liver color was reddish brown,some liver lobule boundaries were unclear,a small number of liver cells were loosely arranged,the contents of ALT,AST,LDH,AKP,and ALB were signif-icantly increased,the mRNA levels of CYP2E1,CYP3A11,CYP2C19,CYP1A2,CYP2D6,and CYP2C9 were significantly reduced,and the protein expres-sions of CYP2E1,CYP3A11,CYP1A2,and CYP2D6 were significantly reduced(all P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),but there was no statistical difference in the mRNA and protein expression of CYP2C19,and the pro-tein expression of CYP2C9(P＞0.05).Compared with the blank group,the mortality rate of nude mice in the cisplatin group was 35.7％,the growth state was poor,the diet,action,and mental state were low,the weight gain was less,the liver coefficient ratio was significantly increased,the liver color was dark red,the liver sinusoids and central veins were congested,the hepatocytes were disordered,the nuclei were consolidated and contracted,and the arrangement was loose,the contents of ALT,AST,LDH,AKP,and ALB were significantly increased,and the mRNA and protein expressions of CYP2E1,CYP3A11,CYP2C19,CYP1A2,CYP2D6,and CYP2C9 were significantly reduced(all P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:The dose of Brucea javanica bitter alcohol is correlated with hepatotoxicity to nude mice.High doses of Brucea javanica bitter alcohol have hepatotoxicity to nude mice,which may be re-lated to reducing serum levels of ALT,AST,LDH,AKP,and ALB,inhibiting the expression of multiple subtypes of enzymes in the key enzyme CYP450 of liver drug metabolism,and then reducing the me-tabolism of toxic substances.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a proliferative vascular retinal disease. Cryotherapy, laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, scleral buckling surgery and vitrectomy are the main treatments. Treated with cryotherapy or laser photocoagulation or intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, patients with a history of ROP have thicker foveas, and the morphology of the fovea and the development of the retinal vessels in the macular area are affected, resulting in abnormal vision development. However, the specific mechanisms by which different treatments of ROP affecting the development of the macula are not yet clear. It still need further study with large samples to verify and explore, whether changes in the levels of intraocular vascular endothelial growth factor changing the process of normal macular development and how the abnormal development of the macula affects visual function.

