Stresses induced by the deficiency or excess of trace mineral elements, such as manganese (Mn), represent a common limiting factor for the production of crops like Brassica napus. To identify key genes involved in Mn allocation in B. napus and elucidate the underlying mechanisms, a member of the metal tolerance protein (MTP) family obtained in the previous screening of cDNA library of B. napus under Mn stress was selected as the research subject. Based on the sequence information and phylogenetic analysis, it was named as BnMTP10. It belongs to the Mn-cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) subfamily. Expression of BnMTP10 in yeast significantly improved the tolerance of transformants to excessive Mn and iron (Fe) and reduced the accumulation of Mn and Fe. However, the yeast transformants exhibited no significant changes in tolerance to excess cadmium, boron, aluminum, zinc, or copper. The qRT-PCR results demonstrated that the flowers of B. napus had the highest expression of BnMTP10, followed by roots and leaves. Subcellular localization studies revealed that BnMTP10 was localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Compared with wild-type plants, transgenic Arabidopsis overexpressing BnMTP10 exhibited enhanced tolerance to excessive Mn stress but showed no significant difference under Fe stress. Correspondingly, under excessive Mn stress, the Mn content in the roots of transgenic Arabidopsis increased significantly. However, under excessive Fe stress, the Fe content in transgenic Arabidopsis did not alter significantly. According to the results, we hypothesize that BnMTP10 may alleviate excessive Mn stress in plants by mediating Mn transport to the ER. This study facilitated our understanding of efficient mineral nutrients, and provided theoretical foundations and gene resources for breeding B. napus.

The pathogenesis and progression of depression are closely associated with functional dysregula-tion in the brain's reward and emotion-modulating circuits.As the central hub of the reward system,the nucleus accumbens(NAc)forms aberrant neural circuits with multiple brain regions-including the ventral tegmental area(VTA),medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC),amygdala(AMY),hippocampus(HIP),and paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus(PVT)-which have been empirically linked to depressive symptomatology.Acupuncture,with its multi-target therapeutic profile,aligns well with the multifactorial and multisystem dysregulation characteristic of depressive disorders.This review systematically examines the functional alterations of the NAc-centered neural circuitry in depression and explores the potential mechanisms of acupuncture intervention.Evidence suggests that acupuncture holistically ameliorates depression by:modulating dopaminergic transmission in the VTA-NAc pathway,enhancing neurotransmitter equilibrium in the mPFC-NAc circuit,bidirectionally regulating emotional stability via the AMY-NAc loop,attenuating HIP-NAc glutamatergic hyperactivity,and optimizing excitatory signaling in the thalamus-NAc circuit.Furthermore,this synthesis emphasizes a systems-level integration of circuit mechanisms,highlighting both the clinical applicability of acupuncture in depression treatment and recent advances in mechanistic research.The findings provide robust theoretical foundations and practical guidance for clinical practice,bridging translational neuroscience with therapeutic innovation.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and implementation paths of medical and preventive integration of chronic disease in county medical communities (CMCs), providing references for further promoting the integration of medical and prevention and improving the collaborative mechanism of medical and prevention.Methods:From October to November 2023, based on the principle of geographically balanced sampling, medical staff from 6 leading hospitals and 18 other member units of 6 CMCs in Zhejiang Province were selected as survey subjects. A self-designed survey questionnaire was conducted, mainly including the development and evaluation of chronic disease medical and preventive integration services in CMCs. The service development was designed according to the collaborative symbiosis management model, including 4 dimensions of collaborative symbiosis scenarios, willingness, ability, and process, as well as 11 secondary elements. Using secondary elements as the conditional variables and the integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention as the outcome variable, a qualitative comparative analysis method was used to explore the relationship between multiple conditional variables and their combinations with high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention.Results:571 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.62%. The consistency of a single secondary element(including conditional non sets) on the high effectiveness of medical and preventive integration was less than 0.9, which cannot constitute a necessary condition for explaining the outcome variable. The configuration analysis results showed that the consistency of the condition combination formed by the interaction of multiple secondary elements was 0.835-0.845, indicating that the condition combination of multiple elements constituted a sufficient non necessary condition for the high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention. The configuration path for achieving high integration of medical and preventive effects could be divided into four categories, among which the feature of scenario-process dominance was to create a perfect service scenario and service process as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff and improve the service process as the leading factor; The characteristic of the scenario-willingness-ability dominant type was to create a comprehensive service scenario, stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, and enhance service capabilities as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-ability-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, enhance service capabilities, and improve the service process as the dominant factor. In addition, the four types of configuration paths mentioned above all covered the two secondary elements of endogenous dynamics and professional competence, with a total coverage of 0.626 and a total consistency of 0.821.Conclusions:The configuration path formed through the interaction of multiple elements can effectively achieve the integration of chronic disease medical and prevention. The CMCs should choose the appropriate configuration path based on the actual situation. In addition, special attention should be paid to the endogenous motivation and professional capacity building of medical staff.

Danggui Sinitang is first recorded in the Treatise on Cold Damage written by ZHANG Zhongjing in the Han dynasty. It is composed of Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Paeoniae Radix Alba, Asari Radix et Rhizoma, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Tetrapanacis Medulla, and Jujubae Fructus and serves as a classic formula for treating the syndrome of blood deficiency and cold reversal. This study systematically reviews the records of Danggui Sinitang in ancient Chinese medicine books of various dynasties and the modern clinical applications to probe into the composition, plant species, processing, dosage, decocting method, and indications of Danggui Sinitang, aiming to provide a reference for the development and clinical application of this classic formula. The review of the records showed that there were a variety of records of Danggui Sinitang with different composition, and the composition of this formula listed in the Treatise on Cold Damage has a significant impact on later generations and has been used by medical practitioners throughout history. Although the dosage of some drugs decreased during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the medical practitioners continued to use the original formula. In terms of processing, although there were slight changes in the processing of Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Paeoniae Radix Alba, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and Tetrapanacis Medulla, the original processing method was inherited. In terms of indications, Danggui Sinitang was designed to treat cold reversal due to blood deficiency and dysentery. Furthermore, it was used to treat headache, convulsive disease, infantile convulsion, and private part adduction in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Nowadays, this formula is mostly used to treat diabetes peripheral neuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, dysmenorrhea, Raynaud's disease and other diseases. In terms of precautions, ancient physicians believed that Danggui Sinitang should not be taken by pregnant women and should only be used for limb chills caused by blood deficiency and cold coagulation. For limb chills caused by other reasons, this formula should not be used indiscriminately. Modern research has not reported any serious adverse reactions related to this formula. Danggui Sinitang has a definite therapeutic effect. In subsequent research and development, quality control standards of Danggui Sinitang should be established while its safety is ensured, and the related preparations should be developed and applied.
