Chemotherapy is currently the mainstay of systemic management for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but chemoresistance significantly impacts patient outcomes. Our research indicates that Doxorubicin (Dox)-resistant TNBC cells exhibit increased glycolysis and ATP generation compared to their parental cells, with this metabolic shift contributing to chemoresistance. We discovered that ALKBH3, an m1A demethylase enzyme, is crucial in regulating the enhanced glycolysis in Dox-resistant TNBC cells. Knocking down ALKBH3 reduced ATP generation, glucose consumption, and lactate production, implicating its involvement in mediating glycolysis. Further investigation revealed that aldolase A (ALDOA), a key enzyme in glycolysis, is a downstream target of ALKBH3. ALKBH3 regulates ALDOA mRNA stability through m1A demethylation at the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR). This methylation negatively affects ALDOA mRNA stability by recruiting the YTHDF2/PAN2-PAN3 complex, leading to mRNA degradation. The ALKBH3/ALDOA axis promotes Dox resistance both in vitro and in vivo. Clinical analysis demonstrated that ALKBH3 and ALDOA are upregulated in breast cancer tissues, and higher expression of these proteins is associated with reduced overall survival in TNBC patients. Our study highlights the role of the ALKBH3/ALDOA axis in contributing to Dox resistance in TNBC cells through regulation of ALDOA mRNA stability and glycolysis.

Objective To investigate the effects of parecoxib sodium on pain and Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/p38 mitogen activated protein kinase(p38MAPK)pathway in rats with femoral fracture.Methods Sixty rats were randomly separated into sham operation group,model group,TLR4 inhibitor(TAK-242)group(3 mg/kg),parecoxib sodium group(10 mg/kg),and parecoxib sodium+TLR4 activator lipopolysaccharide group(10 mg/kg parecoxib sodium+15 mg/kg LPS),with 12 rats in each group.Except for the sham operation group,rats in all other groups were used to establish a femoral fracture model by transverse cutting of the mid femur.After 28 days of treatment in each group,X-rays were used to detect the degree of fracture healing in rats.The mechanical pain threshold(PWMT)and thermal pain threshold(PWTL)of rats were measured.ELISA was applied to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),and IL-10 in serum.Micro-CT method was applied to detect changes in femoral bone density(BMD),bone volume fraction(BV/TV),trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),and trabecular quantity(Tb.N)in rats.HE staining was applied to observe the pathological changes of bone tissue at the fracture site in rats.Western blot was applied to detect the expression of TLR4/p38MAPK pathway related proteins in bone tissue at the fracture site.Results Compared with the sham operation group,the fracture lines of rats in the model group were obvious,with a small amount of callus growth,the PWMT,PWTL,femoral BMD,BV/TV,Tb.Th,and Tb.N decreased,while the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-10,and the levels of TLR4 and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK proteins in the bone tissue at the fracture site increased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the fracture lines in the TAK-242 group and the parecoxib sodium group were blurred,and there was an increase in callus growth,the PWMT,PWTL,femoral BMD,BV/TV,Tb.Th,and Tb.N,the serum IL-10 level increased,while the serum IL-6,TNF-αlevels,the TLR4 and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK protein levels in bone tissue at the fracture site decreased(P<0.05).LPS could upregulate the phosphorylation levels of TLR4 and p38MAPK,and weaken the relieving effects on anti-inflammatory and pain of parecoxib sodium on fracture rats.Conclusion Paracoxib sodium may alleviate pain and accelerate fracture healing in rats with femoral fractures by inhibiting the TLR4/p38MAPK pathway and suppressing inflammatory responses.

Based on the Delphi method, this study conducted an expert questionnaire survey on the diagnostic criteria of edema in TCM by integrating preliminary literature research, aiming to further standardize the revision of Edema diagnosis in Criteria of Diagnosis and Therapeutic Effect of Diseases and Syndromes in Traditional Chinese Medicine (ZY/T001.1-94). Relevant literature on TCM edema was comprehensively retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP and CBM from 1994 to July 1, 2021. The content extracted from the literature was integrated with the diagnostic criteria outlined in the 1994 Criteria of Diagnosis and Therapeutic Effect of Diseases and Syndromes in Traditional Chinese Medicine to establish the questionnaire item pool; two rounds of Delphi expert surveys were conducted to identify content requiring revisions. Subsequently, the degree of concentration and coordination of the expert opinions were analyzed to determine items for inclusion in the revised draft. Ultimately, the finalized revised diagnostic criteria for edema were developed through expert panel discussions. Results showed expert participation rates of 84.21% and 78.13% in respective survey rounds. The progressive increase in Kendall's coefficient of concordance (Kendall's W=0.169 in Round 1 to Kendall's W=0.368 in Round 2) quantitatively validated enhanced expert consensus (both the degree of concentration and coordination) and systematic alignment of revision proposals for diagnostic items. The study findings demonstrated an urgent need for improving the diagnostic criteria section of the the 1994 Criteria of Diagnosis and Therapeutic Effect of Diseases and Syndromes in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the proposed revisions would be expected to enhance the applicability and specificity of edema diagnostic standards in clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo establish the self-reported core outcome set (COS) for patients with an example of a community study on heat-sensitive moxibustion for primary hypertension (PH), to provide a reference for the selection of effectiveness evaluation indicators in community study on heat-sensitive moxibustion. MethodsA systematic literature search was conducted to collect outcomes used in randomized controlled trials and systematic review of heat-sensitive moxibustion for PH (Jan 2021), and additional outcomes were added through patient and expert questionnaires (Feb 2021) to create a pool of outcome entries. A multidisciplinary expert Delphi survey was conducted to screen outcomes applicable to patient self-reporting (Apr 2021), and the importance of outcome indicators was rated on a 5-Point Likert Scale. Finally, patient self-reported COS was determined through a consensus conference (June 2021). ResultsA pool of patient self-reported indicators in the community study of heat-sensitive moxibustion treatment for PH was generated by standardizing and combining the outcome indicators based on the results of the literature search and the questionnaire survey, which consisted of totally 100 measurement tools or contents, excluding 51 indicators or measurement tools required measurement by specialized physicians or hospital equipment, and 49 items were retained to enter the initial list of indicator entries. For the first round of Delphi survey, the mean score for expert familiarity was 0.819, the mean score for basis of judgment was 0.710, and the expert authority coefficient was 0.765, with a total of 21 indicator measurement tools or contents deleted (significance score ≤ 75 or coefficient of variation > 0.25), 28 retained, and 3 new expert-added indicator entries added. In the second round of Delphi survey, the average score for expert familiarity was 0.859, the average score for basis for judgment was 0.763, and the expert authority coefficient was 0.811, with a total of 11 indicator measurement tools or contents deleted and 20 retained involving 5 domains. Following an expert consensus meeting, 8 outcome indicators were finalized for inclusion in the patient self-reported COS, including 6 indicators of effectiveness evaluation such as quality-of-life scores, blood pressure, traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores, cost-benefit, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and adverse reactions/events, and 2 indicators of factors influencing effectiveness such as sensation of heat-sensitive moxibustion, and adherence. ConclusionIn this study, we initially established a criteria for evaluating the effectiveness in the community study on heat-sensitive moxibustion by constructing patient self-reported COS in the community study on heat-sensitive moxibustion for PH, which can provide a scientific research paradigm for the subsequent development of the community study on heat-sensitive moxibustion.