Objective:To investigate the effect of serum lipid level on prognosis of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) at the initial treatment.Methods:The clinical data of patients with SCLC from 2012 to 2017 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the standard of appropriate level and abnormal stratification of blood lipid in Chinese population, the lipids included total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC) at the time of initial treatment were grouped. Then the relationship between different lipid levels and clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed. Finally, Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the independent prognostic factors of patients.Results:A total of 129 patients with SCLC were included in this study. At the time of initial treatment, there were 90 (69.8%) cases whose TC < 5.2 mmol/L, while 39 (30.2%) cases ≥5.2 mmol/L; 95 (73.6%) cases whose TG <1.7 mmol/L, while 34 (26.4%) cases ≥1.7 mmol/L; 27 (20.9%) cases whose HDLC <1.0 mmol/L while 102 cases (79.1%) ≥1.0 mmol/L; 90 (69.8%) cases whose LDLC <3.4 mmol/L while 39 cases (30.2%) ≥3.4 mmol/L. The patients′ triglyceride initial treatment was associated with their body mass index ( P<0.05). The median disease-free survival (PFS) of SCLC patients was related with their serum TC level and clinical stage ( P<0.05) and the overall survival (OS) was related with clinical stage of SCLC patients ( P<0.05). The median PFS of SCLC patients in the TC <1.7 mmol/L group at the initial treatment was 10.5 months, significantly longer than 8.8 months of the TC ≥1.7 mmol/L group ( P=0.024). The median OS of SCLC patients in the TG <1.7 mmol/L group at the initial treatment was 20.2 months, marginally longer than 15.6 months of the TG ≥1.7 mmol/L group ( P=0.097). Multivariate analysis result showed that, the TG level was an independent risk factor of SCLC progression at the time of initial treatment ( P=0.024). There was no significant correlation of TC, HDLC, LDLC and SCLC prognosis ( P>0.05). Conclusion:TG level is an independent risk factor for the progression of SCLC at the time of initial treatment, and the increase of TG level indicates rapid disease progression and poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the changes of liver spin-lattice relaxation time (T 1rho) values in the rotating frame in the progression and regression of carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4)-induced model rats with liver fibrosis and the diagnostic values for staging liver fibrosis. Methods:Eighty rats were prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into the CCl 4 group ( n=49), the regression group ( n=20) and the control group ( n=11). All rats were labeled and then examined using MRI at baseline. The liver fibrosis model was established by subcutaneous injection of 40% CCl 4 in hackles. The CCl 4 group underwent black-blood T 1rho imaging at the end of the 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th week post CCl 4 injection. The regression group underwent black-blood T 1rho imaging at the end of the 4th, 6th week post CCl 4 injection and the end of 1st, 2nd, 4th, 6th week post CCl 4 withdrawal (the injection was stopped at the end of the 6th week). The control group was injected with the same amount of corn oil at the same time point and underwent black-blood T 1rho imaging at the end of 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th week. The liver T 1rho values were measured in each group over time. Independent-samples t test was used to analyze the differences of liver T 1rho values in adjacent time points. The experimental mice were divided into no liver fibrosis group (S0), mild liver fibrosis group (S1, 2) and moderate or severe liver fibrosis group (S3, 4). The differences of liver T 1rho values were analyzed in different fibrosis stages by Kruskal-Wallis H test. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic ability of T 1rho values in staging liver fibrosis. The correlation between liver T 1rho values and fibrosis stages was analyzed using Spearman correlation coefficient. Results:Fifty-nine rats completed the whole experiment, including 28 rats in the CCl 4 group, 20 rats in the recovery group and 11 rats in the control group. In the CCl 4 group, the liver T 1rho values gradually increased, reached the maximum at the end of week 8, and then gradually decreased. There was statistically significance in liver T 1rho values at the adjacent time points ( P<0.05) except at the 4th to 6th week ( P=0.112) and 10th to 12th week ( P=0.487) in the CCl 4 group. In regression group, the liver T 1rho values gradually increased post CCl 4 injection and decreased post CCl 4 injection withdrawal. There was statistically significance in liver T 1rho values at the adjacent time points ( P<0.05) in regression group. There was no statistically significance in liver T 1rho values at the adjacent time points ( P>0.05) in control group. The T 1rho values in the no liver fibrosis group (S0, n=15), the mild liver fibrosis group (S1, 2, n=23) and the moderate or severe liver fibrosis group (S3, 4, n=21) were [36.3(34.4,41.4)], (47.2±8.4), (48.8±9.0) ms, respectively. The liver T 1rho values increased with the aggravation of the liver fibrosis, and there was a low positive correlation between them ( r=0.402, P=0.001). There were statistically significant differences in T 1rho values among the three groups ( P<0.01).The area under the curve values to distinguish no liver fibrosis (S0) from liver fibrosis (S1 to 4) and no or mild liver fibrosis (S0 to 2) from moderately or severe liver fibrosis (S3,4) were 0.825 (95% confidence intervals is 0.720 to 0.931) and 0.668 (95% confidence intervals is 0.540 to 0.796), separately. Conclusion:The liver T 1rho values are useful for evaluating the progression and regression of liver fibrosis. It has a moderate diagnostic value to assess the presence of liver fibrosis, but a low diagnostic value to differentiate no or mild liver fibrosis from moderately to severe liver fibrosis.

Our country has gradually promoted the development of hospice care from the government, society, education and other levels, but has invested less in systematic education. This article reviews the development status of hospice care education at home and abroad in order to provide a reference for the development of related education in our country.

Objective: To probe into the mechanism and interventional effects of silybin-phospholipid complex on amiodarone-induced steatosis in mice. Methods: Eight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups (5 mice in each group): a control group (WT) with normal diet, a model group with amiodarone 150mg/kg/d by oral gavage (AM), and an intervention group on amiodarone 150mg/kg/d combined with silybin-phospholipid complex(AM+SILIPHOS. All mice were fed their assigned diet for one week. Then, one week later, serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, triglyceride, total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein were detected of each group. A liver pathological change was observed by oil red O and H&E staining. Ultrastructural pathological changes of hepatocytes were observed to evaluate the intervention effect by transmission electron microscopy. RT-q PCR was used to detect the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and its regulated lipid metabolism genes CPTI, CPTII, Acot1, Acot2, ACOX, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a14 in liver tissues. Intra-group comparison was done by paired t-test. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between groups and semi-quantitative data were tested using Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Oil Red O and H&E staining results of liver tissue in the intervention group showed that intrahepatic steatosis was significantly reduced when compared to model group. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the model group had pyknotic nuclei, mitochondrial swelling, structural damage, and lysosomal degradation whereas the intervention group had hepatic nucleus without pyknosis, reduced mitochondrial swelling and slight structural damage than that of model group. RT-q PCR results showed that the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, CPTI, CPTII, Acot1, Acot2, ACOX, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a14 were increased in the model group but the expression of CPTI, Cyp4a14, Acot1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha were decreased in the intervention group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Silybin-phospholipid complex can alleviate amiodarone-induced steatosis, and its mechanism may play a role in protecting mitochondrial function and regulating fatty acid metabolism. Thus, silybin-phospholipid complex has potential intervention effect on amiodarone-induced fatty liver.
